Is it a stone? Someone gifted a couple of pendulums to me and both are stone: one rose quartz and one jadeite. I have had a silver goddess figure forever that I have used as a pendulum because she had pointy feet and seemed to be perfectly suited.

This deck is next on my list - It's dust2onyx: a melanated deck. It was originally a kickstarter campaign and Arwen turned me on to it. The entire deck is of black women goddess archetypes and was created by an amazing woman of color. It's one of the most beautiful decks I've ever seen!!

A little fairy dropped a bunch of witchy stuff on my doorstep today. The box included candles, incense, socks. The gorgeous Chrysalis tarot deck, a set of magic spell cards, and a set of oracle cards. I've been playing around all night!!!!
I also got my copy of Scott Cunningham's book in the mail. It was a good Wiccan day indeed! |

NICE!! I have several Scott Cunningham books and really enjoy them.
I've been fighting the urge to run wild on my Amazon wish list because I have a TON of books on it but I'm trying to scale down and keep my book habit in check. I made a deal with myself that I won't buy another book until I get through the 10 I have stacked up in my "to be read" pile. BUT...I did totally wimp out on my deal with myself and picked up a copy of "Witches of America" by Alex Mar the other day. It's a memoir but really centers around the authors study of modern witchcraft for journalistic purposes while also delving into practice herself. It gets really good reviews. If you are interested, Candycoated, I will totally pass it on to you when I'm done with it!

Does anyone here make their own stick incense? I have a bunch of neutral sticks made for making your own but I got some handmade incense from a friend and they smoked so badly I couldn't use them.
Wondering if there is a trick? I've read mixed messages on the net so hoping for some real-time experience. I can made gorgeous cone incense all day long that burn clean and smell amazing but the sticks kinda suck!

I have a set of MotherPeace cards. When my daughter became an adult, I gave her a set as well. It was a rite of passage for us.
My daughter now is a very talented, skilled medium and does readings every week at our local alternative spirituality shop. She also ghost hunts and has done several house/land "clearings". In fact, she went in after it was "cleared" by a famous tv show paranormal celebrity who featured it on her tv show. I guess she didnt get it all out and so they needed someone else...so my kid and two others went in and did another clearing. This time, it worked completely. I am an intuitive reader. I pick up on things beyond the cards as I read. I have had several decks but motherpeace is my only deck I really use. I dont read men. Its just too hard for me. For them, I simply read THEM.

Has anyone ever used regular playing cards to read, or had their fortunes read with playing cards? I just got curious after a friend told me she went to a lady that used both tarot and regular playing cards. I need to google this!

This is a totally unhelpful answer but no, I haven't ever used or had a reading done for me with regular playing cards. I've always been curious though...

Hi,
Yes, I've heard of it and seen it done. I'm including a webpage that explains it best. https://exemplore.com/fortune-divina...-Playing-Cards The difference between the Tarot deck and the Playing cards is that in the playing cards you don't have the top 22 Major Arcana. You only have the 4 sets of Pentacles = Diamonds, Spades = Swords, Clubs = wands , Hearts = cups and the Fool which is the Joker. Have fun! |

When I was a kid, my mom had a friend that only read playing cards. When I was a teen, she read them for me and I found her to be quite accurate. Personally, I think she had some sort of psychic ability.

I finally got (well, it's at JD's house so technically HE got it) the much long-awaited Dust II Onyx: A Melanated Deck by Courtney Alexander and I cannot WAIT to get my hands on it.
If you haven't seen it, she's a brilliant artist: ![]()

I got three new decks at Christmas. The Modern Spellcaster's Tarot, which is beautiful and has Wiccan, gay, and poly imagery. The other two decks I got are Oracle decks, the Oracle of mermaids and Oracle of unicorns. I've been having fun with the decks. I've been pulling my daily cards from the Modern Spellcaster's. It has a good vibe and seems to be on point. |

OMFG!
So, my final report on the Dust II Onyx deck: THIS IS THE MOST BADASS TAROT DECK I HAVE EVER OWNED.S The artwork is even more stunning in person and the box is super amazing quality and has a magnetic closure. Inside is a HARDBACK book of card meanings and the book on its own is a work of art. The artist, Courtney, clearly put a ton of work into her research and the book is just beautiful and personal and high-quality. The cards are a nice size and are raised gold-leaf in some places. The colors are vivid and saturated beyond anything I've ever seen and basically every aspect of this deck is sumptuous and delicious and just beyond fucking amazing. If you have ever considered saving your coins for an extra-special deck, I cannot recommend this one enough. Courtney also has a program for her deck where you can donate to a fund to help women of color who are card readers be able to afford a deck. I feel that this may be the most important deck of modern time, both culturally and spiritually. I am moved beyond belief to be able to own it and learn from it. /gush
