The first and most important Law, upon which all other Laws are built, is “The All is Mind, the Universe is Mental.” Without this first Law, none of the other aspects of these teachings are possible since the first Law is the master key to unlocking the power of our minds and to using them to shape our reality. The first Law goes hand in hand with the second Law which states, “As Above, So Below,” which means there are planes of existence occupying the same space and time that overlap one another. Consciously managing your life from the higher planes allows you to control and rule the lower planes.

Learned how to extract pigments from leaves and flowers and various other things. As well as learning how to make essential oils in biology lab today. Science and magick go hand in hand.
TELL US HOW
Using isopropyl alcohol or ethanol put it in a heat safe container about 50-100 mL depending on how much pigment you want and how concentrated you want it to be. Once it starts to boil add your leaves or plants of any kind. I was told even pumpkin would work!
Then boil for about 10 minutes or longer til you get the color you want or til the color in the plant is gone/heavily faded. Make sure to not let the ethanol/alcohol burn dry.
That’s for pigments.
For essential oil he said fill a container with that much olive oil (more like 50ml for that one since it won’t burn dry) and boil your plants in it for about 5 minutes and then let the plant sit in the oil for 48 hours and then strain using like a cheesecloth or something so you don’t get any plant particles.
This is neat! I definitely want to try the pigments! The essential oil process your talking about is actually for making herbal infused oils, which is different than essential oils. Herbal Infused Oils are fatty oils like olive oil, coconut oil, vegetable oil, etc. which, once infused with herbs, are generally safe for your skin. You can use them to make salves and creams and candles, using wax and a double boiler. There’s a couple ways to make herbal infused oils, all of which can be done at home and are really fun! Though some of them require more precautions than others.
Essential oils, on the other hand, are made using steam distillation, where the plant is boiled and the steam is what’s collected/separated to use. You’ll usually need a special apparatus for steam distillation, it’s a little more difficult. Essential oils are highly concentrated and not safe for skin, but they evaporate easily and are very fragrant so they’re usually used for aromatherapy.
Fuck yes
I am glad @herbwicc corrected the post and educated about teh difference between essential oils and infused oils.
I seel lots of young witches who think they ahve their hands on eos when they do not.
Feminine Greek Names
Having been recently inspired by Patty Jenkins’ Wonder Woman (which I’m more than happy to gush over with anyone, just pm me, lmfao), I’ve decided to create a masterlist of feminine Greek names, alongside their meanings. There are sixty-two in total; please, enjoy!

hades isn’t a badass. hades named his three-headed-guard-of-the-underworld-dog spot. hades whispers to his flowers to make them grow. hades grows fruit. there’s no sun in the underworld.
hades isn’t a badass. stop saying this false thing
#hades probably double knots his laces
In myth, Hades’ most remarked upon traits are 1) how responsible/reliable he is, 2)how sober-minded he is, 3)how dedicated, implacable, and long-remembering he is, and 4)how boring and grim most of the other Olympians think he is to be around. Oh and notably, that if you play him a song he likes, he’ll basically give you anything you ask for(though not without conditions).
Hades is, canonically, a gigantic nerd. If they’d had trainsets, he’d have been the Olympian who collected trainsets, meticulously corrected with exacto knife and hobby-paints the errors toy-makers introduced to those trainsets, and then endlessly talked about those trainsets to anyone sat next to him at Thanksgiving Dinner :| When he wasn’t trying to rope them into an interminable discussion about gardening or divine law, that is :| :| He’s the sort of god who frequently handed out punishment like giving someone a million-piece puzzle where every piece is shaped the same, that resets itself at the start of every day if you don’t complete it, and then he keeps the last piece on his person at all times as a secret private joke for eternity because he finds you personally distasteful(not even because he’s mad at you or hates you particularly; he just doesn’t like you as a person) :| :| :| He is. A Gigantic. Nerd.
He’s also like one of the only gods who is faithful to his wife. And he listens to her like when she asks for a soul to be released and he’s like “But honey, the rules.” And she just gives him that look and he goes “Yes dear,” and lets the soul go with the easiest freaking instructions ever in a myth. And the human still fucks it up. Not his fault Persephone, not Hades’ fault this time. Essentially, Hades is sorta like the accountant suburban dad who collects really specific figurines and gets really grumpy when people mess up his lawn. Do you know how hard his wife worked on those roses? He is calling his attorney. Oh wait, he is also an attorney.

Everybody knows it’s Persephone that you’ve got to watch out for.
I love this post every time I see it.
useless ancient roman law facts
if you call someone to witness and they refused to show up, you are legally entitled to stand outside their house and scream, but only every third day
you can sell your son into slavery once or twice, but after the third time he doesn’t have to put up with that shit anymore
no wailing allowed at funerals
also you can only have ONE funeral per person, don’t get greedy
if your neighbor’s tree has a branch hanging into your yard, you can legally cut down the entire fucking tree
however, if some of your neighbor’s fruit from his dumb tree falls into your yard, he can legally come into your yard to snoop around get it
if you call someone to witness and they’re too sick or old to get to court themselves, you have to provide a cart for them to come in, but it doesn’t have to be, like, a nice cart if you don’t want it to
#…if these are actually true im gonna scream (via @dragonchantant)
they are indeed real! they’re from the twelve tables, a roman law text so old that it’s hard for even people who are well-versed in latin to read by the text is archaic (also half of it is missing but whatever)
while we’re on the subject, here are some more good ones that i forgot to put in:
the penalty for writing a song slandering someone (it’s very specific on the song bit) is getting clubbed to death
if you hurt someone (or if you just sort of inconvenience them) through magic arts, the penalty for that is also death
however if you maim someone’s limb through normal limb-maiming processes you just sort of have to figure things out between yourselves
if there’s a road right next to your property, feel free to build a fence around it to prevent people from driving into it, but if you don’t build your own fence then tough shit
if you waste all your money you can legally be prevented from wasting even more of your money
if you’re a woman and you live with a man for a year, that technically makes you married, unless you spend three successive nights at somewhere other than his house, in which case you’re not married i guess

All-Knowing of Mind Flayer & Co.
CONTEXT: So I was playing a Tabaxi in our campaign and a thing that comes with that is… They’re “cursed” with curiosity, just like regular cats. You can about imagine the types of shit I got myself into and the DM loved it because it meant that more stupid things happened to the group. The best moment, though, was this…
DM: Congratulations, you’ve successfully defeated the Elder Brain, what would you like to d–
Me, hand in the air: CAN I LICK THE ELDER BRAIN?
My group, simultaneously: NO!
DM: … Sure, why not. You give the deceased Elder Brain a big lick and now know all of Mind Flayer and Co.
Me: And they say stupidity gets you nowhere
I later found out she was expecting me just to poke it, not full on lick it.

Safety and protection with fae
I personally love the fae, but I know many people would rather stay far away (and of course it’s very important to know safety guidelines whether you do or not!) so here’s some information I’ve collected.
From many different sources:
Never use your real name when interacting with fae, or they can take control over you
Always be polite and respectful and do your best not to offend. Remember, better safe than sorry
As a general rule, don’t eat food when visiting the fae realm. This will make you a captive, unable to leave, and often the food isn’t as wonderful as it may seem, and only glamoured rocks, mud and sticks. (It’s said faeries will take offense if you don’t accept food they offer to you in our own world though)
Do not think yourself more clever than them or try to swindle them; you will end up in very hot water
You may not want to accept faerie money.. as again, it is often glamoured and will turn back into leaves and acorns soon after
Do not blindly intrude were you are not wanted (fairy rings, sacred faerie places, etc) Always ask first and respect their answer!
Should you find you’ve wandered into a place where you feel strong malevolent energy or evil presence and experience “faerie terror”, back away slowly, don’t run or you might get lost. Send out your good will, and if you can, throw up a bubble/egg ward to protect yourself
Do not to take the fae lightly or seek them half-heartedly. Take care not to act as if they were weak, harmless or lenient. It is very foolish to underestimate them. Faeries are not strictly good or evil (neither are humans), and respect and caution are always best
Salt and iron (tools made from iron, a nail in your pocket) are traditional faerie deterrents
Three leaf clovers can be carried as a protective charm, and four leaf ones can break through faerie magic or allow you to see hidden fae (note some traditions say you should have multiple clovers as each will only work once)
Wearing St. John’s Wort will give you strong protection from faerie magic
As will wearing a daisy
Carrying a rowan twig, or hanging one over your door, that was collected on Betaine may bring protection
Flipping your clothes inside out can prevent faerie mischief by its unexpectedness
Visualisation wards can be effective
Scatter primrose petals outside your door to keep faeries at bay by creating a barrier
If you hear bluebells chime it is a warning that danger or faerie enchantments are near
Putting a daisy chain on a child is said to protect them from being taken as a changeling
Forget me nots can be used for faerie protection
If you’re friendly with any other faeries, you may ask them for protection against ill-willed fae
Faeries will avoid gardens with tomato plants
Make a bundle of twigs from the trees of the faerie triad, oak ash and thorn, and carry it for protection (it will only work if they’re bound together, if separate, they are an invitation to the fae)
One traditional faerie protection is placing mirrors throughout your home
Cats may chase away faeries
The sound of heavy iron bells and chimes may drive them away
Leaving out gifts of honey and milk can appease the fae if you wish them to leave you alone
