When you ask the cards what is it you are missing this go round that would have made things easier (Two of Rings: Partnership) , a follow up to a reading from the other day and you follow up the answer with well what can I do to fix that and they are like nah bro you got this all by your lonesome (The Magician)

Deck: Marigold Tarot, Guilded Edition (gold foil edges) by Amrit Brar

So first off we have The Ace of Rings and Queen of Rings

Rings are used instead of pentacles in this deck so the association with the element of earth, the material, and wealth

The Ace of Rings:

-wealth

-prosperity

-contentment

-spiritual and physical wealth

-bright future

Queen of Rings:

-intelligence

-trustworthiness

-security

-generosity

-resourcefulness

She contemplates the world beyond the trappings of gold

A card of nurturing, support, and responsibility

The Neem plant depicted in the card is a natural insecticide and associated with protection and restoration

This was my first pull, mostly just getting reacquainted, but also pondering some less than savory details of today and if I was going to have to continue to put up with that. I put up the cards but the deck felt like it had more to say so...

Another ring card, I am sensing a theme, the issue was work related and thanks to capitalism it is then tied to wealth I suppose

Six of Rings:

-generosity

-prosperity

-gratification

-reflection

-loss vs. gain

Knives are both dangerous and useful under the right circumstances, carefully consider both the harmful and helpful sides

Ace of Cups:

-romatic desire

-pining

-wanting

-new love

-new beginnings

I was thinking about how it would be great if I could find a new opportunity to leave all this grief in the past and my main deity is Cernunnos who has more aspects than you always remember

And finally the song that was playing in the background: Evil People by Set It Off

All and all I think a favorable reading suggest I have some new lucrative opportunities heading my way, astrologically speaking it is a time of justice and things others have taken from you or willed you to miss out on are supposed to be making their way back to you if they were meant to be yours.

I know thats a lot, but I think doing these tarot journals is kinda fun and will be neat to look on in the future and see how close they are and if there was something I was totally missing at the time

Lol the song playin as I type this: The Parting Glass by Celtic Woman and its from the smart shuffle I don't even think I have liked this song yet

I'm just gonna say the perfect stereotypical modern representation of a Cernunnos devotee would be some redneck dude with a mullet and rifle from the Ozarts

I know most of the devotees I have seen have been nonbinary AFAB nerds who enjoy researching the historical angle of paganism, including myself, but I just have this picture in my head that involves the most backwoods way to apply "I use antlers in all of my decorating🎶"

When you finally break down and order your normal face wash, that all the in person stores stopped carrying, and all your acne magically clears up almost over night because the last one you tried to sub in for it that you could get in store sucked that bad

In its defense I may have been sensitive to one of the ingredients but still, its so fucking annoying stores are now cutting back even more on what they carry in person so if you aren't an everyman for everything its special order

Fun statistical fact: Cows are about 300 times more likely to kill you than coyotes.

Minor sidenote to statistical fact: If it was common for people to keep several hundred coyotes on their property and routinely chase them into a corral and handle them, this statistic would be different.

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

this is a great summary of ‘conditional probability’, a statistical property many people grapple with

…I feel like this post just made me realize that both coconut trees and vending machines, items often quoted in wacky death statistics, are both things that people shake vigorously often. 

[byjove]

me: I wonder how some of these bog bodies got created, like, how do you just fall into a bog and die?

drunk guy in the late Iron Age:

[byjove]

There are! There are several where the pathological report is like “The burial does not seem to be intentional and there are no signs of illness or trauma to the body. It is theorized the decedent was a traveler who died of exposure or drowned.” aka wandered into the bog drunk, tripped, ate shit and inhaled peat.

I went to the Bradford museum of science and photography with my aunt and they had an exibit for the Absolute Unit meme
