A lot of witches talk about Tarot, about the questions you can ask, how to cleanse your cards, how to memorize their meanings, and more.

However, rarely have I seen any witch talk about just sitting down with your cards and chatting with them.

In this way, I mean not having a question to ask them beyond, “Whatcha wanna say today?”

This, unbelievably, is how I developed a relationship with my Tarot cards.

To read Tarot, you don’t have to have a question before you begin. Sure, if you have a client then having a question is the best course of action (and is needed); however, if you’re having a one-on-one and are trying to develop your relationship, sit down with your cards and treat them like you would a friend.

Start a conversation.

Ask their opinion.

Tell them about your day.

Let them tell you about their day.

(And on and on and on, ya know)

Your cards are more than just cards. They are more than a business proposition or venture. They are more than just a tool for you to use whenever you deem them appropriate.

You grow, they grow. You stop talking to them, they will become silent too.

So, talk to them. About nothing, about everything. And watch your relationship grow exponentially.

Literally this is like half of my tarot readings

I’ve been thinking about this a lot recently as well. A lot of people think of tarot as just “foretelling the future” but in reality it’s more like an actual, reflective conversation.

Witchcraft & Geekery

5,000/50 Tumblr Apocalypse Giveaway!

Hello fellow witches -

Since joining the tumblr community, I have been blown away by the amount of love and support I have been given by the community (even though I primarily post memes). I’ve been trying to build my platform so I can start to offer other witchcraft info and services. And I recently reached (and well surpassed) two big milestones: 5k followers on my blog and 50 subscribers on my youtube!

In order to say a HUGE THANK YOU to those who have helped me get this far, I have decided to host a giveaway! (And possibly as one last hoorah before tumblr implodes in on itself).

1st Place will receive:

your choice of 1 “Magic Spells” Notebook, either yellow or pink ~ $15

3 spell candles - blue, cream, and pink ~ $1 each

30 sticks of Wildberry Incense - 10 Apple Cider, 10 Frankincense, and 10 Myrrh (for the holidays) ~ $15 altogether

a stick incense burner ~ $2

a quartz pendulum ~ $6

your choice of 5 crystals total (from 1 opalite heart, 1 ruby in kyanite, 2 bloodstone, 2 purple fluorite, and 3 orange calcite) ~ $7

a stick of palo santo wood ~ $1

a bundle of sweetgrass ~ $1

a free 3 card (past, present future) reading from me** ~ $6

2nd Place will receive:

the other “Magic Spells” Notebook ~ $15

a stick of palo santo wood ~ $1

the other 4 crystals ~ $6

a free one card reading from me** ~ $3

**I do not do readings about romantic relationships or medical advice.

The notebooks are kind of quirky – I’m not sure if they were misprinted or designed that way, but they say things like “This magic book is gonna help you,” “Purebook” (not sure what that is), “MAGIC DIABY WITCH ANB WILARD” (my personal favorite) and “Write Dawn Your Wish.” But, I don’t know, I think that makes them rather charming. 🧙‍♀️

The four different types of tarot readings

1.) You ask your deck a question. It gives you the complete opposite of what you want.

2.) MTV Roasts: starring you and your tarot deck.

3.) Me: hey tarot, I need to know what steps I should take in order to do the thing.

Tarot: You should do the thing.

4.) You draw five death cards. You only have one deck.

Ultimate curse:

Take the full and correct name of someone who’s harmed you. Go to a Catholic church, give the priest a small donation, give him the name, and tell him that it’s the name of a dear loved one who has recently passed away and you’d like to have their name included in prayers for the newly deceased.

On Sunday, an entire church will affirm your enemy’s death.

The ancient Egyptians believed that the buzzing of bees was the humming of souls come back from the afterlife. Similarly, in Scotland it was believed that, should your soul leave your body whilst you sleep, it would do so in the form of a bee.
