This might sound harsh but if you use AI to read tarot don’t consider yourself a tarot reader. Please use your own brain, It’s gotten alarmingly bad how y’all use robots for everything. The basis of tarot is to use your own intuition and understanding of the cards. The cards meanings also vary from reader to reader. It’s borderline pathetic to ask artificial intelligence what the spread you just pulled means and write down the exact answer it gives you for pacs on tumblr or wherever else because you can’t figure it out yourself. I’m sorry, but It’s embarrassing. There’s so many possibilities and so many messages to interpret when you read that a robot cannot catch. That’s the beauty in tarot!! You clearly don’t care for it if you use AI, if you’re gonna use it regardless at least be honest about it and don’t pretend you interpreted that by yourself. It’s ridiculous.

I'm up already, getting jump started on some house work, and coffee already brewed. Said good morning to Ra. Just sitting here drinking my cup of coffee, and enjoying the sunrise for a minute.

☁️clouds in witchcraft☁️

now, i’m by no means a weather witch, but using all aspects of the earth is really important to me in my craft. i’ve always been fascinated by clouds on a scientific level, but the significance of them in my witchcraft is quite high, too. i’m even making my own divination system based off of clouds! so, these are my general, personal correspondences for any type of magic.

stratus - hazy, featureless, low-level drizzle clouds - hidden truths, unclear motives. secrets

altostratus - mid-altitude, uniform grey-bluish sheet - strength, stability, prosperity

cirrostratus - high-altitude, thin, wispy, fragmented - beginnings, renewal, wishes

nimbostratus - mid-level, thick, dark formless layer - power, abundance

cumulus - flat-based, puffy - childishness, joy

altocumulus - similar to cirrocumulus but bigger and darker - comfort, safety

cirrocumulus - small, high, patchy. often in rows - dreams, intuition, future thinking

stratocumulus - low-altitude, larger elements than altocumulus, darker - protection, courage, wisdom

cirrus - many altitudes, thin, wispy strands - freedom, travel, adventure

cumulonimbus - intense vertical clouds, rain and storm producing - turmoil, difficult times, change

personally, i use clouds in sigil making (using minimalist depictions or meteorological symbols), divination (more on this soon!), visualisation, and spells where i want my intent to manifest in a productive way. i hope you can use these correspondences, and i’d love to see how you do!

if you’d like to support me and my blog, and would like a cheap tarot reading, tarot or rune bag, cute patches or custom sigils, please click here! i run this etsy as my only source of income, so it’s the only way i can pay rent and bills. thankyou dears~

Accidentally came out to my mom as being bisexual, and she was stunned and upset. She asked if that was just another way of saying I'm a whore.

Telling the bees

The custom of "telling the bees" is a charming and ancient tradition where beekeepers inform their bees about significant events in their lives, such as deaths, births, marriages, and other major occurrences. This practice is believed to have its roots in Celtic mythology, where bees were seen as messengers between the human world and the spirit world. The presence of a bee after a death was thought to signify the soul leaving the body. The tradition became particularly prominent in the 18th and 19th centuries in Western Europe and the United States.

To tell the bees, the head of the household or the "goodwife" would approach the hives, gently knock to get the bees' attention, and then softly murmur the news in a solemn tone. This ritual was believed to keep the bees informed and prevent them from leaving the hive or dying. The custom underscores the deep connection and respect that people historically had for bees, viewing them as integral members of the household and community. (The Historian's Den)

I can easily see how you can turn this in a magical tradition with some little adaptation: plant flowers and plants for bees in your garden, invoke the spirit of the bees, keep bee-telling to the bee-spirits and take care for the plants. I am sure that one day the spirit of the bees will be your ally and that you will learn from it. And a big plus: you are helping the bees to survive in a world full of mono-cultures and poisons. Witchcraft and care-taking for your environment can go hand in hand if you wish to.
