i was meditating with clear quartz and it suddenly felt heavier than usual ? is that a thing that happens or is it a wierd physical body thing ?

honestly, i have no idea! i will occasionally feel a “heaviness” in tarot cards when im really into a reading, but idk if that’s a weird body thing either?

would any of my followers know?

Maybe this is a dumb question, but what is a witches web/what do you use it for?

Because of its incorporation of crystals, i would use it as another form of crystal grid, where the strings “tie together” the energies of the crystals to make them harmonize!

So i want to celebrate witchy holidays but i don't want to celebrate the wheel of the year. Any ideas for alternatives?

Mostly I just celebrate the solstices. I’m not sure how one could celebrate witchy holidays WITHOUT at least sort of following the wheel of the year, since it mostly just follows the solstices anyway. If you wanted you could just celebrate the solstices without tying them to things like “yule” or “litha”?

 I don’t know of any holidays other than those, without going into specific pagan practices. Maybe my followers would have suggestions?

Hey, hi!! I am an anxious person who spends a lot lot lot of time in my head. I am looking for a crystal to focus on and I am not sure how to choose the right one? I had a chunk of turquoise that was given to me, but I never felt a connection to it. I am not sure how to find the right crystal for myself. Help??

Honestly I don’t use turquoise at all for the same reason!!

For anxiety I usually carry around rose quartz, amethyst, and tiger’s eye, and frequently all at the same time!

Tiger’s eye is not specifically for the anxiety, but rather to focus your energies on something that isn’t your anxious thoughts.

As you said, this all depends on how you connect to your stones as well, and if none of these work, then it would be time to do some deeper research to see if another type of stone is better for you.

Jars of herbs. Stacks of pots. Something baking, the scented air sweeping through the rooms. Your magic is successful. Have a nice day.

how does someone start being a witch?

Essentially, someone starts being a witch when they wake up and think they are a witch! I know there are plenty of people who might disagree with that simplistic of a statement, but essentially that’s it! A person doesn’t usually start doing spells and making potions and then decide they are a witch, after all.

The longer answer is, of course, by studying witchcraft. There are as many different paths as there are people, and you can look in your local bookstore for texts, google is always your friend, and of course there are blogs like mine that you can peruse at your leisure!

Blessings,I have a question about your palmistry post it says that the right hand is for what's to come but the left is for the past and according to my experience it is somewhat true,but I read another article that day it says that the right hand palm reading is for males to practice chiromancy with females you read women's left palm is this true?

Hi!

It’s not my post, I just reblogged it in case others were interested, so I can’t really confirm it’s accuracy first-hand.

I will say, I avoid gendered (male-female) practices at all cost, basically. It’s usually unnecessary, sometimes just plain inaccurate, and adhering to the gender binary is not useful for a large segment of the magical community who do not themselves adhere to the binary, myself included. I imagine avoiding that is what the person who wrote that post is doing as well, or they just have a different experience with palm reading.
