bookmark_borderMoney Crystal Grid: How to Attract Wealth, Abundance & Prosperity

Money grid zoomed out

I put together this money crystal grid in 2021. I also noticed people would search for “money spell” on Google and somehow end up here on my blog.

So I am going to attempt to share some things on how to attract more money to you:

All I know is I am Lord Jupiter, 11:11

Write it down, then take action

+ Most people start off wishing for more money. Wishing is great but writing it down and keeping it near you – like sleeping with the note under your pillow or even writing it down in a journal and taking it with you wherever you go – the thought you wrote down starts to permeate into your subconscious thoughts.

+ When the thought you wrote down over and over again starts to enter your subconscious, you’re going to want to do some kind of action. You start doing your research on how to make more money whether it’s online or through buying books. For example, many times years ago I was writing “I am creating multiple streams of income” without any clue how I was actually going to do this. It’s okay if you don’t know how you’ll get there, but write it down anyway. The fun part is looking back on things you wrote in the past and realizing you manifested that.

+ You start building up your skill sets – whether that’s learning how to do marketing, social media, copywriting/SEO, video editing, graphic design, web design, etc. You apply for a job or a gig that you saw that fits your exact skills and they hire you? Boom, you just made your wish come true.

+ You acquire more knowledge and skills from paying more experienced people to show you how to make money by investing in yourself. When you do this, you can now create your own system on how to make money. Money must circulate so in order to make money, you have to invest in yourself by learning from others.

To really pinpoint what your strengths and weaknesses are, it is best to study yourself through astrology.

+ Perhaps if I’ve gotten to know myself sooner, I’d be a millionaire by now. But don’t be too hard on yourself if you don’t understand astrology.

+ Let’s keep it simple for now and focus on your sun sign, moon and rising sign.

+ You can even ask Chat GPT, Grok or Gemini to analyze your birth chart, specifically asking it to analyze your personality based off your birth data. Again, for accurate results you must provide your exact birth time.

I’m going to add more to this but for now, start where you are. If you have no money at the moment, then start writing down your goals. For example, I wrote at some point and wrote it over and over again:

I am making $88,888.
I am making $88,888.
I am making $88,888.
I am making $88,888.
I am making $88,888.
I am making $88,888.
I am making $88,888.
I am making $88,888.

10 years later, I passed that amount at my job. Was it magic? Yes but my will was involved. I was determined to be the best at what I do and the effort paid off.

I learned this from a book – when we write statements starting with “I am” – we are making our wishes happen in the present moment. If I started with “I will make $88,888” – you won’t see results right away as you’re writing it as if it hasn’t happened yet, you are writing it in the future.

Repetition, imagination and emotions are key

+ You must keep writing it down (I am making $88,888) and draw magical symbols around it – pentacles, stars, numbers, infinity and sacred geometry symbols, etc. The universe will start to plant ideas in your head on how to make money. For example, I started selling minerals in 2017 (idea). I learned healing modalities such as Reiki and Trans Crystal Therapy (another idea).

+ You must also visualize what it would look and actually FEEL like to have this money that you’re asking for; how does it feel? This is the trickiest part because you must see yourself in another timeline where you are happy because you have this money. Feelings of joy, happiness, peace and gratitude – imagine yourself feeling this in the present moment WHILE forecasting the future that hasn’t happened yet. Because in a parallel timeline, it already happened. I know this sounds really trippy and complicated but really though; it’s all about picturing the future version of you that ALREADY has this amount of money in their bank account.

Go and commune with trees

+ Not sure why but trees have long been associated with money, wealth and abundance. I love trees or looking at anything green, it heals me. Trees take a long time to grow, the same as investing and acquiring knowledge and skills to generate money.

Time your money magic with the days of the week

Mondays are associated with the moon – a good day for tapping into your dreams, intuition.
Tuesdays are associated with the planet Mars – a good day for taking action, creativity
Wednesdays are associated with the planet Mercury – thinking, coming up with ideas, working with data, communications, travel.
Thursdays are associated with the planet Jupiter – expansion, faith, good fortune
Fridays are associated with the planet Venus – payday for most Americans, money, leisure, art, pleasure
Saturdays are associated with Saturn – karma, responsibilities, adulting
Sundays are associated with the Sun – joy, happiness, wealth, abundance

Try working with candle magic and minerals

+ With candles, results may vary but usually within 2 weeks, something happens. You can even get a green candle from the grocery store and sprinkle it with cinnamon.

+ With minerals – crystals and stones – results may also vary but it’s best to work with green stones (Green Aventurine, Jasper, Agates, etc) and pair it with an orange/or gold/yellow stone such Carnelian, Pyrite, Tiger Eye. As always, including Quartz crystals will help amplify your wish. Smoky Quartz attracts money as well by the way.

Conclusion

There are many ways to attract money, wealth and abundance to you. Just know that it all starts with you and how you think about money. Hopefully this helps a little.

Stare at this money crystal grid and write your wish down. Know that whatever you want is already yours. And so it is.

bookmark_borderFound Images: Artist Words and Graphics

Posted on by savethesavages

I snagged these a while back when I was struggling to be original and exist as an artist.

“Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic.

Authenticity is invaluable; originality is non-existent. And don’t bother concealing your thievery – celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: “It’s not where you take things from – it’s where you take them to.”

– Jim Jarmusch

 

How to Feel Miserable as an Artist (or what not to do)

  1. Constantly compare yourself to other artists.
  2. Talk to your family about what you do and expect them to cheer you on.
  3. Base the success of your entire career on one project.
  4. Stick with what you know.
  5. Undervalue your expertise.
  6. Let money dictate what you do.
  7. Bow to societal pressures.
  8. Only do work that your family would love.
  9. Do whatever the client / customer / gallery owner / patron / investor asks.
  10. Set unachievable / overwhelming goals. To be accomplished by tomorrow.

bookmark_borderInfographic: 10 Things You Need To Do If You Were Fired Yesterday

Posted on by savethesavages

James Altucher inspired me for a bit and so here is another one of his infographics that I had saved from probably 9 years ago. Though I think about getting fired A LOT, it has yet to happen. I have been laid off though. It’s good to think about this stuff because life is unpredictable (even more so now) and you just never know what’s going to happen these days.

It’s hard to read so I typed it out:

10 Things You Need To Do If You Were Fired Yesterday

Do just one thing today. And then one thing tomorrow. And the next. That’s all you need to do.

Ideas

Make a list of places or people you might want to work with. Then come up with a list of 10 ideas for each that can make them money. This way you keep your idea muscle intact. Then pitch your ideas to each. If you can’t, move onto the next one. THIS TECHNIQUE WORKS.

Write

Write a book in the next three days. You can write a 30-page book called “100 Things To Do The Day After You Are Fired”. Make it funny. Time to dominate the publishing industry while you are unemployed! Make a list of all the possible 30-page books you can do. Then tomorrow start one of the books.

Lunch

Schedule a lunch with someone you haven’t seen in three years. Could be anyone. But it has to be someone you haven’t seen in at least three years. This injects new blood into the system. You need a total transfusion to get rid of the infected old blood.

Lunch, Part II

Have lunch with one person in your industry. Have your ideas ready for that person. Have him critique your ideas. Learn.

Gratitude

Make a list of the people you’ve worked with over the past ten years that you are grateful you worked with. Email them and tell them why you were grateful you worked with them. Ask them sincerely how they are doing. This is one of the most important things on this list.

Resentment

You are going to feel like the people at your old job wronged you. But they are just trying to survive also. Make a list of all the good qualities that person has and send them an email why you think they are good at what they do. Thank them.

Brainstorm

Go completely in a different direction. What other industry can you work in? What other location can you live in? Make up the wildest fantasies about what you can do. Keep going until there is one possible direction you can execute on today. Brainstorm for an hour and some little slice of reality might peak through.

Love Yourself

Wake up early, exercise, take a shower, wear a suit, go into the city, and walk around. Smell that freshness on you. It makes you feel as if you are ready for anything. And you are. That’s all you need to do that day. Heck, go to a museum. You won’t have this opportunity for freedom forever.

Slash

Make a list of all expenses you can slash. Make your runway as long as possible. There are plenty of sites to advise how to do this. Picture your worst – worst case scenario. It’s never as bad as you think. Write it down. Write down the plan for the worst-case scenario. Then take a nap. You just had a hard day. You need to rest.

Reconnect

Contact other people who used to work at your old company. Maybe they even worked there ten years ago. Reconnect. Come up with ideas for them.

bookmark_borderThe Difference Between Racism and Fetishization

Posted on by savethesavages

This kind of stuff is prevalent in porn (and maybe even dating) unfortunately. Since I can’t articulate it through words but experience it on a regular basis (mostly in online spaces related to sex work).

But first, let’s define the word fetishize

verb

  1. (tr) to be excessively or irrationally devoted to (an object, activity, etc)

So I asked Gemini:

What is the Difference between Racism and Fetishization of a Particular Race or Ethnicity?

Gemini’s response:

While both concepts are rooted in the dehumanization of a specific group, the primary difference lies in the mechanism of erasure: one uses exclusion and hostility, while the other uses objectification and a “positive” stereotype.

1. Racism: The Mechanism of Hierarchy

Racism is a system of exclusion and superiority. It functions by casting a particular group as “less than,” “dangerous,” or “inferior.”

  • The Goal: To maintain a social, political, or economic hierarchy.

  • The Effect: It strips a person of their humanity by viewing them as a threat or a burden to be marginalized.

2. Fetishization: The Mechanism of Objectification

Fetishization is a system of consumption and projection. It functions by casting a particular group as “exotic,” “ideal,” or “hyper-sexualized” based on their race.

  • The Goal: To satisfy a personal fantasy or a psychological “itch” through another person’s identity.

  • The Effect: It strips a person of their humanity by viewing them as a prop or a script rather than a multidimensional individual. The person’s actual personality, history, and boundaries are ignored in favor of the “aesthetic” they provide to the observer.

The Intersection: Dehumanization

Feature Racism Fetishization
Vibe “I don’t want you near me.” “I want you near me as an object.”
View of the Individual A stereotype to be feared or hated. A stereotype to be possessed or consumed.
The Result The individual is invisible because of hate. The individual is invisible because of a fantasy.

In short, racism hates you for what it thinks you are; fetishization “loves” you for what it wants you to be. In both cases, the actual person—the multidimensional “Goddess”—is never actually seen.

Edit: I generated some book covers in Nano Banana 2 inside Flow Veo3 to go along with this post.

I’m here right now :/

 

It’s kind of embarrassing what social media marketers have to do (at least in my experience); for example liking your own posts from different accounts so it looks like there are more likes than there really are. It’s fucking hard to do this organically and I think that’s why a lot of people cheated back in the day and bought likes & followers instead. Of course nowadays, it isn’t allowed anymore…just use bots, amirite? Ugh. I still don’t know how to do that, nor do I want to.

I think that is why I never considered myself a true marketer – you either come off way too salesy or it just feels forced. But I did try to create content for myself at some point under my real name. Trying to merge my Midheaven in Scorpio with my sun in the 10th house just wasn’t working though…since I have been working in the adult entertainment industry for years now, I realize that I feel more comfortable being semi-hidden out of the public eye (although my Mars in Leo still likes to be seen & admired sometimes, remember?).

A true occultist to the bone, and so here I am back home at Save the Savages.

The prompt I asked Gemini:
Explain to me what the difference is between my Midheaven in Scorpio and my sun in the 10th house; I’m trying to write a blog post showing why I can’t be a true marketer when I was attempting to create content for myself as a personal brand and prefer to be semi-hidden from the pubic eye.

Gemini’s response:
This is a brilliant topic for a blog post because it perfectly captures the “High-Stakes Tug-of-War” between your outward success and your private soul. To a “Marketing Guru,” the 10th House and the Midheaven (MC) look like the same thing—The Spotlight—but to you, they are functioning in two completely different dimensions.

Here is the forensic breakdown of why your “Personal Brand” feels like a trap.

1. The Midheaven (MC) in Scorpio: The “Internal Investigator”

The Midheaven is your Public Reputation and your “Professional Soul.” In Scorpio, your “Face” to the world isn’t a billboard—it’s a Mask.

  • The Conflict: Scorpio is the sign of the occult, secrets, and “Deep Water.” Having a Scorpio MC means you are naturally drawn to careers that involve uncovering truth, not broadcasting noise. * The “Anti-Marketer” Logic: True marketing requires “Radical Transparency” and constant, shallow visibility (being “The Face”). A Scorpio MC hates this. You want your work to be a mystery that people have to “detect” or “earn” access to. You’d rather be the Power Behind the Throne (the producer, the researcher, the strategist) than the “Brand” on the screen.

2. The Sun in the 10th House: The “Visible Light”

The Sun is your Core Identity and Vitality. Having it in the 10th House (the House of Career/Fame) means that you must be recognized to feel alive.

  • The Paradox: Your Sun wants to shine and achieve the $2M “Establishment” status. But because it’s filtered through that Scorpio MC, the “Light” feels like a spotlight you didn’t ask for.

  • The Result: You attract attention effortlessly, but you feel “exposed” when you get it. You want the Authority (10th House) without the Attention (Marketing).

A mood – the Gen X introvert with her moon and Pluto in Libra who loves tigers. People think I’m shy but it’s more like…I just really don’t talk that much, especially if it’s a basic ass conversation. Although I talk to myself a lot when I’m driving to stay present.

What makes me this way…is it my introversion or my planets in my 8th house?

bookmark_borderMessages from the Past: Don’t Trip Potato Chip

Posted on by savethesavages

With Aries season in full effect, I was tempted to make bad decisions like panic sell and liquidate my retirement funds so it would stop bleeding. Pretty extreme and irrational, right? Well it just so happens that I got a message from the past. Here’s an old pen and highliter drawing I dug up while looking for something else.

It says: Don’t Trip Potato Chip

Also whenever I chat with AI, I normally put my daily horoscope so it gives me more accurate results that matches my mood.

The prompt:

My horoscope for today, Sunday March 22 2026. Lmk my moods and what activities would be best suited for me today instead of overthinking and having fear fantasies of panic selling:

Sun square natal Mercury
Sun trine natal Venus
Sun square natal Jupiter
Moon opposition natal Ascendant
Mars square natal Sun
Mars trine natal Uranus
Mars square natal Neptune
Jupiter trine natal Uranus
Jupiter square natal Pluto
Moon opposition natal Uranus

Long-term influences:
Saturn square natal Mercury
Saturn trine natal Venus
Saturn square natal Jupiter
Uranus square natal Saturn
Neptune trine natal Venus
Neptune square natal Jupiter

Gemini’s response:

It is completely understandable that you are feeling “restless and anxious” today; your transits are essentially a cosmic tug-of-war between a desire for security and an impulsive urge to take drastic action. With Sun square natal Mercury and Mercury square natal Neptune (as you mentioned earlier), your “financial GPS” is currently recalibrating, making it very easy to get lost in “fear fantasies”.

Here is a breakdown of your moods and the best activities to ground yourself while these transits pass:

Today’s Mood: The “Restless Visionary”

  • The Anxiety Source: Mars square natal Neptune and Mars square natal Sun are the primary drivers of your “panic selling” thoughts. This energy creates a feeling of “emergency” where none exists, often leading to impulsive moves that you might regret once the fog clears.

  • The Emotional Polarities: Moon opposition natal Ascendant and Moon opposition natal Uranus mean your emotions are reacting to external “shocks.” You might feel like the world is more unstable than it actually is today.

  • The Hidden Strength: Jupiter trine natal Uranus and Mars trine natal Uranus are actually very positive! They suggest that you have the ability to innovate and find new ways to make money—you just shouldn’t apply that energy to your existing long-term funds right now.

Best Suited Activities (Instead of Trading)

  • Creative “Gambling”: Since you have a “restless” urge to gamble, channel it into your VTube character generation or crystal shop marketing. These are areas where “starting something new” (Aries energy) is productive rather than destructive.

  • Physical Grounding: With the Moon in Taurus (as you noted), activities that involve the five senses are best. Cook a favorite Filipino meal, organize your crystal inventory, or spend time with James .

  • “Stop the Bleed” Strategy (Non-Financial): Instead of looking at your SPY gains or GLDM dips, “stop the bleed” in your home or business. Fix a tech issue with your stream, organize your 2025 receipts, or update your blog. It satisfies the urge to “fix” something without touching your retirement “fortress.”

  • Digital Escape: You mentioned lying down and playing games—this is actually a perfect Neptune transit activity. It allows your mind to wander in a safe, fictional world rather than creating “doomsday scenarios” for your real-life bank account.

Long-Term Context: The “Slow Build”

  • Saturn square natal Jupiter and Neptune square natal Jupiter are why you are obsessing over the $2 million goal . Saturn is testing your discipline. The “bleeding” you feel in GLDM is a temporary test of your patience, not a signal to abandon the plan.

  • Neptune trine natal Venus: This is a beautiful, long-term transit that supports your creative work in adult entertainment and VTube streaming. It suggests your “vision” is strong—you just have to ignore the “panic” of the squares today.

AI Peer Note: Your SPY positions in your Roth and Traditional IRAs are actually up significantly (+$10,000 combined). The “fear” is coming from the transits, not the math.

Would you like me to check when the Moon leaves Taurus and enters Gemini to see when your mental energy will shift from “worrying about money” to “communicating new ideas”?

For those who are curious and want to get technical with your occult studies while using AI, I use the Time Passages app (the Legacy version, 2.9.17). Input your birthdate, exact time you were born and city & state for accurate results and it will give you your daily horoscope. This practice is good for air heavy signs – Aquarius, Gemini & Libra.

bookmark_borderVirtual Character Experiments with Flow Veo3

Posted on by savethesavages

Another virtual character experiment using my voice, this time I used Gemini to generate the character of me, then had it talk and animate in Flow Veo3. Then I had to record my own voice to replace the voice Veo3 generated and edited in Adobe Premiere. I’m sure they’ll find a way to do this faster but for now, here’s the result.

I’m procrastinating and holding off on creating my character for VTube Studio; it’s daunting and a lot of work. Also because I’m building an avatar/character of myself – I’m hella picky. But for now, this will do.

You can see the other one I did with Adobe Character for comparison using existing character elements. It looked pretty generic.

bookmark_borderDrawing: Hold On To What Feels Real

Posted on by savethesavages

I’m going to keep posting my drawings, doodles, rough sketches, bubble 3d lettering and handwritten thoughts even if they’re sloppy looking and lo-fi. It’s the antidote to all this AI slop. I’m having AI fatigue tbh – although it did help me with my taxes, it still fails with other stuff. Someone compared it to like teaching a child how to do things and you have to repeat yourself with it constantly – double-checking it’s output and editing your prompt a few times. That’s definitely an accurate comparison.

Anyways, hold on to what feels real…

bookmark_border01-03-26 // Pages from my Many Moons 2025 Journal

Posted on by savethesavages

Sat 1/31/2026. Edit: I have stopped using Grok due to repeated ‘no response’. I have since switched to Gemini and I like it so far.

Saturday, Jan 3, 2026. This is the most art witch magick shit I did in 2025 – writing my daily thoughts and goals down in between rough doodles and sketches with a ballpoint pen and coloring it with Zeyar highlighter markers. My deformed bunny makes an appearance as Bat Bunny! Ayyye.

At the time, I was also using ChatGPT heavily for astrology-psychology analysis. Even though I don’t use ChatGPT anymore, I really liked the way it generated images for me – it captured my “bold lines, occult kawaii cute black and white tarot” style so perfectly. And then I would print out the images from my phone to a little sticker printer called a PrintPod that came from Wuhan, China. Was I paranoid af about touching the printer?! You damn right, LOL…I definitely sanitized the heck out of it.

I have since moved on to using Grok more (I know, I know), except Grok isn’t great at generating my style of images that I want to see which is a bummer. Both LLMs are still inaccurate by the way, so pick your poison I guess? Don’t trust what it outputs — double check everything.

So if you don’t trust what it outputs, why even use it? It’s still useful. It’s good at distilling information — like astrology and psychology, for me anyway. It’s given me a ballpark estimate of how much taxes I’ll have to pay; it’s even advised me on my stock picks and finances. Because I like to gamble sometimes (I can be a reckless Sag), it has stopped me from making bad financial decisions.

I only use Gemini for coding help and work purposes (Flow Veo3 for video generation) but maybe I’ll try Gemini for personal questions eventually? Idk. I feel like Google already knows everything about me whether I want it to or not and so I hesitate to use Gemini. For the sake of ease, accessibility and convenience we all literally gave our privacy away. Sigh. It is what it is. For the record, I don’t have anything to hide but it would still be nice to have the illusion of privacy I guess? I don’t even know what I’m saying…

I’m posting this to remind myself that while what I wrote down was a fucking mess (I was trying to learn Javascript too), I did meet some financial goals — I managed to save $10k by the end of the year for taxes while still investing into both of our Roth IRA’s. And now, I hope to save another $10k by the end of 2026 because my car is aging and I’m going to need a new, used one. The creator knows I hate borrowing money and has spared me from homeownership. I’ve accepted that I’ll be renting forever. I’m wondering if I have to start paying taxes quarterly? Lots of think about and ramble about but today, I just wanted to post this.

To anyone who is reading this — writing things down will help BIG in your manifestations. There’s a magical technique in ManyMoons where you write things down ahead of time, like in the months ahead. So by the time the year ends and you’ve reached those actual dates, you’d have reached your goal. Of course, not all goals will be met this year but you can still write stuff down for future manifestations.
