Spell for good grades

What you’ll need:

orange candle

mint (leaf or oil)

green piece of jewelry or clothing (to keep on you)

needle (or something to carve the candle

Carve your name into the top of the orange candle, and an “A” on the side. Rub some mint oil on the sides of the candle, or rub the leaves on the candle. Put on your green piece of jewelry, or clothing, or a green stone can work too. 

The color orange, when burned is to help bring about desired results. Mint brings good luck, and help to make you more alert because of the sharp smell. 

Burn the candle until your name is melted off the candle and get the image of you holding an “A” paper in your hand while it melts. Put some mint oil on the clothes, or jewelry, or stone. Wear these on test days, or quiz days.

My gods are not dead.

My gods are alive.

My gods are present.

My gods are interactive.

My gods are hidden.

My gods are hidden in the debaucharies, in the bars, the formal settings where you wear a nice suit and drink a glass of wine.

My gods are hidden in the fields of grass, the sunshine upon my face.

My gods are hidden in the beautiful pearls around a woman’s neck, in the children running around.

My gods are hidden in the shadows that watch over us, in the air, cars and sea when we travel.

My gods are in the waves, or by the fire place. They are in the music we hum and listen to.

My gods are not dead. They are alive and with us.

do you have any tips for making a character more interesting and for making a morally grey character?

How to write a morally grey character

@creativepromptsforwriting on IG | do not repost!

There are good guys and there are bad guys. But the world is not just black and white and neither are everyone’s morals.

What makes someone morally grey?

You could also call it morally ambiguous. They are real people with their own ideas and motivations and the possibility to change their ways when there is enough incentive. They are neither pure good, nor pure evil.

Which just makes them human and to an extend that includes everyone. So in fiction, this is often a character that is unpredictable, the reader can’t be sure on what side they are on. It could change.

How to create them

decide on a balance between good traits and bad traits

give them understandable motives

give them motivations that would make them work for the good cause and motivations that would make them work for the bad ones

give them a moral compass and a set of rules that they would usually follow

but also give them personal goals that interfer with that

show them having to make decisions that can lead to real consequences

Tips

don’t make them overly mysterious, the reader should understand where they are coming from with their decisions

but you can create surprise by giving two good and believable options to choose and make the readers be on the edge of their seat to find out which one they choose

decide between the character making active choices or the character passively letting things happen that puts them in both the good and the bad box

Examples:

A character who sees the good that the hero is doing and wants to support them in saving the city, but doing that would interfer with their personal goal (saving their family for example) - the reader can’t be sure which way they will choose

A character is generally doing good things, but when something bad happens, they tolerate it and don’t stop it, passively being on the side of evil.

The Divine Feminine Legacy Challenge -- BASE GAME VERSION

Welcome to the Divine Feminine Legacy Challenge -- BASE GAME VERSION! This is base game compatible. For the original version, check out my other post or my tiktok freerealestate_on.

——————————————————————————

Overview / Rules:

13 Generations : 12 Zodiacs / Ends in Divine Feminine

Must complete indicated career, aspiration, skills, and any other goals listed

Each generation has an associated color palette to integrate into their look and home

No money cheats allowed

Use any mods / cc as you wish to customize your gameplay

How to determine the next generation (some verbiage used from Pinstar as they describe it best!)

Strict Matriarchy: The Founder must be female. Only girls are eligible to be named heir. Male children cannot, under any circumstance, ever be the heir to the next generation. Matriarchy is key!

Bloodline: To be eligible to be named heir, a child must be naturally born from their previous-generation parents and be able to trace an unbroken bloodline back to the founder. Adopted children may never be named heir.

Heir Law: I will personally be using Democracy (aka asking followers/friends to chose the next heir); however, if this is not possible you are welcome to chose another method like first-born or the child with the highest relationship to the prior founder

**Any similarities between other TS4 challenges are purely coincidental – as of June 2022, this has not been fully played through so if you find any issues please let me know!**

Enjoy your journey to the Divine Feminine! 

——————————————————————————

Generation: Aries (Red)

Plot: Typical Aries – doing what you want, when you want, and how you want it. Even as a kid, you were always taking risks and moving to the beat of your own drum, much to the turmoil of your household. While this has given your life a lot of…adventure, you often have a hard time making friends because of your fiery personality and sharp tongue. Your family has cut ties because their hearts couldn’t take one more screaming match. But a new “family” came along in time who knows exactly where you can fit in (specifically small bank vaults). 

Traits: Hot-Headed, Kleptomaniac, Self-Assured

Aspiration: Public Enemy

Career: Criminal Career

Skills: Mischief, Fitness, Handiness

Other: Have 3 friends only and 3+ enemies / Marry a coworker as no one else understands your line of work

——————————————————————————

Generation: Taurus (Pink)

Plot: While you definitely inherited your stubbornness from your Aries mother, there’s not much else that relates you two. Growing up in such a tumultuous, loud environment, you become increasingly risk-averse and prefer the company of your quiet garden over mom’s crime ring buddies. Being so set in your ways, you like routine and have worked hard at creating an oasis of calm and beauty. 

Traits: Neat, Loves Outdoors, Vegetarian

Aspiration: Freelance Botanist

Career: Freelance Writer

Skills: Gardening, Cooking, Violin

Other: Maintain a thriving garden of 10+ plants including a cowplant  / Go to the gym every Sunday with your mom to try to instill calm into her life

——————————————————————————

Generation: Gemini (Yellow)

Plot: You spent a lot of time on the internet researching for her mother – ‘how to create hybrid plants’ or ‘what to do if your cowplant eats you’. What was once a chore for mom, became an outlet for you. A world beyond the garden where people had thoughts, opinions, and could joke or argue behind the anonymity of a screen. Oh, you are GOOD at this! Finally real people to talk to aside from the queen of routine. Hopefully you won’t word-vomit all over your laptop.

Traits: Outgoing, Cheerful, Goofball

Aspiration: Friend of the World

Career: Style Influencer

Skills: Charisma, Comedy, Photography

Other: Photograph all of your friends and maintain a gallery wall space / Marry another goofball

——————————————————————————

Generation: Cancer (Silver/Gray)

Plot: Your first memory is when you set up a “free hugs” booth at your elementary school and was promptly teased for being too sensitive. Mom says you’re an empath, but that memory was the first lesson in hiding her pain in the hopes of not burdening anyone else. You found art as a teen and slowly healed from the bullying you experienced as a child with art therapy. You finally realized that being an empath is a gift and should be spread to all.

Traits: Gloomy, Good, Art-Lover

Aspiration: Painter

Career: Painter

Skills: Painting, Cooking, Logic

Other: Have two failed relationships due to your wanting to ‘fix’ this person / Adopt at least two children

——————————————————————————

Generation: Leo (Orange)

Plot: While your mom’s life ambitions were incredibly altruistic, yours are a bit more glam. You want to be heard and seen. Spending your childhood watching Mom try to fix everyone was exhausting and you fully believe in self-care over anyone. 

Traits: Ambitious, Outgoing, Jealous

Aspiration: Party Animal

Career: Entertainer

Skills: Charisma, Mixology, Guitar

Other: Go out on the town every weekend / Lose your entertainer career after a public breakdown

——————————————————————————

Generation: Virgo (Green)

Plot: After your mom’s incredibly public breakdown, you were left to pick up the pieces as a teen – a task you are of course completely ready to handle. The first item to check off your never-ending list was to get them out of the media frenzy. The next, to start over in a new town. And once the list was done, it was time for another – 1) go to business school, 2) open your own consulting firm, 3) clean up everyone else’s messes. A perfect task for a perfectionist, including your side hobbies of cooking and piano– more tasks that need perfect precision. 

Traits: Perfectionist, Neat, Genius

Aspiration: Successful Lineage

Career: Business

Skills: Piano, Writing, Cooking

Other: Move neighborhoods as a teen and support parents until their death / Help your children with homework every night to ensure they grow up perfect like you

——————————————————————————

Generation: Libra (Lavender)

Plot: You were perfectly happy following your mom’s expectations. It was actually nice for a while as making your own decisions is incredibly difficult. Like what to eat, what to say, where to live, what to study, who to date…it gets to a point where you are juggling multiple relationships because you don’t want to deal with a breakup. You throw yourself into a career as a food critic to avoid all that stress, but get fired as you give everyone five stars to not hurt their feelings. 

Traits: Romantic, Foodie, Childish

Aspiration: Serial Romantic

Career: Culinary

Skills: Cooking, Gourmet Cooking, Mixology

Other: Make family dinner every night, whether for family or friends if single/no kids yet / Once married, maintain two secret relationships

——————————————————————————

Generation: Scorpio (Black)

Plot: You’ve always had a knack for getting to know what truly lies under someone’s skin. You figured it out from a pretty young age when waiting tables at your mom’s restaurant and being able to convince someone that they actually adore their meal, rather than send it back. When you interview at the bureau of secret agents, the interviewer actually wept as you managed to uncover their traumas that they kept hidden deep in their subconscious. In short, you are the top dog for your uncanny ability to uncover the truth. Your only outlets are video gaming and fishing as they don’t require too much thought. 

Traits: Loner, Bookworm, Ambitious

Aspiration: Neighborhood Confidante 

Career: Teen > Barista / Secret Agent

Skills: Video gaming, Charisma, Fishing

Other: Never take a vacation day / Get divorced due to your one true love – work

——————————————————————————

Generation: Sagittarius (Navy)

Plot: While you feel your agent mom is too attached to her job, you hop around like no one’s business. You want to see the world, try new things, and always be a better version of you. It started with a love of space but you got lonely without a library of books and how-to manuals around, so you switched over to the technology field. Now there’s where the research is – but perhaps too dull? Maybe being a scientist would work out well, or an athlete would be pretty cool. Your mind moves so fast it’s hard to keep you up with even yourself sometimes!

Traits: Non-Committal, Active, Bro

Aspiration: Renaissance Sim

Career: Astronaut > Tech Guru > Athlete

Skills: Programming, Rocket Science, Handiness

Other: Elope at a young age, separate, then find your way back together / Build a rocket ship

——————————————————————————

Generation: Capricorn (Brown)

Plot: Your mom’s energy has always been way too much for you. You thrive on stability and cater to your own agenda. You’ve been a full fledged adult since the age of 3, and you don’t understand why everyone isn’t this way. Watching your mom go from career to career is genuinely painful to you. You’d much rather pour your energy into getting high marks on everything you set out to do and thrive on that little ‘good job’ you get from your boss every so often. 

Traits: Creative, Mean, Snob

Aspiration: Mansion Baron

Career: Business

Skills: Logic, Violin, Gardening

Other: Complete a collection / Marry someone in business career as you appreciate their structure and regime 

——————————————————————————

Generation: Aquarius (Light Blue)

Plot: To you, intelligence is sexy. So why not learn as much as you can! You are obviously mentally gifted. You share your knowledge at every chance you get, and adore arguing for the sake of arguing and convincing everyone of your incredibly niche views. Sometimes you wonder why no one wants to hang out, but at least you have your debate buddies.

Traits: Geek, Bookworm, Clumsy

Aspiration: Nerd Brain

Career: Freelance Programmer

Skills: Programming, Guitar, Mischief

Other: Accept every invite you get so you have more opportunities to debate with other / marry an enemy

——————————————————————————

Generation: Pisces (Green, Gray)

Plot: You’ve always felt intimidated by your very smart family. For them, hosting lively dinner debates on alien sightings was FUN. You’d rather melt away and be boundless on the Earth’s planes, being one with all realities. As soon as you can, you leave that suffocating family home and live simply on the land to further your dreamscape.

Traits: Lazy, Loves Outdoors, Good

Aspiration: Angling Ace

Career: Painter

Skills: Photography, Fishing, Piano

Other: Live on an off-grid lot during adulthood / Have a bad relationship with any siblings -- you find them too intense

——————————————————————————

Generation: Divine Feminine (White)

Plot: You are wise beyond your years – people describe you as intuitive, compassionate, creative, kind, and sensual. You live life to the fullest and are constantly present. You care deeply for your family, friends, animals and Mother Earth. 

Traits: Family-Oriented, Music Lover, Creative

Aspiration: The Curator

Career: Self-employed / player's choice

Skills: Charisma, Gardening, Fitness

Other: Travel to all secret worlds / Be in a healthy relationship with your childhood best friend

——————————————————————————

“She is so bright and glorious that you cannot look at her face or her garments for the splendor with which she shines. For she is terrible with the terror of the avenging lightning, and gentle with the goodness of the bright sun; and both her terror and her gentleness are incomprehensible to humans…. But she is with everyone and in everyone, and so beautiful is her secret that no person can know the sweetness with which she sustains people, and spares them in inscrutable mercy.” ― Hildegard von Bingen

A Detailed Guide to Cleansing Your Tarot Deck

How often should I cleanse my deck and why?

Between every in-depth reading you do: they require a lot of energy and focus and can heavily impact the energy around your deck

When you get a new deck: you don’t know who has handled the deck before you or what energies surrounded it

If someone touches your deck: their energy can be easily transmitted through physical contact (which you could potentially use to your advantage if you’re reading for them)

When you see multiple cards from a recent previous reading appear in your current reading: a sign that the energies of the people you are reading for are becoming muddled

At different times of the year - equinoxes, full moons, first day of a season: routine cleansing is a great way to keep your cards in good shape

If you haven’t used it in a while: old, built up energies need to be cleared to help “wake up” your deck after it’s been sitting unused

How can I clean my deck?

With a cleansing sigil: place the deck on top to the sigil and write “Negative energy” or “Old energy” for removal

Passing through some sage smoke: sage is a great all around cleanser!

Shuffling while focusing on cleansing: shuffling reorganizes the cards and is a quick method for cleansing in between consecutive readings

Place a clear quartz on top: quartz, especially when charged with light from a full moon, absorbs negative and foreign energy really well

With the light of a full moon: the full moon represents new beginnings and holds strong cleansing power, place on a window sill overnight 

Meditation with a focus on cleansing: sit near or hold your deck, close your eyes, focus on your breathing (count your inhale as 1, exhale 2, inhale 3, etc until 30), then imagine a white, cleansing light enveloping your deck

Make a salt circle around your deck: can get kind of messy, but the salt will absorb negative energy, make sure to dispose of it after!

Put the cards in order (by suit, element, number, or astrology): sorting your deck will give it a fresh start, make sure all the cards are upright as well!

Knock three times: another quick way to cleanse or “wake up” your deck, especially great for after you haven’t used your deck in a while
