The energy of the day: the #6ofwands How to best harness it: the #aceofwands . . Reclaiming all of your desires is a fantastic gift we’re given today. In a world that tells us we’re only allowed to do one thing for the rest of our lives, that tells us that sex or desire must look a certain way and pleasure must always be veiled in modesty, saying yes to our appetites in an unapologetic way can be so revolutionary and empowering its destabilizes those around us that aren’t ready to do the same. Knowing your power and holding it like a wand is the the hardest part of casting a spell. For some of us, this is difficult, but I wouldn’t be surprised if you’re reminded again and again today of just the amount of momentum and energy you bring to the table inherently. The hard part is what comes next. Take it. Grasp your hand around your intention, your power, your energetic, spiritual, and physical desire. Let it run through you like magma and out your arms into the world. That is the second half to the spell. I’ve spent a week here applying and looking for some kind of work, trying hard to keep anxiety at bay. But I woke up this morning with an intoxicating sentence running through my head: I have absolutely nothing to worry about. I am so charismatic, so powerful, and so divinely guided that all I need do is take action, then wait for the spell to take root and foster. So too are you divinely guided, even if there are systems in place to hold you and hurt you. Even if you’re conditioned to believe you are weak, you do not belong, your desires and existence are incorrect and monstrous. It’s all just so much compost for your future garden baby. Just grab a wand and step into yourself, and remember that this: your existence is resistance; your breath is a spell. I love you 🌺💖🔥🌊🌪🌲✨🧿 . .

🌺Hey lindos🌺 It’s been a minute since I’ve done a daily pull, but now that we’ve (barely) survived eclipse season, the Mercury retrograde from hell and corporate “ #pride “, I thought it might be nice to share today’s collective message. . . . When I do these, Sometimes the medicine is complex, sometimes it’s very hard to swallow, and sometimes the message rings clear as a bell, like today. Healing is a constant negotiation. Meeting yourself where you are is a daily conversation. I say this a lot and it’s so perfectly represented here I’ll say it again: healing isn’t linear. Self love, like most good things, take time. There’s a reason the cups suit is depicted with seashells. They house echoes; of the past, of a song you feel in your soul but can’t necessarily articulate. They sings the songs of their home. The entire ocean, in the hollows of a shell. Presence is the name of the game, amores. Being curious and open about where we are today, at this moment, and working from there. My roommate always says “baby steps are still steps” and honestly that shit is so smart I wanna put it on a big ratty tshirt and wear it on days like today when grocery shopping and writing this post feel like Herculean feats of strength and wonder. All I’m trying to say is be kind and attentive to what you actually need, what will actually nourish you in a real way, however small or insignificant it may seem on the outside. The big goal will still be there when you feel up to it. All I know is, tomorrow is one year without my beautiful mami so today I’m gonna make a sandwich, take a shower and pat my incredibly ripped body on it’s yoked-ass back for making it through like the bad bitch it is. I hope you do too. Remember: baby steps are still steps 🌺 . . .

🌺Happy Monday familia!🌺 Continuing with our monthly focus card, I’ve been working on expanding my practice through the creation and curation of spreads. It’s a practice I truly enjoy that had long fallen away. And it helps my readings be more focused and specific, and ultimately clearer. So here’s a little something I designed as a way to clarify how to best welcome in the emperor archetype when it comes up in your life. If you end up using it, let me know how it worked for you! Besitos🌺💖✨✌🏽🌙👑 . . #queeringthetarot #queerbruja #queermagic #tarot #mindfulness #queer #cartomancy #divination #selflove #queertarot #nonbinary #bruja #magick #magic #radical #femme #selfcare #spirituality #healing #balance #trans #transwitch #poc #queercommunity #hibiscuseyetarot #transrights #radicalacceptance #theemperor #tarotspreads (at Sweetbriar, Austin) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6_jTC9nGNA/?igshid=5g569h5jap0u

🌺Hey familia🌺 It’s been a minute, right? I’ve been taking some much needed time away from social media to try to figure out what comes next for Hibiscus Eye on social media. The short and less satisfying answer is that I’m not entirely sure what comes next, but I know it involves tarot and all of you because without your support and this craft I’m always learning from, my tiny little platform wouldn’t exist. The longer and more complex answer is that my interests have really shifted over the last six months and I’m ready to expand as a content creator and business owner. I’ve had so much difficultly finding any motivation lately to post daily draws because frankly, my offerings have shifted and expanded. Just like I continue to do so. So it’s fitting I drew #theemperor as my monthly focus card. Did you know we are in an emperor year? You can figure this out through adding the digits of the year together, ie. 2020= 20+20=40=4+0=4. It’s a year of unapologetic expansion through restructuring and reorganizing, and it seems quite fitting to receive that as a focus not just for the year but for January. Hit the ground running as they say. So expect some slightly different content going forward (with the emperor as this months focus card), including spellwork, herbalism, thoughts on being a part of the bipoc and queer community, and of course these 78 cards that have held me up for more than two years. And in the meantime, here’s my cute trans non-binary femme face rocking my New Year’s Eve makeup look out in the town in Austin. Love you with all my heart, my supportive and incredible internet family 🌺🏳️‍🌈💖✨🏴‍☠️ . .

🌺Happy Saturday familia🌺 Before we get to today’s #dailydraw I just wanna say that although I’m still running my sale on readings through the end of 2019, I can happily say I’m now officially employed! Thank you to everyone who has supported my work and my craft these past couple of months (there were so many of you!). I don’t think I could’ve made this life changing move without that much needed support. So thank you, and if you feel like you still need support or guidance on your path, hit ya girl up in the DMs and schedule a reading. Anyway, onwards we go . . Energy of the day: the Hanged One How to best navigate it: the Four of Pentacles . . Today may be marked by a series of pregnant pauses scattered throughout the day. Alternately, you may find your plans somehow falling through or put on pause. You’re being invited to pay attention to what comes up in these moments of solitude, especially any intuitive hits that you may be getting. Repeated messages and numbers, phrases or visuals can all be really potent arrows pointing you in an unexpected direction. The best way to honor these is to listen to your body and take care of things at home. Waiting for a ride to pick you up later? Maybe what you need is to make sure you get a good nap in first so you have enough energy to stave off getting a cold tomorrow. Plans keep getting canceled? Maybe that’s for the best, maybe cause what your joints actually need is a really warm bath full of tea tree and grapefruit. Whatever the case, honor those sacred pauses today by listening to the source of those invitations in the vessel we know as the body. Give yourself the gift of purposeful stillness and see what comes up from the depths before you make a move today. You’ll be glad you did. 🌺✨👁✨🧿 . .

Tryna catch up on my #monthlylesson cards finally! From this Virgo to you, here’s September’s card: If the #strength card shows us who we are when our compassion is tested, then #thehermit is here to show us who we are in the silence, when the distraction of external stimuli is stripped away. There is knowledge in stillness, if we can move past the desire for distraction. The hermit is ruled by Virgo, whose words are “I analyze”. Virgos are masters at understanding a concept in its entirety, at breaking down the parts of said concept and diluting it to its essence. This is also what makes them excellent holistic healers. In this way, the hermit is a card of deep introspection and of a stripping away of something to its essence. This is why the hermit climbs to the mountain’s peak: they are trying to understand the entire landscape to better get a grip on where they land in it. It reveals how we talk to ourselves, how we digest, how we act when confronted with ourselves without the veneer of performance or the threat of being seen. The hermit asks us to evaluate and reevaluate how we treat ourselves when we have new information to process. Trauma, triggers, systematic racism, and internalized toxic behaviors. Confronting these concepts through real events can leave us scarred and unable to objectively process, but the hermit reminds us that we can start to if we get a better view. When alone, we can scale a mountain and see our place in the landscape. If integrity is doing the right thing when no one is watching, then this is a card that invites us into deep integrity by revealing what our relationship to ourselves is when we have internal work to tend to and dialogues to run through. So when you get this card, remember that you get to dictate how you process, and whatever that may look like, I hope you’re kind to yourself through it🌺✨🌙💖😘 . .

It’s ok to be honest with yourself today. Most likely you’re in dire need of space to regroup and recharge, because right now you’re having difficulty integrating the need to be focused and productive with your current mindset. It could be that you’re trying to commit to a decision or way of thinking but you find yourself falling back to old patterns because you won’t give yourself the necessary space to honor the messy thoughts coming up without acting on them. It could also be that someone isn’t honoring your boundaries today, and that’s what’s making it hard to focus. Whatever the situation, the solution starts with making time to be alone. Free yourself of external stimuli and try to allow yourself to see your current mindset with honesty and compassion. Are you fooling yourself into thinking you’re making the right choice? Is this a pitfalls of the ego? Are you just a little afraid of failure or experiencing lack? Or is someone not respecting your need for space and limits? Take a second to analyze your thoughts as objectively as you can, and try to leave judgement at the door. And fuck anyone who blames you for needing that. Besitos 😘💖🌺✨🙏🏽🌈 . .

I wanna take a second to just thank my friend @genavivrose for all the poignant and lovely gifts I got in their care package! Every single item has a place in my room now, either on my altar or on my laptop as a reminder to feel gratitude for the support and friendship that can be found in the most unexpected of places. In the past (almost) year of running Hibiscus Eye Tarot, I’ve meet some of the most community-driven, compassionate, honest and kind people on a platform not known for its authenticity. I’ve felt the support of @riseupgoodwitch, of @xo.elletice ‘s sweet conversations, of @genavivrose ‘s gifts and that super validating and honest letter they sent me. There are others on here too whose love and support I’ve felt in spades, whose comments have been validating and encouraging, even when I needed to take time off to focus on my mental health. Thank you to all of you. You have taught me time and again that community can be found and upheld through time zones and distance, and for that I am truly grateful🌺💖✨🌈🙏🏽 . . #hibiscuseyetarot #queeringthetarot #queerbruja #queermagic #tarot #mindfulness #queer #cartomancy #divination #selflove #queertarot #nonbinary #bruja #brujamagic #magick #magic #radical #femme #selfcare #medicine #spirituality #healing #balance #trans #transwitch https://www.instagram.com/p/B3wjJrOnexz/?igshid=rhwz3nxa8zkk
