#my tools: rumi oracle

[khajiit-reads]

Hello! You can do whatever you need to reading wise for this inquiry, whatever would feel right:

I recently tapped into a aspect of myself that is tied to darkness as well as met my guardian.

My goal is to reach a 'home' of sorts tied to my spirit but not necessarily a headspace, because I don't feel the safest doing that given current emotions to current events..

That aside, is there any guidance you can offer to reach this space, as well as how to make sure I don't hurt any companions that are there? Confidence is definitely a issue I know, but this is my first experience with this level of power and I don't want to hurt anyone in spirit..

Well met, internet traveler!

For this reading, I'll be using Rumi Oracle (Safaa, she/he/they/xe) by Alana Fairchild and Rassoul, based off the poems by, well, Rumi!

We have Commitment, The Right Choice, and The Angel Razbar.

Commitment speaks about the inextinguishable flame, that of desire and passion. It asks you to be present and commit to your goals in the ways you can, that there is a way forward that you can figure it out.

The Right Choice brings a message of "Hey, you've made the right choice. Pursue it now." It's reassuring that you're on the right path and doing the right thing.

The Angel Razbar is about "divine contribution". The giving, the providing. It acknowledges you may not be able to, in which you can provide peace upon yourself and others.

As for how this all links into how to reach this space? The Right Choice implies you already know, I'm just not aware of what that is. Commitment asks you to be consistent with pursuing this thing, and Angel Razbar sees that you need peace in order to achieve and succeed.

The Right Choice could also be saying that you're not going to hurt anybody. This isn't a dangerous path that throws swords and hammers. Trust in yourself that you're doing just fine, that you're going to be okay.

Trusting yourself is a core part of what's being asked here, I think. Be present, yes. Be peaceful, yes. But trust yourself above all else that even if you get yourself into trouble, you can get your way Out of it.

I hope this helps, it feels very... like I'm missing a core piece of the puzzle here which limits my ability to help.

(Friday, January 01, 2025)

Dream interpretation first, as always.

I was friends with this family who ran this restaurant. For the first half that I remember, I was sulky and upset for having been scared and tormented by someone else entirely. But the rest, I was trying desperately to save the matriarch from a god-given illness, by performing a ritual and pleading with the gods. I woke up before I succeeded.

I... don't know what this means per se. I can make a few solid guesses, that the former part is due to the haunting I'm enduring. But the part about the god-given illness? I... really don't know.

— ☆ —

My new tools arrived today! Safaa (Rumi oracle), Aileas (Imbolc oracle), Bao (Mahjong), and Lilian (Sibilla oracle). I've done some test readings with them today, and also did some with Nadia (G-Witch).

I made sure to thank Hermaeus Mora for all of this. As always, I deeply appreciate the work It puts in for me and this part of my practice that I am utterly Feral about.

I opened some free reading slots for Nadia/G-Witch. Quite a few people took up slots which I'm really happy about, but I feel a bit bad I can't do it all same-day delivery, but then again, I need to be kinder to myself and not be a little butt to myself. I think as of writing this I'm done for the night, I'm physically tired and maybe a bit spiritually tired? I dunno, I'm not very good at listening to myself, but Hermaeus Mora and Lucifer both are asking me to at least take a break before returning to it. So I will. I'll heed them, maybe eat some dessert or something. Watch some stuff.

I am proud of myself for saying "Thank you for your patience!" instead of "Sorry for the wait!" on my reading posts end blurb. I know it's small, but it's kind language like that that I deserve.

I did some personal Mahjong readings and plan on roping some friends into receiving some. If I wasn't so shy I'd reach out and ask a mutual or two if they want some, at least the mutuals I properly interact with.

I also made a taglist for this blog, visible from here. I'll update it daily as I need to. I like having taglists. It's something that used to be more popular on Tumblr back in the early 2010s of its life, when I used it the first time, and I haven't quite let go of that aspect.

I wanna write some TES related posts or queue more stuff up for that blog, but I dunno what to do. Maybe "worship" posts. How to worship them, with a section on subtle worship. I got the idea from someone else, but I don't know how many ideas I'll have for actually worship, despite doing it every day of my life.

I just feel very strongly about TES. I have a post in queue about Azurah's triple aspect/triple form as Human, Mer, and Khajiit and how it looks like the depiction of the Triple Goddess and what that can mean for Her worship; and another about Clavicus Vile likely being based somewhat off of the Christian idea of Lucifer.

TES means a lot to me. The Gods in it mean a lot to me. I would give up so much for them, but they would never ask me to do anything like that. Well. to an extreme, I mean. They do ask me to give stuff up to them, just nothing... "so much".

I should work on finishing Clavicus Vile's quick start so I can post it. I don't have to worry about Akatosh's, but Meridia's day is the 13th, and Haki's day is coming up on the 24th. I know I can churn these out at the speed of light if I just focus, but with ADHD, it doesn't always happen, lol. Maybe I'm being too hard on myself...

Speaking of the 13th, I need to... focus more on the actual cleansing rituals and everything. I know everyone (my spirit guides) is telling me to chill, to not speedrun it, but... I. y'know. I like to get things done. I don't like having a to-do list.

And also, as an aside, I added something to my parents list for myself for groceries (that I can use otherwise) and turns out it's not at the store so it has to be ordered online. Which is really good I did that, because otherwise I wouldn't have been able to find it when I needed it for my spells, which I really wanna do The Big Shadow Realm One on the new moon this month. To start the year with January's new year energy and the energy of the new moon. I also don't want to wait to perform it even longer.

There's really not much else for me to say today. No spellwork done or anything, just messing with decks, as ya do. So... well, it's not goodnight, I won't be in bed for another hot minute, but g'night.

search

i found this tiny cafe in a tony but not obvious part of san francisco, not far from the waterfront bathed in the air of venture capital. i remember getting coffee and overhearing business deals from white and asian men speaking in coded, buzzy tongues. they were clothed in the sacred tech garment: checked collar shirts and khakis — a persian word meaning dust-colored, as in where we came from, as in where we’ll all return. they do not realize this. i had to google it. to seek out a selfless discipline, i turned to medieval mystics who had no chance of facebook addictions and other digital distractions. it’s easy, they say, just give yourself up to god, find a patron or noble family, go to the hearts of the religious community and take up the monastic. do nothing else. so i continued to sit in this tony cafe, which was the heart of some community or other, with the coffee i paid for with my copy-and-paste job, sketching out a timeline about a fundraiser for my music that will let me leave the daily grind for more sacred grounds. i soon grew tired of planning, and, to relax, pulled out the rumi book i hang my soul on. “throw away your handful of sugar that you may become a sugar field,” rumi says through a translator named coleman barks that, i would later find out, doesn’t actually speak persian. (i had to google that too.) but i think the meaning remains in tact. i can’t really be sure. back in berkeley i lived across from a christian chapel that was convered into a buddhist monastery in the ‘90s. as any good tech worker should be, i was tempted to chuck my macbook into the dumpster, don a saffron robe and join them forever. until the head of the monastery, a friendly guy from the midwest who changed his name to something much less midwest-sounding, showed me his dslr and extolled the wonders of the adobe creative cloud. there was both a sigh of relief and one of disappointment that i could still keep my macbook by my side should i choose a life of godly devotion. i’ve come to accept i cannot unwire myself from the miraculous tools of good and evil we created, and i stare into the digital pocket mirror, a crystal ball oracle that can whisper our collective secrets straight back into our search results that appear only through my summoning. i suppose that’s me praying, giving myself up to god, taking up the monastic life, doing nothing else.

Curious About Drinking Ayahuasca? Read This First!

Curious about ayahuasca?

With a name that literally means “the vine of death,” this Amazonian brew is not a simple recreational psychedelic trip, so be warned about that reality from the start. Although ayahuasca does induce vivid and colorful visions that can be breathtakingly beautiful and lead to incredibly meaningful insights, it’s also often an intense experience, not just mentally, but physically as well.

I remember one particular ayahuasca ceremony about six years ago in the jungle, just outside of the Amazonian metropolis of Iquitos, Peru, when my stomach was churning like a washing machine as my mind dipped in and out of dark memories that I hadn’t thought about in years.

“I have something inside my gut that is killing me,” I told Luis, the indigenous curandero whose house in the jungle I had been living in for a couple of weeks.

“Yes,” he replied, “you do.”

“But when you fix this,” he continued, tapping at his temple to indicate what was going on in my head, “that will be fixed also.”

The truth is that ayahuasca is a medicine, and it just might be the most potent one on earth for some of humanity’s most pressing crisis situations.

It is exactly this phenomena that is driving its current worldwide popularity, as western medicine fails countless numbers of people and the entire western way of life wreaks havoc on both the natural and psycho-social landscape that we live in. Despite the material comfort that modern living supposedly provides, our spiritual angst, interpersonal conflict and environmental impact are all at an all-time high. Mental health is deteriorating fast around the globe as growing occurrences of stress and lifestyle related diseases cripple humanity.

“Ayahuasca can help people overcome depression, anxiety, PTSD, fear of death, addiction and drug abuse, and many other conditions, even in people for whom evidence-based psychotherapies have not been successful,” explained Rick Doblin, Ph.D, founder and executive director of the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS), a California based non-profit organization that has been pioneering research into the therapeutic potential of ayahuasca and other psychedelic substances, along with advocating for their legality and integration into the western health care system.

“Though for some, it may be heresy, I believe ayahuasca is a tool, similar to LSD, psilocybin, mescaline and ibogaine, that can be beneficially used in spiritual or therapeutic contexts,” Doblin affirmed.

The few clinical studies done on ayahuasca have been, in fact, quite remarkable.

A MAPS sponsored long-term study on ayahuasca’s effect on addiction and dependence reported “positive and lasting changes” in every single participant involved, while a recent Brazilian study found the Amazonian medicine alleviated depression almost instantly—even among those who had tried conventional anti-depressants to no avail.

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

Ayahuasca: What is it?

Scientifically speaking, ayahuasca is a concoction that utilizes the monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) properties of a specific Amazon rainforest vine known as Banisteriopsis caapi (ayahuasca itself) to allow the potent hallucinogen dimethyltryptamine (DMT), found in a variety of rainforest plants like Psychotria viridis (chacruna), to become active in your brain. The two plants are brewed together for hours, or even days, and the resulting thick bitter brew usually takes about an hour after ingestion to start doing its thing.

But ayahuasca is more than just chemical soup.

Much like marijuana, a plant that co-evolved with ancient Himalayan civilizations, ayahuasca is designed explicitly for human use, a kind of Amazonian natural technology that is the result of close human-vegetable relationships, similar to cultivated food plants.

The fact that ayahuasca contains DMT, a complex psychoactive compound, which also happens to be found naturally in the human brain and spinal cord, possibly holding the key to human consciousness, can only really be explained by this process of co-evolution—just as how the cannabinoids found in marijuana bind to an already existing human endocannabinoid system and have extensive, diverse healing powers.

In the Amazonian rainforest, which has always been densely inhabited and is much more a cultivated garden than a savage wilderness, ayahuasca is considered to be sacred and divine—a direct link between the physical and the spiritual worlds.

In other words, ayahuasca is here to help humanity solve the heavy issues that face us right now, as our globalized civilization connects the entire world. More than just perfect timing, the emergence of a natural medicine that is perfectly poised to deal with our dilemmas right where they are rooted—in our own consciousness—could be considered proof of the deeper underlying unity and interconnectivity of all things.

Yes, ayahuasca is Avatar, but for real.

Cooking up the medicine in the jungle.

What Ayahuasca is Not “There are three things to learn” my Peruvian curandero Luis told me one night after a particularly powerful ceremony, “And the first of these is patience.”

Ayahuasca is not going to heal all of your ills or solve all of your problems. You are.

What ayahuasca is going to do is show you, live and in technicolor, exactly how things like your ego, fear and stress make you sick or unhappy, proving to you on an intensely visceral level just how real the mind-body connection can be.

“Be careful about expectations of a miracle cure and/or of having a spiritual epiphany that provides clarity and direction for the entire rest of one’s life,” advised Rick Doblin. “While these outcomes can sometimes occur, expecting that they will definitely occur can make them less likely to actually occur since there could be resistance or disappointment with what actually occurs.”

To me, it helps to think of ayahuasca as a diagnostic tool or even an oracle, not a panacea.

You will have the opportunity to heal yourself by applying what you have learned during the ayahuasca experience after it is over. This is something even more extraordinary than a magic bullet and the opposite of the passive model of Western medicine where you simply pop pills and wait for the effect. Ayahuasca is an active medicine, meaning you have to participate fully in the healing process, making concrete changes in your life based on what you learn in the ceremony.

This why so many people refer to it as a “teacher” plant.

Pouring off the water to boil down the ayahuasca.

Shamanic Traditions and the Globalized Ayahuasca Movement

“The second thing to learn,” said Luis that night under the Amazonian star filled sky as the ayahuasca after-effects traced iridescent rainbow patterns through the shadows, “is to see from your heart instead of your head.”

As a freelance writer who spends as much time as possible in South America, I have been fortunate to have been able to drink ayahuasca in a variety of different contexts over the last decade or so. I have spent lots of time in the verdant river waterways of the Peruvian upper Amazon near the fascinating jungle city of Iquitos, where ayahuasca tourism is booming and both shamans and charlatans seem to lurk at every corner, as well as in off-the-beaten track locales like the Alto Putumayo of Colombia, where strong yage (ayahuasca) traditions involve spellbinding Andean music under the rainforest covered backside of the second highest mountain range in the world.

I have also drunk the brew with the Brazilian Santo Daime church, where everyone shows up in crisp white digs and sings Portuguese hymns passed down through generations, many as absolutely enchanting and intoxicating as the best of Rumi’s poetry. In Bogota, a mile-high Manhattan-style city of over 10 million people where I like to base myself when not in the jungle, I down the medicine with the Colombian urban creative class, including artists, musicians, activists and bohemians who bring in Taitas (shamans) from the Putumayo area on a regular basis and organize as groups of friends through various Facebook pages.

What I have learned is that there’s not one “right” way to drink the medicine. And don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

There are, however, some very wrong ways to go about it in my opinion, and that is mostly due to the commercialization that is taking place around ayahuasca. There’s plenty of people charging way too much for ayahuasca ceremonies, especially in places like Iquitos itself where expensive retreat centers compete with each other for the tourist dollar. While not bad people, many of these folks have much less experience than a traditional indigenous ayahuascero, and this has a negative effect on locals who watch their own culture being sold by foreigners at exorbitant prices while they remain in poverty.

Worse, unscrupulous charlatans will often try to convince you that you need their protection, when in fact they are the ones putting you in danger. With their mind on the money—something that traditionally is not mixed with indigenous spiritual practices and is kept out of the newer church based practices like Santo Daime as well—safety and sincerity are forgotten quickly.

Sadly, tales of abuse and even death surrounding ayahuasca are becoming far too common.

“Be sure  that there are protections in place against sexual abuse and other forms of taking advantage,” warned Doblin of MAPS. “Surrendering to the ayahuasca experience of necessity involves an inner focus that can make one vulnerable to external energies.”

And it is this inner focus, where we can really dig deep into our own hearts and start to deal with negative emotions that may even have been normalized in us by society that catalyzes the real healing potential of ayahuasca. Beyond rituals and rules, all of which may have their traditional importance in providing space for this inner work, it is the work itself that is the core of the shamanic ayahuasca experience.

A real shaman uses ayahuasca as a tool to reach an optimal state of mental and physical health, and is then able to explain the process and guide others on this path to inner peace. Only with the hard work of the practitioner can one overcome negative emotions like hate and anger and instead develop love and compassion for the entire world. Shamans aren’t imbued with supernatural powers, and they don’t cast spells or sing songs that are going to do the work for you. That type of wishful thinking can actually lead to dependence and abuse.

Just like with ayahuasca itself, a shaman is not going to heal you, you are going to heal yourself. Beware of anyone or any place that makes claims to the contrary.

Deep Healing: Integrating the Ayahuasca Experience “The last thing to learn, and the hardest one of them all” continued Luis, “is to see reality for what it really is.”

When the profound insights learned during the ayahuasca ceremony are applied to your life, real healing begins to blossom like a flower. In the Peruvian Amazon, this time to integrate and reflect upon the ceremony is done through a process known as the dieta, where you spend a week or so in isolation in a tambo hut in the jungle after a ceremony “dieting” with a particular plant . During this time, you go through a process of deep introspection, much like a Vippassana meditation retreat or a Native American vision quest where the issues that came up during the ayahuasca ceremony can be deeply explored and changes integrated into your life.

“Ideally, the context would be one that is led by somebody experienced with their own personal use of ayahuasca, that the providers are more interested in spirituality/healing than in making money, that there will be people speaking your own language, and that the context focuses not just on the experience itself but also on the process of long-term integration that transforms profound experiences into enduring personal growth,” Doblin shared, emphasizing the fact that true healing will ultimately come from within.

While this may sound disheartening to those who feel they need real help, my experience has been that learning how we ourselves wield much control over our own suffering is in fact the most empowering skill we can master.

Ayahuasca, used as a tool. alongside a commitment to spiritual growth, has helped me transform my life in many ways. Where there was once frustration and despair, there is now gratitude and a firm belief in the bright future of humanity. My view of reality has been changed permanently, and that is where the deep healing lies.

Ayahuasca is true medicine for troubled times, a powerful gift straight from the heart of Mother Earth to help us realize change right now, exactly when its needed most.  Its very existence is proof that nature does in fact have our back, more-so, that the entire cosmos is conspiring with us as we evolve together as one.

That, in itself, is cause for celebration.

Resources For Those Thinking of Drinking Ayahuasca Much of the info about ayahuasca on the web is published by centers motivated to earn your business or vendors hawking products. Alternatively, these unbiased resources will educate you more about this truly magical medicine and its incredible potential to change the world.

Turdas, Morning Star 02, 2025

(Thursday, January 02, 2025) Holidays: Scour Day

First up, I'm gonna discuss my dream, as will be the standard going from now on. My dreams quickly faded from me so there's not much to say.

I had someone send me an ask about Clavicus Vile, but I didn't quite get around to answering it before I woke up. I suppose this could be a call to talk to Them some more. It's also possibly a "Hey, you're gonna get an ask" thing, because it could have been my prophetic bullshit.

In another dream, I had to rush into an art class in this repeating high school setting, and I made some new friends. I could be being asked by my dreams to make some new friends at this time.

I had another adventure dream, but it's already completely vanished from memory.

And in yet another dream, I broke my protection amulet. I don't know how, but I remember hearing it snap and looking down at the broken amulet. This is most likely a manifestation of my anxiety about doing just that than a bad omen, considering everything. (It's later in the day, and I did break my amulet. I had an extra stick picked out just for this but it's still... yeah. I assume it broke when I was carrying down my laundry. I talk more about it below.)

I took a nap today, and I had another dream. I was on a journey in a familiar dream-town, my dreams use recurring location, and it was snowing again.

In the same town, in another dream, it was Summer. I had to travel along the road on hands and knees, before making it to the zoo. The polar bears weren't okay, nor were these Shaymin looking creatures. I fixed the polar bear enclosure with great difficulty. I should check to see if Shaymin wants anything from me because I wasn't thinking of Shaymin or anything lately and dreamt of Them needing some assistance. Not that Shaymin will need assistance, I'm just a mortal, but more that this is Their way of getting my attention.

— ☆ —

Happy Scour Day! Today is a day of cleaning so I tidied up my desk and my altars. I also did my laundry today which I was really putting off lol. I hate doing laundry.

Tomorrow, my ordered items should arrive, which makes me happy. That should be the Rumi Oracle (thanks to my QPP who sent me money for that for Yule), Sibilla Oracle (a standard card set like Lenormand/Kipper, because I need to collect all of these I can for the special interest), Seasons of the Witch: Imbolc Oracle, and a Mahjong set (which is also for divination).

The Skyrim tarot did arrive today! I got bonked immediately with a "You know you're being haunted, right?" Which yes I am well aware. I appreciate the notice, though, and the reassurance that yes, this is a haunting.

My decks all talked to each other about the haunting to catch Keizaalhahnufiik up to speed at my request, because I didn't want to explain the haunting again. I'm looking forward to properly using this deck as well, and getting to know Keizaal and how They speak and communicate. I know they enjoy xeir new name, which is Dovahzul for Skyrim Dream Mirror directly, because I felt like it was a fitting name.

I really wish I could handle this haunting peacefully. When it comes to spirits I like to remember that sometimes, they're acting for a reason, and are not completely and utterly malefic. But every attempt to talk to this spirit has failed, so I must assume the worst and do my worst for my own safety at this point, especially considering part of the haunting is enduring accidents which could easily scale up and become worse than the minor inconveniences they are now.

Anyways, I think I'm done bitching about the haunting all the time. I'm working on it. I'll have it resolved soon enough.

I got my devotional challenge for yesterday and today done, because I forgot to do it yesterday, so I made up for it today. I worry my poems are a bit... not great, but I don't think the gods care. All they care about is that I did it at all.

I did this weeks witchquest, which was logging everything you have tool and ingredient wise. It didn't take me too long, i just went through my herb/spice cabinet, and I already had a list of my tools so I didn't need to do that part again. I thought it was a daily quest but upon further inspection and reading more clearly, it's a weekly quest thing. Should make it easier to do.

I've never done witchquest before, because I wasn't on Tumblr before (well technically my main is super old but I didn't even log in for years). So I'm excited to participate.

I'm mostly thinking about how I did break my amulet today. It's a bit sad, but not so sad that I think it's my gut trying to tell me something about it. It was most likely just an accident - I held my laundry basket up to it and it snapped, most likely is what happened. So I'm not devastated and/or in danger, I don't think.

I generally work on that these things break for a reason. In this case, because they can no longer do the job they're meant to do. Though, like I said, this was most likely an accident, so no job was really fully done.

I made this amulet to protect me from the haunting spirit. I made a new one as soon as I realized it broke. It should serve me well again. I'll be more careful this time.

I do notice to myself that when I cut my sticks, I thought to myself "I need a third". And then not even a week later, I need the third I cut. So I think this was gonna happen regardless. And I was prepared. So tomorrow, I'll go cut more stems, just to be ready in case it happens again. But I plan on being more careful this time.

I will return the broken stick to the rose bush tomorrow morning, as to thank and return to the earth. Maybe a bird can make use of it or something like that.

I got a lot of other stuff done. I worked a bit on Clavicus Vile's quick start which I hope to finish tomorrow. It just didn't want to come to me today. Tomorrow I also plan on doing a proper cleansing ritual. I also, today, got more "my deck overview posts" written down. They're in the queue for now on my readings blog. My spelltome blog actually has like 30+ posts in the queue, which will slowly but surely post over time. I keep adding new posts to it because I follow a lot of good witchcraft blogs, so that blog will be set for a while.

I'm turning devout-of-the-elder-scrolls into having more images and more of a slight "digital altar" feel, reblogging things that remind me of a specific guide. I got some borzoi art in there for Clavicus and Barbas.

This has been a long post, but I had a lot of thoughts today. To anybody who read the whole thing, thank you, and have a good day tomorrow.
