Hey there! ๐๐ผ
I figured that today would be the perfect time to explain what tarot is and a bit of the history behind it.
- Tarot is defined as any set of cards used in tarot games and in fortune telling. A standard deck of tarot cards has 78 cards and consists of two groups. The typical deck that tarot readers will start with is the Rider-Waite Smith deck. There is a story behind the traditional deck though that often goes untold. What happened was that in 1909, William Rider and Arthur Waite did not want to give credit to the illustrator of their deck named Pamela Smith, especially with her being a biracial, queer woman. It wasnโt until 1911, which was two years later that Rider and Waite re-released a copy of the Rider-Waite Smith deck to include Pamela. That just goes to show how prevalent discrimination was during that time. Way to go Pamela Smith for being an intersectional feminist!
- With that being said, let me discuss what the two groups that make up a tarot deck include:
โข The Major Arcana, which has 22 cards, follows the Foolโs story in what is said to be โThe Foolโs Journeyโ. The journey that the Fool takes symbolizes the steps we as humans take throughout our lives on the path to growth, evolution, and spiritual enlightenment.
โข The Minor Arcana, the second group of tarot cards, comprises 56 cards and is divided into four suits of 14 cards. These suits consist of Wands (Clubs), Cups (Hearts), Swords (Spades), and Pentacles (Diamonds). Each set also has 4 court cards and 10 numbered cards. The numbered cards go from Ace โ 10 for each suit in which numerology (the meaning of numbers) plays a part in their significance.
*What is something you learned about or from tarot recently? Please feel free to share in the comments!
Love,

Hey everyone! With every non-sticker purchase (clothing, journals, masks, home goods etc), you will receive a random sticker pack in my handmade cardstock envelopes (each one is different). The sticker pack shown is just an example, actual stickers may vary. Value $8-10. If thereโs a certain sticker you must have just let me know when you purchase! Thank you for all the support! I really appreciate you supporting my small business! ๐๐โค๏ธ๐ This sticker package will arrive separately. #grimoire #spellbook #bulletjournal #bujostickers #stickerartwork #witchartwork #horrortshirt #altgirl #pastelgoth #pentagram #pentacle #lgbtqwitch #bookofspells #crystalhealing #manifestation #dionfortune #kabbalah #astrology #witchesofinstagram (at Hollywood) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGL96dBHaja/?igshid=t19x4mynat2j

Car nous sommes celleux qui rรชvons d'autres choses le jour et dominons le monde la nuit. Car nous parlons le langage des plantes et des riviรจres. Car nous tirons force de nos plaisirs et cicatrices. Il y aura toujours un lieu pour nous retrouver. Que ce soit suspendu aux branches de l'arbre des sorciรจres. Ou assis devant les portes du royaume souterrain. . . . . . . . . #witchcraft #witches #pagans #malewitches #forestwitch #friendship #frenchwitches #forest #nature #trees #instawitch #gaywitch #lgbtqwitches #witchesofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CFsi7MVh1MuhPUdWRrUmsF49OoOp6xI4_jWhfY0/?igshid=ktxy1zucrbwg

My homegirl/coworker had brought this deck to work today. She handed it to me since I've mentioned how I've seen it around on IG from other tarot diviners I follow, and even though it wasn't in my line of thought, she insisted I borrowed it to get a feel for it. Honestly, I REALLY love this deck! Learning about the various images of African deities mixed with historical African American figures gave so much life to the cards. Not to mention, for those figures I didn't exactly know on my own, it was a pleasure enlightening myself about them through further research (so far, my favorite folklore I've learned about was Kalemeleme and the python). I also did a couple of readings to see how I connected with the deck, and the messages came about much clearer supported by the mythologies depicted. Shout out to Karen (I have her on IG, but not here), she's a real one! I'll definitely be getting this deck for myself in the near future ๐

Hello Everyone! Happy New Moon in Pisces โ๏ธ๐
-This moon cycle opens us up to new creative ideas and perspectives since there is a stellium in the sign of Pisces. A stellium indicates that there are three or more planets in a specific astrological sign. With the Sun, Moon, Venus, and Neptune all being in Pisces, right now is a great time to focus on turning your dreams into reality either by manifesting or setting a plan to create some smart goals.
โขThis new moon, I have made it a priority to listen to my body and my intuition by taking time to rest and recharge. When I feel myself becoming worn down, I take a break to listen to music, meditate, color, or do what I feel my soul needs. I cater to my inner child by going on Disney+ and watching some of my favorite shows from childhood like That's So Raven, that show always cheers me up!
What are some ways that you all relax and recharge? I hope this New Moon turns out to be everything you could have wished for! โจโ๏ธ๐
Love,
-Detroit Hippie Chick๐ฎ

For anyone who needs it. I watched this once and started crying halfway through and had to take 10 mins off of social media to cry my eyes out. I feel so fucking loved, and I hope you guys feel the same way.
I'm your brother from now on, alright? You got me, I'm always here for you! ๐
