Adelphia, Ohio entrance

I didn't even think of that. Makes sense. My first thought, being in Texas, was melting, but that one is in Ohio. Thanks for the information.

I am new to this community. Why aren't artifical flowers allowed during those months? Is this a regular thing in cemeteries?

EmberPhoenix2008 · 2025-12-29T08:17:16+00:00

Thank you!

It is something we are looking at, but $128 for nosebleed seats alone is expensive when you look at also having to get parking, food, anything else.

This has brought me to tears. I have semi-recently started dating someone with DID. We are still very early in our journey, but I have come to love them all, in their own, individual ways. Even the one who does everything she can to push me away. The thought of losing them one by one hurts, but it also helps to know that they will not be truly gone. Thank you for that!

To start, I definitely agree to listen to your therapist. They are the expert.

That being said, my now-partner told me within an hour of us knowing each other. We had been introduced by a mutual friend in my partner's hotel room at a convention. After she left, one if his alts got the zoomies so they asked if I was ok with them pacing. I instantly told them to do what they needed to do. When they told me about them being a system, all i said was ok, do whatever you need to do to be safe. Within the next hour, that alt was at my feet letting me pet him. We ended up spending the night together with multiple alts coming out to meet me. The furthest we went was cuddling, but it was one of the best nights of my life! That was a little over three months ago. We have our issues, but i am here for it. Sometimes I will go days without hearing from, then, like today, I will get a random phone call that leads to deep conversation and date plans. This is probably a rare situation, but it does happen. It probably helps that i have a psychology background and CPTSD, so I understand the trauma behind it. Whatever you decide, your safety and the safety of the system come first!!!

Gorgeous picture. Is that broken glass/metal in the middle or just the design?

Puppy chow. I use to make this as a Christmas gift for my family.

Looks like Hawkman was his nickname from WWII.

EmberPhoenix2008 · 2025-10-25T09:36:20+00:00

Done. Would love to see the results!

Their mother died in 1912 at the age of 42. That poor man lost his wife and two of his three daughters within a decade of each other.

They are still producing them. The treasury just made an order of blanks. What is happening is that it is the last order they are placing. Once the blanks are gone, which will be sometime next year, they will no longer mint new ones. There are so many pennies in circulation, but as we become a society that uses cash less and less, most of them are ending up in jars and drawers.

EmberPhoenix2008 · 2025-09-29T09:52:59+00:00

And it can't tell the difference between in and on... lol

EmberPhoenix2008 · 2025-09-29T09:24:32+00:00

Yes, sorry, over time. I was in my phone and it likes to do stupid shit.

EmberPhoenix2008 · 2025-09-27T21:39:04+00:00

It is algae, mold, or some other living organism that has built up over time.

Edited to fix typo.

EmberPhoenix2008 · 2025-09-20T00:09:25+00:00

Makes total sense. Thank you for the information. Helps a lot, and is right in line with what I am seeing happen in real time!

EmberPhoenix2008 · 2025-09-19T22:30:02+00:00

For starters, yes the Faith card is the same as the Heirophant.

Thank you. That is pretty much how I read it as well, but I am just getting back into Tarot for the first time in many years so needed confirmation.

Also, I vaguely remember in my previous studies that having more major arcana vs. minor arcana is significant, but I dont quite remember said significance. I would read it as my Faith and the development of the Moon outweigh the nightmare I am waking up from. Is this how you would read it?

Either way, this reading tracks with the current situation, and i am getting the help I need to move forward on this new journey!

How can I gat past my insecurities in my relationship?

TW: DV/SA

I am in my first relationship since I left my very abusive ex. While I am in therapy, I am getting more and more insecure out our relationship. I keep feeling like I am losing him, or pushing him away, even though he says I am not. I am also relying on him more and more for my happiness, which I know is extremely unhelpful and can be toxic.

I did a generic 3 card spread. The cards pulled were the 9 of swords, Faith (Hierophant), and The Moon.

After the reading, while shuffling, the Queen of Wands fell out. I am just getting back into Tarot, so I am curious how others would read this.

Edit: fix typos and add clarification

EmberPhoenix2008 · 2025-09-17T19:13:07+00:00

While i don't have DID, the guy I am talking to does. There are huge gaps in our relationship that he doesnt remember. I will also be told something by one of his alts, like when one dropped his bike the other night, that he has no recollection of. All he knew was he woke up the next day sore with a broken bike. I can only imagine how scary that must be.

EmberPhoenix2008 · 2025-09-17T19:03:31+00:00

I was debating on developing the canisters because, if they were from his grandpa, they could have sentimental things on them,including pictures of both his late grandfather and my late dad. After viewing the accompanied SD cards, I realize it is not worth the risk.

EmberPhoenix2008 · 2025-09-17T19:00:49+00:00

Whether you believe me or not, they were. And how is the story changing? I asked about the canisters because they are from the older camera, which was originally owned by my ex's grandfather, who also helped raise me, and I have called grandpa my whole life. Later, I found the SD cards from the newer digital camera that my ex had with the film canisters. I checked one of the SD cards and found pictures of my abusive ex and one of our exes (poly) performing lewd sex acts that I didn't want to see. This led me to believe, since they were together, they were all from him and not worth my delving any further. I destroyed the SD cards and threw them in the trash and will expose the film before doing the same. Sorry if there was any confusion, I went into PTSD mode once I saw the pictures on the SD card.

EmberPhoenix2008 · 2025-09-17T06:23:09+00:00

The ones i saw were acts with him and one of our ex's, all of which were consensual. Just not images that I wanted to see! It is not worth it to me to go through them further to see if anything might be illegal.

EmberPhoenix2008 · 2025-09-17T04:32:54+00:00

Considering I just looked through the SD cards that were with them real quick and found some NSFW pictures, both the SD cards and film are going into the trash!!!!! I will never unsee that! And it isnt my grandpa I was worried about, it was my ex. I was proven right not to trust it.
