I didn’t know cheetahs meow I’ve always thought they roar my whole life has been a lie

[anarchapella]

Ok but the other one is purring so hard

[valgalart]

If I ever don’t reblog this assume I’m dead

[excessively-english-jd]

Fun fact: technically, because of its inability to roar and its ability to purr, the cheetah is not a ‘big cat’ (or Great Cat) - they are still classified as Lesser Cats.

Also you haven’t heard anything until you hear them cheep.

YOU CANNOT JUST SAY THAT AND NOT PROVIDE A VIDEO

I HAVE REALISED MY MISTAKE AND SHALL RECTIFY IT:

Cheeps.

The Do’s And Do Not’s of Worship

Okay, boys and girls.

I’ve been getting a lot of asks that are pertaining to essentially the same thing, so I’m going to try to answer most of your questions here in this single post.

A lot of you are asking me:

What are some things I should do for (fill in the deity)?

What are some of the things that I should avoid when I (fill in a certain thing here)?

What are some things that (specific God or goddess) will like?

To kind of provide a blanket-answer to these questions, let me first explain my beliefs on the subjects.

DO:

Conduct research on the specific deities that you’re trying to connect with. (For example, if you’re trying to connect with Skadi, you’ll find she’s the goddess of the hunt and snow, so she may like things that are pertaining to that.)

Once you’ve done your research, follow your instinct. (If you see something that reminds you of a specific deity, boom! Add it to your altar, make it into a necklace, whatever you want to do.)

Make your practice YOUR practice. (No two people are going to worship their gods in the same way.)

DO NOT:

Let other people tell you how to worship your gods.

Feel like you have to spend a ton of money on your altar or on your offerings.

Feel bad because you feel your offerings are inadequate or “not enough”.(Magic and offerings are all about intent.)

Going along with this theme, there are many people who disagree with this sort of thinking. Some people believe that there are certain ways that you should worship and things that you should avoid.

Remember: That is THEIR practice and YOURS can be completely different.

Again, this is just the way that I see things. I believe that since this religion is so ancient, there’s really no concrete way of knowing how to worship these deities. Nor should there be any right or wrong way.

Just do you, do what feels right, do what connects you to your gods, and don’t worry about the rest.

Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

The Hoodoo Masterpost

Given how hard it is to find reliable hoodoo/rootwork/conjure resources on Tumblr, I’ve created this compilation of as many posts, spells, tutorials, and informative posts as I can find! The vast majority of them were written by Africana, Afro-Latinx, or Latinx witches, rootworkers, and hoodoo witches.

All credit goes to the original authors of each post and resource. Please message me if you want something added/removed for any reason!

this dosh money making thing is bs. im calling it now, stop trying to scam your followers for money im sick of it

If it’s really all bullshit then explain this screenshot. I’ve had the app for under a month and i’ve already brought in all this cash.

For those of you who don’t know, dosh is an app where you can get cashback at so many stores by linking your card (it does NOT charge you anything, i’ve had it for a month already and did all my research its so safe).

I get a lot of my cash this way, but you also get money by referring friends (rn it’s $8/referral but its usually $5). once they link their card you they money, and if they feel unsafe/don’t want the app after trying it, they can just unlink it after.

Idk why you’re getting so mad because I’m trying to help you out. just take a look at this, i’ve already deposited it into my paypal (u can also deposit it straight into ur bank account). no fees. if this doesn’t convince u, i don’t know what will tbh. try it out here

[less]

dude whut. how

[curvier]

this is not a joke.

i just did this. referred 4 friends and now i have 32 bucks…

literlly

free

money. fuck the haters

[egyptjones]

Spent 90 bucks shopping USING LINKS ON THE ACTUAL APP and I got nothing. Complained, no response. Complained again, my account needed to be shut down for some reason. This app works for some but screws over others
