Spirit guides --- tarot spread ---

💜Your spirit guides are here, right now. 

They’re an inevitable part of our existence but we might be still learning to be aware of their presence. Wise advice popped up in your mind, sudden turn to the unknown street to bring you to the amazing place, strange butterfly, symbols hidden in bus numbers.

There is an immense dramatic element to be here, on this earth, carrying the grandness of your soul, with all that stories, karma, dimensions, previous lives, and trying to manage in the same time - soul mission, releasing karma, integrating aspects and aspects of self, merging with soulmates, helping humanity, helping Earth and yet not forgetting to take care of yourself. 

💜We’re not supposed to go alone.

Your soul is weaved with all the beings out there - they speak to you, merge with your feelings, guide and bring all of you together, they root for you, love you. They’re your portals and main teachers, your soul family, they can be you.

Put spirit radio on, tune into the vibes you need nowadays.

***Spirit guides tarot spread can be a lot, just a lot of everything***

🔮 know the spirit guides connecting with you at present moment: ancestors and animal spirits, ascendant masters, angels, extraterrestrial beings, your Higher self

🔮 be aware of ways they connect with you, purpose and mystery of your connection - here you can learn about own unique abilities and psychic predispositions + study your personal myth and history 

🔮 find out how you can deepen connection with the spirit guides 

🔮 find out what is blocking you from connecting with the spirit guides and how to work through that

🔮 get messages from the spirit guides, something they’re trying to convey to you at present moment - it can be anything, from very practical things to mysterious revelations 

🔮 if you’ve a question to your guides this spread can be a portal trough which you can try to get an answer 

This spread needs highly intuitive or psychic reading, you’re definitely going to decipher the specific ways the spirit guides use to speak through tarot. 

Some ideas to begin with:

Lay down cards 1-9 first and interpret them. 

1 - basically this is you, your current state in general or in regard to the spirit guides - your feelings, expectations, attitude.

2-9:

Major Arcana or court cards represents the spirit guides

Minor Arcana cards: all about your connection with the spirit guides (if this is what you’re interested in), 

messages for you (especially if you’re asking your guides specific question) 

Depending on 1-9 cards, you can lay down a-p cards. Consider to do that especially when there are no spirit guides among 1-9 cards. 

a-p cards can be interpreted differently from 1-9 cards, as spiritual work need to be done, challenges to overcome, interference to clear away.

On Worshipping Hades

There are a ton of posts out there for signs and symbols, offerings and all that. Regardless, I’m making this post because Hades is the God I receive the most asks about, and this post was highly requested.

The Basics

Offerings:

Coins & other money (traditionally gold or brass, but all money works)

Stones, especially dark, jagged stones

Alcohol, especially wine

Honey

Milk or Water

Tobacco

Herbs: cypress, mint, myrrh, patchouli, bay, pumpkin, yew, wormwood, cinnamon, lavender, willow, oak

Flowers: marigold, dandelion, rose, lily, daisies, rowan, poppy, daffodils, calendulas 

Oils, especially olive oils and vinegars

Salts and spices

Shells or bones of the earth

Teas, especially blacks and oolongs

Breads or cakes

Fruits, such as apples and pomegranates

Meat (especially lamb)

Incenses: frankincense, myrrh, wormwood, sandalwood, cinnamon, rose, pomegranate

Candles: black, grey or silver

Symbols:

Dogs (Cerberus, specifically), black lambs, serpents and screech owls

Precious jewels, money, metals

Cypress, white asphodel, mint, narcissus

Drinking horn

Sceptre

Key

Helm of darkness

Black, grey, silver, gold

Nighttime

Autumn and Winter

Cemeteries, crossroads, forests, caves and mines

Ideas for the Altar:

Black mirror

Black cloth

Dark stones, such as hematite, onyx, obsidian, jet and the like

Shells

Dirt from outside, or graveyard dirt

Black, grey or silver candles

Flowers (dried works well too)

Bones (ethically sourced)

Representations of any of His symbols, listed above

Money, especially rare coins

Silver, or other precious metals

Family heirlooms

Active Practice

Worship Etiquette:

As with all chthonic deities, offerings are usually poured down. Offerings that float up (such as incense) are less common, but can be used.

Food offerings are usually buried instead of eaten. However, if need be, you may eat them.

Offerings are often buried, poured down the drain, or into the trash. This is done to ‘complete’ the offering.

This is very traditional, but I want to include it for extra information. In a temple with a roof, offerings would often be left by His feet all day and then during at night. Also, since the Mycenaean period, priests of Άδης would rhythmically pound their hands on the ground whilst praying to Him. I will sometimes tap (not pound) my head to the floor while praying in honor of this tradition.

As always, be polite. Hades will forgive any mistakes with a forgiveness offerings and continued respect.

Ideas for Active Worship:

Saving money, and spending it wisely

Cleaning litter from cemeteries, and tending to old graves

Offerings to the dead, as well as money to the spirits of the dead to let them pass on, and donating the physical change

Collecting crystals and stones

Making an altar to tend dead spirits

Studying other cultures’ burial methods and cemetery rites

Donating to burial, mortuary or funeral services

If you communicate to spirits, treat them kindly and help them move on

Ancestral worship

Praying

Devotional poems and artwork

Dedicating items to Him, such as jewelry, a wand, or a specific bone

Working with death energy and dying plants during autumn and winter

Caring for dogs kindly

Reflecting on your thoughts and emotions on death 

Helping others who have experienced loss

Frequently Asked or Requested Information

Hades can help with:

Fears about death or dying

Suicidal tendencies

Chronic illness

Money and business

Creativity

Moving on 

Releasing regrets, guilt, and past relationships

Seasonal worship and practice

Earth magic and herb work

Recovery from trauma

Spirit work, namely spirits of the dead

You DO NOT need to:

Be a spirit worker or death worker in order to work with Him

Swear an oath with Him, unless you’re 110% sure to commit

Be a devotee in order to worship Him

Only worship Him

Speak super formally to Him

Be someone you’re not in order to worship Him

How to Do Witchcraft Research for Newbies

Basic search:

Get off Tumblr. (I know, it’s hard.)

Direct your browser to Google.com.

Choose the main keywords of your question. For example, “what is calendula good for in witchcraft?” might be parsed as “calendula witchcraft magickal correspondences”.

Hit enter.

For more in depth research, try these sites:

JSTOR.org, if you have access to it.

Online public library catalogs to find books. (Search your county and “public library.”)

Amazon Kindle. It can be put on your computer for free, there is a Cloud Reader online and a free smartphone app. Filter by price and you can find witchcraft and occult ebooks for free through a few simple searches.

Google Books for the same purpose. (There is a shit ton here, btw, I use it all the time.)

Scribd.com for the same purpose.

Cornell University online witchcraft collection.

Hermetic.com for public domain magick texts.

Sacred-texts.com for all sorts of neat shit.

Alchemy-works.com for magickal lore on plants.

Search your county’s website for weed/plant information to get a list of things growing in your area.

Some tips to aid in research:

Use your browser’s bookmarks.

Use the Amazon wishlist to keep track of titles, or to keep an eye on titles that are occasionally offered for free on Kindle.

Look around on publishers, like LuLu, Immanion Press, etc, for self-published material.

Cross reference with lots of sources to keep on top of the BS.

Take good notes.

Dirty experience/field work is better than reading/book work.

Mkay? After you’ve done all that, come back and ask about what you still can’t find. (Trust me, you’ll find most of it, if not all and more.) You have no fucking excuse to be on Tumblr asking about the basics of paganism or what such and such plant does for witchcraft, or how to summon demons. Harassing people for basic knowledge gets you nowhere. There is so much out there even just online. You do not need the newest, shiniest books by the most popular authors. You do not need to attack people when they tell you to go research on your own. The information is right fucking there. Now go get it.

[naturesnun]

Here’s a fundamental instruction in performing any act of magick:

Decide what you want to occur.

Ensure that what you want to occur has a means of manifestation.

Choose an experience.

Decide that the experience means the same thing as what you want to occur.

Perform the act / undergo the experience.

Result.

Once you realize you’re a witch, witchcraft will always call to you.

[naturesnun]

You can never explain to your former faith that the water is fine. That you went past the forbidden gate, and entered the forbidden water, and it is good, and healing, and refreshing.

They have been told the water is not fine. The water is poison. The water will make you sick, make your bones turn brittle and your skin melt off. But you cannot use your health as proof of their error. Because they have a new answer now: it was a slow poison all along and one day those who entered the water will die a painful, gasping death with the water as the cause.

And when no one dies from the water, you still cannot tell them its fine. Because there’s another answer, too: that the water will get you after your dead, that the consequences are invisible, incomprehensible, known only on the other side of life.

There will always be another answer for why the water is poison, even if there is no proof. So all you can do is immerse yourself in the water. Find healing in it. Recognize that all along the forbidden gate was lying to you. Even if no one comes with you.

Witch Tip ✨

Washing your front door with basil and mint water can help clear the path for abundance and prosperity to find you more easily! 🌿

[naturesnun]

Tenets of the Gods

Baldr: The brightness of life. Let your presence be inspiring and beautiful to all. Allow your joy to radiate from within and become your aura. Bragi: Believe in the power of your words. Speak carefully with thought and precision. Let your praise empower and strengthen, and your insults dishearten and wither. Eir: Seek the cure. Help those in need, and offer comfort in whatever form you can. Reject the corruption of disease, any affliction can be treated and healed with the right approach. Fenrir: Destroy your chains and those who forge them. Never be cowed or submit in fear, reason should be met with respect but dominion with insurrection. Forseti: Deliver the beneficial compromise. Let peace be brokered and unnecessary conflict be evaded, good faith be honoured and deception be castigated. Freyja: Bask in your glory and empowerment. Let pleasure be a virtue, and self-determination be the basis of your strength. Revel in your emotions for they are your power. Freyr: Advance the endeavour of growth. Nurture life in all its forms and display the beauty of progeneration. Anything can take root and grow given the right conditions. Frigga: Provide and protect. Let all you care for be comfortable and safe, and no need be denied. The fire can warm but also burn. Heimdall: Vigilance and caution. A misstep may bring misery and an unheard word, disaster. The way forward is clear and danger is transparent, when the time is taken to identify it. Hela: Death is but the other half of life. Let stillness be, and quiet guide your thoughts. Endings should be neither sought nor feared, an end is but the opportunity for further beginnings. Idunn: Wisdom in youth. Let the words of babes ring with your consciousness and seek the truth held in their innocence, ignorance is found in the dismissal of the young. Loki: Freedom in fun and change. Do not be bound by norms and civility, evil is often disguised as order, and the fabricated as natural. The good thing is not always the common thing, deviation can lead to delight. Modi: Evolve and progress. Find no contentment in maintaining a status quo. Each day be better than yesterday, see the good of your forebear and strive to excel further. Seek, always, the betterment of your theory and actions. Njord: Ebb and flow, give and take. Action begets reaction, matter demands a void, for happiness there must be sadness, for gain there must be loss. Balance is a virtue, no one approach can suit every obstacle. Odin: Wise and learned. Always search for the opportunity to learn, wisdom is found in the diversity of life. Give your knowledge freely and be gracious in reception, a mind in isolation is a mind that does not grow. Sif: Be proud and know your worth. Demand your place and your right to exist in the world. Pay mind to fair criticism but reject detractors wholly. Take pride in yourself, and seek betterment for your own sake. Sigyn: Steadfast and devoted. Stand firmly for what you believe, keep loyal to that you love. Nothing worth doing is easy, no worthwhile thing is effortless. Love takes work, and ideals require labour. Skadhi: Justice through vengeance. Vileness be met with viciousness, the unforgivable can not be forgiven, though reason may temper rage. Covert, can be calamity, and war kept for a better day. Thor: Powerful protection. Vie for strength in soul and arm, to protect is to persevere against evil, contest not only in arms but in wills. To bring joy against misery, hope against despair, and a hammer against tyranny. Tyr: Honour and sacrifice. Victory is not always decisive, a small win leads to the larger success, a minor loss can avert the grander. Achievement can come in portion just as well as in entirety. Ullr: Mirth in contest. Appreciate fair competition and find joy in the fight, to train you must have a partner, to win - a rival. In loss be grateful for the challenger and in victory, for the challenge. norsegodcalls These are some personal interpretations of the kinds of values and virtues that the gods each have, written up as specific tenets.

My Spiritual Protection Tips:

🖤 dragon’s blood incense is a good protective energy additive to spells and wards. burn it for protection.

🖤 shells with horns and spikes make great protective charms for rooms.

🖤 black tourmaline and white jade are a power couple when it comes to negative energy removal and protection.

🖤 i use black candles for banishing and white candles to transmute negative energy into positive energy.

🖤 create servitors/thoughtforms for protection.

🖤 visualizing impenetrable armor around your body, golden light, and shields are great exercises.

🖤 i like to take a bundle of cedar and walk around in each space that has bad energy, sweep it over my body, and then safely burn it in a cauldron or fire safe dish. visualizing that all the negative energy it has collected is being transmuted into abundant blessings.

🖤 if you work with spirits or deities, petition them, pray to them, ask them for help.

🖤 drink green tea to heal any damage in your energy and aura.

🖤 a fresh vase of flowers helps to raise a space’s vibration.

🖤ritual baths with sea salt, sage, cedar, any oils or potions you like to work with for protection will help.

🖤 charge a glass of water with purifying intent before drinking (can be done anywhere/anytime)

🖤exercising helps to heal your energy and cleanse all stagnant energies out of your system.

🖤 putting a drop of skin safe lavender essential oil on energy points, (i like putting them on my wrists and the nape of my neck), will seal off entrances for negative spirits so they cannot possess you.

🖤 with a strong intention just tell the energy to leave. it works wonderfully.

🖤 petition archangel michael with a candle for him, dress it with cinnamon pieces, cinnamon oil, orange slices, orange oil, and let it safely burn to protect you from all lower vibrational energies.

🖤 if possible; a quick trip to the beach, regardless if you are a sea witch or not, will help purify and protect you from bad energy.

🖤 visualize opening an energetic black hole and push all the negative energy into it banishing it then, close it up.

🖤 elixirs made with cinnamon, pepper, salt, and sage are great for dressing protection candles.

🖤obsidian, onyx, black hematite, and black tourmaline are my favorites for absorbing negative energy and transmuting it.

🖤 meditate with a smokey quartz to ground stagnant energy.

🖤selenite will cleanse and open up blocked energy channels letting positive energies flow easier.

🖤my favorite protection herbs: rosemary, palo santo, cedar, sweetgrass, and sage of any kind (can be dried garden sage)

🖤 ALWAYS remember to invite only positive, abundant, high vibrational energies into your space after cleansing. this is very important because once negative energy is gone it can leave a void allowing more negative energy to enter.

[to any deity in particular]: Hi. I’ve brought shitty alcohol, two electric candles, a chocolate bar, my many issues, and an undying love for you. Can you help me un-fuck myself?

[deity]: sighs deeply

When sweet and bitter mingled together, no reed was plaited, no rushes muddied the water, the gods were nameless, natureless, futureless.
