I talked about making some sort of tutorial last year, and definitely not late at all here I go! I know a lot of people struggle with full body & anatomy, so here’s the techniques I use when drawing bodies :P

There’s most definitely grammar & spelling errors somewhere so sorry for that heh.

NOW WITH SLIGHTLY LESS “BATMAN BEING BATMAN” RESULTS

So I noticed there was a glut of new hits on the old one, and I remembered I’d been wanting to make a bigger new one. This time, I’m also starting a tag #randraw for people who want to post and share their results.

HAVE FUN!

[psuedofolio]

THE RANDOM DRAWING IDEA GENERATOR 3.0! Now with less than a one in five thousand chance to get Batman Being Batman!

This time around, it’s got it’s own little mini site where you can click and get your results! It should be even easier now to mulligan until you get a result that actually makes you NEED to draw it. And when you do draw it, please remember to share you creation with the tag #randraw. I’d love to see it!

All thanks go to Alexander Lozada for putting the code together. It’s been really swell working it out. And you should go check out their other projects, including the awesome Creativity Cards you might’ve seen going around.

This is the best, but certainly not the last you’ll see of the Random Drawing Generator. There are over 5000 possible results, and many prompts are infinite by design. But there’s still room to grow. As always, I’ll be polling for ideas on what else to include. So, guys, what’ve you got?

Finally, a simple explanation.

This is really cool! I wish someone would have broken it down for me this way when I started learning about astrology 🌌

🛡 Warding 🛡

Disclaimer: This is all based on my research, path, opinion & experiences! Intro: I really was holding out on doing this post because it’s such a big, important topic to cover and I really don’t want to mess it up or get anything wrong. This post needs to be done though, people have asked if I have such a post and an anon suggested it. So finally, here it is.  - What Is Warding?: Warding is a type of magick, it is the act of creating an energetic barrier around you, your home, an object, ect. They can be temporary or permanent, although typically they are cast with the long term in mind. They can banish or turn away whatever you choose. Warding is an excellent skill to have because it can keep you, and even others safe and with practice you can do it anytime with just about whatever you have on hand.  When Should I Ward?: Whenever you want an energetic barrier around you, most people consistently ward their home, themselves or their place of practice. Some people even ward their space every time they prepare for a spell. It should be done consistently in any area you want protected, but exactly where and how often is entirely up to the practitioner.  What Should I Do Before?: Cleanse, a ward is a barrier of energy and in the same way that it keeps things out it also keeps things in. You don’t want to trap anything inside of it. Cleanse yourself before you ward yourself. Cleanse your space before you ward your space!  Tips Before You Ward: Phrasing:  Keep the phrasing in mind! You don’t want to keep anything out that you want in, or let something in that you want out. If you’re chanting or using sigils ect keep in mind exactly what you want to keep out both in your methods and in your mind. Covering everything:  Make sure to cover everything, a ward is useless if there’s a weakness in it or if the ceiling & floor aren’t probably covered. Be super thorough!  Layering Your Wards: One small little wimpy barrier? Ha, the spirits say as they scramble into your home to wreak havoc! You need to layer your wards, don’t just use one method one time, there’s no such thing as too much warding.  What Are Some Ways That I Can Ward?: Now we’ll get right down to the methods you can use to ward yourself and your space! Remember that warding is important and needs to be effective, don’t try anything that you don’t have experience with for warding. At first, focus on the stuff you know. If you like sigils, use sigils at first and slowly work your way into using other more complex methods or methods that solely rely on your abilities. • Circle Casting:  You cast a circle by summoning the four elements to protect & energize what is in the circle.  - Here’s my post about circles & how to cast them  • Chanting/Speaking: Come up with a protective chant you can use to ward your space. This chant could be someone else’s or your own as long as you feel it’s effective. Speak it aloud and visualize a layer of energy protecting your space.  • Incense: Burn a protective incense in the space you’d like to ward and visualize a barrier protecting your space. • Athame:  Draw out the line of your ward with your athame, visualize the wall appearing, covering everything with a thick layer of energy.  • Spraying: Spray a mix of blessed/magickal waters and or herbs with protective properties in the space you want to ward.  • Sigils: Create a sigil using your favorite method with the intent to “ward” or “protect/protection.” Then charge and activate it as a layer of protection! Here’s my post on sigils if you’re interested in that: - Sigil Post • Jar Spells: You could mix up a jar spell for warding, set it in your house and forget it as a layer of warding.  - My protective jar spell post • Anointment: Anoint the doorways of your space, you could also anoint the ceiling, floor, walls, corners, honestly go for it.  • Salt: Sprinkle salt all around the edge of your home or space. Make sure to sprinkle salt on the INSIDE of your harm as salt can harm plants & wildlife if used outside. If you’d like to make a barrier on the outside of your home, you can use dried & crushed eggshells in place of salt. - Post on how to make eggshell powder here -  • Hag stones: Hag stones are stones with holes in them that have been corroded into the stone because of rushing water. It is believed rushing water is protective & cleansing so if you wear a stone that sat in it long enough to have parts corroded away, that the stone will maintain and keep those properties with it. It’s a great way to personally ward yourself, and an excuse to go out in nature.  They look like this! 

• Energy Manipulation: If you’ve got a knack for manipulating energy, you can create a barrier through work and visualization that surrounds yourself or your space. This isn’t recommended for beginners though! Links: - Horse Warding Charm By @anothersusurrus - House Warding Spritz Mixture By @seleneblackwell Both of these are great if you’re looking for specific spells, types of magick, correspondences, sigils, ect! - Protection Magic Masterpost Part 1 By @auricwitch - Protection Magic Masterpost Part 2 By @auricwitch Personal Wards: Also remember not just to ward your space but yourself, if you layer your home with wards, what happens when you leave? Exactly. Keep yourself safe too! Circle casting & hag stones are great methods I mentioned above that are good for personal warding.  Can I Ward Specific Things And Not Others?: Absolutely! I mentioned this in the phrasing section of this post, keep in mind exactly what you want to keep out when you’re warding. I like words like “negative” or “harmful” or “with ill intent” because they don’t necessarily keep out the Fae or positive/neutral spirits but it does keep out anything that wants to harm you in general. Just think about it ahead of time, find wording or a phrase you like and keep that in mind as you ward.  What If I Live With People?: If you’re out of the broom closet, explain to your family/roommates what you’re doing and why you’re doing it and make sure they’re cool with it and are aware of what’s going on. If you’re not out of the broom closet, you may have to resort to only warding yourself/your room, & that’s okay!  I hope this helps someone or teaches them something new! Enjoy! Have a lovely day 💖

💭 How I Interpret My Dreams 💭

Introduction

Okay, so, you guys wanted more posts relating to me and me experiences! While this is still informational, it is also very personal and truly entirely based on my process and experiences. 

If you’re here for straight up stories, and more about me, do not fear! More posts will be coming soon showing off my stories relating to witchcraft and the supernatural! I was thinking of doing one on my experiences with spirits, if you have any other ideas feel free to let me know! Thanks for reading all of this bit.

Disclaimer: This is entirely based on me and my experiences! I usually put this in my posts, but this post truly is entirely based on me. I’ve barely researched this topic at all, unlike my other posts. Which often compile my research. Now! Onto the good stuff.

Having Dreams This is for those of you that don’t often dream! If you have difficulty dreaming, the first thing I would suggest is having a before bed routine. I find if your brain knows you’re about to sleep, you sleep deeper. And dream better. Another thing to try would be placing amethyst or willow under your pillow. Additionally I find I have the most intense dreams during naps. Just a few ideas! 

The Dream  Of course the first step is having a dream to interpret, if you wake up from a dream I would suggest immediately writing it down. Otherwise, you will forget, and won’t have any way to remember it. Writing as much as you can down is preferred because you have a record of every detail from yourself and your perspective.

Dissection  Once you’ve got the dream written down, discuss it with yourself (Or with someone else, I often find it’s easier to process for me personally this way.)  Pick out things that seem symbolic, odd, things that resonate with you. A dream never has a single meaning, but usually there’s a focus in both symbolism and the point it is trying to get across. Focus on the thing that sticks out to the most. Make sure to write what you notice down.  Research Now that you’ve got the main points of the dream you want to focus on, research! I have a book for dream interpretation I use often but it’s not for everyone, so, google is your best friend. Remember not just to look into specific items or scenery but also words, actions, dreams do not seem to communicate with me following the laws human communication does. Do not approach as if you were the one sending the messages, think outside the box.  Compiling  Okay so you have the points of your dream together, their common meanings, now organize them. If you haven’t written or typed them up, do that. Compile everything together and look at what makes sense, I often approach this part sort of like when I do cartomancy. You have to look at the points that stick out and what makes sense with what you already know. Conclusion So in conclusion, dream interpretation is very similar to cartomancy or other forms of divination, except you must seek out the symbolisms and keywords yourself.  So, in summary.  - Have a dream  - Write it down  - Pick out parts of the dream  - Research their meanings  - Take a look at the big picture and common themes between these meanings - Interpret them  This is totally just my approach!  I hope this helped you or you learned something.  Enjoy! Have a lovely day 💖

💫Astrology 101💫

THE SIGNS: •Aries• March 21 - April 19 • Fire • Symbol: The Ram • Traits: Passionate, intense, unrestricted. •Taurus• April 20 - May 20 • Earth • Symbol: The Bull • Traits: Stubborn, materialistic, argumentative, loyal. •Gemini• May 21 - June 20 • Air • Symbol: The Twins • Traits: Two faced, versatile,. energetic, artistic. •Cancer• June 21 - July 22 • Water • Symbol: The Crab • Traits: Emotional, sensitive, nurturing, complicated. •Leo• July 23 - August 22 • Fire • Symbol: The Lion • Traits: Popular, social, creative, prideful. •Virgo• August 23 - September 22 • Earth • Symbol: The Virgin • Traits: Neat, particular, clever, successful. •Libra• September 23 - October 22 • Air • Symbol: The Scales • Traits: Adventurous, indecisive, social. They value harmony, and balance.  •Scorpio• October 23 - November 21 • Water • Symbol: The Scorpion• Traits: Attractive, charismatic, cold, self reliant, secretive. •Sagittarius• November 22 - December 21 • Fire • Symbol: The Archer • Traits: Open-minded, insensitive, loving, adaptable. •Capricorn• December 22 - January 19 •  Earth • Symbol: The Goat • Traits: Hard-working, straightforward, unsatisfied, dry, pessimistic. •Aquarius• January 20 - February  18 • Air • Symbol: The Water Bearer • Traits: Admired, distant, eccentric, liked, innovative. •Pisces• February 19 - March 20 • Water • Symbol: The Fish • Traits: Artsy, free, sensitive, alluring, strange. THE ELEMENTS: In groups of 3, signs are associated with elements.  Here’s some general traits of each element: Air: Bubbly, communicative, curious, clever. Water: Fluid (pun intended), intuitive, sensitive, emotional. Earth: Stubborn, practical, consistent. Fire: Fiery (of course), intense, chaotic, fun. CARDINAL, MUTABLE, FIXED, WHAT IS IT?: In groups of 4, the signs are either fixed, mutable, or cardinal I’ll be explaining what that means next! The quality of fixation is associated with, Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, & Aquarius. It gives them traits of persistence, determination, they are concentrated & hold depth. On the other hand, they can be quite stubborn, and single minded. The quality of mutability is associated with Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius,& Pisces. It gives them traits of adaptability, versatility, calmness, they are resourceful and like to learn. The cardinal quality is associated with, Aries, Cancer, Libra, & Capricorn. It gives them traits of quickness, ambition and enthusiasm. THE PLANETS:  I like to think of the planets as components that influence different parts of your personality, reactions, and being. • Sun Sign • Your sun sign is what people are referring to when they say “Oh I’m a Gemini!” It is based off of your birthday. Nothing too specific like time or place. It dictates your personality as a whole. • Moon Sign • Your moon sign dictates your inner feelings. It is the second most important sign. • Rising/Ascendant Sign • Your rising sign dictates how people see you, first impressions, and how you interact with groups. Those were the three are the most important, let’s get on to the rest! • Mercury •   In Roman mythology, Mercury was the messenger of the Gods. It only makes sense that the planet in astrology would be associated with communication, skill, logic & learning. • Venus •  Venus, another Roman God(dess) was associated with all things relationships, this planet influences love, romance, & friendships. • Mars •  Roman God of war, he was intense, confronting, and a force to be reckoned with. This planet is passionate, aggressive,  it influences sex drive and your determination, how you confront people. • Jupiter •  Jupiter was the king of the Gods, the roman equivalent of Zeus. This planet influences luck and wealth. • Saturn •  Saturn is the Roman version of Kronos, God of time. This planet controls your karma, the balance of things and how you handle your life. Be reminded, time is always ticking.   • Uranus •  Uranus was, once again, the name of a roman God, the roman God of the sky. In many accounts, he was quite literally the sky. This planet represents change & news, the same way the sky is always changing. • Neptune •  Roman counterpart of Poseidon, God of the ocean. This planet represents all things hidden deep below. Your psychic abilities, thoughts, fantasies and dreams. • Pluto •  Last, but certainly not least we have Pluto. Roman version of Hades, God of the underworld, this planet represents rebirth, new beginnings, and power. Alrighty, that took me forever. I got this info from my brain, as in a lot of my own research in the past months. But also from all sorts of other sources, and my personal experiences. If you have any other astrology related things you’d like me to talk about or any corrections, please let me know! I hope this helped someone, it sure took a while. Enjoy! 🌟

Lucid Dreaming Masterpost

What is Lucid Dreaming?

Lucid dreaming is when you are in a dream but fully aware that you are in a dream, leading to you often being able to control the outcomes or certain aspects of the dream. You are able to live your fantasies and also are more likely to remember your dreams come morning.

With work Lucid dreaming can be improved into astral projection via sleep or dream walking where you can exit your dreams to enter the dreams of others or walk about the “dream plane”. Skilled lucid dreamers also often use their dreams for divination and problem solving due to how vivid they are and how it is easier to remember them.

Herbs for Lucid Dreaming: African Dream Bean, Blue Lotus, *Datura, *Mexican Dream Herb, Lavender, Mugwort, Rose Buds, Valerian Root, Wild Asparagus

Crystals for Lucid Dreaming: Albite, Angel Phantom Quartz, Danburite, Herkimer Diamond, Lazulite, Moonstone, Rhodonite, Scolecite

Foods for Lucid Dreaming: Almonds, Bananas, Cherries, Chicken, Kidney Beans, Lamb, Oats/Oatmeal, Pumpkin/Pumpkin Seeds, Rice, Soybeans and Tofu, Sunflower Seeds, Tomatoes, Turkey

Essential Oils for Lucid Dreaming: Lavender, Mugwort, Patchouli, Rose

Other things to achieve Lucid Dreaming:

Keep a dream journal and write in it regularly.

Interpret the meanings behind your dreams after recording them

Avoid caffeine, alcohol, and smoking cigarettes before bed

Keep a regular sleeping schedule

Sleep in complete darkness if possible

Meditate before going to sleep

Openly state before you go to bed “I will lucid dream tonight” and repeat this either out-loud or in your mind as you get ready for bed. When you lay in bed continue focused on that in your mind

Along with that before bed tell yourself, preferably in a mirror if it helps, that you will remember your dreams come morning

Do “reality checks” meaning in your dream check to see if you are dreaming. If you see mirrors, see if you can see the background behind you or if it is misty/blurry. If see a clock look at it, look away, then look back, often in dreams the time will change. This is the same for signs and street signs. You can also before going to bed mark up your hand with ink and in your dream look down and see if it is there still. If its not you know you’re dreaming. Look down at your feet, often in dreams they will seem oddly unfocused. If you see a bookshelf, see if any of the book titles are visible or repeat.

Okay, I know I am dreaming, now what do I do?

Well now you practice. It is rare to immediately be able to control your dreams completely. To gain full control you need to practice. Start small and take baby steps. Try hopping in place in your dream, see if you can make yourself hover for even just a second. Keep at it, try to float in place longer and longer with each jump. In time and with practice and patience you will be able to soar through your dreams one night and it’s easy from there. If you come across a locked door try opening it while saying out loud “this door is unlocked”. Keep at it, because hopefully you will be able to open it soon enough.

Start talking to the ‘characters’ in your dreams. Try to influence their behavior such as suggesting they do something. You can also approach a ‘stranger’ in your dream and see what happens if you state that you two are friends. If they start acting as if they know you and are indeed your friend, you know you have improved your control.

Take notes in your dream journal on these tests. Write down if they failed or succeeded and keep at it. With time you will be able to change things in your dreams with ease.

The Positives of Lucid Dreaming:

You can control your dreams! That is just awesome, you can live out things you can’t do in real life.

Prevent or stop nightmares, when you are lucid dreaming you can just tell whatever is causing you the nightmare to ‘fuck off’ and usually they will. Nightmares can be quickly changed into enjoyable dreams

From my personal experience and experiences of others, after a lucid dream you feel more awake and alive come morning, it’s almost energizing to wake up from

Its calming, I can relieve my stresses from the day and not worry about them in my dreams

You can attempt to solve your real life struggles in your dreams or making plans

Eventually you can work your way to Astral Travel and Dream Walking

Using your dreams for divination

Improve sleep, many people who lucid dream fall asleep faster and deeper than most people leading to them having improved sleep patterns and habits

For artists and story writers, dreams can really inspire you and help you test out your ideas

Deity communication, for those who do worship deities you can communicate or even interact with them in your dreams if you welcome them in.

Spirit and entity communication, just like deities lucid dreamers can interact with entities in their dreams by letting them in. Many lucid dreamers interact with their guides and guardians through dreams as well

Happy Dreaming everyone~
