If your family doesn’t accept you for who you are, I’m your mom now.

Drink some water, take your meds, get some sleep, and don’t forget to eat. I love you.

Collecting wild witchy ingredients — safety!🌿🚨

I’ve seen a lot of posts about collecting winter ingredients for spell jars and other things. I wanted to make a post about using equipment when collecting nature.

Use gloves! Although leaves and acorns might seem innocent enough, there are other things that can be lurking under them and you should always be careful.

Use packaging equipment like jam jars! Don’t stuff them in your bag! This is bad not only for you bag, but disrespects the green and the energy.

Look at what you’re using! Because it is out in nature, there are things that could be burrowed in the collected items. For example, a worm in an acorn. Or some eggs under a fallen leaf. We don’t want to hurt any living thing when using natural ingredients.

Try not to be loud. This is a very important witchy Tip! Unless you’re in a feild for playing, you should respect the quiet atmosphere. You don’t want to emit any negative energy or have any negative energy emitted toward you.

I’m sure there are a lot more, but I think these are some very important ones that I think everyone should follow. If you have some more please comment them!

Devotional Series: Introduction

Periodically, I do a comparative study between Wicca & Neopaganism and other world religions. If you follow this blog, then you know that I did a 7 Deadly Sins comparison, but stopped at Lust. You might not know that I stopped out of sheer fear of the blow back from any followers and random anons; my anxiety could absolutely not handle it. I am now to a point in my thirties, where I have completely run out of fucks for the inconsequential. I have been going through low-dose chemotherapy since I received my Systemic Lupus Erythematosus diagnosis in March. If you would like to read about that, go here. In March, I was at the beginning stages of kidney failure, and thanks to the chemo, my kidneys are kidneying again. However, I'm still really tired and worn out all the time.

In that time, I’ve wrestled with divinity, faith, and crippling depression. I have felt this way since August, and then I received a knock on the door from a particular deity. I will not be going into detail about whom because that is intensely personal to me. Suffice to say, they flipped by view of Divinity on its head, and I felt called upon to rekindle my old comparative blogs as a way to show my devotion. This series will be using Christian devotionals as a prompt for a pagan devotional. Of course, I will not be citing the Bible, but I will be talking of the morals and feelings about the Gods and me.

The first post will be released within a few hours.

Ways to get Closer to Your Craft

Open your curtains in the morning and look outside

Always try to stay grounded. Observe life around you

Make a list of the correspondences of certain soaps or other products that you have. Use a product with intent

Draw sigils

Chant in your head

Walk, sit, or lie down outside. Watch the plants dance in the wind and listen to your surroundings

Carry crystals or objects that mean a certain thing to you

Take time for yourself

Smile at strangers and visualize sending positive energy their way

Listen to music that represents your intent

Pick your outfits using colour magic

Light a candle

Do something for your community. By putting good things out, the universe will repay you

Try interpreting a tarot card for each day

Be creative. Find the magic in every day objects

Practice energy work

Meditate

Schedule days to go to the library and research plants, herbs, your religion, etc

Say thank you more often. Even when no one is there

Try to grow some plants

Have tea more often

Go outside!! I cannot stress this enough. Connect to nature. Go barefoot. Dance in the rain. Anything. Just go out

When hiking pick up things that call to you

Pick up trash. Give back to the planet

Take care and time for yourself

Be patient

Remember, its your craft. Do what feels right 🌱

Made an anti anxiety charm, here’s the page in my grimoire for it!

The original method is from this post http://teeny-tiny-witch.tumblr.com/post/171401918380/from-simple-love-spells-to-glamours-and-hexes-wax by @teeny-tiny-witch

[perse-phoneee-deactivated202007]

Mental Illness Isn’t Magical

I’m sick of this trend in the witchblr and general magical communities. The trend I’m speaking about is the romanticization of mental illness or claiming that mental illness is “really just something spiritual.”

Examples of this include arguing that schizophrenia is really just having the ability to speak to spirits, that having DID just means you’re possessed, that having depression means you have a curse on you, that medication dulls magical ability, or that dissociation is really just astral travel.

Mental illness isn’t magic. Mental illness is the result of chemical imbalances in the brain and trauma. Mentally ill people can practice magic, but their mental illness isn’t what makes them magical; magic comes from within.

Arguing that mental illness is magical has dangerous effects. First, a mentally ill person could see these posts and decide that they don’t need to see professional help even though their symptoms harm them because they don’t want to lose their “magic.” Secondly, for people who are aware that mental illness isn’t magical, we feel hurt that people can look at our experiences and try to trivialize or romanticize them. Thirdly, it convinces neurotypical people that our illnesses “aren’t really that bad.”

So please, stop this dangerous, anti-scientific and ableist trend. It is irresponsible and harmful to mentally ill people.

A Calming Sigil of Your Choice (Such As This One)

One of the biggest problems with religion is that people stubbornly, insistently reduce God to their own size; they imagine that God loves the same people they love, and that God hates the people they hate. This is not just insidious theology; it’s actually idolatry, because people are just worshiping a blown up version of themselves. So let me say it simply: God’s love transcends all of that. When your parents reject you, God loves you; when your friends or classmates make fun of you, God loves you; when your priest, minister, imam, or rabbi tells you that you are an abomination, God loves you; when politicians cater to people’s basest prejudices, God loves you. No matter how many times and in how many ways people make you feel less than human, God knows otherwise, and God loves you. When you feel frightened, or abandoned, or humiliated, I hope the unshakeable conviction that God loves you can help hold you and enable you to persevere.
