Stealing this from svgurl!

FemFebruary:
Send me a fandom (my profile has some of my listed fandoms) + a female character + (optional) a specific topic about her, and I'll write meta about her in February!

Where are my fandom meta thoughts for 2024?? Help me make them!

Also inspired by the fact that February is for the ladies (!!!), let's use my Buffy tarot deck.

Comment below, and sometime in the next few days, I'll draw either one card or two to three for you from this deck. Depending on how I feel (i.e. if I feel compelled to draw from this deck), I may pull an oracle card from my new Seasons of the Witch Imbolc deck.

No questions for now, as I want to get used to my Buffy deck! I will ask the cards for a message for you, and you can take what resonates with you and leave the rest.

Ahh, I finally get to read for you, Cass the Slay(er).

TEN OF PENTACLES / 6 OF SWORDS / 4 OF CUPS / SELF-CEREMONY (37)

TEN OF PENTACLES: This card is at the end of the Pentacles cycle—it represents that you're at the top of your game, that you've made it to where you want to be. As Pentacles is the suit of careers, I feel like this card is saying that you are where you want to be at work (and if you're not, you will be). Great opportunities for skill development and growth lie ahead for you. This card can also represent that you've been comfortable enough to splurge on yourself (!!!) as an act of celebrating your success and achievements. Look for ways you can give back, whether that's helping someone at work develop a new skill or taking someone out (but remember to treat yourself, too—you deserve it!).

SIX OF SWORDS: You're going through a transformation and you're adapting to the best of your ability. Perhaps you feel like our friend here who's not quite sure who he is, but as six symbolises harmony, you'll be coming out of the transformation feeling balanced. As our friend is looking straight ahead, it means he's looking toward the future rather than peering back at the past. Forge ahead, be confident, and view change as an opportunity for you to grow. You can handle anything that comes your way.

FOUR OF CUPS: Take some time out to think and plan ahead. You might feel like you need some structure… or perhaps you simply need some time like the Mayor here to take a break, spend some time meditating on what it is you want for yourself, before taking action to find it. This card means you're feeling grounded and clear-minded (or will be after you take some time out for yourself). Purple symbolises self-esteem and devotion; if you're feeling a little down or out of sorts, devote some time to self-care.

SELF-CEREMONY: Your oracle card's keywords are "Planning, future self, material pursuits, focusing on desires". Manifest! Take action! You are the creator of your journey. This card urges you to consider buying that thing you've been wanting—it's a part of self-care! (If you can afford it, do it. If you feel like you've spent enough on yourself, take this as a sign that you haven't and treat yourself only if you can do so comfortably.) But this card isn't all about buying yourself something physical. It also wants you to take care of your future self. When you pull this card, it asks you to consider telling spirit what you want to do or enjoy doing, and instead of asking "When will this happen?", ask "How can I make this happen?" If you're unsure of what you want, envision your future self and see what it is you can do to get there. You're the master of your own destiny; spirit will listen and help you along the way—you just have to tell it where it is you want to go.

I hope something from this resonates with you!

The cards all seem to agree in a common theme, which is a good sign! They are giving me a game play: figure out what I want, go for it, succeed. Sounds good to me. Thank you for this! I am planning to make a few more changes, so it's nice to hear that (at least according to the cards) it's going to be a fruitful endeavor.
