I love seeing different drawn cards from people every day. It's like the collective creating a multi card reading.

In fact I think that could be a fun thing to do with some people. Each of us draw a card, pool them together and see what we get!

Urban Magick by Diana Rajchel

Many of us live in rural areas. Getting out into the woods can be a difficult thing to manage most days, but that doesn't mean we're totally disconnected from the spiritual. I enjoy the different point of view this book offers. Seeing the magical even in the city

All of it. Maximum vibration

I really wonder sometimes how much of it is lack of confidence so they want to pull other people down and how much of it is that they haven't done the work deconstructing and trying to bring rigid systems into witchcraft rather than just letting other people be.

I needed this today. Been having some wild things going on that have been tripping me up. Keep asking myself if I'm ready for this.

Daily Reading - Feb 6, 2026
Eight of Wands
โ€œI move with momentum and clarity, allowing whatโ€™s aligned to arrive.โ€
Todayโ€™s energy is about momentum, motion, and being aware of itโ€™s flow. Things may move faster than expected. Events might pop out of nowhere calling for your attention. Stay in the moment and donโ€™t let yourself get swept away in the chaos. Itโ€™s a good time to be aware of this flow and follow it mindfully.

Pay attention to the flow of energy today. Things are moving quickly so it would be easy to just let go and get swept up with it. It's okay to go with the flow, but do so mindfully.

Things have to be shaken up in order to change for the better (hopefully) right? .... right?

Dark, starry background with gold celestial design elements. Centered is a tarot card illustration of the Six of Pentacles, showing a figure distributing coins to two kneeling people. Above the card is text reading โ€˜Daily Reading - Feb 3, 2026โ€™ and โ€˜Six of Pentacles.โ€™ Below the card is the affirmation โ€˜I give and receive with ease, balance, and trust,โ€™ followed by a short paragraph "Todayโ€™s energy highlights balance and reciprocity. Notice where youโ€™re giving and where youโ€™re receiving, and whether that exchange feels fair. This card reminds us that generosity should flow both ways, and that itโ€™s okay to accept support as readily as we offer it."

Today's reading speaks of balance of energy. Flow and ebb, back and forth, give and receive. You can't always be the one giving yourself to others.

Five of Swords

The Five of Swords asks us to pick our battles wisely. Itโ€™s tempting to argue tooth and nail when you feel like you are in the right, but that isnโ€™t always the best move. Take a hard look at these situations and if compromise is the better option for everyone involved.

In the end it helps to understand how our brains work, but in my opinion so long as you are being true to yourself and your needs, right?

Yea, daily powders and dry herbs tend to burn fast. I would suggest a warmer like someone else in this thread said. Personally, I end up putting more on the coal now and then. Make it part of a meditative practice.

Its nice going back and forth. Like okay... we're doing this... okay 15 days later at the full moon assess what worked and what didn't. Reshuffle and keep going!

How much if it is being empathic... and how much is being neurodivergent and the hypervigilance that comes along with it?

Sometimes its not needing a full overhaul, but the path is going to take more than one moon cycle. Totally agree!

It's less of a waiting until it's not glowing and more waiting until you have some ash around the edge. That said may I ask what kind of incense you are burning? Many of those charcoal disks actually burn a bit too hot for most incense.

Blessed Samhain, everyone! I hope today goes well for you! Wish I could have a bonfire here, but alas... apartment life. I do get to go and play with the ghosts though. Maybe one will make an appearance.

Tomorrow is the big day! As of right now I have 32 people for the ghost tour! 32! That is the most I've had so far and it's looking like I'm going to be on my own. Hoping we catch some activity this time around!

The Five of Pentacles 
โ€œI am not alone. Support is within reach. I am worthy of warmth, care, and connection... right now, exactly as I am.โ€

A picture of a Bloodstone with the words:
Bloodstone: Restoration, Redirection, Motivation

Times are getting hard and it feels like itโ€™s not going to let up any time soon. Look at the window in the picture. The lights are on inside... Help is available to you, should you decide to reach out and ask for it. Now is not the time for stoic self-reliance. The only way through is together. Look for people and places where you can find a helping hand and offer your own.

Journaling
Where do I feel โ€œleft out in the coldโ€ right now?
Not just physically.. emotionally, spiritually, socially.
Where am I feeling disconnected, unsupported, or unseen?
What resources or support already exist that I may be overlooking?
Five of Pentacles often shows that help is nearby. We just havenโ€™t reached for it.
What story am I telling myself about my worthiness of care or support?
Is that story mine, or did I learn it from someone else?
If I imagine myself stepping inside the lit doorway in the card, what is inside?
What does safety look like, feel like, smell like, sound like for you?

Today's draw is the Five of Pentacles. What is keeping you from reaching out for the help you need? Why don't you feel you're good enough for it?

An old Georgian style house.

An old Georgian style house.

This is the Little Brice House. The site of what is considered the oldest haunting in Annapolis. An elderly woman wrapped in blackened bandages who only appears to liars and cheaters... whom she has a special distaste for.
