​Like Marmite, Grammy-Award winning singer-songwriter John Mayer seems to divide opinion. People either love him or loathe him. Find him brilliant or boring. After a lengthy time away recording in the studio, the sultry singer is back with his new album, The Search For Everything, and accompanying world tour that rocks up to The O2 tonight and tomorrow (May 11 and 12).
 
We’re not sure what we make of the Who You Love artiste but, as huge fans of Marmite, we thought it was worth a little spoonful of magic to find out more about the mysterious Mr Mayer. Our oracles did not disappoint…
 
Scratch The Surface
He’s had some controversial moments in his career, been known to be a tad loose-tongued when it comes to his bedroom antics and is considered by many to be an arrogant jerk but, the tarot suggests, the Connecticut-born singer is not all that bad. He’s done much of his growing up in the spotlight which, our guides say, has done wonders for his ego but not much for his emotional maturity. The cards show that like a fine wine he will improve with age which is why, with the Big 4-0 looming, he will begin to show a more mellow and considered face to the world. Our crystals suggest the penny has finally dropped for the star. Bedroom gymnastics will always be important to him but he will now find value in curling up with a good book, watching a movie and spending quiet time with that Forever Person by his side. Our Witch Twitch says the best is yet to come for him – and from him.

​Superman
If the Man of Steel has drawn you to his vibration today you are being reminded you have the inner strength to take on any problem, confront any situation no matter how difficult it would appear. What or whom is challenging you at the moment? You have a strong moral core; you are a person of your word.  On the one hand you feel you should step into assist, on the other you are tired of always being called upon, always putting others' needs before your own. Everyone in your sphere knows this, too. It’s your kryptonite. You’ll always go the extra mile, pick up the cheque, stand aside to let others step in the spotlight. What if you didn’t? What if it was all about you? Perhaps, this time, it will be…

Batman
You don’t need a super power to be a superhero. This is the message being sent to you if The Dark Knight’s batarang has whizzed by to blur your vision. What are you afraid of? What truly lies within? There is much you keep shrouded from the world. If this takes the form of a talent, a secret, an idea, a creative project that you’re musing on in your cowl-covered head then Gotham’s finest is saying perhaps it’s now time to bring it to the attention to those in your universe. Don’t let doubt, insecurity, fear of failure or rejection prevent you from being true to yourself – to revealing your true self. The message is loud and clear: Stop hiding, start living.
 
Wonder Woman
Strength comes in different guises. If Wonder Woman aka Diana Prince has pulled you in with her lasso of truth you are being asked to look carefully at the image you are projecting to the world. How you see yourself is not the way that others see you. The message from this Princess of Themyscira is stay strong and avoid getting caught up in your own insecurities or self-doubts as this can easily lead you to spin out of control. You don’t have to be a ball-buster to get ahead. A cool, considered approach is better than a hot, huffy one so, the advice here is, don’t let your emotions get the better of you.
 
Spiderman
There is something or someone that has you caught in a web of paralysis. If Spiderman has swung into your eye line today, you are being urged to look at a relationship or work situation that has run its course or that no longer is bringing you joy. Who or what is making your heart sink? You don’t have to think too hard about the answer because you already know. What are you clinging to? What are you frightened to release? And, perhaps more pertinently, why? Tap into your Spidey-senses to find the courage to move on. It’s not easy to let go but the message here is the sooner you swing into action the sooner your life will be filled with more meaning. Go on, you might not have wings but you’ll soon be flying.
 
Black Widow
When it comes to playing games, you are a master tactician. This is a precious life skill and, when used wisely, can bring great rewards. If Black Widow has lured you into her orbit today, ask yourself what game you are playing or if you are being played. Are you simply a pawn or are you living up to your potential as the made piece? Perhaps, it’s time to switch tactics or even sides. You’re smart enough to recognise when the odds are not in your favour. Fortunately, you have the power of attraction, drawing people into your orbit with ease, so it will take no time and little effort to get back into winning ways.
 
Storm
If you have been challenged to look into the eye of Storm then you are being reminded that time and tide waits for no man. What have you been avoiding doing or saying? There’s a shift in weather patterns coming, the outcome of which will be determined by how – or if - you address your current circumstances. Sunshine or rain? Blizzards or blue skies? Act now and the choice will be yours. Stick your head in the sand and the message from Storm is loud and clear you’ll be caught up in a maelstrom which will leave you not just battered and bruised but reeling directionless for the next couple of years. Still think it’s easier to close your eyes to what you know you need to do?

He made his name playing a chubby lovable dimwitted slacker in American political TV comedy Parks And Recreation before landing the part of a ripped star-crossing badass in the movie Guardians Of The Galaxy which catapulted his career into the stellar sphere. Chris Pratt is the Hollywood man of the moment, the wise-cracking actor who has made the leap from small screen to the silver effortlessly, with directors queuing up to work with him and multi-film contracts worth millions.

The heavy-hitter is back with the second instalment of Marvel Studios’ Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol.2 in which he plays the role of Peter Quill aka Star-Lord, a half-human-half-alien leader of the Guardians.
​
Our Witch Twitch is always intrigued by the rise of supporting players into major players so we set to work casting the runes to discover more about the irresistible Mr Pratt.

Scratch The Surface
Family is at the heart of what drives forward The Jurassic World star. He wants to be able to provide for those nearest and dearest, give them the best of everything.

Our guides warn, in his quest for financial security, he may take on too many projects which could result in his Tigger-like enthusiasm and energy being replaced by Eeyore moments.

Carrying a small tumbled piece of agate could help protect this from happening.
The Tarot shows that money is very important to the charming star and could, at times, see him becoming a little miserly over its use.

That being said it’s only because he wants to safeguard the future, protect against a time when the film and TV roles aren’t there.

Our Witch Twitch says listen up, Chris, the cards show that ain’t going to happen any time soon.  The Universe is permitting you to splash the cash. Go splurge.

Tarot Guide
The Four Of Wands has made an appearance in the tarot layout for the 37-year-old. This joyous card is a blessing and heralds a time for celebration.

It suggests the super sharp star is now at a point where he feels proud of his accomplishments and can accept that he has “made it”.

The Four Of Wands promises an exciting time ahead where parties and get-togethers are well favoured.

This merry-making minor arcana card also indicates that it is now time for Chris to break free from circumstances that no longer suit and be open to new possibilities.
​
Our Witch Twitch says cut the shackles from self-imposed bonds such as body image because the past is well and truly behind you.

The One
On a romantic note, the Tarot reveals the star to be a one-woman man, with his wife, comedy actress Anna Faris, being The One.

Our guides say Chris functions best in a partnership and when coupled with the right person, Chris can achieve anything he chooses to pursue.

Since his marriage to The House Bunny star, he’s transformed from an overweight part player to a Hollywood hunk. Oh, and he’s a dad to four-year-old cutie Jack Daniels, too. It just goes to show what the power of love and persuasion can do.

The Tarot shows that Chris feels he struck gold when he met Faris and, in the words of UB40, believes she “saw then what they see now”. Our Witch Twitch predicts there could be some tricky times ahead for the golden couple, especially where leading ladies are concerned. However, the cards show, despite the relationship being tested,  it can survive the temptations of time.

The Future
Our guides say, with the Guardians Of The Galaxy and Jurassic Park franchises in his armoury Chris is now considered a major Hollywood hitter.

The silver screen is his playground and, as such, he can have his pick of the peachy roles and the mega bucks that come with them.

The Tarot shows him being likened to the new Harrison Ford, with some great projects on the horizon. 

However, the crystals suggest at times he will find the work/life balance difficult to manage. He’ll struggle at being away from his wife and son, frightened that he’s missing out on their lives.

He’ll battle against always having to be “on” and working hard at keeping super ripped. Muscled-up and buff Chris will yearn for a return to Mr Chubster.

The Tarot suggests he may even be tempted to pick a few movie roles which require him to pile on the pounds simply to let go and be able to indulge in his wife’s cooking.
​
Our Witch Twitch says this is your time, use it wisely – but don’t ever feel bad about chowing down and not using a spit bucket.

Britain’s Got Talent is back on our screens, with sassy Alesha Dixon once again taking her seat on the judging panel alongside Simon Cowell, David Walliams and Amanda Holden.

The down-to-earth celebrity is known for her trademark cackle and sizzling smile but what lies within? How did this little-known R’n’B girl group singer transform herself into one of the nation’s favourite TV golden girls?

Our Witch Twitch got to work with our crystals to find out.

Destiny Calling
Despite not being the most talented or often qualified individual in a room this Jill Of All Trades has a knack of being in the right place at the right time.

The Tarot suggests Alesha is not afraid to try something new. Opportunities knock and, even though they may take her out of her comfort zone, the vivacious BGT judge is happy to give them a bash.

Our guides say she has been gifted a “what’s-the-worst-that-can-happen?” attitude which is why success will always find her.
​
The Tarot shows that whatever route The Boy Does Nothing singer travels it may not lead her to the intended destination but will always result in a prosperous outcome. 
​
Our Witch Twitch says keep the pedal to the metal.

​Native American Totem
Alesha, 38, is under the guidance of Native American Totem Raven. Flying with Raven gifts Alesha with a positive outlook on life.

Her optimistic nature is highly contagious and draws people, especially power players, to her orbit.

Raven is a social spirit and prefers to fly with the flock than going solo which is why Alesha continually seeks out groups in which to work and socialise.

She’s just not that good or happy when she’s doing anything on her own and can often result in a downward shift in mood. Raven is idealistic and curious, which can often lead to trouble.
​
Our Witch Twitch says, as with Raven, Alesha should beware of shiny things – especially in the form of new encounters – as they are not always what they seem.

The infectious Alesha with her fellow BGT judges-cum-pals, David Walliams, Simon Cowell and Amanda Holden

Friends & Relationships
The Tarot shows Alesha is always on the lookout to expand her circle of friends.

She’s a mover and shaker happiest when she’s in a room full of people that she has brought together, circling from one to another, chit-chatting about everything from how to make the perfect slaw to the benefits of Spanx.

Our guides say she’s a fun gal to be around. On the romantic front, the Tarot suggests despite being in a six-year relationship with partner Azuka Ononye, with whom she shares three-year-old daughter Azura, Alesha is in no hurry to settle down.

Our guides say she still feels there may be someone else out there for her and, although content, always keeps an eye open to the possibility of being swept off her feet by an international man of mystery.

The crystals show an encounter with someone connected to a new professional project could seriously test her long-term relationship.
​
Our Witch Twitch warns the grass is not always greener but we sense that will not stop the celebrity from wanting to run barefoot through it. Our advice: Watch out for tics.

Alesha is the Princess of re-invention

Future Outcomes
Our guides say Alesha is the mother of re-invention. R’n’B girl band member, solo artist, model, Strictly glitterball winner turned panellist, yummy mummy, BGT judge, children’s author.

What you see is what you get until the next opportunity to try something new presents itself. Yet, our guides say, her strength lies in remaining true to her essence. The crystals show this may be challenged in her next venture.

Our guides say Alesha will need to dig deep and remain optimistic in a new, alien environment.

The Tarot shows she may be tested by a powerful industry player, very likely to be a woman, who holds the key to a fabulous new career move.

If Alesha can hold her nerve, remember her roots – maybe even rub a few crystals – she could find herself given a Golden Buzzer fastpass to a pinch-yourself Cinderella Fairytale experience.

Our Witch Twitch advises Alesha when you get the invitation to this glitter ball glide don’t sashay.
​
Britain’s Got Talent is on Saturdays on ITV from 8pm.

Listed by Forbes as one of the most influential male recording artists in the world, with more than 100million in sales worldwide and four Grammys, Bruno Mars is a global superstar.

So it’s hardly surprising the Locked Out Of Heaven singer’s 24K Magic World Tour, currently rocking out at The O2 , is sold out.  We’re huge fans of the talented Hawaiian-born performer and songwriter, having watched him dance to his own beat over the years.
​
So it was with a funky side step that we cast his runes and looked into the crystal ball to see what’s behind the megawatt smile, uber-cool style (there are not many who can rock a pink suit) and consummate showmanship.…

Destiny Calling
Peter Gene Hernandez aka Bruno Mars was always destined to perform. Having a professional musician as a father and a mother who could both sing and dance, it was in his genes to entertain. At four he took to the stage, performing as his idol Elvis, and basked in the attention and applause.

Friends & Relationships
A rarity in the entertainment world Bruno is both a considerate and compassionate person who, the crystals show, always finds the time to help people who frequently come to him for comfort and support.

The cards suggest Bruno enjoys being in the hustle and bustle of a crowd but equally likes to spend time alone with his nearest and dearest. Despite the trappings of superstardom, Bruno is down-to-earth and knows what truly matters in life: Friends and Family.

Our guides say Bruno is serious when it comes to love and romance which is highlighted by his relationship with model and swimwear designer Jessica Caban, with whom he has been dating for six years. When this guy loves, he does it big, bold and long-lasting.

​The tarot shows that unlike many of his contemporaries this boy doesn’t feel the need to chase skirts, confident both in his self and appeal, knowing that if he wanted to, he could. Our Witch Twitch says Bruno needs to tap into his intuition more and go with his gut feeling when it comes to opening up to new people. There’s likely to be some big news later on in the year connected to his relationship, too! 

Totem
Thirty-one-year-old Bruno is under the guidance of Native American Totem Turtle.  This magical totem teaches those it mentors about walking one’s own path in peace and sticking to it with determination and sincerity. Turtle carries his home on his back which helps Bruno to feel at ease wherever he is and in whichever company he keeps. The ancient animal spirit travels at its own pace, on land slowly, in water fast and agile. Turtle reminds Bruno that regular breaks from his busy life need to be scheduled to ensure long-lasting health and vitality. Our Witch Twitch says cutting out the cigarettes and cigars would also help! 

​
​Future Challenge
The tarot shows the award-winning artist needs to find some mechanism to cope with stress. It is his Achilles heel and, if not managed correctly, will lead to long-term problems. Our guides say over-eating and indulging in the wrong things is not the answer as this will see the performer struggling with digestive problems as well as sleep issues. The crystals show the performer needs to look into meditation and natural remedies as a way to combat stress and to achieve the balance that so often is out of kilter.

​It’s in the stars that Bruno is to be dad – and that could come quicker than he plans. Despite coming as a surprise, he’ll take to the role with aplomb and will be happy to add a couple more to the Mars orbit in quick succession. The cards show the new responsibility will add another dimension to the star and will see him increasingly adopting a more relaxed approach to life. Our Witch Twitch says it will be a gift from the heavens to go some way to replacing a missing piece in his heart.

​Think movie big hitters and Scarlett Johansson probably wouldn’t feature in most people’s Top 10. But the Avengers Assembly actress is one of the highest paid stars in Hollywood, thanks in part to her role as Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe series and her brand ambassador deals with Dolce and Gabbana and SodaStream, with a reported £64.4million already tucked away in the bank.
 
With her new film Ghost In the Shell , in which she plays a cyborg policewoman, hitting the big screens on March 31 and her relationship status making recent headlines, our Witch Twitch was intrigued enough to ask the oracles more about the mysterious Manhattanite.
 
Scratch The Surface
This is one deep individual who the cards reveal has multiple layers, each masking a different characteristic and personality type. She is all things to all people; a chameleon, a shapeshifter, a muse. It’s what makes her so magnetic and why so many directors from auteurs like Woody Allen, Robert Redford and Sophia Coppola to blockbuster heavyweights like Jon Favreau and Joss Whedon choose to work with her.

Abel Tesfaye better known as The Weeknd, is one of the hottest R&B artists on the planet, with A-listers like Beyoncé and Bono queuing up to collaborate with him. Notoriously shy, he’s only recently stepped into the limelight as a result of his high-profile girlfriends (more about those later). The award-winning Canadian singer-songwriter brings his Starboy: Legend of the Fall World Tour to The O2 this week (March 7 and 8). Intrigued by the man of mystery, we happily cast his runes to find out what’s behind the façade.
 
Relationships
Despite giving the impression he is shy, the Starboy hitmaker can be a real charmer using both words (you’ve heard his songs) and gestures (he likes to give gifts of dogs) to win over the ladies. The cards show the bedroom is an extension of his personality, where he enjoys the pursuit of excellence and can be surprisingly versatile and creative. Our guides say it’s no coincidence one of his tracks features on Fifty Shades of Grey!

To win Abel’s heart the cards show one needs to be more than just a pretty face. Our Abel likes his women to be interesting, with something to say, and often something to hide. Being able to deal with this chap’s foibles and eccentricities is also very much required if any relationship is to go the distance. Is SelAbel in for the long haul? Our Witch Twitch isn’t convinced, with the runes indicating in the long term Miss Gomez may be a little too clingy for the free-spirited Mr Tesfaye. 

Scratch The Surface
Rarely giving interviews, preferring to let his music do the talking, there’s an air of mystery about The Weeknd. But, the cards suggest that’s exactly how he’s cultivated it. Our guides say he’s of the opinion less is more until the right time to reveal all. Abel is a true visionary who has the ability to grasp and action far-reaching concepts.  A creative free thinker, the 27-year-old doesn’t allow others to manipulate or guide him. This boy has known where he was going – and how he was going to get there – from the moment he heard Michael Jackson’s Dirty Diana. Our Witch Twitch says there’s no more hiding now, though; the myth is about to become a legend - which is exactly in the Toronto Grand Master’s plan. Drake who?

Tarot Guide
The dizzying alternative R&B talent is under the influence of The Magician who as a guide creates the power to manifest dreams. Under this influence, the Ethiopian born has been transformed from a high school drop-out into a global star. The Magician helps those he mentors to enjoy all of the abundance life has to offer by empowering them with the ability to focus on their goals. He bestows them with charm, too, lots of it so that Abel will always get what he wants without it being too much of a challenge. However, our Witch Twitch warns the artist to not abuse these gifts as the shadow side of the Magician can lead to the misuse of power and the manipulation of those closest. Use your power wisely, young Padawan.    

The Future Looks Bright
Already being compared to his inspirations Michael Jackson and Prince the high flying vocalist is in the ascendant. His music is no longer on the sidelines, crossing smoothly into the mainstream. The cards show he’s very much a brand now, with his own label, pop hits and even a designer clothing line for H&M (pictured above). It’s only the beginning. There’s a lot more to come, with collaborations across a number of eclectic platforms, with a diverse range of artists and performers.

 
However, there’s another much deeper layer to The Hills singer. Our guides say Abel has a social conscience, too. He’s a humanitarian, philanthropic and interested in making a difference. The cards suggest he knows he has a life purpose and it’s all part of the “deal”. The future shows him championing many causes and using his celebrity status to make a real impact. Our Witch Twitch says continue to believe, and the world will be a better place. The Weeknd starts here!    
​

Widely considered to be one of the greatest boxers of all time, undefeated as a professional and a champion in five different weight classes, Floyd Mayweather Jr is a sporting legend. Now retired and heading the lucrative Mayweather Promotions, the 40-year-old lives the life of a playboy, with $695million in the bank, a fleet of fast cars, a private jet to fly him to exotic locales and the ubiquitous string of model girlfriends to keep him warm at night.
 
The superstar rolls into indigo at The O2 on Monday (March 6) with his Floyd Mayweather Undefeated Tour, an evening spent sharing insight into the boxer’s career. We thought we’d take our own unique look by casting the ringmeister’s runes…    
 
Destiny Calling
Pretty Boy was always destined to fight. Dealt a tough hand of cards as a little one – his mother was a heroin addict, his father a drug dealer - our guides say Floyd understood very early on that he would have to literally fight his way out of his circumstances. Growing up, he could have chosen to walk the same path as many of those around him but once those gloves were on as a seven-year-old kid, there was no stopping him. Arguably the best defensive boxer the sport has ever known and the most accurate puncher, Floyd discovered his calling.

Honey G is one of the most controversial contestants that has appeared on ITV’s X Factor. Her rapping skills and “ghetto” persona divided a nation, with some labelling her fake, others, including Snoop Dogg and 50 Cents, calling her genius.
 
If you thought – or hoped - you’d seen the last of her you’d be wrong as the rapmeister is back bringing it large to the X Factor Live tour at The O2 on Saturday (February 25). Our Witch Twitch loves a conundrum so we were happy to cast the runes, to find out what’s really going on behind Honey G’s shades.
 
Destiny Calling
There must be something in the water at Dr Challoner’s High School in Little Chaffont, Buckinghamshire, for not only did it produce the supreme ambitionist Amal Clooney nee Alamuddin but also Anna Gilford aka Honey G. Anything you can do… Surprisingly, despite one being married to an Hollywood A-lister and the other, well, not, these middle-class ladies share more in common than one would think. The cards suggest a sense of destiny and an innate ability to put themselves in the right place at the right time. However, our guides say that regardless what the media would infer Honey G is the more genuine of the two. You make your own luck in this world and this is where the The Honey G Show singer has excelled. She wasn’t born to greatness, hasn’t married into it but is desperately trying to carve a way to it. Our Witch Twitch simply says go girl.

​The Universe is always finding ways to communicate with us but we very often don’t recognise or understand what is being said. It is constantly sending us messages through signs, warnings, our own intuition in order to help us navigate smoothly through life. To tap into this energy, we need to be open to receiving it and willing to hear it. We need to take note of recurring patterns and accept there is no such thing as coincidence. The more we tune into our intuition and inner world, the more clearly our dialogue with the universe becomes. Our Witch Twitch has worked with our guides to help get you started.
 
Take 30 to 60 seconds to look over the six images (above). Then close your eyes and relax. One image will stand out for you, emerge in your mind’s eye. This is the one that has a special meaning for you, a message from your guides. Read and take note of what they have to say. Seek and ye shall find...
 
Boots (top row left)
Now is not the time to bow to pressure. You are being urged to stick to your guns, to fight for what is right, even if it means upsetting your partner, boss, or work colleague. There will be times when you feel beleaguered, that you are climbing a mountain that has no summit. Don’t worry this will eventually pass and those very people who have been non-supportive will come around and listen to your reasoning.

Your integrity will be handsomely rewarded. However, be warned about getting all smug and I-told-you-so as this will backfire and send you back to square one. There’s only so many mountains that someone can climb.

Bottles (top row middle)
You may be feeling that you need to escape from it all. Questioning your very existence and life purpose. You are being urged to open yourself up to new possibilities and experiences, especially any that involve travel.

This is a good time to consider what it is you truly want in your world. Anything is possible right now and your guides will be working with you show the way. Look out for signs from them maybe a popped champagne cork, a forgotten old photo falling from a book, a feather in a strange place, a chance meeting. These will have meaning when they appear so take note of the time, the day, the location. A new path is calling.

Technology (top row right)
You may be feeling you are living a lie or that someone close to you is not revealing their true self. Maybe a relationship is suffering through a lack of trust and truth. It’s time to face up to what is really happening around you, to stop ignoring the niggling feelings that are signalling things are not all they appear. 

The universe is giving you permission to snoop. If you think someone is hiding something from you get to work on finding out what it is. Hack their emails, their phone messages, hire a PI to follow them. You’ll either be proved right or wrong. Either way you’ll feel a whole lot better knowing that you know.
 
Paints (bottom row left)
You are being urged to bring new creativity into your life. This may be through taking up a new pursuit like drawing or painting, joining a writers’ group or signing up for a dance class. Rumba, anyone? Let your imagination be your guide and allow your creative juices to flow. By unlocking that secret space within you will find that your life runs more smoothly.  You will feel more alive, more enriched and less bothered by the trivial things that so often nag you.

A sexy, more confident you will emerge, attracting a host of new opportunities, both in business and in love. Who knows you’ll feel that good about yourself you may even decide to become a life model. Nothing venture, nothing gained.
 
Forest (bottom row middle)
Hanging on to the past is severely damaging the gift that is the present. You are being asked to get out into nature to let these anchoring feelings go. Take a walk in the park, run along a beach, cycle through a woodland - anything to free yourself from urban constraints. The natural elements are waiting to cleanse your thoughts, enabling you to dream a brighter future into being.

Shake off old habits, ditch negative patterns of behaviour and, if needs be, kick to the curb anyone now surplus to your new requirements. There’s a fresh start to be explored. Do not let your own fear or that of others prevent you from moving on.
 
Theatre (bottom row right)
You may be experiencing plenty of drama in your world to which you may or may not have contributed. The problem is your energy is taking a bashing as a result of it and it could all end in tears, yours. You are being advised to step away from the situation, to release yourself from the conflict. An argument needs at least two players. Take your bow and exit stage left. You’ll feel a whole lot better once you’re in the wings, observing like a pro rather than performing as a diva.

You have a new role to play, one which may not be as dramatic but will certainly win you plaudits. Rise above the rabble and become the true star of the show.
