The Wolf Moon:

The January Full Moon is frequently titled the Old moon, Ice moon, and the Wolf Moon, and speculations of the reasoning include the howls throughout the night during this period of the year for food was scarce for them and they were hungry.

Witches Bells are bells that are often hanging over the entrance door, used for a vast amount of time as a protective caution, and purifying the energies of those who walk through the doorway.

Besom:

A magickal broom particularly utilized to sweep and or swoop energies. This can be to cleanse, to guide smoke, or to remove stagnancy from oneself or dwelling. The Besom has been a tool for thousands of years.

Bundles:

An assortment of dried herbal sprigs that can be utilized by being hung or once burned. Please do not burn white mountain sage unless you are indigenous though, for it is a closed practice.

Candles:

The spark of a candle can purify the air and can also be applied for divination. Candles can be engraved, anointed, infused, and beyond. They also are great for incorporating the element fire.

Cauldron:

A fire safe dish or canister that can be used to brew potions, burn loose incense, or to boil a delicious meal. A classic staple for witches, a kettle is most used. Cauldrons also happen to incorporate every element.

Chalices:

A grail of a sort to be used for drinking brews personally, or offering concoctions to spirits, deities, or ghosts. They are commonly shaped comparably to a wine glass, but appearances can fluctuate

Charms:

A small ornament or sachet charmed with a particular purpose that can be carried or worn by a person for a variety of affects. This can range from jewelry to small vessels and accessories.

Crystals:

Crystals are rocks that are formed organically from the earth or grown in a laboratory. Although many people prefer natural crystals, they are unaware the reasoning for them being made in labs. The Earth has limited supply of these crystals that are extracted or mined from the natural resources that we have to offer, if we as people do not resolve this, Earth will be entirely depleted of its own magickal gems.

Decks:

Cartomancy has been used for thousands of years. There are three varieties of card decks in this aspect, the first being playing cards. The second is Tarot, and the third is Oracle cards. The origins of each vary; but the Romani people are mostly credited for the origins of Tarot.

Grimoire:

A Grimoire is a personal journal in which a witch or spiritualist puts their research and all magickal related texts. Grimoires can include collages, birth charts, correspondences, pressed flora, and recipes. Some people consider this sacred and share with nobody, whilst others happily share their work. The choice is up to you if you want one and what you might wish to do with it.

Incense:

An Incense a fragrant of biological materials such as powdered flora and resin or sap. Incense are used by burning them and allowing the smoke to create an aroma throughout your dwelling. There are three forms of Incense, Cones, Sticks, Loose Blends. A loose blend is a concoction of ground herbs as they are and usually require a charcoal to burn.

Mortar & Pestle:

The Mortar is a receptacle that is made of a tough material and formed like a bowl. The Pestle is the tool used to crush, grind, or powder the herbs. The Mortar and Pestle have been used for centuries in cooking, pharmaceuticals, and apothecaries.

Essential Oils:

Essential Oils are compounds extracted from plants into a liquid. This is like the essence and soul of said plant. Can be used for topicals and aromatic purposes. They are incredibly useful in potions that are not meant to be drank but sprayed or applied to the skin. Always make sure to use a bit of carrier oil and water with essential oils, as the potency can be acidic and will need to be diluted. Water alone however cannot properly mix it. Specific essential oils can be toxic and even lethal to animals, so it is imperative that you research it before use if you own any pets.

Pendulums:

A pendulum is an item that is suspended from stationary position so that energy and gravity may cause it to swing. This is used for a variety of reasons from divination, communication, and alignment of beings or spaces. One might use a pendulum board to commune with spirits or deities in a precise manner, but you can also use your hand. Always make sure to vet before proceeding to ask questions. Vetting is the process of assessing the pendulum by asking yes or no questions; one true, and one false. If it answers correctly, it is safe to proceed, if not, I recommend closing the space, cleansing, and warding before trying again.

Potions:

An enchanted liquid that can alter or transform one if drank. This is a sort of blanket term or a very brief word to use due to the various forms there are. Most are used from biological compounds such as essential oils or herbs, carrier oil, and a preservative. Potions can have remedies or poisons, all depending on the ingredients.

Runes:

Runes are an Ancient Germanic Alphabet that many use for divination. They can also be used as sigils because each Rune holds its own meaning. Witches write out the Runic Alphabet on small stones, bones, or marbles and gently toss them into a vessel and scry based on where they land or what falls at all.

Sachet:

A sachet is a relatively small cloth bag with a pull string. For those who practice, these are incredibly useful. Sachets can be used as charms, to carry crystals or cards, or filled with herbs and carried around or used in the bath. These are also referred to as Muslin bags.

Mirrors:

Scrying Mirrors are usually painted a reflective black and are used for divination purposes. In many cultures around the world, mirrors are portals, especially if two are placed parallel toward each other. Therefore, many practitioners ward, seal, or cover their mirrors when not in use. You never have to do that, but I recommend it.

Singing Bowls:

The singing bowl is a kind of bell created in Tibet and Himalayan cultures that produces healing frequencies and vibrations that are not only powerful but cleanse a space and person. Singing bowls can range in materials from forms of metals such as brass, or carved crystals.

Spoons:

You might be wondering why I added an eating utensil to this list. This is because there are so many ways to use this magically in mundane and ritualistic actions. I have a specific spoon set aside for scooping and stirring herbs in spells, and I recommend having one too. The way you stir or grind something has intention as well, you can stir it clockwise to attract something towards you, and counterclockwise to deter something. This can be applied to tea, coffee, or food before drank.

Sprays:

Mist and spray bottles bring a different degree of efficiency and genius to potions, infusions, and enhanced magickal oils. These can be applied to charms, sprayed on a surface or general space, used as perfume, or sprayed on linens and clothing for numerous and different intentions.

Talismans:

A talisman is an item, often a piece of jewelry that has religious or magickal properties through charming, charging, enchanting in order to bring the wearer protection, beauty, fortune, or discomfort. Examples of this are a rabbits foot, the seal of Solomon, or a pentacle necklace.

Veils:

A Veil is a hair accessory that is charmed and worn to shield and protect an individual’s energies. Most are scarves or bandanas, but you can get creative and use hairclips, scrunchies, or your hair itself. Empaths particularly can benefit from veiling as to not be subject to the energies around them and keep their thoughts and feelings and theirs alone.

Wands:

A hand-held stick or rod that holds magickal properties and essence and can be used to cast spells. I like to use wands to write sigils, runes, or symbols on auras, tools, doors, and mirrors. Most wands are made of wood or crystals, but the materials can vary.

You can look in thrift stores for old objects that seem powerful, sometimes they have candles too! Not only is it environmentally friendly compared to buying all new stuff, but you can also utilize the old magic to make something new and possibly connect with something new!
Recycling is very good, it’s a nice way of giving back to nature!

A couple things to keep in mind:

• Absolutely keep in mind the auras/general vibes of each item you want to get and take home
• Cleanse things when you get home, even if you like the aura; just keep in mind you want to keep that part as you’re cleansing and your intentions should be set properly 

thescarlettbitch:

I made Athena a candle and I feel like she likes it. It’s a small white pillar candle (I forget what they are called but it’s small) with some scented wax from one of my old candles that the wicked burned out but it still have a lot of wax dripped on it, some chamomile from a tea bag pressed into it, some dragon’s blood incense ashes, and a red thread, and a blue thread wrapped around it.

Developing your psychic\intuitive abilities is a process of healing yourself.

Your natural state is openness and being psychic is your right, as a right to live fully and express yourself without fear, being sacred and unique.

You’re wrapped in the history of humanity, of linegues and families, timelines with their lessons and pain. That shapes the form of trauma you are carrying. Every of us contains humanity inside, there is no way to escape, only to go deeper. You’re here to heal. Yourself. Every moment. Through changing thought patterns, choosing heart, choosing your highest path, your gift and mission, your sorevernity and power, choosing to remember and be brave. Yes, it needs a lot of bravery to start healing.

Your psychic nature is opening like a flower when your trauma is identified and approached with respect as an unavoidable part of human condition. Your psychic\intuitive abilities are awakened when you start embodying your true nature - healing, loving, open.

Spiritual responsibility.

Inner child.

Flower blooming in the midst of winter.

Dancing with spirit, in the moment.

That learning starts when time stops,

it’s not going to be about past or future, but about you,

your true nature.

With clothes and knowledge you can always try something new,

but for the deepest teachings of your inner teacher

you should leave behind your preferences

and wait, posing, slowly coming back into your body,

letting feelings flow and thoughts follow.

In the moment of no fear, doubt and guilt,

when you accept everything,

you’ll learn.

Age of Aquarius. Beginning. Key points:

* self-honesty

* re-wilding, coming back to your personal nature, truth

This is a healing journey,

there is always a wound, fear is wrapped even in the most shining smile. Your childhood can be an imprint of the main themes in your healing journey - this is a time when we can see deeper, when we’re wise enough to open for any experience and craving for teaching, no matter how harsh, horrible it can be, our soul is fresh with the memory of why we’re here.

So we’re ready to go - passed unnoticed to the adults, words and actions towards us as children can stay with us for years, mirroring in various difficult experiences.

Inner child

That’s all held in our inner child, the first sparkle of our personality free from conditioning by education, family, social groups etc., widely open for life and its experiences as they are, full of play, creative fire and ability to accept and give love. It’s the most clear imprint of our soul.

Trauma

Trauma shadows the inner child, making him\her retreat into the deeper parts of the psyche, he\she isn’t a warrior at all, so quietly slides inside, leaving vague memories.

When we approach the trauma - see it, starting to descend into it, slowly healing, the inner child is coming further.

Things that can bring the trauma into the light:

*** meditation and relaxation through any kind of technique that help your body and mind to open up and release stored energy of the wound,

*** setting intention that you’re ready to reveal your wounds and start healing can be a great deal, it’s a kind of signal you’re sending to your conscious mind at first and then letting this intention go, forgetting about it, you allow your unconsciousness connected with cosmos to start working on it,

*** focusing on the things that can point to your wounds:

• natal chart (look at Pluto, Chiron, Lilith)
• evaluating repeating negative patterns in your life, your blocks
• going to see your parents or staying with them for a while (the last thing is advised if you want no less but enlightenment)
• reflecting on the relationships with people closest to you,

*** trying to reconnect with your inner child - dance, sing, embrace your creativity and try to see how your inner child responds to that, eventually you can even write a letter to yourself as a child.

Healing

Healing is a slow process of opening up to the trauma, letting wounds to be revealed, accepted and healed. There is no specific time, pace, process to do that. It’s like letting the flower bloom, not trying to open up the petals, eventually ruining the natural process. That flower is your inner, truest teacher, eventually it makes us grow, teach us love, compassion, understanding, let our souls evolve.

Explore. Reframe. Embrace healthy conflict. Celebrate that value is in your effort, only that matters.

We can read the world around as a tapestry of symbols and divination messages. 

Yes, we tend to use tools - tarot, oracle, runes, crystal ball, but eventually that all is our aid kit, crunches, radio receiver. We always can get the messages we need without a use of special equipment — directly. 

Notes on how to start

• Begin with formulating your question and sending it to the universe, then let yourself forget about that and go about your day. In case you’ve no specific question, set an intention that you’re open to receive messages.
• Relax and have zero expectations, observe everything but without clinging, make all impressions smoothly passing through your senses, so the moment the message comes, intuition will make you to pose.
• Make sure that you read not only the symbol | message but pay attention to its means, ways and context. 
• Journal and work with the message to unravel its meaning and to ground the experience.

Your way of receiving messages is absolutely unique and unpredictable, yet here is some suggestions:

Names

• they can draw your attention, they can be common or sound like from somewhere in far galaxy - it doesn’t matter, don’t hesitate to research its meaning
• relate the meaning with aspect of your personality | personality trait or person in your life in present, past or future
• it can be message about energy | situation which is coming 
• connect the name meaning or your personal connotation with tarot court cards - it can work magically 
• dive deeper if you feel the message resonates with you and research the numerology of name to get wider perspective - life theme, archetypes and core question in play 
• pay special attention to context and the most importantly what was your first feeling the moment you encountered that name

Numbers 

• repeating numbers, obviously
• flat numbers, bus numbers, phone numbers and whatever - do your numerology
• consider the way the number was delivered to you - three birds might be read as the combination of number three with element of air and consequently - mind, communication, intellect, ideas, decisions
• again this process is very personal and connections you find might exist only for you, still try to research correspondences of the number with astrology, tarot, alchemy, crystals, plants to have a better understanding of energy that the number bears

a little bit more…

Animals

• when you keep meeting particular animal
• or notice that animal behaves in certain way 
• study more about that particular animal as totem and spirit guide
• check animal oracles you feel connected with

Phrases

• graffiti, bill boards, ridiculous clothes sayings and shop names - anything can work
• for sure, books can be your divination muse for ever

Colors 

• that’s amazing how we fail to see that colors can just shout about changes knocking our door, help us to shift our perspective or heal
• notice color choices of people around: cloths, juice straws, hair bands
• repeatedly appearing color
• connect the color with chakra, check its symbolic and esoteric connotations

Scorpio season is coming and we start feeling our roots - dark and powerful. The most entangled with our spirit fears and obsessions, weaknesses and sheer darkness, in all its forms. Singing inside. It seems we don’t care any more about light | love | compassion, spiritual candy floss, we wish one thing - to drink the blood of life and water of death. Every wound, every kiss, every journey, and go, go till the very end when there is nothing left, only complete destruction - to start again. 

Scorpio season makes it obvious, our powers are here but we’re so scared, our way is right in front of us but we’re still asking.

I love immensely Song of Ice of Fire \ Game of Thrones (till it was turned into Hollywood zomby project) *** for me it’s the story of our journeys into the darkness of this world and the way we fell swept into the oblivion life after life, to raise once more and try again. It’s our karmic stories and that’s why Song \ Game of Thrones got so popular. We’re facing the answer on that simple question — why we’re here. 

But we feel also the beauty all of that, touching our core. It makes us shiver, makes us so real that the dirt of earth turns into the sky and actually there is no difference any more. 

Our karma becomes a dark mother, the darkness we were born in, the path we search, it’s an answer and way.

***

I write this series for Scorpio season celebrating our darkness with all the powers \ answers \ light buried inside and transformation possible when we begin opening to that.

I’ll connect characters of Song of Ice and Fire and their stories with soul paths found in astrological natal chart - that’s a journey from the past shown in the position of South Node towards the new explorations and growth reflected in the position of North Node. 

North Node in Aries - South Node in Libra

Arya Stark

Once you were a part of family and the entire universe existed inside Winterfell walls, even you always knew that you were something more. Your dream was never fitting in the pattern of the world weaved around. You wished to escaped and curves of the road made you shivering. Trying to put your dream into the words - you dreamed the entire world where you’d walk your unique path. And you couldn’t wait for that, you were ready to carry your shield while still living in the children room. 

But when it happened and you faced the separation it was horrible, you realized that you were only a child and your sword was a needle, you wished to turn back and be again a part of the family, you hated the lonely road leading into the darkness. But you were chosen for that road and road for you. 

The Death was the first you encountered on that road - this is how the roads work, on the certain point you meet Death there -  and the Death asked you to be her child and as that time you were really just a child, you agreed easily. Your fascination with roads, travels and swords, your fire, your energy and determination, your never relying on other people’s words and opinions made you good daughter of Death. 

You learnt how not to be yourself and enter the houses of people and their markets and squares so they would always consider you were someone familiar to them - a girl selling fish, an acrobat, a beggar, their daughter’s friend - but they never would know you. You tried so many roles that you started losing yourself. And one day you said to Death that you wanted to leave, that it was getting to overwhelming. Death disagreed, for sure and you had to escape, only moonlight witnessed. 

Death followed and you were forced to disguise yourself and became a part of touring theater - that was happy time as if after the centuries of crumsy performing you stepped outside of arena and breathed in the purity of simple being. But Death found you there and you were again pushed to move. 

You’re still somewhere on the road - fighting your fears to be your dark (as you think) self and make the dream you carry in your heart happened, 

struggling with breaking from the comfort and security people’s homes and hearts ready to offer you, 

serving other people’s dreams and being afraid to stand alone, 

carrying the bunch of masks to wear as you’re still not sure what better protects you from Death, 

curled in the darkness as you can’t go further any more and can’t trust yourself any more.

Yet you are and in the end of day after all the wandering and fighting are finished, you stop to rest, and you kiss her and for a moment it seems you’re at home again.

To continue…

part 2

Pluto’s child, you’re at home in the 8th astrological house - it seems you were born to die anew every day, your life is a labyrinth of transformations where you used to lose yourself so often.

In the beginning you were fighting against being drawn into the underworld and that made you suffer hell, that days crows filled the sky and you could hardly reach the end of the day until you decided to open the door leading to the underworld and stepped inside.

You realized how fearful you are and lost, you saw your insecurities, grief, anxiety, jealousy and rage, they were scorpions meant to kill you, but there was a phoenix there sitting in the branches of burnt tree and he said - they’re your family, from the poisonous heart of your father, go, go further.

From that time every day still is in extreme, but you slowly grew in desire for transformation, you began sitting with your anxiety and having morning tea with your fears, you got used to know how powerless you are and how powerful. 

Your wish to control has no limits and even laundry routine can become the reason for new conquest. Your breath, your heart, food you eat and streets you walk - the possibilities to exercise control are myriad. But you realized that you never can be satisfied with that and started letting go. Yet it’s the most difficult thing as it means to be swallowed, to surrender and be opened up. Yet every time you emerge alive and shining, still you wonder how is it possible.

It all seems a mystery to you - to live, to be broken and again whole, to nurture darkness and, when fed, let it go.

You’re a natural medium and psychic and today you’’re coming to own your magical powers and psychic gifts so you can heal others.

You were carried here in the crystal poisonous heart of your father Pluto to be a warrior, a torch revealing and burning world’s darkness, to be a witness of horrors and heavy shadows, writing a story of fear so one day you’ll be able to shout to the stars that you’re coming home, joyful, unbroken, free like a lion roaring in the darkness.

A gem among tarot spreads I lay down these days, it gives the similar feeling as interpreting astrological natal chart - you’re going to uncover huge volumes of information - patterns, life themes, biggest challenges and soul mission, 

it gives a shivering feeling of presence of your \ your querent higher aspect in the time you’re doing the reading, really - it feels like stars and planets are reflecting in the cards, and messages, no matter how difficult and uncomfortable on the surface, come from the level of calm and assuring energy - all is well, girl, this is why you’re here - to make that impossible real, and you’ll do that, just because you’re here means you will.

I like rearranging the cards to the end of reading to create the picture of my querent’s path - I place challenges and limiting patterns of past on one side, deep wishes and all the beauty which seems so unrealistic now on another side - and tools and ways to grow and explore in the middle. It’s nice to see the path!

The positions of Soul spread correspond with 12 astrological houses:

1 - House of Self: personality, ambitions, drives

2 - House of money and possessions: value system, material possessions, financial attitudes

3 - House of communication: the way you communicate and learn, siblings and neighbors

4 - House of home: your parents, your roots, your domestic life and family

5 - House of creativity and sex: creativity, your sexual nature, fun, social life

6 - House of service and health: job, responsibilities, work relationships, health

7 - House of partnership and marriage: work and romantic relationships, how you blend your personality with others

8 - House of death and regeneration: spiritual transformation, inheritance, psychic powers, occult knowledge

9 - House of mental exploration and long-distance travels: spirituality, religion, morals, higher education, long-distance travels

10 - House of career and public standing: public image and career, material success in life

11 - House of friend and hopes and wishes: friendships, hopes, goals and wishes

12 - House of secrets, sorrows and self-undoing: your inner self, dreams, the past, subconscious, karma

Better to pull the cards for this spread in the evening,

and don’t forget to supply yourself with favorite tea - it’s going to be rather long reading.
