hey do you like books? do you like knowing the future or understanding what the fuck is going on in your brain? then help me practice stichomancy! it's the 3000 yr old practice of picking random passages from books and interpreting their meaning in order to diviniate. reply/ask/dm me a question or something you're looking for guidance on and i will diviniate the shit out of what's happening in your life.
Stichomancy – by books: line or lines of verse divination.
Stoicheomancy – specified elementary divination which is using specifically Homer’s works such as the Iliad, Odyssey, or the Aeneid, but it may also have been used to refer to the Bible, Quran or Virgil’s writings as well although this is up for debate.
This is a fun and easily customized method of divination. It’s divination through books.
Take ANY Book of Your Choice! Pick a Favorite.
Flip it open and point at a passage.

What Does It Mean to You? What do you see and feel that could be significant in that passage to You?
I answer a wide variety of questions! For the most part, I commonly answer relationship/love, future spouse, self-related, and career questions. I do not answer health-related questions, death questions, and typically don't answer 18+ questions.
TURNAROUND
The turnaround time for readings is about 1-3 days, although as of currently (6/6/23), readings are primarily being delivered by/on the weekends. I am a college student so there may be periods where I will be more busy than other days, but for the most part, my turnaround time is very short.
My timezone is EST (USA) for reference purposes.
TYPES OF DIVINATION I OFFER
There are a few of types of divination I am able to offer, so if there is something specific you'd like for me to use, please let me know. Sometimes, I do offer different types or more experimental types.
Tarot & Oracle Cards
Intuition
Shufflemancy
Stichomancy
Charms
+ Any type of experimental divination you may be interested in (ex: my random pokemon readings)
PRICES
1 Question $5
One question of your choice answered with tarot (or other form of divination).
Topic Package $15
If you have several questions about one particular topic such as future spouse questions or about your career, this package allows you to ask 5-6 questions at a discounted rate and is geared directly towards your specific topic/question.
All questions include additional shufflemancy. They are self-interpreted but sometimes I include notes if needed.
LENGTH + DELIVERY
One-question readings can range from three paragraphs to two pages, depending on the question. More complicated or detailed readings tend to range 3+ pages. All of my readings tend to be very long so if you don't like reading, you might want to request a shorter reading or find a different reader <;3
Readings will be delivered through Tumblr messages, email, or by image upload. Typically they are delivered through Tumblr unless they are very long, but emailed readings may always be requested regardless of length (all readings are typed through Google Docs before delivery).
If you need it uploaded in a dyslexic-friendly or screen-reader-friendly font (or any other accessibility changes) please let me know & I'll be glad to make the adjustment. They're typically just written in Arial 11pt font.
PAYMENT
Payment is primarily done through paypal, but I can also accept cashapp, venmo, kofi, and etsy.
REVIEWS & TESTIMONIALS
If you'd like some reviews for my previous completed readings on Tumblr, check my feedback tag! If you previously purchased a reading and would like to leave feedback (all feedback is welcome), feel free to send it through asks! Anon feedback is 100% okay.
I offer tarot and oracle readings priced at £40-50 per question, depending on the complexity of the issue. The querent can contact me by DMing me here, and explaining their issues to me or simply messaging me their questions. I will then perform a write-up of the reading and send it to the querent via email in a pdf format usually within 24-72 hours. Payments are to be made via PayPal of Ko-Fi.
The majority of my clients often come to me for spiritual or occult questions, but I have also performed readings on career issues or romantic queries. In most cases, my reading will be a combination of tarot with a few extra oracle cards, and will most likely include me scrying the tarot cards for further insight. Likewise, depending on the case, I may also include an extra stichomancy for further clarification and give suggestions of spells for the clients to potentially perform to aid them in their issues. Astrology and fixed stars horary (as per the methods pioneered by Sasha Ravitch) may also be used if there is a timing associated with the issue at hand.
The decks I use are:
Thoth Tarot
Rider Waite Tarot
Edmund Dulac Tarot
The Tarot of the Greek Magical Papyri
Earth and Bone Oracle
Supra Oracle
Unless the querent specifies which deck(s) they want, I will pick whichever I feel is suitable.
Some testimonials are below the cut:
A review from Lisa Pouncer
“As someone who has been making a concerted study of the tarot and various other divination methods for number of years, I maintain that there will always be times when, no matter one's own skill and experience, it is advisable to consult another reader. Often we can find ourselves too close to a situation, too emotionally invested, to read the cards accurately for ourselves without bias.This is how I found Ivy, a recommendation from a practitioner I greatly respect, and I am very grateful for that recommendation. To say Ivy's readings have impressed me is an understatement. They are delivered with swiftness and express themself with a clarity and forceful elegance rare among tarot readers, as well as being perceptive to the extreme. This is a reader truly plugged in to the divinatory current. Ivy's readings have helped me navigate two particularly emotional life decisions over the past year, and have allowed me to move forward with a certainty of step I would not have had otherwise. I cannot recommend their work highly enough and will be seeking their consultation again in the future.”
A review from McCalla Ann / SaturnVox:
“Thank you immensely for this reading. I am very in awe of the power of your visionary channel. Truly, a strong gift in you, as you even scryed a card and message I had been getting in my own spreads which was separate from the tangible cards you had initially pulled. As a fellow reader and spirit worker, it has always been important for me to stand alongside others dedicated to their practice and be involved in co-creative curious investigations of the mysteries with their spirits when I need my own double checkings and grounding. This is something I think we all need. After talking with you for a while, I came to feel, truly, that you were a person who I could trust to help act as an anchor as I take brave steps forward off to sea, and your reading still kind of blew me out of the water a bit. Even more so than the way you read cards I want to emphasize the peace and clarity that the messages you channeled, specifically, gave me. The stichomancy was incredibly profound, in ways that are perhaps too private for me to explain publicly, however, it should be emphasized that you have given me a deep gift with this reading and I am truly grateful.”
I'm wondering, how does a pick three YouTube video work? Like, how does YouTube tarot work? Does it become different since it's not one person? Like does it become stichomancy at that point?
You mean pick a card videos on Youtube? It's simple but you have to remember a few things
The readings are general. Sometimes the pile you chose can resonate fully or have just one sentence there which feels like you needed to hear it.
Not all readers will resonate with you, so it takes a bit time to find the ones you match with.
Even if you find a reader whose readings resonate, not every single video from them will have a card or a message for you.
Sometimes the reading or none of the available piles resonates. It's OK, just skip it.
Then the most important one and this is something everyone needs to remember with ALL readings, the private ones made specifically for them included; if it doesn't feel right, then it is right, and you should ignore that message. Trust your one feelings.
The videos Youtube readers do all have a theme. Check the theme of the video and then pick one of the piles which feels good to you. Piles available can range from 2 to 10, typically there's like 5 or so.
I've been listening to the pick a card videos a lot when I draw. From all the readers and piles over the year, I've paid attention to certain patterns; what topics are repeated? What messages are repeated? What elements are repeating themselves from a reading to another? Is there something which is the same I have heard from my own cards recently or repeatedly?
There are many, many readers out there! Some which I know, who are famous or who update often are:
TarotGenix (a very brand new channel but looks promising)
White Feather Tarot
The Spirit has its way to deliver the messages you need to hear - albeit buying a reading from a reader is always the best option, as then it's a custom made, just for you, and not some general video out there :3

I've re-opened paid readings, with a few new offerings. Currently I offer card, spindle, coffee cup, stichomancy, & candle wax readings!

Please feel free to message me with any questions you might have about my readings! By purchasing a reading from me, you help me to help you & ensure there is a fair exchange of resources so that I can continue offering these services for the benefit of others atop my main work(s). 🧸🍓🍯
Vibe checks are closed! Thank you to everyone who sent one in and gave feedback about their readings. I'm so glad some of you got what you needed to hear and others were...startled, to say the least. And I'm glad I was wrong on a few.
I might open them again in a few months with different options if people are interested. Still completely free! I almost have a collection of divination methods to use from geomancy to stichomancy, playing cards and possibly runes.
This was a fun way to pass the weekend! Have a good one and don't walk under ladders. That's just good safety practice, not any kind of superstition.
Kingdom Hearts - The Entity and it's Correspondences
So, you wanna work with the big entity itself, eh?
Kingdom hearts is an entity to behold, made of the hearts of people who died and went on to form it. It's a conglomerate entity. It's origins are unknown as of now.
Seeing as it takes on the texture of the moon, many of the moon's correspondences would work for this entity.
It likes to speak through divinary methods. The methods I recommend are tarot, cartomancy, stichomancy, and shufflemancy.
When I first reached out to Kingdom Hearts, it was in a time of uncertainty and not very formal and it was still very kind. When reaching out, you can be as formal as you wish and use the necessary protections and precautions.
This post is mostly unverified personal gnosis (UPG)
i dont rlly know how to request stuff im socially incompetent but
may i please get a shiftimancy (? i already forgot how to spell it. the shufflemancy but with books and also u choose) for this question (also i have no idea what an opened ended yes or no question is, it doesn't make much sense to me? how can a yes or no question be open ended?) but anyways could i get the uh book-a-mancy on what my realationship with kunikuzushi was like? i remember seeing him as a brother and it being pretty good but i cant remember.
okay i just opened my eyes to see this and i’m on my phone and i’m sorry but this was very very confusing for me
firstly, a stichomancy- it’s for a non-yes/no question. aka an open ended question, but more open ended- stichomancies and shufflemancies alike can be very unspecific depending on what comes up in the reading.
second, i do recognize the name kunikuzushi- are you from genshin impact? who would you have been? i think knowing who you’re kin with is is important in reading for you!
and thirdly, i don’t get many requests here anyway but i do have examples on my old blog of designated tarot & oracle spreads for relationships- my tarot spread is a favorite of mine. i could edit this post later or answer another ask with links to those later today if you’d like? unfortunately i’m in a car passenger seat rn- unless you’d still like it to be a stichomancy, in which case i gotta get who you are and confirm whether that’s genshin or not
might i also recommend screenshots or keeping the carrd open in a browser/different tab for referencing? just a personal trick i use because my memory can also be pretty bad and tumblr’s desktop ask sender is a nightmare so i tend to use my phone for that
lastly, sorry if any of this sounds upset or anything- i promise you it’s because i pretty much rolled over in bed to see this first thing and i would’ve let it sit for. a while had i not done it right now- point being, i’m not mad, just sleepy!
