28 | he/him | transmasc | queer | You can call me Llew 😁 I've been a casual tarot reader for a few years, and I want to take it a bit more seriously now. I'm also a hellenic polytheist!
Hi all, I'm Llew (pronounced like Lou). I decided to make a blog for tarot stuff!
About me:
- Super queer
- Old™
- Disabled (fibro, tourette's, some other neurodivergent conditions)
- My favorite card is the magician
- I also practice/plan to practice some other divination systems as well 😊 I am rusty at it, but I have done cleromancy before, and I'm interested in lenormand, astragalomancy (divination with dice), and bibliomancy (divination with books)
Feel free to ask me questions if you're curious about anything else!
Some things I post will be NSFW, and I'll both mark those posts as such.
Finally, I am anti-ai and will never knowingly use ai for any part of my divination or posts. Not photos, not dividers, not the readings themselves, not even just to have the reading be worded better or whatever. The only time there could potentially be a slip-up is if I use a photo from pexels or a banner from another tumblr user that I failed to realize was ai (I'd be pretty surprised if people on here were using ai to make banners though). I am pretty good at identifying it, however.
If you found any of my readings helpful and want to toss some coin in the metaphorical tip jar, it would be deeply appreciated.
Editing to add after looking through my followers to yeet any bots, if you're a terf, gender essentialist, exorsexist, or otherwise feel that trans people (including nonbinary people) aren't real or should have gender affirming care restricted or taken from us, this is not a safe space for you. Skedaddle!
Free readings are only open when there's a post up that is not marked as closed, but I'll always accept paid readings
DM me and we can work out a price that works for you :3
A wonderful spin on my "Ego Death". Absolutely stellar work!
Same as always - ain't tat artist, but I’m always cool with anyone getting my art inked. All I ask that folks consider supporting my work by picking a tat flash, or something else up from my web shop if they are getting some ink done. Thank you! 🙏
Closed for the time being due to capacity, but keep an eye out for when I switch it back to open :3 If you send me a question after this, do not expect a response until I open this again!
Please read the entire post before requesting
Hi all! Opening for free readings again! I will mark this as closed when I'm done for the time being.
Please feel free to either DM me your question or send it to me in an ask. If you send me an ask off anon, let me know if you want/are okay with it being publicly answered. If you don't specify, I will default to answering privately. I would also really appreciate it if you'd be willing to give me a review that I could post publicly on my blog here.
Boundaries:
- I cannot offer legal, medical, or financial advice. Please seek out the appropriate professionals.
- Sexual/NSFW asks are perfectly fine, but if you send an ask on anon or don't have an age listed on your blog, I will not answer it.
I am offering these for free, but I will give priority to folks who donate to my ko-fi. Shoot me a donation and let me know who you are on there, or I can also answer your question on ko-fi! I'm offering one free question, but I will answer additional/follow-up questions for a donation, also! I'm trying to save up to fix my teeth (which have suffered due to ADHD and depression), as well as to try and survive what is happening in the world and the US as a trans disabled person who cannot work a traditional job! Anything helps 😊
May 5 is Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women's Day. A reminder that 84.3 percent of native women have experienced violence. 56.1 percent of native women have experienced sexual violence. And the 3rd leading cause of death for native women is murder.
And they haven't even gathered significant information on native women living in URBAN areas. It could be much higher.
Wtf?? For some reason on browser, my username was showing as "lion-out-divination"? ?????? I thought maybe it was trying to translate it to english or some shit, because llew does mean lion, but I refreshed it and it's fine now?? Has anyone else experienced this??
I thought this might be a fun reading to do! If you're trying to figure out what you want out of kink, or where you should start, I hope this is helpful! Inspired by a reading I did for someone else on the same topic.
If you would also like a personalized, custom reading on this topic you should try, I'd be more than happy to do that for a Ko-Fi donation of $5 or more! Please DM me 😊
If you found this pick a card reading helpful and want to support me, please toss some coin to my Ko-Fi!
Censoring that word in the title so tumblr doesn't get angry at me again 🥲
Pile I
Four of cups, the fool, judgement, two of pentacles
I'm getting a sense of stagnation and disconnect from your sex and/or love life, and this could stem from a lack of balance with other areas of your life, as well as maybe you avoiding your partner or sexual situations because things feel so monotonous and uninteresting. Maybe this part of your life is intentionally unbalanced because you are avoiding sex. It just doesn't feel exciting anymore. Maybe it's hard to advocate for yourself for anything more interesting because your partner or partners are so set in their ways of doing the same thing over and over. And maybe they are perfectly happy with that, but it's clearly not working for you anymore.
I'm not really getting specific ideas for what you should try, it's more along the lines of trying ANYTHING new. You really just need to get kick-started here, you don't need to worry about picking something you'll be into long-term. You just need to become interested in sex again, honestly. This could be anything. It could be something that seems smaller or less intense, or it could be something much more adventurous. It could be as small as new sex positions, even. Of course, please make sure you are being safe as you're starting out, make sure you won't end up in unsafe situations, etc (which is less of a concern if you do decide to just try different sex positions). Maybe looking through websites that list out different kinks and seeing what catches your eye could be a good first step. Maybe there's something you've always wanted to try, but never really felt like you could ask for. Do your research, and then bring some ideas to the table with your partner(s), or seek out folks with similar interests.
Pile II
Ten of wands, ten of swords, ace of pentacles, the chariot, the emperor, the fool
For some reason I felt like I should pull two from the top, center, and bottom instead of just one each like I usually do, which is why there are so many.
What I'm getting from this is that you're a person who really likes being in charge, maybe even need it. Two cards that represent power and control, especially directly next to each other, feels like this is being strongly reinforced here. You might really enjoy being in the dominant position in a power exchange relationship (dom/sub, master/slave, etc). You might even be interested in a total power exchange relationship—but that is a pretty intense dynamic, so it would be best to do this in an already established relationship, as trust plays a vital role in that, even more so than other power exchange relationships.
Part of why I'm mentioning this is because some of these cards seem to be indicating a new relationship. With the ten of swords and ten of wands there, this will either be a relationship ending and then entering another one at some point, or entering a new relationship if you are already single. For those who are currently single, you may have a history of being burned by relationships, or you're just going through something really rough in your personal life right now. If you're currently in a relationship, it feels like you're kind of being run ragged right now. Maybe your needs aren't getting met, or the relationship you're in is just not comfortable or healthy, there's a lot of discord here. These relationship issues could be on top of some really stressful or difficult life situations as well. This relationship has stopped being something you enjoy and has become an obligation, almost a chore. For both those in relationships and those who are single, this new relationship will be a breath of fresh air, and allow you to try some things you maybe haven't been able to try, or haven't been able to try with your current partner.

Eight of wands, the hermit, knight of cups, ten of wands, ace of swords
I think you've thought about it for a long time, and you actually have some ideas of what you want to try, but for some reason, something is holding you back. Maybe work, or fear that you won't find someone who would be willing to try, or is safe, or doesn't meet some other criteria that you need. Maybe you feel like you'd have a hard time finding someone who you won't have to teach a lot of things. Maybe you've just been, or feel like you've been, too busy. This reading is telling you to just go for it. You've dragged your feet about it for a while, and you may even be making excuses for why you can't do it that aren't entirely accurate. It might be time to start strategizing ways you can make it happen if you really want to do so. It's also entirely valid if you just genuinely can't right now, or don't have the energy to, or just don't want to. But it might be worth keeping in mind for when/if you do.
Mini lore snippet lol: at first I just doodled the cat alone in the middle of a page, but I loved him so much I just turned the page and drew the whole thing. He's so great.
"Hello, it's you. A version of you that has found more calm. I've come to remind you that everything you're feeling now isn't a sign that things are going wrong... it's a sign that you're growing. Even when it seems like nothing is happening. Even when there are no great achievements, no applause, no certainties. The simple fact that you're trying to heal, that you're choosing to continue, is already an enormous act of love. I know there were times when you felt broken, as if you'd gotten lost along the way. You walked away from things you held dear. From people. From habits. From ideas that no longer served you well. And although it hurt, it opened up space for you to start truly listening to yourself. To acknowledge what you need. To allow yourself to feel without judgment.
Today, where I am, I can look at myself with more tenderness. I can take care of myself without guilt. And that wasn't a miracle; it was because you started on this path. Because you chose to leave behind what was draining you, and you began to believe, even if only a little, that you deserved better. And yes, you do. You always deserved it. Be kind to yourself. Don't compare yourself. You are quietly blossoming. And I... I am so grateful for that."

"Hello youuuuuuuuuuuuuu, just know that I'm holding you tight, because I know what you're feeling right now. Maybe you're in the middle of a storm. Maybe everything you took for granted is falling apart. Relationships, routines, jobs, beliefs. Maybe you feel like you're losing control. And I understand that fear, because I felt it too.
But I want you to know something very important: what hurts so much now isn't the end. It's the turning point. It's the moment when something old falls away so something new can be born. Even if you don't see it now, you're creating space for a more real life, more yours. What comes after this chaos isn't just better... it's more authentic. More connected to who you truly are. Your strength, your fire, your desire to not dwell on what no longer serves you, are the driving forces behind everything I've built since. Thanks to you, I was able to start over. I was able to find new opportunities. New people. New ways to live my life. And it was because you, at this exact moment, dared to say "enough."
Don't let fear hold you back. You're paving the way, even if it's now filled with ashes. Remember: you're not falling... you're being reborn."

"Hello, it's you, and I want to start by telling you: you did the right thing.
I know you hesitated. That you questioned yourself many times about walking away, about closing cycles, about saying, "This isn't good for me anymore." Maybe you didn't have all the answers, maybe no one understood your decision, but you still kept going. And that... that was an act of profound courage. What you did wasn't running away. It was listening to yourself. It was looking inward and realizing that something no longer resonated with you. And even though you didn't have a plan, your intuition pushed you to move. To look for something more honest, more aligned with your essence. And that saved you. More than once.
Over time, all that seemed vague began to make sense. You learned to trust yourself. To set boundaries. To clearly see where you could and couldn't. You learned to observe without reacting, to think calmly before speaking, to choose from a wiser place. And that wisdom was born in this stage you're going through now, where everything still seems uncertain. Don't apologize for changing. Don't explain so much. Not everyone will understand your path, but that doesn't make it any less valuable. You know what you feel. And your truth is enough, even if no one else sees it."

Please stop trigger tagging with #epilepsy tw/cw/warning/etc.
I need every single person to understand how horrible tumblr’s tagging system is
I go into the tag for epilepsy and its all flashing lights. We can’t use our own tag because people without epilepsy fill it up with improper warnings.
Use ‘flashing’ in place of ‘epilepsy’ in your tags. You aren’t warning people of epileptics, you’re warning us of flashing lights. Please please tag properly. Epileptics say this endlessly and constantly and it’s ignored. You are risking lives by doing this.
Here’s proof of what I mean:
THIS POST IS 100% OKAY TO REBLOG, I ENCOURAGE PEOPLE WITHOUT EPILEPSY TO ESPECIALLY DO SO!
