King of Swords — from the Magical Hours Tarot

This card landed in my lap as I’ve been reshaping my online altar. I thought rigid ritual would help me stay disciplined, but it actually dulled my inspiration. So now, I’m letting this space breathe—turning it into a dropbox for thoughts, sparks, and raw ramblings. My craft isn’t polished perfection. It’s headwitchery, messy and alive.

The King of Swords reminds me that wisdom isn’t rigid—it’s curious, vulnerable, and open to being challenged. In this deck, he’s the deer: antlers stretching toward spirit, crows carrying messages, constellations shining with mystery. He reminds me that even with all the knowledge we gather, what matters is how we feel it, integrate it, and let it shift us.

This Virgo New Moon whispers: don’t obsess over polish. The truth isn’t perfect—it’s raw. Write it down, file it away, let it make sense when the time is right. Until then, keep listening, keep trusting. 🌙

This week, The Veil brought me a sense of closure. Grieving my dog has left an ache, and I’ve been filling that space with extra ritual—speaking with spirits, praying, reaching across the veil. This card felt like a gentle hug from the other side, a reminder that I am heard. Tonight, I’ll make a comforting soup, nestle in, and honor the warmth of that validation. May your evening bring you the same comfort, closure, and quiet magic. Vale. 🕯️

🔮Tarot Tuesday🔮
🪞 Mirror Moment

The 8 of Wands always reminds me to listen and then act. When I’m deep in the dumps, it can feel impossible to do even the smallest things — like eat, or get up, or care for myself. Depression tells me “no,” but this card teaches me to say yes to the little sparks.

Yes to a bowl of cereal at 4pm, because at least I’m eating.
Yes to the nudge to pull a card, light a candle, or bake some muffins — even when I don’t want to, because I know future-me will enjoy the magic of it.

The truth is, the “yes” doesn’t have to be big. It can be as simple as getting out of bed for a glass of water. And when you do, that’s a victory. That’s listening to your body and honoring its needs.

So if you’re struggling right now, remember this: every small step forward is still movement. And I am proud of you for it.

🕯️Lanterns Light 🕯️
🕯️Inner Flame
These past three years have tested me in ways I never thought possible. Losing my mother, a marriage, and now my companion animal — grief has stretched me wider than I imagined. With Saturn retrograding back into Pisces and eclipse season beginning in the same waters, I find myself bracing for impact. It almost feels impossible to think about releasing more.

But release doesn’t always have to be heavy. Sometimes it’s about softening, loosening the grip, letting breath move where fear has been lodged.

This eclipse, I will release the guilt I carry around feeling moments of happiness inside my grief.
I will release the shame of not having it all together.
I will release rigidity around vulnerability, and instead make space for myself to feel — even when it isn’t pretty.
I will release fear of what comes next.
I will release the fear of asking for help, and the fear of not being okay. Because the truth is: not being okay is okay.

And while I release, I also celebrate. I celebrate new love. I celebrate friendships that have held me steady through time. I celebrate family who remind me of my strength. I celebrate a spiritual practice that has allowed me to rise from the ashes again and again, like a fu***ng phoenix!

May this eclipse season guide you to release what no longer serves, and may your path be cut with the blade of your own intuition and enlightenment. 🌑🔥

🐺Inner Howl
With the Queen of Cups showing up to congratulate us this week (instead of pushing us to deep dive), I couldn’t help but peek at the skies. Saturn just retrograded back into Pisces (my fellow Saturn-in-Pisces babes — hello, lessons!) and on the 7th we’ve got a Pisces Full Moon Lunar Eclipse. Big, destined energy, tailored uniquely to each of us.
At a collective level, this eclipse asks us to release the grip of control — to stop over-perfecting and over-excavating every little detail. Not every transformation has to be pried open. Sometimes it’s about loosening, about trusting the tides. Because yes — leaving behind the familiar can feel scary. A box can feel safe to a stray dog, and a house overwhelming… but the house holds care, warmth, and stability. Pisces whispers: dream anyway. You are worthy of those dreams, even if you’re not there yet.
So, I worked with this spread to reflect on Saturn’s retrograde return + eclipse waters:
1. What is this retrograde return teaching me?
🌟 6 of Wands
To believe in myself and my worth. To honor my magic, my creativity, my passions — enough to let them carry me somewhere. To allow myself to be seen, to be recognized. Fearlessly.
2. Something to carry forward
💧 Page of Cups Rx
To guard my energy with care. To give my own intuition and voice the same respect I give others. Not every shiny new thing deserves my “yes.” I can pause, reevaluate, and hold my standards. Emotional discernment is key — to protect the artist, the dreamer, and the child within me.
3. Something to leave behind
🔥 Knight of Wands Rx
The urge to leap recklessly into every spark. True passion, true joy, true connection will still be there after I’ve slowed down, checked in, and said a wholehearted yes. Saturn reminds me: fire sustains better when tended, not torched.
Lantern’s Shadow (what to look out for)
👑 King of Wands
When I shine, others may try to control, consume, or dim my light. Old habits might resurface. The test is not to get swayed by shiny objects or tangled in power dynamics. On the flip side, don’t get too inflated — someone else’s light doesn’t diminish mine. We can stand bright together.

🔮Tarot Tuesday 🔮
🪞 Mirror Moment
For me, this energy always loops back to my mom. After she passed, the Queen of Cups began showing up as her card—a reflection of her love for the ocean, her intuitive bond with animals, and her boundless ability to nurture everyone around her.

The Queen reminds me that love is my compass. That how people treat me says more about them than it does about me. My task is to stay kind, but with boundaries—kindness is my nature, not my weakness.

She’s also my reminder to mother myself:
✨ To pat myself on the back.
✨ To buy the sticker book or enjoy the treat.
✨ To hug myself when it’s hard.
✨ To tend to my wounds and walk myself through healing.

Right-side up, she’s a pat on my own back for staying soft in a hard world—a green light to give myself what I need, with no guilt attached. 💙

🕯️Lanterns Light
🔥Inner Flame
(Inner Flame = my personal reflection on the guidance or lesson from the Lantern’s Light card—how I’m integrating it into my life and moving forward, sharing it here in case it sparks insight for you, too.)

These cards reminded me how important it is to carve out time just for myself—to breathe, pause, and reset. No thoughts of what’s next, no “what might crumble” stress—just space to be.
Some days it’s 3 mindful breaths. Some days 3–15 minutes for a meditation or card pull. On lucky days, an hour of drumming. Whatever the time, it’s sacred.
A tool I love using is the Insight Timer app—timers, background sounds, bells to mark start and finish—it helps give me that space to step aside and release the weight of the day.
I also practice my medicinal smoking ritual, I call Breath of Earth 🌿💨. Each inhale grounds me, each exhale releases tension, and I reconnect with my inner flame. It’s not about escape—it’s about rooting, slowing down, and refueling.
Even a few breaths or one intentional Breath of Earth can reset your energy, spark your flame, and keep you centered. Make time for yourself daily to reclaim your peace—it matters. ✨

🐺 Inner Howl
This is my personal reflection on the Howls from the Hedge spread—how the cards landed for me, what they stirred, and how I’m working with their energy in my life. A glimpse into my process, and maybe a mirror for yours.

✨ My Pull (from The Living Altar Oracle)

I immediately thought of the card “Divination” from the “Magick and Mediums” Oracle. Included in artwork!

Left (Feel): 3rd Quarter Moon → Grieving and gratitude can co-exist. I’m still sitting in the threshold of letting go of my dog, Trigg. I’m reliving the joy while learning to release, holding both.

Right (Think): New Moon → My life feels like it’s entering a rebirth. After loss upon loss, space is opening for new beginnings. Who do I want to be in this new cycle? Where do I want to root myself?

Front (Do): Winter → Rest. Get cozy. Write. Allow stillness and silence without fearing it’s empty. Let community and love remind me of my light.

Behind (Inspire): Solitude + Childhood → Healing the part of me that never felt safe being alone. Learning that solitude isn’t abandonment—it can be safety, curiosity, imagination. This is how I reconnect with my inner child.

🐺 This spread reminded me that taking time to pause, feel, and reflect isn’t selfish. It’s sacred.

🔮TAROT TUESDAY🔮

🪞 Mirror Moment
(Mirror Moment = my personal reflection on how I’m working with the card in my own life—sharing it here in case it resonates for you, too.)

This week, I pulled from my Wild Wolf Tarot as an ode to my late pup—RIP Trigg 🖤.
I paired the 4 of Watchers RX with two companions: the Lantern’s Shadow— Ace of Caretakers (cups) RX beneath the deck, and a guiding card from the top— Pack of Leaders (Knight of Wands) RX.

The message was clear: this isn’t about rushing out of rest. It’s about actually allowing rest. You can’t fear being selfish when tending to your own mind. You can’t chase dreams or be a steady support for others if you’re disconnected from yourself.
Sometimes you have to disengage—step away from the to-do lists, the expectations, the constant noise. You’re not really resting if your mind is still running. True pause clears the fog, reconnects you with your fire, and brings you back to decisions with focus, direction, and energy.

✨ Take your time. It isn’t wasted—it’s fuel.

🕯️Lantern Light 🕯️

Walking with the King of Pentacles this week was deeply personal for me. He has always come as a guide of sorts for me! As many of you know, I had to say goodbye to my dog — one of the hardest choices I’ve ever had to make. The King’s steady presence reminded me that true wisdom isn’t about clinging or grasping, but about standing firmly in love, even when the ground shakes.

The cards Intelligence (rx) and Persuasion reflected back to me that clarity: I could not be swayed by fear or the selfish urge to hold on. I had to trust what I knew was right, even if it broke me open. That’s what this lantern’s flame holds tonight — the reminder that our own grounded knowing is enough, and that sometimes our greatest act of love is letting go.

So may this exhale be for you, too: a release into trust. A breath that says, I know what’s right for me, and I can walk it with dignity and love.

🌕 Howls from the Hedge 🌱

This week, under the lantern’s glow, we plant ourselves like a great tree in the hedge. The King of Pentacles stands tall, steady and wise, while the Tower Rx rumbles beneath our roots, reminding us that even the strongest oak must learn to bend in the storm.

This spread is a lantern-lit path inward:
✨ Roots — where you stand firm in your values.
✨ Trunk — how you trust yourself and grow from within.
✨ Branches — the ways you can stretch and flourish without losing who you are.

✨ Lantern’s Light ✨
The last flame on the altar burns low, and in its light, we gather what we’ve learned. May this be your exhale, your sealing of the work, your gentle lantern’s glow into the weekend.
