Is it possible to not like your 'soulmate'? I did a pick a card reading on yt and the description of my soulmate just left me disappointed. I really don't like the person described. I think I picked the deck well and it was a good channel (stargirl)
yes. maybe it’s too early, or you currently match better with an alternative soulmate. several possibilities in your soul family exist. we’re just coming from a more select focus and sometimes reject a quality of ourselves/others so there’s a blockage first. there also has to be enough separation first for there to be enough driving force.
the tarot can send you the opposite of what you would like so you realize what you really desire. sometimes, that happens because you’re still too focused on ‘not want XYZ’ instead of ‘i want XYZ’. this is not the tarot being cruel, all it does is offer a reflection. your soulmate is a mirror of you you can learn from, anyway.
also, and that’s a big one: some readings pick up what kind of beneficial archetype frequency is meant for you. it’s not an existing person but a signal post for what you need in your life. maybe even something you have to exude yourself. it’s a surpressed quality, hence your initial dislike. it’s also going to sound more exaggerated so you eventually get the hint.
you’ll find this archetype littered all over the fictional contents you like and it’s more than glaring once you’re aware of it. meanwhile, there will be not a single trace of that person in your physical life. which usually is the case when we’re talking soulmates, they’ll be around or have showed up in one way or another.
it’s more like that reading gives you a spirit guide, identity teacher, or personal guardian. you’ll be disappointed as you asked for someone to love but sometimes the tarot will rather send you a deity (= concept) to protect you instead because it’s necessary.
and you need to embody that first before you can get together with your soulmate. tarot knows that soulmates are aspects of you, so it pushes the current archetype of your soul family right into your face. so you can get into that state and thus attract a kindred spirit.
This is something that I very recently came to realize: that there are no wrong or right choices and that the universe just wants you to make a decision so that it can provide opportunities/doors. And that if you come to realize this, you will no longer be paralyzed by decisions - for fear of making the wrong one. So I thought this might help, and I had mentioned it in the new pick a card post. :)
1 - new beginnings, potential, opportunity (the fool - the magician)
2 - balance, duality, choices (the high priestess - justice - judgement)
3 - growth, relationships, inital success (the empress - the hanged man - the world)
4 - structure, foundations, stability, planning (the emperor - death)
5 - conflict, loss, change, rebuilding (the hierophant - temperance)
6 - problem-solving, compassion, harmony (the lovers - the devil)
7 - faith, wisdom, reflection, understanding ( the chariot - the tower)
8 - movement, change, attainment (strength - the star)
9 - fruition, completion, fulfillment (the hermit - the moon)
10 - completion, end of a cycle, transformation (the wheel of fortune - the sun)
I don’t really know what people generally call this method of sigil making, so I’m just calling it “Letter Shaping” because you’re using the basic shapes from certain letters. This is the most common form of sigil making, and it allows the most creative influence. As you see above the sigils are for nearly the same thing, yet the sigils came out completely different. Not because the purpose was different, but because I approached them both a different creative way, and that’s what I like so much about this method. There’s a lot of freedom and personalization involved.
(UPDATE: Here’s a link to a guide on how to deconstruct letters down to basic shapes)

Have you ever wandered if there is any link between these two practices? Connected by elements and planets, tarot cards have zodiac signs assigned to them. The sign associated with your card can show you who you will be dealing with or the energy behind your situation.
I personally don't think learning the astrological aspects of tarot is a must, but it can be helpful.

IS IT INTUITION OR OVERTHINKING?
I personally still struggle with this and I know a lot of people do here are some signs. Do note intution can lead to overthinking if you’re denying it.
INTUITION:
More of a relaxed feeling, you don’t feel anxious your mind is at rest. It just comes to you. You just know. You’re not panicking you’re mind is not racing random thoughts.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
It does not change, you will keep getting the same message.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
You see angel numbers or things of meaning to your situation.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
It doesn’t always have to be the most logical answer, but sometimes it is.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
You feel it you just know it there is no “what if” you just know.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
It comes to you naturally usually when you’re doing something like a hobby and not doing something that feeds overthinking. (most of the time)
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
It all makes sense, you connect the dots.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
It comes through meditation etc.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
You probably don’t know what to do with your intution at first, while overthinking you tend to be more impulsive and restless.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
OVERTHINKING:
You got a different message last time, your mind is constantly thinking of different ideas and when one doesn’t fit your internal frameworks you switch to a new one more fitting.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
Constantly ask the same question using spiritual resources. Such as tarot.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
Your mind feels anxious you feel as you can not focus, your body usually isn’t well. May get a pit in the stomach. Intution can sometimes have a hurt in the stomach I will say though.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
You don’t think of anything else but that, it’s like a trigger.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
You constantly focus on what you’re thinking about. Example: Stalking your bfs / gfs social media.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
It does not make sense & you question everything more than just your situation.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
Insecurity, you do not like yourself and this can lead to overthinking a bunch. It’s not intuition.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
It usually makes you feel less of worth
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
Constantly ask for advice.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
Overall, being more secure in yourself leads to less overthinking. Most of us struggle with things like this.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*

Why would romantic cards come out when asking about a romantic connection between 2 ppl that are not romantically involved or have any relations or constant contact with each other? Is there really something there or is the universe or your own mind just showing you what you asked for bcz there is no real answer to the questions asked? (i asked someone else this same question bcz I like hear different opinions 😊) hope u get what I mean haha.
Hello! I do get it! (PS: read the bold part for a short answer)
Everyone has their own opinion, but personally, I don’t believe cards can tell about a soulmate, especially romantic, connection. I believe that it’s something only experience and actually being with the person can tell.
Yesterday I had a meeting with my guides and we talked a lot, and they told me the answer to this question: Tarot, or any other type of divination, tells you only about things you already know. If you read for someone you know, it’s obvious you know about it. If you read it for someone else, it’s not divination reading. It’s you reading, and it depends on your crown/third eye chakras on how you receive information from universe. Some people, believe tarot is just shuffling and looking up it’s meaning - which is wrong. But even in the meaning the cards mean more than one thing, for example, the Lovers card. It doesn’t just mean romantic connection, but also ‘’having to make a decision/choice’’. I personally see the card as ‘’creation’’ as well. Why? My eyes saw Adam and Eve on the card and instantly thought of ‘’creation/being creative’’. Reading with intuition will always be ‘’more correct’’ than just knowing it’s meaning.
For example, I once read for my cousin a lot of things correctly he never told me, because he wanted that. Same with people who commission me. Now, before any of you come to me - Kpop/Celebrity readings never really are ‘correct’. No matter who does it and how and how developed they are, as you all might know, universe doesn’t just give that information.
Returning to your question, same goes for anything ‘’you are not meant to know (yet)’’. Sometimes, it’s just not time yet to know yet. Being too attached to a person and asking multiple times about the connection even if you’re not meant to know yet, will end up just giving you a card you hoped for most ‘’so you’ll calm down and stop’’. It’s pretty complicated and kind of a sad story, but I wouldn’t rely on divination to know whether or not a person is connected to you.
Depending on the person and how well they deal with their emotions and their past, traumas and.. everything kind of, depending on all that the reading depends. Not everyone is open to the truth. Not everyone knows that just their emotions are not the ultimate truth. Our mind and heart often influence our readings by logic and emotions. But to read you need pure intuition with being open to receive the truth (though, for that you need to be emotionally stable and strong). It’s okay not being ready for that, but I’d focus on personal growth instead!
This has become quite long phphph, but basically,
No reading, no divination, your emotions and mind and ‘’gut feeling’’ or what you mistake for intuition will ever be able to predict your connection to someone. Only you can, and only meeting the person and connecting with them can trigger your knowledge and emotions. Otherwise it’s just you liking their image basically.
Now, I hope I don’t sound too strict with this hhhh, but many mistake ‘’intuition’’ for ‘’I feel like that is right’’. While it’s correct in context, when i was training mine through games, I noticed that you have to ‘’catch’’ it. It is there for like.. a millisecond. At most, a second. Not longer, sadly- After that second, your emotions and mind step in and start to ‘’function’’. So I hope you won’t misunderstand intuition for feelings. ^^ I hope this was helpful!
Hi! I don't know if you'll have an answer to this but I have two questions I just can't figure out on my own and I wanted to see if you could help.
First question, what is the difference between your aura and your energy? I've seen some bloggers say "x's person energy is this color" and I also know auras have color, but I can't see those so I was wondering if they're two terms used for the same thing, or if there's a difference (and if so, what that difference would be).
And my second question, more like an issue is this: I feel like my guides don't want me to know something? Either that or they're avoiding me or I just suck at talking to them. I know they're here with mez they confirm their existence constantly, but for some reason, when I ask them this specific question I have, they just ignore me? I'll ask for confirmation about this thing like "if yes, send me this, if it's a no, send this instead" because I thought that way they'd give me an answer, right? But no, whenever I ask about this specific issue pertaining my personal life, it just seems like I'm speaking to the air because I don't get confirmation on either way. Is this normal? Do you know if there's a reason this is happening?
I understand if you don't have any advice (especially about that last one) but you seem fairly knowledgeable in the topic and like you're in good terms with your guides so I thought it was worth a try. Thanks for reading!
Hello! I’ll see what I can do!
If I had it describe how I personally see it, it’s like the energy is the body and the aura the clothes. So I don’t know whether people confuse the 2 being the same thing, but a person mostly is seen as what their aura is like. It’s like.. you know how you behave one way with strangers and another with friends? People who are close to you know how you really are, they know your energy and what you are like, even if your aura/the way you behave is different. Your energy is the true you, something not all people are able to see. But I guess people mean ‘’general energy’’. Auras change. Which is why the energy of my blog, the energy I put in it, changed as well (for the people who complimented me for it, thank you! but i think you did notice it’s different than from a month ago :D). So shortly, we all have different layers of auras but the one we see most is the one you feel from another person. You feel what they might be like. But the Aura depends on the person’s thoughts, actions and beliefs, so they might have a completely different energy underneath. It’s like painting with color A and overpainting it with color B, color A is still there, but you don’t really see it because of color B. (Hope that wasn’t too confusing).
I had the same problem recently! It just means that they gave you everything you needed as guidance and wait for you to act on it. Not long ago I actually was pretty frustrated because like, I have this irl problem and kept asking my guides for like, 7-8 months on what I should do. But nothing, no matter how much I prayed or talked or meditated nothing helped. I then asked a friend of mine to give me some cards and they said that I have everything I need. I just need to find the courage to do things myself and not be so dependant on them. Slowly I eventually got out of that and get guidance after taking that action, leap of faith, but it’s not because you’re bad at talking to them. Your guides ALWAYS hear you. Their YOUR guides, after all. They are meant to support and guide you, their purpose is that! So they find ways to give you guidance in a way you can notice. You just have to be open for that. Or, if it’s something specific you ask about, maybe you aren’t meant to know yet. Like, thoughts can influence our life very much, in a whole new direction. Knowing the answer might take you to a path you aren’t meant to go (yet). Maybe you don’t have to know or ask for confirmation - maybe you have the answers inside you. Your soul knows what it wants, and it’s tricky to know about it since our mind and heart get in the way, but trust your soul. Trust yourself. Trust that you are powerful and that you have everything you need right now. Everything right now is exactly as it’s supposed to be because it was set up like this by universe. Trust in that. And don’t be discouraged. Listening to yourself doesn’t mean you can’t ask your guides. You can, just sometimes, especially when we can’t stand up for ourselves, we get lessons like these to prove that we are powerful and that we can stand up for ourselves!
This isn't kpop related but I feel a pull to post this by my guides.
This is a list I put together of signs you met one of your soulmate/twinflame in your dreams. I've collected this information by hearing and experiencing these connections myself.
Not everything on this list will be the same for everyone.
Everyone's experiences are different so take this information with a pinch of salt please
Deja Vu
A sense of familiarity
A deep knowing (you feel assured on a soul level)
Or you just know its your soulmate straight up
You dream about them constantly
With my experience, I dreampt of them every night for about a week or so.
BE ABSOLUTELY CAREFUL WITH THIS ONE
For example some may have dreams about their favorite artist/idol and think it means that their soulmates.
Projecting your feelings is very different than a real dream connection. BE CAREFUL
When I first drempt of my soulmate I did not have any connection towards them.
No feelings or ideas about them until later on. (Does this make any sense?)
You Astral project to each other.
For me I could feel, smell, and hear things I couldn't do in my regular dreams
When you Astral project you can sometimes feel very tired when you wake up
Most people can not see the face of their soulmate while dreaming
Very very very few do (if you do your so luckyy)
The dream feels realistic
Not a crazy dream with many things going on
You go into a transformational phase
Most of the time it is dealing with your shadow self
The connection can be painful
You both are going through an awakening which is a major deal that's why it can be painful.
THESE CONNECTIONS ARE NOT ALL ROSES
I've gone through the most painful feelings when it comes to my connection
I've spent many nights crying
All I'm trying to say is everything isn't going to be wonderful and how you expect it to go
Some can contact telepathically
It's hard to tell with this becuase its a soft voice in your head you can mistake as thoughts.
But the voice(soulmate/twinflame) shows up out of nowhere
Telepathic connection is hard to fully understand
Like with many spiritual things you just know and can't explain it fully.
This one is also very important to make sure your not projecting your feelings
You can feel their presents around you sometimes
If they are thinking of you, you can feel their presence and/or if they Astral project to you too
Your connection will only happen when both of you are ready
The universe will not give you things you are not ready for
Self love
You need to know your self to a certain degree to be able to maybe have this connection
The universe will only aline you with things of your same vibration.
As I stated previously, it will not provide you information or gifts you are not ready for
I had to work on myself and self love for a long time before my connection
Maturity is a major sign too
You have to be mature enough to know the difference between real and fake.
Creating a story and using it for the benefit for yourself is not mature
This is a serious gift to be able to experience this connection
By projecting what you want, can mess up the real connection for others
So please do not take these things lightly like it is a fun mind game to play.
I don't want seem or sound scary but these connections are divinely gifted for us, so please respect others connections :)
This was a blast writing! If you have any questions let me know!
Also If there is anything that I brought up that was interesting and you want a separate post of, let me know!
what is a soul and why should I care?
I wrote this years ago and kept it to myself for a long time, but now seems like a good time to share.

Working on a few others (I also did a few cards to like draw? They’re in a box lmao. Hope you get what u mean)
Magic exists. But don’t fool yourself into seeing it where it isn’t.
When your dream is about something you saw, heard or thought about in the last few days, it means nothing.
If you watched a documentary about tigers and you dream of a tiger, that is not a divine message. It is just your mind processing information.
But if you dream of being in a medieval banquet, when you have not watched an Arthurian film in months and have not thought about buffets in days, then you might be wandering in a past life.
When you are sleepy or lost in thought, and you find yourself seeing, hearing or smelling things that are not there, they mean nothing.
If you are daydreaming about going to Disneyland and you suddenly hear the sound of a carousel, you simply have an active imagination.
But if you are very focused on finishing a paper, and the words on your screen suddenly warp into the shape of a rollercoaster, then you are having a waking vision.
When the images you see are merely derived from the colors or marks on your scrying instrument, then you are not scrying.
If your crystal ball has a scratch in the shape of a musical note, and you see a piano, your mind is simply thinking creatively.
But if your scrying mirror is entirely spotless, and yet from its center, you see a detailed portrait emerging, only then are you really scrying.
When what you see on your altar are slight movements that take only a moment, your god did not create them.
If you are looking at Venus’ portrait while praying to her, and you see her smile for a second, you are only imagining it.
But if you see her running her hand through her hair while you hear the soft sound of her fingers against it, then she is hearing your prayer and enjoying your presence.
Easy. Simply refer to the cards’ symbology. Because when you have a deep connection with tarot, the cards will always speak to you. Not just when you are using them, but even in your dreams too.
When you dream of a vehicle…
…remember The Chariot, the card that represents all forms of transportation. It means ambitiousness and triumph. Perhaps you are being advised to keep going and stay driven. Or your success in a situation is being predicted.
When you dream of a fire…
…think of The Tower, the card of Mars, who stokes the fire in all of us. Maybe you are being asked to watch your temper, lest you do something you will regret later. Or perhaps a shocking ending in your life is being prophesied.
When you dream of a microphone…
…look to Judgement, the card of amplifiers, trumpets and other musical instruments. The Divine might be asking you to wake up and open your eyes. Perhaps because somebody in your life is the Devil wearing a disguise.
When you dream of arrows…
…remember the Eight of Wands, also named “Arrows of Love”. Maybe it is time to ask someone out, or begin exploring your options once more. Then again, perhaps your soulmate is simply arriving, and you do not need to do anything.
When you dream of the number five…
…think of what it means in tarot. The Five of Wands is conflict. The Five of Pentacles is poverty. The Five of Swords is defeat. The Five of Cups is grief. Perhaps difficulties are coming, and you are being told to stay strong and keep believing.
When you dream of a child…
…look to The Sun, where a little boy is enjoying his ride. This is the card of pure joy and emotional fulfillment. Maybe you will soon experience that kind of happiness. Perhaps in your life, the sun is about to shine again.
When you dream of a stranger…
…try to recall what he or she looked like. Young like a Page? Dashing like a knight? Beautiful like a queen? Which of tarot’s court cards does the stranger remind you of? Remember that card’s meaning to understand what your dream is saying.
When you dream of gold coins…
…see if you can remember how many there were. Seven, and look to the Seven of Pentacles. It means your harvest is assured, but you need to be patient. One, and look to the Ace of Pentacles. A financial opportunity should be coming to you shortly.
When you dream of a weighing scale…
…think of Justice. Did you wrong someone recently? Or was it the other way around? Because karma is coming. Hopefully not for you. Or perhaps you are just being told to look out for a Libra. Other than karma’s, this card is theirs too.
When you dream of an old man…
…remember The Hermit. Perhaps the Universe is asking you to retreat like him. Maybe being alone is what you need right now. But then again, this is the card of Virgo. So if you know one, maybe you are being asked never to let them go.

decluttering - the process or activity of getting rid of things you do not need or want from your home or another place.
decluttering is very underrated!
every item we have holds a specific energy, depending on what we ''energized'' it with.
''energizing'' an item = putting an intention/intense feeling on it.
example: you want to do tarot with the help of playing cards you found around, but they keep telling you wrong things! this is because the cards were 'energized' with the energy of 'playing' (in case someone played with that specific deck before). in such case, clear the cards, 'return them to the state they were' (by order) and set the intention that from now own, they will predict.
the same goes for other items - if you have some t-shirt you were once made fun of, you will always be reminded of it, wearing it, even subconciously, feeling 'negative' or as if people judge you by your looks, because that is the ''energy'' that was set into the shirt.
you can take an item and set the intention like ''if i write with this specific pen, everything it writes will come true'' - the trick is it to 100% believe it, without doubt! think of ways you could trick yourself into believing.
to heal, it's very necessary to declutter everything we don't truly need. my examples:
recently, i have cleared my blog from energy that made me feel even the tiniest bit uncomfortable - this allowed me to regain control of my emotions and self, as well as be able to set boundaries;
i have removed over 2000 ''watch later'' videos on youtube, because i felt like 'i will watch them later' even if they are on that list for years. removing them, i don't feel like 'putting things on tomorrow' aka procastinating anymore, which means, i removed my energy of ''i'll do it later'';
often we don't recognize that we put negative intentions in our things! to allow to heal from those energies and intentions that bring us more harm than good, it's better to either remove them from our lives or, if it's something that has to stay, clearing its energy.
why do lucky charms work?
because we believe that this certain item brings luck, so everytime we truly believe in that, the intention becomes stronger and more positive. this goes for ourselves as well - if we believe that we are lucky, luck will surround us constantly!
intention & belief are the strongest power we can have!
it is difficult to believe in ourselves. it's difficult to believe what society doesn't believe. but doing that, we can be very powerful!
tasks
how about we try things to help you clear your energy? it will improve your well-being very much! doing these will help you to remove things you are uncomfortable with yourself with and become a more confident soul in general!
digital declutter - remove: tabs, posts you saved for later but don't actually use/need, pictures on your device you don't use or have the tiniest discomfort/sadness with, organize everything by folder, remove apps/programs you don't use, youtube playlist videos you put on later but haven't touched in the longest time, delete emails/spam & make them stop sending them if you don't actually need it, messenger/social media chats you don't use for long with people you stopped chatting with, delete 'downloads' you don't use - it's just use of space, remove phone numbers/contacts you don't use ; organize everything to not let you feel confused/lazy next time so you won't have to declutter everything again and instead do it instantly;
home declutter - let go of items you truly don't need and won't ever use, sell/give them away; old stationary that doesn't work anymore - throw such things away! paper, litte things that lie around for no reason, clean the whole house - and i mean every inch of it with the intention to clean the energy in the home, re-organize your room/table/bed if it doesn't satisfy you, going by the feeling by ''well i have no choice'' if you can't change it will show universe only that you're not grateful, so if you can - change it in someway, even if it's just moving the bed to a different place or putting pictures on the wall, keep things that make you happiest in a place you see them most - that way you will 'automatically be grateful' and gratitude means getting gifts from the universe! have a place for every thing and reward yourself everytime you put it there instantly instead of just putting it somewhere with the intention to 'clean it later' - that will just put in negative intention in your effort again; if you have food, makeup, paint or other products that have a date limitation, throw them away if they're due!
personal declutter - analyze your feelings, give yourself time to think: what makes you feel upset in any kind of way? write down everything you can currently think of in some journal or even simple piece of paper, don't put it on later, make it a habit, reward yourself for it - don't let those confused and mixed emotions wander through your mind, it just gives your body more stress! draw out your emotions - you don't have to be an artist, you can even do it with paper and pen, just draw whatever you feel like; if you surpress yourself, you will know what to work on; do shadow work, forgive things that happened in the past, clear out misunderstandings with people, go out to nature more, meditate, plan your days and find your own schedule! if you feel bad for going to sleep at 2am - work towards going sleep earlier, being proud of yourself is important! be more honest - being honest, without surpressing, will make you find ways to deal with it in a healthy way even when releasing those emotions, but your mind and body will be thankful! do more things that make you cry - cry more, sing or talk loudly more to be more confident, go to the mirror and practice seeing the good parts of yourself! write down anything you wish for/what you want/what you deserve, rebirth: burn the past and start from zero - if you had no limitations what would you do? and even if you have limitations, what is a smart way to do it anyway? do things that make you passionate, have your own morning time, evening time, passion time, work time, calm time, sleep time - give yourself time for everything you want and don't ever ever ever feel guilty about treating yourself nicely! treat yourself more with your favorite movies or snacks or desserts!
How can I go out of the body?
— natinhaaa This question gets asked so much so i just decided to try my best at doing a master post on Astral Projection. That way we can throw all the basics out there. Astral Projection or Out-of-body Experience(OBE) is when the conscious mind separates from the Physical Body and moves into the Astral Body to experience. We technically Astral Project every single of night of our lives as we go to sleep and enter into the Dream state. However most of us just don’t remember this as we’re usually unconscious. So saying you can’t astral project is a lie because EVERYONE can do it, we do it every single day. Some people enjoy learning to Astral Project consciously and this is what we’re going to talk about…
When you astral project you are consciously aware of things you encounter while out of your physical body. Some people can astral project naturally and others are still torn by the fear of Astral Projection and find the inability to let go. We are attached by a silver/gold cord to our body so when we dream we can easily go back into our body when we wake up. There is never a chance of death from learning Astral Projection, you are entirely completely safe. “There are two general schools of thought on the nature of astral projection. These can broadly be defined as the mystical model and the phasing model.
The Phasing Model, which was defined by Robert Monroe, holds the belief that it is impossible to actually leave your body in the truest sense of the word, and that the astral planes and the physical world are merely points on the long spectrum of consciousness. When a person projects, they actually “phase” into another area of consciousness and the locales it contains. This can be likened to tuning a radio to another station. One of the initial signposts representing a phase shift away from physical reality has been labeled the state of focus 10 (mind awake/body asleep). This viewpoint can be seen as a logical progression of the philosophy that external reality is actually an internally created state
The Mystical Model includes a large variety of belief systems and astral maps, but they are tied together by their belief that astral projection takes place outside of the actual physical body. In this model, a more subtle energy body is believed to carry the consciousness outside of the physical body. In their book Projection of the Astral Body, Carrington and Muldoon detail how consciousness is transferred into a secondary “energy” body (the etheric body) to allow travel into the astral planes. This idea is also described by other authors such as Robert Peterson in his book Out of Body Experiences: How to have them and what to expect (chapters 5, 17, 22), and Robert Bruce in his book Astral Dynamics (pages 31-33, 404-410, 538). Bruce expanded on this idea in his book Astral Dynamics, stating that higher planes of existence are reached through the progressive projection of subtler energy bodies from previous projected bodies (pages 33-42). The subtle body is attached to the physical body by means of an energetic connection which usually takes the appearance of a silver cord ‘plugging’ into the chakra system like an umbilical cord. Robert Peterson describes this in chapter 13 of his book Out of Body Experiences, Robert Bruce in his book Astral Dynamics (pages 27, 52-53, 84, 397-403,544) and by Carrington and Muldoon in their book Projection of the Astral Body.“
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ HOW TO GO OUT OF BODY STEP BY STEP There are many techniques out there but i thought it would be fascinating to write about the Monroe technique since he was one of the first people to discover Astral Projection. Robert Allan Monroe (1915 - 1995) was a psychic researcher and author of Journeys Out of the Body, a 1971 book that popularized the expression “out-of-body experience” (also called astral projection). Monroe was a conservative Virginia businessman who had his first out-of-body experiences in 1958. After much experimentation, he founded The Monroe Institute, a “nonprofit education and research organization devoted to the exploration of human consciousness” and developed a method he called Hemi-Sync (hemispherical synchronization) to induce mental states that are favorable for inducing out-of-body experiences. Hemi-Sync is a system which aims to balance the brain waves of both of the brain’s hemispheres or lobes through cooperative processing of auditory stimulus. The stimulus, together with meditative instruction, is provided via headphones. The method is based on a concept known as binaural beats.
Step One:
Relax the body. According to Monroe, “the ability to relax is the first prerequisite, perhaps even the first step itself” to having an OBE. (out of body experience). This includes both physical and mental relaxation. Monroe does not suggest a method of attaining this relaxation, although progressive muscle relaxation, coupled with deep breathing exercises (inhale 1, exhale 2, inhale 3… until about 50 or 100) are known to work well.
Step Two:
Enter the state bordering sleep. This is known as the hypnogogic state. Once again, Monroe doesn’t recommend any method of doing this. One way is to hold your forearm up, while keeping your upper arm on the bed, or ground. As you start to fall asleep, your arm will fall, and you will awaken again. With practice you can learn to control the hypnogogic state without using your arm. Another method is to concentrate on an object. When other images start to enter your thoughts, you have entered the hypnogogic state. Passively watch these images. This will also help you maintain this state of near-sleep. Monroe calls this Condition A.
Step Three:
Deepen this state. Begin to clear your mind. Observe your field of vision through your closed eyelids at the blackness in front of your. After a while you may start to notice light patterns. These are simply neural discharges. They have no specific effect. Ignore them. When they cease, one has entered what Monroe calls Condition B. From here, one must enter an even deeper state of relaxation which Monroe calls Condition C– a state of such relaxation that you lose all awareness of the body and sensory stimulation. You are almost in a void in which your only source of stimulation will be your own thoughts.
The ideal state for leaving your body is Condition D. This is Condition C when it is voluntarily induced from a rested and refreshed condition and is not the effect of normal fatigue. To achieve Condition D, Monroe suggests that you practice entering it in the morning just as you are getting up, or after a short nap.
Step Four:
Enter a state of Vibration. This is the most important part of the technique, and also the most vague. Many projectors have noted these vibrations at the onset of projection. They can be experienced as a mild tingling, or as if electricity is being shot through the body. Their cause is a mystery. It may actually be the astral body trying to leave the physical body.
For entering into the vibrational state, he offers the following directions:
1. Remove all jewelry or other items that might be touching your skin.
2. Darken the room so that no light can be seen through your eyelids, but do not shut out all light.
3. Lie down with your body along a north-south axis, with your head pointed toward magnetic north.
4. Loosen all clothing, but keep covered so that you are slightly warmer than what might normally be comfortable.
5. Be sure you are in a location where, and at a time when, there will be absolutely no noise to disturb you.
6. Enter a state of relaxation.
7. Give yourself the mental suggestion that you will remember all that occurs during the upcoming session that will be beneficial to your well being. Repeat this five times.
8. As your breathe, concentrate on the void in front of you.
9. Select a point a foot away from your forehead, then change your point of mental reference to six feet.
10. Turn the point 90 degrees upward by drawing an imaginary line parallel to your body axis up above you head. Focus there and reach out for the vibrations at that point and bring them back into your body.
Even if you don’t know what these vibrations are, you will know when you have achieved contact with them.
Step Five:
Learn to control the vibrational state. Practice controlling them by mentally pushing them into your head, down to your toes, making them surge throughout your entire body, and producing vibrational waves from head to foot. To produce this wave effect, concentrate on the vibrations and mentally push a wave out of your head and guide it down your body. Practice this until you can induce these waves on command. Once you have control of the vibrational state, you are ready to leave the body.
Step Six:
Begin with a partial separation. The key here is thought control. Keep your mind firmly focused on the idea of leaving the body. Do not let it wander. Stray thoughts might cause you to lose control of the state.
Now having entered the vibrational state, begin exploring the OBE by releasing a hand or a foot of the “second body”. Monroe suggests that you extend a limb until it comes in contact with a familiar object, such as a wall near your bed. Then push it through the object. Return the limb by placing it back in to coincidence with the physical one, decrease the vibrational rate, and then terminate the experiment. Lie quietly until you have fully returned to normal. This exercise will prepare you for full separation.
Step Seven:
Dissociate yourself from the body. Monroe suggests two methods for this. One method is to lift out of the body. To do this, think about getting lighter and lighter after entering the vibrational state. Think about how nice it would be to float upward. Keep this thought in mind at all costs and let no extraneous thoughts interrupt it. An OBE will occur naturally at this point.
Another method is the “Rotation Method” or “roll-out” technique. When you have achieved the vibrational state, try to roll over as if you were turning over in bed. Do not attempt to roll over physically. Try to twist your body from the top and virtually roll over into your second body right out of your physical self. At this point, you will be out of the body, but next to it. Think of floating upward, and you should find yourself floating above the body.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Common Questions: How do i get over the fear? you have to let go completely. you have to let go. you have to let go. Completely LET GO. Did i mention you need to let go? That is truthfully the only way to get past the fear of Astral Travel. You can’t fight the resistance that builds from the ego-mind you have to put yourself in a pure state of meditation and Let go by relaxing and being at peace. If you dont lose the fear, you can’t astral project consciously it’s really as simple as that. I keep getting stuck in Sleep Paralysis? This is not demons or negative “entities” this is merely the jumping off point. I personally believe when we’re in the sleep paralysis state the reason we have hallucinations and frightening visions is because we’re moreso in a 4th dimensional state of consciousness (the world of thoughts). So when your body is anchored in that state it is actually the easiest time to try to separate from your body and perform astral projection. Rather than fight the fear go further and pop out on the other side ;) How do we *see* when we’re astral projecting if we don’t have our physical eyes? This is because you are seeing within your Mind’s eye during Astral Projection. Did you know your pineal gland has rods and cones just like your eyes? The pineal gland also emits light and produces melatonin which regulates your sleep cycles. “the interior of the pineal gland actually has retinal tissue composed of rods and cones (photoreceptors) inside its interior lining just like the eye, and is even wired into the visual cortex in the brain. “The photoreceptors of the retina strongly resemble the cells of the pineal gland”. Dr. David Klein, Science Daily. It even has vitreous fluid in it like an eye does. " They don’t call it a third eye for nothing ;) More here: http://theawakenedstate.tumblr.com/post/93240713270/this-is-my-question-about-astral-projection-how-can-we What if the demons or negative entities get me when i’m out of body, am i vulnerable?

Hi, I wanted to ask since you seem to know what you're doing. I'm not confident in my pendulum skills as I feel like it only tells me what I want to hear and I don't have tarot cards. I was wondering if you knew I'd there was a more definitive, trustworthy way of asking yes or no questions?
I want to communicate with my guides and ask them things but I really don't have a reliable way of asking, any help would be appreciated.
hii!!! i usually cleanse my pendulum with incense before using it to clear it from any negative energies, and before asking it questions i call upon my spirit guides and higher self with the intention "i call upon my spiritual team and higher self only, for the highest good of all, please come through and help me find the truth" and then i keep my pendulum steady with my dominant hand, and holding it a few centimeters away from my other palm, i start asking questions i already know like "are my eyes black? is my hair blue? am i wearing red?" just to calibrate it and see if it gives me the right answers, then I start asking the real questions and voilà, the job is done 🕊️
Chakras, Elements, & Tarot: A Masterpost
❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💟
Hello Dear Ones,
With respect to the individual chakra posts I reblogged from @mychakraisout yesterday, I wanted to somewhat consolidate that information to further show the link between the Tarot suits, the elements, and the chakra system.
I also wish to apply my knowledge of the Tarot; plus what I’ve learned in my Reiki certification thus far in this post. There may be discrepancies or differences between what myself and others post. That’s the beauty of learning and a variety of schools of thought. The object here is to foster connection through diversity and mindfulness. Our readerships can take from and adapt what they glean from our posts as they wish to.

The Tarot, as we know, is a powerful divinatory tool and a source for inner insight and wisdom that can manifest in our physical bodies and the world.
Reiki’s healing and wisdom is for both the physical and metaphysical bodies; harmoniously integrating the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual.
Combined, the chakra system, and the Tarot as well, are not only connected to the tangible elements of Earth, Fire, Water, and Air, but to Light, Source, and higher planes of consciousness.
~~~~
Let’s break this down a little further. Traditionally, the four Tarot suits correspond to the following:
Swords: Air, mental functions, thoughts, communication (all forms), rationalization, speech.
Cups: Water, emotions and emotional responses, connection, relationships, healing, spirituality.
Wands: Fire, our drive, ambition, passions, and creativity.
Pentacles: Earth, the things which stabilize us, help us to feel secure and grounded.
The Major Arcana, however, tends to deal more in the abstract and can unify the concepts of the four Minor Arcana suits.
~~~~
Bearing this in mind, let’s apply these concepts to the chakra system; first by physical location on the body:
❤️ Root: Base of the spine/lowest part of the hips.
🧡 Sacral: Ovaries/testes.
💛 Solar Plexus: Stomach, just above the navel.
💚 Heart: Center of the chest.
💙 Throat: Base of the neck.
💜 Third Eye: Between the eyebrows.*
💟 Crown: Top of the head. *
*Though the chakras have physical access and healing points on the body, once you get past the throat chakra, you are working with your metaphysical/astral body. It extends 3-6 feet from your corporeal body, and the subsequent chakras connect to divine guidance, knowingness, intuition, compassion, and Source itself, from which Reiki energy flows. These chakras also reflect Light; the combination of all elements (Earth, Fire, Water, and Air) and pertain to the more nebulous Major Arcana in the Tarot, as opposed to the specifics of the Minor.
~~~~
Traditionally, these are the parts of the body, psychological and metaphysical areas the chakras assist in healing; stemming from those physical placement points:
❤️ Root ❤️
Physical: Skeletal system, teeth, large intestine, kidneys, blood, adrenal cortex.
Psychological: Survival, self preservation.
🧡 Sacral 🧡
Physical: Ovaries, testicles, womb, genitals, bladder, spleen.
Psychological: Movement, connection.
💛 Solar Plexus 💛
Physical: Pancreas, digestive system, liver, gall bladder.
Psychological: The will, relationships.
💚 Heart 💚
Physical: Thymus, heart, lungs, circulatory system, arms, hands.
Psychological: Love of self/others.
💙 Throat 💙
Physical: Thyroid, parathyroid, throat, ears, mouth, shoulders, neck.
Psychological: Communication.
💜 Third Eye 💜
Physical: Pituitary gland, eyes, brow, base of the skull.
Psychological: Intuition, Imagination.
💟 Crown 💟
Physical: Hair, the head, central nervous system.
Psychological: Compassion for self/others.
Metaphysical: Spiritual love, knowingness, divine connection.
~~~~
Taking this knowledge of the chakras a step further, they are interconnected with the elements, suits of the Tarot, and the Tarot itself, as follows:
❤️ Root ❤️
Element: Earth (Stability, grounding, security.)
Tarot Suit: Pentacles.
🧡 Sacral 🧡
Element: Fire (Passion, action, drive, ambition, creativity.)
Tarot Suit: Wands.
💛 Solar Plexus 💛
Element: Water (Emotions, emotional responses, healing, connection, spirituality, relationships.)
Tarot Suit: Cups.
💚 Heart 💚
Element: Water (Emotions, emotional responses, healing, connection, spirituality, relationships.)
Tarot Suit: Cups.
💙 Throat 💙
Element: Air (All forms of communication, thoughts, rationalization, speech, mental processes.)
Tarot Suit: Swords.
💜 Third Eye 💜
Element: Light (The combination of all elements; Earth, Fire, Water, Air).
Tarot Suit: The Third Eye is not tied to a specific suit, but rather the Major Arcana. Remember that this chakra as well as the Crown deal with the metaphysical/astral body, thus a broader concept to explore.
💟 Crown 💟
Element: Light (The combination of all elements; Earth, Fire, Water, Air). The Crown is also a link to divine consciousness, Source, and all that is.
Tarot Suit: The Crown is not tied to a specific suit, but rather the Major Arcana. Remember that this chakra as well as the Third Eye deal with the metaphysical/astral body, and in this case the divine. Thus, a broader concept to explore.
~~~~
In summary, the physical body, emotional body, and metaphysical body are all intricately interconnected. They do not, and cannot, function independently of each other. As such, the Tarot can be utilized to find out which areas of these bodies need attention and healing. Once these areas are healed and balanced, we are a more complete whole. ✨
