1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,480 Speaker 1: And then there are sometimes when you feel the energy 2 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:05,680 Speaker 1: where you're like, I'm getting the funk out of here. Yeah. 3 00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:08,440 Speaker 1: But like for me with that old lady and the photo, 4 00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:12,240 Speaker 1: it changed my life because I really like started thinking 5 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:14,680 Speaker 1: to myself. I was like, Okay, if we can see 6 00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:18,759 Speaker 1: her in this photo, what if she was living in 7 00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 1: a completely different time period than us, And what if 8 00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 1: she looked in the mirror and was like, oh, I'm 9 00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:44,919 Speaker 1: seeing three blunt girls. Welcome to Kesha and the Creepys. 10 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 1: Today we are welcoming very special guest, Bree Luna the Hoodwich. 11 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 1: Thank you so much for being here, Thank you for 12 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: coming out, Thank you so much for having me. I'm 13 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 1: so excited. I'm really excited to talk to you because 14 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 1: there's so many things. I was checking out. Your amazing 15 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:07,680 Speaker 1: nail aren't which mine are so tragic that I painted 16 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:09,760 Speaker 1: them this morning because I was like, I can't show 17 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:14,039 Speaker 1: up with these nails, They're just like too sad. And 18 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: I was reading about witchcraft and I've been really interested 19 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 1: in witchcraft since I was a little kid, and I 20 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,839 Speaker 1: just wanted from your perspective, what makes you a witch? 21 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: Because I feel in my heart like I'm a witch, 22 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: but I don't know if I'm doing the necessary steps 23 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: to be a witch. Well, I think that, um, you know, 24 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 1: just culturally, when we think of the word which and 25 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 1: we think of what that looks like, I think that 26 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 1: there are so many common misconceptions of witchcraft in general, 27 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 1: and like what a witch is and what a witch 28 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 1: isn't so first and foremost, growing up, I have two 29 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: grandmothers where I gained most of my spiritual practice from. Um, 30 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: you have hereditary, which is you have people who are 31 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 1: just solitary practitioners. So I think that just in general, 32 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: the word which you know obviously um it's it can 33 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 1: be like this big umbrella because the witch has always 34 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: existed in every continent, every country, Uh you know what 35 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 1: I mean. So generally, most people's perception of a which 36 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 1: is like an old haggard woman with like a big 37 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: nose with the ward on it. And it's like, I 38 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 1: don't look like that. Neither do my grandmother's neither do 39 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 1: anyone you know that I know that practices. But I 40 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 1: think that just overall, as an umbrella, um, the which 41 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: has always existed in this archetype of just like this wild, 42 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:46,799 Speaker 1: fierce woman in rebellious woman, this rebellious energy um has 43 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: always existed. So to be a witch and to claim 44 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: that for yourself that can be in magical practice, or 45 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,640 Speaker 1: you know, it could be just about just energetically like 46 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,639 Speaker 1: how you feel. And I think that that alien has 47 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: always just innately been with a lot of us. You know, 48 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 1: when I hear the word which I feel empowered and 49 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:14,920 Speaker 1: I feel dangerous, but in the best way. Like, what 50 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: do you do when people are like flippant or disrespectful 51 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: about it? How do you deal with that? I'm generally, 52 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: I feel like in my own practice and just who 53 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 1: I am as a person, it's not really my job 54 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: to convince anyone of you know, magic and witchcraft or 55 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: any of those things. So people are going to have 56 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: their own ideas of what a witch is and what 57 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 1: a which isn't. And that's even something that's within our 58 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 1: own community where you know, there's certain people who practice differently. 59 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: And I'm like, you know, when you think about it 60 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: as a historical and just a cultural context, you know, 61 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 1: there's all types of magic throughout the world. So someone 62 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 1: like my grandmother wouldn't say like, oh, hey, I'm a witch, 63 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, like's not flagrant about you know, 64 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 1: her practice. And I think that for a lot of 65 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: people of color, black people especially um, you know, our 66 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: beliefs in our ways, our spiritual practices in our ways 67 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 1: were taken away from us. And so I think that 68 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,359 Speaker 1: there's a huge resurgence right now of a lot of 69 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:23,919 Speaker 1: women of color, especially like black and brown women, reclaiming uh, 70 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: magical parts of themselves, parts of our ancestry, and reconnecting 71 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 1: back into our power and what that means. Can you 72 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: tell me about your grandmother? Yes, So I have two grandmothers. 73 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:42,039 Speaker 1: One is from New Orleans and she also moved to Texas. 74 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:45,280 Speaker 1: She practiced who do um. And then I have a 75 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: Mexican grandmother who practiced anthia. So that's a whole different 76 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 1: you know, spiritual practice, tradition. Um. So both of these 77 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: things are like in my bloodline, within my own lineage. 78 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 1: And it was interesting because for me growing up as 79 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: a little girl, you know, when you're interested in like 80 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 1: witchcraft and like, you know, magical things. I've always been 81 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 1: like a very psychically sensitive person, even as a child. 82 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,799 Speaker 1: So I when I heard the word which I didn't 83 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 1: think of like my grandmother's you know what I mean. 84 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: I always thought I was like the pickle. No, like 85 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: the scary wizard, you know, a wizard of Oz. I'm like, well, 86 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 1: my grandma don't look like that. But as I got older, 87 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 1: you know, and you learn about like um, just like 88 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 1: working with spirit and working with candle magic and going 89 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: to the book like things like that, then you're kind 90 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: of like, oh, well, my grandma you know, like she 91 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 1: does this or you know, this doesn't seem like an 92 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 1: alignment with a lot of you know, Catholic or Christian 93 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,160 Speaker 1: type of things, Like I want like what are they 94 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 1: up to? So to me, I was just like, you know, 95 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:54,839 Speaker 1: it sparked that curiosity where you knew that there were 96 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: like slightly like there was some things that were just 97 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: like a little bit different than what would be the 98 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: norm of most like Christian or like you know Catholic 99 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: people's households. So um with them, you know, their practices 100 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,559 Speaker 1: obviously were still very hush hush. It was very quiet. 101 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 1: It wasn't something that you outwardly just talked about. There 102 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: were just things that you did, you know what I mean. 103 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 1: For me, I wasn't learning these practices from my grandmother's 104 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:28,720 Speaker 1: from books or the internet and stuff like that. Um, 105 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:30,480 Speaker 1: but like I was saying, like just being like a 106 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 1: very psychically sensitive child. When I became maybe in like 107 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: fifth grade, you know, when you're like a younger girl, 108 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:43,239 Speaker 1: like that adolescent age, I really was like super into 109 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: like the paranormal, and I love like learning about like 110 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,720 Speaker 1: the occult and like goes for me, like with the 111 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: stuff that I found, because we didn't really have like 112 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,839 Speaker 1: I don't know, like it wasn't such, it wasn't as accessible, um, 113 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,040 Speaker 1: so you would have to go to like a library 114 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: or like a book store. So I would go to 115 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: like every book store that I could go to and 116 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 1: like go to the New age section and like look 117 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 1: up occult, you know, like Wicca, and and I'm like, 118 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 1: but this doesn't really you know, like looking into like Wicca, 119 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 1: It's like that didn't really speak to me because I'm 120 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: not like European, you know what I mean. So it 121 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 1: was like they're all like very eurocentric um practices. Not 122 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 1: to take away from that, because I learned, you know, 123 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 1: so much in terms of like a historical context of 124 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 1: like witchcraft and magic. But I think that when I 125 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: the older that I got, I got closer into connecting 126 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: back to my own roots, in my own cultural identity 127 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 1: with being a black woman, with being a Mexican woman. 128 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 1: Um in really embracing and learning more from you know 129 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: what I mean, like your heritage, what it sounds like, 130 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: and in your bloodline and the hereditary energy that comes 131 00:07:55,520 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 1: with any lineage. Like I know my mom, she's convinced 132 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: she's an alien. I swear to you, she's a pisces. 133 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: We're all okay, But so for me, it's not that crazy. 134 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: It's not actually crazy at all. When she's talking to 135 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 1: a tree and like I'll be like, Okay, I'm gonna 136 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: talk to the tree and give it a hug. Like 137 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 1: that's so normal to me because that's what I grew 138 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 1: up around. And we speak to animals as if they're people. 139 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: So I'm not really sure what you would call that. 140 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 1: It's just really nature in tune with nature. And I 141 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 1: think that embracing like nature too is something that really 142 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 1: is a huge part of witchcraft. And I mean that 143 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:46,079 Speaker 1: is I mean embracing the cycles of nature, embracing change 144 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: and all of those things go want to you know, 145 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 1: our hand in hand. And even if you don't call 146 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,079 Speaker 1: yourself a witch or a spiritual you know what I mean, 147 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:59,599 Speaker 1: It's like it's just it's within all cultures, like that Paganism. 148 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 1: So before there was like Christianity and this, you know 149 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 1: what I mean, like the Balticism, all that stuff. You 150 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: can go to any continent on the continent on the 151 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 1: world and it's like from Europe to South America to Africa. 152 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 1: You know, it's like you're always going to find the healer, 153 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 1: the which, the shaman, the you know what I mean, 154 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 1: Like we've always existed and it's culturally just it's within everyone, 155 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,839 Speaker 1: it is. And for a large part from reading about 156 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,199 Speaker 1: this more recently, because I actually had time to sit 157 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: down and read a book for the first time in 158 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:39,199 Speaker 1: about a decade the past year, women in a large 159 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 1: part have been written out of the history of shamanism, 160 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: of powerful roles, and it really made me think about 161 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: why why that is. And it's because most of history 162 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,680 Speaker 1: has been written by men, and it's been rewritten by men. 163 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 1: It's been rewritten by white men. So a lot of 164 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: women and women of color specifically just written out of history. 165 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: And when you think of which is, I think of 166 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: women being punished or burned at the stakes. In my mind, 167 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: it made me a quate being a woman questioning standing 168 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: up for something and maybe believing in something else. All 169 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:24,680 Speaker 1: of those things potentially are going to get you killed, 170 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 1: and like, how dare you? So? I do think in 171 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 1: this lifetime I've done past life aggressions where in my 172 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 1: past life I've been told that I was burned at 173 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: the stake for doing just that, questioning, causing just causing 174 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 1: discomfort in a society that is run by men, and 175 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: women are supposed to be very passive and accepting of 176 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 1: how it is. And that's why I was really excited 177 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 1: to talk to you, because I'm still kind of grasping 178 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 1: the idea of what a witch means and it is. 179 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 1: It's so different in every different culture as well well. 180 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,720 Speaker 1: I mean, it is something I think just culturally it 181 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,839 Speaker 1: depends on who you're asking, you know, because you can 182 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 1: find practitioners from around the world and around the globe. 183 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:17,319 Speaker 1: And I think that I've spoken, you know, at multiple 184 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 1: like conventions and things, you know, like a schools at 185 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 1: n y U and all of these things, and I 186 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 1: think that like it is important. I went to an 187 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: esoteric book conference. I was the only woman of color there. 188 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: There was just literally nothing but men, predominantly white men 189 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: um and a few of women. And I went to 190 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,679 Speaker 1: this book conference and I remember just like listening to 191 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,839 Speaker 1: a couple of the lectures and I just at the end, 192 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 1: I just like raised my hand and I was just like, 193 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: you know, like, well, where do women of color and 194 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: you know, black witches and where it is our spirituality 195 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 1: fit into this narrative and to this story. And I'm 196 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: like thinking to myself, like why am I the only 197 00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 1: like woman of color? You're like, this is like it 198 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: was crazy, and I was like I know that I 199 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 1: can't be like the only one. And so initially, like 200 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 1: when I started my website, The Hood, which there were 201 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 1: not other sources at that time doing it, like how 202 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 1: I was, you know, and it was like I love fashion, 203 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 1: you know if you know, you know those alreadies like 204 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: I love nail or I love beauty.

You know. I went to 208 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:32,079 Speaker 1: so many moon ceremonies and pagan you know, it was 209 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 1: like very like crunchy, very granola, and I'm just like, al, 210 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: that is not me, Like that isn't you know, like 211 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: that's not my thing. It's like, yes, I love like 212 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:43,559 Speaker 1: moon ceremonies, but like I just didn't fit in because 213 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 1: everyone's like super green juice and I'm like, but I 214 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: like whiskey, and I like, you know, I like whiskey 215 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:55,679 Speaker 1: and kombucha. Yeah, like you can do both. So I 216 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 1: just wanted to create a space, especially as a woman 217 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 1: of color, like where I've felt welcomed more than anything. 218 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 1: It's like I just wanted a space where, you know, 219 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: I could have community and like, no matter what level 220 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 1: you were at, you know, if you could you were 221 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 1: a beginner of just learning about the cycles of the moon. 222 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:18,959 Speaker 1: I love astrology, putting real information in a very digestible 223 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: way for just the novice or even someone who was advanced. 224 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 1: I wanted it to feel inclusive and not like everyone 225 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 1: is excluded.

Because there are some people who are like 488 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:19,959 Speaker 1: shut the hell up, like that's not what I do, 489 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 1: Like you know what I mean, Like that's not how 490 00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:26,440 Speaker 1: I define my practice. So I think it's so deeply personal. 491 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:31,399 Speaker 1: And if you're not you know, initiated into a specific tradition, 492 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: because every tradition, in each each practice is going to 493 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 1: be so different, do you know what I mean? Because 494 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 1: you have like wickens, and you have like chaos magicians, 495 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: and you have you know what I mean, it's like 496 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 1: the solitary witch and Dianic, which is it's like you 497 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 1: have all of these like different practices. So it's like 498 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 1: there's no one size fits all, Like I can't tell 499 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 1: you like, hey, kesha, um, you need to do this 500 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 1: naked full moon rich ritual. What's like, maybe that's something 501 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 1: that I like doing, maybe I think all which is 502 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:11,520 Speaker 1: actually like actually, I'm like, I feel like we all 503 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 1: really love being naked under a full moon. But you know, 504 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 1: just generally speaking, there really isn't I wouldn't feel comfortable 505 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:23,440 Speaker 1: saying like, hey, you know, to be a witch, you 506 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 1: need to do this. I think to be a witch 507 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 1: you need to create your own meaningful ritual. I think 508 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 1: you need to be true to yourself. I think you 509 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 1: should be respectful of nature, be respectful of the cycles 510 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 1: of nature. Um, and you know what I mean. And and 511 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 1: and even still it's like that's not even a guideline, 512 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, because you have satanic witches, 513 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: you have all there's just there's a whole realm of 514 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 1: witches and witchcraft. And so they're again like I said, 515 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 1: there's no one size fits all, there's no right, there's 516 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 1: no wrong. And I think that that is the beauty 517 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 1: of being a witch, that archetype, that's like the wild 518 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 1: that energy, that wildness. Or it's like you're not gonna 519 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,760 Speaker 1: tell me ship like I'm gonna do what the funk 520 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 1: I want to do and that's I'm not. It's like, 521 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: that's the difference, you know, Like the witch is like 522 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 1: it's not a queen, it's not a princess, it's not 523 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, any of these things. It's like, 524 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 1: if I want to be ugly, if I want to 525 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 1: be dark and scary, and you know, if I want 526 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 1: to be light and loving and etherory all these things, 527 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 1: It's like, that doesn't make me any less of a witch, 528 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 1: because that's just that's the beauty. That's the power of 529 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 1: the witch, is truly and just fiercely and unapologetically embracing 530 00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 1: your nature and what you are, and that is the witch. 531 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:48,240 Speaker 1: I love that I am a witch. I'm a motherfucking witch. 532 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 1: Motherfucking witches for real. Though I think I hesitate because 533 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know, I believe in like so 534 00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 1: many different things, and sometimes I want to be really 535 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 1: like a total light worker, and sometimes I want to 536 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: be kind of like a naked moon gremlin at the 537 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 1: beach and just like be like a total psychic. But 538 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 1: I think you can be all of those things, and 539 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 1: I think I'm I'm over the past year, I've been 540 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 1: really trying to focus on harnessing all of the natures 541 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:26,720 Speaker 1: of who I am, and instead of trying to be 542 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 1: ashamed of them, be proud of them. And if they 543 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,200 Speaker 1: make me happy and they're coming from a place that 544 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 1: is making some sort of positive change with it myself 545 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 1: for it to other people, it's been fucking owning it. 546 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:44,240 Speaker 1: And that's like really difficult sometimes in a society that's 547 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: not necessarily the kindest two people. And I can't even 548 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:53,160 Speaker 1: imagine like the past year. Yeah, I think that's something. 549 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 1: You know, I'm really proud of myself. I'm very grateful 550 00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 1: to be in a position where I was to create 551 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: the space, this platform if it's to help anyone, if 552 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 1: anybody gets anything out of what I do, and I 553 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 1: think a lot of that for me, um interestingly enough, 554 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:17,360 Speaker 1: was like really stepping to the forefront. And you know, 555 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 1: I got a lot of shipped from you know, other 556 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 1: other witches and like white witches are blackly it's like 557 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 1: not even just to put like a race on it, 558 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 1: but it's like a lot of old school witches who 559 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 1: are like, well, I don't like the commercialization of all 560 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 1: and it's like, okay, you can talk shit about like 561 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 1: younger people like millennials, you know, going to urban outfitters 562 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:39,719 Speaker 1: and buying their first ptero at deck.

Um. But then I was like, no, 590 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:21,480 Speaker 1: funk that, Like, I absolute right. It's like I'm a 591 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 1: black woman, I'm a Mexican woman, I have like I'm 592 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:26,800 Speaker 1: a you know, all of these things, Like within my culture, 593 00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:31,400 Speaker 1: it's like representation matters, and to be in a space 594 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:34,840 Speaker 1: where you know this, oh well, she's, you know, culturally 595 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,919 Speaker 1: the same. I grew up this way and I love 596 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,319 Speaker 1: art and I love beauty and all that stuff, it's like, 597 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,239 Speaker 1: you know, you find someone who is like relatable, and 598 00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 1: I think that that's important and that really helps me 599 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:51,120 Speaker 1: to keep going. Being unique and unfamiliar is what makes 600 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:56,680 Speaker 1: people so intriguing and interesting, and that's what I love 601 00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 1: the most about getting to talk to people, is what 602 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:02,120 Speaker 1: makes them them, Like what makes you you where did 603 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 1: you come from? Where did you, like, how did you 604 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:08,520 Speaker 1: learn these things like your ancestors, and also taking into 605 00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 1: account the younger generation where everyone is on Instagram and TikTok, 606 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:18,080 Speaker 1: and why shouldn't we be exploring our spirituality in those arenas. 607 00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:20,080 Speaker 1: That's where everybody is right now. And I think the 608 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:23,400 Speaker 1: younger you are getting to know yourself and being aware 609 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:26,359 Speaker 1: of spirituality. I think that's all a really positive way 610 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 1: to use social media. I agree, and I think that 611 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:33,439 Speaker 1: we're innately you know, spiritual being. So it's like no 612 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 1: matter how you get there, the point is is like 613 00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:38,760 Speaker 1: you're just gonna get there, and you're going to connect 614 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:42,360 Speaker 1: with people that you vibe with. You're going to connect 615 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:45,279 Speaker 1: with people who are speaking to you and that are 616 00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 1: going to help you to like grow. So not everyone's 617 00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 1: going to start off knowing everything. And I just feel like, 618 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 1: you know, elders need to be more open, and I 619 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:58,879 Speaker 1: think a lot of them are like um with I 620 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 1: just feel like if you're going and you're teaching in 621 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:05,640 Speaker 1: a manner that's respectful of you know, traditions, and like 622 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:09,399 Speaker 1: I said, there are some magical practices that have very 623 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:14,280 Speaker 1: strict guidelines that you absolutely need to be initiated into. 624 00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:17,719 Speaker 1: There are things that you can't just google and you know, 625 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,839 Speaker 1: insert yourself into. And there are things that you need 626 00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:24,479 Speaker 1: to be culturally sensitive to where you cannot just put 627 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:28,960 Speaker 1: yourself into a practice or like oh, I'm gonna, you know, 628 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:32,920 Speaker 1: worship o'shoon and I'm gonna It's like no, sweetheart, Like 629 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:36,799 Speaker 1: these are real, like religions that you actually have to 630 00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:42,120 Speaker 1: go through, like ceremony and like learning the information, Like 631 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:44,520 Speaker 1: you need to be guided, Like this is not something 632 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,359 Speaker 1: that's for play, and it's just not for you know, 633 00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:50,520 Speaker 1: for fun. This is like real life, yeah, and it's 634 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:54,320 Speaker 1: for it's My spirituality is something that's like ever changing 635 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 1: and growing, and it's something I want to protect more 636 00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 1: than anything in the world because it's solely and you know, 637 00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 1: a lot of times in life there's so many things 638 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:07,200 Speaker 1: people can take and take from you or but like 639 00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 1: your spirituality, your connection to source with the universe, like 640 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:13,200 Speaker 1: that's yours and nobody can work with that. And to 641 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,799 Speaker 1: take it slow and do it correctly. There's something I'm 642 00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,120 Speaker 1: trying to do and also just explore. I want to 643 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:21,360 Speaker 1: explore and know about everyone else and what they believe in, 644 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 1: because I really do think we're all we are all connected, 645 00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:27,520 Speaker 1: and the more we can see that instead of dividing 646 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:33,120 Speaker 1: with the religions where it's just like so so divisive 647 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:38,880 Speaker 1: versus realizing we're all trying to find our own inner 648 00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:42,480 Speaker 1: golden light or higher consciousness and that's all part of 649 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 1: the same thing.

Now we have a which ghost 784 00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:45,520 Speaker 1: series and now we have to have a cold stone. 785 00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:48,640 Speaker 1: They can all be like in the same area. We 786 00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:52,359 Speaker 1: can figure out where exactly, but in California somewhere. Yes, 787 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:57,759 Speaker 1: do you do you find yourself to be psychic? Do 788 00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:05,319 Speaker 1: you believe in like the supernatural and feeling psychic? I 789 00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:08,319 Speaker 1: guess and that we're like super natural and just kind 790 00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:10,879 Speaker 1: of like I just think it's natural. So I think 791 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:15,320 Speaker 1: that everyone is like very intuitive when we're like connect 792 00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:17,480 Speaker 1: to our power. And it's kind of to go back 793 00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:19,640 Speaker 1: into what you were saying where you're like, oh, like 794 00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:22,799 Speaker 1: you know, I have to start un learning you know, 795 00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:26,399 Speaker 1: doubting myself and really stepping into like my power and 796 00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:31,600 Speaker 1: like my intuition. I think that so many women identifying people, 797 00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:35,560 Speaker 1: we do have this tendency and I think it's been 798 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:40,279 Speaker 1: programmed within us from a very young age that you know, 799 00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:46,840 Speaker 1: our intuition is like paranoia or you're being too paranoid 800 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:49,560 Speaker 1: or that's crazy, and you know what I mean. Like 801 00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:53,880 Speaker 1: so the dreamy and like the magical sides to ourselves 802 00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 1: are suppressed and we're it's it's not something that's very developed. 803 00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:04,680 Speaker 1: And I think that as a society and just culturally, um, 804 00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:08,520 Speaker 1: you know, people value like science over intuition. But I 805 00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:11,480 Speaker 1: don't think that there needs to be um one or 806 00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:16,560 Speaker 1: the other. I think that both can coexist together, and 807 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:21,080 Speaker 1: I think that more people. Yes, I do feel that 808 00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:24,560 Speaker 1: I'm psychic, and I'm definitely a psychically sensitive that goes 809 00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:29,160 Speaker 1: into a large part of my work and I'm I 810 00:47:29,239 --> 00:47:32,279 Speaker 1: always honor that and I would love to tell more 811 00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:35,640 Speaker 1: people to embrace that part of themselves and to trust 812 00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:40,960 Speaker 1: themselves more. And that's really it Isn't it funny how 813 00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:44,520 Speaker 1: it's such a how we all have it. But the 814 00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:47,399 Speaker 1: second you start talking about it, I feel like from 815 00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:53,640 Speaker 1: multiple sorry but they are multiple men in my past 816 00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:56,000 Speaker 1: have been like, oh, that's so crazy. Oh that's so 817 00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:59,880 Speaker 1: wo wo oh, that's like you're such a You're like 818 00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:03,480 Speaker 1: doing the thing, and I'm like, no, no, no, it's 819 00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:07,640 Speaker 1: a natural feeling I have. That's I connect with with 820 00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:12,320 Speaker 1: the earth as an animal. I feel that there's something 821 00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:15,320 Speaker 1: bad is going to happen. And this happened multiple times 822 00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:18,200 Speaker 1: to me and the next day, unfortunately, I've had multiple 823 00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:20,920 Speaker 1: people passed away after having this very specific feeling in 824 00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:27,160 Speaker 1: my gut, and before they passed away, I'm crazy. I'm 825 00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:30,719 Speaker 1: just being the weirdo whatever fill in the blank. I'm 826 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:35,400 Speaker 1: being insane. And then the next day I'm like, I 827 00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:38,200 Speaker 1: told you something weird was going to happen. I felt 828 00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:41,160 Speaker 1: it in my gut, I felt it deep inside of me, 829 00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:44,359 Speaker 1: and then it happens. You know. That's and I think 830 00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:48,040 Speaker 1: that you know so many times, how many times have 831 00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:51,360 Speaker 1: every you know women and like I said, women identifying 832 00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:56,080 Speaker 1: people been dismissed as being crazy and that's insane or 833 00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:59,759 Speaker 1: that's stupid and that doesn't make rational sense and that's 834 00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:03,719 Speaker 1: not real. And I'm like, okay, but like trust your gut, 835 00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:07,040 Speaker 1: like trust your intuition um. And when people say like 836 00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 1: gut feelings, a lot of people don't know this, but 837 00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:11,960 Speaker 1: when they say trust your gut, they're talking about your 838 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:15,080 Speaker 1: solar plexus. And so your solar plexus is right where 839 00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:19,400 Speaker 1: your navel is. It's how we receive and you know, 840 00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:22,919 Speaker 1: project energy. So I think it's like that feeler. It's 841 00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:26,840 Speaker 1: just it is feeling other people's energetic um, like their aura, 842 00:49:26,920 --> 00:49:29,080 Speaker 1: their energy like in your space. So if you're getting 843 00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:31,520 Speaker 1: that gut feeling, it's in the pit of your stomach 844 00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:34,879 Speaker 1: where you're like, oh, I don't know, this doesn't feel good. 845 00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:38,480 Speaker 1: Trust that that's your that is your psychic power, that 846 00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:42,200 Speaker 1: is your intuition, that is like you really getting this 847 00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:45,680 Speaker 1: like warning and the signal. Then listen to that feeling. 848 00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:49,640 Speaker 1: Trust it, trust it. Oh my god, I really there's 849 00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:53,719 Speaker 1: so many circumstances. I mean, it's my first Tarot card 850 00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:59,799 Speaker 1: pack that like since I've kind of started understanding the 851 00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:05,080 Speaker 1: nificance of taro and I was wondering if there's a 852 00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:09,200 Speaker 1: specific thing you do with your deck or you just 853 00:50:09,239 --> 00:50:13,840 Speaker 1: like kind of meditate on it. So one thing that 854 00:50:14,080 --> 00:50:17,560 Speaker 1: I love, especially if i'm if I get a new 855 00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:21,640 Speaker 1: Tarot deck that I love, I'm okay, So let me 856 00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:24,480 Speaker 1: just like, let's just start here. So a lot of 857 00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:28,160 Speaker 1: people ask about like tarot and like what they're supposed 858 00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:30,520 Speaker 1: to do with their decks and like how they're supposed 859 00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:32,799 Speaker 1: to work with it when they first get it. I 860 00:50:32,880 --> 00:50:37,360 Speaker 1: am going to be that one who breaks away from 861 00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:41,399 Speaker 1: tradition and I'm gonna say, you don't need to be 862 00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:45,919 Speaker 1: gifted a Tarot deck, and a lot of it, there's 863 00:50:45,960 --> 00:50:48,799 Speaker 1: this misconception that like you're supposed to be gifted a 864 00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:52,040 Speaker 1: Tarot deck. I think that if you find a deck 865 00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:55,319 Speaker 1: because it is such a deeply personal tool, you like 866 00:50:55,440 --> 00:50:58,920 Speaker 1: the artwork for it, you know, you love the symbolism 867 00:50:58,920 --> 00:51:01,279 Speaker 1: by it for yourself. Why are you why are you 868 00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:04,759 Speaker 1: waiting for someone to give you the deck, like like 869 00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:07,400 Speaker 1: go buy it for yourself. But what I like to 870 00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:10,719 Speaker 1: do is I take my deck out. UM. I will 871 00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:14,280 Speaker 1: use like I don't know, it just depends, like I 872 00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:18,440 Speaker 1: try to use like a cleansing herb um, just to 873 00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:22,080 Speaker 1: cleanse the energy of it. I will sleep with it. 874 00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:25,040 Speaker 1: Sometimes I'll wrap them up in silk cloth. I keep 875 00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:28,960 Speaker 1: mine in cloth, or I have like little boxes, um, 876 00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:34,000 Speaker 1: like either wooden boxes or certain boxes that um, you know, 877 00:51:34,120 --> 00:51:36,239 Speaker 1: you can just like buy that are small enough to 878 00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 1: keep your cards in. But my favorite deck that I 879 00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:41,200 Speaker 1: like working with right now, it's like wrapped up in 880 00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:44,480 Speaker 1: cloth and I put it in silk cloth. UM. I 881 00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:47,480 Speaker 1: put like a quartz crystal on it. You put it 882 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:50,360 Speaker 1: under your pillow. If there's certain cards that are really 883 00:51:50,480 --> 00:51:52,959 Speaker 1: jumping out to you in the deck, you can put 884 00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:57,680 Speaker 1: that on your altar, on your vanity table, on your dresser, UM, 885 00:51:57,719 --> 00:51:59,640 Speaker 1: and just like meditate on it and just look at 886 00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:02,080 Speaker 1: the image dree of it. If you don't really understand 887 00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:05,600 Speaker 1: what it is and why you like it. I would 888 00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:09,880 Speaker 1: sit with that first before reading you know, the instruction 889 00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:15,279 Speaker 1: manual for it, because I'm I'm totally with you, like 890 00:52:15,320 --> 00:52:20,239 Speaker 1: I'm like always of the mindset like I can do 891 00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:22,279 Speaker 1: it myself. I got this, I'm gonna go get my 892 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:24,279 Speaker 1: deck whatever. And I was going to go out and 893 00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:26,239 Speaker 1: buy myself a deck. And then for my birthday a 894 00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:29,399 Speaker 1: week ago, a really really close friend of mine got 895 00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:33,279 Speaker 1: me a deck that just like I'm obsessed with and 896 00:52:33,320 --> 00:52:35,920 Speaker 1: I keep pulling the same card, like I kept like 897 00:52:35,960 --> 00:52:38,719 Speaker 1: trying to not pull the same card and shuffling, and 898 00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:42,239 Speaker 1: the same card kept jumping out at me. I love 899 00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:45,000 Speaker 1: when that happens. And I was like, oh, ship, I 900 00:52:45,040 --> 00:52:47,920 Speaker 1: think it's really just this card. I think it's really 901 00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:50,920 Speaker 1: this card. But I was wondering if you have a 902 00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:55,680 Speaker 1: card that speaks to you the most. I'm okay, So 903 00:52:57,280 --> 00:53:00,799 Speaker 1: I really love So it just depends on what deck. 904 00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:03,360 Speaker 1: But there's I have three of them, so one of 905 00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:06,720 Speaker 1: them is the death card. I love the death card 906 00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:11,080 Speaker 1: generally in all most decks from like old New. I 907 00:53:11,080 --> 00:53:12,759 Speaker 1: don't know if they told you this, but like I 908 00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:16,280 Speaker 1: have over two hundreds. Oh my god, no, you didn't 909 00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:20,000 Speaker 1: tell me that. So there's so many different I'm sure 910 00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:24,279 Speaker 1: there's so many different kinds of decks. I'm sure. Yeah. Um, 911 00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:27,440 Speaker 1: I mean I have some old decks from like, you know, 912 00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:32,319 Speaker 1: the early nineteenth century. I have some cool ones from 913 00:53:32,320 --> 00:53:36,120 Speaker 1: the sixties, from the seventies, I had a lot of 914 00:53:36,160 --> 00:53:39,920 Speaker 1: really cool like old, rare, out of print decks. UM. 915 00:53:40,040 --> 00:53:42,000 Speaker 1: I get a lot of decks sent to me just 916 00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:45,920 Speaker 1: from new artists, UM that have made their decks, and 917 00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:48,960 Speaker 1: I just have like a crazy collection of them. UM. 918 00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:53,000 Speaker 1: But my favorite cards the death card. I love the 919 00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:58,719 Speaker 1: Empress and I love m What do else? What else 920 00:53:58,760 --> 00:54:01,440 Speaker 1: I like seeing? I like seeing the Nine of Pentacles, 921 00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:04,400 Speaker 1: She's a good one, or like just that card in general. 922 00:54:04,520 --> 00:54:07,719 Speaker 1: I really love what is the What is the significance 923 00:54:07,760 --> 00:54:11,680 Speaker 1: of the Nine of Pentacles and the death card? So 924 00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:16,520 Speaker 1: the death card is a signifier of like rebirth and transformation. 925 00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:20,560 Speaker 1: It's like the phoenix rising from the ashes. Um in 926 00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:25,120 Speaker 1: the terror that card is really just you know, a 927 00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:28,359 Speaker 1: major transformation. So when some people see it, they get 928 00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:32,240 Speaker 1: like really spooked out in readings, UM, I do terror readings, 929 00:54:32,320 --> 00:54:34,920 Speaker 1: So like when that card comes up, UM, a lot 930 00:54:34,960 --> 00:54:37,319 Speaker 1: of people get freaked out. But it's not anything to 931 00:54:37,400 --> 00:54:40,560 Speaker 1: be scary, it's just change. It's major change on a 932 00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:44,480 Speaker 1: very deep level, soul level. UM. And so the Nine 933 00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:47,880 Speaker 1: of Pentacles for me, when I see that card come up, 934 00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:53,279 Speaker 1: it's really just about like um that financial independent and 935 00:54:53,360 --> 00:54:56,359 Speaker 1: like making money and like, you know like that it's 936 00:54:56,360 --> 00:54:59,720 Speaker 1: a very like tourist Earth the you know, like very 937 00:54:59,760 --> 00:55:04,439 Speaker 1: like uh, material oriented type of cards.

And then with the Empress, I 940 00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:12,719 Speaker 1: love her because she's like the mother, like the nurtures. 941 00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:17,040 Speaker 1: It's like a very venusian um energy, like the care provider, 942 00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:21,240 Speaker 1: like carrying and nurturing and like that divine feminine power 943 00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:25,200 Speaker 1: and energy.
