Weekend Forecast: 9-1 to 9-3 2017



Hello my little Tarot Tots!

It's time for another weekend tarot forecast! I haven't done this in a while so I might be a little rusty. I'm trying really hard to get back into the swing of things like I used to do. This is the Manga Tarot by Selena Lin.

Let's get to it:

Friday 9-1-2017: 7 of Swords (Reversed): This Friday is going to be mega scattered. Everything is going to go willy-nilly and you need to be prepared for all sorts of backlash. If you have a project going, you might want to put it off until tomorrow. If you do take on a project, just be prepared It's a bumpy ride. Thankfully, you will learn some sort of lesson from it. These are the things we usually do.

Saturday 9-2-2017: Ace of Swords: THIS is the day to get stuff done. We're all very motivated and it's going to be a magical day. You'll definitely want to work on yesterday's project today. It's going to be amazing. And you'll have the experience from yesterday to get it done properly.

Sunday 9-3-2017: I The Magician (Reversed): This is a bad day. Bad with a capital B. If you are still working on that project, you better learn to take it slow. Maybe that's the lesson that you had to learn the past couple of days. Maybe you are just now learning these things. That might be what is going to be slow going. Just take your time.

In recap: This weekend is going to be one where you're going to need to go as slow as you can and be patient. You'll get there but it might take a while.

Lots of love,

The Darkling Tag

Greetings my little Tarot Tots!

Today I am doing a quiz so you can get to know me a little better. Of course this is a rather gothically inclined quiz, but seeing as I am a goth and like to revel in my dark dark darkity dark-ness, I figured I would do it. So here we go:

What is your favourite candle scent? Darkest Sandalwood. It's very rich.
Do you have a favourite book? I couldn't say. I think "Paint it Black" by Voltaire or the "Goth Bible" (which is a history of the gothic subculture and very informative)
Are you a tea or coffee person? Both. Mostly tea, though.
What is your favourite perfume/cologne? I'm preferable to citrusy, fruitsy scents, but also things that are a bit musky. I don't like dainty scents.
Do you have a celebrity crush? Hmm... Pinhead from Hellraiser. Totally.
 If you could change your name to a stereotypical 90s/2000s gothy name, what would it be? I already go by a stereotypical one: Raven!
What are your top three tips for surviving hot weather while black clad? sunscreen, light fabric like a cotton or a fishnet, and hydrate, hydrate, hydrate.
What song always makes you happy (doesn't have to be a goth band?) "It's Like That" by RUN-DMC
Are you active in the arts (eg. Play an instrument, paint, write, etc)? Yap. I paint, I play a few instruments, I sew, I craft, I build.... I like to refer to myself as a #hobbyhoarder
What is your number one non-gothy hobby? uh.... crochet?

Thought Provokers:

If you could be a supernatural creature, what would it be and why? I think a Lamia. I dunno. Just thought it would be kind of neat.

What horror monster-bases super power would you have? pyrokinesis? I like fire. (Heh heh fire fire Heh)

Do you feel confident or comfortable interacting with other Goths or gothy people (online or irl)? Why or why not? Of course I'm confident about talking to other goths. Other goths understand some of my thoughts so I enjoy that!

Is there something you wish there was more of in your subculture? Less drama. Damn.

Care to share an embarrassing story related to your "darkliness"? I once told someone that they should get a tattoo and didn't notice they had a sleeve. Ugh. (does that count?)

How are you at DIY? I'm alright. I do enjoy crafting in a variety of ways.

Confessional (aka True or False):

I love watching cheese romance films. False. They make me cry and that ruins my makeup. Boo.

I ALWAYS remember to was off my makeup at night. False. Sorry.

I sleep with plushies. True! I have two mouse stuffies.

I wear non-black pyjamas most nights. True. I have several pyjamas with cats on them so I wear those. They're usually night shirts.

I think Andrew Eldrich is overrated. False.

I don't like vampires. False, but I'm particular as to which kind I like.

I don't like clubs. False! Clubs are awesome!!!

I don't enjoy graveyards. False. It's a great place to have picnics with deceased loved ones and ancestors.

Blood makes me queasy. False. Bring it on.

I'd sooner faint than pet a spider. True. I do like how they look though,

I don't like haunted houses. True, if this is about like.... scare houses. If it's about real spirits I have no issue.

I've never read Dracula. True. It's such a dry read. But it's on my to-do list.

I think "Bela Lugosi's Dead" is a long and boring song. Could go either way. True, very long. False to boring. Unless you play it on repeat for hours and hours. Then we might have problems.


So that's me. I hope that enlightens people on some things about myself.

Lots of love,

Weekend Forecast 8-4-17 to 8-6-17

Hey there my little Tarot Tots!

It's time for another round of my Weekend Forecast. Today, I am reading from Florida, but this should post as I am leaving. I cannot wait for all of this to pop up on your feed. It's all very exciting after all.

Let's dive in, shall we?

















Friday 8-4-17: 4 of Pentacles (reversed): Friday is going to be a process of a day. There's going to be a lot of people trying to get things crammed into your day. It's going to be insanely busy and it might even be materialistically busy. I don't doubt it, as I believe this weekend is tax free weekend in some places. It's definitely going to be quite the hassle.

Saturday 8-5-17: 9 of Wands (reversed): Looks like Saturday is not your day either. I see a lot of obstacles that need to be checked out. You're going to want to just give up what's stressing you out. I'm not sure what is stressing you out, but you definitely need to stop. You are draining your energy on this situation. Don't.

Sunday 8-6-17: King of Wands (reversed): You've left something until the last minute. A project? An assignment? SOMETHING!!! You need to pick THAT up and get to work. Procrastination does not help anyone's stress levels. You can do this. I have your back.

Lots of love for this weekend everyone. Be cautious.

Happy Lughnasadh!

Hey there my little Tarot Tots!

Today is a special day: It's Lughnasadh! You can also call this holiday Lammas. It is the mark of the beginning of the festival season. It is based on the name of the god Lugh, who was a sun god.

I can't say I can give you a ton of information on this holiday, it's not one of the holidays I typically celebrate much. This tends to be mostly Wiccan and neopagan people who celebrate this holiday, aside from the peoples of the Celtic area who would celebrate these holidays normally.

I just wanted to let out a small blurb to wish you all a happy harvest beginning.
