Exasperated witchy life

 I wonder if I should try using my Marigold Tarot tonight, or if I should put it through yet another few days of cleansing and retuning because it has been SO bitchy lately. It’s a gorgeous deck! I love the art and symbolism! I need it to stop being cranky!

So far the deck has:

• Been wrapped in silk ribbon dabbed with High John the Conqueror oil.
• Had antique keys, sprigs of rosemary, and iron nails tucked into the silk ribbon.
• Been un- and -rewrapped in silk ribbon, then tucked under my pillow for three nights.

And now is currently resting atop a small iron cauldron filled with salt and dried lilac.

Hopefully it's not being cranky because the world is going to shit.... how are your other decks working?

My Kipling West Halloween deck is being as chirpy as always, and the Ophedia Rosa deck is being slightly less elliptical, so I think it’s just the Marigold deck.

For what it's worth, my first response to this was "add vanilla"

that's some serious stubborn there. Usually the under the pillow trick works.

How are you with sunlight for general cleansing? If your response is to hiss and mutter, "Avoid, avoid!" then never mind, but otherwise, leave the deck, wrapped or not, in a patch of sunshine for an hour or two.

Conversely if there's a windowsill where moonlight falls you can put it there for an evening--H'ween is supposed to have a lovely full moon, if you can wait for it. But any degree of moonlight should help.
