-ShaKY HANDS

-Asking a spirit if they want to talk and hang out and then the pendulum just sits there and does nothing and you realize you’ve been ditched

This is a very special time of year celebrated at the start of Aries season . On this day also known as Ostara, the earth and the sun are positioned so that both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres have equal sunlight, this is symbolic of balance. This is also a time of new beginnings as the flowers bloom and new life emerges.

Many pagan religions celebrate Ostara as the time when the Earth (the Goddess) and the Sun (the God) reunite in perfect harmony. A lot of the spring equinox symbols/correspondences I’m going to share are also popular for the Christian holiday Easter, so it’s interesting to see different holidays and their origin from earlier religions and ancient rituals.

With Love,

The Seed. a tarot spread for ostara.

1. The Soil.

Where have you grown? While it most certainly is the dawn of a new day, keep in mind your roots are proof that you have already come a long way. The soil is your past. What lesson can you learn from days gone by?

2. The Weed.

You wish to flourish and grow strong, but there is undoubtedly something that is stunting your progress. What are your obstacles, what’s holding you back?

3. The Seed.

Within your immediate future, which area of your life will you first see signs of growth? Which seed has taken hold?

4. The Sun.

The love and support of others is helpful. But the will to grow comes from within. Let the sun be a reminder of what you need to keep in mind in order to help yourself grow.

5. The Rain.

There seems to be a virus or some sort of malware going around causing blogs to “send out” chat messages to blogs that they follow asking for help with the purchase of certain items through donations of seemingly small amounts using bitcoin and adds a link to the message.

The message goes as following (at least the first message I got went like this): “Hi there buddy. I need help, I’m trying to buy a laptop and I can’t afford it. I’m about 0.36$ short, and I’d really appreciate if you could help me and transfer some money to me via bitcoin using this *link*.”

The small details in the message seems to have a few variations with the greeting, amount and purchased item showing up in different variations from formal to friendly, from 0.016 to 2$ and from a phone case to a laptop among others.

The blogs that are affected send out the messages to blogs that they follow for a long time mostly, so you are most likely to receive the message from a long time, active follower whose name you might recognize or a mutual etc. The blogs that are affected are not spam bots but actual active followers who follow the recipient for months or years and most likely the blogger who “sent” the message is unaware of the message being sent.

DO NOT OPEN THE LINK.

Opening up the link will cause the virus to spread even more and infect your computer/mobile with any sort of malware.

resplendent beauty spell!

pick any fresh blossom. don’t forget to ask permission & say thank you! it doesn’t have to be perfect. you can use the color or type to have more meaning, it’s up to you!

get a stirring rod, a bowl of water, and go outside. it should be a bright day, bright enough that when you stir the water you see the sunlight sparkling in it.

place the blossom in your bowl and begin stirring. do it clockwise. also, the stirring rod can be anything, even a chopstick. do wide stirs so that the blossom spins with them. stir until it feels right to stop!

raise the blossom out & into your palms, still dripping. first at level to your chest and then up to your face. breathe in deep, and then smile!

end: a spell that works like a glamour, but more importantly helps you see your own beauty! (bonus: softly hum while you do it! if you do this spell thinking of romance, you could hum something like la vie en rose.)

inspired by sailor moon, a glamour to transform the perceptions of the ordinary to beautiful and powerful
