🌟Tips for interpreting Tarot🌟

1. The most important clues may be in the background!

In the Rider Waite Smith deck, many cards show a figure with a number of significant items behind his or her back. What happens behind one’s back is, for oneself, something unseen, shadowy, something to which one has no conscious access. This could point to the idea that the figure in the foreground is unaware of the nature or scope of their issues. You can’t grasp what you cannot see, and that can reveal a lot about the nature of the card’s meaning.

2. The color of the sky reveals a lot!

Again referencing the Rider Waite Smith deck, the color of the sky on a given card often leads to a simple but important clue for its interpretation.

3. Pay close attention to proportions!

In the image of the Four of Wands, the figures are depicted much smaller than is the case in other images; they fall short. Or perhaps they are of normal height and are painted so small in order to emphasize the comparatively huge size of the wands. This sort of thing can be found in many other cards.

4. Court cards represent developed personalities or facets of oneself!

The Queen: impulsive, an initiator, an investigator (water type)

The King: thorough, intensive, consolidating (fire type)

The Knight: magnifying, expanding, a drawer of consequences (air type)

The Page: makes something tangible out of or with the element in question (earth type)

4. Pay attention to numbers!

Numerology can play a big role in your interpretations of the cards, especially in the Minor Arcana:

Ones (Aces): Something new with vast potential is indicated when you have many aces in your readings. They are pure energy without form - and it depends on you to shape it and bring the opportunities that they represent into fruition. Because they are raw, they are also unstable, and can very quickly overwhelm if not taking care.

Twos: Coming together in pairs is the theme of the twos, and all the complexities that this union represents. We leave the individuality of the ones, and the twos are a taste of union.

Threes: Group dynamics rule the threes in the tarot, and they depict different outcomes that can occur when a group comes together - whether they are groups of individuals, or groups of ideas. Because it is also symbolically thought of as completion (the first polygon, the holy trinity, etc) it also indicates an initial completion of a first phase of some sort.

Fours: The fours usually indicate that some foundation has been created and is ready to grow and evolve. To grow and evolve is the key here, because though the foundation is created, there is some disappointment indicated sometimes because things may not have progressed entirely as hoped for - thus, the fours are also the universe’s way of pushing us to grow and move forward.

Fives: Change, fluctuations and conflict are represented by the fives. After the fours, the fives are amplifications of that same energy. When that energy explodes, the fives ask us to look within ourselves for a deeper reason of why to progress. To move forward and beyond these instabilities, we have to push forward.

Sixes: While the fives represent conflict, the sixes represent the movement away from that conflict into a solution, whether they are internal or external, whether that means reconciliation or letting go. They are the cards of overcoming suffering, light after the dark.

Sevens: When seeing many sevens in a reading it usually indicates that it is a time to step back and introspect. The sevens ask us to assess, and reevaluate whether the path that you are taking is what is best for you. Sometimes this is a lonely pursuit, but this period is needed to go forward with your authentic desires.

Eights: A completion of a second phase is indicated with the eights, and usually corresponds to some sort of achievement, whether in the worldly sense, or in an emotional sense. Growth either way is indicated here, and sometimes it can take place in a form where we least expected it.

Nines: Nearing completion is indicated by the nines, and this can take the form of entering a plateau of some sort. What looks like the finish line, may actually be just a transitory stage. While the feeling of completion is here, it is usually just a pause before the final part of the cycle comes.

Tens: In the tens, we see the actual completion of the cycle, that something has come to a full circle - it indicates that from this point forward, we can move towards a new beginning. ✨🔮✨ Sources: Biddytarot, The Ultimate Guide to the Rider Waite Tarot by Johannes Fiebig and Evelin Burger, Understanding Tarot by Liz Dean

Drying Roses

Get you some roses, silly. Preferably some that have not been treated with anything gross such as pesticides or herbicides. I used to make exceptions if I knew a batch would not be used in skin or food products but now that I have a wee one and furred one I just avoid the nasties entirely. You can’t trust them to not put shit in their mouths.

Pull them off the stems. Shake the seeds out, save them if you want especially if these are roses from your own garden or your mom’s or fancy roses pilfered from someone else’s. Not that I have done that or would condone such things. Ahem. (They were just letting them sit in the compost pile. Perfectly good roses!) Separate all the petals, I get a bit lazy sometimes and it doesn’t have to be perfect. But you don’t want rose boulders. They take forever to dry.

Oh turn your oven on to 200 degrees now. It won’t take long to heat up.

Line some cookie sheets with parchment paper and scatter the petals. Remove any bugs you find. Parchment paper isn’t essential, it’s not like they stick, but it does make moving them off the pan much easier. Pop those bad boys into the oven for ten minutes.

When the timer goes off they should be crunchy. Bone dry. You touch them anything but gentle butterfly kisses and they crumble. If they don’t stick them back in for two minutes. Oh, your house will smell like spring. Its awesome. I have always had the petals darken when I have dried them, it does not bother me. But it might you. White petals do not stay white.

Transfer dry petals to wherever you want them to cool. When cool, stick them in a jar or some other equally sturdy container to store them. Viola. You have dried roses for all your witching needs.

CottageCore Starbucks Drinks And How to Order

These are drinks I personally have tried as a starbucks brista and really like. Also this is a note that I personally am not the biggest fan of coffee (I know, its ironic I work for starbucks) so most of these drinks will either have no coffee or it will not be very strong. Also feel free to modify these however you want! Let me know what you guys think!

Snowy Field Latte 🏞❄

How to order:

Ask for a Matcha Green Tea Latte

Add vanilla bean powder

Add java chips

Sub soy milk

Its a sweet, slightly earthy drink thats a nice dark green. Ask for whipped cream for the "snow" part of the drink. Can also be made as a frappuccino (which is the drink in the picture). This drink has no coffee in it.

Subtle Sweet Peach 🍑

How to order:

Ask for Black Iced tea

If they ask if you want it sweetened say yes

Ask for them to add peach tea

Add light soy milk

Add vanilla syrup

Optional: Ask for a Black ice tea lemonade if you want it to be sweeter

This drink has no coffee in it. The taste is subtle but it is peachy and sweet and the contrast in the cup is really pretty too. The size in the picture is a Venti but you can get any size. Fyi: the drink might taste different every time you're ordering it cause the barista probably won't put the same amount of ingredients in it each time.

Chocolate Covered Strawberries🍫🍓

How to order:

Ask for an iced Mocha

Add white chocolate mocha

Ask for strawberry puree in the sweet cream

Add vanilla syrup

Add foamed sweet cream

This drink has coffee in it. This drink also has milk products in it. This drink if for you coffee lovers, its a chocolatey drink and the strawberry cold foam is sweet and light when it mixed with the drink. The color scheme is more or less like a chocolate covered strawberry, as the name includes. The chocolate is smooth, though the coffee makes it a bit more bitter, and the sweet cream with the puree tastes almost like melted strawberry ice cream or strawberry milk.

Tabby Cat Delight 🐱

How to order:

Ask for a vanilla latte

Sub heavy cream

Add vanilla bean powder

Add Honey

Optional: Can be made hot or iced, picture is iced for aesthetic reasons (and cats like cold milk 😉)

Optional: Ask for a vanilla steamer instead of a latte if you don't want coffee in your drink

Warning: Heavy cream is very fatty and is not good for you to drink often! If you are watching your weight do a different milk option. This drink has coffee in it. It is very thick and creamy, the sweet or the vanilla and honey and the bitter of the coffee really compliments each other with this, the coffee taste very subdued. It gets its name because it reminds me of something a cat would love to lap up (cats are lactose intolerant though so don't give them heavy cream please!)

Apple Pie Macchiato 🥧🍎

How to order:

Ask for a caramel macchiato

Ask if they will make it half apple juice half milk

Add cinnamon dolce syrup

Add cinnamon topping (note:some stores has this as a topping you can add yourself)

This drink probably tastes best hot, however I made it iced in the picture for aesthetic purposes (the iced version was good too though)

Optional: can be made as a frappuchino too! Just ask for a caramel frappuchino instead of a caramel macchiato and follow the rest of the steps!

This drink has coffee in it. It really does taste like apple pie! Its really good and the apple isn't too strong and mixed with the cinnamon nicely. You can add whipped cream if you want too! I know the picture is kind of bad but I couldn't get a good one while I was working (and the lighting sucked lol) but its good I promise 😭

Toffee Mountain Frappuchino 🗻

How to order:

Ask for a Violet Drink

Optional: ask for the very berry hibiscus refresher of you don't want milk included

Ask for it blended

Add vanilla bean powder

Add toffeenut syrup

Optional: Add heavy cream if you want it to be more like a milkshake!

Warning: Heavy cream is very fatty and is not good for you to drink often! If you are watching your weight then don't get heavy cream. This drink does not have coffee in it. It is a very sweet drink with a nutty, salty tang that is very pleasant. The fruit and toffee nut compliment each other surprisingly well! It comes out a nice pastel pinkish-purple. Note: you'll have to ask if you want whipped cream with the berry inclusions on top!

Peppermint Addiction Milkshake 🍬🐄

How to order:

Ask for a green tea frappuchino

Add peppermint

Ask for only half the matcha (this is what makes the green tea part)

Sub heavy cream

Warning: Heavy cream is very fatty and is not good for you to drink often! If you are watching your weight I would just avoid this particular drink and trying something else instead. This drink does not have coffee in it. This tastes a lot like the McDonald's shamrock shake, except better cause it doesn't come out of a machine. Its nice and thick and creamy like a milkshake and the peppermint works really well with the sweetness of the cream and matcha. Would highly recommend!

Wtichyfashion Beauty Hair routine 2020

My last Beauty routine post was very popular. Since that post I’ve learned some new things, and have tried new products So here we go. Unless otherwise stated all products are cruelty free and most are vegan, and or natural

Hair -I regularly dye my hair but have not bleached my hair in a few months. I recommend only bleaching your hair when your roots are horribly long.

-My go to hair dye brand is Arctic Fox They are conditioner based dye so there inst a big risk when damaging your hair. What I’ve noticed with AF is even though they are semi, their dye lasts months depending on the color.

-I was my hair twice a week. In the shower its the 1st thing I do, then either I put conditioner in my hair and keep it in the rest of the shower, or I will put a mask in once I get out

-If I had put conditioner in my hair once I get out of the shower I put in two different hair oils and a leave in conditioner. If its a mask I leave it in overnight and then rinse it out the next day then put conditioner in, and later the hair oil.

-For dry shampoo I switched to the lush one, due to the aerosol in dry shampoos. Aerosol isn’t good for the ozone and is drying to the hair.

Shampoos I use: Lush Godiva Bar shampoo- I love using lush products, in my opinion they are great quality. The Godiva shampoo bars are great because it is moisturizing and cleans my hair. Shampoo bars cut down on waste like their other products. But Lush is just so expensive and hard to get to. The closet store is 30 min away. Buying online just adds more money to what I have to spend. If I had a regular income maybe it wouldn’t be too bad, but I don’t.

OGX- Their Shampoos are pretty decent, they have a ton of options to choose from and a large variety of other hair products to use from that some natural/ cruelty free products might not have. OGX on amazon

Love beauty and love planet- This is my favorite brand of shampoo and conditioner. My go to type is the murmur butter and rose. Its for color treated hair. After each use my hair smells like a bouquet of roses and is soft as the petals. love beauty and planet on amazon

Leave ins: OGX- For the two hair oils I alternate between three hair oils from ogx the spray keratin oil, argan oil of Morocco, and coconut oil. All are made for Hair. DO NOT USE COOKING OR FOOD COCONUT OIL. I know you probably hear tons of people saying how great coconut oil is for your hair but if you buy it in the cooking aisle, leave it off your hair. Its for cooking and in the heat will COOK YOUR HAIR. It also actually blocks moisture from getting to your hair. OGX on amazon

Not your mothers Natural line- To be honest I don’t use much from this brand, but the item I do use I really like. My favorite leave in conditioner is the royal honey and Kalahari desert melon, and that is a mouth full. not your mothers on amazon

Hair masks-The ones I have used are Brite, especially the unicorn mask, and Maui Moisture’s Heal and Hydrate mask. maui moisture on amazon

lazerlustt

tired of these hoes going around saying they can't dress all gothy n shit cause they're broke as fuck. robert smith walked around in slacks and a crumpled up dress shirt that looked like it was seven sizes too big. peter murphy shimmied his scrawny ass into a little black dress he probably picked up at the thrift shop and he's regarded as the godfather of goth. you don't need killstar to be a bat, bitch.

frankenpagie

I'm a thrift store manager and it has never been a better time to be a thrift store Goth. Lots of velvet, lots of barely worn Docs. My particular store has been murdered with flowy things from The Paragon.
