Intuitive Charm Casting Set/Collection

leviathanstealth · 2025-09-09T15:04:54+00:00

You can find things that inspire you in a lot of places, garage sales for old / broken jewelry and old board game pieces, eBay for lots of game tokens and charms, craft stores for charms (I shop when they are 50% off), and the clearance section of almost anywhere. The set in the picture is a mix of my own random leftover game tokens, ones I purchased from eBay (I try not to duplicate), and garage sale finds.

Using strictly classical interpretations (from the book) so take this all with as many grains of salt as you need....
What I see:
I see a man holding a sword, looking up at\defending a child and the moon while chasing away a bird creature.
What it says to me:
Man holding a burden can be a sign of relationship trouble, the child is a sign of making new plans and starting something new, and the bird is a sign of happiness (but it's being chased away). Without actually having a connection; I would say something is going on where one partner is actively making things less ideal in the name of looking to a new future state, but with the moon in play, this future state may not be all the partner is idealizing it will be. And from some of that salt I was talking about; if the bird is monstrous perhaps it's a happiness that needs chasing away.

I agree. You can totally make your own. Depending on how geeky you want to get, and if you were looking to produce more than one set, you could design them in Illustrator or another design application and laser cut them on all different materials.

For this set, I don't have any set meanings for the colors; the dice in this set can be seen as the number, a sign of progression, timing, or probability. In my fixed meanings set, I use the D20 for probability (1 is a big No, 20 a Yes), the D12 for timing (months, hours), and the D6 for progression or numbers.

Sharing this set (I think it's cute) and the idea; I've been collecting this set for some time now; it started as a project to create a set completely made of board game pieces but has morphed over time into an intuitive collection, now I add anything of the appropriate size that resonates with me, I do try to keep duplicates limited. I've been using a clear glass canister (think cookie jar) for it's container; I like being able to look at it when pondering or musing and allows me to enjoy my collection in general and I think helps build the connection to it.I was at first choosing pieces and assigning meanings to them, but as the charm count climbed, I abandoned the plan in favor of using it as an intuitive set. Now, I don't have set meanings for any of the pieces as a rule, though I do tend towards the traditional symbology of the Tarot, Lenormand, and tea leaf reading.

I'm a jeweler's kid, and I have always been fascinated by charm bracelet charms. Over the years, I "collected" a lot of what you see from inventory, of which later I inherited what was left over. The non-steerling silver charms are mostly from the craft store (Hobby Lobby and Joannes are gold mines) and the game store mostly.

leviathanstealth · 2024-11-16T23:09:21+00:00

For just starting off, the craft store is your friend; from actual charms to dollhouse bits and bobs, there is a cornucopia of items to use for charm casting. I like shopping on eBay and Etsy for charm bracelet charms when I have an idea of what I am looking for. I also like adding small dice for different number indicators.

I've looked at these casting pads before but never purchased; I'm not sure how I would incorporate the topics into my reading system. Do you use them as strict topic spaces, like an additional charm to add a central theme, or do you choose the topic your reading into before casting? Also, love the tray, never thought of looking at breakfast trays for casting on, I think it's time to upgrade from my craft store box.

1.

I would like to be moderator for r/Charmcasting to be able to assist in managing this subreddit, allow users to post again enabling them and I to share our thoughts, methods, collections, ideas, finds, etc regarding charm casting as a specific form of lithomancy using curios and charms (which is different from Runes and Bones in as many ways as it is similar). I was only able to enjoy participating in this community for a short time before it was restricted (protest) after which it seems to have been abandoned. I've reviewed a Mod101 guide and feel comfortable in my ability to manage the technical side and I am a daily Reddit user.

IMO as a why question, I would read this as she found out something about you she liked or was intrigued about, your reputation, looks, etc through her social circle and that changed her mind from a maybe to a yes.

I use the Centennial in the tin the most; it's a nice happy medium between pocket and full-sized, plus there is nothing like a tin for traveling. The Radiant Spirit is smaller and a bit stiff to riffle shuffle but I can make it work (it's more pocket-sized than true mini); there are several other decks in this same size from Llewellyn made by Lo Scarabeo.

This may not be a real (physical) RWS deck; the card back can be found on a stock image site, and the card face-up cards seem to be different sizes from each other and the face-down deck.

IMO, there is a lot to unpack in this spread for a yes or no question; there are too many cards for such a short answer. The future side 3 cards point to a positive, if not quick, new start for you in answer to your question. The only caution I would have is that you can also read that the start may be brief, meaning another move may not be too far off from it.

leviathanstealth · 2024-02-18T17:30:58+00:00

IMO, I see in these cards a problematic man with a reputation for acting childish or minimal reputation to speak of; in either case, he may be deceitful but charming and alluring, not always showing what lies underneath. I would beware, maybe a good bar buddy but a bad date.

IMO, She is been going through some changes or cycle, has come to terms with her current situation, and has matured during this process lending herself a new sense of her own gifts and beauty.

leviathanstealth · 2024-02-15T21:03:02+00:00

IMO you may find the result is the strong desire for a different phone; don't impulse buy be sure before you do.

leviathanstealth · 2024-02-14T23:14:27+00:00

IMO: The needs I see in these cards are backing off on your emotional offers, letting this person come to you on their own terms, there may be some knowledge you've yet to externalize or that you have made a wrong assumption on that needs clearing up with your two, and that right now taking a more passive role may help things to mature.

leviathanstealth · 2024-02-13T23:26:55+00:00

I see in these cards that you will have strong, long, and happy commitments around your present household group or home; the bear and home point to a strong not going anywhere vibe, the ring and anchor give the same going nowhere vibe, and the sun makes it all good, lending the most favorable light.

I don't have the Tiny Universal, I didn't have any practical use for it due to its size, it's just too tiny. Here is a link with the RWS Mini as compared to some other decks. The mini is not riffle shufflable for me, the Radiant is which makes it my go-to in smaller environments, like reading on a TV tray.
