I don’t want to be a part of the machine. I want slowness. Stillness. Silence. Joy. Tears. Bliss.

No climbing fu***ng ladders unless we’re reaching for the goddamn stars with each other.

If you're on my page, there's a good chance you already know about the importance of ✨

You know it's something everyone innately has & you just need to tap into it.

You've heard everyone is born w/ it & it just gets conditioned out of us.

Your intuition is where your resides like some kinda shy genie in a lamp that only appears once you unstick the gum someone jammed in the spout.

Your conditioning is that gum.

But all is not lost! You can totally get it outta there w/ a variety of practices ~ some grounding, some meditative, some just experimental.

For today, when faced w/ the smallest decision, let yourself do whatever pops to mind first. Decide this is a game in the morning ~ and go!

Let me know in the comments what happens!

Afraid of making the wrong choice? Tarot can help guide you.

I know I sound like a broken record now, but I've said before & will say it again ~ is simply a tool to assist in accessing your own and that of your and 😇

When a gives you a , they are tapping into both of those things, where the information already resides. The message that you get is simply a read on how the exists right now, and you always have to change it (as I give everyone the spiel at the start of a reading).

Knowing that information, you can then decide if you want to continue down that path, or change it. You do this either by continuing to give focus & energy to what you've heard (basically 101) or decide to shift that focus elsewhere, which will lead to a new path w/ new energy.

Waffling over which way to go? My 1hr readings are 20% off for a limited time! See 🔗 in comments & type TAROT20 at checkout. 🔮

Stay magical. 😉

~ 🤔 S k e p t i c i s m 🤔 ~

Skeptical about tarot? Here’s why it works.

Tarot is a form of 🔮

Divination relies on receiving information in intangible ways either through one of the 'clairs' (ie ) or the use of tools (like or, like I also use, ).

Tarot cards are just a tool that help access your sub/unconscious, which hold answers you're not ready to hear (which is why they're unconscious in the first place).

When we connect, I'm using cards & charms as tools, along with my own claircognizance, to tap into your energy, subconscious, spirit team, etc.

So the answers you get are really coming ~from you~, you've just had a veil over your eyes 'cause your precious lil subconscious/ be trying to protect you (again, that's why they're hidden...consciously, you haven't been ready to face it or TRUST it).

Fancy yourself a skeptic? DM me your concerns.

I realized it's been a helluva long time since I re-introduced myself & I've got lotsa new followers so,

Hi, I’m Sam, your guide to the mystical world of tarot and personal empowerment, and your otherwise odd, magical Zia ('aunt' in Italian, it's what my real life niblings call me).

I've been reading tarot professionally for 10 years and have taken my teachings & services internationally (shout out to my folks!).

Let's embark on this journey together... Follow me to start yours!

~ 🙏 T h a n k Y o u 🙏 ~

(Plus an announcement 📣)

Many, many thanks to everyone who bought something, stopped & chatted, asked questions, & even came out specifically to see what I was all about at my trunk show yesterday.

As always, thank you to for having me, here’s to many more of these. 🍻

Y’all nearly cleaned 👏 me 👏 out 👏 (actually sold out of the 🧂) so if you still wanted to grab one of the mini spell jars, mirror boxes, or incense bundles, DM me & we’ll get ya hooked up!

So announcement 📣:

Y’all were super keen on the hand rolled which I so appreciated ‘cause they are very near & dear to my heart (plus I just think they’re pretty 🌺).

I’ve been thinking about this for a little while now & after speaking w/ so many lovely folks yesterday, I’m going to start offering personalized incense service. Basically, I’ll have all my ingredients w/ me & you’ll tell me what you’re looking for, plus I’ll intuitively read you, & I customize a bespoke blend for you on the spot.

The ingredients I bring will not be items you’ve seen in bundles before, as anyone who saw them yesterday could tell you (seriously, go look at past posts, you’ll see). 🌸

I’ll have this at future trunk shows and markets so keep your eyes peeled.

Any special requests? Curious if we can put a certain intent into your blend? DM me, I bet we can!

You know you're supposed to channel your energy & intentions into your magic so they work.

✨ Have you been waiting for the right time to get a reading?

✨ Felt a little lost or stuck or just not quite ready to trust that little voice in your head yet?

✨Been thinking about how you need to stock up on & maybe feel so moved to get some clarity?

Well, tomorrow’s your day! I’ll be The Eclectic Road from 11 ~ 2 throwing cards & chucking charms (sounds a lot more aggressive than it is lol).

Bring your questions, your smiling faces, & I wouldn’t say no to ice cream w/ sprinkles from across the street. 😆😜

~ 🌸 D i d Y o u K n o w ? 🌸 ~

Did you know that I make my own hand rolled bundles?

Sure do!

When I started making these, I used basic herbs that you could find at the supermarket, but as time has gone on, I’ve expanded into growing my own ~&~ them from my property!

I’ve really enjoyed watching the different flowers bloom in the wild, getting to be surprised as the seasons wear on as to what might pop up (this is my first real time living on & experiencing my property for the gorgeous piece of nature it really is). 🌺

The blends change as the seasons do, so you won’t always be able to count on me having exactly the same ones (also meaning if you see one that really tickles your fancy, holler at your girl fast, & we’ll hook you up).

The blends pictured are & (great for calming & love), & (an excellent cleanser & refresher of spaces), & rosemary & black eyed Susan (believe it or not, awesome for clearing & welcoming in new beginnings).

I mean, y’all…where tf else will you see these? 😜

I’ll have this these weekend at Christmas in July in Hopkinsville & on July 27 at my Trunk Show!

And if ya can’t make it to either, seriously ~ DM me or soon, they’ll be live on my new website.

Stay magical, niblings. ✨

I've been hitting the markets since I returned to the States in February, but my silly noggin has barely posted a ding dang thing about where to find me, wtf is up, etc. Without further ado:

~ Christmas In July ~ July 13 @ Jennie Stuart Sportsplex in Hopkinsville, KY. Reading tarot & hocking my wares! I've never seen this venue before, but the pics were impressive...& the vendor map blew my mind, lol. SOOOO MANY VENDOOOORS, so much cool stuff I wanna peruse before I hunker down in my booth!

~ The Eclectic Road ~ July 20 The Eclectic Road , edition! I only just recently was introduced to this frickin' groovy-ass store, not TEN MINUTES from where I used to live (which would've been so stinkin' helpful! 😜). Very cool digs, VERY cool products (featuring loads of local small businesses 😍). Can't wait, !

~ AromaG ~ July 27 AromaG's Botanica , doing my first *dundunDUN*... 🌟! I'm ~very~ excited to be bringing some of my to the store for one day only (so make sure you stop by & check it out, & while you're at it, get you a tea & a reading, & enjoy the incense-scented vibes all around). Among the items available, I'll have my & mini & who knows what else I'll pull outta the bag?

If you've read this far, you're a damn trooper. Hope to see your smiling mush at these!

I don’t know why or how I got it in my head, but suddenly I HAD to crochet a planchette rug.

And I didn’t even really know how to crochet!

(& furthermore, I don’t even -enjoy- playing w/ Ouija boards, ok? Even though I believe in all that stuff, they still freak the s**t outta me, lol. ☠️ )

So here it is, planchette rug prototype. 👻

Lemme know in the comments—would you put this in your house? 😜

08/07/2024

My first out of state venture if you don't count Scotland, lol! I'll be reading tarot & hawking my wares, so if any of you know anyone in Indiana or Indiana-adjacent, point 'em at your girl. 😁

Limiting beliefs are funny things...
..they can keep you from connecting & helping just the right people, at just the right time.

Discount nothing. Be open to everything. Believe in your value.

Just what I needed to see today really.

Sure, are natural occurrences, but just like anything else...
..if you believe in or that the is always trying to converse w/ you, these mundane things can take in beautiful new meaning (like yesterday’s Luna moth). 🌈

Rainbows typically are associated w/ good luck, blessings, & indicate that you’re heading down the right path.

It’s supposed to rain a ton here in Nashville this weekend into early next week, so locals—keep your eyes peeled when the clouds part. 👀🙏🏻

This guy wouldn’t let me help him to safety so he wouldn’t get stepped on right there.

Pretty, but kind of a jerk.

Luna moths represent rebirth, renewal of body & spirit, regeneration & even the soul itself according to some sources. Moths do generally symbolize of some kind, but the beautiful luna moth takes it to another level.

So it goes when you’re in your ✨ When you do the work, you’re rewarded w/ reminders that you’re on the right track. 🦋

When a creature unexpectedly crosses your path, it’s always curious to consider what message they’re bringing you. What’s your first response to them? What does it mean to you? What’s the most prevalent situation on your mind?

Interestingly, this dude wouldn’t let me save him—he could save himself (which he must’ve, ‘cause he was gone when I came back).

So, what’s my message? Despite any perceived struggles I may have, I’m doing a pretty darn good job of renewing & revitalizing myself on all levels—even when the process feels sucky & uncomfortable. I don’t need to be saved, I have everything I need to “save” myself.

Have you ever come across an animal or insect that cosmically delivered you a message? Share in the comments 👇🏻, it’s always cool to see how things show up for people. 😊

Some days you’re on top of the world, like the & others, you’re off your game.

And that’s fu***ng frustrating. Especially when you feel like you’ve been trucking along, doing your work.

This can be a side effect of energy work—sort of like a hangover or an energetic fallout. As you work on healing things, especially deeply ingrained issues, energy shifts—& sometimes that looks like things getting worse before they get better. Moodiness, fatigue, sensitivity (physical & emotional), & increased triggering are just a handful of experiences you might have after a healing.

That doesn’t make it not worth it though—the only way past is through. 🚂 Gotta remember, you’re dealing w/ some old stuff—generational stuff even. 🕯 It’s gonna take some getting uncomfortable to dismantle old patterns that have been basically written into your DNA.

But it’s okay. You’ll be again, the Sausage King of Chicago. 🌭

Oh dear, having some of those days where we can’t see what’s right in front of us. 😛🍷

With upon us, it’s a good time to clear away the junk & get down to brass tacks. Where is it you want to get to? What’s your to get there?

Sometimes an outside perspective can be helpful to see where the paths are & which ones may be the clearest. If things have felt a lil cloudy lately, or you’ve felt kinda stuck w/ whatever the status quo is—hit me up for a reading. 😊🔮 Booking link in comments.

I’ve been waiting forever to get myself new w/ my WotW on it.

I don’t consider myself remotely a but man, when it comes to trying to promote yourself, how often do we just not do anything because it’s not just right?

I hadn’t done s**t w/ these because I didn’t have my logo vectorized. I didn’t need to wait for that.

Fear of failure & judgment & imposter syndrome are all super powerful, aren’t they?

Word.

Anyway, I’m actually really pleased w/ how they came out, even kinda proud how good they look considering I whipped them together (thank you high school procrastination w/ good grades translating into adulthood).

Hail ❤️

I don’t always do 🛁, but when I do, it’s a stereotypical move of 💓

Wine, candles, tarot cards, and some Archangel Raphael action going, too, to kick whatever this funk is I’ve had.

Venus is not only related to romantic & but also 💞

I poke fun at baths being a self-care thing in jest because, c’mon, it -is- a little bit overly common in “Top 5 Ways to Show Yourself Love Right Now.”

You know what else is self-care though? Noticing your response when old triggers & situations arise & seeing how far you’ve come. And how you choose to respond differently.

Noticing that massive shift you never saw coming, but boom, here you are.

I had an ex email me last weekend—the one I really thought I’d spend the rest of my life w/, that was an on & off again relationship of highest highs & lowest lows, that ended in utter flames.

Any other time he’d reached out in the past, I snatched it up. Not this time.

I sat on it a good long while. I was immediately aware of how much I didn’t actually want to converse w/ him & how much it meant to me to hold my in a way I never really could when we were together.

It felt pretty amazing. More done than I had even thought it was already. And that is due in no small part to all the & self healing I have dedicated myself to in the interim.

It seems really small & trivial, but when you know the bulls**t you let yourself go through before only to feel motherf**kin’ in your power...I’ll definitely take that as a win.
