Relationship Exploration Spread by intuitive-witch

Here’s a nine-card spread that you can use to gain insight into a relationship. It’s always good to take a step back and reflect on your relationships: what makes you work, what you struggle with, where it is heading, and more. While this spread is a good place to start, it shouldn’t be a replacement for an honest talk with your loved one. I made this spread with friendships in mind, but it could also be applied to romantic or familial relationships. 

1. Theme of Relationship - What’s the overall theme to your bond? Fun, hardship, mentorship, romance, or something else entirely? If you feel called to do so, you may want to pull an oracle card for this position.

2. Your Feelings/Experience - How does this relationship affect you? What feelings does it elicit? 

3. Their Feelings/Experience - How does this relationship affect the other person? How do they feel about the relationship?

4. What Bonds You - What’s that special thing that attracted the two of you together in the first place and continues to keep you connected?

5. Your Qualities - These are your positive qualities in the relationship. It’s what you offer to the other person.

6. Your Shortcomings - These are the areas you may need to work on as it could negatively impact the relationship. It’s not always easy to acknowledge our shortcomings, but it’s so worth it for the ones we love.

7. Their Qualities - These are the positive qualities of the other person in the relationship. It’s the stuff that makes them a desirable friend/partner/etc.

8.Their Shortcomings - These are the parts of the other person that may negatively impact you and the relationship. It’s good to be aware of these areas to keep an eye out for unhealthy behavior.

9. Outcome of Relationship - This is a fairly open card, so use your intuition. The outcome might be how the relationship will end, a potential lesson of the relationship, the long-term impact of knowing them, or the state the relationship will evolve into (marriage, partnership, roommates, etc). 

I hope this spread is helpful to you! Feel free to use and share (giving credit, of course) as you wish. If you have questions about the spread, my ask is always open.

I’ve been thinking about the best way to introduce today’s post, and I now have it. It comes in the shape of a warning: swearing ahead! Yeah, I think that sets the mood. Interested? You should be! The deck I’m introducing today is funny and in-your-face, and its name is the Rebel Deck! Quoting from the site: “the ancient practice of Tarot just got a modern make-over”. Though this “tarot with attitude” deck isn’t exactly a tarot deck as it doesn’t have 78 cards, it is fun, straight to the point, and brilliantly original.

So, strong language. But how? Well, these 58 cards (of which 56 are messages) have a special design in which both sides have information. You can’t find the typical repeated backs you have seen in other reviews. No front or back is the same, though they follow a set design: on the front you can find a message encircled by black against a coloured background (light blue, dark blue, fuchsia or orange) with a unicorn at the bottom. On the white backs you can find an often longer text which I find works really well as a piece of advice or afterthought to let the reality punch sink.

The messages are short, quick and yes, dirty! But it’s easy to also find the kindness that moves the messages. Think of it as an older sibling that cares for you deeply but has no time to sugarcoat stuff - or about your vodka aunt, that works too. As I mentioned earlier, there are 56 cards like this, while the other two are extra (one acts as a cover card while the other one contains useful information like how to pick a card).

This deck focuses on the now, and what you need to hear (instead of what would be nice to hear). There is not a lot of room for interpretation, as the messages are direct and raw. “You can’t run and you can’t hide”. Yep. By the way, these come in a black fishnet drawstring pouch. Right now, I can see one of my favourite cards through it: “You are giving too many fucks - give zero”.

The Rebel Deck swears, that’s right. But it’s also an extremely lovable, approachable and fun companion that I adore. These cards are absolutely fantastic for short meditations and to break through a mental block, because they help you to not take yourself too seriously. And because they are so direct and easy to read, they can be given to anyone no matter where they are in their spiritual journey (as long as they appreciate strong language, that is). So give it a chance, check it out, and maybe pick a mug on your way!

Hand Tapping Sigils

This is a sigil method that I have made, and I’d like to call them hand tapping sigils. Hand tapping sigils are sigils that are made from statements of intent, and are acted out through the tapping of certain spots on your fingertips. Certain spots of a finger will correlate to different letters allowing the practitioner to tap out their intention, so that they can send it out into the universe, while also reaffirming their intention in their subconscious. This sigil method is charged through your own energy, and focus, and will be activated and sent out by the act of you doing it. These sigils are versatile, and can be used anywhere without tools, or attracting attention.

1) First, like usual sigils you need to make a statement of intent. I will be using this one as an example.

“I Am Protected”

2) Next you’re going to want to shorten that statement of intent a lot.  hand tapping sigils can get quite complicated, quite fast. So in order to keep it on the simple side we need to only used the letters that really speak to your intention. It is primarily going to be the first letters of every word, or any other letters that you deem usable. It is really up to you what you want to use, but it should end up to be a small amount of letters, so that you can actually perform the hand tapping sigils. Feel free to put the letters in any pattern that you would like in order to make the sigil more personal and unique to you. This is what I ended up with for this statement of intent:

“A I P”

3)  Now that we have our letters we are going to tap them out on our fingers. In order to do this you’re going to need to use the chart below, so that you know the correct position to tap for each letter correspondence. Now you are going to want to put your hands palms facing each other, and in order to tap the letter you are going to push it with your opposite hand, much like you’re using your fingers as a keyboard on the correct position that corresponds to the letter that you want. This would be like if you wanted to tap the letter ‘R’ you would take one of the fingers of your left hand, and touch it to the middle finger middle position, or ‘R’ spot in order to tap it. You would do this with every letter left from your statement of intent, so that you can cast your sigil. The letter that is tapped will be the letter receiving the pushing force. This is so letters that are on the same position on the opposite hand are not mistaked for the tapping of one another, especially after a quick succession. This could be used in order to discern things like a ‘B’ tap from an ‘I’ tap. You would most likely not only tap the sigil out once, but do it multiple times much like if you were chanting silently with your hands. that’s all there really is to hand tapping sigils, and they are simple, but effective tools that can be brought into your working, and could be quite useful from time to time.

Spell for Intrusive/Impulsive Thoughts

Slightly based off lightning redirection in Avatar the Last Airbender.

For those like me, unwanted thoughts can affect our lives in negative ways so I made a very simple spell to ward them off (Note: This is by no means a professional treatment and may not work for everyone)

1. Put a finger to your temple and imagine the thought transferring to it

2. Slowly, draw a z shape from your forehead outward and take the thought with it

I see a lot of posts circulating about interpreting card reversals, and just wanted to share this helpful mnemonic devised by Benebell Wen.

When a reversal shows up in one of your readings, remember this acronym to think about the possible meanings.

WIND:

Weakened energy of card meaning - are other forces overpowering the card’s energy or preventing it from manifesting?

Inverted (or opposite) meaning of card - this one’s self explanatory.

Negative influence on Seeker - is this energy hindering rather than helping the Seeker? Is there someone in the Seeker’s life who embodies these traits?

Delay before the card’s outcome will materialize - does the Seeker need to take additional steps before the card’s energy will manifest? Or is it simply a matter of “wait and see”?

witch tip:

if you are holding on to anger towards someone (especially a person who is no longer in your life), sit in a quiet place, burn your favorite incense, and write that person a letter.  write down every single thought and emotion you feel towards that person. when you are done, burn the letter in a cauldron or fireproof bowl.  as you burn it, repeat out loud “you no longer have power in my life” until the letter has turned to ash.  collect the ash and use it to make black salt.

Can I please request an easy spell to bring someone closer to you? It's not for some wrong purpose, I want to know more about that person. I'm just starting to cast spells and I don't use crystals or herbs till now. So maybe a spell with a candle n a chant. I can etch that person's name to make it more personal. Thank you very much.

bring us closer spell

carve the person’s name into the candle, and yours on the other side. 

chant:

with the power of our namesi bring our paths to intertwinethrough this burning flameto learn of you is my design

let the candle burn all the way through, or at least until it has burned through both names. do not leave the candle unattended.

Quick and Simple Spells

Maybe we have not the energy or psychic resources to complete something complex. Maybe we cannot wait for the full moon. Maybe we need something in the moment. Simple spells can give us a boost or help us through trying moments.

Ease Anxiety With a small object in your hand (exempli gratia: a pen, a small stone, a charm, an eraser). Run your thumb lightly over the surface of the object either away from you or in a diurnal (anti-clockwise) motion. Repeat slowly in your mind calma anois síos (now calm down).

Confidence Boost Using your compact or standing in front of the mirror say the following three times: Tá mé neart (I am strength).

Beauty Charm Hold a necklace, ring, earrings, or bracelet you can comfortably wear in your left hand and place your right hand over them. Repeat three times: áilleacht agus cairde (beauty and grace). Move through your day with confidence.

Notes If you have trouble pronouncing the Irish, the English will work just as well.

So as I anxiously await my Starchild Tarot (sooooon!) I wanted to also post about the the upcoming companion deck, The Moonchild Tarot. Artist Danielle Noelle describes the Moonchild as the “shadow companion” to the Starchild. Seeing as I love the moon, and am obsessed with moon imagery, this deck is pretty much a mandatory purchase for me when it gets released. I have no info on when that will be! But I will definitely keep you posted if I see or hear anything anywhere, it looks so amazing already, I cannot wait!

Sooo beautiful <3

I was just thinking about this deck the other day and wondering if it was still being worked on.

Basic Spirit Work Advice:

Don’t give out the name that means the most to you, whether that’s your birth name or your nickname.

If an entity gives your their full name, don’t give that away to others. Use a nickname or a pseudonym to protect their privacy. 

If you have any feeling that there’s an unwanted or threatening entity in a space or your home, tell it to go away and show now fear. Do any kind of cleansing exercise that you use. Do not back down. Repeat and increase intensity if it doesn’t stop.

Don’t expect to hear voices, see entities, or get any kind of clear messages. It can take years of practice, and sometimes you just can’t. People on tumblr who share their experiences may be embellishing for clarity, and might receive messages in a less clear way than presented. 

If you have a specific, individualized method of protecting your spiritual area (especially with visualization), don’t share how you’ve made the wards or the specifics of them. It’s just good practice not to show your weaknesses.

The “color” of energy does not necessarily denote a specific universal meaning. I’m of the opinion that energy colors are filtered through your own established color system, so make sure you know what you believe - whether colors are linked to different elements, or alignments etc.

If you choose to bind an entity to an object, be aware that losing the object might change your relationship with the spirit in some way. I personally advise against binding spirits to things, given that they could easily be damaged or lost, but that’s your choice.
