Addressing an Ongoing Issue Before My Return

I have noticed strong similarities between my content and this person's ever since I created my blog, and just a few days later, this person @/hermetiqa changed the aesthetic of theirs. I know i am a small blog with less than 400 followers and i disappear a lot. I have had sad experiences with plagiarism before, people have stolen my work (tarot and non tarot), and even if this isn’t exactly that, it’s really frustrating when someone with a bigger blog starts taking a lot of inspiration from you, never acknowledges it, you block them, and even after being blocked, they come back and keep doing it.

There’s no problem with being inspired, the issue is the context and how often it happens. Especially because this person changed their aesthetic after I opened my blog, along with their masterlist. I only found out now that they kept going because some friends outside my tarot blog told me. My last post was in November and guess what? So was theirs. I don’t know them, and they don’t know me. But the vibe here for me stinks bad. There’s also one thought that crossed my mind, even if it sounds silly: their blog has been around longer than mine, so what if I come back and they do it again? I won't feel comfortable because they made it weird. They could have said: oh and this masterlist was inspired by clairdelune. Like, they have paid readings, and are gaining money out of people. If you are having a business at least be transparent and support newcomers with their small business too when there's something you like or something you take inspo from.

PSA: I don't want anyone to give me advice on how to proceed, I just want to vent about this and not feel like I'm crazy. Even if it doesn't seem like it, this takes A LOT of time and days. Making tarot readings for a lot of public is draining because of the energies, and then decorating and coming up with something to make it look attractive is also draining. It's not a crime to get inspired, but the way this person has handled it has made me angry and feel a very bad energy around it.

For context this was their blog before:

It was simple, cute, straight to the point with three pictures. When you went down to read your pile, no section of "signs" with mbti or astrological placements where there. I love mbti, i checked their readings superficially and never noticed them referencing them. Here, you can see it for yourself:

then here's where it all started for me. This is what their masterlist looked like before:

Now this is what it looked like after taking inspiration from me and not even changing the roman numbers. Just changing small details but the essence is there. That's the difference with inspo and copy. You can take inspo from someone but the essence is going to be yours. If they did not change a few little tiny things, this would be confused with mine.

After this I blocked them. My thought process was: If they are a big blog and can do this with no one raising their eyebrows, It's safe to say they could even take inspo from my pictures and even readings. I don't know them, I don't know if this could be a one time thing or something that can continue, or worse: something that can enter plagiarism. I was hoping this would be enough for them to never see my blog again. But no. It kept going. At least they haven't copied what i write as I am aware.

Now, this can get tricky because unlike plagiarism, this is more inspiration based. Which is not a crime, but again, this being done heavily, with no acknowledgement whatsoever because i am a lesser known blog and after getting blocked? Not so nice and too much to be coincidence. Check the dates.

Same months, and this one took two weeks because before that, they posted another reading in between. I mean, putting floating png objects is not a trademark. But after I blocked them for what they did with my masterlist it pissed me off. Right now, them gaining more interactions with their post after this and with no acknowledgement is what did not sit well with me. It is hard to be a new blog in the tarot community and opening a ton of ask games for people to then unfollow you when they get their energy and reading from you and never interact with your blog again. Specially when this was a chance for you to get some money for college. But then again, seeing the strong similarities gets tricky, but you can see the inspiration.

Mine:

Theirs:

They never posted that section before. You can see it in their readings before, right? So when I started posting it too, guess what? they did it too. You know, it doesn’t feel fair that even after blocking them so they would leave me alone and find someone else to get inspired by, they still have this recurrent thing with me and might keep doing it with anything new I come up with. Because i stopped posting readings, the last reading I posted was the same theme (romantic partner) and with strong similarities as mine. I have not posted ever since. The one before that for me was future spouse related and theirs too. You know what's crazy? Mine got a lot of trouble and issues with the aesthetic I had to pull it down. This person's energy is so down heavy it made me put down my reading.

This can be called speculation, but we are in a spiritual community and I believe this could not be a coincidence and their energy towards me is not a good one. You can check the date. All in november. This is also a warning for other tarot readers, if you are sensitive like me with people's vibes, beware when opening a tarot blog.

They don't just do it with one thing and move on, they keep doing it with several things even after not being well received by my end, and it becomes annoying and it literally made me put my own post down.

I just want to leave this here before closing this blog and moving on, because honestly this hasn't been my year and I know it’s just starting, but little things like this don't give me a good vibe to keep running such an open blog to any audience. The energy is so draining and I want to do impulsive things like deleting my posts. Because I start thinking back to times where people straight up stole my work or envied it and posted it as theirs and I don't want that happening again.

Again, please, be mindful with your comments. If you have something rude to say, keep it.

★ book a tarot reading !

Hi! I will be accepting clients for paid readings. I am two years away from finishing college, and lately, I have had many hardships and problems with my scholarship. My university lacks in organization and sstructure, which has made me miss out on opportunities. And as a neurodivergent person of color in a third world country, it has affected me deeply. I've had to look for something to do that I like and that gives me financial relief so that's mainly the purpose of this blog!

i. about my reading style

Here are some FEEDBACKS from my tarot games. I know that there are people who don't know if I fit as a tarot reader, and they want to know how I do readings. So I'm going to give you a bit of background:

My alias is C, and this is my first tarot blog. Since my first language is not English, I usually translate my readings. But if you understand Spanish, you can let me know! It would make it much easier. Now according to my cards, because yes, I asked them lmao—the reading style that they have is represented by the queen of swords, so she's straight to the point in giving answers. She is perceptive in grabbing energy and she is prone to analysis. She might even be a bit scattered but that's more because of the way I am (ADHD) than the cards. But if you feel that something is not clear to you; feel free to notify me!

ii. before you pay

My terms of service can be found here. Once you have read them, you can choose from the following list of services and be redirected to a form you must fill.

SLOTS ARE: open ( dec. 2024 ). PAYMENT METHOD: paypal.

i just finished rewatching death note and why is light kinda…

I asked the cards and I think it would be good to have a tarot game with a personal growth theme. Rough days are coming and I believe this could help.

I was thinking about doing another tarot game for this month like a monthly thing. i thought it could be something cute. but then i remembered we just entered mercury rx preshadow today 😭

Attention! The tarot game is closed

Just a reminder that the tarot game closed two weeks ago. I know a lot of you have been enjoying it, and I really appreciate all the interest and enthusiasm. But the message about the x-kit issue had nothing to do with the tarot game. I hope that clears things up! Thank you for your understanding and support. Please avoid sending any more questions for the game, as they won’t be answered. Right now, I’m only accepting questions about the pick a pile readings I’ve done. Thanks to everyone who participated!

Hihiiiii C! I’m here for your first tarot game yuhhhh 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️.

My initials are CVK and I have no specific question coming to mind. So could I just get like a general reading (particularly focusing on my romantic and platonic love life)? Thanks so much 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫂🫂 I’ll make sure to leave feedback too!

Love your profile pic haha. Love life and platonic life would be two questions, so I did the first one. 

CVK's love life

judgement, 9 of swords rx & 10 of pentacles

I only pull 2 cards but a 10 of pentacles flew out of nowhere like it wanted me to read it anyways. So I complied. Look - you've finally managed to heal from that anxiety and overthinking that used to keep you up at night (from of an old connection). You’re getting closure. This connection shattered your heart. Even though you're still kinda dealing with the aftermath of heartbreak, you're already turning that pain into personal growth and making future plans despite having moments where you sometimes feel stuck in your old ways. Don’t worry it’s natural! You’re doing better than most by the looks of the cards. Keep going because this healing process is directly leading you towards a super stable and fulfilling emotional state (this is where the 10 of pentacles flew out). 

Hiiya there excited for participating in your tarot game :3

My initials: SG

I'm a saggitarius rising

My age : 18

I do not have any aries placements

My question: What are my shadow aspects which I need to work on in terms of romantic relationships

Thank you so much 💓

Aspects you need to work on in terms of romantic relationships

I'm inclined to believe that you are someone new to romantic relationships. Perhaps you've recently had one or were in the process of getting into one, avoided the inevitable and it was too complicated. You tend to have a desire to start a relationship but have a hard time taking the initiative to connect emotionally with people. There are vulnerability issues stemming from a lack of self-confidence. You think you are not capable of initiating something and being vulnerable, but the irony is that you are. There were times and occasions when you could have used that ability to connect, but you resisted. The potential was there, but in the past you had a hard time sustaining a relationship because of that inability to open up on an emotional level. Your insecurity clouds your ability to make a deep emotional connection. Subconsciously, by letting yourself get carried away by these insecurities you prevent your personal growth. You don't want to look in the mirror and see your most vulnerable and insecure areas. But in doing so, you're left not knowing what areas on you need a trim, a new dye job, a little touch up, etc. You're stunting your growth. When you enter a romantic relationship, it's important to collaborate with your partner-open up, communicate, set boundaries, and recognize when it's time to let go if things aren't working. In your case, you are having a hard time with this process. What things did you like about the relationship? What abilities could you have explore that your insecurity prevented you from doing? What things were part of your immaturity as a person and not the other person's fault? You need to let go of that control. You have to recognize what you can control and what you can't. If things don't have a solid foundation, you have to let it go. Don't hold on to something that is going to bring you down and only cause you more pain in the long run. It is when you begin to see it from this perspective that you will finally be able to free yourself from those weaknesses that hold you back in your romantic relationships. Currently that blockage to your potential in being vulnerable makes you resistant to change and keeps you stuck. That is what you need to work on. These patterns are built and if they continue they can be reinforced. When you set boundaries, and accept that certain conflicts and processes are necessary in romantic relationships (and must happen no matter how reluctant you are to let it happen), you will finally break free from this stagnation. Studying about emotional intelligence, and communication as a couple will help you get out of this stagnation! I highly recommend Steph Anya's videos, CinemaTherapy and other YouTube channels of licensed professionals who offer help in these areas.
