Compassionate cynic. Going steady with science, but seduced by the occult. Believes in reason, possibly a Deist, certainly a perverse paradox. Craves art, books, philosophy, tarot, the profane, and the absurd. Advocate of cruelty-free peanut butter.

I have false starts. I'll be all excited to begin something, jump in, and then realize I have no plan for sustainability.

#Tarotsky #Tarot #Oracle #Messages #Inspiration #Soul #Reflection The responsibilities of adulthood can drain your life-force and distract you from your soul's desires.  Guarding against this invisible monster of neglect is a daily practice. Prompt: How can you nurture your soul's true calling?
An oracle card featuring a color theme of red, black, and tan, titled "The Soul''s Longing."  The card depicts an elegant young woman wearing a veil over her black hair.  Her eyes are closed and her cheeks are blushed.  The card reads: "What parts of yourself have you neglected?  Your soul is calling for deeper connection."

#libraries #reading #learning A love for books should begin early. Once it’s there, lifelong learning is undoubtedly the road ahead. Libraries are the strongholds of a society’s future. Keep knowledge accessible, regardless of financial class.

I bought this deck back in October. I’m a fanatic of tarot and mushrooms, so I didn’t have to think twice!

#tarotsky #tarot #art Collective Reading The Magician An individual day contains a microcosmic insight into the longterm reality we're building. We tend to emphasize "the big choices," but ultimately, it's the small ones we make daily that irrevocably shape our future realities. Choose well.
Image of tarot card.  Red spooky font "THE MAGICIAN" at bottom of card.  Colors are muted; off-white, gray, brown, black.   A human figure stares intensely forward as though into the soul of the viewer.  Its face is pale; dark pits for eyes crown accentuated cheekbones and sunken cheeks.  A large top hat sits upon a bald skull.  The expression on its face is unreadable, but intense.  It is clothed in black.  It holds between thin hands and spidery fingers a staff topped with a globe, an "X" marked on its white-ish hue.

Vibing Five of Cups for me; grief, loneliness, loss. I almost get a Nine of Wands, too; exhaustion, protecting oneself. If her arms were crossed over her body as though she were hugging herself, I’d fully commit to attributing 9ofW energy.

Depends on the format of the question and card placement meaning. Past, Present, Future? General energy?

Positively stunning! To me, your rendition of the Hierophant puts an emphasis on the spiritual knowledge aspect of the traditional card. How do you create this art style? So beautiful.

#BookSky💙📚 #book #review #reading I've begun reading "Still Life with Woodpecker" by Tom Robbins. I'm enjoying the whimsical style, quirky similes, and slant of perception. Excluding any egregious spoilers, what are your thoughts on this book, or others by this author?
Picture of book cover "Still Life with Woodpecker; a sort of love story" in blue font.  Image of a red-crested woodpecker flying with a strike match in its beak and an unlit stick of dynamite clutched in its talons.  Brown pillars on either side frame the image.  There are palm trees and pyramids in the background.

A man stands in front of a large wheel spoke embedded in a stone wall, as though pondering a revolution that only he can see.  Another spoked wheel is in front of him.  There are etched images in the stone of faces and people, like ghosts captured in time.

#TarotSky #tarot #art #advice #astrology TAURUS, VIRGO, CAPRICORN A cycle is finished, but you have yet to initiate the next phase. Stay focused on your priorities. Imagine you are the Universe's outlet for creation.
Lettering in spooky font, red letters at the bottom of the tarot card "XXI THE WORLD".  Color scheme is muted tones of brown, black, gray.  A human figure stands with one hand on a staff and the other behind its back.  They are clothed in a black pinstripe suit and black top hat.  Their face is mostly concealed by the brim of the hat and shadow.  A large globe of the Earth backs the figure.

#TarotSky #tarot #art #advice #astrology ARIES, LEO, SAGITTARIUS Ten of Pentacles Prosperity and security are rooted first in a state of mind; the physical aspects grow from that foundation. Without that mentality, it means nothing.
Dusty off-white background with a barren silhouette of a tree.  A spiked orb floats above; the pentacle.  Red spooky lettering at bottom of the tarot card: "10 of Pentacles."

#tarotsky Bluesky Collective 5 of Pentacles REVERSED Breathe in. Tides are shifting. Breathe out. Break the pattern. Life can be unfair, isolating, and damn challenging. Luckily, sucky streaks can't last forever. Be ready for opportunities as they appear; expect the playing field to even out.
Tarot card, 5 of pentacles in red letters, spooky font at bottom of card.  Backdrop is a dusty white hue, like smog, with older style buildings in the background.  Scene is muted in color; grays, browns, whites.  In foreground there is a tower made of stone with the 8-pointed pentacle adorning the top.  There is a human skull in the center of the pentacle.  A snowy slope descends gently to the bottom of the card with barren trees.

Natal Mercury RX in Scorpio. Verbal communication is challenging. My stream of consciousness gets articulated slowly, usually because I’m struggling to remember the word I want to use. It’s a lifelong pursuit to refine my style; aiming to be concise and come up with proper analogies. Sucks.

My splurge purchase. After being away from work sick, and paying for a crazy expensive inhaler, I’m a bit short. Still, I saw this deck and decided that I must have it. The art is delightfully eldritch and captivating. Lots of skulls, too. #tarot #art #horror #macabre #darkness #mysterious
Boxed deck of tarot cards titled “Horror Tarot” in spooky red font.  Art is subdued tones of gray, black, brown, and green.  A woman sits on a throne of barren vines and branches.  Her expression is emotionless but penetrating.

Spot on. Mars will be retrograding through my 7th house; the relationship arena. I’ve been contemplating how to use this energy for the highest good. Your words have shed a new dynamic on these energies that I hadn’t yet considered. Thank you for sharing this!

You are totally correct! The nature of duality is among my favorite philosophical concepts. After seeing a fluff post about the “best and worst” zodiac signs, which struck me as ridiculous, the snarky side of me just had to even out the feed dynamic.

Tarot card, deep shades of reds dominate the image.  A distinctive man with a trimmed white beard sits upon his throne. Mountains tower behind him.  He wears armor and knee high leather boots.  He is adorned in a red cloak.  The words “The Emperor, major arcana” are found on the card.
