If they stopped to decide what another cheap soap opera, money game or reality tv to produce they could make a great leap into quality with giving money to make actual good films. For a good start they could adapt the hundreds of myths and greek tragedies just saying

Hold on, WE paid them? Why???...

Okay I looked it up. It's even worse. It's not private Greek movie studios. It's once again the Greek government which paid 6 million (from people's taxes, obviously) to Nolan to film here, as an incentive for large movie productions to come to film in Greece.

No, I get them. They thought it would probably boost tourism even more. And then Nolan came and transformed Greece from this

to this :

Beautiful Greek landscape behind Charlize Theron.

World famed Greek beach behind Zendaya.

Although I am not holding back when it's needed, I will acknowledge that nobody expected that Nolan would go mad like this. He was treated as one of Hollywood's best directors. I don't blame the Greek government for trusting him. But it's just impossible for the Greek government to do right somehow... whether it's an acceptable or a not acceptable mistake, you can rely on them making it anyway.

"Zendaya as Athena got it"

"And hold the helmet, spear and Aegis!"

"Hold the helmet, Aegis and spear?"

"And hold any visually dynamic colours or a good outfit"

"Hold the colours or any good outfit? Hey Jimmy, give me an Athena with nothing!"

However! Some of you aren’t hating on it for the right reasons

I hate on it because of the costumes and the Charybdis and the giants dressed in full plate and SOME OF the casting choices

Some of you are being fucking assholes because of Lupita Nyongo (I definitely spelled that wrong) and Elliot Page. A Greek mythology adaptation is not the place for your fucking bigotry

“Oh but Helen wasn’t black” Helen hatched out of a fucking egg

“Oh but Achilles wasn’t trans” correct but he was a drag queen for many years

Hello, Pile 1 :)

Tarot: Seven of Cups, Ace of Pentacles, The Empress Oracle: Victory, Appreciation, Blossoming Abundance

Pile One is actually such a sweet pile, but in a very different way than I expected.

The first thing that caught my attention here is that there is a very strong theme of imagination around love. I think you may have spent a lot of time wondering what your person would be like, what your relationship would look like, or even creating little scenarios in your head about the kind of connection you wanted to have one day. And honestly? I don't think there is anything wrong with that. Sometimes people make it seem like having dreams about love means you are being unrealistic, but I don't always see it that way. Sometimes those little daydreams are just your heart trying to understand what it wants. The feeling of being chosen. The feeling of being cared for. The feeling of having someone who feels like a safe place instead of another thing you have to figure out.

But the interesting part about this pile is that it doesn't stay in that "dreamy space".

Because there is a difference between imagining love and actually experiencing it. You can have a picture in your mind of how something should feel, but then someone comes along and shows you a version you never even considered before. I think this connection might surprise you because it may not look exactly like the fantasy you created(which is not a bad thing at all). Maybe you imagined a certain type of person, a certain kind of romance, or a relationship that would feel a specific way. But what arrives could be much more grounded. Less about constant excitement and more about feeling comfortable enough to breathe.

And honestly, I love the Ace of Pentacles here because it gives this whole pile something solid. It’s like the moment where you stop asking, "Is this ever going to happen?" and start realizing, "Wait... I am actually living it."

There is something very refreshing about a love that doesn't only exist in words. Someone saying they care is beautiful, but someone showing it through their actions changes everything. Remembering small details. Making time for you. Wanting to include you in their life. Creating something together instead of just talking about what could happen. The Empress adds such a beautiful layer because this isn't just about receiving love from another person. It also talks about how you feel within yourself when you are loved properly. I think this connection brings out a softer side of you. The side that doesn't always feel like it has to be strong, independent, or constantly doing something to earn your place. There is a sense of being able to relax and simply exist around someone. Like... you don't have to be the most interesting person in the room. You don't have to always have something impressive to offer. You don't have to wonder if you are too much or not enough.

You are just you, and someone genuinely enjoys that.

The Appreciation card really stood out because I think this relationship would have a lot of those small moments that other people might overlook. Looking at each other after a random conversation and smiling. Feeling grateful for little routines you create together. Realizing that happiness doesn't always come from huge romantic gestures. Sometimes it is the ordinary things that make you think, "I actually love my life right now." The Blossoming Abundance card also makes me think about something that grows slowly. Not everything has to happen overnight. Some relationships become beautiful because two people keep showing up, keep learning each other, and keep choosing to nurture what they have. The only thing I would keep in mind with this pile is not comparing your real love story to the perfect version you have imagined in your head. Because sometimes we wait for something to feel like a movie scene, but we miss the quiet moments that are actually showing us we are loved.

This pile reminds me of someone learning that love doesn't always have to be complicated to be meaningful. It can be exciting and peaceful at the same time. It can still give you butterflies while also making you feel safe. And maybe that is the part that surprises you the most-realizing that the love you hoped for doesn't have to take away your peace to prove that it is real.

This is where I'll pause the reading for Tumblr. If this pile has been resonating with you so far, the second half continues on Patreon, where we dive deeper into your reading. I'd love to have you there if you'd like to keep reading. 🤍

Hello, Pile 2 :)

Tarot: Six of Cups, The Chariot, Four of Swords Oracle: Blossoming Abundance, Cornucopia, Walking Away

Hmm... okay, this pile made me pause for a second because I don't think your lavender haze begins when you meet this person. I think it begins when you finally stop carrying things that were never meant to come with you.

Some of you have been holding onto old stories about love for much longer than you realise. Maybe it was a past relationship. Maybe it was someone you never got over. (Interestingly, I kept hearing the song The One That Got Away " by Katy Perry here.)m Maybe it wasn't even a person. It could have been disappointment, fear, or this quiet belief that love always comes with stress. Whatever it is, it has been taking up space.

And then this connection comes in.

The funny thing is, I don't think this person is trying to save you or fix your life. They're just... different. Being around them feels calmer. You don't feel like you're constantly trying to decode mixed signals or wonder where you stand. There isn't this pressure to make everything perfect all the time. It's almost like your nervous system gets a chance to rest. I actually smiled when I saw the Six of Cups because this relationship has such a comfortable quality to it. Not boring. Comfortable. There's a difference. You know those people who somehow make you feel like you've known them forever, even when you haven't? That's what this reminds me of. You don't have to rehearse conversations before talking to them. You don't have to act cooler than you are. You can laugh too loudly, tell them the dumb story you've already told three times, and somehow they still look at you like they're happy you're there.

BUT here's the thing...

I don't think this kind of love enters your life until you make peace with what you're leaving behind. And I don't mean that in a dramatic way. I mean, finally reaching that point where you stop checking whether someone from your past has changed. You stop comparing every new person to an old experience. You stop carrying on conversations that ended years ago. At some point, you just wake up and think, "I'm tired of living back there."

That's when everything starts moving. There is a really beautiful balance in this relationship because both of you seem to understand that love isn't only about excitement. It's also about peace. It's knowing you don't have to earn someone's attention every single day. It's having disagreements without immediately thinking that everything is over. It's feeling safe enough to rest, knowing the relationship will still be there tomorrow.

And honestly... I think that's your lavender haze.

Not shutting the world out completely, but choosing not to let the past have a seat at the table anymore. Once you stop giving yesterday so much power, you finally have room to enjoy what's in front of you. That's where the abundance comes in. Not because your life suddenly becomes perfect, but because your heart isn't split between what was and what could be anymore. You get to be present. And I think that's something this relationship teaches you every single day without even trying.

This is where I'll pause the reading for Tumblr. If this pile has been resonating with you so far, the second half continues on Patreon, where we dive deeper into your reading. I'd love to have you there if you'd like to keep reading. 🤍

Hello, Pile 3 :)

Tarot: King of Swords, Judgement, Knight of Swords Oracle: Financial Constraints, Woman Holding a Heart, Action, Door to Spirit (additional oracle card that jumped from the deck)

Okay... first of all, can we just acknowledge what happened while I was shuffling? 😭

This is the only pile that decided it wanted an extra message. Two cards literally fell onto the floor, and I always pay attention when that happens because it usually means there is something that really wants to be said with Huge speed. So yes... everyone else got three oracle cards. You guys got four. Make of that what you will. 😂

Now, getting into the reading...

I don't know why, but this pile immediately gave me the impression of two people who are very aware of what they want. Not in an arrogant way. More like... they've reached a point where they're tired of wasting time. I actually wouldn't be surprised if one or both of you have reached that stage in life where you're done entertaining connections that don't really go anywhere. The talking stage that lasts six months with no commitment? No thanks. Mixed signals? Also, no thanks. This pile has such a direct energy to it that I almost laughed.Someone here likes clarity. Actually... both of you probably do.

What's interesting, though, is that underneath all that confidence, I think there is someone with a really soft heart. That's why I love seeing the Woman Holding a Heart in the middle of all these very action-oriented cards. It's almost like saying, "Yes, I know exactly what I want... but I also love deeply." And I think people misunderstand you because of that. Some people might see you or this person as emotionally distant simply because you don't wear your heart on your sleeve. But once someone earns your trust... It's a completely different story.There is another theme that kept coming back while I was looking at these cards.

Timing.

I don't think this relationship happens when either of you are still figuring yourselves out. It almost feels like life asks both of you to become very clear about who you are first. What do you want? What you're willing to accept. What you're absolutely not willing to accept anymore.Only then do your paths cross. And honestly? I kind of like that. Because not every love story has to begin at nineteen. Not every relationship has to grow through confusion. Some people meet after they've already learned a few hard lessons, and that's exactly why the relationship works.

The Financial Constraints card caught my attention too, but I don't immediately think it's talking about money. For some of you, yes, finances could genuinely be part of your story. Maybe one of you is focused on building stability before committing to a relationship, or maybe you meet during a time when money feels a little tight. That's definitely possible. But for a lot of you, this card reminds me of emotional scarcity. Almost like someone grew up believing they always had to earn love. Earn attention, affection, and reassurance.So when someone comes into their life and simply... loves them... there's this moment of, "Wait... that's it? I don't have to prove myself first?"

That's a much bigger adjustment than people realise.

The Door to Spirit being the extra card, honestly, doesn't surprise me at all. If anything, it explains why this pile insisted on an additional message. This relationship changes something much deeper than your relationship status because I see it changing the way you trust your own intuition...the way you look at love and the way you see yourself. There is a sense that meeting this person opens a door you didn't even know existed. You become more aware of yourself. More honest with yourself. More willing to listen to that quiet voice inside instead of everyone else's opinions.

And then there is Action...

😂 Yeah... this pile doesn't know how to sit still.

I don't think this relationship spends years dancing around feelings. Once both people know what they want, things actually move. Conversations happen instantly. Decisions get made on the spot and then bamm!!! Plans are made. There isn't this endless cycle of "What are we?" because somebody here eventually says, "I'd rather have an answer than keep guessing." And you know what? Good.

Because the lavender haze for this pile isn't built on uncertainty.It's built on knowing exactly who you're walking beside.I think that's what makes this relationship feel so safe. Just Not because it's perfect. But because neither of you is afraid to move forward once your hearts have made up their minds.

This is where I'll pause the reading for Tumblr. If this pile has been resonating with you so far, the second half continues on Patreon, where we dive deeper into your reading. I'd love to have you there if you'd like to keep reading. 🤍
