Amanita Muscara and Vanadanite-

Element - Fire, Earth

Astrological Sign - Libra, Cancer , Capricorn

Commonly known as Fly Agaric , Amanita Muscara is one of the most famous mushrooms in art and culture (maybe the most famous). It's a large white gilled mushroom with a red cap and white scaling and is most notably psychedelic and poisonous. The poisonous aspect doesn't affect its historic use in herbalism and mysticism alike. It has a history of being used by Shamans and is associated with the winter holidays and reindeer. Amanita Muscara grows in temperate and boreal regions all across the Northern Hemisphere and also despite its poisonous nature is often eaten (and is safe if prepared correctly).

Vanadanite is a major Ore of Lead so like Amanita Muscara is poisonous but not poisonous , as it is a pretty stable ore of lead. It belongs to the Apatite Family and forms in usually hexagonal plates and boasts some pretty bold warm colors ranging from red to yellow. Holding the stone or having it in your collection isn't dangerous as long as you're not physically consuming it, or cutting it. In Metaphysical Practices Vanadanite is a stone of focus and grounding. Though it is a rather high energy stone for grounding, it's "pedal to the metal" approach I guess could be seen as a form of grounding, if you have things you're having trouble with mentally organizing.

This card's message is to focus on the things you feel you need to work on. Maybe a free form schedule isn't quite working for you at the moment. Make a schedule for the time being, and really try to block out time for the things you feel you need to accomplish. This could also be a call-out to a very busy period of time when everything seems messy and out of control. Try to organize that time accordingly, and things should fall into place much more smoothly.

If this card appears reversed, it could mean that things are actually just messy and out of control. A period of chaos and frustration are upon you. Now trying to organize things could still help a little, but a schedule could very hard to follow right now. Breathe and just get through it , remember that everything passes. Sometimes wild chaos is unavoidable. If you feel like this period has been ongoing for a very long time, it may be time to reassess why this is a common problem. It could be time to step back and look at things from another angle.
