ONE CARD TAROT READINGS maybe 2 || CURRENTLY OPEN, (Iâm new bear with me)
JUDGEMENT (Reversed)
The judgement card, to me, is one of criticism and self-awareness of your actions, as well as self introspection. So When I see it reversed, i can't help but feel that there's a lack of thought that is going into something that you're doing.  I can't shake that feeling that something might be rushed and/or not completely fleshed out before you're moving ahead-- and the one setting that pace is yourself. If you're uncertain about something, its best to discern the best course of action before acting-- and this  might be the sign you need to hit pause and be sure everything is where you want it to be before doing something irreversible, or more permanent.
DEATH
I drew a second card pertaining to your situation-- Death. And of course, Death is all about  change and self-transformation. Together I believe, with Judgement as it is means that once you make this decision or do this action, would be a new chapter for you; however big or small it may seem. Even a part of you may change, once you let go of something that has been holding you back, even if it's this decision or action alone.
Considering both are Major Arcana, there's a high chance (but not 100%, of course) of this pertaining to something important to you-- So i personally want to wish you the best, whatever you decide to do!
You got this :)
ONE CARD TAROT READINGS, may be 2 || CURRENTLY OPEN
Iâve been gone for quite a bit, havenât I?
Nonetheless, Iâve gotten rusty on my intuitive senses, and figured that this will help me practice (for free, of course). Here are some rules for this:
WHAT TO DO:
Just send me something in my inbox saying that you want a one-card reading. If you want to be specific, you MAY provide a question, but its not necessary. However, it does improve the preciseness of what I say, so that it may cater to the question specifically. These will be posted as public posts as to inform those interested about card meanings, but instead of your info, it can be a number of your choice from 1-1000. Avoid â420âł, â69âł and the like, not because of their implications, but others are very likely to do the same thing and thus confusing numbers.Â
In short, you send in your request for a one card pull with a number between 1-1000 in my inbox. You may have a question attached if youâd like. A new post pertaining to you will have the number you chose on it.
(If you want your reading privately answered, I can do that!)
Anything to avoid me turning on anon, because thatâs where dreams go to die.
LIMITATIONS:
NO Health/ Pregnancy questions. Those are severely heavy topics that you should really take other means of finding out and dealing with other than Tarot and my flighty intuitive sense. Tarot and Psychic work should never substitute seeing a doctor or getting treatment.
Thereâs NO Guarantee I will get to your reading, unfortunately. I will certainly try to, but sometimes life gets pretty darn distracting. Iâm also grappling with confidence issues, but thatâs exactly why Iâm putting myself out here to do this.
I am an intuitive reader. The card drawn only gives a ball park, but I do communicate with guides, angels, ancestors, and the like to help deepen the meaning to the card, and let my intuition guide me if all else fails. Sometimes it will have nothing to do with the card, or vaguely tied into the card.
_______________
Iâll be using The Shadowscapes Tarot Deck for this (yâknow, the one I absolutely love to use). Iâll be opening my inbox soon :)
DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for any damage done by uninformed decisions based off of anything said or done here. Meaning, please, do not take any advice here in substitution for any medical or psychological help you may need, or any treatment you may be getting or will get.
You have the power to fight dark or negative entities.
It may seem obvious, sure, I was just under what I presume to be an attack from a negative entity. Iâm not sure what prompted it, but goes to show that no one is exempt from these kinds of beings I guess. I felt TREMENDOUSLY nihilistic and depressed, as well as low self-worth in the blink of an eye, with nothing prompting such attitudes. Also my microwave decided to go on the fritz, flickering on and off, and beeping. I checked the plug and the wiring, so nothing was wrong with the microwave, and the circuit it was on was fine too, as everything else on it was running smoothly.Â
 So today, I remind people that you DO have the power to overcome these entities-- your guides, angels, and those who watch over your well being will not fight for you, but with you. If you suspect youâre under attack, or enacting a spiritual practice or habit, put a thick âshield of lightâ around you. visualize it keeping all your light in, and all the dark out. Remember that you are okay. That nothing can hurt you unless you let it. That youâre being actively protected by your guides and guardians, and that they love you. That will heighten your vibrations so that negativity canât touch it with âwhat ifâ, or âbutâs. Â
I know that smoke cleansing has been known to help (sage and/or rosemary), as well as salt, blessed or charged water in a spray bottle (Hey, Iâve seen and done it before, does wonders), seashells, eggshells, and anything that helps support the mentality that youâre of light and you canât be harmed by whatever is with you.
I did what I needed to do, and the negativity seemed to taper off. The Microwave finally stabled as I did that. Then I felt like me again. and whenever you know for sure the negative energy is gone, be sure to thank your guardian angels and/or guides! They drove out the energy as much as you did. And take the credit that you owe yourself! You did avert a disaster, after all :)
Thatâs All I wanted to say-- protecting yourself can be as simple or complex as you want it to be! Just make sure you do it when you are doing any distinctly spiritual practice, or suspect you have a negative entity present.
So, you started to try to use your intuition-- and youâve hit your first snag. What exactly is intuition? Arenât you just imagining things? This post is a bit of a way of addressing this problem that Iâve hit so, SO many times.
The short, underexplained answer, is that intuition takes a bit of imagination to work sometimes. So you can use your imagination part of the way, and let intuition carry whatâs important in terms of a spiritual connection. The word âFaithâ gets thrown around the Christian community like no other, but it really does help in establishing an intuitive connection to your helpers in the astral, no matter your religious stance.
The longer, better explained answer under the cut since I donât like making walls of text and flooding dashes!
Why do I need to use my intuition in the first place to connect to spirits?
From what I understand, spirits canât influence the physical the way we can. Spirits only have what it takes to forge half the link to influencing the physical. After all, they are not physical themselves. They are more ideas than they are physical people with functional bodies. Feelings, sensations, thoughts and emotions without a physical form. Moving or making something appear in the physical takes an awful amount of focus and power- which most spirits do not possess. With the help of your intention and free will, you can finish that bridge to the astral, and communicate-- but even then, the veil is thick between the phsycial and astral, because of how different our worlds are.Â
and hence, everything is VERY subtle when it comes to communication. They can influence fickle things like our intuition and imagination, so thatâs why mediums usually emphasize this sense.
What is Intuition and what is imagination?
The differences in between a spirit contacting you via your intuition and you making something up is very subtle, yet just as important.
When you are using your imagination, I liken it to daydreaming, and youâd be asking yourself âWouldnât it be neat if...?â. This requires active thinking that feels like youâre using your head. If it feels like youâre thinking too hard on it, you are using your imagination and creative thinking to make some thing up.
Intuition is less about fulfilling a daydream and using your head, and more about using your heart or core. Often enough, my guides and companions usually speak when an accompanying feeling spreads through my core or heart-- and lets my brain know that this is not imagination at all. Its an inner knowing that what you just felt or heard is truly real, and no logical explanation why. You may not feel the same feelings of warmth or amiable joy as I do when I hear from them, as everyone functions differently-- but the inner knowing will always be there. THAT is your intuition, and not imagination! However, its likely you arenât making anything up-- after all, anything is possible. Furthermore imagination isnât necessarily bad in terms of communication.
~Using imagination to your advantage~
âBut Pip, isnât imagination a bad thing?â you might ask, and the answer is âOnly if it gets in the way of a goalâ. Visualization practices is the best example of this. Personally, I do this following exercise as visualization.
Think of a place you and your spiritual friend would like to meet. It could be your favorite place, their favorite place, a mix of both, neither, a void, you name it! Try and decorate the place with as many details as you can. Use your imagination! make it look pretty/cool!Â
Then, imagine you waiting at a spot in this area you created with your imagination. Imagine simply waiting for spirit to join you. Make sure you visualize a light around you that will not invite any ill-meaning spirits.
This is where your intuition comes in rather than your imagination. let go of what happens in this scene, and let spirit control what happens next, and how they show up. Open your mind, and whatever happens will happen, and you no longer are the support of this place anymore. Let things run. If your spirit never shows up, try calling out to them (mentally, of course). If they donât show up, It might not be time yet, or they might be busy. Give it time!
Its practices like this that make me think that imagination can feed into your intuition! Just know the difference, and believe your guide or companion wants to interact with you, and be open to the idea. No one can get through to a closed mind, of course!
If you want to practice, you can start by asking yes or no questions to spirit. Familiarize yourself with how you feel when you hear yes and no, and pay attention to the feelings you get when you ask! I used this when my ex wanted to break up with me. Man was I wrong to ignore it lol
So there you have it-- the differences between imagination and intuition and why youâre not really making it up! cheers~
A spread to close the day with that I use, to reflect on how the day went and to truly have a fresh start to the next day. I think its good to have closure to a day, rough or easy. I also have a matching dawn spread, so Iâll post that sometime in the future. Figured I share some of the spreads I made on here!
Pick a stone from above to learn what your guides want you to know right now about your current situation. Donât think too much about it, and allow your intuition to guide you to the stone that attracts you energetically. Thereâs Botswana Agate (top left), Rose Quartz (top right), Angelite (lower left), and Malachite (lower right). Again, do not think too much. Trust your guides and your inner guidance to pick the ârightâ one. <3 Then find your stone below the cut, for your reading, enjoy :)
BOTSWANA AGATE
Looks like youâre in a place where youre seeking knowledge from someone who knows better than you, but having no luck doing so. But have confidence in yourself and take things into your own hands-- you know waay more than youâre giving yourself credit for. This is a message of confidence. You have so many abilities and youâre selling yourself short. You donât have to live off of anyone elseâs example but your own--- no matter how much your fears tell you that you have to seem better than another person. Your guide will help you treat your strengths as just that-- strengths-- and enjoy the person you are rather than who you want to be, and have that faith that things will improve as you get the chance to shine. :)
ROSE QUARTZ
Are you struggling to provide for a family, or canât be there for a friend even though you really want to? Maybe you said something wrong to someone, and youâre scared youâve wronged them? But the thing is-- this is a reminder to not think of yourself as defeated. Dontâ lose hope, Let those around you guide you to the place you need to be and help you, offering their insights and hopes. You have the ones you love and care for, and your victory over your troubles will be theirs as well-- celebrate together, and be with others. Its okay to ask for help with your current problems. and certainly donât let your ego disillusion you-- your friends care about you.
ANGELITE
Dontâ be scared of meeting others and otherâs opinions! in fact, I think you may be a little iffy on this whole guide thing. which is okay. this spread, if it is referring to that, is showing that your guide is very happy to meet you, and is looking forward to the days to come with you, ready to take you by the hand and go solve the worldâs mysteries, as well as some of your own. If that is not the case, this must be referring to the fact that you arenât ever alone. You have your friends, your guides, and everyone you care about, caring about you! and youâll never be alone as long as that persists. Though, if you are feeling lonely, you might be able to hang out with a friend soon, and you two will get to know eachh other much better than you do now. :)
MALACHITE
Choosing Malachite, this spread means youâre shackling yourself to avoid anything new and changing in fear of loss. But the first thing is to realize that you are seemingly finding every excuse to not accept the change that you might have to go through. Though-- do this with kindness and generosity, and forgive yourself. Forgiving yourself is key to being able to move forward with the change youâre trying to accept. Forgiving yourself for holding things up, for not accepting the change... and then, letting your âtransgressionâ go. Its fair to yourself to forgive yourself, as anyone other than yourself has probably forgiven you already.
I was confused on this little thing recently, and I THINK I got it figured out as far as my own spirit circle. But basically, Iâve wondered for the longest time if my Spirit Guides were more supposed to be friends, or supposed to be teachers and mentors only.
Then I stumbled on the topic of Spirit companions-- which are literally friends, but in the astral. I wondered the similarities and differences for a long, almost too long of a time, until one of my guides came along and helped out a bit.
So under the cut is what Iâve concluded...mostly. Life is a classroom and never really stops teaching us lessons, so I canât say with 100% certainty, but This is what I figured out for myself! I also will get into what spirit companions are, since it doesnât seem to be a widely known subject. <3
What is a Spirit Companion?
Spirit Companions are just that: Spirits who have taken a liking to you, and hang around you as any human friend would. Most spirit companions are âSoldâ to willing patrons (I say sold in quotations for a reason, Iâll explain in a second) and become friends with each other. Though, I have a firm belief that spirits can just be passing by and decide they like the energy you carry, or want to get to know you better, You might frequent their favorite place, and either they get curious about you, or vice versa-- meaning, buying a friend isnât really the only way to go imo.
I mentioned the sale of these spirit companions to people who are willing to pay for the process of binding. Some say its borderline slavery to these spirits, shackling them to an owner. Some say the spirit willingly complies and becomes a friend in which the âshackleâ is just a tether to the physical plane so that they may communicate with you better-- and Iâll leave that for you all to study, since I wonât open that can of worms.
Spirit companions are not human most times-- though, they can be. They can be dragons, mermaids, faeries, demons, angels, and so on so forth-- much like guides.
What makes Companions different from Guides
So, Guides tend to be in a position where they are helpful to your spiritâs evolution. You are a spirit having a human experience, after all-- so they are on the sidelines to help you achieve your goals from before and sometimes even after birth, as long as they donât conflict. They have your best interest at heart, and simply wonât give you bad advice. They are evolved spirits who have either incarnated a ton of times to have learned most of their lessons, or in the case of deities, angels, and the like, they simply donât have any reason to mislead you, and carry the wisdom you need.
Companions can be any spirit you allow near you, which means there can be a lot of fake friends among them, or really concerned friends who are dear to your heart. They can be as variable as humans, and moody as them as well. They have themselves as their first priority, which is fine-- but I wouldnât just pour your heart out to them if theyâre not a trusted friend.
Is being a Guide and being a Companion Mutually Exclusive?
This is the hardest thing I was trying to figure out-- but the answer seems to be no. 3 of my 5 current guides have established that they consider themselves my friend, but consider themselves my mentors before a friend. I literally can call them in any time and watch movies, meditate, just communicate, whatever-- as long as it doesnât interfere with my highest good.
As for the other two, theyâre open to the idea, but they arenât really there to be a friend for now, but still love  and nurture my spirit all the same.
If you know your guide, or guides, call them in and ask if you are friends! Donât be afraid of ânoâ for an answer, because thatâs never in stone unless if theyâre feeling strongly about it-- or you. and that certainly doesnât mean they donât care about you! Its often that its because they care about you.
Thatâs about all I wanted to say-- but I hope this helped some people out, if not only myself and my confidence ^^;
Now, this blog would not be complete without a âhow toâ post, would it? Iâm gonna break it down to the best to my knowledge on how to connect to spiritual and your intuition-- or, rather, connecting VIA your intuition, below. These probably wonât be eye-opening to some more seasoned psychics, but if youâre just starting out, sure, go for it!
The âClairsâÂ
The Clairs refer to all of the 5 senses, including a 6th one, Claircognizance. Those would be Clairvoyance (sight), Clairsentience (This could be emotion, but could also be touch), Clairaudience (Hearing), Clairalience (Smell) and Clairgustance (Taste). While the last one I mentioned is a bit rarer to see in people, The others are quite common. These, Called the âClairsâ, means that you have a perception of the respective sense of the astral beings nearby.Â
Clairvoyance, or clear seeing, is the most renowned of these, but gets a misleading reputation, as if the senses are so strong its like a physical presence in the room. The truth is, that isnât the case! In fact, youâre well aware that there is ânothingâ there, when you are clairvoyant. Clairvoyance can be in the form of seeing someone on the physical plane, but also can be dreams and visions! In my experience, Iâve seen the latter quite often.Â
Clairsentience refers to clear feeling. Since âFeelingâ is a bit vague, I like to include both definitions under this category, since both has happened to me and others before. The First one would be the emotional aspect. You may feel âinappropriate emotionsâ for your situation. These often are from spirits in general, so if you feel happiness around something that doesnât normally make you giddy, the spirit youâre communicating with likes that particular thing. Its complex, but itâs certainly a thing. One of my guides likes yellow flowers for that reason. Iâm pretty indifferent about them, but she absolutely admires them, so I pick some dandelions in summer when i get the chance.
The other half of Clairsentience is physical touch! This is much more simple. This can range from a slight poke to the side, to a reassuring hand on your shoulder, to a full embrace. They are just as capable of touch as humans are, and know which kinds of touch are ones you need to feel. They also can poke you in places on your body that need attention, like if you put your hand near a sharp object and youâre about to have it cut. They might make your hand uncomfortable and prompt you to move it, to keep it safe. That kind of thing!
Clairaudience is when you are able to hear sounds that are associated with the spirit in question. This is my primary communication method, if iâm honest-- and most of these sounds are within your mind. Like Clairvoyance, these inputs are usually not overwhelmingly present-- theyâre subtle. Its less about hearing things, than it is knowing how you feel when youâre being spoken to. How you feel when you hear âYesâ is much different from what you feel when you hear âNo.â So after a bit of practice, you can kind of âtranslateâ these feelings into speech. They also include a dog barking if they like animals, or music playing if they want you to hear a song, or a song they like, or things of that nature.
Claircognizance is simply knowing something you had no way of knowing. Ever feel something was âoffâ but then you were right about it being off in the end? That is claircognizance. Sometimes spirit guides give you the knowledge you need to advance in life if thereâs a result that wasnât really planned or supposed to happen according to pre-incarnation.
Clairalience is smelling things that arenât there to smell. This is more common than you think! Scent is heavily linked to the memory part of your brain. So lets say your grandmother passed away, and you suddenly smell the perfume she always had on, but youâre on vacation and alone in the hotel. You may not have even thought of her before then. That is because scents trigger all kinds of memories, and spirits know that. I have a friend that actually can âsniffâ out the presence of certain spirits, since they have an energetic signature-- kind of like perfume, but doesnât smell like anything. The best she can describe it is a scent! Some DO have a warm or floral scent about them. She also says her guide smells like cinnamon buns :)
So now that all of that is out of the way, if you ever want to practice any of these, intuition is key here. Know that what you are perceiving truly isnât there in the physical. and ask yourself these questions if you want to perceive a guide. Ask your guide for help perceiving them, and know theyâll follow through.
Try to clear your mind, and objectively ask yourself these questions.:
âWhat do I perceive right now in the physical?â
âIf I were to perceive something in the astral, what form would it take?â
âWhat would my guide sound like?â
âWhat would my guide look like?â
âWhat would my guide smell like?â
âWhat would my guide say to me, right now?â
Trust that thereâs answers to these, but donât overthink it! the first answer is probably the right answer! I use âWhat wouldâ instead of âWhat isâ, because that helps take pressure off of trying to take on answers and straining your abilities. The important thing is to be open to almost anything.
And as always, make sure you stay on your guard. If ANYTHING comes through that makes you feel unsafe, you have every right to cease all communication and protect yourself. I personally envision a veil of light surrounding me, kind of like a shield from anything bad that could harm me, but depending on your beliefs, you may smoke cleanse, add salt cirrcles, or do any ritual that puts up your spiritual shield. The more you think you may be in danger, the more danger youâre in, in my experience, so do whatever makes you feel safe.
May your guide make themselves apparent to you, and I hope this little doohickey has helped with understanding the Clairs!
Donât worry, iâm still @spiritwings I just lost my login info because iâm a memory void-- but This spread is for a communicative purpose. This is when you feel that tug to communicate with your guide, but you have no idea what about, or where to begin communicating!
I used to be @spiritwings donât mind me-- This is a spread for if youâre stuck between 2 choices, but you have no idea where to start the decision process!
