DYKE NITE BALTIMORE X VEIL PARTING PRESENTS:
SAPPHIC SACRAMENT
This year for our annual Halloween themed party we`ve teamed up with @veil_parting! @goblin.rinsete will be spinning sets so blasphemous they will bring you to your knees... hopefully in front of someone who will keep you praying for more! Our Unholy Sermon this year will be performed live by @voshvault and will surely take you to church. If pain is your vice, enter a new circle of hell at our spanking booth serviced by Dyke Nite veteran, @oberonthedemon and a special guest! Don`t forget to bring cash tributes and offerings for all the spirits entertaining you throughout our very unholy evening! We can`t wait to see your costumes this year!
Masks are encouraged, discrimination of any kind is not.

The Seven of Pentacles and The Devil is a Tarot card combination that should not be taken lightly. When these two cards are combined in a Tarot reading, it usually reflects a significant challenge where the person is feeling trapped, struggling to see the fruits of their labor. It is a combination that usually reflects bondage, temptation, and waiting.
