I’ve heard of Pagans being contacted by their gods via certain Tarot Cards, so I wanted to do a deep dive and outline which Cards are associated with which Gods. Hopefully this can help you tell which God is reaching out to you :)

And on how it's quite literally sold to us in movies, tv shows, music, which in turn are made to sell us products that don't necessarily fit with entertainment or media. I thought about the feeling of lack that comes along only when I'm reminded that I'm "single", and started to reflect on what that means to me.
Truth is, I don't feel as incomplete as I'm apparently supposed to. I don't discard the idea of getting into a relationship, but it's also not something I see myself purposefully running towards, like I would any other wish of mine.
When I think of never dating, the only fear I'm faced with is the one of judgement; of what my family and peers will think. It's never "I have to find them". In fact, the possibility of not dating is quite freeing.
Maybe that's my brain giving me a breather and turning off that side of me so I can focus on one thing at a time. Therapy first, getting my life in order, university, keeping friendships, enjoying my own company, and after all of that, maybe in the future, I'll unlock the "Feeling ready for a relationship" achievement. But for now I'm just by myself, and I'm very glad that feels enough.

I wanna be her so bad
I write when I'm angry; and I'm angry a lot.
I am eternally, devastatingly romantic, and I thought people would see it because 'romantic' doesn't mean 'sugary.' It's dark and tormented — the furor of passion, the despair of an idealism that you can't attain.

how can a human mind create something like this?
The Third Age of the world is ended, and the new age is begun; and it is your task to order its beginning and to preserve what must be preserved.
