Pile 01.

"This will be my last confession: "I love you" never felt like any blessing, whispering like it's a secret only to condemn the one who hears it with a heavy heart."

— Florence Welch, from Heavy in Your Arms.

There is absolutely no doubt that this pile has gone through a lot in their lives, or perhaps during this period of your life. However, in this present moment — I am sensing that a lot of you have decided it's time to move on from the hurt that has been inflicted upon you through all this time. While for others in this pile might still be drowning in their suffering, feeling lost without hope. Clinging and scratching desperately at a surface that no longer does them good. Regardless of what your current situation is out of those two, I promise you that everything will be okay in the end. In fact, everything will work out according to your desires in the future. So, remember that your hard work, or even minimal work will not be futile. Whatever you do will push yourself into a better place. Therefore, if you have been thinking of something for the sake of your own peace, do it. Don't hold back, especially if it's something you desire from the bottom of your heart.

Of course, I understand that it's hard. It will always be easier said than done, right? But, think about this — ask yourself these questions whenever you have time for a brief introspection. Would your future self be grateful for the fact you stayed or the fact you left your current situation? Would your future self be grateful for the fact you took that risk or if you left it be? Would your future self be disappointed if you let yourself drown in misery or would they be happy you left your comfort zone in order to seek a sense of tranquility within? Even if you don't look too deeply into these questions, it's possible you might have answered unknowingly while reading.

Additional details.

Light at the end of the tunnel, a star in the night sky. Eclipses, the moonshine. White roses, lotuses, lilies. Fairy tales, stories of fiction, another life in imagination. The depths of the ocean, the waves of the waters, the sunset's reflection on the waves. Heartfelt hugs, the embrace of someone, gentle caresses.

Pile 02.

"You know you are in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams."

— Dr. Seuss.

How exciting! In this period of your life, love will be entering your life — calmly like the breeze of the wind, or similar to a passionate pursuit sweeping you off your feet. This love could be romantic, platonic or even familial. Whatever it is, this person will be someone who feels like your dream person down to their personality and even appearance. For instance, do you desire a romantic partner who has a rather cheerful demeanor who cares for you with their entire heart? If so, it's likely that you will meet someone exactly like that, or someone who resembles your ideal. The same for platonic and familial relations. Maybe you would have liked for your family members to be more understanding towards you? Or that you desire a friend who doesn't talk behind your back whenever you leave? What you desire will happen, especially in the area of love for this period of your life.

However, let's remember that love comes in all shapes and forms. And that sometimes what you want isn't what is meant for you in this exact moment. Therefore, try your best not to be disappointed if the specific type of love you were manifesting or desiring in your life didn't come towards you. Fortunately though, for most of you, if not all, within this pile — will experience a satisfactory result, so keep your head up high!

Additional details.

Laughter, hangouts at the park or parking lot. Cheers, clinking of glasses, celebrations. Swimming, floating on the water's surface, submerged into the waters. Feeling relaxed, sleepy. March, November — Spring or Autumn. Manifestations. The Universe, Gods. Beliefs, prayers. Candles.

Pile 03.

"But how could you live and have no story to tell?"

— Fyodor Dostoevsky.

You have been working hard, haven't you? Fighting against what you have been shown in the present moment. Perhaps feeling stressed at the lack of achievements and results surrounding you, although you did whatever you could at that time with the knowledge you knew then. A lack of motivation and being burnt out consumes you, but there's a fire within some of you who won't allow you guys to back down. There's voices in your head screaming at you to continue, to keep going — deathly afraid that you will fail, fall behind or completely turn away from your own goals. How stressful, don't you think? A neverending nightmare of nerves, yet a feeling of adrenaline washes over you every now and then.

For the people within this pile, whether or not you agree with the paragraph above — you will have a wonderful amount of luck either within academics, career or both. There will a high chance of success in these areas. For instance, the grades you desired will come true or your business will flourish wonderfully. Whatever effort you put out into the world will not be futile. Therefore, have complete belief in yourself and storm into the world with an air of confidence.

However, for the more unhealthy people within this pile — those who overwork themselves to the bone, the people who are workaholics, and so on, it's time to realize that it's okay to take care of yourself when it's needed. It's okay to relax your shoulders, sit down and do something you like instead of working. It's okay to take breaks when necessary. While work and academics are both important, so is your well-being. Please always keep that in mind, even when it gets hard to believe.

Additional details.

Workbooks, worksheets, folders. Scribbled papers, messy handwriting, doodles. Stickmen, question marks, drawings. Exams, tests, presentations. Stable income, silver jewelry. A rocky road, ups and downs. Feeling exhausted, but not giving up. Fictional novels, fantasy characters, a second home. Imagination, dreams. Fishing. Goldfish, jellyfish, eel, lobsters.

Pile 04.

Tell me every terrible thing you did, and let me love you anyway.

— Edgar Allen Poe.

“Am I loved?” is a question that you might have come across quite often within your own mind. You might have answered “of course, but I don't love myself.” Others might answer, “I don't feel loved. However, I know my worth.” Possibly some of you within this pile feels like you are not loved by those around you and that you are unable to wholeheartedly love yourself as well. You have gone through your days without feeling your need for love be fulfilled. And I'm sure that times when all your grief comes at you in waves, it is haunting. It is painful, it stabs you in the heart. And you feel so incomplete, so empty, so lacking. You feel like something is missing, and it leaves behind a devastating ache within.

That's why, in this energy check-up reading — you are being asked to prioritize yourself. This is a time to focus on yourself through fulfilling your needs, finding love within and outside of yourself, introspection, and more. Teach yourself how you can find joy with your own company, instead of becoming dependent on the thoughts and feelings of those around you. Place yourself first, and if that's too much — place yourself in the top three based on importance. So pile four, don't lead yourself to destruction. Find balance in order to feel peace.

Additional details.

Lilies, specifically the spider lily of death. Reincarnation, shedding of oneself, metamorphosis. Butterflies in general, or purple ones. Scribbles, messy calligraphy, journaling, ink stains. Frenzied nights, the moonlight shining into a room. Fireplace, candle lit nights.

Hoodoo divination practices

Venturing into the mystical realm of divination, the ancient art of peering into the future, reveals a diverse array of practices deeply ingrained in various cultures. It's high time, particularly for the Black community, to acquaint themselves with the unique divination methods intrinsic to Hoodoo.

First and foremost, it's vital to dispel the common misconception—Tarot is not a native element of Hoodoo. While incorporating Tarot into Hoodoo practices isn't inherently wrong, recognizing its newness to the tradition is crucial. Hoodoo, grounded in resourcefulness, thrives on utilizing what's at hand. Traditional Hoodoo divination paints a vibrant picture, involving practices such as water scrying, star gazing, dreams, visions, psychometry, conversations, and bibliomancy.

These practices aren't confined to rituals; they seamlessly weave into the fabric of everyday life for Black individuals. The prophetic nature of the community fosters an innate knowing that serves as a guiding force—a unique form of divination.

However, the dark era of slavery deprived practitioners of access to various tools later integrated into the Hoodoo system. As the tradition evolved, native tools emerged, including cartomancy, dice, dominoes, bone throwing, and automatic writing. Mastering a divination form native to the Hoodoo lineage is more than a choice; it's a pivotal step towards becoming a proficient practitioner.

Importantly, Hoodoos are advised against heavy reliance on tools. Instead, tools serve as confirmations, with the primary goal being the mastery of clairvoyant abilities as a prophet and psychic. This mastery stems from self-awareness, unwavering focus, and the ongoing journey toward self-mastery.

List of Hoodoo Divination Practices:

Water Scrying

Star Gazing

Dreams

Visions

Psychometry

Conversations

Bibliomancy

Cartomancy

Dice

Dominoes

Bone Throwing

In delving into Hoodoo divination, you'll find a connection that feels innate, paving the way for mastery and the ability to guide others.

Is bibliomancy considered witchcraft in the catholic church? I know a lot of protestants do it, but it doesn't really seem like a great way to engage with the text.

Bibliomancy is not permitted.

I’ll be completely honest, I am not too familiar with what bibliomancy entails. I know it’s considered a form of divination which is a no-no but I am not actually sure how it’s practiced.

General Message - (Pick a Pile):

~ ♬ ~ ♬ ~ ♬ ~

Take what resonates and leave what doesn't ♡

- Pile 1 ♬: The butterfly

Open yourself, let yourself explore the doors of possibilities when it comes to your life, career, practice etc. Do not let anybody control you or tell you what your destiny is. As you thread forward, learn to make your own choices, express yourself and be comfortable in your own skin. People will come and go but remember that you are with your own self forever, you want to make the best choices that benefit you in the long run and you want to do it with a clear head after careful thinking. Mistakes will be made but remember to learn from them and do not dwell on the past. You choose your own destiny.

Channeled song and more: beach, ducks, fluffly pillows, 444, snakes, red wine in a glass cup, green car, silver ring on a white table

- Pile 2 ♬: Gentle hands

For my pile 2s, I encourage to go on a journey of self discovery and stop trying to fit into what you are simply not. Why do you try to be like others around you? You need to embrace your own uniqueness and your own power. You don't need to be like someone just because you look up to them or you think they will like you better. If they do not like you for who you are then they are simply not worth your time. Find your own thing, hobby, sense of style, something you actually enjoy doing. Not something you took from someone. Enjoy being yourself and who you are, embrace it.

Channeled song and more: Frogs, rose scented candles, white candles, birthdays, Lavender, eggs, floaties, slippers, wrist-bands, hats

- Pile 3 ♬: The scorpion

Learn to leave out the bad and welcome the good. For my pile 3s, you must learn to cut out toxic people and things that don't serve you at all. If it does not benefit you then it does not deserve to share the same space as you, you know your worth and you should prioritize your well being over things that don't serve you. A lot of you might feel guilty about cutting out people from your life due to having shared many emotional memories with them, despite that the hurt they have done to you won't just dissipate into thin air. It is okay to reminisce the good times but, you will also end up reminiscing the bad and your view of that person will already have changed by then. You need to learn when to just let it go. Move forward and leave the baggage behind. Free yourself.

Channeled song and more: Ballet, boats, silver spoon, empty sink, picnic baskets, white pens

Intro to Bibliomancy

Bibliomancy is simply a divination method where one uses books to get answers to questions. Any book will do, so would any library shelf. The process is simple. Focus on a question, pick a book, open to random page and read the words where your finger lands. The process can start with a library where you pick a random shelf to select a book. The book choice can be intentional and not just random. From experience, there are about three good choices to use: bibliomancy books, like The Literary Book of Answers, dictionaries, and bibles.

The Literary Book of Answers and others like it, are setup with short phrases or sentences per page to provide clear answers. Dictionaries are fun for the large amount of word possibilities one can get for an answer. The average bible is so full of text to add interesting possibilities for answers as well. The best part of bibliomancy is how little effort it takes to learn the practice.

Bibliomancy

Today i did some bibliomancy (opened my bible to a random page, close my eyes, and run my finger down the page until i feel like stopping/my intuition tells me to stop.)

This was the verse I got, and I nearly teared up, it made me remember Jesus is truly by my side through it all.

💎 PICK 📓 A 📓 CARD 💎

Close your eyes. Breathe deep. Open your mind to the peaceful dark and quiet within. Let it become a library of text, glittering letters in the dark, twinkling like stars. See words spark into life. Follow their sinuous trails and see the message before you in that glittering sea of ink and paper. Watch it meld into the recesses of your mindscape. Then pick a card from the Diviner Definitions by Michael Anthony of the Diviner Life.

Will you pick left, center, or right?

If you need more time to find your center and that spark of light within the infinite possibility of the blank and darkened mind, take that time. Find that space within you where new language bursts forth from the depths of your inner library. Let it open and expand and create new worlds of meaning to explore.

How does that feel? I hope it allows you to step into the future with curiosity but also peace.

Now pick a card (if you want) and read its message in the reveal.

Let me know how it resonates, and share the post with those who might benefit from some inner wisdom.

If you need a more in-depth reading, schedule one with me. And if you want to divine with depth and insight, enroll in my semester of tarot, which runs January 13–April 8.

Hello!🐸 #133 (nw if taken already or no time/energy, thank you regardless <3)

Hi! Thank you for coming by! I'm happy to give you a reading c: You have "Sketch for a Figure in Open Air (to the left)" (1886).

Reading:

I'm focusing on the obscured face here as that has the most importance to me. Something about it relates to identity and personhood. What it means to be you, or how you are presenting yourself to the world, like that. I would not put it as confusion so much as there is a distance present, whether that is intentional or not. I'm uncertain of what it means for you though. Otherwise, looking at the rest of the piece gives me a sense of blending in. Something along the lines of "you are free to be you as long as you feel to but--" and the but might be outside expectations placed upon you. Overall, this relates to you as you are. Who are you, how you are perceived (and perceive yourself), and freedom. I think if you take a look, you might see something else too.
