what is the point of the emoji spells? how can a couple of emojis on tumblr offer protection? genuinely curious!

it's a manifestation technique! similarly to moodboards, it creates a visual and affirmation for others to think about. of course, these emoji spells will only work if the intention is set and worked upon.

some witches incorporate sigils in them and leave these spells in their drafts to see if they work before posting. personally, i meditate on my emojis or play music from my manifesting playlist as i create them.

that playlist and my emoji spells have worked wonders for me ✨🤭

How and when to cleanse your tarot deck

It's very important, especially if you sell readings, to keep your deck nice and clean. Working with energy means that a part of it can always remain in the deck and come back later to affect your readings. Your deck deserves love and care 💖

🧚‍♀️ When 🧚‍♀️

After readings. I recommend this one for bigger readings or those that drained you out of energy. If you sell readings or do them for strangers, I would say after every reading.

If cards from the previous reading show up in the current one (more than one). This basically means there is energy left from the other reading and it can interfere with the outcome of the current spread.

When you buy a new deck. Anyone who touched it can leave their energetic imprint on it and even if that is not the case, cleansing the deck helps you start with a fresh energy.

If you are in a bad mood/state. I personally think every reader who practices tarot at least once in a while has a connection with the cards and your energy alone can impact the reading.

The readings are unclear/confusing. This can be the result of many mixed-up energies.

When you haven't used your deck in a while. Old energy that has to go!!

Someone else touches the deck. While this is good if you are reading for the person that did it, you can't let anyone else touch it. As mentioned above, energetic imprint.

🧚‍♀️ Ways/Methods 🧚‍♀️

Knock on the deck three times. I do this before every single reading as it's quite simple.

Shuffle while imagining the energy leaving the deck.

Put a crystal on top of it and leave it for a while. Crystals I recommend : black tourmaline, rose quartz, amethyst, clear quartz, smoky quartz.

Leave it in the moonlight throughout the night. I've seen a lot of people doing it on full moons which makes sense.

Pass it through candle/incence/sage smoke.

Put in the middle of a circle of salt and leave it there for a while.

You can also leave it in the sunlight as well.

Meditate with the intention of cleansing while having physical contact with the deck.

I've also seen people organizing their decks by suits. I personally don't do this but everyone has different ways of doing things so try whatever feels good to you!

54 Devils: The Art and Folklore of Fortune-Telling with Playing Cards by Cory Thomas Hutcheson

i believe that the past, the present and the future are all happening simultaneously at the same time. the you of the past, and the you of the future, are all living in this exact moment. time doesn't exist, it's an illusion. everything that has happened in the past, is happening now, and everything that will happen in the future is also happening now.

and i'm telling you this cause i often have visions and dreams of me meeting my future self, i can see my future home and my future husband, and my future kids as well.

the life of a person is already programmed from the beginning. when you died in your past life, you decided to "sign a contract" with the universe and decided how your life in this lifetime was going to be. you choose your parents, home, fiends, you choose what kind of life you were going to experience, you choose your career and your future spouse.

you cannot escape what's meant to happen, you cannot escape destiny.

States are literally just assumptions

Sorry, I kinda felt the need to make this post because this is how it makes sense to me, and I hope it helps those who are trying to use states but are confused

This isn't meant to tread on any toes btw, I'm just explaining it for the people like me who just can't wrap their heads around the way it's worded 💕

Anyways, when you're in the state of having something, you're literally just assuming that you have it. Basically the rules of states are:

intend to be in the state of having what you want (intend to assume that you have what you want), and that will be enough to get you into that state (assumption)

being in the state of having (assuming that you have it) will get you what you want quickly

Return to the state (assume you have it) often, but don't worry about doing it 24/7. The goal is to make your desired state (assumption) your dominant state (assumption).

In simpler terms: assume you have what you want and you will get it quickly 🥰

I hope this clears it up for the people who were super confused with the language they use!! It took me a while to figure this out, but it makes sense that it's just LOA worded differently 💕

okay mine was purely accidental.

but best i can explain it, me and a group of friends had begun dabbling in energy work and i had "fell" into a state. it was similar to the void state except everything different from it.

it was everything bright, everything floaty, there was nothing there except floaty clouds and bright lights. there was no one there and then big guys voice came on, he was surprised to see me honestly.

at first, this situation was weird. id have to meditate or at least focus on it to get into this state. time passed weirdly here, as in it didn't exist. usually, the big guy (he likes being called Mica, often changes his voice randomly, but does respond mostly to God) is the one who calls out to me now

his voice randomly pops in from time to time, usually replies immediately if i ask but its easiest to get into the state when praying because im focusing only on him. it takes some effort on my part if i want to talk with him but he just does it randomly that i don't usually have to get into it

it takes quite a bit of energy if you try getting into the state often. i recommend visualizing a portal like thing when getting into it so stay in the state longer instead of staying there for short periods of time but going multiple times

when working with god, or at least how i do it, he doesn't ask you for offerings MUCH but when he does ask you to do shit, pls follow him. he gets petty if you don't 😭

oh this is so interesting!! and this deity is the christian god right? that's so cool actually! that sounds like heaven and it's actually super funny that he was surprised to see you like babe i think you did the equivalent of walking into someone's house 😭

🌹 tarot tips for sexual readings:

⎡QUESTIONS ⎦⇁ so, this is a simple trick but priceless. once you run out of ideas, flip what you asked the deck to the other person/perspective. if you inquired “how are they like in bed”, you now ask “how would they experience me sexually?”. i got the most eye-opening results with this ‘inverted question’ method.

⎡SUITS ⎦⇁ the minor arcana excel in nsfw readings. why? the four suits show you what type of tone is set to a t. swords are serious and thought-out sex with sharp movements, wands signify loud and aggressive romps in multiple places or rounds, cups are romantic, sweet and emotional, while pentacles are slow, trusty, and drawn-out lovemaking that’s domestic. 

⎡ELEMENTS ⎦⇁ don’t forget that the suits come with elements as well, and interpret accordingly. e.g. swords as air show you encounters that leave you breathless, wands as fire show you that both partners will be burning up with sweat, cups as water show you that it’s gonna be all wet and spit/kiss-heavy, while coins as earth are a more grounded experience without any horizontal positions, and that the person has your favorite scent.

⎡TROPES ⎦⇁ the major arcana are perfect to determine what kind of sex life a person wants overall rather than the details. see them as erotic archetypes that get to the core of the person. they show central sensual needs and most importantly, relationship goals. and, by the way: the kind of sexy clothes the person prefers to wear.

⎡REVERSALS ⎦⇁ unless you’re the utmost pro with a decade of tarot practice under your belt, or pretty advanced, make life easier and keep reversals out of sexual readings. for other questions yes, but i find that reversals are tricky with 18+ questions if you’re a beginner. especially when you focus on reading the imagery.

⎡DOM/SUB ⎦⇁ if you’re asking about bdsm VS vanilla: swords and wands are the kinkier suits. cups and coins are way tamer. in the same vein, you can find out what type of sexual role they prefer this way. hard doms come with swords if they are strict. soft doms, usually pentacles. brats show up as wands (exception: the king/queen/knight show a dominant). soft subs = usually cups. 

⎡COURT CARDS⎦⇁ if a royal appears for a person you’re asking about, you know that they are experienced or know their stuff. unless it’s the pages, those show you’re dealing with a novice or shy person (cups and coins the most in that case, swords and wands the least). the knights, 50-50. beside the knight of coins they are or have been the most sexually active at least.

⎡ACES⎦⇁ Most tarot readers interpret them as stages of initiation, like a first date, first time. I think you can add another meaning given their number in the suits (1): They can stand for the singular person getting it on by themselves rather than couple activity. The aces tell you the most about masturbation habits. On top of that, it’s how they want to become ‘one’ with their partner.

⎡HARMONY⎦⇁ if there’s one thing a deck can do, it’s this. the tarot will give you lightning-fast reflections on whether your intimate time would be/is/was harmonious or not, healthy or not. should you however get a card that is ambiguous in meaning, focus on how the image makes you feel like and you know the answer.

⎡SPREADS ⎦⇁ for a mysterious reason, the tarot seems to like 5-card spreads for sexual readings. it seems to be the sacred number right here. maybe it’s how the body has five outermost points, the four limbs and head. so, a star-shaped spread works wonders congruently.
