My Tarot deck collection

All the attention and admiration they're going to get, they're gonna love it! The kawaii tarot has been the most brutally honest and unsympathetic with me, lol. The crow tarot is an easy afternoon visit from a balanced friend. The Gustave Doré has some Eeyore energy. Readings have a touch of wistful melancholy in them. The Wild Unknown - bestie being real & loving. Queer Deck - the jarring colors & ugly clashing patterns aside, the characters illustrated in these cards are awesome & always offer stuff to think about. The oracle cards from the Herbiary I haven't used yet, actually! They'll get some love in the library and come back to me ready to guide me. Several tarot decks in a little display case on top of fake wild grass and real crystals scattered around the guidebooks, cases, and spread-out decks.

The Witch's Yearbook by Clare Gogerty

Hags of all kinds welcome here, esp to collect hag stones with me. The next time you go to the seaside and walk on a pebbly beach, look out for stones with holes in them. These have the unfortunate name 'hag stones,' a reference to an old superstition that they kept 'hags' or witches away from your home or your animals. If hung on a stable door, your horse was safe from a witch kidnapping it and riding it to the point of exhaustion. Nowawdays, these special stones are seen as a symbol of femininity and of the moon goddess Diana. Some witches collect them, and once they have 12, arrange them in a circle. Objects placed within the circle gain extra power.
