you don't have to answer if you don't want to, but do you ever get tired of people only asking for romantic/sexual readings?
Not really haha. I do like to explore other things, but it's like when you love chocolate and have never got bored of it and once in a blue moon you decide to eat a hard candy, just because.
Planning, self-introspection, determining the factors that influence my behavior, understanding individual's psychology, how best to study, problem solving, how to improve communication, life purpose, etc. I can do those without tarot. People can talk about random things in front of me and I can guess their insecurities. Oh, you have problems with executing your ideas? Check your time management, discipline, task breakdown, workload and limiting beliefs.
The solutions to these problems often need to be practical instead of just a pep talk to be effective. If someone wanted to ask for advice about how to choose between two paths, I would prefer to help them analyze their options logically instead, without using tarot; it would take less energy from me (thus enjoyable) and it would be more effective for them.
You can be detailed and practical with tarot about these topics if you try hard enough, but 'sitting with the person, confirming every relevant fact about their problem and constructing an action plan for them' will be a lot more effective and certain. I don't want to be spending extra energy decoding the cards when I know at the end of the day, it's not necessarily more effective than therapy worksheets, life tips and career guides you can find online.
I was the kid who felt surprised when I found out two 'friends' hated each other because they seemed like they got along? I can see how Person A's personality can influence their decision in X situation, but it's harder for me to immediately see how Person A's decision will be influenced by Person B's personality in X situation. It's the shit I normally, in my day-to-day life, forget to consider.
Thus in this case, tarot is necessary and effective, because it helps me understand and get familiar with interpersonal dynamics (an interaction of variables such as personalities, status, power, etc and how they all feel) since I'm not natural at recognizing them in person. I can now see the power dynamic in a social group, I can now see how compliments I receive from authorities can influence my peers and their behaviors towards me, I can now see the differences between the influence water signs have on fire influenced people VS earth influenced people. I couldn't do this before.
I'm usually fine with those topics because they fit my goals. I like seeing interactions between different intrapersonal and interpersonal variables and see what can come out of those. It's intellectually interesting to note the similarities and the differences in each case, to recognize how they feel energetically and emotionally, so that I can improve how fast and how accurate I can spot them in real life, even without tarot.
I like all relationship readings, but people tend to like love readings, which are also fine because it's still the same thing and also lighter, which fits my fatigue.
Hi can you please make a guide on Blair Waldorf please
character
romanticize studying and prioritize intelligence; blair is literally the definition of hot and educated.
confidence and self-stability is key; realize you are the only you there will ever be!
realize you cannot control other people, you can only control you.
“you can’t make people love you, but you can make them fear you.”
don’t be afraid to be determined, passionate, and GO HARD for what you want and don’t give it up for anyone.
“if you really want something, you don’t stop for anyone or anything until you get it.”
set standards for all relationships. you deserve to be surrounded by your kind of people and have what you want.
“the most important thing in a relationship is trust. after sex. and hygiene. and earning potentials.”
don’t be afraid to be a little selfish sometimes. if your goals require you to keep to yourself, study all the time, move, whatever it may be, do it and realize there will always be people that try to keep you where you are and stop your growth, but keep your eyes on the prize and don’t let it happen!
“whoever said that money doesn’t buy happiness didn’t know where to shop.”

☆ My character/personality is also one of the things that I have manifested and I am very happy. I am the baddie I always wanted to be.
Literally everything works out in my favor and I love it! ♡ ♡ ♡
Pull a card with the intention of drawing the representation of yourself
Next step: literally research the shit out of the card: astrological significance, tree of life association, what element, what step on the journey to ascension does it represent, color theory, entity associations etc etc etx
This is about learning about yourself, introspection is key, and research in your craft is key.
Essentially do a deep dive on a card which is heavily associated with yourself at this time
11) Talk about how you personally see Aphrodite
I will always remember the first time Aphrodite came to me in a dream. She was walking towards me from the beach, the scent of the sea in the air and the song of the waves serenading her. Before I even really took her completely in, I knew it was her. There was just this strange mix of calmness and intensity that could only be described as Aphrodite. When she got close enough that I could actually take her beauty in I realized that she didn’t stick to one look. Her hair was long then short, curly then straight. Her skin was pale and then dark and then every gorgeous shade in between. Even her body was in a constant state of transformation, each part of her varying in its plumpness and thinness. She was ever changing, fully representing the endless amount if beauty that has, does, and will ever exist. I saw all of you in her. And that’s how i personally see Aphrodite.
“I’ll send you on an express train to hell”
This African-Brazilian is Michiko Malandro. She escaped an inescapable prison four times. She rescued an abused foster child by running her motorcycle through their house. She out danced and out drank a stripper for simply looking at her the wrong way, and didn’t even flinch when being held at gunpoint by a mexican gang. She held her own in a shoot out against a professional assassin and once held down a hot air balloon with nothing but her arms and teeth. Michiko Malandro is loud and sassy and doesn’t take shit from anyone. This girl is my queen.
How are we doing today ladies. Are we still losing it. Are we going completely insane
🌊 Subtle Aphrodite Worship 🦪
Make your body wash/shampoo/conditioner rose scented
Have a rose or sweet scented candle that you light (doesn't have to be on an altar)
Create a skin/body care routine
Have perfume/cologne that you dedicate to her
Wear jewelry that reminds you of her
Carry a pocket charm that reminds you of her (dove works well in a Christian household and is a sacred animal of hers)
Keep a small picture of her in your wallet (maybe carry modern art and claim she is a character from something if asked)
Wear a locket with a picture of someone you love or of her
Give compliments to strangers
Drink water regularly and dedicate a glass of it to her
Collect seashells (if possible)
Collect things you simply find pretty
Get a stuffed animal of a dove or swan/have imagery of those animals around (dove works especially well in a Christian household)
Plan your outfits/wear clothes that make you feel good
Keep a journal of poetry dedicated to Aphrodite and love-related topics; can also be a general positivity journal or diary (maybe a diary in a way of writing letters to her but saying a code name instead of "Aphrodite")
Keep heart-shaped imagery around
Embrace yourself; give yourself love
Forgive yourself of past mistakes
Give yourself compliments; start small if needed; I recommend doing this in a mirror
Pin up pictures of loved ones on a mirror or wall
If possible, burn some incense in honor of her; strawberry always has a great smell to it
Watch a love-focused movie (romantic or platonic)
Listen to or read stories about acts of kindness and love
Paint your nails or wear make-up (if you enjoy those things and are able to)
-
I may add more to this later, but here is my list of subtle ways to worship Aphrodite so far! Worship can absolutely be discreet, and if it needs to be for safety or the like, know that the gods will almost certainly understand. Take care, y'all! 🩷

in this post i’ll explain how to interpret cards in a yes no fashion, and include my person cheat sheet of every card and it’s yes or no, or maybe.
please remember, this is my personal interpretation, you can follow it exactly or do it your way!!!!
make sure you have a good deck with good imagery. i would also suggest having a very good idea of each card. you don’t need to be super experienced with cards, but be able to have some basic key words and meanings behind each card. test yourself. pull random cards and see if you have a story, keywords, meanings, etc… something for each card. then start
for yes/no, you only need to pull 1- unless you are also finding the “why”. but i would just pull one card. if you haven’t- read this post of mine first
then take into account everything i’ve said(people, expressions, colors, etc….) and use that in a yes/no fashion.
keep in mind: no card has a set “yes” or “no”, but you can take into account the vibe behind it and the meanings. for example- the sun is a super positive card, so yes. while the 9 of swords is quite negative, so no.
as for court cards: i wouldn’t try to use a court card for a yes/no. i would use court cards as attitudes instead. for example: if you say- should i take the job at xyz… and it says knight of swords, i wouldn’t say yes/no, i would say don’t be to hasty on making a decision (i would probably pull more to clarify, but you get the idea). here’s some info that may be helpful
pages: feminine, younger, immature, naieve, messengers
knights: masculine, young, young adult, hasty
queens: feminine, older, mature
kings: masculine, older, mature
MAJOR ARCANA
fool- yes, with eyes open (be aware)
magician- yes, if the resources are there.
high priestess- you already know the answer. maybe
empress- yes
emperor- whatever is the best decision, logically. use surrounding cards to help or pull more. so, maybe
hierophant- maybe. follow the traditional answer, or ask for help from a trusted individual.
lovers- maybe, the answer may change as you go.
chariot- there isn’t a yes or no. it’s up to you to make the answer as you go. (yes, but nothing will happen if you don’t make it)
strength- yes, but will take hard work.
hermit- maybe, but there needs to be a better evaluation to thought behind this situation.
wheel of fortune- the answer will come to you, leave it for now if you can and come back to it. yes, if you really need an answer.
justice- maybe. justice is weird bc if you’re good- you’re good, but if you’re bad- you’re not good😭 take that how you see it
hanged man- maybe. look at the situation differently, then ask again.
death- this card will probably show itself during a hard time or ending. it’s a yes, but one that doesn’t come easily, but is needed.
temperance- yes, but have a good head and mindset moving forward.
devil- no
tower- no
star-yes, and trust the universe/god/spirit/etc…
moon- there isn’t enough information to come to an answer.
sun- huge yes
judgement- yes
world- yes
PENTACLES:
pentacles regard financial and material possessions. pentacles also represent stability and a sense of feeling grounded. here is a simplified yes/no key:
timing: slow moving, won’t be quick. months or years
financial: depends on the card (read below), but advises you to make sure financials are set and you are stable.
love: make sure the foundation is stable and everything else is set in place.
love language: gift giving, acts of service
person: an earth sign
ace- yes
2- no, it will be too much to carry. or too stressful.
3- ask a friend or trusted individual for help, yes but may need teamwork.
4- yes, the foundation is stable, but be aware of not being open to different options.
5- no, the financial situation is not at best or stuff is not aligned for a yes.
6- yes
7- yes, but don’t be upset if things don’t turn out EXACTLY how you expect. life doesn’t work that way.
8- yes, but it won’t come easy. hard work and dedication is needed here. and if you can’t do that, then take it as a no.
9- yes
10- yes
page- be open to learning new things and being open in general. this a “learn about every other option before making a decision”
knight- take this situation slow before doing anything. the answer will come along the way.
queen- yes but make sure you’re stable before anything
king- yes, but don’t over do it.
WANDS:
wands represent spirituality, passion, and hobbies. wands will probably pop up regarding situations of passion or at a time of high energy.
timing: very quick. days
financial: follow whatever your heart desires, and what your truly love. don’t get burnt out.
love: very passionate, but don’t make too quick of decisions and don’t be judgmental.
person: fire sign
love language: physical tough, quality time, acts of service.
ace- yes
2- maybe. consider your question heavily. i think you know the answer if this card is pulled.
3- yes, but you may need to wait a little and be patient:
4- yes
5- no
6- yes
7- mmmmm no.
8- yes, also fast/action filled energy here. don’t make too quick of a decision.
9- no
10- no
page- there isn’t enough energy or attitude at play here to make a decision that will benefit you. make a decision when you’re more energized and upbeat.
knight- don’t run into things, or make a decision to quickly.
queen- be confident about whatever decision you make.
king- confidence is key, but don’t be rude or judgment about whatever decision you make and others involved. passion is needed here as well.
CUPS:
cups represent feelings, emotions, and love. when cups show during a yes/no, you may be feeling either really low or very loved and happy. your situation may need to be rethought, or may need you in a better mentality.
timing: 5+ weeks - months
financial: you may be happy where you are, or you need to really consider this. you may be making a decision based on emotions, and that is not ideal.
love: romantic and full of love. can turn manipulative.
person: water sign
love language: physical touch, quality time
ace- yes
2- yes, but if this is legal or has to do with an important contract or deal, really be aware of all of the aspects and rules.
3- yes
4- no, the answer will probably not satisfy you. reconsider your options.
5- no.
6- maybe, with yes leaning. depends on who or what ur asking about.
7- you have many options. consider all of them before making a decision.
8- no.
9- yes
10- yes
page- the decision you make may be risky or shock you. be prepared
knight- a different option may arise than you are currently asking. be patient or look at things differently during this time
queen- this decision needs a calm, collected person. if you find you don’t have the personality or traits of a calm, kind, caring person, maybe this choice is not for you.
king- this king is connected. if you choose an option, choose one where you stay connected.
SWORDS:
swords represent truth, clarity, honesty, and communication. swords can mean that not all the answers/options are present in the moment, or someone is/isn’t telling the truth. of course, each card varies, but you get the idea.
timing: weeks
financial: make sure all options are on the table, and follow your brain. be logical. don’t be afraid to communicate issues or problems.
love: a very clear cut person, straightforward, good communication.
person: air sign.
love language: acts of service, words of confirmation
ace- yes
2- maybe, leaning towards no. you aren’t seeing all aspects rn and it is too uncertain.
3- no
4- maybe, with learning towards no. sleep on this.
5- no
6- maybe:depends on question. this card is ab leaving things and moving forward, take that as you see it.
7- no
8- no, you aren’t seeing things truly. there is also bias here.
9- no
10- no
page- be ready for whatever you choose, but don’t jump to conclusions.
knight- this card is even more hasty than the knight of wands- so REALLY be careful regarding speed here.
queen/king: swords are all about logic, clarity, and truth. make sure you have all aspects of the situation before making a decision.
