Dating Tips for the Conscious-Minded: Living in a World of Woke

We’re living in a quickly evolving world of spiritual awareness which is a wonderful thing! However it can leave some things to be desired in certain areas of life, such as dating. As someone who has been navigating the dating world since a divorce (yes I was married once many moons ago!), trying to do so in a way that honors a lifestyle of mindfulness and path of spirituality has been quite an adventure. Here are some dating tips I’ve learned along the way; hopefully they’ll help smooth the path of love for others!

First things first: We are the common denominator. Not to get all math-like here, but each of us are the common factor in a relationship and this includes the relationship with ourselves. So yes it might be cliche and yes, we might be tired of hearing it but it’s true. It really helps to get right with yourself before opening the gates to all the possibilities out there. When you are living in a good space of who you are, what you’re about and what you want for yourself, it really makes things SO much easier when the time comes for a new love prospect because it will show you who’s on your level…and who’s not!

Once you get good with yourself, the next step is deciding what you want. Not a laundry list of everything you’re looking for in a person, more like a few deal-breakers aka “absolutely not” and a few things that are really important to you or must-haves. These guidelines are important because they help you keep your standards when you’re swimming around in the dating pool. They also help you to see the person for who they really are, not just a presentation that they’re putting forth. Think of guidelines like healthy boundaries; you don’t want to compromise what you value so that you can keep your vibration high and attract the kind of person you really desire!

Now that you’ve landed a date, it’s time to relax and have some fun! Create a little ritual that you do before you go out and meet someone new. I like to leave myself an hour to get ready; put on some music and take my time doing my makeup, hair and trying on outfits while dancing around the house. The purpose of this is to have fun with yourself before you even leave the house; it not only puts you in a good mood but it adds a glowing energy around you as well! You can even ask your favorite deity to step out with you on the date for a little added empowerment.

When you meet this new person, use all of your senses. This is a great time to let your intuition loose and see what you can pick up! It can also help you with asking questions and finding out what you need to know in regards to what you’re looking for in a partner. If you find that you’re digging this person, try and guess their astrological sign! It’s a great way to get some insight into their personality. If I really enjoy the person’s company, I’ll dig a little deeper to get more insight on a person’s moon (where the emotions live) and rising sign (how they present to the world), as well as what signs their Venus (how they love) and Mars (how they take action) are placed in. It can be really helpful to see what’s going on “behind the scenes,” sometimes that can save you a lot of time and energy moving forward!

The conscious dating process has taught me what I want vs what I don’t want. I’ve also seen how much intuition can play a part in assisting with seeing red flags that might otherwise be missed during a hot encounter and I’ve learned not to compromise my beliefs or any part of who I am to try and fit the expectations of another. This process has shown me time and time again that this journey is not just about being open to love or finding a love partner, it’s also about having fun and embracing the magic of who you are!

  • “The July 16th Full Moon eclipse in Capricorn will conjunct the South Node at 24°, and will be disruptive, loud, and dissonant. Patriarchs don’t like being dragged down. Luckily the cosmos is on our side. Finding ways to reject outmoded ways of thinking about and relating to power are our best bet at this point in time. The world needs it, our planet needs it, we all need it if we are to move forward. What’s more is that there are currently five planets retrograde, and so there are more questions than answers at this time. There is no point in putting pressure on yourself to have wisdom, insight, conclusions, or resolution right now. Today, July 7th, Mercury stationed retrograde at 4° Leo. The planet of communication just entered fiery Leo, and now will reverse course, slipping backward through Cancer’s final degrees. Keep an ear out for old conversations, arguments, emails, texts, emotions, and gut feelings you had from June 20th through July 6th, and note what echoes back at you from the void. This is as strong a chance at entering a time machine as we can have, these days. Retrograde is not to be feared, but rather is a chance to meet our problems from another perspective, and in doing so, find alternatives to growth. Yes, it’s uncomfortable, but if we were comfortable, we wouldn’t be transforming. “ Link in bio on latest #THoT #thehouseoftwigs post by @eighthhouseastro #witchy #witchcraft #retrograde #astrology #eclipse #mercuryretrograde #leo #fullmoon #moonmagick

  • Queering Witchcraft: Celebrating Pride Month through Non-Binary, Mixed Culture, and All Things on the Rainbow Spectrum - “Today misunderstood concepts about queer culture continue to come up in the contemporary witch-world, but with a different flavor. As a new witch, one can be quickly turned off reading a book on “women’s magic”, the “Great Rite”, or something specifically dealing with gender. As a magical community I think it’s important to look at the way we talk about these concepts. Witches are known to be some of the most inclusive and open minded sub-group in the spiritual spectrum. Some of this has to do with the fact that witches are always outcasts. Each magickal path can be individualistic, making it really about what each person chooses and identifies with. In relationship to the Kinsey Scale and energetic perspectives, one can identify as a cis female, but still work with a deity such as Pan (A nymph chasing, penis out, obviously masculine representative nature god). One can identify as a trans woman, and still identify with Pan. I’m not trying to overtly target Pan here, but he is known to be a very male, phallic-centric deity, so you get my point of ____ diety and ____ person. What is important to understand is anything can go!" Read the rest of this article Erika Fortner of The House of Twigs, Q. Meb - Queen Meb, and Keven Craft Rituals - 'Kəvən specifically for pride month, suggestions for working with more queer-centric magick, and a tarot spread to see how your masculine and feminine energies appear in your day to day life.” I also linked some of my favorite writers (some here on THoT), makers, shops, and sites that are LGBTQ, inclusive, POC witches, and more.

  • “Astrologically, Frida is a solar Cancer with her Moon in Taurus and Leo on the ascendant. The ascendant is the angle of beginning, and indicates to us that the Sun is the ruler of her chart, as Leo is ruled by the Sun. In her chart, the Sun in Cancer sits in House 11, conjunct Neptune, and alongside Jupiter and her North Node, which rest conjunct one another as well. And so in House 11 we see the ego (Sun) blend with the planet of illusion, fantasy, and madness (Neptune), and the planet of fertility, optimism, and excess merges with the node of fate. There is deep karmic purpose here. Each house of the chart talks to us about a unique set of themes, divisions or phases of the lives we lead. House 11 in general terms talks to us about the will-to-individuation of the many, meaning politics, one’s chosen circle of equals, friendship, communal energy. House 11 is the house of the individual free from familial bond as well as free from the rigid constraints of dogma, or hierarchy. The ideal collective rather than the ideal self; utopia. Kahlo vehemently opposed any and all capitalist ideology, and devoted much of her life to her political efforts which sought to spread her and her contemporaries dream of communism as an antidote to colonialism which had injured her native Mexico. With her Sun in House 11, we see that her ego sense is wedded to social questions of her time. Jupiter’s presence her shows that she finds expansion in the public, communal arenas of life.” Read more on #thehouseoftwigs where @eighthhouseastro explains #Fridakhalo and her #natalchart - #astrology #thot #witchy #artistastrology #witchschool #witchshop #witchesofinstagram #astrologyschool
  • "Basil has a rich history in pagan and folklore magick. It is a pungent herb with a distinct flavor that can help deter pests in the garden, especially when placed next to one of its culinary lovers, the tomato plant. Folklore herbalists have used it as a natural adaptogen, for it’s anti-bacterial qualities, anti-inflammatory qualities, and more. Records have been found before 206 B.C.E. that said it only “exists to drive men insane”. For the Romans and Greeks, it was associated with hatred. To grow a proper crop of basil, one was supposed to swear and cuss when sowing the seeds. Of course, that ideology of basil has changed since it became a symbol of Love in Italy. Some areas of Italy associate it both with Love and Death. There are 35 or more types of Basil, and I might guess anywhere it has been grown, it has interesting folklore. Some of the more commonly known are sweet bail, Thai basil, and holy basil (tulsi) in Indian Culture. Being sacred in India, it is not surprising that it is used in countless Ayurvedic recipes. I drink tulsi tea when I’m feeling stressed and it is said that it can block the cortisol hormone. I can’t help but wonder if the lore comes from it’s ability to absorb negative energy, and somehow transmute it. Perhaps that is why it has been said to be in connection with the scorpion. In any case, it is the perfect time to include it in your magickal, Full Moon in Scorpio rituals.” - Hedgewitchery, Brews & Potions on the magickal uses of basil by Erika of @q.mebpdx and @kevencraftritual #thot #thehouseoftwigs #witchy #hedgewitch #kitchenwitch #pdxwitches #witchythings #witchesofinstagram #pagansofinstagram
