Lately I’ve been having issues being passionate and intimate with my boyfriend. I’m super attracted to him but there’s this insecurity and negativity that just engulfs me whenever the time comes, and I just let my insecurities tear me away from him. I love him so much and I want to improve but I can’t seem to get this negativity off my back. I need help with restoring the love I had for myself and the time we have together in our intimate moments.

Hi Tala! Your kind support of the Trans Women of Color Collective is very much appreciated (: Given your situation, I used the African American Tarot to ask several questions and get a sense of whether working the roots could make some positive change for your situation.

The Ten of Pentacles shows the ancestral spirits of Gabon culture, the Ombwiri. This card is telling you that the key to overcoming your insecurities and bringing more self-love and self-care in the ways that you need are through your own ancestors. In the hoodoo working I can do for you, it will definitely be important to ask your ancestors for assistance in that process. If you feel comfortable doing so, I recommend praying to them and asking for help with giving yourself the self-care and feeling the self-worth that you deserve. Also, if you have close friends or family who can listen to how you feel and give you some positive affirmation or support, definitely consider reaching out to them sometime soon.

The King of Pentacles here represents your boyfriend as the legendary conqueror and King Tsoede of the Nupe people in Nigeria. He is believed to have founded the Nupe Kingdom, a very prosperous people. In this deck as the king of the Pentacles suit, he is an embodiment of stability, growth, and success. Lean into your partner as a strong and stable rock of support and care in your life, soak in the comfort and grounding that he brings to your life. Let yourself trust and lean into him, and his strength will be there to hold you up.

Finally, the Empress appeared when I asked about the outcome of doing a working for you to help you with self-love and intimacy in these ways. In this deck, the Empress is represented by the Orisha of love, joy, and sexuality - the beautiful Oshun. As the owner of sweet waters, she is the epitome of the divine feminine, of love, sensuality, passion, and bliss. This is an extremely positive sign for us to go ahead with your working and that working the roots for you would have the intended effect for you and your situation - to feel confident and comfortable in yourself and these areas of your life.

Hi Yejide! I feel like I'm blocked to know anything about my past lives. I wanna know if it's the case and, if yes, why? Or what can I do to unblock myself? Or who blocked me, so I can beat their a**. Thank you really much.

Hey Kus! For you, I’ll use the Buddha Tarot to see what might be blocking you, and if it seems like a spirit or person I’ll follow up with scrying to see if I can hone in on who they are.

The Eight of Jewels came up for the question of what’s blocking you from connecting with your past lives. The card art shows a man trying to make something in his forge. He is trying to create something perfect, something different from everything else because he is unhappy with himself as the way that he is now. The message of the Eight of Jewels is that you’re placing too much value on finding out about these past lives in a certain way. The process itself is going to unfold over time naturally, it’s not something that you can force in the way that you expect to happen. Learning more about your past only feels blocked at the moment because of your current approach to it.

So how to unblock things and let these past lives come to you in the way they’re supposed to? For this question, you received the Five of Vajras and the Six of Jewels together. While the Jewels suit is about your values, Vajras centers on the mind. The Five of Vajras is about adjusting your mindset so that you have the right intentions behind your actions. You’re trying to focus on what you need to do in order to access your past lives, but you need to focus instead on why you genuinely want to know about your past lives and what you want to get out of reconnecting with them. The Six of Jewels represents freely and selflessly giving and sharing whatever you have in abundance, which relates to what kind of intentions to set your mind to when investigating into your past lives.

Hi Yejide It’s awesome that you’re supporting these organizations with your readings. I’d like a general reading about getting in touch with my ancestors and family traditions. My initials are VS, mothers initials are VM. Method whatever you feel is best.

Hey there! Glad you think so and thanks for helping with that goal by donating to the Trans Women of Color Collective :) I love to use my African American Tarot deck for everything related to ancestors. I asked three questions about how you can better connect to your ancestors and family traditions.

You received Two of Wands reversed on the topic of connecting with your ancestors. The card art depicts the West African demon that posses newborn babies, called the Obambou. There is a belief that when the dead are not buried properly and well taken care of, their spirits can turn into Obambou who enter infants’ bodies and cause them to go mad and wild. It’s going to be essential for you to be proactive about learning your culture’s specific ancestral customs and ways of working with ancestors. Research and study as much as you can so that you can create a traditional altar that they are happy with. Make sure to give offerings and tend to their altar consistently. This card speaks of an impending risk in the way that you work with them if you aren’t careful and sensitive to their needs.

For honoring your family traditions, the Emperor appeared. In this deck, he is Olorun, the owner of the sky and heaven (Orun) in Yoruba religion. It is a title of the Supreme God and creator of the universe. I’m getting a strong sense here about monotheism and perhaps even Abrahamic religions. If your family practices one of these religions, even if it isn’t consistent with your beliefs, you may want to consider honoring some of the important traditions related to that. I’m also sensing a strong patriarch and/or patrilineal traditions in your family from this card.

Lastly, I asked about what offering you could provide for your ancestors and received the Tower, who is Gaunab - the South African deity of evil who causes misfortune, disaster, and death. The good news is that the previous two cards provide some guidance on what to do, the bad news is that this card is to me a very strong indicator that your ancestors may not be too pleased with you at the moment. Maybe you are feeling lost, in conflict, or uncomfortable with family or your family line right now - or maybe it’s that your ancestors have been wanting attention and time from you that you haven’t yet given them. The “offering” being asked for here is to wash away whatever has been holding you back like a destructive flood that clears obstacles but also cleanses. I recommend some deep meditation or reflection on what these tensions may be and to make some plans to begin working with your ancestors more closely.

Today’s communal reading: Warrior woman, have you answered your deepest calling? You are here for a reason. You were being called to bravely pave a path. Have you answered your highest and deepest calling? Living a heart and soul lead life is not all fluffy and smooth sailing. Living a heart and soul filled life, requires courage to triumph over fear so often our fears are the gate keepers to our greatest gifts and the more resistance we have towards answering a call the more important it is to our souls Kroos sometimes fear is an indication that we are facing the right way. Joan of arc was known for her courage and famous line “I am not afraid I was born to do this” but the thing about courage is that it’s not possible without fear so if you are feeling afraid what is needed is courage, and courage comes from living from the heart . soul family : call in your tribe you don’t have to be alone It is time to call in your soul, family and support team. People who get you add a soul level people who are the same kind of weird as you. People who are chosen family they are coming and they are looking for you.. If you haven’t found them yet, this is a sign they are close by but in order for them to find and recognize you when they do it is important that you stop dimming your light and truly let yourself be seen . If you have found them, then you are being called to let them support you and perhaps also assemble a wider support team. Your support team can consist of all types of people such as therapists coach, mentor, or healers tune into what kind of support you need now. #workyourlight #communityreading #collectivereading #oracle #lasvegas (at Las Vegas, Nevada) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqV5eTQvOYp/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#CommunityReading for #TarotTuesday Spread: The Path, The Obstacle Deck: The Wild Unknown Animal Spirit Oracle 🔮✨ The Path: In fantasy literature, a unicorn is a welcome omen solidifying belief in the otherworldly as well as a promise of good fortune and magical promise. When the unicorn crosses your path, you’re making a connection with the spirit world. We all question the existence of the spirit world, but the more we are open to it, the easier it will find us. If you’ve been waiting on some sort of miracle or a sign from divinity, remain open and it will find you. 🦄🐙 The obstacle: If you follow down this path, you must remain open. The octopus appears when you get stuck in your own mind ever-reaching and yearning. It distracts you from taking the right path to your destination and you might find yourself lacking boundaries and directions by getting too-in-your head. While this mindset can be a blessing in terms of perception, it is a messy omen on a somewhat uncharted road. Remain focused, step outside yourself, and keep going towards the light glimmering at the horizon. (at Willy Street Neighborhood) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFJ_g0njFwu/?igshid=125pgx19jwf1p

#CommunityReading for #TarotTuesday: 🌼 The In | Golden Poppy (Dream): Also known as the California poppy, this plant has a long tradition of being used as a sedative or narcotic. Familiar with the line “Poppies will put them to sleep?” Well, the Wizard of Oz knew its properties. Dreams can be distracting and strange, but they are often the gateway to achievements and happiness. Don’t dismiss the wanderings of your subconscious as silly, welcome them as an ability to project the future or alternative realms. At times, you may certainly be critical of the content of your dreams, but wouldn’t life be sad without them? We need to strive for happiness and the ability to dream allows us to do that. 🌼 The Out | Indigo (Enhance): Indigo is a beautiful, but toxic plant that Native Americans used for making dyes—in fact, all denim at one point in time was dyed with indigo. The plant’s reputation as a coloring agent leads us to the oracle property “enhance.” We are often inclined to reject things that are less remarkable than we would like. We need to look outside ourselves and our judgements and shift our perspectives so we don’t dismiss something that is good. If the room is clean but feels dull, set out a vase of flowers. We shouldn’t discard something for being too basic or simple. What within our gifts can we bring to brighten these outcomes we’ve reached? 🌼 *(Deck: The Hedgewitch Botanical Oracle) (at Willy Street Neighborhood) https://www.instagram.com/p/CC6yC5Pj0Pw/?igshid=1pir5mwxc1s9o
