The art of tea leaves reading - also known as tasseography or tasseomancy - appears to have begun around the XVIIth century, when the Chinese tea trade made its way into European society thus replacing the old techniques based upon spatters of lead or wax.
My kit was created to introduce you to this method and includes everything one needs to begin immediately!
It is READY TO SHIP and might even arrive in time for Lupercalia / Valentine’s!
It contains: ✥ VINTAGE TEACUP & SAUCER Delicate yet generous and sturdy. ✥ LOOSE TEA Your pick from a selection from @missmapletearoom. ✥ DIVINATION INCENSE Organic and handcrafted by me. ✥ BOOKLET Very simple instructions on how to start Tasseomancy. ✥ SYMBOLS & DIAGRAMS A5 CARD Dictionary of 168 symbols with their possible explanation on one side. Two Diagrams on how to read your cup on the back.
The card & booklet are illustrated by @gwendolinoleum

I just added the option of a “Bespoke Magick-Kit” tailored to your needs.
This one was created for and photographed by my dear friend @ampelopsisphoto
It could either be a mix between several existing sets or an entirely new one. Some themes could be: safe travels, energy, calming, creativity, etc. Contact me with any idea you have and I will concoct the perfect kit!
You can find all the kits in the MAGICK & APOTHECARY section of my b♡outique (link in profile)
As usual, the calligrahy on the booklet is by @gwendolinoleum
I am also working on something special for Lupercalia ♡ Valentine’s - in case that is something you are interested in. I am not sure if they will be ready in time for those of you who live abroad… But I cannot wait to share this new project! . . . . #underthepyramidstreasures #underthepyramids #portablemagick #portablemagic #witchesofinstagram #witchythings #witchcraft #folkmagick #folkwitchery #hedgewitch #solitarywitch #greenwitch #plantmagic #herbalmagic #pagan #occult #cottagecoreaesthetic #cottagecorestyle #darkcapture #darkaesthetic #sombre_moods (at Paris, France) https://www.instagram.com/underthepyramids/p/CZFb0g-IliQ/?utm_medium=tumblr
On this special day, I thought I would allow myself a couple of lines to be soppy.
☘ THANK YOU EVER SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT.
☘ I have been living from my passion for a few years, now. And despite some months being incredibly tough, to be honest, I couldn’t dream of a better life. One I couldn’t even have dared imagined living, really.
☘ So “merci beaucoup” for allowing me to craft magick for you, for trusting me with creating or imagining your dream piece(s) for and with you, for sharing my work, taking the time to leave encouraging comments, write messages and more.
Pictured are some of the pieces I crafted before the Winter celebrations. A little glimpse at the way I photograph every single piece I craft. Since each piece is unique, I send a preview photo to all the customers.
I wish you all a cosy end of the year. . . . . #underthepyramids #underthepyramidstreasures #portablemagic #portablemagick #yule #jul #yuletide #saturnalia #heathenry #folkmagick #cottagecorestyle #cottagecoreaesthetic #darkcapture #Ogham #Ngetal #SunCross #Jera #KeytoHell (at Paris, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/CX7D2frtpiO/?utm_medium=tumblr
One of my favourite pieces for this season is the Zhingwaak. A talisman inspired by the Pine tree, symbol of good luck, prosperity, health, longevity and wisdom.
Zhingwaak is part of my “Petroglyph” collection. Its name comes from the Algonquin / Ojibwe name for Pine,
The doily was a present from my dear @fevernest . . . . #underthepyramids #portablemagick #petroglyphs #petroglyph #NordicBronzeAge #greenmagic #zhingwaak #Yule #Jul #heathenry #pagan #folkmagick #cottagecoreaesthetic #cottagecorestyle (at Paris, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/CXZW_Hmoj3g/?utm_medium=tumblr
Study of a photograph by @brenandpip I recently came across the awesome account of @brenandpip and fell in love with their moody photograps. I had a ton of fun doing this study of one of their pictures. • • • #cottagecore #vintagemood #victorianinspired #piratecore #pirateart #procreateart #applepencil #digitalart #digitalpainting #art #dutchartist #artwork #drawing #characterdesign #characterart #portraitart #characterdrawing #characterillustration #visdev #beachnight #darkacademiaart #cottagecoreart #cottagecorestyle #gothicart #modernvintage #fairycore https://www.instagram.com/p/CRZXRmejkN4/?utm_medium=tumblr
LEONORA SPEEDPAINT ⭐ 2 min of relaxation ⭐ Do you like to watch speedpaints? If so, I would be willing to record myself drawing more often. I find it kind of satisfying to watch a sketch to be colored in.
As you can see, I do all of my sketches in pen. Not a erasing helps me put down more confident lines the first time around. I have been sketching like this for about 6 years. My sketching pen of choice is a BIC black or blue ball point pen.
