Tarot Tuesday - New Week Fresh start

Image
Hello all! I think this'll be our last spread for a while so let's see what this one has to offer! CREDIT FOR THIS SPREAD GOES TO: @THESTARSEEDWITCH This is an 8 card spread and goes as follows: 1 - The overall theme of the week  2 - Something that needs your focus (goal or intention) 3 - An opportunity to look out for during the week  4 - The big lesson of the week  5 - Something that is no longer serving you, let it go, it's holding you back  6,7,8 - These 3 cards indicate potential events/happenings that could occur during the week  I think that this spread would be great for those looking to advance their Tarot skills and it would be a good mental exercise for those looking for something more in-depth than a daily card pull. I think we'll leave this here! Good luck with the upcoming Moon energies! Blessings, C )0(

Hello all! We have a Full Moon post for you today! The Full Moon itself will take place on the 23rd but will go into the 24th in the UK! This Full Moon is in Scorpio ♏ and will give you the emotional release you have been needing! However, you may have to confront emotions, situations and memories that may be less than savoury but, this may be the thing that is holding you back. This Moon will give you the strength to move on from your pass and give you the energy to start healing if that is what you feel you need to do! At the time of writing, in retrograde: - Mercury  Crystals Here are some Crystals to work with during this Full Moon: - Moonstone/Black Moonstone - Selenite - Smokey Quartz - Amazonite - Obsidian - Lapis Lazuli - Citrine - Jasper - Aquamarine - Red Jasper - Agate - Hematite If you're drawn to any other Crystals during this time, use those too!

Tarot Tuesday - The Relationship Spread

Image
Hello all! We have another little spread for you today! This one comes from a booklet from one of my many decks (The Vampire Tarot) which is fitting as I'm using the Vlad Dracula Tarot to showcase it! This spread, as the name suggests, is about relationships whether it's romantic, familial, platonic, professional ect. This is a minimum of 9 cards (I'll explain at the end) and is divided into 3 separate sections, which I have colour coded: So, well start with the first (black) section: Cards 1, 2, 3 - This section is about you, the one asking the question. It'll tell you what you need to know about yourself in regards to the situation  The next (blue) section: Cards 4,5,6 - These cars represent the other party, the relationship, in it's current state. It is important to use your intuition with this section  The last (dark green) section: Cards 7,8,9 - This is the bridge between you and the other party. It overlaps the other sections and reve

Tarot Tuesday - Complex Etteilla Spread

Image
Hello all! We're breaking up the Tarot Tuesday posts a bit with a few spreads before going onto our final suit. This works out well since I have a subscription to a Tarot magazine, which have lots of spreads in them! This featured spread comes from Total Tarot pt 46 This is a 6 card spread but the layout is quite simple and is still good for beginners or those looking to advance from daily tarot pulls or 3 card spreads. This isn't a specific question spread and is mostly used as an overview to better picture what is going on with the person who's having the reading.The cards are as follows: 1 - The Home. This card shows the energy/environment around the person  2 - The Person. Card 2 represents the person themselves  3 - The Symptom. This card shows what the person sees as the problem  4 - The Problem. The actual problem (card 3 may or may not be obscuring it) 5 - The Advice. This is what the person needs to do to improve things and reach their

Emporiblog - April New Moon 2024

Hello all! We have a fun moon for you today! I'll be publishing this the day before the actual Moon (which is on the 8th) This New Moon is in Aries ♈ and it is best to hold off on manifesting. The universe has already heard you and is already putting things in motion. This moon is the best time to reflect and heal so that neglected shadow work is going to give you a not so subtly nudge. I know it's scary but, this particular time will help you face the shadows and the darkness head on and will (eventually) yeld the revelation you need.  This is also going to combine with a total solar eclipse on the 8th, the eclipse portal, a certain retrograde, Chiron (astroid) will be in conjunction with the moon and the aftermath of Storm Kathleen for the UK! Currently in retrograde, we have: - Mercury  Crystals Here are some Crystals for the New Moon: - Moonstone - Rhodochrosite - Citrine - Adventurine - Lepidolite - Topaz (Blue) - Carnelian - Diamond - Ruby - Aquamarine - Hemat

Emporiblog - Nova Explosion and Chaos

Image
Hello all! We're in for a massive amount of energy coming our way so, let's have a look at what's causing everything! Nova Explosion At some point between now and September (if it hasn't already happened) there will be a celestial explosion that will be briefly visible from Earth for about a week. We don't have a front row seat of course but what we will see is a really bright star that isn't normally visible. The explosion is taking place in the Corona Borealis constellation (between the Booties and Hercules constellations). Since the last recorded Star system nova was in 1946, I'd say that this is a rare event. Now, if you work with celestial, astronomical or chaos energy, you'll definitely want to harness this energy! I would also say that it can be used for baneful purposes as well since a star exploding would be quite a violent event. Eclipse Portal Since I've only recently come across this term, the timeframe is limited. The Lun

Tarot Tuesday - King Of Coins

A preface : The suit of Coins is also commonly called pentagrams or pentacles (these are actually pentacles cough killstar cough) The suit of Coins is associated with the element of Earth. Pictured Above The purpose of this section is to help you with your own interpretations. In the card pictured above, we can see a skeleton king (not Jack) with a fancy crown, clothes and a subtle staff/sceptre. He is holding a crown whilst surrounded by plants. Clouds are in the background as well as snow or rain Meaning Mostly financially centered again: - Abundance/Wealth - Business (Current or incoming) - Security (in all areas, emphasis on finances) - Leadership/Discipline Summery: You have earned what you have or it will come to you. You are a strong but fair leader  Reversed Meaning   This is a reality check: - Financially inept - Money obsessed - Status hungry - Stubborn (not in a good way)  Summery: You need a reality check, your goal
