Hi There!

Aphrodite's ring

Besides my deep interest and devotion to Hekate, I'm very fortunate to say I've felt the influences of other Gods and deities like Aphrodite Herself.

I remember clear as day, when I was around 16 years old, one saturday after my english class I was returning home on my own, it was around midday and I'd been highly curious about Aphrodite that very week, it's also worth mentioning I'd been studying lots of Greek mythologies (Percy Jackson and so on) at that time so the connection wasn't out of the blue.

The route I walked towards the bus stop have lots of different stores and boutiques in a very long avenue, and under the bright hot sun I was feeling unusually beautiful. I decided to stop by a bijou shop and started looking through the rings, one stood out to me that resembled a bay leaf crown. That specific ring was the only one of its kind on the store, and I have very slender fingers as you can see, however the ring fits like a glove.

I didn't think twice before buying it, the ring felt like it was made for me, like a gift from above. To this day I consider this ring a gift from Aphrodite, the Goddess I was greatly connected at that time, and every time I feel pretty or I feel like some confidence can help me, I always have it on hand and my self esteem go up by the hundreds.

I am always happy and even proud to have the opportunity to feel and receive so many blessings, Hekate has given me more gifts than I can count (not only materially), and this Aphrodite's ring is also one that sits very close to my heart ❤️

I'm so happy to see my blog hasn't been lost due to my absence and asks keep coming in! I think it's good to also let you know how to ask (specifically if you request readings from me)!

• First, if you're a minor please signalize so i can have an idea for how to interpret the cards (if there's no signal I'll consider you/people you ask about are over age)

• For a witch, I'm kinda skeptical on zodiac, I also haven't gotten to the astrological matters of tarot yet, so telling me your sign/moon/asc or not doesn't make any difference

• I also don't understand how emojis could help me know any better, if they're some kind of info I'd rather you write a short description on the matter instead

• Lots of requests are for love readings, it'd help a lot if you could tell me if your love interest is a crush, a friend, a stranger, a boyfriend, a fling, etc, so it gives me an idea of your intention and can make readings more accurate

• Do not put any personal/sensitive information into the asks, don't need to go into detail if you don't want to either, remember to tell only what you judge a stranger can know, your intention is enough

But you can also ignore everything above, the downside is you'll be trusting my intuition to know better and read the spread according to my own ideas.

If you'd like tarot readings focused on astrological signs unfortunately this is not the place yet, but I'm sure there are plenty of awesome tarot readers around tumblr you can ask!

Either way, you are more than welcome to give me feedback after you read your answers. I want to get better at this Art and I know I won't be right every single time, so if you can give me any light, even if it's small, I'd be incredibly grateful.

Just realized my asks were closed, I'm sorry!!!

It's open now, please feel free to send your questions!

Guess who's back??

The time for me to get the traditional Waite-Smith tarot and I LOVE it already, not to mention other two oracles I'm sure will be awesome to make weekly advice readings!

So, I'll be reopening free readings and hopefully be able to open paid more insightful readings, but all in due time.

I took some time off to dedicate to my work, I'm a freelancer digital artist to those who don't know, and now that things are finally working out I feel like it's time to fit tarot back into my life.

My ask box is open, feel free to seek for advice ✨

I'm super sorry about my late absence these previous months, but whoever follows me on my main account and might have been seeing my work, but this one is very special to me and deserves to be in this blog

To those who are not familiar with the Hades game franchise, it's an amazing game based in Greek Mythology and the whole game, history wise, art wise, character wise and soon they'll be releasing their second game with revolves around Melinoe's journey as she's a disciple of Hecate, and as soon as Hekate's official art was released I NEEDED to draw her.

Throughout the process all I could feel was my heart very warm by each character design discovery, it only proves how much respect and hard work people from Supergiant games have depicting figures that are so important for so many people (me included)

I can't wait for the game to be out and for sure this is not the last art I do from/for Her, but here's my personal recommendation, if you're devote to any Greek-pantheon deity (and also like rogue like games) this might be a great experience!

I feel Her every call

When I was still young and oblivious about other religions, the name Hekate stood up in a book among many others, I could never forget Her ever since

In 2019 when I hit rock bottom and nothing could offer me the comfort I so desperately needed, She lighted up my way toward the first steps in the Art

In 2020 she gifted my beloved tool with which I'd start gathering courage to make my first spells

In 2021 I knew She was there when I gave up my vicious job to pursue my dream

And this year I can feel Her again, calling for action, it's time to finally chase my purpose, dive into books and officially start my witchcraft journey.

She gave me strength so I could hold others in a difficult time, She offered me opportunities so I could deepen my intuition, Her torches are guiding me towards Her path so She can handcraft my life to Her plan

It was Her, every time the moon would keep me company in the car during any little travel, it was Her keeping my believes in Magic from childhood until now so strong.

Every time, when I was still a toddler questioning my mom about her god and being reprehended, in every nap I took during masses in the church, the books I'd sneak into religious classes to avoid the bible, the feeling that I'd never fit among my people no matter how hard I tried.

It was the things that I bought and never got to use, all ready to go whenever She'd call me. The black notebook that was gathering dust in my drawer that now I'm adorning to be my Shadow Book; the crystals and shells that came to me one way or another and I never had the courage to throw them away; the stack of books I got to download but only read so far.

Everything leading to this moment of awakening, this adrenaline to gather all the knowledge I can, my creativity tingling to come up with tarot reading structures, spells, prayers and even the will to shout to the world about Her and Her power even knowing they will not accept my decision.

My heart's filled to the brim with her light and our journey is still just beginning. ✨

Sorry for the short absence, it's so funny to think I did find my crossroad this week and some decisions were made, one of them to better measure my priorities, which is mostly earning money to pay the bills

I chose to prioritize my current job rather than price labeling my readings bc I feel I don't have the necessary knowledge yet to deliver readings worthy its prices and I don't want to compromise myself with something I cannot deliever properly. As said before, free readings help me practice, if it's not precise at least it's free

Rn I need to focus on what gets the money incoming, free tarot readings will keep open however they'll take longer to be answered 💜

I wanna draw some cards by the morning, if you want, use my ask box to request for a reading specifying which subject you wanna know about and your name/nickname!

Hi! Can you use the cards to ask this question?

Is there anyway for me to use magic like the irl magicial girls blogs on tumblr? If so, how?

There's an interesting combo.

X of Wands gives you a heads up, you might have everything you need at hand already, you just don't know how to use it, how to organize it, and you end up losing perspective because of what's right in front of you.

That might be the reason for IX of Swords, your blocked vision creates the illusion that you can't do it. But that's all it is: negativity that fuels your fears. Don't lose your sleep or hope over it.

You want to know how to do it? The Hierophant can tell. This card represents both faith and knowledge, which coincidentally are the X elements for magick. I can tell you personally too, no one from my family knows how to read cards, I wasn't born knowing either, yet here we are. It was and is through knowledge, faith and lots, lots of practice.

Don't be ashamed to ask others, there will be plenty of people out there eager to help you find your path, and plenty of paths for you to choose. Remember Magick doesn't require the fanciest of tools, nor the prettiest of blogs, your intention is all that matters.

I wish you nothing but good luck on your search, may the right path find you soon ✨

Hi, hope you're fine. My name's Nicole and i would like to ask for a reading about my love life the rest of this year

Thanks in advance 😊

Good omens ahead!

For November, III of Pentacles is, if you're looking for someone, the signal that a new relationship is on the horizon.

For December, the Ace of Pentacles shows the opportunity for a great relationship, along with the previous card, it all points this new opportunity will be fruitful. This Ace points to fortune, the energies are on your side!

Rooting for your success, good luck! ✨
