Participant #1:
Welcome to episode 22 of season two. So if you just joined, this is a very healthy Maria. Well, healthy ish Maria Gain on Instagram, and I am joined by the ever so lovely Robin at A Tired Witch on Instagram. Hello. Did you miss me? I did, yeah. I mean, our guests are lovely, and I’m so glad that 19 Olivia were able to fill in. But I’m glad you’re bouncing. I did miss such cool guests. Very cool guests. Real hotties. Going to keep them around. I guess I will let them replace me. That’s it. Forever. Actually, this is actually announcing everyone. I’m actually Nike and Olivia in a suit. Nike in a long trench, cute coat, who is a woman. Maria, you grow so tall. Thank you. Oh, my gosh. Before we start this podcast, we should do a little bit of agenda stuff. Little shop talk. This is going to be our last episode of the year. We will hopefully be doing a single Coffee Talk episode that will come out next week. But as we do every year, Marie and I both take off. You’ll celebrate with our families. So we will be having this episode, then a Coffee Talk episode, hopefully. And then we’re going to have a two week break in between, and we’ll see you in 2022. So if you are listening, please know that we will be back. We’re just taking a short little break because we do it every year.
Participant #1:
Another thing is to have the Coffee Talk episode, we need you guys to submit some stories. We’re not getting any of this round, which is such a bummer because we want to hear your yuletime festivities stuff that you guys do with your families or with yourself. So be sure to send us some submissions. This is the first time we’ve only had one submission, and that’s not enough to talk about. Yeah, we want to hear you guys as traditions with your family or ones that you’re even just starting and brand new tradition. That sounds fun. I know I’ve got a couple of you could tell us some really cool little history facts. That would be cool, too. That would be cool. We’re an open book here, right? I feel like there’s one other thing I had to bring up and I don’t remember what it is, so oh, well, it wasn’t important, and if it is important, I’ll say it again at the end.
Participant #1:
So if you are just joining us this week, every week we talk about upcoming lunar phases and how we can utilize this information in our practice. Now, I know that Nike filled in last week, and so Nike had this incredible like, these are the lunar phases and we love them for that. But you guys are now back to stuck with me. Sorry about it. So that being said, we have the upcoming full moon in Gemini on December 19, and I personally am not a really big fan of this moon. I was just talking to Marie about this before we hit recording. But the Gemini full moons very specifically are all about things like mind, body learning and just how we process information and how we communicate in that sort of error. So that being said, I don’t like this whole man because we are coming up on the holiday season. So that means that is going to be doing a lot of communication based spellwork and processing spell work at the same time that we are dealing with our families,
Participant #1:
which is not really my favorite, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t utilize it in a lot of really great ways. If you are going to be meeting up with your family for this. You’ll see the full moon in Gemini is a good time to do spellwork that is combating, stubbornness, selfishness, gossip, maybe a little misinformation with your uncle, the Q and on supporter and just general lack of empathy. These are the sort of things that we are going to be tackling and we can do spell work to kind of counteract any early issues that one might have with their families. It’s very resourceful, very useful. I personally just don’t like it because I typically find that any kind of family situation that aligns with the full men and Gemini tends to be quite combative. Yeah, it’s not my favorite. Yeah, maybe like doing a friendship or love like stealthier or something for relationships that you want to flourish and do well or how can make a peace spell. So if you’re going to get together with your family everyone has mine their manners. Yeah, somebody chill and maybe do a little spell that your races uncle doesn’t show up because anything wrong happened to them. They just didn’t feel like it. You know what I mean? Yeah. Use olive oil or even like an olive branch to signify at least peace temporarily, not by saying that you have to make peace with the Uncle Robin describing because who wants to be someone like that? Okay. And I refuse to believe otherwise. That one you can vanish.
Participant #1:
Yeah. So these are the things to look at and to utilize. I think you guys will kill it. It might not be my favorite, but that doesn’t mean that you specifically cannot have a very productive spell work for all this. So just don’t plan any family get together on that day. Yeah, don’t do it. Don’t turn around, run the other direction. Think about doing something else.
Participant #1:
So if you just started listening to us, every podcast we talk about a random tarot card. We go over the universal meaning and then our own interpretations of the cards. Hearing others opinions helps us form different opinions or even those who have been practicing for a while, expansive views and other meetings. So this week we are talking about strength on the Roderweight Smith version of the stack. You will see a figure dressed in a white gown with a crown and an apron made of greenery and feathers. An infinity symbol is above their head, and the figure is opening the mouth of a lion. And while that should be terrifying, they instead have, like, a screen look on their face. Petting a lion is no big deal, guys. The keywords of this card are inner strength, courage, and determination. So when this card pops up in readings, for me or my clients, it is really just like an encouraging message to keep going and to keep looking scary situations in the mouth because you do have the power to overcome them. Sometimes we underestimate ourselves and what we can accomplish, and I think this card is a testament to that. I also feel like this card shows that facing hard and difficult situations is a big part of our growth, as shown by, like, the apron of the crown of greenery, that these situations, no matter how much we wish they didn’t pop up, they will. No one is immune to life ups and flows. And I feel that the infinity symbol is once again, like a message to keep going, like, keep trying, rinse and repeat. I also think Temperance is kind of representing those cards as well. Due to the figures expression on their face, they aren’t in a rush. They are composed. So it’s like reminding you to take it easy and slow. You won’t be able to rush through anything. You might make the situation worse or have awful results. So you need some tact and some patience to get through it. So how do you view this card? Robin dear? So I have two takes on this card, okay? It is both a positive and a negative take. I very much so agree with you in terms of resilience, etc. For me, a key word with this card is patience. The figure didn’t just put her, like, hands in the lion’s mouth the moment she walked up to this lion. Think of it like a lion tamer. It’s something that they’ve worked on together, et cetera, to get through it. However, I see this card come up, and a lot of people in, like, love readings, and a lot of people are like, oh, he’s my crazy lion, and I have to tame him, and I should have patience. People are in projects, and when I see this card come up in a love reading, specifically, it is a turn around and run, get out of there. And I only see that in love readings. This card being a negative because, like I said, people are not projects, and you shouldn’t have to tame someone’s wild side to have a happy life with them. Do you know what I mean? I typically see this card coming up in romance readings when there is a partner who wants their one partner wants the other partner to be their parent. Do you know what I mean? And to take care of them and for them to be reckless and wild. And the other one like to be the soothing touch and it ends up being a very toxic and emotionally abusive relationship in most situations. So not to be a downer, but that is a little Robin UPG for everyone. That in my reading. I actually agree with you 100% because that card comes up for me in a similar way. Like if it’s in a negative spot upright in a reading, like, it brings all those negative things of the card upright to a head and definitely comes off how you describe. Yeah. So it’s just one of those things that I don’t like it when I see it. I’m like, no. So just tread lightly, have patience, but don’t be a doormat.
Participant #1:
What are we talking about today? Tell me what we’re talking about. So this week we thought we talked about the winter solstice since we’ll be going on a break until after the new year. So kind of how we’re celebrating and how we have in the past since someone is moving. So maybe we’ll give you guys some ideas on how to celebrate it’s. Maria, guys, Maria is moving, not me. I wish. Get me out of here.
Participant #1:
I’m a celebrity. Get me out of here.
Participant #1:
Slash New Year. What are big rituals or little rituals that you like doing every year? So I think there is this misunderstanding that, like, spirits just go away after satin or at least they aren’t as prevalent, but that isn’t true. Throughout history and different cultures, there have been many stories and tells about the dead returning to this plane this time of year, either in the form of elves, spirits, among other things. So like the winter equinox winter solstice. Hello. This year did it anyway weird. Does not even know what year it is. Guys, let’s give her a break. Okay, so for this winter solstice, I’m going to be writing letters to the ones that I’ve lost over the past years, to my guys and ancestors and all that, and thanking them for everything they’ve done for me and wishing them well. And I’m going to be putting those letters on my trees.
Participant #1:
The lights on the tree is also like draw the menu, like candles and stuff like that. And then also on the night of the equinox, we equinox Jesus Christ solstice
Participant #1:
all the candles in the house and have a main candle going that represents the sun. And we of course, have our huge savory feast that night also with all the fixings. But also on the 24th, we have a sweet and appetizer feast and watch like, all the holiday movies. And of course, we celebrate Santa Claus. The spirit of giving on the 25th, which is represented by so many figures throughout history and even in different regions. And it’s just a solid week of fun, magic and excitement. And it’s funny we should bring up gift giving in Santa Claus because every year for us, on the 25th we celebrate Krampus and we go through the local town and we steal all the naughty children and we eat them
Participant #1:
delicious. The naughty kids should have known better. Oh, my goodness. My Christmas this year is going to be so much different. We are in the middle of a move, as you guys know, because I haven’t showed up about it for the last month and a half. So our Christmas this year, our Yule, our winter solstice or Equinox, if you’re asking Maria, it’s going to be pretty chill. I will be doing very similar to you. We do the candles representing the sun’s return and this year we should have a mantle and we should be moved and all that. So we’ll have a mantle and I’m going to be doing something just really small on that with candles in a very similar light. I’ve actually got a gold candle that I found online that I’m going to be hopefully having shipped to the house for that. So I’m really excited about that. I think it’s going to be really nice and just special. And even though our Christmas is going to be very different this year than it has in the past, we are going to be doing very similar, actually, to you guys. We also do a sweets and snacks on the 24th and then it’s been a year, and it’s been a year since the revelation of my Christmas keys. And I will not be disappointing the masses. I will be doing Christmas keys again this year. Temperance and I have been talking about it. Temperance is like, we should stage an intervention. No, I bet you she’s going to do it at this point. Christmas keshe has been a meme for the last year that I literally will never back down from it. See, this is the problem, is that everyone has pushed me so hard at this point that I will never break down or back down from the Christmas keys. I try to make a bank every single year, just like make it more and more quichy every year. Well, here’s the thing I just discovered. Just Egg. Have you heard of that? It is yes, egg replacement. So this year for my Christmas keys, I’m going to use just egg instead of the way I normally do it and I’m going to make it like a normal traditional quiche and we’ll see. Guys, it might be the best thing ever, but Christmas keshe is alive and well and will be happening again. And I posted a recipe actually today because I was on Hem’s podcast talking about Mary Gold’s and somehow Christmas keys got brought up again because of fucking course it did. And I promised that I would post the Christmas keys recipe on her podcast the same day that her podcast episode came out. And so I did today, but I will be posting it again on the 25th. No matter how bad it looks. You have to post a photo. Yeah, I will. I posted a photo two years in a row now. So this will be the third year that Christmas keys comes out. But for us in terms of like the winter solstice and just like, you know, the sun coming back, all that, I actually do not do really any ritual work at that Christmas time because for me it is just important to spend time with my loved ones and to have family time, especially considering my spouse is not a practitioner magic of any kind. I don’t try to force that on him or force him to participate and so instead I force him to participate at the New Year and we do things like yeah, what do you do for the New Year? Setting our intentions for the next year, goals, all that. And we’ll do like a fire burning ceremony on that where we write down our goals and we burn them. We like Bakerry and we will eat twelve grapes as the New Year comes in,
Participant #1:
for me at least, I do more of my ritual, like work actually on New Year’s Eve and not on solstice at all. Funny because it’s exact opposite for me. For New Year’s, my family and I, well, for the Winter solstice we do the rituals and the return of the sun and stuff like that. And usually we do our intention setting then. So for New Years, my family and I actually follow like a German tradition. We have sauerkraut and pork. The sauerkraut gives you a fresh start in the New Year, if you know what I mean. You know, until I know Marie have the cleanest colon on January 1, guys. Exactly. So I also like to do two huge spreads for the upcoming year, like with tarot cards of course, with work, health and family, and the other one deals with the energy of each upcoming month. And I also like doing vision boards and banishment rituals, but that’s usually after because I usually go and visit my family during the New Year, so I have to do that stuff when I get back. So it’s a little bit after the New Year’s, but yeah, we do a tarot spread at the New Year as well. And that is actually something I have historically been able to get Frank to join me in. Although he’s usually like I’m a Catholic boy on New Year’s with me, which is nice, but I don’t do a huge spread for that. Typically we just pick like three cards each and it’s going to be like the big theme of the year, our biggest obstacle of the year and advice for the year ahead. And so it’s nothing crazy. I feel like it’s very important to say if you do a spread and let’s say that a few of them are like bad. Remember, it’s also a whole year. The fee doesn’t change. You can fix it. That’s why the whole reason why you’re doing the spread is that you have the foresight that something’s going to go wrong and you can fix it. I think a lot of people get hung up on that. Yeah. I like to describe tarot as taking a walk on a path and it shows us the path that we are on currently and how that’s going to look. But as the year progresses, progressive little forks will come out, you know what I mean, will present themselves as options, little alternative detours that get us back onto the main path, but we can then choose different options for those temporary things that will just detour us a little bit and then get us right back on that same path. But it will either skip that present outcome or situation or take us to something slightly better or worse. I guess you can also make worse choices and make your life more miserable. That is true. We messed them up. Yeah. Let’s sit in a little bit of reality here. You can be like me, pure chaos and make worse choices.
Participant #1:
I know it’s hard to believe, but it’s true. If my twitter would tell you anything, it says sometimes robin does not think before she acts. I don’t mean to.
Participant #1:
Oh, my goodness. But, yeah, overall, that’s what I’m going to do. I’m going to do some light stuff. Just some light stuff, nothing crazy. What are your goals for next year, madame? Oh, gosh. I was actually just writing this. I just wrote before we got on drafted a blog post about it. I think next year I really have to focus on my health.
Participant #1:
Just kind of like I always say, balance. Every single year I try to get more and more balanced into my life because I always overdo it. I am not an able body person, but I like to think I am. So I think just once again listening to my body and taking time out when I need it and not trying to force anything, but also keep doing the things that I love and keep improving on them, as always. I think this past year I’ve grown as like a photographer and I want to keep growing as a photographer. So pushing my well, I have a lot of goals for next year. Actually. I plan on opening up a tired which brick and mortar store next year. I’m sorry. I’m really excited, too. Obviously we will see what comes of that, but I am really excited about it. There’s a lot of logistical factors, of course, that are going to come in. So saying that that might mean that it doesn’t end up happening for sure until the end of next year. But I’ve already been looking at things and pricing stuff out and I’m really excited about it because we’ll be moved and in England and to be really frank, there’s not a lot of competition in England in terms of culture stores, which is strange, right? So weird. And the ones I have found don’t have like, online stores, so people have to physically come to you to be able to get things, which is silly to me, but anyway, that is the goal. And I’ve got a whole mood board and vibe. I’m really excited. I’m going to have a whole interactive alter space where people can, like, put in petitions to something worth they and I think it’s going to be really cool. I really hope it’s going to be cool, but I’m really excited about it and positive feelings for the future, which is part of the reason why I’m so frustrated with the Scammers that are going on because I have all these really big goals coming out. And if Scammers are already taking advantage of my customers, what’s going to happen when there’s like a physical store? You know what I mean? Yeah, I know. The whole witch community makes their way over to Zero, the social app so we can get away from this crap. Yeah, Maria is trying to make Vero happen, guys. I am. It’s a beautiful app. Anyways, it looks 20 times better than Instagram. That is pretty great. And no ads. Me too. I mostly just think of the fact that there’s no customer service on any of these. That too. Like, I had problems on bureau and they were on it and I was like, wow, what is this? This is customer service. Hello. I have four Instagram things that are still waiting for responses and that they’re getting started, and it’s like, are you kidding me? Instagram recently told me that the account that is literally using my name, Robin Valentine, and has put their name as Tired, which to trick people. Right. They told me that they’re not impersonating me. They’re actually not impersonating me at all. So there you have it. What? Yes. Isn’t that well, what does it have a picture of you holding up your ID? Because that would be kind of hard to get in. I don’t know, but lordy. Anyway,
Participant #1:
so before we end this segment yes. What are some ways that you recommend our listeners celebrate the New Year? Honestly, just doing, like being cozy. I think being cozy and doing whatever what cozy means for you. Wait, are we talking about what they’re doing for the winter solstice or New Year? Because if they’re for the New year, either or I say the New year, but also the same kind of like general time. Okay, I went with something that wasn’t there, but it’s fine. I’ll build on that first. Like, sometimes being cozy to one person means like, family time and stuff like that. But sometimes people don’t have the best home lights or family lives and stuff like that, and they don’t want to build upon that. So do what? Cozy? Like cozy up next and watch a movie. You don’t have to watch like a holiday movie. Like watch Die Hard, which is a holiday movie. It is a holiday movie. And it makes sense. We watch it every year anyway. But for the new year, I think I posted like I might repost it this year on Instagram. I have like, a champagne and intention setting ritual and also a bandit ritual where you drink some champagne if you can have it, if not, you know, like sparkling juice, but where you write off your attention, you drink a little bit of that, and then you banish whatever it needs that you don’t want to bring with you into the next year. What you’ve already learned from that. You’re like, just say fucking in the past because we don’t want you here. How about you? Do you have any? I love that. First of all, I love the champagne thing. So let’s discuss that
Participant #1:
drinking. Yes, please. I am a huge proprietor of Burning Bay Berry on the New Year. It ensures good luck in the coming year. I personally burn just Baybury, but some people will get Bayberry candles. So either or I love them. I also love those candles. The grape thing is like a Mexican thing. I don’t know if other people do this, but you eat twelve grapes, it represents the twelve months of the year. And good luck for each of those. That’s so cute. Plus, grapes are delicious. And I am a really big believer in intention setting versus resolutions. Resolutions are bullshit. They’re meant to be broken. Stop making unrealistic exclamations for yourself. There’s a reason you haven’t been going to the gym, okay? And that’s because going to the gym sucks. So instead of having this resolution where you’re like, I’m going to go to the gym every single day, just have the intention of living a healthier year, moving forward. Because that can take on a bunch of different ideas, a bunch of different forms, and it sets yourself up for far more success than a fucking stupid resolution that you’re just going to break. You’re going to break it. I know you are. I am too. They’re dumb. And I really like writing out my intentions for the year. Putting it in an envelope. Yeah, putting it in an envelope and then putting it behind my altar. Or if you have drawers, put it in a drawer. Put it underneath something where it’s out of sight. Okay? And then next year, when the new year starts, you pull the old intentions out and you kind of just look back where you were at the beginning of the year. You know, were you able to kind of allow yourself this ability to create that vibe that you wanted for yourself and then you start the process all over again? I think it’s nice. I also think it’s good for selfreflection and growth. Because when we set these goals of being let’s say we’ll use the healthy thing again, right? Of being healthier healthy takes so many different forms. And although maybe at the very beginning of the year, your idea was physical health, let’s say over the years, that may have transformed into something like your mental health being really important and more value, you know? So it’s nice to see kind of where your mind was the year before, how that kind of transformed over the year. And that doesn’t mean even if you weren’t able to manage it, that doesn’t mean that you’re a failure. It just means that your life had different paths for you at that time. And what can we learn from that in moving forward? Exactly? I find most of the time my intentions or goals that did not work out actually had pretty great reasons, and I’ve learned from them, and I can utilize them in my future. It wasn’t for nothing. It’s kind of like the six of swords with the swords on the boat and you’re moving on to next phase in your life sort of thing and bringing the knowledge with you. But yeah. I really love everything you said, and I completely agree. Yay.
Participant #1:
What is stirring your cauldron right now? Oh, thank you so much for asking. Very sensual. That was very sensual. Thank you. Yeah, I am erect. Here is my $4 a minute. You are amazing. So what is during my cauldron is just a general thing from the year in the year past, which is our general growth on the Patreon and also here on the podcast. We really appreciate everybody who listens and is here, and we really appreciate the people who go on the Patreon to support us. Even at that $1 marker, it’s all noticed, it’s all appreciated, and we really love you guys so much. Yeah, it really helps. It really does. And because of this community, because of the growth that we’ve seen, we’re able to make this podcast happen, and we just really appreciate it. And we love you guys. Listeners, the spotify charts, right? We did. We were on the German charts for five weeks in a row, and we were in the top 100 for spirituality and religion in the United States, which is a marked improvement from last year. And really just we can’t say it enough, guys, we really appreciate you, we love you, and we wouldn’t be here without you. So thank you. Thank you.
Participant #1:
So, Maria, what if not stirring her cold room this week? I missed that sensual voice. Yeah, I know. I thought about sending you voice memos where I was just whispering to you. It just makes you feel better. But I don’t like you that much. I much appreciate it.
Participant #1:
Fine. What is not stirring my culture right now is, like, how many people feel like they have the right to tell someone they’re doing something wrong within their practice. No. Obviously there are exceptions to this role, but I’m not talking about those. I’m talking about, like, personal correspondences, having different belief systems or even ways of doing things, especially based on culture and just basically jumping to conclusions before not knowing the whole story. As usual, I see this a lot on TikTok. Someone will see another person doing something one way and holy shit, now it’s the only way to do that particular spell which is honestly just so baffling. Like for instance, I posted a video, not a spell mind that showed a broom on my door hanging right side up and you would have thought I was inviting all the bad spirits into my home thanks to that broom. I appreciate people were concerned, but that broom is spelled in a different way. It is meant to bring in abundance and warmth and good fortune into my home. I spelled it that way. Now I have threshold spells that keep my home protected and believe me, I have my guard up. It’s just the amount of 100% certainty that people have that others are doing something completely wrong and then dragging them for it. Also for another. For instance, the lovely and hilarious Michelle that was a guest star here on one episode got told that her raw honey was lard and she was yeah that she was using to make her honey. Instead of saying like wait, hey, why is that processes they saw raw honey and they went that’s actually lard. Yes. Instead of like hey why does the honey look like that? Instead this person was like that isn’t honey, that is large, what are you doing? This is only like Google Docs is fucking free. When somebody says I’m using raw honey and you go that looks like lard, then go to the handy smartphone that you are going to comment that ridiculous comment on and Google raw honey and then go, wow, look at that, it looks like fucking lard because that’s a raw honey looks like oh God, sorry, I don’t mean to interject it. And then use a particular herb and a spell and they’re like, well I wouldn’t use it for that. And that’s like that’s great for you, that’s awesome, congratulations. But obviously if it works for someone and it’s a legit reason why they’re using it, just leave it alone. Like obviously this isn’t just a tik tok problem or even like a witch problem. Some cases, you know, people just don’t talk to each other anymore. No one wants to understand anything. And some people just don’t see how narrow their way of thinking has become. Like people feel justified to say anything online and be complete, be ignorant and assholes. And I always like, I always tell my clients, witchcraft is meant to take you out of a box that society has put you in, so why in the hell would you put yourself in another? But like yes
Participant #1:
to conclusions. We are like don’t yell at experts. You just try to not yell at experts. That is not that hard. Yeah, it’s not that hard. That’s so ridiculous. I can’t believe that. I am literally baffled hearing that. That’s insane. The rest of the day, I will be thinking about that many circumstances, like, where people just feel justified to write that sort of stuff.
Participant #1:
It’s okay. My favorite example of exactly what you’re describing is mommy bloggers. Now, I personally do not wish to put my kids on the Internet, but there is absolutely I want to just preface I’m not dissing anybody who chooses to, okay? It’s my preference. There’s nothing wrong with other people’s preference. Everybody’s doing their fucking best. I’m not here to shade moms, okay? Moms are tired, and y’all are rocking it. But there was somebody who was a mommy blogger, and everything that she posted, people were, like, commenting on it, being like, your kid’s too young for this, or they’re too big for that or whatever. And she posted, and she was just like, I am just so glad that Ticktock has so much free medical advice. I have been paying for insurance this entire time for her pediatrician to tell us what to do, but I’m going to cancel that now because there are so many Tik Tok doctors that are just giving away this information for free. I don’t need a doctor. And that just made me laugh because it’s just like, you don’t know somebody’s entire story. You don’t know what’s going on there. You don’t know what the professionals are saying behind the scenes, and yet you’re going to fucking say something like
Participant #1:
that conviction that you’re like, that’s actually hard. That is you know where I see it a lot? I see it when people post, like, pictures of their Tarot spreads or something like that. They don’t even say anything about their spread. They’re just posting a picture of it, and they’re like, wow, it looks like you’re going through a hard time. It’s like, oh, my God, you have no idea what that spread is about. Or if they use specific prompts, a prompt, and the cards around it can completely change everything. So you’re, like, reading into situations. You have no fucking idea. One time I posted a TikTok or it was either Tik Tok or was a real I don’t remember at this point. And it was like, just like, oh, come to work with me, right? And I was, like, lighting the incense of my altar, lighting my candles. I made a cup of coffee, and I was just pulling cards for a client for my day job, right? And everybody was fucking commenting on it. All these people were commenting on it being like the Wheel of Fortune reverse, they’re going to die, or some crazy shit like that. And I’m just like, it is not that serious. I just specifically remember that client. What they had asked about was a yes or no question. That was it. It wasn’t like this deep fucking thing. It was a yes or no question. And you’re like, sat here projecting these insane things to it. And it’s like, the answer is just no. Guys, it’s a yes or no. I’m pretty sure they were like, should I cut bangs or something? It’s not obviously that, but it was something like that. And I was like, oh, no. The card say no. It wasn’t that deep. Like, relax. Oh, my God. Is Bob into me? Like, no, sorry, I’m not seeing it. And they’re like, you’re going to fucking die. Your entire life will collapse before you. And you’re like, wow, calm down. And smack is serious. I love posting my spreads to my stories because I love my terrace cards, and, like, they’re so pretty. So of course I want to post, like, a picture of my spreads. But I remember when my DMs were turned on, I would get so many, like, what would you call it? Like, oh, no. Tarot experts thinking that they knew what was going on. You have no idea what’s going on. They actually do. And they know more than you in every house. It’s like, guys, I’m just enjoying my cards and having and I just wanted to show the picture to you. I don’t need help. I’m okay. If I have help, I’m going to ask Robin, not you. Yeah, she’s going to come to me. Okay. Because I’m hot and Texas what’s not. Stirring our cauldron was a lot, and that’s okay. We needed a good ranch so we can go into the new year. Yeah. Throw away your lard, guys. All right. Even if it says Rob’s money, you put the Lord away. Stop saying it’s, honey. Stop saying it’s, honey. End the honey lies now.

Well, if you’re listening to this, this might be your first week. If it is. Hi. How are you? We talk about shops, creators, photographers, artists that we’re loving right now. These are things that we found organically, organically, organically. And just missions open now for the coffee talk part of the podcast. But it’s not an invitation for you to send us your business.
Participant #1:
Stop it. And sometimes no answer is an answer. So there you go. Anyway, that being said, Maria, who are you loving right now? So I’m actually loving they’re called Japanese boards. And the one that I found is from Modern Conjure. They were talking about the discord. Exactly. Like, someone got it. And now it’s on my wish list for the holidays. They’re really cute. Like, they’re little boys with, like, different symbols and stuff on them. And each symbol means something specific. Or even you go off of your intuition, personal correspondence, whatever, and you have, like, three coffee beans, and you throw them onto the board. And if they’re right side up or upside down, they mean something particular and they’re close to something. Or if it lands on a particular symbol, it’s just really neat and really cute. I love coffee. I love divination. And it’s like a MatchMate in heaven. And I want it. And if my wife doesn’t get it for me, I am getting it next month for myself. I love that. I love that so much. So if you’re listening, wife, just know that you fuck this up. It’s just another way that Robin is creeping in and replacing you. So think about that. I’m just kidding. She would literally kick my ass into a million pieces. Please don’t hurt me. Thank you. I love you. Cars lives a teddy bear. Yeah, it might be a derby chick, but she couldn’t would be mad. She’s scary, guys. She’s scary. Scarlet is terrifying. Everyone be afraid for me. My life is in danger.

How about for years? Who are you loving for me? I am loving this little Instagram account I found, but they have a shop called Abby Toads. And specifically, they have this set of enamel pins that are a bunch of different little mushroom characters that are, like, playing music, and there’s, like a little grim Reaper one that’s like a desktop. And oh, my God, they’re so cute. And I have not been loving on little mushroom friends or like, lapel pins in general in a really long time. So, yeah, I’m pretty jazzed about it. I will be purchasing them for myself. Really cute. I love them. Frank, I know you’re editing this. If you’re looking for a stocking stuffer for your beautiful, gorgeous, flawless wife, you could go Toads on Abby, period, toads on Instagram and just pick up if we have some lapel pins. Yeah. Or I will come in and steal your wife, since we’re in a committed relationship. Actually, guys, really big announcement to make. We are officially dating. You heard it here first. That is a lie. But apparently we give people the impression that we are literally in a monogamous relationship. And I love that stirring part. It throws everyone off. It is so maria and I are horny for each other in life and in love.
