    Thinning Veils & Shedding Skins: Halloween, Samhain & Día de los Muertos

    Welcome back, besties! Grab your favorite warm beverage, make sure your stove isn't unattended, and settle in. In this episode, Kupkake goes off on a glorious history tangent involving label-printer mishaps, Jenn brings us back to earth with a deep-dive tarot pull, and we wrap it all up with an autumn simmer pot recipe that will make your house smell divine. The Evolution of Halloween, Samhain & Gate Night Ever wondered how we went from ancient Druids dodging murderous highland fairies to adults getting drunk in Victorian corsets and kids reassembling horse wagons on barn roofs? Kupkake went down a massive 600 AD rabbit hole—accidentally printing notes on label paper—to break down the chaotic evolution of spooky season. Samhain & Fairy Terror: Ancient Celts viewed late October as a "nothing season" where the veil lifted. People wore inside-out animal skins and smeared charcoal on their faces so spirits and property-destroying fairies wouldn't abduct them or leave changelings. Stingy Jack & The Original Jack-o'-Lantern: A shady guy named Jack tricked the Devil twice, got banned from Heaven and Hell, and ended up wandering eternity with hellfire inside a carved turnip. 1890s "Gate Night": Long before modern trick-or-treating, teenagers would take farmers' gates off their hinges, disassemble farm wagons, and rebuild them on barn roofs. Victorian Boozy Divination: Victorian Halloween was strictly for adults—think lavish masquerades, heavy drinking, tarot readings, and apple bobbing. Día de los Muertos: A deeply beautiful week-long tradition centered on love, memory, and respect—honoring ancestors with ofrendas, marigolds, music, pan de muerto, and family stories. "Veils, Roots & Rebirth" Spread Jenn takes the lead while Kupkake weighs in as we close out the season with a powerful 3-card collective tarot pull ("Veils, Roots & Rebirth") to help you step across the threshold, release outdated masks, and tap into ancestral wisdom as we head into the darker half of the year. Card 1: The Veil (Samhain) — What is being revealed as the boundary between worlds thins? Focuses on liminal spaces, unseen messages, intuition, and transition. Card 2: The Offering (Día de los Muertos) — What wisdom or gift are your ancestors asking you to honor? Focuses on ancestral strength, inherited gifts, and lineage. Card 3: The Mask (Halloween / All Hallows' Eve) — What skin, identity, or mask are you shedding? Focuses on transformation, releasing outdated roles, and true self-expression. The "Please Don't Burn Your House Down" Autumn Simmer Pot A simple kitchen-witchery ritual to make your space smell like peak autumn cozy: What You’ll Need: Sliced orange & lemon, a generous fistful of cloves, a shameless amount of ground cinnamon, marigolds (fresh or dried), and lots of water! How to Conjure: Toss everything into a pot with plenty of water, set it on low, and let the fall magic float through your home. The Golden Rule: Keep an eye on your water level so you don't end up with charred fruit fused to the bottom of your pot!

    Mercury Retrograde is Digging Up Dirt (And We’re Bringing a Shovel)

    Mercury Retrograde is officially digging up dirt—and this week, we’re bringing a shovel and a tarot deck. With the Sun diving headfirst into Scorpio, Venus picking fights with Pluto, and 5 planets currently in retrograde, the universe isn't asking if you're ready to look at what's under the rug. It's pulling up the floorboards. Thankfully, the Taurus Full Moon is showing up like an absolute anchor to keep us from spiraling into the underworld. In this episode: What Planet's in the Microwave: Surviving Venus square Pluto, Scorpio season shifts, and a whopping 5 planets in retrograde. The Depth & Anchor Tarot Spread: Here is a 5-card spread tailored specifically to harness this week's cosmic shifts: the Sun entering Scorpio, the Hunter’s Moon in Taurus, and Mercury stationing retrograde. This layout balances deep emotional exposure with physical grounding and practical mental boundaries. Card Positions & Prompts: 1. Scorpio Depth: What Scorpio season is pulling up from the underground. The Focus: What hidden truth, emotional pattern, or unsaid desire is resurfacing as the Sun enters Scorpio? What was buried that now demands to be witnessed rather than managed? 2. Taurus Full Moon — Physical Anchor: What body connection/boundary to solidify The Focus: Where do you need to claim tangible ease, physical comfort, or unwavering self-worth? What sensory habit or solid routine keeps you grounded while the waters shift around you? 3. Taurus Full Moon — Physical Release: What material/somatic tension to drop The Focus: What physical weight, habit of control, or phantom obligation are you holding in your nervous system out of routine? What can be safely returned to the earth? 4. Mercury Rx Shield: How to navigate mental shifts without spiraling The Focus: Where can you pause before reacting during Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio? What mental boundary or communication practice keeps you rooted in observation rather than over-analyzing? 5. The Cazimi Core: The integrated wisdom waiting at the center The Focus: What is the overarching truth that unites what you're releasing with what you're stepping into? The core realization of your own value once the noise clears. Cabinet Conjuring: Kupkake’s zero-fuss pantry ritual using coffee, salt, and honey to shield your nervous system and lock in your sanity. Grab your favorite deck, light a candle, and let’s dive into the dirt.

    The Cornell 7, Lizzie Borden & Aileen Wuornos: Manufacturing the "Monster"

    Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussions of physical and sexual violence, severe trauma, systemic abuse, and capital punishment. When society strips women of their autonomy, destroys their support systems, and blocks every safe exit, what happens when they finally snap? In Part 2 of our series, Jenn and Kupkake examine how true crime media, pop culture, and the legal system manufacture "monsters" rather than addressing the systemic abuse that drove them to the edge. We look at the new Netflix series Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story to unpack Victorian gaslighting and wealthy isolation, contrasting it with the story of Aileen Wuornos—a traumatized, working-class survival sex worker abandoned by every legal and social safety net. We explore who gets empathy, who gets executed, and how the patriarchy turns female self-defense and survival rage into stylized entertainment. In This Episode: Lizzie Borden: Wealthy privilege, "proper womanhood," and the gilded pressure cooker Aileen Wuornos: Systemic abandonment, the class divide, and who gets to claim self-defense True crime exploitation: Media tropes vs. human reality The Pressure Cooker & The "Monster" Mirror (Live 6-Card Tarot Pull) Black Moon Lilith & Pluto energy: Reclaiming your rage as a compass Support & Crisis Resources: National Domestic Violence Hotline: 1-800-799-SAFE (7233) | Text "START" to 88788 RAINN National Sexual Assault Hotline: 1-800-656-4673 | rainn.org Crisis Text Line: Text "HOME" to 741741 Follow Us on Socials: Instagram: ⁠@mycardstoldmeto YouTube: ⁠My Cards Told Me To⁠ Work with Jenn: 1:1 Readings: Need a personalized reality check?

    10/10 Portals, Godsip & Venus Retrograde: Why They’re Terrified of Us Talking

    Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussions of historical persecution, gaslighting, domestic isolation, and abusive dynamics. Please take care of yourself while listening. Welcome to Part 1 of our special two-part series! Today, Jenn and Kupkake are opening the floodgates by stepping through the 10/10 Portal and navigating the fiery waters of Venus in Retrograde. We’re holding a magnifying glass to where you’ve been accepting crumbs in your relationships and financial life—and why that ex popping up during this transit is a pop quiz, not a cosmic sign to reconcile. Then, we dive deep into the origin of the word "gossip." Tracing back to godsibb—the spiritual sisterhoods and unsupervised medieval birthing rooms that kept women safe—we expose how patriarchal authorities weaponized language to turn sacred community into "sinful gossip" and "hysteria." In This Episode: The 10/10 Portal & Venus Audit: Jenn does a live 6-card pull on raising your price tag and stepping through the threshold Retrograde Ghosts: Why Saturn and Venus are bringing past loops around for a final viewing (and why we’re blocking their number) The Etymology of Godsibb: How unsupervised women’s spaces were criminalized into "witchcraft" Weaponized Verbiage: How terms like "crazy," "dramatic," and "hysterical" are used to isolate women from their reality check Support & Crisis Resources: National Domestic Violence Hotline: 1-800-799-SAFE (7233) | Text "START" to 88788 RAINN National Sexual Assault Hotline: 1-800-656-4673 | rainn.org Crisis Text Line: Text "HOME" to 741741

    Wild Feminine, Sacred Roots: Merging Lilith’s Fire with Eve’s Garden

    Are you the untamed rebel who burns the table down, or the soft creator who builds the home around it? On this week’s episode of My Cards Told Me To, Kupkake and Jenn throw out the old patriarchal rulebook that forces us to choose between Lilith—the legendary first wife who refused to bow—and Eve, the canonical mother of humanity. Kupkake breaks down the archetypes of both women, exposing how culture pitted Lilith’s raw autonomy against Eve’s grounded creation. The real plot twist? We don't have to pick a side. We need Lilith’s unapologetic boundaries just as much as we need Eve’s capacity to nurture and manifest. To help us bridge the gap, Jenn leads a deep, 6-card tarot pull using The Sovereign Seductress spread—exploring where we need to stop compromising, what raw instincts we’ve exiled, and how to combine untamed independence with generative creation to step fully into our power. Grab your deck, pour something warm (or strong), and let's reclaim the full spectrum of our wild feminine self, kiddies. Arrange Cards 1–2 on the left (Lilith’s Wing), Cards 3–4 on the right (Eve’s Garden), Card 5 at the center top (The Serpent / The Choice), and Card 6 at the center bottom (The Sovereign Self).        [Card 5: The Catalyst]    [Card 1]                [Card 3]    (Lilith)                (Eve)    [Card 2]                [Card 4]         [Card 6: The Synthesis] Lilith’s Wing (The Unapologetic Shadow) Card 1: The Sacred Rebel — Where in your life are you being called to stop compromising and demand total equality or walk away? Card 2: The Exile’s Power — What raw, suppressed instinct or desire needs to be reclaimed from the dark? Eve’s Garden (The Embodied Alchemist) Card 3: The Gift of Creation — What are you actively nurturing, building, or grounding in the physical realm right now? Card 4: The Eden Illusion — What comfortable, "safe" condition or conditional acceptance are you outgrowing? The Axis of Power Card 5: The Serpent’s Bite (The Catalyst) — What truth or catalyst is forcing you to choose between pleasing others and owning your power? Card 6: The Sovereign Self (The Synthesis) — How can you combine Lilith’s untamed independence with Eve’s generative creation to walk fully in your authority?

    Asking For a Friend: Unfiltered Answers to Your High-Key Overthinking

    Today we are coming at you with zero chaos, zero grand epiphanies, and absolute minimum effort—because quite frankly, our nervous systems demanded a low-key day. If you were tuning in today expecting a full three-hour astrological audit of your entire birth chart or a dramatic exorcism of your life choices… you’re in the wrong place. Today, we are keeping it strictly chill. We’re diving headfirst into your listener questions, and you guys brought the weird, the spooky, and the deeply relatable overthinking. We’re tackling everything from "Is my cat staring down an active entity or just a dust mote?" to "How do I stop my brain from turning a basic angel number into a full-blown existential catastrophe?" Let's be real: half the time we think the universe is sending us a dark, foreboding omen… it’s actually just our survival brain on three hours of sleep and an iced coffee on an empty stomach. So light a candle, grab your emotional support beverage, lock your energetic doors, and let’s get into it! The "Signal vs. Static" Tarot Spread 1. The Static (The Noise & Overthinking): Identifies where your nervous system or brain is currently creating mental chatter, false emergencies, or "what if" scenarios. Look at this card as the thoughts you can safely acknowledge and let pass without assigning them deeper spiritual weight. 2. The Mirror (Fear Disguised as a Sign): Highlights the exact fear, insecurity, or expectation that is currently warping your perception or trying to hijack a "sign" from the universe. This card points to where you might be projecting panic onto your reality, your deck, or your daily synchronicities. 3. The Signal (Pure Intuitive Truth): Uncovers the quiet, neutral, unbothered message your gut is actually trying to deliver beneath all the noise. Pay attention to the simple, low-stakes truth here—read it neutrally with no grand catastrophe or high drama. 4. The Anchor (Low-Stakes Integration): Offers a practical, grounded action step or boundary you can take right now to settle your nervous system and trust your core. This is your physical integration card for a low-key boundary, body reset, or simple habit to keep you grounded today. [ 3. The Signal ] [ 1. The Static ] [ 2. The Mirror ] [ 4.

    The Most Virgo-y Virgo Week Ever

    Welcome to Episode 13, kiddies! Grab your iced coffee and your deck because Kupkake and Jenn are serving full-blown cosmic triage. Kupkake kicks off the chaos by recapping the lingering, petty energy from this past eclipse before diving straight into the high-strung, micromanaged hellscape of early September's planetary alignments and Virgo season. Then, things get weird: we’ve got the ultimate Zodiac Cryptid breakdown, a special appearance by everyone's favorite sentient pair of pants—the Fresno Nightcrawler—and a quick spiral over the absolute nightmare that is the Batsquatch. Plus, we’re keeping your bank account intact and your boundaries sealed with a custom Call My Power Back Bowl and a Return to Sender warding spell for your name. Finally, Jenn pulls out the tarot deck for a ruthless 5-card September Survival Spread that reads us all for filth: Card 1: The August Hangover – Identifying the exact emotional garbage and terrible decisions from last month currently leaking into September. Card 2: The Main Event – The cosmic homework and mandatory life lesson the universe is hyper-fixating on right now whether we like it or not. Card 3: The Unnecessary Meltdown – The precise moment you’re going to spiral, overreact, and draft an essay of a text over a mild inconvenience. Card 4: The Garbage Can – The exact delusion, bad habit, or irrelevant person’s opinion you need to throw in the trash immediately to retain any sanity. Card 5: The Survival Strategy – The practical exit strategy you need to follow so we can all actually reach October without ruining our lives or getting blocked. Alright friends, ward your names, embrace the cryptid chaos, and go take out your emotional trash. We’ll see you next week! And remember... blame the deck, not the hosts!
