I need some help from Tarot Readers...

So; to keep this short and sweet, I’d love to be a Tarot Reader too!! But, I don’t know how to become one.

What I mean is; do I have to start charging people for readings? And, do I have to have a lisence? Or do I have to be a certain age?

I really don’t know how to start this up!! So any and all help will be greatly appreciated!! Thank you very much for your time and I hope you have a wonderful day!!

How to Hold a Wand!!

A wand is a tool that’s really only there to help with the amplification of your energy as well as direct/focus it.

I’ve been seeing numerous people on the land of the interwebs holding their wand “incorrectly,” and I just wanted to correct them! This is by no means, a call out post; it is simply to inform others! In my opinion, there is one truly effective way to hold a wand; you can still hold it whichever way you want, but I feel as though holding the wand with your fingertips only is an extremely limiting thing to do.

Your body’s energy can be released throughout the entirety of your being; but to logically apply your full force of energy, you’d use your main energy points. The Chakras! Don’t get me wrong, the body has many different Chakras; but for the purpose of this post; I’m only referring to the main seven plus the ones in your hands and feet!!

In folklore there’s images and stories of witches hexing people by pointing their fingers, they didn’t have nor use wands. Their fingers were their wands as the hands have an effective ability to receive and give energy. You’ll want the end of your wand to touch the palm of your hand(in the center) where the Chakra is located.

Wands are amplifiers and direct / focus the energy you release. There is no such thing as a powerful wand, it's about how well it resonates with you, how well a wand can release your energy, some of us are able to feel the energy flow. Ok sure you can add corresponding items to empower a wand, but at the end of the day it's still you sending your energy through it. If you can't feel the energy run through it then practise, try different wands or sticks if you are planning on making your own. For information about this, please refer to my post: How to find and make your wand.

What you need to identify is if there is a comfortable flow of energy or is it blocked? Holding the wand properly will help you to figure out if the wand is right for you or not.

If you're to hold a wand with your fingertips like a dainty fairy then you are limiting the energy flow.

We don't want this, why limit yourself?

An Online Book of Shadows!

Post 1!

Apollo

Also known as: Apollon, Apellon, Phoebus, Apollo, Aplu.

So, I’m pretty sure we’ve all heard of Apollo; the Golden Boy of the Olympian Pantheon. He is a spirit of healing, hunting, music, poetry, and prophecy. Although he never really took over Helios’ function(s), he definitely does overshadow him(I’ll have another post up on Helios soon). Apollo radiates such dazzling charisma that he was eventually venerated a solar deity.

To call someone an “Apollo,” is to imply that they are blindingly handsome. He is a beautiful killer. He is a master healer because he is a master of epidemic, plague, and disease. He’ll lift and inflict them as he pleases. He attacked the Greeks with a plague during the Trojan War; and it can be argued, I think, that he got a little “trigger happy,” with the possibility of WWIII breaking out(COVID-19 is what I’m referencing). He is also blamed for sudden deaths; as his arrows kill instantly.

Now; let’s talk about some of his myths!

“...the birth of Apollon. In her wanderings the...goddess Leto visited all the mountains and islands of Greece...They(the inhabitants) all feared to receive the mighty god who was about to be born. They were all richer than the little, unfruitful island crag of Delos, to which Leto now appealed…”(page 113, The Gods of the Greeks, C. Kereny.)

This myth is arguably the most popular one regarding Apollo’s origin. Leto, who was one of Zeus’ many conquests, was trying to hide from Hera(Zeus’ jealous wife). However, Apollo is also described as coming from a land in the North, which would be Hyperborea. Alternative myths say that Apollo and his mother arrived in Greece in the form of wolves; one myth saying that Leto traveled alone as a pregnant wolf.

Hyperborea’s location has never been identified; nor is it clear if the place exists in the physical realm. I personally believe that its location is in the Spirit realm. But, there’s this one theory that suggests that it’s in the extreme north, near the Arctic Circle. There are just so many conflicting theories that this post would take forever to get through if I were to list out all of them! But, if you truly would like to know the others; just let me know, and I’ll be happy to share.

Apollo is the Greek male deity with the greatest number of male lovers. In general, his relationships with men are happier than his relationships with women. Apollo is the patron and sponsor of young men, teaching them music, divination, and various sports.

He does not have an official “wife,” as most of the women he pursues flee from him. Which I find quite odd… Especially for that time period. He’s incredibly handsome, brilliant, rich, and royal(not to mention, an actual god). But, alas; some run from him, while others commit suicide rather than submit to him. The others who don’t flee, meet a tragically fatal end anyway. What’s going on?

If we take a much closer look at this phenomenon; the women he pursues are rarely mere mortals. Although now trivialized as Nymphs or princesses, many of them were powerful goddesses. The big three Olympians; Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades, all “married” female deities to cement their own right to power. Apollo’s path to power, on the other hand, is reminiscent of the character Sylar from the television series, Heroes. He absorbs and takes over the powers of others. Once he killed the Serpent at Delphi, for example, he could then appear/manifest as a snake.

Apollo protects his devotees and their cattle and livestock. He is loyal to those he loves. Apollo is a master healer who can heal anyone except those he, himself has slain. He’s the spirits’s doctor, too, healing them when they are ailing
