I bought some new amethysts since mine still hasnt recovered...I had a massive migraine again today, and so now I have ANOTHER black amethyst.
So I did a money spell last night. It was the first time in YEARS that I actively did so. I had my husband help. I had to use the bathroom to cast, but it was fine. It was actually eerie. You could feel the magic in there. For the spell I used 2 green candles and a coin of high demonination.
That was the strange part - the coin. I had planned on using a quarter as that was the highest I had, but then my hunny came home with not 1 but 2 gold dollars. The spell was meant to be.
So we cast last night, and now we wait.
We went to his bosses house to do some work this morning (2 hrs) and he made $100. That went to grocery shopping. that was $179.
So Disco did a runes and tarot readng for me last night and this is what she said, along with the fact that I should get some additional input:
I pulled up this photo and concentrated on the pair of you: http://wa4.images.onesite.com/wiccancat.covenspace.com/large/100_2143.jpg
My first scry was with runes. I use runes most often because I can understand the symbols and read them better than I do tarot cards. For this reading I used the method where I hold all the runes in my hands and then dump them onto the cloth. Included with them is a small stone (which I thought for a long time was a lapis lazuli, but which turned out to be a howlite dyed blue, but which I still use as it seems to be convinced that it is really a lapis) which points out a few other special runes that it touches after it lands, runes which I take to be the subconscious intonations of the answers I get (ex. sarcasm).
My first question to the demon was "Who are you?"
I got: Othala, Thurisaz, Kenaz (murkstave), Mannaz (murkstave), Nauthiz, and Wyrd.
Stone touched: Dagaz, Wynn, Fehu (all murkstave).
I read:
House-based thorn, working at night, creating strife among people.
In the morning my victims suffer from unhappiness. (Fehu murkstave indicates lack of personal wealth, which is evidently a side-effect of what you're going through concerning this demon.)
The letters I got were: O, Th, K or C, M, N, D, P or W, F.
My second question: Where do you come from?
I got: Uruz (m), Laguz (m), Hagalaz, Tyr (m), Jera, Algiz, Nauthiz, Ehwaz, Mannaz (m), Wyrd.
Stone didn't touch any runes.
Might spell a name or place: U, L, H, T, J or Y, Z, N, E, M.
I read: Lack of strength or inability to prove self, lack of healing, lack of direction, lack of support. Saturnian influences, fenced in, basic confusion and inability to bring about cooperation between the forces around you.
My third question: What do you want?
I got: Uruz, Beorch (m), Ehwaz (m), Othala (m), Gebo, Ansuz (m), Dagaz.
Stone touched: Raidho.
I read: Exchange/sacrifice? at the end of Autumn/start of the Winter? tearing apart of home and family? possibly having to move away.
Letters: U, B, E, O, G, A, D.
My fourth question: Why are you doing this?
I got: Mannaz, Dagaz, Beorch (m), Raidho, Jera, Nauthiz, Gebo, Hagalaz, Ansuz.
Stone touched: Kenaz (m), Wynn.
I read: These are all runes that indicate happiness, harmony, and stability. Perhaps its purpose is to create instability.
Letters: M, D, B, R, J or Y, N, G, H, A, K or C, W or P.
Then I got out the tarot cards and attempted a reading for the house-based thorn itself.
I got:
Situation: Page of Coins (M)
Obstacles: 2 Swords (M)
Past: King of Swords (M)
Future: 4 Swords
Ambitions: 10 Cups (M)
Influences: Hierophant
Strength: 6 Coins (M)
Help: 10 Coins
Hopes/Fears: Sun (M)
Outcome: Queen of Swords (M)
I read:
It is an irresponsible, "young" demon that enjoys breaking up things. It seems to believe that any problems it creates can be solved by pointing them out in an argumentative setting, so it tries to create an environment where its victims are led to believe that the only way out of their problems is to approach them in a peaceable manner. (ie. It wants to be in control of its victims' anger. If its victims find their own reasons to be angry, it will lose its power over them.) It was born from a sense of nonobjectiveness and prejudice, possibly from a father figure (your husband). The near future appears to be a period of needful rest and recuperation, possibly after a time of great strife (dunno who this is for, you or the demon. If you make it yours, then the demon might experience a different future?). Its main ambition is to create a broken family. Its influence comes from its victims focusing on mundane, worldly manners (stock market, blah!!!). It gets its strength from the imbalance caused by selfishness (I often forget that in magickal work, sometimes I have to "prime the pump", so to speak, to get the energies moving in the direction I want them to go; if I'm hoping to earn more money, in my wish for money I have to give some away). It appears to be getting help or aid from material possessions such as family heirlooms (dunno exactly what this means; might it be attached to some object in your house?). The Hopes/Fears part confuses me: it came up as loss of youthfulness and inner light (dunno if this is a hope or a fear, maybe a hope for you and a fear for itself?). The final outcome for its endeavors is a lack of desire to speak out, or perhaps a dumb, silent, uninspired woman.
I'm not very good at tarot, so you can take this reading (or both of them, if you want) and present them to any others you know who do tarot or runes, and see what they get out of it. In fact, I recommend you do so, because it's always good to get a second, third, or even fourth opinion on important matters like this.
