new practitioner, still learning (and always will be) ₊˚♬ ﾟ.

this blog serves as my digital altar, and a log of / outlet for my spiritual practices.

i’m very much a beginner (i’ve only been practicing for a couple of years). please be patient with me.

(because i am a beginner, please don’t send asks looking for objective information on any spiritual practice. feel free to send questions about my personal beliefs and experiences, though!)

i don’t really label my spirituality atm (though that may change)

my interests outside of witchcraft include:

music (kendrick lamar, underscores, the weeknd, sza, ethel cain, halsey, marina, hayley williams, paramore, nicole dollanganger, lana del rey, beyonce, lorde, chappell roan, mitski)

hobbies (art, makeup, writing, piano, guitar, podcasts / video essays, collecting things, painting, moodboard making, character creation, editing)

media (legally blonde, mean girls, ddlc, minecraft, needy streamer overload, breaking bad, bojack horseman, heartstrings comic, project sekai)

this is a sideblog, and i’m not comfortable sharing my main. feel free to send a dm asking for my discord if we’re close! i’m completely open to making friends on this side of tumblr!!

i’m autistic + have adhd. i use the word dyke to describe myself often. i’m still figuring out my spiritual beliefs + still learning in general. i’m likely dyslexic. i have ocd, and won’t reblog any guilt tripping or otherwise triggering content.

fuck off

if you support ice or israel, transphobic / queerphobic, racist, conservative / right wing, use slurs you can’t reclaim. i block liberally.
