Hello! May I have a card for my friendship with Josh? Thank you! -H
Hey there! I pulled the 9 of Cups. Your friendship is a great one where you both feel satisfied and get what you need out of the friendship. There’s also a possibility of there being more to it under the surface.
Hello. What's going to happen between my crush Ryan and I? Thank you so much. Hope you're good.
Hey, for you I pulled the Wheel of Fortune. You need to let destiny do its thing, and trust that what is meant to be will be.
Well lately I have just found someone who I feel is just connected to me completely and honestly it rather freaks me out. But inwas wondering if you could see if there is any true connection between J and I if that is no bother, thank you!
For you I pulled The Tower. Its possible there is a true connection between you and J, but there’s also may be something missing. Something they are holding back.
Hey there! Can I please get a general reading (over my love life) for these next several months
Hey! For you I pulled the Daughter of Pentacles, a reminder to stop daydreaming, and make your plans happen!
Free Readings Are Closing.
I will be closing the readings early. I forgot how much energy it takes to do these and I got an overwhelming response. I have stopped taking requests, I will be closing the askbox, and finishing what I have in my inbox as of now.
Thank you everyone!
Today’s card is pulled from Lavish Earth’s Crystal Affirmation Deck. (Omg, I love this deck.)
Hematite is about letting changes happen as they need to and to love the moment you are currently in.
Hi! I was the career reading, is there anything I can do to make it go smoother, and I'm confused as to may, is there a way to know a little more about the high Priestess and what she's trying to tell me for May, thank you!
Hey, so the High Priestess I believe is telling you that you’ll learn some new things about yourself, your beliefs, and maybe the same of anyone else close to you or working with you, if there is someone working with you. As for what you can do to make everything go smoother, I pulled The Lovers which I believe is a reminder to stay true to yourself, your beliefs, and also look for support from those close to you when you need it. Hope this helps.
Hello, how are you?hope better... Can i ask about my relationship with Rui? Will our relationship get better and strong that are now? Will we be together this week? He really love me? Thank you dear.
Will your relationship grow stronger - Daughter of Pentacles - NoWill you be together this week - Son of Swords - YesDoes he really love you - 4 of Cups - No
Hi hun, hope you is fine. Can i ask about my relationship with R and our future?
Hey there! I pulled the Son of Pentacles, your relationship and future will remain loyal.
Hello there! :) could you please read about how my transition would be? I am moving to a different country. Thanks a lot
Hey! I pulled Justice, a card for decisions and karma.
Hi! May I please have a career reading for April, May, June, thinking of starting my spiritual coaching services starting April so I just wanna get a glimpse of how that will go, thank ya kindly 💕💕💕
Hey there! April - 10 of Wands - You’ll have some struggle, of course for a new venture. Hang in thereMay - The High Priestess - You’ll have some things to figure out yet.June - 10 of Pentacles - You’ll have your stuff down and start down a road to happiness career-wise.

Tips/Donations are still a thing that’s greatly appreciated.

PSA - PLEASE READ AND SPREAD HE WORD!!!
IF YOU SEE THIS PLANT AT ALL, DO NOT TOUCH IT!!!
Giant hogweed (Heracleum mantegazzianum) is an invasive herb in the carrot family which was originally brought to North America from Asia and has since become established in the New England, Mid-Atlantic, and Northwest regions of the United States. Giant hogweed grows along streams and rivers and in fields, forests, yards and roadsides, and a giant hogweed plant can reach 14 feet or more in height with compound leaves up to 5 feet in width.
Giant Hogweed sap contains toxic chemicals known as Furanocoumarins. When these chemicals come into contact with the skin and are exposed to sunlight, they cause a condition called Phytophotodermatitis, a reddening of the skin often followed by severe blistering and burns. These injuries can last for several months, and even after they have subsided the affected areas of skin can remain sensitive to light for years. Furanocoumarins are also carcinogenic and teratogenic, meaning they can cause cancer and birth defects. The sap can also cause temporary (or even permanent) blindness if introduced into the eyes.
If someone comes into physical contact with Giant Hogweed, the following steps should be taken:
Wash the affected area thoroughly with soap and COLD water as soon as possible.
Keep the exposed area away from sunlight for 48 hours.
If Hogweed sap gets into the eyes, rinse them with water and wear sunglasses.
See a doctor if any sign of reaction sets in.
If a reaction occurs, the early application of topical steroids may lessen the severity of the reaction and ease the discomfort. The affected area of skin may remain sensitive to sunlight for a few years, so applying sun block and keeping the affected area shielded from the sun whenever possible are sensible precautions PLEASE, DO NOT JUST READ AND SCROLL! THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT AND POTENTIALLY LIFE-SAVING INFORMATION!!!
Extra note: if you live in Oregon, New Jersey, Michigan or New York and see one of these, call your state’s department of agriculture to report it, and trained professionals will come kill it before it can produce seeds and spread.
Frankly, if you see one in general, probably call your DOA and see if there’s a program in place.
Do not burn it, because the smoke will give you the same reaction.
If for some ungodly reason there isn’t a professional who can handle it for you (and please, please use a professional), the DOA of New York has [this guide] for how to deal with it yourself.
OH MY FUCK I HAVE THESE IN MY BACKYARD.
Fucking invasives. Signal boost.
Re-reblogging because I checked Snopes, and not only is this shit true, but the text on this is pretty much the same as it is there! Stay safe, kiddos.
According to the US Department of Agriculture, these are currently the states and provinces in North America where Giant Hogweed is present. Even if your state/province is “clear” that doesn’t mean that it is not there. If you see Giant Hogweed in your yard or anywhere please call your DOA! This stuff is mad deadly!

Also here is a human for size reference. Since they are huge it should be easy enough to see and spot when fully grown.
The burns can also be very bad, far worse than any poison ivy. Just Google ‘Giant Hogweed Burns’ and you’ll see. It can cause bad blistering, red painful rashes, and more. Please be careful of this plant!
They exist in Austria and Germany too. Please be careful!
Also, if you are in the Iowa/Minnesota area (maybe farther, I don’t exactly know), there is a close relative (also invasive) with yellow flowers called wild parsnip.
Flowers (source):
Leaves (source):
It only gets to about half the size of giant hogweed but has all the same toxic effects. The plants in the pictures look small but I’ve seen ones at least 6 feet tall with stems two inches thick.
A lot of pictures available of giant hogweed are fullsized and in bloom. Just because it lacks the flowers doesn’t mean it’s not hogweed! It is dangerous well before that point.
As seen above, another important detail when identifying them can be the stems. They often have this reddish speckling, and are covered in bristly hairs. Like the rest of the plant, you should absolutely not touch them either.
You can see here how the redness is mostly on larger, older portions of the stems.
For those of you in Ontario, here is a link to some more information via Ontario’s Invading Species Awareness Program . It has details on the plant’s growth, removal methods, and groups you can report sightings to.
Unfortunately I lack information on herbicide use, but if the responsibility of removing giant hogweed somehow falls to the owner, please research local laws/restrictions concerning the use of things such as glyphosate (roundup). It is always possible to make things worse instead of better, so exercise caution in all areas, not just the handling/disposal of the plant.
This is not bullshit. My sister works for the Cooperative Extension in New York and this is a big P.R. focus for them. They have trouble because somebody may spot some of these on a neighbor’s property and call it in, but they can’t get permission to go in and take it out because the neighbors think it’s “pretty” or they “natural” and want it to stay.
Here’s another thing about it that makes it dangerous and maybe might scare some people into doing something about it: this time of year, (winter) the dried stuff is tailor-made for attracting kids: long, light, jointed. It looks like bamboo and they will use it to frame up little huts, make beaded necklaces, use as “sword.”, etc. The worst is it’s hollow which makes it perfect for BLOW GUNS. Imagine getting that stuff on your lips….
I work at an environmental science college and can also confirm this. This stuff is bad bad bad news.
To all you aspiring herbalists and just nature adventurers: please, pelase be careful
It’s in Washington State too. :/
PS: giant hogweed and poison hemlock (a smaller, also toxic relative) like to grow in similar conditions. When in doubt, handle with gloves.
So here’s whats up...
I’ve been semi-inactive and here’s why.
If you follow my tarot blog, you may have seen a post a while back about how I was struggling with depression. I do not take any sort of medication for either my depression or anxiety. I have my own reasons for this that I currently do not wish to discuss. Just like anyone else, I go through high points and low points in my life, and have to deal with each accordingly. Sometimes when I go through the low points, stepping away from the internet almost completely helps tremendously.
Right now, I’m dealing with the aftermath of my depression my home life (aka I’m cleaning because that’s the first thing that goes when I get depressed.) After this week I will be coming back with posts to all three blogs. I will be bringing back daily tarot, free tarot readings, and possibly pick a card. I will be posting on Witch’s Studyblr, and I’m working on some posts for my main blog as will. The give away will officially be posted on April 1st as well and I actually have worked out a deal with one of my favorite Etsy shops for it. Happiness.
I hope you all are doing well. I’m going to go bust my ass some more. <3

In your future, I see ... lots of rainbow bears holding some sort of concert.
UM
The 10 months of tarot giveaway!
I have absolutely no reason for doing this giveaway other than I want others to have copies of my very favorite decks. I will be giving away a deck every month for the rest of 2016.
Every deck is new, sealed and ready to use. And you never know, I might sneak more goodies into the package when it heads your way.
The March deck is The Druidcraft tarot. This tarot deck has been a steady companion for about the last five years. It has clear imagery, a superb guidebook, and solid cardstock. I also think it’s a great starter deck if you’ve just become interested in tarot.
Rules and whatnot:
• reblogs count
• you need to be following me at the time I draw the winner
• please be over 18 yrs old
• do not tag as a giveaway or do anything to get my tumblr space censured - this is not affiliated with tumblr in any way (etc. etc. etc.)
• I’ll be drawing a winner on March 25th.
