Empty Bottles

Sometimes, we long for things that aren't good for us. Sometimes, we need to make space for new things to come in. This week, we discuss how we feel empty inside, what it means, and what to do.

Concept illustration of empty bottles on a windowsill.

A line from one of my favorite Grateful Dead songs poignantly describes romantic relationships in which connection and desire are strong, yet compatibility is weak. “It’s like a practical joke played on us by our maker, empty bottles that can’t be filled.”

I’ve been thinking about those empty bottles. We all know that feeling of longing for something that isn’t what we really want or need. I have started using the term ‘empty bottles’ to describe any deep longing we might have that does not serve us but makes us feel empty inside.

Many people feel empty inside at times. That feeling doesn’t come only from star-crossed love relationships. People who act in destructive and hurtful ways to others often do so because they desperately try to fill that empty space inside them and don’t know how to do it. When dealing with people like that, it is helpful to understand that we can’t fill their empty spaces for them, and it is foolish to try.

Sometimes, it is wise to consciously allow for an empty space in our lives because nature abhors a vacuum. If we are focused and open, the energy we need will rush in to fill that empty space.

It is hard to long for something we cannot have, and it is unsettling to find ourselves longing for something we cannot quite name. If we can be aware of the empty spaces within ourselves, we can find the correct energy to fill them. If we are aware that we are longing for something that doesn’t serve us, we can consciously remove that useless receptacle from our emotional body using affirmations and visualization.

Empty and Full in Tarot

When learning and reading tarot, I believe it is important to feel a card's energy, as well as to know its keywords and traditional associations. For example, some cards are fast, and some cards are slow. Some cards are happy, and some are sad.

Which cards are full, and which cards feel empty?

In the Minor Arcana, the Nines speak to me of fullness. Of course, the Nine of Pentacles and the Nine of Cups are full of something desirable, while the other two Nines are full of difficulty.

The Four of Swords speaks of emptiness to me and often heralds the absence of something or someone.

When you look at your tarot cards, which ones feel empty, and which ones feel full to you?

Making Magic

Did you know that many people use bottles and jars in magic? You can use small bottles that can be carried or worn or larger bottles that can be buried.

All you need to do is assemble the ingredients for your spell. You might use herbs, flowers, words written on paper, pictures, and stones.

If you are banishing something from your life, assemble your bottle and bury it, or put it in the freezer. If there is something you want to attract to your life, wear the bottle or display it prominently so you can see it every day.

Confidence

This week, we discuss the importance of being confident in ourselves and the pitfalls of putting confidence where it does not belong.

Concept illustration of jungle animals sitting on a tree branch.

The concept of confidence comes up very often in tarot readings for clients. I imagine it comes up for people doing self-readings as well.

Confidence is important. If we lack personal confidence, we are not likely to be successful. If we can’t muster confidence, we might blame our lack of success on external factors. For example, “I can’t get a job because no one is hiring,” or “There are no people I am interested in dating anywhere in my city.”

While there may be few available opportunities for us, a lack of confidence will cause us to believe that the number of opportunities is and will always be zero.

A lack of self-confidence can lead to negative self-talk. This is a hurtful vicious cycle.

However, when we embrace confidence, our chances of achieving our personal and professional desires significantly improve. Confidence has a magnetic effect, enhancing our appeal.

Sometimes, we put our trust in unreliable people or ideas that offer us comfort. When we do this, we are placing confidence where we should not. Sometimes, we do this because it feels easier to have confidence in others than in ourselves. When we do not have confidence in ourselves, we are likely to trust the wrong things.

We need to ask ourselves why we trust others more than we trust ourselves. Why are we not worthy of our own confidence?

When we understand our value, skills, abilities, and worth, we can be appropriately confident in ourselves and judicious about who and what we trust.

One trick to developing confidence is to ‘fake it ‘til you make it.’ That’s right – pretend you are confident. Act the way you would act if you were confident.

Very quickly, that fake confidence becomes the real deal.

Many people lack confidence because of the ways others have treated them. We must never let others define or dictate what is true for and about us.

Can You Be Confident in Your Intuition?

Here is a pet peeve of mine. Tarot readers and spiritual teachers love to tell people to trust their intuition. Yet, those teachers never seem to share information on how to recognize intuition or separate the voice of intuition from the voices of fear and desire.

It's a common narrative I encounter. People tell me their intuition led them astray while they tried to practice that trust. But here's my viewpoint: your intuition wasn't wrong. You wrongly perceived an idea or a feeling as intuition. The very definition of intuition is that it will never be wrong.

How can we confidently trust that what we feel is our intuition? I don’t think we always can or should. Yet, we can still be confident in our connection to guidance and in our divining abilities.

I hear many tips from people about recognizing intuition that feel misleading. Some suggestions include always trusting your first thought or that it is always true if an idea comes to you three times or more.

Establishing hard and fast rules about something as amorphous as intuition, psychic development, or spirit communication feels like a mistake to me.

Intuitive work, divination, and mediumship are about being in the flow of energy. That flow stops as soon as we focus on rules and admonitions.

The easiest way to be a confident intuitive or psychic is to accept that you might sometimes be wrong.

This practice starts with using words like “might” and “may” while remaining open to the flow of information that offers clarification.

This keeps us out of our ego, whose attachment to being right can close off our intuition.

When we listen for our internal intuitive voice, we must listen for the quietest whisper. So often, the voices of fear and desire shout. We must quiet those voices to hear our intuition.

Intuition can come in a moment, but it can also come as part of a process. When we give ourselves time to divine, meditate, check in with ourselves, or puzzle something out, we are more likely to find the truth we can trust.

There are many ways to use magic to increase personal confidence. Here are a few of my favorites.

Use tarot cards! Which tarot cards represent confidence to you? I like the Sun, the Six of Wands, the Hierophant, and the Nine of Pentacles. You can carry tarot images with you to use their energy to boost your confidence.

Use color! Yellow and red are colors that can increase your confidence. Wearing these colors can help. Burning candles of this color can help.

Use stones! Carnelian and citrine are two of the many stones that can help us increase our confidence. Pop one in your pocket or purse to help you be confident throughout the day.

Authenticity

What does it mean to be authentic?

Social media influencers clowning for the camera.

There is much conversation about what it means to be authentic as a human being. When it comes to the finer things in life, we crave authenticity. We want the real experience, not a pale copy. In the tarot world specifically, the internet is full of opportunities to purchase pirated knock-off tarot decks at the expense of the artists and creators. In this case, authenticity is the only ethical choice.

But what does it mean when we say a person is authentic? Some people claim authenticity as a tactic of manipulation. Others enjoy being cruel in the guise of “just being real.” Those attempts to use the concept of authenticity as a shield or a tool can sometimes be easy to spot. Other times, we may fall prey to those hurtful manipulations.

Some people enjoy presenting themselves with many cosmetic enhancements. Does that mean they aren’t authentic? I would argue that part of authenticity is learning how we want to present ourselves to the world and being brave enough to do that.

Authentic people have a genuine nature that makes them feel trustworthy and approachable, grounding us in a world often filled with facades.

People who naturally seem authentic know themselves and are comfortable with themselves. We are all always a work in progress, and authentic people know this and are willing to do the work.

Authentic people allow themselves to evolve and seek personal change. Reassessing a position or belief and changing is part of being authentic.

Authenticity is the natural outgrowth of self-awareness and self-acceptance.

Self-awareness is critical, and divination can be an excellent tool for it. However, there is a danger that the journey toward self-awareness can turn into self-absorption. Our journey to self-awareness cannot happen in a vacuum. Our self-awareness must lead us to compassion and help us understand how we want to show up for others.

When we have that self-awareness, we can be authentic.

How can you find out what is happening in the lounges?
I try to keep you informed through this weekly newsletter and social media posts. However, it can be difficult because new lounge sessions are constantly popping up.

If you are on Facebook, join the StaarCon Community Group. It is a private group, and lounge sessions are always posted there.

For your convenience, I also post all the lounge sessions in the easily accessible Accelevents lobby.

Coming up soon in the lounges, we have a focus on Court cards! On May 5, María Alviz Hernando presents Court Cards for Dummies in her lounge. I did not take this into consideration when I scheduled my Court card class for April 21, but I think it is divinely inspired. We will have the opportunity to learn two different perspectives on Court cards.

StaarCon 5

At StaarCon, most presentations are 45 minutes long. Intensive presentations occur in two or three parts. Over the past two years, we have offered intensives on Fridays only. For StaarCon 5, intensives will be offered on all three days. Some of our intensive presenters will be Gita Rash, Marion Kirk, Peter Coe, and Heather Gaffney-Darnell.

Heather is joining us for the first time! Heather, a North Carolina tarot reader and energy worker, will lead us in a deep and playful exploration of our inner selves called “Soul-Spelunking with Tarot.” We look forward to meeting Heather and learning from her, and we are excited about all the intensive learning and experiences we are planning for StaarCon 5.

Finding Your Authentic Tarot Voice

Whether you are an aspiring professional reader, tarot author, influencer, or simply working to be a good reader for your friends and family, you must find your authentic voice.

Even if your use of tarot is only personal, you must be able to deliver that reading to yourself.

Even if you use other methods of divination, you still need to find your authentic voice.

Practice and patience are essential here, but I have one tip that may help you.

When you read for yourself, do it aloud. Speak the reading aloud to yourself as if you were giving it to another person.

Creating a video of your reading can be a valuable tool, even if it's just the cards and your voice. Over time, this practice will create a fabulous video tarot journal for you and allow for self-reflection and improvement.

When you practice speaking your self-readings, you will notice two things.

First, you will be inspired to say things as energy and information flows. This means you are tapping into greater wisdom.

Second, you will begin to hear your authentic voice as a diviner. This is an excellent step toward developing the tools you need to be a proficient reader for yourself and others.

Making Magic

Lack of self-love and confidence is a significant cause of lack of personal authenticity.

How can we work with energy to make self-love and confidence easier?

We can change energy by being physically close to colors, crystals, and cards.

It's crucial to approach this with clear intention and full acknowledgment.

Which color do you associate with confidence?

Which color do you associate with self-love?

Wear clothing of those colors and acknowledge your intention as you do.

I like to use yellow for confidence and blue for self-love. You can burn colored candles as well.

Many stones help with confidence and self-love. I particularly like citrine and carnelian for confidence and rose quartz and sodalite for self-love. You can carry stones with you. Touch them from time to time and affirm their purpose.

Which cards do you associate with self-love and confidence?

I like the Nine of Pentacles, Seven of Wands, Hierophant, and Chariot for confidence. I like the Lovers and the Two of Cups for self-love.

We can wear tarot images or carry them with us. We can decorate our space with them or place a special card on an altar with intention.

These are simple ways to use magic to increase your ability to love and have confidence in yourself. Then, you can more easily become your most authentic self.

The Power of Yes and No

Yes and no are words we learn when we are young. Yet, we sometimes fear using these words as adults.

Illustration of a woman meditating on a dock with visible aura.

What are the most magically powerful words in your vocabulary?

While every spiritual practice has sacred words and phrases, I believe the most magical words most of us know are words we learned very young and use daily. Those words are yes and no.

As children, we learn to say ‘yes, please’ and ‘no, thank you.’ At the same time, many of us also learned to hide our preferences and distrust our decisions. As a result, many adults are uncomfortable stating a preference or making a decision.

Yet, when we are clear about what we like and don’t like, what we want and don’t want, and what we will and won’t do, we are entirely in our power. When we refuse to make a decision or state a preference, we relinquish our power.

When we express our desires directly, some people may think we are abrasive and abrupt. Many of us were taught that it is inappropriate for people (especially women) to express opinions and desires.

What happens when we learn to trust our decisions and claim our desires?

When we actively commit to saying yes to what we want and no to what we don’t want, we become more creative and powerful. At that moment, we begin working with the Universe to create the life we want.

I am becoming aware that poetry and divination have an inextricable connection. Many divination systems have historical ties to poetry, and Mother Shipton and Nostradamus prophesied in verse.

The connections between poetry and tarot specifically are significant. In this presentation, we will discover innovative ways to connect with tarot and spirit by unlocking our inner oracular poets.

I hope to see you at StaarCon 5, either in person or online.

Yes and No Questions with Tarot

Can we use tarot to answer yes/no questions?

Some tarotists believe it is better to rephrase questions rather than try to interpret tarot cards within the yes/no binary.

Some readers prefer to use a pendulum for yes/no questions.

Others have a specific spread or technique for yes/no answers.

Mary K. Greer has popularized an old Yes-No-Advice technique that involves the Wheel of Fortune and seven cards drawn at random. Several readers I know find this technique very effective.

Like most of my practice, my yes/no technique is more loosey-goosey.

I ask the question and pull some cards. It’s that simple.

I know that not every yes/no question will have a clear answer. But I also know the cards I pull will offer helpful information, whether or not they land on a clear yes or no.

I consider the context of the question and see how the cards I pull speak to it. Sometimes, I can see a clear yes or no. Other times, I will see aspects of the situation that will help my client understand what is going on or what they need to do, even if I cannot answer their question with a simple yes or no.

Making Magic

The yes/no binary offers us our simplest form of magic. What do you want to say yes to, and to what would you like to say no?

There is an easy way to use candle magic to welcome the things you want and dismiss the things you don’t.

All magic requires visualization. That is, seeing your results in your mind’s eye.

Using a candle helps with this.

Focus on the flame if you are doing candle magic to welcome something. As the flame grows, so shall whatever it is you are invoking.

Focus on the candle wax if you are using magic to dismiss or banish something. As the candle diminishes, so shall whatever you are banishing.
