Look to your kingdoms— I am coming for them all.

Elisabeth Hewer, from “Love Letters from Helen of Troy,” Wishing for Birds (via lifeinpoetry)

I am a jealous God.

the king is her own lionheart, she is her own god and she is her own idol. she is a golden emperor worshipped by thousands, she is a carved image limned in gold, a false messiah of a false kingdom. but still she needs her right hand, she needs her wrath, she needs the most faithful man of them all to spill blood at her altar, to battle down the strong. to cut her enemies off at the knees, if that is the only way they will kneel. the king of kings, and her deadly, victorious sword.

The Magician -  I

I have been wanting to design a Tarot deck for a long time. I have set myself the target of approx. 1 year to get all 22 of the Major Arcana down with my current commission load. I am not going to do them in order, instead I’m going to let inspiration and vibe guide each choice of card, I think this will help me stay motivated and keep a natural flow of progression. I’m also sure that in a year i’ll probably want to brush up the first few XD

I caution you as I was never cautioned:

you will never let go, you will never be satiated. You will be damaged and scarred, you will continue to hunger.

Your body will age, you will continue to need You will want the earth, then more of the earth —

— Louise Glück, from “The Sensual Life,” The Seven Ages

You cannot defeat me! I’ve lived too many lives. Ravaged entire kingdoms. I have been given powers that you could not even fathom! I will never stop. Never. I shall give this wretched world the queen it deserves!
