Tarot Journaling

So here lately I have been drawn to a few of my tarot and Oracle decks. I keep a rune journal that before now,I had no idea that inside the back cover was a secret pocket. I'm a bit excited about that actually. Anyway, I have two Oracle decks and at least three tarot decks. I have a fairy tarot deck which is the first ever tarot deck I ever bought. In one spread I did, the deck revealed that it is my happy childlike aspect.
I have a witches tarot deck that I have been using for the journaling of late, is my more serious, deep thought type of deck or so it revealed itself as. I have yet to use my third deck though.I've only opened it out of curiosity but haven't done any drawing with it Yet.this deck is the shadowscapes deck. I found out about this deck through a YouTube channel called MandI See.(I recommend you to go like and subscribe to her channels) the shadowscapes deck has not revealed it's teaching purpose to me yet but giving time it will.

I also have a pendulum that I have experimented with once or twice. It hasn't really spoke to me yet unlike my tarot cards but I feel like the time will come for it.

My Oracle decks are the earth magic deck and the goddess guidance deck. I was strongly pulled to the earth magic deck because I associate with the earth element the most. The goddess deck called to me because I've been feeling motherly of late.having one child and being pregnant with baby number two has made me that way :)

I keep looking online for other decks and I've come across a few that I might try to get in the near future. Tarot is addicting ❤

Self love

I tried this the other night when I was feeling overwhelmed. And it felt like a rush of relief once it was over. Its really simple. You just need two basic supplies: a lighter and a stick of rose incense.

Light the incense and visualize the smoke enveloping you in love and good feelings. Visualize the stress you have disappear with the smoke.

Do this until the incense has burned down all the way. Comment with your experience 💕

Religious tolerance

I am a big believer in having tolerance for all religions. In my opinion, all religions are just different points of view, telling the same story. We all come from the Father and Mother.why we have this need to destroy, mock, get rid of other religions that "threaten" others is absolutely ridiculous.
We all need to realize that there is no one all powerful religion. Humanity needs to stop judging and stop killing each other. If we stopped trying to hurt each other and start helping each other. No, i am not against guns because I think that even though I am talking about humanity and kindness; there are individuals that wish to harm others and we need protection from those people.
I believe myself to be spiritual and pagan and I believe that we should help heal each other.

Don't get me wrong

Ok, don't get me wrong about Christianity.I love my christian family but I hate how pushy they can be. My son hasn't even started asking questions about God yet and already his grandparents on both sides either push for him to go to church or they push a bible at him all the while telling me, not asking but telling, to read it to him. For his sake, I try to grin and bear it but I'm getting to the point of telling them to back off.
He just turned five and already owns two versions of the "my first bible".

Some people...

As a pagan I have learned that you have to have tough skin and be able to take criticism with kindness. I,however, find that I don't really have that tough skin so when i see and hear people talk badly about pagans,wiccans, it really grinds my nerves.
Most wiccans I've come to know over the internet don't tell you about the downside...no one does.but it is something you will face at least once in your life if you choose this spiritual path.the people that will ridicule you are really just afraid of you. You're outside their safe little world that they may have always known and humanity does not do well with change.especially the spiritual kind of change.
But if this is the path you truly want then just prepare for the worst is all i can tell you.if you would like to talk or share your experiences then comment below or leave me a message on my facebook page.(lady amethysta butterfly)

Dragonstone

Last night I got an itching to try sleeping with one of my stones in my hand.I could feel the power of the stone pulsing in my hand. I even actually slept better also.
I noticed that my attitude today was better and a bit more assertive.I even stood up to my own father.I just felt protected by having it with me. The stone itself is sort of spotted and it's called a dragonstone.it has protective properties to it. Its the first stone that I ordered online and it fits in the palm of my hand.I love it.I'm thinking of trying the same technique with the other three stones I have,although I'm unsure of what they are.

Differences

It's amazing the differences in just two pregnancies. For instance the first time I was scared to death of doing something wrong. And now I'm just scared of two things:  1.that the baby will be healthy and don't have glaucoma or epilepsy.  2. And that my son will not hate his younger sibling.
This is new territory for me.I was raised an only child so my trying to divide my attention is going to be a challenge.  But I'll get through it.
Prayers and candles lit,for me please.
