With the FNO, do you think we can ask about spirit animals or animals that the fae connect to us with?

Absolutely!

2019 is about doing everything you find scary so that the universe can stop giving you repetitive lessons and elevate you to another level. Rebirth is in the air.

And I say it like that because this, honestly and truly, is a surprise to me. 

I really believed that I would never in any capacity do readings of any form again. And especially I wouldn’t make them part of my career. 

Life has this weird spiraling pattern and I’m just grateful that I’ve somehow come around to doing something I’ve always wanted to do.

So hey, it’d be my pleasure to use my experience as a reader to translate your aura into a one-of-a-kind portrait. These come with explanations of the colors and symbols. You can find the listing via the link above, or in my shop at www.ravenmagill.com

Crystals for Self Love

I’ve been sick as all get out for the past week, so I’m going to keep this short and sweet - whereas I had hoped to make a much larger post. C’est la vie.

If you want self-love energy, soothing vibes, I personally would go for:

  • rose quartz 
  • amethyst
  • selenite
  • blue calcite

Disclaimer: Crystals are as subjective to individual preference/reception as food! Yeah, mac ‘n cheese is a pretty well-beloved comfort food, just as rose quartz hits the “self-love” energy for many, but if you hate mac ‘n cheese...don’t eat it. Eat pizza. Or whatever. You get the idea.

Anyway, I'd sit and tune into those while actually practicing some self-love, like journaling, pulling some cards, drinking tea, effing taking 5 minutes to breathe. 

Adjust the crystals and activities to your preferences! 

But when we’re talking self-love, there’s self-love energy (covered above) and then there’re self-love actions (covered below). 

Self love actions (which I would classify as working on your shadow stuff, practicing forgiveness...mainly of self, dealing with your programming, patterns, health, etc etc..) I think require for the most part a whole different category of crystals. Those would be ones that support whatever action you're hoping to take. For me, snow-flake obsidian, ammonite, marcasite...these stones have helped to inspire self-love action for me. If that's what you're after, and not a blanket of sweet self-love energy, then go with what you're drawn to, or pick an area/action and do some research or get back to me.

Hello! You have a lovely blog 💕 I don't know if you are doing requests at the money, but could you make a tarot spread for why someone did something? I was recently sexually assaulted by a good friend (who obviously is no longer that) and I need aid in getting answers. Even if tarot readings can't do this, I just want something. I'm so sad and can't understand why he did it. Anyways, thank you! Have a lovely night💕

Hey my dear. I know this ask is...at least a year old? I am so sorry it has taken me so so so so long to get to this. Hopefully you’re still around on tumblr and you see this, but if not, I hope it might help someone else. I will share a tarot spread I think might help, but I have to stress that you can 99% understand why he did it without the cards. 

There’s a lot of information out there and analysis on why people do these terrible things. Hurt people...hurt people. Happy, well-adjusted individuals don’t feel a need to take advantage of others and hurt them emotionally or physically. THIS IS NOT AN EXCUSE. There is no excuse for assault. But if you’re looking for understanding, this is a good place to start. Sometimes it’s about power (getting it), or self-worth (lacking it), or it could be about a fundamental misunderstanding of how to respect another person’s autonomy and right to exist.

Any followers out there with good reading material/resources please chime in? 

Anon, I’m so sorry you experienced this. I know that the cards can be therapeutic, but please remember to seek the less esoteric resources and guidance out there in combination with whatever spiritual tools you use. I think you’ll find healing and understanding is much easier that way.

As for the cards: Mirror Spread.

Two cards. One on the left, and one on the right. Or, if it resonates more, the first one on top, the second one upside down right below it. Like a reflection.

1) This card represents the outward appearance.

2) This card represents the inner truth.

If you were to ask: Why did this person do this? You’d get a look at what SEEMED to be the reason, and then the actual reason. I like this spread for situations when you’re very emotionally invested and might find it difficult to separate what you want or expect to hear from what you need to hear.
