"What if our religion was each other
If our practice was our life
If prayer, our words
What if the temple was the Earth
If forests were our church
If holy water--the rivers, lakes, and ocean
What if meditation was our relationships
If the teacher was life
If wisdom was self-knowledge
If love was the center of our being."

@AskTheDevil @LnzyHou Lol, I know that skill! I once found an urban owl by paying attention to the sudden chatter of starlings and very close attention to when they suddenly stopped. Now I realize I need to add crows and dogs, excellent tip. I'm also pretty good at perimeter checks with an eye on shadows and reflections, from street kid days. I can practice the mindset on walks. Thanks both :)
@LnzyHou Yeah, I realized a few min ago the chain and wallet should be in a deep skirt pocket. And classes could def help.
@peeppeepcircus Yes, that too. Also, a leather corset with possible chain mail.
Safety. Okay, so if I want to design a costume that would make me feel more comfortable as a tarot card reader in red state Oklahoma, given that some of the PTSD is from that time they wanted to set me on fire, here are some things.
Silver chains on the bag that I use for tips, attaching it to my waist with something I can realease more easily than a pickpocket if I need to use it in defense. A baton strapped to my thigh (bedazzled). Bedazzled pepper spray, siren, and spiky rings. Suggestions?
@Kittiekatt53 I have elderly twins who sometimes speak at the same moment letting me practice on them until I get the right "voice" already telling the trailer park a hedge witch is in town with an arsenal of stories to tell :). I do need cards..... Hmm. I got a kind of Asian style "vest" with panels that flow, it might look interesting with some embroidery. I'll stick it with the veil possibilities in the costume pile :)
@duglop I knew posting this poll would get me the advice I needed.
@KarenSohne Yes, with a veil, lifted at dramatic moments.
@AskTheDevil I want a whole mess of them, damn shame I got the needle phobia.
@tippitiwichet be different, get 1 on your butt - so your butt can see when you moon someone lol
@tippitiwichet What do the cards advise🔮?
@tippitiwichet My psychic powers tell me you want a tattoo.
Nature, science, and art are super cool. Terribly sorry for the stuff that doesn't fit.
