Any Witches Here? Part 14.

[speakout]

Or Wiccans. or Pagans? Or anyone who is interested in a magical path or feels some magical stirrings.

A place for support, learning, swapping ideas and magical inspiration.

Thank you speakout that is absolutely spot on- literally and figuratively! Your interpretation is exactly the encouragement I needed today. I can see why your cards were twitching- your intuition is very powerful

Aerwyna

Thank you.

A card for me if you you still have time!!

And once again a call to my sisters for some love and nurturing. This time for my son who it would seem has caught Covid
It means we have lost the holiday we had planned for over next weekend. He's not got off the sofa for two days the poor mite, he's just utterly wiped out.

queenrollo

I am sorry to hear that- such a time of worry and concern for you. I hope he is feeling better soon. My DD had Covid 6 weeks ago it was unpleasant- but young people can usually fight the virus well. I hope he is feeling better soon.
I will draw a card for you.

queenrollo

I have pulled The Empress for you. A card of nurturing, divine feminine spirit- your force personified - as a powerful mother and healing energy- exactly the energy that you are giving to your son- a positive healing spirit.
A reminder that you are divine, your touch and power is sacred.

Oh queenrollo I’m sorry to hear that. You’ve had such a lot to deal with recently, my heart goes out to you. Sending healing energy to your son and love to you

Oh Queenrollo I'm so sorry, you do seem to be going through a difficult time at the moment. I've lit and a candle for you and sending you positive vibes

Aerwyna* I think I remember the sister you mentioned. If I recall she was recovering from an illness and bed bound?

Blurpblorp lovely to hear from you. It's so satisfying to grow plants from seed isn't it? I'm really proud of how my tomato plants are doing. I need to find a way of dealing with slugs though, as my poor marigolds have all been eaten!

Speakout I'm probably too late, but I would love a card if you feel inclined.

Funny, I've been thinking about tarot today. I was talking about my cards with a friend this afternoon, and thinking it's been a while since I've done any readings. Work seems to have consumed me just lately, I need to find a way to redress the balance.

Thank you speakout, that is the lift I needed after a weird couple of weeks. Can also see why your cards were twitching!

I went out paddling on my own this evening so am sending you all some sunset water magic 💙

Blurp welcome back, I don't think we've met before but it's lovely to see you!

Oh queen you've had a time of it lately! Healing energy coming your way for your son and for you too - I'm sorry about your holiday.

have you tried a beer trap VioletCharlotte

QueenRollo i hope that your son recovers quickly.

Hi everyone
I am really struggling to tap into/ listen to my intuition and was wondering whether I can get some tips.
I am often external referenced and I would love to go back to me and listen. I'd appreciate any help

@speakout please could I have a card?

I feel at peace, it's been a long time since I've felt like this. I took mini toto for a swim in the sea where my grandparents used to take me. I felt comforted by the waves, knowing that my late grandparents had enjoyed this with their children. It's almost like a genetic memory being passed on.

I sense of calm and uplifting in this thread at the moment. Let's enjoy it whilst it lasts.

I wrote a long post and just before submitting, my pc decided to reboot itself, leaving me no time to compose another.

The brief version is what a wonderful day's posts, such energy from the fae and water and amazing card draws.
Queen I hope littlie is soon back to normal.

piddocktrumperiness Hi and welcome, grab a cushion and some tea.
I'd say have a look at Locus of Control to see if that helps you understand yourself a little more.
Try practising Yoga or QiGong or Reiki or any disciplined art to get yourself grounded and centred, it will help with your self-confidence to rely on your own judgement.

I have woken to a deep pink sky this morning and a great sense of calm.
piddocktrumperines I would echo what Blanktimes advises, the prevailing social philosophy influenced by the christian church has winkled our personal power and belief out of ourselves and advised us to park it with some overlord of dubious moral character.
Reclaiming and nurturing our power within will lead to all kinds of transformations.
I will have time later today to do some more Tarot pulls, maybe after 6pm or so, so will catch up with latest requests. My DD came over yesterday evening and is staying the night. She has had a tough few days in hospital, many children with Covid, including nursing a 3 day old baby who has caught the virus from her mother during birth.
So I am taking time to nurture my DD, made one of her favourite meals last night, and she has asked if I will make french onion soup for lunch today, I am up early to start prepping , nip to Tesco to buy gruyère and onions.
Wishing all my friends a light bright day.

Good morning everyone.

@queenrollo sorry to hear this, what a worry. How is your son today? Sending lots of healing vibes x

@VioletCharlotte hello again, the tomatoes must be loving this sunny spell. No tips for slugs I'm afraid... though imagine the sun has kept them at bay for a few days?

@hilariousnamehere hello! And wow what a pic. Do you live near water? Or are you on holiday somewhere? Hope it was magical... something so zen about canoeing/kayaking... the stillness.

@piddocktrumperiness there are some lovely guided chakra meditations on YouTube that I always find helpful to put my focus inwards and become more aware of myself, my thoughts, feelings, wishes. Some are only 10 minute ones. I can't now find the ones I've done, but pretty easy to find in the search. Good luck, it's vital work x

@TotoAnnihiliation what a lovely thing, passing on the genetic memories. Something so regenerative about following in the footsteps of those who came before you. Such lovely talk on here of oceans, rivers and water...

My thought for today is something I read in the a newspaper yesterday; a chef saying that he wishes he could get exicted about summer salads but that he is a frustrated winter cook at heart (dumplings, stews, roast dinners). It is so me!! Although on that, I might make a big batch of roasted peppers which someone on here many moons ago said they did all the time... it made the whole house smell divine

Thank you for all the well wishes!

Speakout yes a very fitting card draw for me! It's definitely the energy I am channelling at the moment.

BlurpBlorp thanks for asking - he's done that thing that children do. Yesterday he was completely inert on the sofa.....today he is bouncing off the walls and you would never know he had been ill.

We're still in limbo here though because 2 days later we still don't have our PCR result. I guess this is a bad sign as it probably means the lab is busy. But I need to cancel the cattery, and we can't claim a refund on our holiday without the result!
On the outside chance he hasn't got Covid, we will still be able to go away.
I am finding the uncertainty very draining.

BlurpBlorp I'm very lucky to live at the top of a village on a river, and there's a reservoir just round the corner from my studio building which is where last night's water joy came from. And also several beaches nearby - my mermaid heart is happy in this little part of the world

Frustrated winter cook made me smile, that's also me - casseroles and stews and things, I'm always at a bit of a loss for what to make in summer!

Queen delighted your little one is bouncing around, that must be a relief. Hope your result comes soon and 🤞 for it being negative!

Speakout lots of love to your DD, and so glad you're able to nurture her and be there for her to lean on.

Toto so glad you're feeling at peace and I love how you describe passing on a memory.

Welcome piddock - and seconding (thirding? Fifthing?!) meditation, plus perhaps some freewriting or journalling - I find writing always helps me to connect with my centre, sometimes more easily than other methods.

@VioletCharlotte my tip for keeping slugs away, is to put a ring of copper coins - 1p,2p around whatever it is you want to keep them away from. Slugs don't like copper.

Thank you so much! Yes I will try those suggestions :)

VioletCharlotte

I have drawn The Fool for you. A card of new beginnings, or a new path, change of direction maybe? Listen to your heart- what do you really want? Is it time to take a leap of faith?

TotoAnnihiliation

I have pulled the Nine of Pentacles for you. I see you in this card- too, I smiled when it landed, hoping you are feeling this energy on your well deserved break.
Indulge and pamper as much as you can no guilt is allowed!

@speakout that card is so perfect right now. I love how there is a little black cat on it. Although my little black familiar is back at home, I think of him often. It's amazing how you have drawn the right card for me, so intuitive!

Well we're Covid grounded! A positive result for the boy. He's flagged a bit this afternoon and said he wants an early night. There will be easy days all round I think for the time being.
I'm administering zinc lozenges to me and DH (have been since Saturday morning) and I have a few herbal remedies on hand too. Hoping to stave off catching it ourselves.

queenrollo

Sorry to hear that. I hope your DS doesn't get too sick and you and OH stay well.

Speakout thank you! That really resonates with me right now! I'm very much looking forward to Fridays full moon as a time for releasing a lot of the stuff I've been dragging around this year and starting afresh! The energy of the Fool is just what I need :)

Queenrollo sorry to hear about little one. I hope he makes a swift recovery and you and your partner stay well.

Hills funnily enough, someone else mentioned beer traps to me. I'm not sure how I feel about all those slugs swimming around in beer though. It makes me feel a little squeamish! I know it's meant to be effective though.

Toto thank you, I've not heard of that tip, I will give it a try!
