I made a pocket altar for myself this time 🥰 This is an altar to creativity (and creative audacity)

The images are printed and glued to card stock so I can remove them and replace them as I am inspired by more artists. (They’re held in place with embroidery floss)

The two side panels are Frida Kahlo and Prince. This is a hand sewn pocket altar made of red felt, rainbow-colored batik fabric, and a variety of embroidery

A spread based on a quote from Joan of Arc, "I am not afraid. I was born to do this."

Card 1: What is at the root of your fear?
Card 2: What is a strength you can tap into to get you through?
Card 3: How can you nurture yourself as you face your fears?

What does my Inner Artist need this week? Perspective and patience

Sit in the liminal space with your Inner Artist. There is something new waiting for you if you can give up the idea that you have to choose from what's on offer right now.

Slow down. Observe. Be curious.

I've been using tarot to support my social justice efforts. This spread helped me with where to put my energy, what to let go of, & what to accept to move on. The spread could work for any difficult situation.

I also made a short video to walk you through it: youtube.com/shorts/PkoVR...

I've been working with my Inner Rebel a lot these days (I live in the USA). I wanted to share a spread that gave me a transformative reading about who my Inner Rebel is & how I can work with her.

Keep up the good fight, everyone!

This tarot spread answers the question, "Who is my Inner Rebel?" This spread uses four cards. Lay the cards in pairs: Strength and Weakness, and Light and Shadow.

And two more #tarot spreads inspired by Severance
A spread titled, "Do it, Seth!" The image is of Irving B. yelling "Do it, Seth" to Mr. Milkshake. Card 1: What do I know to be true? Card 2: What is stopping me from taking action? Card 3: What do I need to let go of? A spread based on a quote from the fictional self-help book, "The You You Are", "Our job is to taste free air. Your so-called boxx may own the clock that taunts you from the wall, but, my friends, the hour is yours." Card 1: How can I focus on the present moment? Card 2: What does my Inner Rebel need? Card 3: How can I liberate myself?

Bring your Inner Artist into your daily activities. Inner artists are with us always-not just when we’ve set aside time for arts & crafts. (Though you should set some time aside for your arts & crafts this week too 🥰)

My personal card of the year is The Devil. This is the spread I'll use this year for my monthly readings. I thought it might be helpful to share!

This is a 4-card spread. The positions are: Rebellion, Mischief, Shadow, and Liberation Rebellion: A message from my Inner Rebel Mischief: Where can I introduce more mischief into my life? Shadow: What shadow can I bring to light? (How does this shadow connect to fear, shame, and control?) Liberation: What can I liberate?

I shared a protection spell on my TikTok and thought folks here might find it useful. I use art in my workings, but as you can see, you don’t have to be a good artist to be an art witch 😆 www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8FGgb7b/

A protection spell on a pieces of paper. At the center is a human figure surrounded by concentric black and red circles, surrounded by the repeated written phrase, “You are protected by the strength of love.”
