Baroness Lubinska who presided over the famous duel between Princess Pauline Metternich and the Countess Kielmannsegg in 1892, insisted that the duelists remove their clothing above their waists to avoid infection in the event that a sword pushed clothing into the wound it caused. Being a doctor, the baroness had seen many instances of septic infection in soldiers for this very reason throughout her years of medical training.

“The cause of the duel is reputed to be an argument over arrangements for the Vienna Musical and Theatrical Exhibition.” - I like these ladies.

My, my, I couldn’t have said it better myself.

There are reasons not to practice certain things in your bedrooms, or in your house. Why summon spirits into your living space and risk your home’s safety, when you could take a day at the park? Why bring in energies you only need for a moment into your house, where they maybe stay and accumulate? This is doubled if you’re working with unstable or malicious magic. If you have any reason to not want this one spell in your home, go somewhere else to cast it. There’s no reason to put your living space unnecessarily at risk.

If you're still doing readings, could I please get one regarding how my romantic life in 2019 will be? - S. Thanks in advance if you can do this c:

If you put aside your ego, your vulnerabilities and your insecurities, this year could be transformative for you. You’ll experience new things, new types of relationships, a new type of softness in your romantic life as long as you let go of that what holds you back, be it social expectations or fear of rejection.

If it's for us to decide who gets to see it, doesn't that mean if we're okay with our questions being seen publicly, we do choose who sees it?

Which is why you'll notice that I do in fact do anon readings.

There's still a complicated emotion I get of dislike though, about doing them and posting the reading so publicly. I'm still figuring it out, so this may be revised in the near future, but at the moment I feel that by posting it on my blog, even with the requesters permission, it's cheapening the experience and the treating the information without the I don't know.. gravitas? it deserves.

TL;DR You're right, which is why I do anon readings, but that doesn't mean I like it

Why I Like Private Readings

When I do a reading from you, I'm giving you a gift of insight. It's a precious thing, from me to you, a private thing. It's for you to decide how to distribute it, who's eyes get to consume it. This knowledge belongs to you now, and no one else. 

That's why I hate doing anon readings. This wisdom, this inkling about the future, is for you and not the masses.

Please don't think this means I'm shitting on how other people live their lives. Witchcraft, divination, like many other things, is personal. And who am I to dictate how others should live their lives?

Your tarot reading was so insanely on the nose and so helpful, omg, I feel like I have so much clarity now. I’m actually really motivated to make some changes now 😁

Dude, I’m so happy I could help! Thank you for leaving a review for me :)

[horseandhare-blog]

Could I please have a (sober) reading :P I’m just looking for some insight into a romantic situation. What I want and what I should do are very different and it’s hard XS

You most definitely can you hilarious individual you!

Literally the cards were very straight up about this: dump ‘em and someone new, someone strong and generous will come into your life. If you wanna know more feel free to message me off anon for a longer reading.
