How to Avenge Yourself with Tarot

My grandma taught me never to draw first blood. But that if a soul hurts me maliciously, the old gods will consider my vengeance an act of self-love.

Step 1: State your case.

In a dim, quiet, private place… shuffle your cards, as you recount to them every detail of how you were cruelly injured. As if writing in a diary, divulge aloud your agony. Let your heart fill with ache. Let your body swell with rage.

Step 2: Choose the punishment.

When your pain and fury are at their peak… find the card in the deck that in your soul you believe to fit the misdeed.

Death: Serious illness

The Devil: Emotional abuse

The Tower: Sweeping chaos

The Moon: Damaging secrets revealed

Five of Wands: Friends turning foes

Seven of Wands: Crippling stress

Nine of Wands: Paranoia

Ten of Wands: Bone fractures

Five of Cups: Bouts of depression

Two of Swords: Significant errors in judgement

Three of Swords: Sudden loss of love

Five of Swords: Defeat in competitions

Eight of Swords: Mental or physical imprisonment

Nine of Swords: Insomnia and anxiety

Ten of Swords: Festering cuts and bruises

Knight of Swords: Physical and verbal abuse

Five of Pentacles: Financial ruin

Step 3: Decide the duration.

Find a second card in your deck. Remember that even the smallest cut left unchecked can lead to death. So unless it is warranted… be fair and be prudent.

Ace of Wands: A few days

Ace of Swords: A week

Ace of Cups: A month

Ace of Pentacles: A year

Step 4: Carry out the sentence.

Hold both cards in your hands, with the punishment on top, and the duration behind it, hidden in the back.

Gaze at the card… and with every fiber of your being, imagine it moving.

If it is the Knight of Swords, watch him gallop on his way to cut your oppressor in half. If it is Death, see your oppressor lying lifeless by the Reaper’s horse. If it is the Ten of Swords, let your oppressor take the place of the corpse in the card. Watch their back ooze with blood from every wound, gash and slash.

Step 5: Let it go.

Your raw vulnerability in admitting your injury has connected you to the higher power you have faith in, be that the Universe or a deity.

They have heard your appeal, which will soon be fulfilled. Offer them your gratitude in advance. Your wounds are now in good hands.

It could take days… weeks… even longer. It will happen once your oppressor believes they have gotten away with bruising you. At that moment, a colossal flame will engulf their contentment. And you will know in your heart that the debt has been collected.

Types of Herbal Remedies

I’ve compiled a list of types of herbal remedies, with brief instructions on how to make them. Choose your herbs carefully, as some are poisonous, some will interfere with health problems and medications, and some can cause allergic reactions.

If you are concerned about any health issue you have, or worried about herbs reacting with your medications, go talk to your doctor. This post is not intended as medical advice.

Compress

This is usually cloth that has been soaked in a herbal infusion so that it can be applied topically. Useful for skin issues, muscle pain, joint pain, and general aches.

You can make one by soaking cotton wool in a warm infusion of your choice, wrapping the balls in a piece of clean cloth, and applying to the affected area. Once the cloth cools down you can soak it again in the warm tea and reapply.

Infusion

This is basically the herbalist term for tea. The herbs are usually dried and ground before being steeped in very hot water and then strained out. If you use a bag then you can skip the straining.

Tincture

This is similar to an infusion but much stronger, and with alcohol instead of water, which helps to preserve it.

Put your herbs in a jar. Cover them with alcohol (most people I know use vodka). Put the lid on the jar and shake it daily for a month or so, then strain the herbs out. I tend to keep mine in the little dropper bottles, as you normally don’t need to take much at once.

Decoction

I like to think of these as a stronger infusion. You need four times as much boiling water as dried herb, and you want to simmer the mixture for about half an hour before straining.

Syrup

These are herbs mixed with a sugary substance, which makes them easier to consume and helps to preserve them a little. They’re a good way to get your herbs in if you have a sore throat, as they are often quite soothing.

You’ll need a couple ounces of fresh herb per pint of water. Put them on the stove and heat until about half of the water has evaporated. Then you need to add about five tablespoons of sugar/honey/maple syrup per pint of water you used originally (so if you put two pints in the pan, you need ten tablespoons). Keep stirring for about twenty minutes, then take it off the heat and bottle it up. You need to keep syrups in the fridge, preferably in a dark coloured jar or bottle.

Balm

Essential oils and beeswax, basically. Add about twenty drops of essential oil to a cup of melted beeswax, stick it in a jar, let it cool, and there you go! You can mix in juiced herbs if you like, but that’s optional.

Salve

A salve is basically essential oils mixed with beeswax, oils and herbs. I have seen them made with coconut oil, though if you live in a warmer environment then coconut oil won’t work for you as it melts. You need about fifty/fifty dried herbs and beeswax (if you live somewhere warm) or use a mixture of beeswax and an oil like olive or safflower if you live somewhere colder, just so it’s soft enough to use. Use about twenty drops of oil per cup of beeswax. You’ll need to melt the wax in a double boiler, and let the herbs infuse in the molten wax for about half an hour. Then you add your essential oils, and pour the molten salve into the containers and let it cool.

Ointment

This is basically a liquid balm or salve. Follow the methods above, but use oil instead of beeswax.

Bath

When taking a herbal bath, you are basically making a giant cup of tea! Fill an organza bag with your chosen herbs, and put it in the bath while you run the water, then remove it before you get in. You can reuse the bag of herbs, but they lose potency with each use, so I try to avoid doing this.

Poultice

This is a paste of herbs and sometimes other things that is applied to the skin. Used for infections, splinters, burns, boils etc. They’re pretty simple to make, you just mix some dried herbs with a tiny bit of boiling water to form a paste, put it on the area, and use a piece of cloth or gauze to keep it there. If you want to use fresh herbs you just mash them up.

Symbols and Signs used in witchcraft

[venusian5]

Construction of the Planetary Symbols

The planetary symbols are an important part of many esoteric studies, and they play an integral role in the understanding of astrology. Their construction is no haphazard matter though, and there is deep meaning inherently built in to them that can give you greater insight into the planetary energies themselves.

The symbols are largely constructed from 3 basic pieces.

The circle – the circle represents the spirit, it is the divine will and our connection to that higher energy.

The crescent – the crescent represents the mind and the soul, it is the conduit through which matter is connected to the spirit.

The cross – the cross represents matter, the physical plane that exists within the intersection of time and space.

The Sun – the circle of spirit and a singular dot within, representing divine spirit radiating outward, the will and desire to shine as an individual that seeks recognition solely for its essence.

The Moon – two crescents directed backward towards the past, seeking comfort and familiarity. They are tied to our deepest selves, and show us the way to nourish our soul.

Mercury – the crescent of the mind over the cross of matter and the circle of spirit, an attempt to reach outside of ourselves to seek understanding about our place in the world around us.

Venus – the circle of spirit over the cross of matter, finding value and worth that has deeper meaning than physical attributes, and using this connection as the power of artistic creation.

Mars – the cross of matter over the circle of spirit, which is realizing the needs of the divine spirit within the physical realm. It is the power of energy put to the use of reshaping the world around you.

Jupiter – the crescent of the mind over the cross of matter, seeking to push the boundaries of what is possible in space and time and searching for connection to a higher purpose.

Saturn – the cross of matter over the crescent of the mind, the realization that the limitations of the physical world are inescapable, and learning to work within that framework to forge something of meaning and substance.

Uranus – two crescents in opposition surround the cross of matter over the circle of spirit, the sublimation of the personal will (circle) in order to create something worthwhile to society (cross) by thinking forward into the future (right crescent) and addressing the needs of the masses (left crescent).

Neptune – the crescent of the soul impaled upon the cross of matter, which shows us the yearning for all matter to return to the divine, and the power of dissolution to become one with the all.

Pluto – the circle of spirit separate from the crescent of the mind above the cross of matter, the power of indomitable spirit to radically transform the inner and outer world for the purposes of transcendence into the divine will.

[candles-crystals-cauldrons]

Just some magic circles, these can be used to focus and contain energy and form a sacred space of magical protection or both. It can be drawn out in salt, chalk, pencil or otherwise it can be visualised

These are obviously more extravagant circles you can always do a simple circle if you are more comfortable with that

Graeco-Egyptian Planetary Correspondance

As I work my way through the book looking for timing rules, I’ve found a couple planetary correspondences: the “proper incense” for a planet and the stone or metal meant to be used for them in an astrology spell. Thought I’d share since there’s so many correspondences out there. The incense is from PGM XIII 1-343 and the stone/metal is from PGM CX 1-12.

Sun (Helios) - Frankincense; Gold

Moon (Selene) - Myrrh; Silver

Mercury (Hermes) - Cassia (Chinese cinnamon); Turquoise

Venus (Aphrodite) - Indian nard (spikenard); Lapis Lazuli

Mars (Ares) - Kostos (Saussurea costus); Yellow-green Onyx

Jupiter (Zeus) - Malabathron (Indian bay leaf); Dark blue stone with a crystal growth

Saturn (Kronos) - Styrax; Obsidian

A ✨ spell ✨ to stop certain someone from controlling your thoughts and life

Gather:

• two (preferably glass) bowls

• black salt

• water (moon if you want to be fancy, but regular is fine)

• a cup/glass/mug

• a candle

• red string (representing fate)

• scissors

Steps:

1. Prepare everything. Have your black salt in one bowl (on the left) and water in the other (on the right).

2. Cut a piece of the string. Tie a few knots on it, each representing a situation in which your target has been controlling.

3. Put the piece of string in black salt. While stirring it counter-clockwise with your finger, say: “Here I am, in darkness, for you have trapped me. But I’ve had enough”.

4. “Light of freedom” say as you light the candle. Burn the string, visualising yourself being released from their influence.

5. Cut a new piece of string (no knots this time!) and drop it in the water. This symbolises your new, clear life. Stir it clockwise with your finger, imagining the peace you’ll find.

6. Pour some water into the cup (don’t drink the string!). “I am happy. I am free. I am my own” - chant this before AND after drinking it.

7. Blow the candle out and boom, you’re done :)

Love and light ❤❤
