hello, pile one! before i begin, i want to mention that this person may be unfamiliar to you. they have feelings for you and have been observing you from a distance. this individual is empathetic and perceptive, able to understand and respond to the emotions of others. they are courteous and possess emotional resilience, which could make them a valuable mentor or advisor. they feel a sense of exhilaration and urgency when it comes to you. they may have some idealized perceptions of you due to their imaginative nature. they express their affection in unique and unpredictable ways. it's possible that this person has not shown you any clear signs, but they are genuinely interested in you. they are playful and somewhat flirtatious, and they perceive you as someone with depth and mystery. it's likely that they are older and wiser than you, and they may share similar values. your admirer may come from a background where tradition and stability are highly valued. despite any uncertainty, they always notice you, even in a crowd. however, they are hesitant to express their feelings, fearing it may lead to tension or conflicts, especially if they are aware of other people's interest in you. they could be struggling with conflicting emotions or external pressures, making it challenging for them to open up fully. they might be in a phase of letting go of past experiences and focusing on personal growth and healing, possibly seeing you as the source of greater fulfillment that they seek

channeled poem for you from your secret admirer;

[stormy seas by j.střelou]

i would rather swim in

stormy seas with you,

than sail calm waters with

anyone else

hi, pile two! your secret admirer is quite different from the person in pile one. this person is calm and quiet, preferring the peace and quiet of solitude to loud gatherings. they're the type who likes to mull over their thoughts and feelings, perhaps even enjoy problem-solving and deep thinking. your admirer might come across as wise and mature, looking for meaningful connections with others. they might hold back from expressing their feelings or making themselves known because they're worried about being turned down or disappointed. they might even think that you're not interested in them. but deep down, they're just waiting for the right moment to approach you. they're constantly weighing the pros and cons, trying to figure out if it's the right time to make a move. they're honest, respectful, and understanding, always making sure to think things through before acting. if they do decide to make a move, they might do something small, like giving you a little gift or offering words of support. they're witty and straightforward in their communication, preferring to be honest and open rather than playing games. they're also dedicated to their goals, patient in their approach, and focused on what they want to achieve.

channeled poem for you from your secret admirer;

[by f. scott fitzgerald]

i can't describe how i feel

but it's not quite right

and it leaves me cold

hey, pile three! your secret admirer seems pretty content with their feelings, happy to admire you from a distance. their emotions towards you feel genuine and sincere. right now, they might be going through some self-reflection or awakening, possibly because of their feelings for you. they feel like expressing their admiration for you could help them grow personally. however, they're having a tough time expressing their feelings openly. it's not that they're not interested—it's more like they're held back by their own thoughts. they might be dealing with self-doubt, fear of rejection, or other barriers that stop them from making a move. they have a strong intuition and are very in tune with their emotions. they're waiting for the perfect moment to reveal their feelings, trusting their gut to guide them. they're cautious about taking risks and may strive for perfection. it seems like they're holding back because they want to protect themselves. they're not the type to open up easily and may have some fears about being vulnerable. but despite all this, they're bold and assertive. they're not afraid to go after what they want, and they might even be planning how to approach you.

channeled poem for you from your secret admirer;

[i hear the birds sing by ashnalikyan, narine]

when i look at the sun

or the moon,

and listen to the birds

in the air,

i can't help but think of you-

how you light up the dark

and the day,

how even the smell of you

make flowers bloom.

what mindset do you need to embrace?

I feel like i've been in a bad mindset lately and I felt called to do a collective pick a card to help us find a better mindset to be in. I chose peter steele for the pictures for you to choose from, you're welcome.

PILE ONE

you guys got the chariot reversed, so I feel like people who chose this pile are chronically in the mindset that they always need to be grinding and productive in order to feel worthy. You need to embrace the mindset that while you are in control and in charge of your life, sometimes its ok to take the backseat and chill out a bit. you dont have to constantly be doing something or pushing your goals along, allow yourself the freedom to relax.

PILE TWO

you guys have the lovers reversed, so the mindset you guys may have to embrace is that you dont need to depend on anyone else romantically or platonically. You might want to be in the mindset that no matter who you loose or become disconnected with, you will always be ok, because you alone are enough. You need to embrace that regardless of who is in your life and regardless of the love someone shows you, you inherently enough as you are.

PILE THREE

this pile got the judgement reversed, I think the mindset that you may need to have is that your past is not who you are. you need to stop condemning yourself so hard or judging yourself by past mistakes. you need to embrace the mindset that this is a new era, take the past and use it as a lesson and not as something you need to outlive.

PILE FOUR

I pulled the 8 of swords reversed for this pile, you guys need to actually reject a certain mindset that is holding you back. this pile may be in a helpless, victim mindset that is making you feel like you have no control in life. while yes, your situation is unique and may make things harder, being in the mindset that there is nothing you can do and that your hands are completely tied is a delusion that serves to hurt you.

My Portable In-Book Pendulum Board/Altar

I drew this all myself. Will probably color it in and ink the edges. But I’m happy with it! A nice trick for doing perfect circles is tracing a soup can!

Loki appreciation post (Norse Paganism)

I was having an emotional breakdown about something I’d rather not mention and the first thing I thought of doing was grabbing the pendulum and talking to Loki.

For context, I’m a Lokean in a spousal ship with the God of mischief. I triple checked everything and waited for a few weeks to research what I was getting into, as well as Loki’s mythology and history. I’ve never had a problem with Him.

Anyway, I began the conversation by explaining the situation as He listened. He was so understanding and gentle with me as I bawled my eyes out and said that He’d always be here for me when I need Him the most.

I’ve never had this relationship with any other deity. Yeah, He’s a trickster and a massive pain in the ass sometimes, but when something makes me cry, He acts so genuine and caring.

˚₊‧꒰ა ☆ ໒꒱ ‧₊˚ Hey there, pile one! It seems like this someone is feeling a tad green-eyed when they look at all you've accomplished. They're seeing you as this smart, practical, and mature individual who's got it going on. Your ability to stay cool under pressure. They might be seeing that as a threat to their own sense of self.

The negativity they're dishing out could be coming from some old baggage they're still lugging around. Maybe they've got some past grudges or envy that's bubbling up and landing squarely on you. This person might even be someone you used to be tight with.

Their hostility is more about their own inner struggles and insecurities than anything you've done. There might have been moments where they tried to knock you down a peg or two, projecting their own issues onto you in the process.

Sounds like they've got a bit of a knack for being overly critical and spreading rumours. It's tough dealing with someone like that, especially when they're aiming for your reputation and achievements just to soothe their own ego.

Negativity spreads like wildfire! Whether it's through the grapevine or online, it seems like they're on a mission to rain on your parade. Their obsession with you? It's not doing them any favours, and it might even be dragging you down a bit too.

˚₊‧꒰ა ☆ ໒꒱ ‧₊˚ Hey there, pile two! It seems like there's someone close to you who's been feeling some negative vibes lately. They might actually be part of your inner circle, someone you share a strong bond with.

It's like there's this weird tension brewing among your friends or acquaintances, and it's not the warm fuzzy kind. Jealousy or competition might be lurking beneath the surface, making someone feel a bit sour about your success or happiness. They might even feel threatened by your confidence and your knack for standing your ground.

Honestly, it's a bit disheartening. I've been in similar spots myself! This person might not be playing it straight with you, maybe even spinning a few fibs your way. And the worst part? They could be gossiping behind your back or pulling some sneaky moves to tarnish your rep.

Seems like they're not exactly thrilled about your financial success either. They see you as someone who's got it all, maybe a bit too easily, and it's eating away at them. By lashing out, spreading rumours or throwing shade your way to boost their own ego.

˚₊‧꒰ა ☆ ໒꒱ ‧₊˚ Hey there, pile three! It seems like there's someone in your family who's been feeling a bit off lately. They're actually part of your own flesh and blood, whether they're your sibling, cousin, or even an aunt or uncle.

It looks like envy or resentment might be creeping into their feelings towards you and your achievements. They might be feeling like you're not quite playing fair in your relationships, maybe focusing a bit too much on yourself, which is leaving them feeling a bit sour.

Your assertiveness and that amazing energy you bring to the table? Well, it might just be making them feel a tad threatened. Your confidence and success could be triggering a little case of rivalry or making them feel like they're living in your shadow, sparking some jealousy or insecurity.

They're likely someone you're pretty close to, maybe even someone you share a special bond with. They might be feeling a bit intimidated by your creative prowess. You know, seeing all those compliments roll in for your work while they're left wondering, "Hey, what about me?"

This person might be male or have some pretty masculine traits. They might be showing a bit of greed or ignorance in how they're acting towards you. Despite all that, they are someone who holds a significant place in your heart, someone you trust on a deep level.

Pendulum 101 informational post announcement

Post

Hey everyone, so we have a new (and first) post on our website about dowsing pendulums!

In this post you'll learn:

how to use a pendulum (for divination, finding lost items, blockages, using charts and the 4 basic answers it gives)

pendulum care (cleansing, bonding and why not leave it lying around)

materials properties (common crystals used for pendulums and metals and wood)

how to make a pendulum (general tip for alternative pendulum choices)

If you're interested, it's better to visit the web page, as there it is way easier to orientate yourself in. However if you do wanna stay on the site, you can read it further in this post. And if you're looking for spiritual and witchy content, stop by from time to time 💜 On the webpage there is a Library that will soon fill up, and it'll be easier to find things there in form of web pages rather than tumblr posts.

How to Use a Pendulum

This really depends on your beliefs. Some believe pendulum move on its own, or that a certain spirit is moving it. Others on the other hand believe that it is our own intuition that moves it - so that we are moving it through subtle moves of the fingers. Depending on where your beliefs lie, you may choose to either hold the end of the string/chain in between your index finger and thumb with your elbow on a solid surface, or hang it on something to make sure you’re not the one moving it.

If you would like to rather hang it, there are sites that sell stands for it, or some people like to DIY a pendulum jar/bottle - for that you basically grab a transparent jar and glue the pendulum chain to the middle of the lid, so that when you close it, the pendulum hangs freely in the middle of it. This ensures that no wind will tamper with it.

Some tech witches would probably also use some sort of an app or a website which randomly decides what the pendulum answers. Once again, this depends entirely on your beliefs, whether you believe in the accuracy of divination tools in electronics. Unfortunately I haven’t found a good website or an app that would simulate it well, but perhaps you’ll have better luck!

Now, when you first get a pendulum, other than cleansing it, you can also “calibrate” it. Either you can decide on how it should show each answer, or you can ask it to show you each. You can also ask it basic questions that you know the answer to to find out their meanings (and many people do that even after “calibrating” to check if everything fits). There are 4 basic moves of a pendulum:

Yes - usually either from front to back (like nodding your head), or side to side. As I mentioned before, you can also ask it to show you (“show me a yes”) and remember it or write it down somewhere.

No - once again, usually side to side (like shaking your head) or front to back.

Maybe - usually either clockwise or counter-clockwise. This often means that the answer to your question depends on different factors. Kind of like saying “yes if X, no if Y”. Sometimes certain spirits also like to say “maybe” a lot, in my experience it is a common thing amongst tricksters.

Don’t know / Can’t answer / Rephrase - once again, usually clockwise or counter-clockwise. Some pendulums actually merge “maybe” and “don’t know”. This means that either they do not want to tell you, or you asked a non-yes/no-question.

Another thing are charts - you can use a pendulum chart or board for questions that don’t have yes/no answers. And many also use a pendulum board that has the basic 4 motions on it as well! Super useful for forgetful people. There are many you can choose from, and you can also make your own. There are ones with a full on alphabet, so that it can give you custom answers. You can find many for example on Pinterest. It’s better to print them out, but there were many times I’ve simply opened one on my phone and held my pendulum over the screen.

There are also other ways of using your pendulum. It can be used to find a location that meets your specifications / where the object you’re looking for is located. That could be for example when you’ve lost something in your house, or when you want to look for an ingredient. For finding something local, you usually ask yes/no questions for each of the rooms (if it’s inside a house, this step would be skipped if you already know the room or if you’re in a larger area). Alternatively, you could hold your pendulum over a sketch of the layout of the building to figure out the room. Then, you would ask for the direction and the pendulum will point towards the object. Make sure you’re standing in the doorway, because otherwise you might be going forwards when the pendulum was actually pointing behind you. You do this multiple times, also throwing in some questions like “am I near the object”, etc. For finding something in a large area (like entire neighbourhood, or tips for trips to other states, finding ingredients, etc.) you can use your pendulum with a map. Then you ask it to point to the area where you will find it / that’s good for your vacation. You can once again do it multiple times, and if you’re going to search for something specific, you can then use the local way of finding things.

Pendulum’s are also often used in energy works as a way to find some blockages, which areas need the most attention, etc. Basically in these things one person lies down flat on the stomach or back, and the other person holds the pendulum over their body, asking to point towards the areas. I believe that it is quite a common practice when you go to some reiki therapy.

One more thing I’d like to talk about before moving on to taking care of a pendulum, is divination itself. When talking about divination, most people probably imagine fortune telling. Now I’m not saying that’s impossible, but the fact is, future is everchanging. The slightest of things can change it - that is why the further we’re reading, the more inaccurate it gets. When you do a reading (and I mean anything, be it pendulum or tarot) for today, it will be likely quite accurate, but the further away you do, it gets less and less accurate. And on top of that, we can often misinterpret things. So just keep this in mind when using your divination tools. I personally rather do readings for advice rather than fortune-telling.

  Pendulum care

When we talk about pendulum care, it’s mostly about cleansing. Why do we cleanse? Because most things collect some amount of negative energy through time. This is especially true for spiritual tools, including divination tools, because by doing spiritual things, we open the area (and ourselves) to the energies of the universe - which includes negative ones. Other than that we also always cleanse tools when we first obtain them, to rid them of any energy they were subjected to up till they got into our hands. This ensures they keep giving accurate answers and we don’t bring even more negative energy into our lives.

Cleansing your pendulum can be done in multiple ways. If you’d like to use physical cleaning (with water) while focusing on cleansing it spiritually too, please make sure that whatever the material is can be washed. There are many crystals that react with water, and in some cases it can be harmful not only to the crystal, but also to you. Another way you can cleanse is by sunlight or moonlight. I’ve seen multiple opinions on these - some say that some crystals would be better with sunlight while others with moonlight and that full moon is the best, because the moonlight is strongest. However I have found it more common for new moon to be a cleansing period. The energies of new moon leave behind what should be gotten rid of and starts with a clean slate. Charging crystals would be probably better in full moon though, yes. But crystals currently aren’t our topic. You also need to make sure how certain crystals react with sunlight - because some fade if left too long in it. It doesn’t damage them, but you might be disappointed if your beautiful amethyst pendulum suddenly starts losing its purple colour.  There is also something called soundcleansing. Usually it’s done with tuning fork or a singing bowl, but that doesn’t always have to be the case. I often combine this with visualisation and clap my hands, hum, things like that. It is mostly believed that the vibrations are what cleanse. So you can also pull up youtube video with some sounds and it should work just fine. And then there is visualisation and meditation.This one is even more flexible than the other methods. You sit down with your pendulum and meditate, then imagine perhaps the energies exchanging, getting rid of any dark spots (negative energy) and bringing in some positive energy (often either white or yellow). I often combine this with some movement like slamming one hand lightly against the other, like shaking the negative energy out, like a powder.

Another thing is bonding with your pendulum. Using it by itself of course also is a way of bonding, but there are other ways too. Bonding helps you be more in tune with its energy, makes your readings more accurate. And if you (like some other people) believe that each divination tool has its kind of spirit (I feel like this is really common among card readers, because those cards be acting sassy), you might want to bond for the sake of bonding. Now this is done through for example carrying it around with you and meditating with it. When you first get it, asking test questions (ones you already know the answer to) can be a good way to feel its energy as well. Just make sure it’s alright with test questions, some divination tools really don’t like those in my experience, at least when you’re acting distrustful.

And I’d also like to mention that it is good to put up some protections around the place you wanna keep it in (you can also make a protection for the sachet you keep it in. This keeps it from building up too much negative energy. Many people believe that if a crystal builds up way too much negative energy, they can break. As in, part of them can fully chip off. This is actually what happened to my pendulum unfortunately, as I did not keep it in a protected place. You can continue using it even after that, I still do, but it’s never a good thing nor a good feeling to have that happen. Other than protecting your pendulum, don’t forget to protect yourself too! Since you’re opening yourself to the universe, it is important to protect yourself from anything harmful that could enter your place through it.

  Materials

Pendulums can be made from all kinds of things. If you don’t have the budget to get one, you may even use a necklace, or literally any weight hung on a string. But of course, crystals are the most common for pendulums. 

Rose quartz - Other than being the love crystal as everyone knows it, rose quartz is pretty good for getting rid of negative energies. So might be doing exceptionally well in love readings, but is mostly used for it’s protective energy.

Black obsidian - another crystal known mainly for its protective and cleansing energies, maybe more than rose quartz, which is usually focused more on love, self-love. 

Lapis lazuli - its properties have wisdom and truth. It’s not surprising that it is used for pendulums a lot. We do after all ask it for answers.

Aquamarine - quite an interesting stone. The connection with water means it has some cleansing properties. Spiritually however it is also connected with trust and communication. Once again, not surprising why one would want it for a pendulum.

Amethyst - Ah yes, amethyst. It has been considered one of the main spiritual crystals. Not too surprising, it is connected to the third eye energy center. It has the properties of wisdom, intuition and fighting anxiety and depression. In my opinion it is likely one of the most common materials used for pendulums and other spiritual tools.

Of course, crystals aren’t the only material used for pendulums. Another common one is metal. Copper for example is a great energy conductor and is quite widely used. Brass and Bronzestem from copper and therefore have very similar properties and are quite sturdy.

Sometimes also wood is used, as it is more grounding and stable, unaffected by the surrounding energies, only by yours as you hold it.

Some pendulums have beads / small crystals on the string. It can be used to customize the look, but also to add some meanings if you’d like. Quite common are also energy center beads (sold under “chakra” term, as chakras have been greatly appropriated from Hinduism and Buddhism).

  Making a Pendulum

There are multiple ways you can make your own pendulum if you don’t have the funds or don’t find it worth investing money into. You can always grab a necklace that you perhaps own. While most rather own pointy pendulums, they don’t have to have that shape. It is always good for it to be balanced though.

And if you’re into some woodwork, you can also carve out a wooden pendulum, hang it on a string and there you go! It shouldn’t be too heavy though, otherwise it will have a hard time swinging. And being too light might lead to it being swayed by the faintest of breezes.

  Final Note

That’s all for this post. If you have any questions or anything you think I should add to this post, go to Ask Anything. You can also write in that you do not wish to have it published, however, then you need to not write anonymously, otherwise I won’t be able to respond in DMs. For more posts, check out the Library. Have a wonderful day 💜
