This might sound harsh but if you use AI to read tarot don’t consider yourself a tarot reader. Please use your own brain, It’s gotten alarmingly bad how y’all use robots for everything. The basis of tarot is to use your own intuition and understanding of the cards. The cards meanings also vary from reader to reader. It’s borderline pathetic to ask artificial intelligence what the spread you just pulled means and write down the exact answer it gives you for pacs on tumblr or wherever else because you can’t figure it out yourself. I’m sorry, but It’s embarrassing. There’s so many possibilities and so many messages to interpret when you read that a robot cannot catch. That’s the beauty in tarot!! You clearly don’t care for it if you use AI, if you’re gonna use it regardless at least be honest about it and don’t pretend you interpreted that by yourself. It’s ridiculous.
Harry Potter is fucking unsalvageable at this point and it doesn't matter how much you seperate yourself from the artist/author when the author's bigotry and transmisogyny heavily overshadows anything in that mediocre book.
at this point it signifies that you are complicit in the genocide of trans people, especially trans women and that you don't care that Rowling is profiting off of HP while pushing for the removal of our existence.
love our trans sisters, especially trans sisters of color, more than this fuck ass book.

Hello, friend! I'm also from Kansas with my trusty cow named Bessie, where someone made hot and cold water towers as a joke, and they have been up for a long time.
Who the fuck is even from Kansas? I know I am but who the hell else is? I swear Kansas has a population of like. 2. It's me and a cow I named Gertrude. I was sent here from far beyond where your simple minds could understand to this place.

I feel defeated... I have filled out job applications, did the follow up calls, did a spell jar for a little boost, and even filled out another job application.
Then to make matters worse, I thought I was still in good graces with most of my coworkers. We live in a medium sized community but I have no problem helping my friends out. Basically long story short, the store wasn't able to open on time because the opener didn't show up. The cops were called to the store for a welfare check by a concerned customer. She was genuinely worried that something was wrong.I was then called because the opener wasn't responding and we are neighbors. That didn't go well, and the opener proceeds to angry text the store manager, says she's mad at me, and that I am getting favoritism, and since i don't work there anymore don't send me over.
Then, our merchandise manager arrives, and takes over the angry texting, and shuts it all down. Because with the store not opening on time the manager could have been fired, and they both told me that it's not my fault, and that I shouldn't feel obligated to help people with rides anymore.
I don't feel like a ray of sunshine right now.
Yes! You coined the term advwitch for a reason. So we can have discussions with like minded people. I just want to talk and make friends. I'm in South Central Kansas, I'm not around many witches, pagans, or anything magical. I'm in Trump land.
I miss the good old days of witchblr. Does anybody else remember like we could read whatever we wanted, and we could post about it? And sure, there were people that didn't care of the book or topic. The difference between then and now is that it was a discussion and not a beat down session. And then, people were kind enough to offer other book titles!
Also, we had a clear set of guidelines referring to cultural appropriation, and words or phrases that were frowned upon. Other then that, you want to be a Death Witch, go for it. A Sea Witch, have at it. A Storm Witch, power to ya. The lists goes on. Then, if we were curious about there practice we would ask genuine questions! If the practitioner maybe did something that maybe you didn't like or thought was borderline on the no no list, again you didn't beat them down, it was a discussion.
The ones that couldn't handle having a informal discussion were simply blocked and their comments were deleted. Or in some cases, the post was deleted, which was pretty common, and occasionally remade.
Also, side tangent, we liked the titles of the different witch types, because it was our niche and it was organized. Sure, you don't have to have a title or a certain practice, that's fine. As for me, I like having a title or a type because it keeps me focused on what I want to achieve. Plus, having a title made the witchblr tags so much easier to navigate.
My boyfriend is not very familiar with spell work, and he asked if I could do a spell for safe travels. We were invited to a local hockey game and we were given free tickets. He seldom asks for spells for himself mostly for other people. But I figured with the planetary alignment and it's heavy concentration of a lot of different energies at once, so perhaps a spell wouldn't hurt.
Ra and his yellow candle for guidance and blessings
Dragon's Blood incense for protection
White candle for purifying and cleansing us and our space
Black candle for protection and ridding of negativity
Amber perfume for protection and soothing of nerves
I essentially asked Ra for guidance and protection during our travels. May the journey be smooth and calm, and if we meet any obstacles may they be small and manageable. May we handle these energies with calm and clear minds and understanding.
Salt for grounding and cleansing
Lavender for calm thoughts
Rosemary for gentle protection
Bay Leaf to ward of negativity
I asked Ra to bless this spell jar because it's going to be going on the car with us tomorrow.
Also, I had some witchy ambience music in the background because I prefer some noise to help me focus.
I want my blog to be mostly positive and mostly witchy, but given the state of things, I feel I need to share some things because I am angry. Just know, I say these things as they are what I witnessed and grew up being around. Growing up, my (step)family and I were Catholics. I'm not obviously anymore but they still are. We lived in rural Kansas where there was more livestock than people.
These people wouldn't know kindness if it bit them in the ass. When my mom and step dad got married, I was informed and reminded repeatedly that I would never be a real sister, cousin, and I wasn't a part of the family. Mental health issues were a sign of weakness, and I was bullied by peers and adults alike for being too sensitive. Bullying was an everyday occurrence, and I really struck a nerve when I found their mother's suicide note, it was four pages. I read it. Being only 13 years old, I understood
They were also racist, so racist one of my sisters got caught kissing a guy that was not white, I remember a lot of yelling being involved, maybe more but not 100% sure. Throughout this weird Catholic community we also had a lot of Latino people. At school, my peers weren't allowed to speak Spanish, even at recess it was always met with "We speak English here!" I was there at the beginning of the whole "Mexicans are taking our jobs!" In our dating years, we didn't dare bring anybody home that wasn't white.
Being LGBT...um..."Not the way God intended." Is the kindest way to say how it wasn't welcomed. This was met with insults, hate, and biblical rhetoric. And threatened to be disowned if we were.
It's also very much a Pro-life area, growing up during the Summer every other Sunday afternoon all us little chickens and some older chickens would flock to the highway with some Pro-life signs from the church basement and stand along the highway with our signs for a couple of hours.
These people cannot be reasoned with, they refuse to even remotely listen. This mindset has been ingrained in people's brains. Even in my town now, there is still hate. A town maybe 30 minutes away was KKK headquarters for my area. If you aren't straight and white, it's tough.
I'm angry and scared, but I refuse to be dragged back into that pit which I dug out from. I will fight as I did before. I'm bisexual, pro-choice, and I love everyone. We are humans, we all bleed red, and we all deserve love and respect. The sun can warm, but it can also scortch and burn, and I will do my best to help comfort those who suffer.
