ᛣ Elhaz Reversed- Losing touch with your intuition, sense of vulnerability. Stay on guard for any trouble but don't become paranoid or filled with fear. Take care of your physical, spiritual, mental, and emotional health. Avoid making hasty decisions. Use your intuition to distinguish who is trying to take advantage of you, for your protection.
ᛗ Mannaz- Humanity, the self, support, assistance, intelligence, family. Remember that we, humans, are one and cannot make progress on our own, we need each other. If there is tension between what you perceive as your place in the Universe and who you are, it is best that you maintain self-awareness and choose carefully how you approach some situations (listen to your intuition). Keep an open mind when it comes to receiving help from others and lending a hand to people in need.
ᛁ Isa- Obstacles, standstill, stagnation, delay, coldness. You are advised to accept your circumstance as a reality, focusing your energy on making progress to be ready once you are able to. Don't give up trying; don't assume that it is over, this situation is temporary and doesn't mean things won't work out in the end. Evaluate things from a cool perspective and ask yourself if you have been open and expressive about your feelings lately.
I’m baaaaack! This time with a spread inspired by my irl friend @wingedscribe who was asking about my past life reading process. I figured I’d share my spread with you all as well! The positions will be named after Jungian archetypes because, you know, we’re doing soul searching and Jung is famous for that, and also because I’m Like That. Without further ado, let’s get into it!
1. The Syzygy: This archetype represents the non-gendered combination of the anima and the animus, both of which are meant to represent the hidden, unconscious “true self”. This position is therefore about who your past self was at their core! What kind of person were you? What were your personality traits and values? What parts of you were generated by “nature”?
2. The Parent: This archetype is meant to be a combination of the “mother” and “father” archetypes, which have to do with discipline and nurturing respectively. This position represents the environment in which your past self was raised. What was the political climate like? Where in the world were you? Which parts of you were generated by “nurture”?
3. The Child: This archetype is self explanatory, and represents your inner innocence and youth. True to form, this position represents what your past self’s early years were like. What kind of a childhood did they have? What sorts of things helped build up their personality? What is leading up to the main conflict in their lives?
4+5. The Shadow: This archetype represents the darker aspects of one’s personality (the other side of one’s coin, so to speak). These darker aspects can range from negative personality traits to traumas you carry with you. For this reason, these two crossed cards represent the main conflict of this past life. What forces were working for and against you? What were you fighting for?
6. The Hero: This archetype represents the overcoming of obstacles in the effort to achieve a goal. Think of the twelve labors of Hercules. This position represents the resolution of the main conflict. How did things shake out? What was the climax of your narrative? How did the remaining years of your life play out as a result?
7. The Sage: This archetype is the opposite of the child, and represents the wisdom that comes with age and experience. This position represents the lesson to be learned from this life. What was the main take away here? What did you end up gaining, or losing?
8. The Self: This archetype represents the joining of conscious and unconscious into one unified being and the creation the true unfiltered self. For this reason, this position represents the connection between the past life and your current life. Why did this life resonate with you at this time? What lessons is your past self trying to impart through this reading?

Reading Tips: This deck works with both tarot and oracle cards, though I typically use it with tarot cards. I’d imagine you could use it for runes as well. As always, the position descriptions are more guidelines than actual comments. Here are a few more tips for getting the most out of this spread:
Positions 6 and 8 can be inverted, so that the reading pattern looks more like a circle. This is useful for people who are looking for a reading meant to be protective or healing in some way because it attracts the positive energy of clockwise motion Reading it in a “Z” as laid out above is good for readings that have to do with information gathering or fun since this pattern mimics the movement of a dowsing rod or pendulum, which can lead to you getting a more in-depth read. I tend to read it like a “Z” most of the time for that reason.
If you don’t want to deal with trying to figure out how reversed cards represent aspects of personality, I would recommend flipping all the cards so they lay horizontally. This way, you force the cards into their upright meanings. This is helpful for beginning readers or people who don’t particularly want to get absolutely annihilated when they came for a quick past life read.
Hi, everyone! I have had some of you ask in the past, but I am now open to runic and tarot readings! If you have some questions about your love life, your financial situation, or simply a 7-day forecast of your life, please feel free to message me with your question and which spread you would like!
The universe is supporting me and foretelling me finding a loving and harmonious relationship. Only deal is I need to chill the fuck out and free myself from my past. Which is like cool but NOT SUCH AN EASY TASK RUNES. Lol.
Anyone know any good rune spreads for communication??? All the spreads I know are like future questions, situation viewers and the like. I'm trying to communicate with Loki and Hel
