I just took this bit of video yesterday but even to me it looks like the beginning of an animation about two goose friends who paddled out together one morning to explore the world.

@thebibliosphere I feel like you’d enjoy incorporating this into a vampire’s sleeping arrangements.
To heck with that, *I* want to take a nap in it.
We stand by you. We love you. We will never stop fighting for you. 🌟🔮❤️
Sooo… the reason that we spell magic that way is because of Aleister Crowley… a /very/ racist person whom I don’t think we should be emulating….espeically now…especially in support of the BLM movement…. here’s a post about why I, and lots others choose not to spell it that way. There’s no reason to. everyone knows you’re not talking about stage magic… differentiating is not a good reason to keep using this spelling. I know not everyone knows this, so this is a gentle nudge for us all to read up more about why we do the things we do. This is what we mean when we say surface knowledge that comes from witchy 101 books, or outdated books written by racists vs. knowing the reasons for /why/ these traditions started in the first place. Know the origin of what you want to practice before you do it! This goes for everything from little stuff like this to larger stuff like the birth of Wicca and why we are Neopagans…not Pagans. Anywho… i’m off on a tangent… if you’re going to support bipoc…maybe don’t spell magic it that way.
Also… why is there no artist’s credit other than their signature? Online art sharing 101, If you cannot share from the artist directly (like across platforms) always give credit to their Name (or handle,) as well as a link to however they make money. for example patreon, or their website etc.
To take traffic that could’ve been directed at the creator and aim it at yourself is basically theft in a world where online traffic can dictate your income.
I’m still seeing “magick” used to support blm and bipoc… it’s not a good look.

Cleansing your space: A How-To Guide
Since there has been some confusion over what is appropriate to use when cleansing one’s space, I thought I’d make a little post on my favorite methods from my own Grimoire.
1. Salt.
Simply sprinkle salt (a small grain type) on the carpet. After about an hour, vacuum. Salt crystals have an amazing natural built in-ability to absorb negative energy. As an alternative, you can put bowls of salt in the corners of the room and remove them after a few hours. *this works for people too. Instead of sprinkling yourself with salt, take a bath with 2 cups of sea salt in it. It’s grounding and clearing all at the same time.
2. Room spray
Buying or making a room spray with pure essential oils helps clear negative energy. The best ones to use for clearing are rose, lavender, frankincense, and patchouli. *this works for people too. Gently mist yourself with the spray!
3. High-Frequency Music
Playing high vibration music can make a big difference. We already know what a difference music can make in our own energy, and it does the same for spaces. Any music that makes you feel good will work!
4. Black Tourmaline
This is my favorite crystal for clearing negative energy. I have several of them around my house. This crystal does not need to be cleared as others do.
*this works for people too. I often put it in my pocket or purse while traveling. It’s great for sensitive people who seem to pick up on the energy around them and need some extra protection.
5. Burn White Sage
You can buy white sage sticks in many places, including online. Burning this while you walk around your house with it (swirling it in a counterclockwise rotation) is really great for clearing bad energy.
I usually say something as I do it like “I’m clearing all stagnant energy from this space and allowing only that of the highest vibration to remain.” *this works for people too. Start at your feet swirling the smoke from the sage around you until you get all the way up to your head.
6. Incense
Burn sandalwood incense or dried sage to disintegrate the negative energy in each room. Wave it counterclockwise in each corner, closet, and cabinet. You may also let one stick burn in each room. Say, “Thank you for the complete disintegration of all negative energies, thoughts, and emotions from this room now.”
7. Candles
Light a candle to dedicate energy to your endeavors. Say your wish out loud. For example, “I am so grateful for all the love, harmony, and healthy energy pouring into my home right now.”
8. Bells
While Tibetan bells have additionally sacred symbolism to them, the ring of any bell will brighten up your space with positive energy. As the sound vibrations disperse blocked energy, the sweet chimes work to uplift the fresh energy leftover. Ring your bell throughout your space, working the vibrations into those overlooking areas.
9. Essential Oils
Diffusing essential oils is a great way to clear negative energy from your home or office space, and as the oils stay in the air for hours afterward, you continue to experience their therapeutic properties.
With the right essential oils, a diffuser can also set a positive, safe space and reduce the accumulation of negative energy in the first place.
10. Purification Salts.
Same principle with the sea salt, only with added herbs for extra oomph. I like Hyssop, Argomony, Rosemary, Lemon Balm, and Lavender. Grind together with Sea salt and Epsom salt and you have a powerful purification salt. Great for ritual baths as well!
Find what works for you, Witchcraft is not one size fits all, and there is a myriad of techniques and practices that you can adopt without appropriating. A little research and a lot of reading go a long way. I hope that this was at least marginally helpful.
happy rat year!
