It has been quite a time since I felt called to post any divination content, but today there is something I wanted to talk about.

What is the advice we need on discernment? The Empress.

Here is something to keep in mind: anyone can create an image with words and looks. This is not a proof of substance.

You will know what is good for you because it produces something that is good: more vitality, joy, comfort, goodwill, an pleasure. On the opposite, anyone can make any claim about their character and integrity, but the proof lies in the choices they make and how they impact others.

We all heard about glamour magic, the magical discipline of creating enchantment or illusion. The word "glamour", ultimately, is related to "grimoire" and "grammar". We do spell and spell-cast.

So don't fall for words.

New Project Coming Soon...

In 2 weeks, we'll be debuting our newest social reading project, the serialized release of an 1873 sensational queer and trans-affirmative nineteenth-century novella, "The Fastest Girl in New York; or, The Beauty in Man's Clothes!"

This story was originally published in the New York-based cheap literary periodical The New Sensation, beginning on June 23, 1873, and we'll be posting a couple chapters per week in time with the original posting schedule. You can receive these updates straight to your inbox via our Substack this year! We hope you'll join us in cultivating a lively reading community here on Tumblr, as well as in the Substack comments and on other social media channels!

Image ID: a partially colored print of a young, ambiguously gendered figure (Cleo Clayton) in blue pants, a deep plum colored coat, a button-up blouse with a green bowtie, and a top hat perched on flowing black curls astride a horse. They are easily outrunning two policemen on their own horses, and a dog is bounding beside Cleo.

Pick a Card: Problem and solution

Pile One: Your problem? Some asshole! Your solution, be a cunt. This male energy is selfish, he isn’t going to take you out on dates. His eyes are closed to you and he only loves his money. No, seriously look at this. He is *clutching* his wallet and there is no space to hold your hand. So be a cunt. Stop looking at him. Literally take your flowers that you had to pick for yourself and fuck off. Because that’s what he wants. Or rather, he wants your attention but doesn’t want to have to work for it.

Pile Two: Oh you got three cards! Your problem is that you’re either unsatisfied at work or completely unrecognized for the work you put in. The hanged man is telling me that as long as you stay in this place then the situation is never going to change. Look at me! You will *never* get that promotion there. You will *never* be given a cute little pat on the back for doing extra work. You need to seek new employment post haste. The Hierophant suggests that you should try work you’ve never tried before. Something unconventional.

Pile three: Your problem is that you’re immature, lazy, and unmotivated to do anything! The solution is that the universe is going to make you feel the burn and pain of missing out. Get ready for some serious fucking FOMO! But you could always change course. How about you actually finish a single project you start and be amazed that it doesn’t turn to shit in your hands! Remember that you don’t actually have to do everything alone. It’s perfectly acceptable to ask for help when you need it. And fucking hell are you going to need it if you don’t get your shit together!

Spiritual Climate Report

NOVEMBER 2021

That's right! In honor of this month's numerological dual signature of 7/11, I sure did use an image of an actual 7-Eleven! Check out the report to see how - especially if you've been battling uncertainty - November might feel just like finding this 24-hour convenience store after one hell of a long night out in the dark.
