The moon cycle stages and the energy or practice in association…

Thank you for explaining! But what would be energy work? I looked it up and it seems to be some ancient techniques to heal energy balance in the body. I don't know what any of that means. And how would you confirm that it's god and not a trickster identity? I've heard plenty about those.

Hi! I know you're asking the other anon, and I do hope they see this, but I can give some basic answers that hopefully help too :)

Before you do any more research, please read this post!

In witchy and spiritual circles, energy work quite literally refers to working with energy! Your energy, the energy around you, and everything in between. Here's a good post about it (and some other things)! I would actually recommend going through their "energy work" tag for more posts.

When communicating with other beings, I'd say you'll get better at knowing who's who as you do it more. In general though, putting up the proper protections for whatever you're doing, trusting your gut, and knowing when to cut communication (aka banishing in this case) is important. Energy work is actually very helpful for this! One very basic part of energy work is protective work (which often involves visualizing a shield of energy surrounding you) and that is necessary when communicating with other beings. Here's a good post on protection!

If you already work with the law, use that to your advantage! Assume that you're properly protected at all times and that you're always communicating with who you want to communicate with (and/or any being who means no harm). I'd also assume that only the beings you want to communicate with can communicate with you! That's actually what I do with my deities because having them around can still be overwhelming. I imagine this would help a lot with trickster spirits.

Some clues that you may be dealing with someone/thing who's lying about their identity:

if you have a feeling they are (trust your gut!!)

if you find yourself low on energy, constantly or suddenly in a bad mood (for no apparent reason or everything is pissing you off), sudden frequent nightmares

if they constantly change their identity (not necessarily changing their names! most beings will tell you if they want you to refer to them as something else or if they're comfortable with another name. changing their identity for no reason is a whole other thing)

if they get very aggressive or angry when you ask for their real identity or say that you're going to banish them/ask them to leave

if they tell you that you're like... super important or powerful (like a god reincarnated or a high priest/priestess).

if they don't want to tell you their intentions for why they're talking to you

if they can't answer basic questions about themselves or you (or they keep answering with things like "maybe/idk". in general, you'll know the difference between an actual deity who's saying maybe for whatever reason and a trickster who's saying maybe because they don't actually know)

This is just some very basic information. This post isn't comprehensive! I hope none of this scares you because trust me if you have the right information and do the right things, you'll be completely fine. But you do need to know the right information and this post isn't all of it. So again, I don't want to overwhelm or scare you but if you find that you want to go into energy work or communicate with a deity, do more research.

instant manifestation is completely natural

spawning things in real life is completely natural

manifesting things out of thin air is completely natural

changing the past is completely natural

molding reality like it's a piece of clay is completely natural

being able to shift realities as an instant is completely natural

going back in time is completely natural

walking on water is completely natural

raising from the dead is also completely natural

you can do all of this effortlessly because this is your NATURE.

YOU ARE GOD.

don't be afraid of the illogical, the physical substance holds no power against you, you will always be greater than everything.

if you are ever afraid to dream big or manifest things that go against the laws of nature, read this post again and again and ask yourself: is it worth it to worry about things that I could reach easily if I believed in myself a bit more? because the ability to mold reality is GIVEN to you, you were born with it, you don't have to fight for it, you just have to accept that this is who you are

(corrected the typos so it won't damage your eyes lmao)

there is nothing too big or too small for you to manifest.

like, you gotta know you are the rock, the sun, the moon and the star. you deserve everything in the entire universe and more. there is nothing in this life that you cannot have. dream big, as the life is truly your oyster.

you want your dream job? you can manifest that! you want the perfect partner? your wish is my command! you want a fat ass? the world is your oyster!

don’t ever, ever, EVER, settle for less! you deserve every single one of your desires, and with just the right mindset, everything you could wish for will be right in the palm of your hand.

dream big, my love.

Do you think I should believe in my intuition about that subject or I need to stop day dreaming .

34 was here

intuition. intuition. intuition. intuition.intuition. intuition. intuition.intuition. innnntuuuuiiiiitttioooonnnn.

~ I feel like if there’s one thing I’m always telling people it’s “follow your intuition” or “ask your spirit guides” or “stick with your gut instinct. your first thought.” I seriously say at least one of those things in every reading I post so IDK why this is even a question at this point?

why the fuck would you doubt your intuition? why the fuck would you trust anything other than your gut instinct? why? 

are you not a living breathing organism on this planet? were you not created from the cosmos? are you not made of stardust? are you not divinely guided and protected at all times doing all things in all places???

~ Whenever you’re daydreaming, your literally just astral traveling to an alternate reality, and anything you do in that reality will ripple out into this current one (especially now that you’re aware of it) so if I were you I’d play around with it. Try to make a game of seeing what you can do in other realities to bring cool shit into your present one. 

Pay attention to what you’re doing in these worlds and how it makes you feel. Remember that you are in complete control and take accountability for your actions. Things manifest faster if your energy is light and you’re laughing a lot on a daily basis in this reality.

You can literally use your daydreams to bring anything you desire into your current reality by keeping your energy light and matching the vibration of the thing you’re trying to bring to you. For example: When I was raped by my friend it wasn’t a particularly easy thing for me to get over at first for a number of reasons, no matter how much therapy I went to or progress I made, it always felt like there was something holding me back. Until like last month, when I had this idea to visit the alternate realities where we stayed friends or started dating and change my present reality by ending things with this person in those ones. 

It may sound kind of far-fetched at first, and there are other ways a psychologist would explain this to you, but I immediately felt a weight lift off my shoulders because when my subconscious released the expectation that “things are working out with them in that other world and that’s why you’re happy there so you can’t be happy here because things got kind of iffy and now you don’t talk anymore.” and I chose to address, acknowledge, and then change the narrative to “things were good with them for a while but then I moved onto better things in that other world and it is safe for me to do that in this one as well” it was like a switch flipped in my brain. Years of trauma fell away and I haven’t had a flashback, nightmare, or intrusive thought about it since.

omg this answer is getting too long lmao. I should probably just make a whole post on how to heal trauma and manifest different things in your life through daydreams lol. let me know if you have any specific questions you’d like me to answer in that...

I’m feeling called to pull a card for advice from your guides so... 

The Tower, 7 of Cups - I literally cannot make this shit up. You’re on the right track with the daydreaming thing, but something about your current daydreams needs to change. It feels like your focus is more superficially based than spiritually based? 

Lots of times when I’m helping my clients/students manifest romantic relationships, I like to spend an extra amount of time with them reviewing the foundations of their desires and releasing any/all expectations. 

When you’re focused on the physical traits and qualities of a person (or anything) you’re trying to bring into your life, you’re trying to manifest them/it with your ego. But when you focus on the vibration of love they/it brings into your already full life, and you find ways to make your current life a hospitable environment for this new thing, that’s when the real magic happens. 

So it’s a good idea for you to sit in lotus pose or criss-cross-apple-sauce, and really meditate on why you want what you want. Is this desire stemming from a place of lack or a place of love?

n e ways... idek if that answered your question but someone clearly needed to hear all of this because I couldn’t stop typing lmao

Introduction to traditional playing card fortune-telling

Naughty children, today I shall be your good Ukrainian grandmother teaching you how to read playing cards - or, this is your introduction post to this list of meanings.

Begin with taking a new deck of cards; once selected for telling fortunes, it must not be used for games. It has to contain thirty-six cards, thus, if a full deck, take out the Jokers and cards two to five.

While every card has its own meaning, they follow certain general guidelines. Cards are to be read in groupings, modifying each other’s meanings, so start your practice with pairs and groups of three. Traditionally, the King and the Queen of the suit of Hearts are used as significators.

♥️ Love, emotions, relationships, joy, family; air; timing: springtime, morning, hours to days

♦️ Money, material possessions, physical health; fire; timing: summer, daytime, days to weeks; people young, unmarried, wealthy, in good health

♣️ Legal matters, social status, achievements, learning; earth; timing: autumn, evening, weeks to months; people middle-aged, married, benevolent

♠️ Sorrow, selfishness, cruelty, vice and loud, drunken festivities; water; timing: winter, nighttime, years; people over 55, with power or status, hostile or selfish

Ace - initiation, sudden happening, a place or an item

6 - a path, a time frame

7 - conversation, first steps of a process

8 - meetings, development of the process

9 - an event, first results, difficulties can be resolved

10 - full development of a process, something of interest

Jacks - accidents, news, lack of expertise

Queens and Kings - people or states
