What EVEN 😂😂😂😂

In preparation for my next post, have…

The Theban Alphabet

It will be used in my next post! Think of it as a secret alphabet for all you in the broom closet!

I discovered I have faeries!!!

I recently discovered I have a little pixie who has been living in my house since before we bought it. She is literally the tiniest thing, only roughly an inch tall, and loves vanilla and sugar.

I used my new pendulum, which I shall post about later, and struck up a random conversation that began with my brother asking the pendulum was what was better than canned beans and the pixie replying with sugar, and ended with my sister asking what the name of the spirit who was answering the question.

Deck Interviews and why they are Important!

Hi guys, it’s Mai, and I happen to have a special post today!

Today we will be learning why deck interviews are important- for tarot and oracle cards. You see, every deck is different. Even tarot decks. Even mass produced decks! Each deck has its own individual personality, and I don’t think a lot of people realize this.

Each time I get a new deck of any divination card, I conduct a simple deck interview:

(Thank you @dailygrimoire for your wonderful spread; they also have a great post on bonding with your decks!)

As you interpret the cards, write it down, like you’re writing a paper for work or school. You’ll find it’s easier to understand when it’s not “reversed magician, upright 3 of swords?? What????”

Remember, each deck is different. My Silmarilion Oracle deck is a very pessimistic deck, but it gives you straight facts. My demonic arcana deck (by @crimson-chains and @kaizuart ) is very eager to please, but might try too hard sometimes.

(But seriously go look at the art for the demonic arcana deck it’s gorgeous)

I learned these things about my decks by asking them. You won’t get anywhere with them without making an effort!

There’s a reason this salt dough recipe is the first thing in my grimoire. Very few tools have been quite as versatile as this. I have made offering bowls, a measuring spoon, a deity statue, runes… and I could go on.

Salt dough is wonderful for witchery because you make it yourself, it’s cheap af, you can make it with things you steal from the kitchen while you’re stealing McCormack herbs (don’t lie, you know you’ve done it), and it’s salt based which is like the witchiest of witch things.

The small discs on the page are my latest idea, which is outlined in the second note on the page. I mixed dried herbs into the salt dough, formed discs, let it dry, and now I’ve got these portable little magic herb discs. The ones on the page are basil and powdered sugar for drawing wealth at work. But the possibilities are endless. If you can make an herb sachet or powder, you can probably also make it a salt dough disc.

Witch tip: set these out on a dish to dry by your window to give it all that good sun and moonlight.

Look guys I'm not dead! Tumblr just screwed up with my account, an my life went nuts for a while , but I'm back!

Well, I go across like a book. Like reading a paper! You can go in whatever order makes sense to you (weird huh I’m of unpopular divination opinions).

I-

I used to work togos at a restaurant. And we sold those for Uber and DoorDash-

That’s Buddy V’s Rainbow Cake by the slice-

@anathemaegg asked where I get rainbow cake by the slice, and unfortunately I have a non-answer for you, because it's a local specialty grocery store where I work.

BUT the good news is that we don't make it, it's shipped in frozen and we just thaw it out, slap a store logo on it and call it homemade.

("Um, Jes, wtf? You can just do that???" Yes, and in fact QUITE A LOT of the 'store brand' items you buy in stores are just name-brand stuff we buy in bulk for cheap, divide into smaller containers, and then sell. MAGIC.)

Anyway.

It's this cake. IDK where you can find it around you, but check stores in your area. It'll be in the bakery department, probably in a refrigerated cooler with the other fancy desserts.

The first 5 cards in my oracle deck, taken at 11pm- behold! The Silmarilion! I’ve already lore dropped on another post, so I won’t dump my nerdiness on y’all.
