MYCELIA - CARD ZERO
as card 0 of my oracle deck, MYCELIA holds ancient knowledge, learnt from millennias of experience. Rooting around in primordial dirt, MYCELIA is the cycle connecting life to death to life again. As both the beginning and the end of the circle, the place where two meet and become one, MYCELIA holds a multiplicity within and around itself. This card urges you towards connection, spiral-ity, the cycles of life, and to tap into the ebb and flow of energy all around you. This card serves as your reminder to acknowledge all you have done to get to where you are today. MYCELIA knows the journey was and continues to be hard. Despite this, MYCELIA knows you have the power within and around you to keep growing, exploring, and connecting.
One of the things that really gets me when it comes to online witchcraft and magic spaces is how hard people push the narrative that beginner magic is dangerous. It really isn't. No demon is going to show up and suck out your soul because you accidentally summoned it. No deity is going to go out of their way to harm you. Most spirits can be dealt with using a basic banishing spell. It is extremely uncommon for witches to hex each other, but you wouldn't guess it from the fear mongering that goes around about it.
What IS important for beginner witches is learning mundane skills like discernment and critical thinking. Because when you're just getting started, the most dangerous thing you are going to encounter is other practitioners preying on newbies. Know how to spot grooming. Know how to spot cult-like behavior. Know how to read books critically. Know how to spot bullshit when you see it.
Have fun with beginner magic. Get messy. Make mistakes. Fuck around and find out. There's no need to be afraid of it. No one ever cultivated a craft or skill by being too afraid to DO.

May aromantic and asexual people who worship Aphrodite be blessed, you’re valid. She’s the goddess of love, not necessarily romantic or sexual love. Love in all forms, platonic and self love included.
