I've got a brand new reading ready for tomorrow ✨
I'm super sorry about my late absence these previous months, but whoever follows me on my main account and might have been seeing my work, but this one is very special to me and deserves to be in this blog
To those who are not familiar with the Hades game franchise, it's an amazing game based in Greek Mythology and the whole game, history wise, art wise, character wise and soon they'll be releasing their second game with revolves around Melinoe's journey as she's a disciple of Hecate, and as soon as Hekate's official art was released I NEEDED to draw her.
Throughout the process all I could feel was my heart very warm by each character design discovery, it only proves how much respect and hard work people from Supergiant games have depicting figures that are so important for so many people (me included)
I can't wait for the game to be out and for sure this is not the last art I do from/for Her, but here's my personal recommendation, if you're devote to any Greek-pantheon deity (and also like rogue like games) this might be a great experience!

Feedback: thank you so much for getting back to me. I needed to hear this message. I always let the judgement of others and my self stop me from finding myself and what I want. I feel like most of my life this has stopped me from being expressive. Constantly being judged even as a child has made me afraid to make any mistakes or even any small decisions, because of the fear of being disappointed. I think my inner child would be upset that I never figured out how to let go of that for her. I know she felt unhappy and alone then. She probably hates that nothings changed. She prayed for a future that was different. Only to see the reality that future her let her down. Having to walk on eggshells in fear of major/overreactions taught her to be a people pleaser. As well as yearning for affection that never came. I hope we break free together and find this rebirth you speak of. Thank you ♥️
I'm so glad the reading was helpful to you, remember that big changes should come with time, with little decisions every day, but do not beat yourself down whenever you can't make it. Spend time in your own company, explore different things, different subjects, try things for yourself and decide whether you like them or not, enjoy the feeling of doing something for the first time.
Something very useful and very heartwarming, speaking personally, is looking forward to join a community of people with common interests, they can support you and make you feel included, not alone.
May you find much joy in your journey 🤍
What message does the Oracle have for your week?
Take a deep breath and allow the Gods, Titans and Heros from Greek myths to enlighten your week with a message. When you have chosen between the shells open up the post, I have these words can help you ✨
Week Sep 18 - Sep 24
Results
Brindle shell: XX - Apollo
This week promises to bring you clarity, Apollo appears to bring you light, joy and creativity, like the sun that shines bright and warm. You should try to stay in tune with what makes you feel radiant and creative, whether it's through arts, music, a sunbathe or a hidden message, welcome Apolo to assist you.
The clouds of confusion that have been hovering over will swap places with the shiny rays of clarity and order, you'll feel more centered and lucid just by allowing the light to enter.
Chocolate shell: IV - Mnemosyne
Mnemosyne is memory personified, she's not only Zeus' consort but also mother to the nine muses of inspiration. She comes to show how our memories can be a great ally and bring so much inspiration to the current moment. Something in your past might awake and provide you the extra gas or the answer to a question, be attentive to the symbols.
This week, work along Mnemosyne and pay attention to the voice within you, with extra care, take notes of all ideas you may come across this week, you'll make them happen eventually.
Pink shell: XL - Hekate
You might come across some hard decisions this week, an unavoidable crossroad is before you and demands a choice. You'll probably know what is the correct answer, don't be afraid to follow your heart.
Hekate invites you to acknowledge your wildest and untamable parts of yourself, the light is not the only place to find answers, much can be learned if we understand our deepest shadows and work with them. When facing the crossroad ask Hekate to light your way with her torches and be ready to choose a path.

I hope you've found a insightful message, may your week be showered in blessings and wisdom 💜

My tarot and oracles arrived in the best day!!
Probably gonna try to make some readings again at @bruxadehekate, I swear they are so pretty
A witche's best gift for witches' day 🥹
Hello~
Hope my ask finds you in great shape,
I'm S.R, (she/her)
May I please request a reading on a question (or two?) 1) are there any opportunities/doors I'm overlooking when it comes to my career? 2) is K.T, the person I've gotten signs since 3 years, is he my future spouse? And what can I do knowing the information?
Thank you soo very much for your time and energy.
Sending you positive energy and hope you have great days ahead!
You're definitely letting something slip on your career. Have you tried analyzing all the options logically? Evoke your rational side, see the whole situation from a far, take in every angle to figure out the best outcome, not letting emotions speak louder than reason.
To be brief, it's not needed to lose nights of sleep over this matter, nor be pessimistic or discouraged, the stress will do you more harm than good, you already have the tools to change your situation. When you realize it and put it to action, nothing will stop your growth.
To the second question, besides you having a deep connection with KT, maybe that big of a commitment is not suitable in a timely manner. Your partnership is a blessing, but one of you, and I suppose it's you, still have to go through some rest, healing and self discovery first.
Hope this was somehow insightful for you, sending plenty of positivity your way ✨
Guess who's back??
The time for me to get the traditional Waite-Smith tarot and I LOVE it already, not to mention other two oracles I'm sure will be awesome to make weekly advice readings!
So, I'll be reopening free readings and hopefully be able to open paid more insightful readings, but all in due time.
I took some time off to dedicate to my work, I'm a freelancer digital artist to those who don't know, and now that things are finally working out I feel like it's time to fit tarot back into my life.
My ask box is open, feel free to seek for advice ✨
hi! i saw that you may be doing free readings and i would like one please and thank you. lately i’ve been experiencing quite a bit of sickness especially at work like i’ll start to feel sick but only at work. i’m wondering if there is someone wishing ill on me in my workplace?
XV - The Devil
This card comes answering a very specific question: Is anybody in your work directing negativity towards you? The Devil represents someone obsessed, it can point towards an ugly relationship of yours. I can tell, yes, there's a certain negativity coming your way.
I admit this was a tricky question for me to get a clear answer, I kept asking as if health was the main issue, but it was not, I tried a lot of times. One card that got my attention was the Star at some point, generally a positive card however, when along with the Devil, it can represent someone who pretends, a fake person, and the Devil was indeed very near the Star.
If you will accept a witch's advice, some amulets great to get rid of negativity and evil eyes are the black tourmaline (absorbs negativity) tiger's eye (like the one above the card, it's protective, breaks hexes), and Greek eye (protection against envious people), any of them in any size will do, keep it with you while you work or on your workspace.
Remember to keep an eye out for your health and visit a doctor regularly if you're not feeling well, I hope you can get rid of those awful energies and prosper 🖤
It's been so refreshing and absurdly delightful to explore a religion that I really feel like I belong to
Ever since a young age my mom made me go to the church and she'd always tell me how light and renewed she felt after mass while all I felt was tiredness due to the ridiculously early hour on a sunday and boredom because nothing the priest said really appealed to me
Now I understand the feeling, after burning an herb, candle or incense, putting some pagan music, dancing, doing my prayers and writing on my grimmoire I feel all of that, the connection with the divine, the fulfilment, the well being and lightness of exercising my beliefs, words don't come close to describe the real feeling
I can't wait for the day when I'll be practicing openly, not worrying if someone might come in, if they might find this or that by accident; not being afraid to buy a dagger or a statue because it'd be too flamboyant and suspicious
If you're like me and cannot exercise your full practice, you're not less of witch/sorcerer/pagan/etc, your faith is not smaller than someone's who practice out in the wild, our time will come and it'll be more beautiful than words can measure
Remember the most important ingredient is your intention, everything else are just tools to focus said intention towards their goal. When it comes to offering to deities, you don't have to offer full meals, full bottles or only Their favorite items, the most important is offering something you enjoy, like you'd offer to a friend, They will be pleased to be included and honored 🤍
Feeling healed from the common cold, I've been asked from someone to whom I've done a reading before (for a different situation) to take another reading to help her in a college matter, I'm analyzing this reading below 👇🏻✨ (long analysis, 3 different spreads)
Yet again I made a big clean up on my room, broomed the floor, cleaned my desk, put away the fresh laundry and of course lighted my incense along with good music and cheers
This time I had my hopes a bit up due to the moon water I've made during the super blue moon, I couldn't wait for it to deepen my intuition, however through the reading, I think it made out for the week I spent away from tarot due to my illness. Anyway, it was of great help!
As I was alone and my requester wasn't asnwering my texts I went through her audio explaining her situation to get a grasp of her emergy while shuffling the cards, this was the cards I drew:
Spread 1
This spread is about the connection between two people, in this case my requester and the person she's been having conflict in college. To make it clear, I know my requester very well and could tell already how her cards (the two left) made a lot of sense.
She's a pacifier like the Temperance, trying to find a way to make everyone happy, trying to balance all parts even of they're very opposites. Her challenge was also clear, she is emotional like the Empress, putting everyone's desires above her own, even from people who wouldn't do the same for her.
The other person was the deal, I do not know them outside what my requester had explained and told me in other occasions (not much). The cards drawn (two right) also are very opposites but the spread structure helped me read them a lot better.
The Hermit is about solitude and self learning, however I've got a big feeling that what it really means is the person is hiding something, be it an insatisfaction towards requester or their college matter, or an emotion repressed. The Sun, on the other side, is about openness, shining, but as a challenge, it might represent too much light, meaning the person might be too exhibitionist, attention seeker and individualist.
Again, I do not know the person irl, so I left the task for my requester to analyze it deeper, at first she felt like the description was off.
Finally, the fifth card (above) is their uniting force between them, and I admit the Star was quite the challenge to read. It's one of the most positive cards among the Major Arcana but the situation overall is not positive, so I had to dig. I came to the conclusion both sides feel like their attitudes are correct, neither thinks of overcoming their challenges (one putting herself first and the other leaving their individualism behind). They might even be playing dumb towards said challenges, thinking it all will be solved on its own.
Spread 2
This is called Clarity spread, I felt necessary to get a grasp of my requester's situation (card 1) and it's factors (cards 2-4)
Her situation is VERY clear, she's got tangles all over, everything is a mess and only a (big) change can help untangle those knots
Her factors are just as clear, Justice brings the weight of decisions, she might know exactly how to act towards her situation, but a tough decision is less attractive than several light decisions that are not effective but easier to execute. The Devil alerts about old habits, or perhaps toxic relationships, which speaks directly to the Lovers, an overall positive card but in this reading might be taken literally, the people requester chose to keep by her side are contributing more towards her problem than to her solutions.
Spread 3
I admit, before this spread, I tried the connection spread several times because nothing seemed to make sense, the only spread that came close was the very first one (the first from this analysis that I decided to take a photo of) but I still had doubt. I tried several times and my back started to hurt.
Before going back to the picture and trying to read it properly I laid back on my chair and asked for one card to represent the issuing person, it was the Emperor, which represents both solid and bold structure that is great at building things but can also be stubborn, authoritarian and even oppressive. It made sense.
To that, I took the next card to represent requester, and funnily enough it was the Empress, it's perfect counter, being creative, nurturing and caring, sometimes exaggerated and too needy, doing everything for people who don't deserve it.
Finally, I asked for a card to represent their situation, and the next card is the tower. It's their current storm, it looks like everything is falling apart (maybe it is) and that their current pain will heal and become experience, I also took it as a message not to be too pessimist, specially to my requester after presenting her so many negative cards about her situation with person.
・✧・・✧・・✧・
In this specific reading I was indeed looking towards each card's negative face because the situation was an issue between them, it's not positive or else it wouldn't be an issue.
Bring cards' common meanings would be reading the same paragraphs over and over looking for an answer that's not there, specially for the Sun or the Star (if you own Wild Unknown Tarot, you know what I mean).
Requester found all the readings quite accurate, most of the issues presented were indeed things she'd noticed before, either in her own attitudes or others'. One thing she disagreed was the first spread's sun, indicating individualism or attention seeker, she couldn't recall memories of person acting that way.
Later today, requester had news about her college matter and we started a call for her to tell me more about it all and I asked more about person, in one story in particular requester said how person seemed to disregard her and other people's words during a class presentation, and there I could see that Sun card, someone trying to glow brighter than the others, eager for compliments and credit.
Again, I shouldn't be so shocked to learn how the cards are indeed correct, yet deep inside I hope requester will solve her issues even if my reading turns out to be faulty or wrong about person. Honestly, I don't really think it is.
Someone with a deactivated account messaged me about a reading and I can't answer :(
At the moment I have a common cold and I'm unable to do any readings (I wanted to make some general readings during this week about business and relationship but my body decided otherwise)
After I'm healed from this cold, I'd be glad to provide personal readings to practice. If you're interested please notice I'm a mere beginner, my mother tongue is not english and I'm still studing Major Arcana, the readings might not be very insightful, be patient with me please!
Stay safe out there, may the Gods bless the rest of your week ✨
