so, maybe I didn’t blow up on tiktok. and maybe my store didn’t sell out. but y’all wanna know who is always there for me ? YOU FOLX. the literal creme de la creme of the internet. most of my link traffic? comes from y’all. three of my very first sales ? y’all. who reblogged my OG content and were supportive even when I botched those amazing aromatic but hideous tea lights? YOU TUMBLR. you did that. and who reblogs my work as it’s growing and changing ? who responds to my artist calls ? lemme give y’all a hint.....YOU AGAIN.
so, I’m making some new products and want to send people some of them to have and test out for free and I will only be posting this info here on tumblr. y’all have repeatedly had my back and I’d like to give back. so if you like moon phase things, things that smell good (candles, wax melts, these little trinket trays), and would want to get free stuff to test out and review, please share this and hmu! my inbox is always open and I’m really looking forward to giving some new products away 🖤✨
PS. all these candles have surprise crystals in them 🌚🌝
So, not all of us are able to be open with our practice, and others of us just flat out don’t have money to dole out to buy supplies. That being said, here are some low-cost or straight up free supplies! **Note: Some of these involve my personal associations.**
Tiny glass bowls: You can literally find this at the dollar store and use them as offering bowls!
Twigs: You can use these to make wreaths, wands, holders for things, etc., and you can also use them in spells that involve banishment, separation, etc.!
Grass: Represents interconnection
Old mason jars: Storage for your herbs, crystals, etc.
Tea light candles: You can find these pretty much anywhere, and they come in bulk for cheap!
Kitchen herbs: You don’t have to go all out and by the tall containers of these; you can just go to the grocery store and buy a set of the small ones!
Air-dry Clay: Crayola sells this for cheap, and you can use this to make lots of things! Amulet coins, tiny bowls, figures, and more!
Old T-Shirts’s fabric: You can recycle old t-shirts and use them to make poppets or herb sachets!
Ribbon, twine, the likes: These can be used in wand-decoration, knotting spells, as sachet string, and literally anything else.
Tea Leaves: Teas are so varied with so many different properties, there’s pretty much infinite value here.
Seeds: Sunflower and pumpkin seeds are easy to find (because they’re snacks), and these have their own properties themselves!
Leaves: Whether they’re fresh off a tree (be respectful with that!), have fallen to the ground, or have completely dried up, leaves have lots of uses! Dried up leaves, for example, can be used in spells related to ending something, “death,” new beginnings, etc.
Tarot card combinations
Empress + Ace = childbirth
2 or more pages = Schools, education
4 of wands + Sun = Babyshowers, an amazing family gathering, sometimes weddings
King of pentacles + Magican (if querent is a man or NB) or high priestess (if querent is a woman)= Querent’s money
10 of swords + death = only time death can actually mean death (in my style of reading)
Death + king of pentacles = sudden changes of money
Death (reversed) + king of pentacles = need to change money situation; need to manage money differently
The Hierophant + 4 of swords = a place of worship, church, mosque, etc
That’s right 😂🔮👏🏻

People will often notice patterns to the cards they pull - you’ll notice that certain cards come up more often. This tends to be based on a feeling though, rather than any real data about which cards you’ve pulled - and the real data may surprise you.
I’ve kept track of the cards I’ve pulled in my single card readings over the past three months, and here are some things I’ve noticed:
I pull one card more frequently than any other card. In my case, that card is The Magician. It’s really useful to know - not just suspect - that one card turns up constantly for me.
Some cards don’t actually appear as frequently as I think they do. I recently pulled the Nine of Pentacles and thought, “Again?? Why do I pull this card so much??” but when I look at the actual data… I’ve pulled other cards way more frequently. I think it’s a form of the Baader-Meinhof effect - a card can stick in your brain for some reason and you remember it as appearing more often than it actually does!
There are interesting things about the cards that I don’t pull. In three months, these Major Arcana cards have never come up at all: The Emperor and The Devil. I can look at the data of what archetypes don’t appear in my life and draw some interesting conclusions. I’ve also not drawn a single court card (page, knight, queen, or king) from the suit of swords - swords tend to deal with conflict, which I maybe have less of during this particular time in my life
I can identify which suit and which numbered cards appear the most and the least in my readings. While the totals of Swords, Wands, Cups, and Pentacles I pull are pretty close to even, Wands eke out a little bit higher total than the others. Cups and Pentacles are tied, with Swords coming in last. If I didn’t have this data, I’d probably assume I pull Swords the most - because they leave the biggest impact on me when I do pull them! Of the numbered cards: I pull Aces of any suit the most, and Twos of any suit the least. This makes for some interesting patterns: The Magician is sort of the “Ace” of the Major Arcana, as well. Aces are about a very singular willpower whereas Twos are about partnership and duality. Through this pattern I can identify the focus the cards have on my life at this particular point in time.
I pull Major Arcana cards more than is statistically likely. The Major Arcana makes up 28% of the deck, but 39% of my pulls. The Major Arcana are more associated with long-term messages, and so my life may have more long-term type changes needing to be made during this period.
This is a quick guide to how you might interpret some of the overall themes you notice: Minor Arcana: temporary, easily changed, daily life, current situation Major Arcana: long term, archetypes, themes, life lessons, current lesson Wands: spirituality, inspiration, determination, strength, intuition, creativity, ambition and expansion; energy, motivation and passion. Cups: love, feelings, relationships and connection; emotions, intuition and creativity Swords: action, change, force, power, oppression, ambition, courage and conflict; thoughts, and words Pentacles: work, business, trade, property, money and other material possessions Aces: new beginnings, news, movement in a positive direction Twos: duality, connection Threes: creation, creativity, growth, action Fours: stability, structure Fives: tension, conflict, challenge Sixes: relaxation, harmony, reevaluation Sevens: mystery, disruption, adjustment Eights: action, movement, growth, change Nines: contemplation, reflection, looking to the next step Tens: conclusion, culmination, new beginnings, complexity Pages: youth, vitality, fascination, learning, and focus Knights: adventure, energy, missions, conviction, willfulness, recklessness Queens: curiosity, openness, expressiveness, creativity, flexibility Kings: authority, leadership, expertise, mastery, inflexibility
