I love you pre-Autumn. I love you first chilly night after a hot day. I love you first crunchy leaves on the ground while the trees are still green. I love cicadas. I love you crickets. I love you dusk sneaking in earlier for the first time. I love you deep sigh of relief after summer.

It fills me with such pride and joy to announce that my version of Speak Now will be out July 7 (just in time for July 9th, iykyk 😆) I first made Speak Now, completely self-written, between the ages of 18 and 20. The songs that came from this time in my life were marked by their brutal honesty, unfiltered diaristic confessions and wild wistfulness. I love this album because it tells a tale of growing up, flailing, flying and crashing… and living to speak about it. With six extra songs I’ve sprung loose from the vault, I absolutely cannot wait to celebrate Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) with you on July 7th. Pre-order now at http://taylor.lnk.to/SpeakNowTaylorsVersion 💜💜💜

Sneak Preview of The Sisters Grimmoire Vol. II - Make Sure You Lock Up

'Well, let us start at once,' said he. 'Lock your door, and put the key in your pocket.'

- A Lost Paradise (The Lilac Fairy Book)

-----

Intent: To set your household wards when you lock your front door.

Materials:

Your front door key

Ideal Timing: Whenever you cast or refresh your household wards

A witchling once approached me with the following question: "How do household wards know when and when not to let people in?" My answer was simple: "You tell them the difference." This spell is one example of how to do just that. It works best when you are the homeowner, but as long as you call the place home, it should work.

Upon completion of your ritual for setting household protections, whatever that may be, take your house key and go to the front door. Place your dominant hand flat against the inside of the door, with the key between your palm and the door's surface.

Say in a strong clear voice:

This is my home And I hold the key; No one may enter Unless bidden by me.

If you feel the need, you can repeat this on other exterior doors for added security. Upon leaving your home, make sure you lock your doors and windows. The act of locking the front door from the outside with your key sets the wards until you return.

After you lock your front door, place your hand upon it and say, "No one but me." If someone else is to allowed in, include them as well, i.e. "No one but me or my spouse/roommate/parent/child/etc." Again, this will work best for people who actually live in the home, or whom you've given permission to be there in your absence.

Please note that this is not a foolproof method for deterring intruders. Take any and all mundane measures of security needed to ensure the safety of your home and its' occupants.

being an older sibling is like. you've never known a life without me. mom yelled at me and it taught her she never wanted to yell at you. I painted my room purple and grey and then you did too. we live in the same house but I haven't spoken to you in months. I don't know your favorite color. I saw it was going to rain so I picked you up from school on my way home so your books wouldn't get wet. i was so worried when you woke up sick when you were three. you don't remember being sick. mom and dad made their worst mistakes with me and I'm glad they didn't make them with you. I'm doing everything for the first time so you won't be in the dark. I don't know any of your friend's names anymore. I used to know them all. if something happens to mom and dad you won't have to worry because everything will fall to me. you don't like to be home alone but even if you don't see me just knowing I'm there makes you feel better. at least that's what mom told me. you still give me jars to open for you because you can't quite get them. I only see you during dinner. i'd never even think about missing one of your concerts. I stand at the counter when I eat and now you do, too. when offered a selection of books you picked the same one I did when i was your age. I'm terrified you compare yourself to me. I love you. I don't know if you like me. I want you to. mom says dinner's ready

might get cancelled for this but I find it disrespectful when people don't stand up for the national anthem. honestly I think it's beautiful and I get goosebumps every time i hear "salt air and the rust on your door never needed anything more"

Never make the mistake of comparing your entire life to someone else's public facade. You may never see it, but other people are just as flawed, imperfect, human and complex as you. Everyone has made mistakes. Everyone has hurt someone at some point. Everyone has regrets. Everyone has flaws. Everyone has insecurities. Everyone fucks up every once in a while. Everyone has their struggles. Everyone. Even that famous influencer who seems to live the perfect life. If any person looks perfect to you, you're not seeing the full picture.

licherally cannot explain to adults these days that im actually so cool with the idea of being "just an employee" somewhere as long as i am paid enough to live comfortably and i also like the job. "but dont you want to be rich?? dont you want to always be striving for more???" like that sounds EXHAUSTING and i like having friends so

if you look for love you will see it everywhere

A mother resting her chin on the helmet of her toddler sitting in front of her on her bike.

People rushing to collect fallen groceries for the slightly embarrassed person who dropped them.

A gangly teenager asking a man if he is okay after tripping over a pavement tile.

A child squatting down and gentle patting a scruffy little dog.

Co-workers agreeing to cover each others' shift when needed.

A couple doing an awkward spin and few steps on the beat of a street musician.

Teenage girls scream-laughing at a bus stop, fully lost in their stories.

Father and children working on a shared project, exchanging tools and soft words.

Worst thing ever in the whole world is when a thunderstorm is forecasted and then it doesn’t storm. literally so rude I was excited for this all day.
