Tarot vs. Oracle Cards vs. Cartomancy
Cartomancy (umbrella) is divination with different types of cards in general
Tarot is a form of divination involving the random selection of cards from a specific system of symbols and meanings (That specific system being, ofc, tarot)
Lenormand is a different specific system of symbols and meanings
Cartomancy (specific) is divination with playing cards
Oracle/Oracle decks (umbrella) is basically any system outside of the specific major ones
In all of these, placement often guides meanings and different placement templates are called spreads 🙂
Let’s Practice!
Our main terms will be in bold and characteristics unique to it will be in italics.
I used Tarot and the Heirophant jumped out of the deck.
My favorite card in my Lenormand deck is the Ring.
I love to do cartomancy because playing cards are so accessible.
I love to use spreads that have placement spots for all form of cartomancy because I hate being limited to just one card system of meaningful symbols.

Alexandrian
A tradition of Wicca descended from the teachings of Alex Sanders, the "King of Witches."
Altar

Book of Shadows
A book of instructions for rituals and spells, often also containing religious text, and personal thoughts, the Book of Shadows was at first associated with the Wiccan *religion.

In some Pagan traditions, a “circle” refers to the people who gather for a ritual. When standing in a circle, all the participants are able to see each other, with no one member elevated over any other. This practice is often felt to encourage egalitarianism and community. At a ritual, a circle will be “cast” to provide a container for the energy to be raised and to denote a differentiation between the ritual space and everyday reality

Crystal Heading
An alternative or complementary therapy, crystal healing uses crystals to bring harmony and healing to the human body and mind. This is an energy-based therapy which draws on the unique vibration of each crystal to help us balance, and unblock, our own energy centers (chakras) in the body. Each crystal has its own unique vibration and energy; each cell in the human body also has its own energy, and when a crystal is brought close to the body, sensitive people can feel the energies from the crystal, and this can help to bring their own energy into balance.
Crystal Magic
All crystals have their own natural properties which you can draw on, which means they are excellent additions to charm bags, spell jars, etc.

Hex
A magic spell or charm which is intended to bring harm. To hex someone is to put them under a spell which will attract misfortune, ill health, or hardship.

Imbolc

It is celebrated on the 1st August in the Southern Hemisphere. This is a time for purification, cleansing, and planning.

The Pagan belief that the human body is holy is connected to their belief in immanent divinity.

Kindred
A kindred is a group of Heathens. This term emphasizes contemporary Heathen kinship with ancestral practitioners of Germanic and Northern European religious traditions.

Magick with this spelling was first used in the 1600’s and is an early English spelling for ‘magic’ – it has more recently been adopted to differentiate stage magic and illusion, with the very real magic associated with witchcraft.
Magic Circle
An energy field that you surround yourself with before your magical workings begin. Some people also like to cast a magic circle before meditating. The circle provides protection since you cast it with the intent of positive energies only being allowed to enter. This means that when you open yourself up to energies, you are protected from negative ones. Not only this, but it contains and amplifies your own personal energies making your magic more powerful; the circle is almost like a cauldron for brewing up powerful energies!

Ostara
Also known as Eostre *or the Spring Equinox*.

Ostara is a great time for purification spells, and spells for fresh starts, or new projects etc.
Pagan
A person who holds religious beliefs outside of the mainstream religions. Pagans believe that nature is sacred; and they connect spiritually with the earth, observing the changing of the seasons and the natural cycles of birth, growth, and death. Many Pagans worship multiple Gods and Goddesses, and some worship only Mother Earth. Pagans do not necessarily all share the same beliefs and values as each other; they follow their own spiritual path, without feeling the need to conform.
Pendulum
A weight of some kind attached to a chain or string which swings to give answers to questions. Using a pendulum is a form of dowsing, meaning you use your intuition and subconscious thoughts to understand what is happening in your life
Pentacle
The pentacle has long been used by witches as a symbol of protection; the points of the pentacle represent the five elements of earth, air, fire, water, and spirit…the five things essential to sustain life. The circle surrounding them contains and protects, and also connects the five points indicating that earth, air, fire, and spirit, are all connected.
Pentagram
A five-pointed star without the circle, a symbol of the elements.
Poppet
A doll made to represent someone in order that you can cast spells on them, or aid them, through magic.

Quarters
The four corners and/or watchtowers in a magical circle.
Querent
In divination, the person who ask questions of the reader
Rising Sign
Also known as the ascendant, refers to the zodiac sign that was ascending over the eastern horizon at the time and place you were born. It is described as the ‘mask’ of how we first come across when meeting new people or being in new situations
Ritual
While a *spell *is a set of actions to bring about a desired result, a ritual, similarly, is a set of actions to bring about a desired result, but is more involved and tends to bring religious or spiritual beliefs into the magic; this can be done in many ways, such as calling on deities, chanting, dancing, etc.
Any spell can become a ritual, by incorporating your own personal spiritual practices.
Runes
Runes originated in 4th century Scandinavia as a divinatory alphabet. In Paganism, small stones printed with runes are employed for both divination and magic. Each character is said to have a special spiritual significance, particularly when drawn in response to a question or issue
Sabbat
A sabbat is one of the eight celebrations/festivals recognised and celebrated by wiccans and many (but not all) pagans and witches. Beliefs can vary regarding the precise timing of each celebration, depending on their own religious or spiritual beliefs, and based on distinctions such as lunar phase and geographic hemisphere.
Samhain
Also known as* Hallowe’en*. One of the eight sabbats, Samhain (celebrated on the 31st of October) celebrates the thinning of the veil between our world and the spirit world. This is a time to celebrate and honor our ancestors and passed loved ones, and to communicate with them, leave offerings for them, and remember them.
Scrying
An ancient form of divination, which involves gazing into a surface such as a crystal ball, a mirror, water, or flickering flames. There are no limits to how and where and with what tools, a person may scry; perhaps they stare into the darkness, or up at the clouds, for it to form any signs and symbols they can translate…The images seen by the diviner can be fleeting, hazy, or vague, but the intuition of the diviner helps them to discern and understand the scattered, fragmented images, and translate them into something tangible.
Shadow Work
The ‘shadow’ refers to the dark side of our personalities which we repress and overlook. It is the side of us that is wounded with past traumas and impulsive emotions such as envy, greed, rage and desire. Shadow work is the practice of facing those emotions and traumas head on to be able to heal properly and balance your life.
Shaman
A person who has access to and influence over all kinds of spirits and they typically can enter into a state of trance during rituals, divination and healing so that they can interact with the spiritual realms. Shamanism originates from tribes and indigenous traditions.
Sigil
A symbol used to represent a desired outcome. Commonly created by using lettering, and condensing the lettering down to a single symbol. Sigils are charged, during their creation, with the intent of the practitioner, or witch. This can then be used in magic; etched into candles, written in salt, or herbs, sewn into poppets or charm bags, the uses of sigils are only limited by our imagination.
Skyclad
To be naked, particularly during ritual magic. Some believe that clothing interferes with our ability to connect with nature, and therefore, magic is more powerful when performed naked, and fully able to connect with the elements.
Smoke Cleansing
Smoke cleansing involves burning, herbs, woods, incense, or resins in order to rid your space of negative or stagnant energies. There are several incenses, herbs, or resins you can use depending on your desired results
Smudging
The use of incense or dried herb smoke to cleanse items or an area.
Solstice
A solstice is the point in Earth's orbit when the sun is farthest from the equator, the opposite of equinox which is when the sun is the closest to the equator. The days are longer in summer solstice and shorter during the winter solstice and both take place on a different day for the southern and northern hemispheres
So mote it be
A common way of ending a spell or ritual. Meaning ‘so must it be’, or ‘so shall it be’. Often used at the end of a spell or ritual, for example, in candle magic, as the candle burns out; while making a charm bag, as the bag is tied shut; as the final words in a spoken spell, etc.
Sour Jar
Often used as a form of revenge or retribution, a sour jar is a jar created to literally sour someone’s life. It is a jar in which you place something to represent your target, a base of vinegar, and to this you can add other items to annoy and irritate such as chilli, thorns, etc.
Spiral Dance
A Pagan ritual dance that follows a snake-like coiling pattern. A line of dancers spirals into the center, back out, and back in again. Each dancer passes face to face with all the other participants; each member of the community is seen by all. The spiral dance is often danced as the culmination of the energy-raising part of a ritual.
Talisman
A talisman is an object that brings luck or protection from harm and negative energies to the person who owns it.
Tarot
Tarot cards are used for meditation and divination by some Pagans. Tarot cards are usually elaborately illustrated using symbols and images from Western mysticism. There are many possible ways to use Tarot decks, but Pagans often lay out elaborate spreads of cards to intuitively explore personal or spiritual questions, or they may draw a single card in the morning to gain insight about the day ahead.
Theban Alphabet
Or The Witches’ Alphabet, is a writing system which has been utilized by some to disguise their words so they cannot be read and understood by anyone unfamiliar with the script. The script can be used in the same way sigils would be used, or it can be used to write an entire* Book of Shadows*; though this would only be recommended if fluent in the script, or reading your own text could become problematic.
Theology
The philosophical study of religion, typically by believers.
Theurgy
Working with spirits and/or gods in a ritual fashion to elicit spiritual or material effects.
Triple Moon
Also known as the Triple Goddess. Representing the Maiden, Mother, and Crone, and honoring each stage of the female life cycle, the triple moon symbolizes the three, united.
Voodoo
A religion deriving from African polytheism. The word can also be used for dolls or puppets that are implied by popular media as used for harm or ill intent, however, that isn’t always the case.
Wand
Traditionally made of wood (but can also be made of metal, or rock, and is often set with gemstones and crystals), a wand is a rod used to channel and direct energy, and cast protective circles. Unlike an athame, a wand has a gentler energy, which is used to invite and encourage rather than to command.
Wicca
Wicca is a religion which stems from pagan witchcraft. Not all witches are Wiccans and not all Wiccans practise witchcraft.
Wiccan Rede
The Wiccan Rede refers to the basic ethical code ‘an it harm none, do what ye will’. There are several interpretations of it which are followed by many practitioners, not just Wiccans. It is considered advice rather than a rule or commandment
Widdershins
Anti-clockwise / counter-clockwise. Used in magic to banish. For example, if making a healing broth, you would stir it counter-clockwise to banish illness. If you were making a charm bag for ‘letting go’, you would blend the herbs counter-clockwise, etc.
Witches’ Bells
The ringing of bells has long been used to clear away stagnant and unwanted energy from the home. Witches bells are a cluster of bells, designed to hang on your door as a protective charm, and ring whenever anyone enters, ensuring whoever is paying you a visit doesn’t bring negative energy with them.
Witching Hour
A time of night when witches are at their most powerful and spirits are most active. This is considered to be the time when the veil between worlds is at its thinnest. There are different beliefs as to when exactly the witching hour is; some say midnight, and others believe it is around 3am.
Yin-Yang
A Chinese philosophical symbol representing the duality of life, and how seemingly opposite or juxtaposing forces are interconnected and can complement and balance each other out.
Yule
Also known as the* Winter Solstice*. One of the eight sabbats, celebrated in December. A time when the darkness gives way to the sun, and days start to get progressively longer, Yule is a celebration of rebirth, renewal, and the continuation of life. A perfect time for candle magic, rest, and self-care.
Zodiac
The Zodiac refers to the 12-star constellations that can be found along the paths of the sun, moon and planets. You have a zodiac sign for each planet which is determined by the position of the planet in accordance with the 12 constellations

I think every other fic has a happy ending, but I make people cry with Dejame Ver the most! I wanna tally them up someday - get a percentage of that and the comments that I get in Spanish lol
8. Do you get hate on fics?
No *knocks on wood*
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
No. Have written a scene in a WIP that's sitting dormant but am very self-conscious about it in general
10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?
No crossovers!
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not to my knowledge
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
No. I daydream about translating Dejame Ver but my Spanish is more conversational (LMAO I literally got into the funniest argument with a cashier on what escabeche meant yesterday so I would also have to unpack my regionalisms lol). I'd like to expand my vocab, especially through literature, if I ever took that on
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
No. I think my writing process would drive a co-author nuts lmao
14. What’s your all time favorite ship?
Firstprince
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
i have one that I've never mentioned that's a big canon divergence that makes it so alex and henry have even more beef but it's a slow burn and would basically have to be novel length. My attention has since wandered to shorter ideas, but it's one I'd like to share someday even if it means chopping it up
16. What are your writing strengths?
I feel like I'm pretty good at writing friendships and how characters play off each other in banter. I am pretty proud of my dialogue! And I think my writing (when it's not angst) has a very welcoming and homey feeling.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
I feel like my writing can be very literal and I could stop and smell the roses more when describing things haha I can click into that mode sometimes but other times I don't have the patience to be super descriptive. I think this also translates into pacing - just wanna get the show on the road lol
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
hehehehehe (love it)
I'm hoping to figure out footnotes for my next fic especially bc there's a lot of Aztec words/concepts that are niche and I don't want to pull readers out of the fic too much when they'd have to google things
19. First fandom you wrote for?
Either Twilight or Maximum Ride
20. Favorite fic you’ve written?
Dejame Ver is a pride and joy, and readers' reactions to it still make me all soft and mushyyyy. I've gotten a tiny bit jaded about it bc my family is now a shitshow BUT I try not to let that ruin it for me!
Witchy WIP is gonna be right up there because I feel like it is just an explosion of my creativity!!! I truly went fucking nuts writing it
Tagging @sherryvalli @kiwiana-writes @suseagull04 @cricketnationrise @historicallysam @xthelastknownsurvivorx and anyone else that would like to share more about themselves!

Tarot
I love tarot, and I love learning about tarot with other people. I'm putting together a bunch of posts for absolute beginners (including things I wish someone had told me when I first got into tarot), which can be found under learning tarot.
If you have questions about tarot specifically or divination in general, or a particular subject you'd like me to post about, or something you'd like to talk with me about, send me an ask and I'll do what I can!
I also post tarot aesthetic pics.
Aesthetic
I do not post anything created by AI (as all content in these content-generators is stolen). If you see something on my blog you think is AI, please send me an ask and let me know!
All the pics posted by this blog are free use (most are from pixabay and pexels), and are therefore available for any use that isn't monetized, including other aesthetic posts, moodboards, etc. Go nuts!
Posts reblogged from others will be tagged R.
Aesthetic pics can be found separated by subject; all aesthetic pics together are under (just guess) aesthetic.
General
Posts specific to the blog itself, including the full images I've used for my banner and icon, can be found under leslieblog.
Answered asks can be found under (surprising everyone) answered asks.
All posts created by me, regardless of content, are tagged op.
If you're looking for something that isn't in one of the regular tags (like a specific tarot card), you can go to the blog main page and use the search bar in the upper left.
Tags Masterlist - common tags alphabetically
aesthetic | animals | answered asks | architecture | art | Aquarian tarot deck | autumn | bees | black | blue | candles | cats | cauldrons | chalices | coins | colored candles | colored smoke | court cards | cups | creatures | crystals | crystal balls | daily tarot | death | death decay disintegration desiccation | dogs | disability | dried herbs | dried flowers | flowers | gods and deities | green | Hellenic paganism | Hinduism | houseplants | incense | insects | jars | lava | learning tarot | leslieblog | lightning | major arcana | minor arcana | moon | mountains | mushrooms | nature | Norse paganism | op | owls | paganism | pentacles | pentagrams | plants | prayer | purple | queer | queer aesthetic | queer pride | rainbows | red | Rider-Waite tarot deck | rods | snow | sage | smoke | smoke cleansing | snakes | skulls | Slavic paganism | sun | sun worship | swords | tarot | tarot aesthetic | tarot cards | tarot vocab | trees | vocab | volcanoes | wands | worship | winter | witchy aesthetic | yellow

Magic vs Magick
It's that time of year again (apparently!)
Magic: This includes spellcasting, circle casting, imbuement, charging, and all activities related to the movement of energy to achieve a specific result - magic-making. Different Witches have different ways they like to describe their magic - whether it be the manipulation of energy alongside physical spell items, or performing a piece of folk magic according to oral tradition, magic is when the magic-user uses personal power, drawn power, and/or the power around them to affect change using non-mundane techniques, including those used in witchcraft.
Magick (with a K): This usually specifically refers to ceremonial magick, or High Magick. Whereas performing a candle ritual for protection is lower-case m magic, magic performed according to the rules and rituals of High Magick is denoted as Magick. You may already be using some of these practices in your witchly routine: The Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram is of High Magick, and many of my own Esbat traditions come from High Magick, such as formal circle casting with a wand. Many Witches take variations and cues from all types of magic, including High Magick/ceremonial magick, to use in their own personal tradition.
I use the magick with a K definition in my username a) because "theoryofmagic" was taken *cue laughter*, but more importantly b) my focus/understanding of, specifically, magical theory and spellcraft comes primarily from Western Esoterica and those very High Magick fundamentals.

Petition to rename "black magic", "dark magic" , and associated terms to something like "banefull magic" or "ill intent magic". I hate the 'white/light = good' and 'black/dark = bad' associations that currently exist. It's undoubtedly been expressed better many times, but those associations reenforce racist ideas. I'm still somewhat a baby witch, especially in terminology, and if anyone comes up with a more accurate term than "banefull magic" or "ill intent magic" please let me know! Please feel free to reblog and add your own (respectful) thoughts!

a note on epithets*
In a recent reading, I found a surprising twist of vocabulary similar to the miasma-vs-lyma debate that went on here a year or so ago. And thus, I learned a new word.
According to this article (and those articles that it references), there is a convoluted difference between the term epithet when we speak of Greek religion and epiklesis.
To make a long story short, this is the difference: An epithet is a poetic title, whereas an epiklesis is a title for the purpose of invocation.
It’s not quite that clear cut-- the article explains that not everybody agrees on which is which, but it seems that, while there is no definitive consensus, opinion on terminology seems to at least learn the directly bolded above.
This isn’t as world-shattering as the miasma/lyma issue, but I think it’s an important piece of vocab given the debate between what is religious media and what is non-religious entertainment as well as for discussion of UPG.

обо мне
Привет! Меня зовут джей. If you are reading this, I am shocked you stumbled across this tiny sideblog, and delighted. I am learning the very early basics of Russian as an adult student, utilizing a few books and Duolingo as my steps into learning my first-ever second language. I have a tiny bit of background in Spanish (took Spanish 1 + 2 for my degree path) but never really dedicated time to learning like I have for Russian. I have been an on-and-off student of Russian for longer than I’d like to admit, especially compared to how far I’ve gotten so far. This side blog is my attempt to collect memes, vocab lists, and practice.
I am 32 years old, non-binary, use she/they pronouns, and my main blog ( @magpieslocket ) is dedicated to witchy shit, tarot, and art. My academic history is a little of everything, undergrad BFA in Studio Art with a dash of Engineering by way of my Associate Degree. I am hoping to go back for more undergrad Engineering and maybe formalize my Russian education by taking a few semesters of it along side.
I am more than happy to talk, send me an ask.
