Its fine to be upset about Sephora. But have this same energy when it comes to white witches appropriating cultures.
Yall say support your local etsy witches, but this doesn’t change the fact that alot of these local witches are white and appropriating cultures.
You cant be pissed at sephora, but refuse to call out white, racist etsy shops.
Like lets start calling out racist etsy shops. And by racist i mean those that sell items from closed practices, call themselves ‘g*psy’, sell native American and African traditional things, etc.
If you’re angry at Sephora’s “witch starter kit,” I hope you’re also angry at the cultural appropriation of marginalized practices in witchcraft.
Remember how frustrated you felt when you saw these starter kits when a member of a marginalized tradition says something is cultural appropriation. If you don’t want people to water down and steal your practices, don’t water down or steal other practices.
I don’t believe in astrology but one time when I was in college I was complaining about how dumb astrology was and after a while someone on the train went “Shut the hell up and let people have fun you Capricorn sun, Virgo moon bitch” and I was like what the fuck
Then I went home and looked it up and they were right so I don’t say anything anymore
my girl poured her diva cup out into her plant and now the plant’s alive again her pussy voodoo
I have questions…
this is green consciousness and ecofeminism
Period blood is full of nutrients and can act as a plant fertilizer. Which isn’t much help if you use disposables like pads and tampons, BUT if you use moon cups you can pour them onto your plant OR if you use reusable pads you can soak/rinse them in warm water before you wash them and pour that water onto your plants.
Stop being scared of ya own blood 2k18. Do magic. Revive plants. Curse enemies.
Woah, plant tip of the year!
Wonderful fuckin post
To clarify
Blood contains nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorus. All three of these macronutrients are good for plants.
This is a great alternative to blood meal fertilizers. While blood meal contains large quantities of nitrogen, some gardeners do not agree with its use due to potential animal cruelty nuances. For anyone who feels that this is gross, please understand that organic fertilizer is usually full of poo - this is hardly different than period blood. They’re both great fertilizers that are produced in different ways.
Do you know of any alternatives to a dream catcher? I had no idea that it was a part of someone's culture, I just thought people had them because they were neat.
i was going to have nice links and stuff but i was so depressed, however i didn’t just want to leave this!
so alternatives to dream catchers!
witches ladders. they are knot magic with added trinkets, usually feathers! while braiding or knotting just think of the intention of what you want out of it. an added bonus is the fact you can add things you associate with a goods nights sleep, or gems that offer magical properties of sleeping well, good dreams, nightmare reflection ect.
my favorite is satchels that can be made cheaply, filled with herbs and stones of your choice. when completed, put the satchel under a pillow or your bed!
similar to satchels are poppets, or a teddy bear works great for this if you have sewign skills. if you can make a small incision on the bottom of the bear (or stuffed animal/poppet) and while thinking on your intent put charged herbs and gems inside. then just close them right up adn sleep with the bear with you or near you.
if you like the looks of dream catchers to aid in helping you get better dreams i would suggest wreathes, you can add what ever decorations that match your aesthetic and practice, and it won’t be appropriation because its not from a closed religion
and this is a good sight that talks about a few stones that work well

Oooh, I like this post. This is a Good Post.
I actually (shamefully) have a dream catcher that I’m only holding onto because I like the look of it (and because it was a gift from my older sister, who I love dearly).
I’ve wanted to take it down, because appropriation is Not Okay, but I wanted to put something in its place and didn’t know what. And now I know what.
I’m going to make myself a nice alternative and retire the dream catcher to storage (because I can’t bear to completely part with it, because treasured gift). So glad I found this post!
Hey ok speaking as someone who has grown up in Cree culture and has spoken to elders about this- dream catchers are 100% ok for non-natives to use. They sell them to non-natives for the very reason they are ok with it and it’s not appropriation. That said you should aim to buy actual native made ones, not mass produced Chinese ones, but according to every elder I have asked, dream catchers are ok. Also re non natives making dream catchers for personal use- I have been told by elders this is fine. I was taught directly by elders myself who showed me how to cut willow and weave the sinew. I was teased by the younger natives for going to the work of doing it the hard traditional way when I could buy a hoop. Things like eagle feathers which are sacred obviously are a huge no, but dream catchers themselves are frequently given to outsiders and not considered by natives themselves to be part of a closed religion. I appreciate what you are trying to do here, but it’s probably better to let actual natives speak instead of talking over them about what is and isn’t appropriation to them. My family is a whole mix of cultures thanks to adoptions and even though I’m not Cree, half my family is, so it kind of bugs me seeing non natives making judgements without actually consulting anyone.
Oh, that’s a neat perspective! I’m glad you replied! Thank you. :3
(I still plan to retire this particular dream catcher to storage because I’m almost positive it’s one of the cheapo Chinese sweatshop ones…)
Hey!! A cree/Mi'kmaq gal here as well, dream catchers are 100% okay!! Again, just get them from native sources, even if that happens to be online- if they’re from a native source no sacred items that could be seen as cultural appropriation in the hands of a non-native will be included usually. The one thing about dream catchers is that you should! Not! Get them tattooed. As dream catchers are supposed to absorb negative energy and nightmares it is basically like cursing yourself, and that is never fun!
You can also make a dream-net/curtain. I’m not sure what the ‘origin’ of it is, but my grandma made them for new babies!
I asked a native neighbor about this a while back and he said the same thing: dream catchers are okay for non-native people to use BUT you should buy them from natives. Not the knockoffs you find from non-natives. Those people who sell the knockoffs are trying to make a profit off of native people’s culture, and that’s extremely uncool. He also said they’re not going to work, anyway…so just don’t buy them off of non-natives.
100% agree. Dream catchers are okay, guys! Again, just get them from those who are actually Native as much as possible, because it helps them make a living and continue on their traditions!
Here are some Native-run businesses:
AuthenticNativeMade (Moccasins) mlprintup (Jewelry) Duckletshut (Beaded Jewelry & Dreamcatchers)
FaithEarthandSoul (Jewelry, Art, & Dreamcatchers)
WildeElementJewelry (Jewelry)
ElusiveWolf (Jewelry & Pipes)
NativeMoonRising (Clothing & Dreamcatchers)

We gotta talk about how cis allies are handling the TE/RF infestation in the witchblr community
I know all of you want to help. And some of you are definitely showing some great allyship by making it clear where you stand on these issues.
This post isn’t to make you feel bad or minimize your efforts, but I feel like some people aren’t aware of certain things. This is just to help improve your allyship even more!
Saying things like “I support witches who are men, women, and trans” are subtly implying that trans men and women’s gender is different from cis men and women. Instead, trying saying “I support cis/trans men and women in witchcraft” or “I support cis men and trans witches” or something to that effect.
I’ve noticed there are a lot of post about supporting male witches. Which is a good thing! However, I haven’t seen as many posts on supporting trans witches, especially trans women witches. When TERFs say men, that’s often their code for trans women because TERFs don’t recognize their gender.
If you’re going to show your support for cis male witches, make sure you show support for trans women witches, as trans women are at a much higher risk for being attacked and harmed by TERFs than cis men are.
Stop baiting the TERFs if you’re cis. Sure, you might end up getting yelled at by one of them, but they’ll likely take most of their anger out on trans people, especially trans women, instead. Take that anger and convert that energy into supporting and uplifting the voices of trans witches.
Purposefully baiting TERFs just gives them more of a platform where they can spout their hate and find more people like themselves. If you see a TERF, block them. They can’t be reasoned with and you inboxing them won’t suddenly stop them from being a bigot.
This isn’t to say that we should ignore the TERF issue. We should make it abundantly clear that their ideology is toxic and narrow-minded and unwelcome in the community. But we can do this without putting trans witches in more danger and without giving TERFs more of a platform.
Tldr: Spend less time posturing about how much you hate TERFs and spend more time making the community feel open, welcoming, and supportive to trans witches.
Another way to help is to reduce gender focused language. Phrases like ‘masculine’ and ‘feminine’ energy, assigning abstract things like colors and herbs ‘male or female’ traits and promoting binary male/female roles and powers just promotes a binary that excludes nonbinary witches and reinforces a toxic framework that is all too often used against trans people.

Friday Pick a Card
It’s back! It’s Friday!
Take a breath, think about the vast amount of space that is created inside of yourself when you allow yourself to fully and deeply inhale. Consider how you can be a good caregiver to that space this coming weekend. And when you’re ready, pick a card:
Feel free to comment/reblog with your choice for easy remembering and then come back later this evening to see your cards and their messages revealed!
What I really do as a witch, is different from what you really do as a witch.
And thats okay.
ask your doctor if the moon is causing all this
between now and the next eclipse, august 11th, we can expect to experience some crazy vivid dreams. pay attention to these dreams, they have the potential to be highly predictive! our subconscious is revealing secrets and showing us our hidden desires. take note of the symbols and people appearing in your dreams.
eeeeek, excitement (●´ω`●) thank you for sharing!
I’ve been having extremely vivid dreams of a super positive pregnancy test after trying for the past 9 months. Please please please 🤞
