Me reading your tarot cards: "Okay, I have drawn the Empress, the Queen of Discs, the, uh.... jack of diamonds, blue eyes white dragon, a couple of Swamp lands, and Pikachu."

Landslide by Fleetwood Mac except it’s playing through your car’s old radio cassette player as you drive alone through the desert at night. As far as you can tell, the nearest human life has got to be wherever that distant thunder is rolling in.

Oh you

Do you sometimes have this urge to go on an epic adventure that will completely change you as a person? Do you dream about pirate ships, highest mountains and deepest woods full of secrets, brave people seemingly not from this world? I want to discover the world so much that it almost hurts. Not just the world, but the magic in it. God, sometimes I just want to see the magic. I hope there is some of it left.

Alright

I want to talk about how cryptozoology is often toxic for Natives interested in it. I personally love cryptozoology, but I'm often uncomfortable while going through it because of how much content with w*ndigo, sk*nwalkers, or thunderbirds in it. So I can't stress enough to those involved in cryptozoology, please stop adding these spirits in with cryptids. Mothman, Jersey Devil, Nessie are all cryptids, but not Native spirits.

Here’s a quick little inforgraphic I put together on numbers in Tarot!

When I was just a baby Tarot reader still learning how to read the cards, I found it helpful to learn about the numbers in Tarot and how they can have similar meanings. By learning how numbers relate and progress I was able to learn the Minor Arcana quicker and with more accuracy.

If you’re just starting out with Tarot, take some time to do a deeper dive into the numbers and what they mean! It truly helps out with the learning process 🔮

The first pride was a riot, more specifically a riot against police violence. Trans women of colour like Marsha P. Johnson paved the way for the celebration of pride today. You cannot celebrate your pride this month, or any month if you aren’t also supporting Black Lives Matter and the riots going on against police violence right now. Us white LGBTQ+ need to stand up for our black siblings and their rights, their struggles. We need to amplify their voices and show any support we can.Hey! Better yet, reblog this version:

>Reveals the Death Tarot.

Do not be alarmed. ‘Death’ merely represents a change in circumstances, new possibilities for you, a transition. Your next card will be telling of what those changes–

>Reveals the Tower Tarot

O-oh, well it seems the change is a bit of a shake-up but I’m sure it…

>Reveals Ten of Swords

Oh wow. I didn’t even put the Minor Arcana into the– Wow. Yikes, wow. You’re fucked.
