In this step, while thinking about the question, you or the querent will shuffle Tarot cards in any way you want. The most important thing in this step is the focus of the one who shuffles (either the querent or the reader, depending on the reader’s own rules), the reader will guide how many times and how to shuffle the cards.
Therefore, do not be surprised when there are some people who will ask you to shuffle 100 times, the deck is only shuffled by the reader, the querent can only draw cards or just swap cards while thinking about the matter they are asking. All of the instructions above are only intended to help the querent and reader to focus on the questions and cards.
After having shuffled Tarot cards and the querent’s mentality has stabilized, we will begin to spread cards. Each Tarot spread will have a different arrangement and corresponding specific meaning, therefore, the reader needs to guide the querent each position of the card. The reader can talk about the kind of spread that will be used and guide the querent to pick up each card and place it in a certain position after shuffling.
The thing that many beginners usually wonder is how to set up rules for the upright/reversed cards and whether is it necessary to use them or not? How many times to shuffle tarot cards? The shortest answer is to depend on your own convention with the deck. You can use the card either in one direction or both in the upright/reverse.
If you read Tarot cards in the upright direction only, you just need to shuffle them in the usual way. If you use the reversed direction, you should refer to a few ways of shuffling so that both the upright and reversed cards can appear in one Tarot spread. The easiest way is to cut the deck into a number of different piles and put each pile in an upright/reversed order alternately, then shuffle them up.
In the traditional way, the querent will shuffle cards before giving readers to spread and solve them. However, this is not an immutable rule, the reader can also shuffle the cards before or after the querent’s turn to increase their focus on the Tarot spread.
Regarding how to set up rules for upright/reversed cards on one spread, you can use one of the followings flexibly:

Below are just a few of the websites that contain information about what Angel numbers are and how they are a part of our everyday life. If you would like to check out some other websites about Angel Numbers use this link for the general search I did on this topic.

Numbers have long been considered mysterious. The numbers have a unique power and have been considered to influence life and fortunes. There seem to be a lot of people studying numbers, including Plato and Pythagoras. This is so-called numerology. Pythagoras in particular argued that “numbers are all things” and thought that the essence of all things is in the numbers. I thought that the laws of numbers would tell us about a person’s life and even their fortunes.
Angel number is one such numerology. There are always angels around us. And the angel is telling us a message through numbers. Why don’t you come across the same strange numbers as car numbers, birthdays, receipt figures, IDs, and so on?
That is the message that the angel is trying to tell you. If you think so, you will feel somewhat mysterious and be captivated by mysterious things.

Though we all have angels around us all of the time, our guardian angels do not always communicate with us in simple or clear ways that are easy to interpret and understand.
Most of the time, angelic guidance comes in mysterious signs and uncanny synchronistic occurrences that one must be in alignment with to understand.
Remember, angels are celestial beings who live in a realm that exists at a higher vibrational frequency than the physical world.
Being celestial messengers of our highest truth, God, or Source, angels are bound by the laws of God and therefore can not interfere with the events in our lives without our direct consent.
This is why our guardians have to send their guidance to us in signs and symbolic messages.
One of the most common and exciting ways that our angels send their guidance and wisdom is through the use of angel numbers.
Angel numbers are sequences of numbers that carry divine guidance by referring to specific numerological meanings.
In Numerology, the…

Angel numbers are the recurring number sequences like 11:11, 333 and 444 that carry meaning and symbolism from the angels. In addition to offering a general validation that you have angels with you, the different number sequences all carry deeper specific guidance and meaning.
Believe it or not, seeing angel numbers is one of the most commonly experienced signs from the angelic realm.
This may sound surprising, but the truth of the matter is that Angelic guidance and assistance does not always appear as expected.
Yes, sometimes Angels will answer your prayers through direct intervention, triggering miraculous healing, providing clear word for word guidance, or aligning things in your life in a beautiful and synchronistic way.
Other times, and perhaps more often than not, the guidance and wisdom of angels appears more subtly.
Guidance from Angels can appear in the form of a dream, overhearing something said in passing, through an intuitive nudge, a flash of inspiration, or a repetitive feeling, thought, or idea.
Angels also love to send signs and signals that they are with you, and angel numbers just so happen to be one of the most common angel signs that appear.
Have you felt like certain numbers just keep following you around? It’s NOT Random!
Below you will find everything you need to know about angel numbers, what they are, what they mean, and how to start tuning into the guidance your angels are sending you through them.

Marseilles Tarot (Tarot de Marseilles) is a mystical system that emerged from the 13th century and was completed in the 17th century in France. From the beginning, the deck was popularly used for magical research, divination, and meditation to this day.
The deck according to Tarot De Marseille standard has a simple image system of Minor Arcana, only includes the symbol and its use must be based on multiple algorithms, not merely looking at images and symbols.
Tarot readers who lean on academics and research and less practice in the reading should look to more complicated decks according to Marseille or Thoth standards because of the depth in its layers of knowledge.
Tarot De Marseille, instead of being used for interpretation, is found primarily to play cards, both in betting halls and in private homes. Marseille cards were once printed from wood carving and kept a modest and simple art form.
The Fool – Le Mat Tarot does not have a number but a name. It is the only card in the Major Arcana that is not defined by numbers. The card represents a boundless source of energy, complete freedom, madness, confusion, chaos, or even the urge to create basic creativity. In traditional card games, the Fool is portrayed by characters like the Joker or unusual characters/cards that can represent any other card, at any time without matching any of them. The Fool’s keyword phrase is “All roads are mine”.
The Magician takes number one. This character contains all potential; it is like the starting point from which the universe appeared. For the Magician, everything is possible. He had a range of elements displayed on the table in front of him that he could use every time he wanted, and a small bag that was not difficult to see and seems to be an endless bag, like the goat horn with fruit (symbolizing abundance). From his table, this character works towards the universe and spiritual life.
Shadowscapes Tarot deck from the author Stephanie Pui-Mun Law deserves a masterpiece in a diverse Tarot world. The deck currently stands Top 10 of All Time by Aeclectic community site. In response to many fans’ expectations, Llewellyn Publications released a version of Shadowscapes with a large companion book. Some people will consider this Tarot deck graceful, beautiful and mysterious in a miraculous fairy scene. And so they are not interested in it. But others – fans of the fantasy genre – enjoy it anyway.
This deck is fundamentally composed based on the traditional Rider-Waite-Smith version that blends with the iconic system of fantasy wonderland and cultures around the world. Each of Shadowscapes cards is a delicate watercolor painting. The style of drawing with rich and luxurious details and the wonderful movement of watercolor will make their owners charmed.
The cards in Shadowscapes Tarot are delicate watercolor paintings – a work of art – and can be seen in its elegant details and rhythmic movements. The reader will be hypnotized by the same beauty. When the reader starts to get used to it, they seem to be lost because of that beauty and can understand the messages of each card. However, when you become familiar with it, you will no longer be afraid of that mystic beauty, so this problem will quickly fade with time and experience.
Furthermore, it seems that this deck works well with people who have a type of reading based on questions like “what do you see going on when you look at the card?” And the answer becomes part of the experience. But even if the drawing makes you distracted and cannot read it in a classic way, there are other ways to get used to it. For example, these images easily make people think it is particularly effective in opening a world of imagination.
Although Shadowscapes Tarot basically follows the classic Rider-Waite-Smith style, it is not a copy of RWS. Law has deciphered the traditional images of the card, pondered their meaning and reinterpreted it with her new look. With many cards, she used a unique perspective, and it is obviously her style. Therefore, for less experienced readers (especially those who depend on RWS template), this is not an easy deck. It requires deliberate thinking and time to get used to the cards. However, the time you spend will bring you to separate cards, you will find new paths. In other words, this is a worthwhile journey.
In fact, every time we look at the cards, we can gain more experience and our own understanding of them. One of these detailed origins is the very popular and subtle appearance of nymphs, dryads, and fairy in every scene on the cards. However, you will often have to look very closely to see them, and you will have to think about what they are doing to be able to understand the messages that these characters convey. For example, there is a fairy who is looking at a skull in the Wheel of Fortune (the skull is a traditional illustration of death in our perception) but you may easily ignore this character because the Wheel behind is too gorgeous to hide her.

The Ten of Pentacles says that your career is at its peak. It depicts an old, wise man sitting comfortably outside the entrance of a town. He was surrounded by family members and his dog. He wore a colorful robe decorated with a vine, crescent moon, and other symbols. There is a mischievous boy playing with the dog. This card represents financial stability and comfort. The man is resting and enjoying the fruits of his labor while observing the family members. He can safely leave because the lives of his descendants are very stable.

In Numerology, the nine single-digit numbers are the building blocks of the study of Numerology. These numbers in Numerology represent a specific set of character traits, symbolism (spiritual or otherwise), and meaning. In fact, it’s almost like each of them has their own unique personality!
By understanding the meaning of these numbers in Numerology, we can better understand the profound messages they are sending us, especially when they show up in our chart or throughout our lives.
With almost every calculation we do in Numerology, we
Mathematics might not have been our favorite subject in school, but what we weren’t told as young students is the fact that mathematics and numbers is the language of our universe. All creation can be explained in mathematical terms. It is a wholly-contained, pure and consistent system. From the way planets move, to how things float on water or fall on the ground with gravity, math explains every single thing in our universe.
Math is spiritual mysticism in disguise and numerology is the mystical study of the meaning of numbers and the effect they have on our surroundings. One ancient Greek philosopher, by the name of Pythagoras, held the belief that numbers create energies which make up the physical world.
What’s so amazing about math is that no amount of cultural transformation, social change or new technology can change the fact that one plus one equals two! It is incorruptible, unchangeable and it provides a coherent basis of measurement, defining all spatial relationships with divine precision. Mathematics translates our spiritual world into manifest, physical formulas. It bridges the spirit with the visible, touchable world.
The Gothic rune set, while lacking its own rune poem, does have some very interesting meanings known to us. The reason for this is due to a bishop from the middle of the fourth century named Ulfila. Bishop Ulfila set out to construct a new alphabet that was largely based on the Gothic runes as well as Hellenic Greek and Arian and Gnostic Christian sources. While his alphabet failed for its purpose it did do a few positive things for the runes. Ulfila’s meanings for his magical alphabet found their way back into the meanings for the Gothic runes. Some would say that this is not a benefit for the runes because Ulfila’s own meanings may have replaced the older meanings for the runes. However, since we no longer have much idea what those meanings are, we do have at least one version of meanings for the runes. Of course, being a bishop, we do tend to see a sort of “Christian flavor” to the meanings, which can be looked on as either a good or a bad thing – all depending on your view.
When Christianity started to rise among the Goths they gave up their use of the runes, but they did replace their rune use with the use of Bishop Ulfila’s alphabet. The use of the new alphabet may in fact have kept us from forgetting about the Gothic runes and their meanings. Even though the true meanings may be lost, we do see at least one set of meanings for these runes thanks to the bishop. Also, I find it hard to believe that while creating meanings for his own alphabet that Ulfila completely ignored the original meanings for the Gothic runes. So there is still a possibility that the newer, “more Christianized” meanings have hints of the original meanings in them.
Another reason we know a little more about the Gothic runes, despite it not having a rune poem, is thanks to Otto von Friesen. This Swedish researcher, in 1928, published Runorn i Sverige in which he reconstructed the Gothic runes, their meanings as well as assigned genders to each rune. An excellent work that allows us more insight to the runes and their meanings on a whole new level.
The Witch’s Runes are a set of magic symbols used as an oracle. (They’re unrelated to the Norse runes and other archaic alphabets.) While the exact age of this symbol set is unknown, it draws upon familiar images that will be instantly recognizable to the unconscious mind. Over time, Witch’s Runes have gained a reputation as an easy-to-learn, no-frills method for divining the past, present, and future.
Author Dana Corby published an article in the Crystal Well magazine in the 1970s outlining a traditional divination method using 13 runic symbols. (It has since been expanded and re-released as a paperback and e-book.) The Witchs Runes system later got the book treatment from Susan Sheppard in 1998 with A Witch’s Runes: How to Make and Use Your Own Magick Stones.
Since we are dealing with an evolving, folk magick system…

This “Classic of Change” can be traced as far back as 3000 years in written form, and the Chinese claim that it was passed down as oral tradition for two thousand years before that.
Its longevity isn’t the only wonder the I Ching holds claim to.
It also possesses the uncanny ability to actually communicate with anyone who chooses to use it.
This is no fortune-telling gimmick — in fact, the I Ching often frustrates attempts to divine the future from its pages.
This oracle is solely concerned with the present — YOUR present.
It takes you past the tunnel vision and gives you a 360 degree view of your situation.
It goes beyond the realm of your five senses and picks up the subliminal signals that sailed right past your conscious awareness to become filed away in your subconscious.
When you are obsessed with a desire, intent on an outcome, the I Ching gently nudges you and says, “Yes, but have you considered this …?”
This classic’s ability to accurately gauge a situation probably seemed like a gift from the gods to the sages who discovered it — and in a sense, it is.
But modern science is progressively removing the layers of superstition from its legend and replacing it with new understanding that is no less magical.
Like all oracles of the ancient world, the I Ching’s message …
(I will start including an Angel number in the Daily Divination Journal. It is for general knowledge only as your Angel number may be different than the one I post.)

The number 22 is another master number in numerology and it is considered the strongest number. If you have number 22 as a final number on your numerology chart you are what is considered a visionary. You strive to help those around you and humanity as a whole. You are selfless and loving in nature. Your downfall is that you often forget to take care of yourself which can lead to stress that may be taken out on those around you.


(Side Note: This website offers information on more than just the Rider – Waite Tarot Deck)
A standard Tarot deck consists of 78 cards divided into two parts, the Major Arcana and Minor Arcana. The Arcana word is a plural of Arcanum which means “deep mystery.” For medieval alchemists, Arcanum is a mystery of nature. Tarot cards are, therefore, a collection of “mysteries” that make the foundation and explain our world.
The 22 cards in the Major Arcana are the center of the deck. Each of these cards represents some common aspects of human experience. Major cards are special because they open up complex and deep reactions. The images on the Rider-Waite deck evoke association because they combine the system of mystical symbols with recognizable images and circumstances.
While the Major Arcana represents common topics, 56 cards in the Minor Arcana bring these topics into practical areas to show how they work at daily events. Minor cards represent related issues, activities and emotional states that create circumstances in our daily lives.
The interpretation of each card in the table below will give you a deep and complete understanding of the 78 Tarot cards, thereby making the reading become easier. At the same time, you will also have basic concepts to combine cards together in a Tarot spread, making interpretation more effective and coherent.

Today’s reading comes from The English Magic Tarot by Rex Van Ryn, Steve Dooley, and Andy Letcher ©️ 2016.

Description: A young couple toasts one another at their wedding dance. There hands are entwined and they are looking at each other intently.
Interpretation: This is obviously a marriage but is the couple looking at each other with smoldering passion or with contemptuous disdain? It’s either a fabulous match or a complete sham.
If I’ve learned one thing about weddings, it’s that the externals, the trimmings, don’t matter a jot. If the couple aren’t dancing together as one, then no amount of cakes, chintz, or confetti will make it work.
Weddings are important, not in a preachy or moralizing way, but in a magical way. The ritual act knits together the couple, their friends, families, and the community. That’s why, when couples decide to break up, we all feel shaken. Conversely, a good wedding renews our vows.
So while the Two of Cups is undoubtedly a wonderful, romantic card that you should beb delighted to receive in a reading, it is also a reminder to consider carefully the ritual of marriage and all that it entails. Marriage is hard at the best of times and deserves a good start. If you choose to do it, you might as well do it right.
Reading: The card signifies the culmination of romantic love, perhaps even a wedding.

Sound: “l”
Stands for: Power of water
Casting meaning: Unlike other “water runes” this rune concentrates on the power of water – waterfalls, ocean wave, flowing rivers. It is a purification or washing away of unwanted or unneeded thing, a way to cleanse oneself.

The Bat arriving in your life signifies an omen of change. He asks that you pay attention to signs around you. The transition may seem frightening at first, but you must let go of your old habits and patterns that no longer serve your higher calling. They will only hinder your growth.

Add the salt to the water. place the object in the salt water with your power hand (the hand you write with). Then say three times, ” Earth and Water I ask you to remove all energy but my own from this ______”. Take it out of the salt water with your power hand. WARNING: Some gems and crystals should not be left sitting in any type of water. For those things sparingly sprinkle them with the salt water (Earth/Water Element) on all sides.
Place the object on the white cloth. With your power hand pick up the feather. Wave it over the stone saying three times, “Air I ask you to remove all energy but my own from this _______”. Turn the object over and repeat until all outside surface has been done.

Whatever tools you use for divination, such as tarot cards, runes, crystal ball, etc.
Not every form of divination works for every Witch. Sometimes it take trial and error to discover which one work the best for you. If you are having a hard time seeing clearly, try doing this before attempting a reading. It is also a good one to do if the issue at hand is very important.
If you still have a hard time seeing the answers you seek, you can try having your familiar help by giving them a choice of tarot cards or runes stones, and seeing which one they pick.
You can call on any God or Goddess for this spell. Apollo is used here because he was the patron God of the Oracle at Delphi, probably the most famous center of divination in the ancient world.

Thus far, we have worked only with single-digit numbers with the exception of the Master numbers and the Karmic Debt numbers. Now, let’s look at the numbers 10 and up.
A single-digit number can be based on different compound numbers.
The 7, for instance, can be based on 16, 25, 34, 43, 52, 61, 70, 79, 88, and 97. Although they all reduce to 7, each changes the personality of the 7 to some extent. In some cases, the changes are quite dramatic, such as when the double-digit number is a Master number or a Karmic Debt number.
When a single-digit number is based on a double-digit number, it’s a good habit to include it in the numerology chart.
If a 7 is based on 25, write 25/7, if it’s based on 34 write 34/7.
A double-digit number’s characteristics are dominated by that of the single-digit to which it reduces. The double-digit number highlights certain aspects and diminishes others, but it never eliminates any aspect completely.
For example, a 7 based on 25 is not as withdrawn as a 7 based on a 16, while a 7 based on 34 is more creative than other 7s.
