Egregoros

I will never understand how fashy types follow rq me I'm a dumb foid jewess dyke into the sanatana dharma who isnt even funny

also I think meat is murder (but I occassionally partake, esp in fish)

You're beautiful and valid. Would you like to grab coffee sometime?

@newmodel @georgia
>valid
oh

I thought that was an adjective liberals said to each other, like 'award'

@newmodel @dieulast politics should be based on dharma

file this under posts I shouldnt have made...

Now I don't know about dharma but I would like to get to know you.

@newmodel well my current autistic obsession is collecting tarot lenormand and other oracle decks

What makes the lenormand tarot deck so special compared to the others?

@newmodel I shouldve included commas in my reply. all divinatory decks are technically oracle decks, but tarot is one system of cartomantic divination and lenormand is another. kipper is another, and sibilla. but oracle decks in common parlance are basically anything that isnt tarot. oracle decks can also be yijing based, but yijing is traditionally done with yarrow stalks not with cards. I could go on. I like collecting decks its fun!

That's interesting, and collecting oracle and tarot decks sounds fun. I didn't know they made card decks for stick-and-stalk divination. I grew up in a heavily chinese area, so I'm familiar with the green tea stalk form. Is there a card version of that?

@newmodel can't tell if youre talking about tasseography (tea leaf divination) or another form of divination I dont know about? ive heard of matchstick divination and yarrow stalk divination both of which are chinese but not sure what you mean..

Tasseography, that would have to be it. Is there not taxonomic grouping for methods of divination based on the medium?

@newmodel it's just called tasseography pretty much. although I guess the distinction is not irrelevant because its usually done with black tea!

So is there an oracle deck for tasseography?

@newmodel yes there is! its a round deck (somewhat unique) with 200 cards! (incredibly unique) https://www.amazon.com/Tea-Leaf-Fortune-Cards-Hepburn/dp/1572816708

@newmodel its not on my rather expansive deck wishlist cause I figure its better to just do tasseography

There's a motivating factor there with the tea. Have you ever tried Chinese teas?

@newmodel hmmm, I mustve at least once. I really like matcha. chai tea is great too.
