Hey witchy friends and divination enthusiasts! Since I recently made a post on some tips for choosing a Tarot deck, I thought I’d include a post about deck interviews too. If you’re unfamiliar with deck interviews or maybe you’ve just never done one yourself, these are some tips that explain a little bit about the process. You can find plenty of deck interview spreads online or on Instagram, but please feel free to make up your own!

For me, my set up is usually as follows:

Card 1: Who are you? or What is your personality?

Card 2: What do I need to know about you?

Card 3: What are your strengths? (You can draw multiple cards for this).

Card 4: What are your weaknesses? (You can also do multiples for this one).

Card 5: Who am I to you? or What is my personality to you?

Card 6: What are you here to teach me/help me with/etc.?

Card 7: How can I best work with you?

You’re welcome to use this if you’d like but it’s only one example! As always, do whatever feels best to you. You can make your deck interview as long or as short as you like or ask whatever questions you feel necessary.

I’m always available to chat if you have questions and you can find me here or on Instagram @readingsbylily. ✨

How I do Crystal Grids

So I got an ask a while back about how I do crystal grids and if I could share that information, so here goes!

Let’s start off with some general knowledge of what a grid is, what it can be used for, and what different parts make up the grid. 

What is a crystal grid?

-Simply put, a crystal grid is an arrangement of crystals that helps set, focus, and amplify intentions 

What can a grid be used for?

-There are several things you can use a crystal grid for

1. To increase the power of your crystals

2. To cleanse and/or charge your crystals

3. Create protective boundaries

4. Raise the vibration of your space (good for work flow or meditation) 

5. To bring in luck, happiness, wealth, love etc. (any intention you can put into a spell, you can put into a crystal grid) 

Different Parts of a grid 

The Perimeter

–an optional outer ring of stones that are used to protect your grid. 

The Desire Stones

–Gather the energy of your stones and send it out into your space

The Way Stones

–Organizes and modifies the energy set by the focus stone

The Focus Stone

–Usually the stone in the center of the grid, sets your intentions

Grid Layouts

-There are books that tell you the ‘typical’ layouts but honestly I say do whatever feels right for you and fits your purpose! 

Now that the technical stuff is out of the way, lets move on to how I personally create my crystal grids!

I like to keep my process pretty intuitive. There are lots of resources that will give you specific steps to follow, and even tell you which types of crystals to use in what part of the grid based on the crystal structure or color. I tend to throw all of that out the window. 

Step 1: I pick my intention. This can be anything I would do a spell for, healing, self-love, binding, banishing, bringing in money or luck, and so on. 

Step 2: Pick my crystals. I actually pick the crystals before I pick the layout. Sometimes I select crystals based on which properties match with my intention (rose quartz for self love, aventurine for money). Sometimes I just go through my collection and pick the ones that are calling me. 

Step 3: Pick my layout. I tend to do a traditional bullseye type layout (Focus stone in the very center, way stones as the middle ring, desire stones as the outer ring). Sometimes I use a spiral method. Those are probably my top two layouts. 

Step 4: Place the stones. Again, this is a very intuitive process. I tend to use a point for the focus stone, and then lay way stones in a cross like shape around it (i.e. one directly above, one directly below, one to the right, one to the left) filling in with a few other way stones if I feel like it. I then place the desire stones in a circle around the whole thing, alternating stones (If I have multiple types of stone for the desire stones). If I put up a barrier it also goes in a circle around the whole thing. 

Step 5: In my process, the grid is activated once the stones are all in place. Sometimes I’ll fuss and shift stones around until they make a pleasing design, so once I’m done, the grid is activated. I then leave it up as long as I please!

Astrology Aspects That Make You OBSESSED With Someone😩😩😝😏

You didn’t fall… you spiraled

1. Pluto Conjunct Venus (Synastry)

They Become Your Religion

You want them bad. You need to be near them. Passion so intense it hurts.

🖤 “Even looking at them feels illegal.”

2. Moon Conjunct Pluto (Synastry)

Emotional Crack

You feel everything with them. The highs, the lows, the psychic downloads. Can’t explain it—but you’re locked in.

🌑 “They understand parts of me I’ve never said out loud.”

3. Mars Square Pluto (Synastry or Natal)

Toxic Fire

Can’t resist them. Can’t trust them. But the passion? Unmatched. You fight. You crave. You come back.

💣 “They’re bad for me… but I want more.”

4. Venus Square Neptune (Synastry or Natal)

Delusional Soulmate Vibes

You put them on a pedestal. You swear they’re the one—even when the red flags are glowing.

🌫️ “They didn’t even like me back. I made it all up.”

5. Lilith Conjunct Personal Planets (Synastry)

Taboo Temptation

It’s giving forbidden. The attraction is primal, dark, and can’t be tamed. They unlock your shadow self.

🩸 “Why do I feel possessed??”

6. 8th House Overlays (Synastry)

Psychic Bondage

They touch you = you’re hooked. Emotional entanglement, sexual obsession, and deep spiritual merging.

🕸️ “We broke up but I still feel them watching me.”

7. Pluto in the 1st or 7th House (Natal or Synastry)

Power Game Love

It’s love, but make it a power struggle. You want control… or they do. But nobody lets go.

🧿 “Even when I hate them, I can’t walk away.”

8. Mercury-Pluto Aspects (Synastry)

Mind Control

Their words haunt you. Conversations replay in your mind like audio hallucinations. You need to understand them.

🧠 “They said one sentence and I’ve been obsessed ever since.”

9. Neptune in the 5th or 7th House (Synastry)

Romantic Hallucination

You feel enchanted. Entranced. Like they were made for you. But were they… or was it just projection?

💭 “It felt like a dream I didn’t want to wake up from.”

10. Venus in Scorpio (Natal)

Intensely Attached

When they love—they cling. They don’t move on. They soul bond. And they’re not letting go…

🦂 “If I can’t have you, I’ll haunt your next relationship.”

Hey you guys! I sent out a post a while ago asking for responses to some questions on views regarding witchcraft. However, this is more about the religion of witchcraft. Do you think it is a religion? Should it be protected by freedom of religion? etc etc. I am writing from a United States standpoint but I do appreciate all responses. I am not asking for names or email addresses. Thank you!!

(You don’t have to have responded to my earlier post to fill out this form)
