#autistic witch

[witchothebogfolk]

I remember and reclaim what I buried to make others comfortable.

My joy, whimsy, enthusiasm, and passion.

My tears and rage.

My magic, my witchcraft, my strength.

Looking for more Luciferians and I realized Lord Lucifer is collecting neurodivergent kids like pokemon cards.

To all my pop culture witches, IRL magical girls, hero kintypes and more I've seen a lot of people talk about fighting evil and I wanted to bring up community work as a form of craft! Im majoring in disability studies and getting back into my spirituality. I look up to princess Twilight as the Princess of Friendship because she inspires me to fight for empathy and total inclusion of adults with disabilities. Ive been writing little rituals and spells to motivate me while I study and work. I also have her on as a desktop pony so she can tell me affirmations while I work!

I encourage you to find a related topic that YOUR idol or kintype would fight for, and research what you can do in that area! Always be careful not to fall into voluntourism and remember that EVERYONE can hold negative biases about other groups of people so keep reflecting.

Witches!

Everyone uses spell jars a lot, but we always run out, and they cost money. Well, I have a new solution.

In forensics, a paper bindle is used to hold trace evidence. It can be anything from hair to cloth with blood or even gunpowder.

Here’s how you make one:

-get a piece of paper and fold it in thirds

-unfold it, then fold it in thirds in the other direction

-again, unfold. You can place any larger objects in the center square at this step.

-fold in the left and right sides, then fold up the bottom flap

-at this point you have a pouch. You can add your smaller objects and powders now.

-fold down both corners of the top flap to make a triangle.

-tuck the top flap into the top section of the flap. You can tape the bindle shut at this stage, but it’s not necessary.

I’ve used this so far for a protection spell. The garlic powder didn’t fall out, even with shaking. In addition, you can use paper colors to match intention, and it’s easy to draw sigils and runes at any stage. It’s also: ✨biodegradable✨. So if your spell works better buried, you won’t be harming the environment.

If you try this, let me know how it works! Also, if you have questions about the folding, feel free to send me an ask. I’m not sure how well I explained it, but I tried.

Rest is Worship.

With my full chest as I lay here in pain reflecting on the fact that i can’t commit the time and energy to spellwork, sigils, runology, deity work etc, rest is in fact worship.

Even if I can just manage lighting my altar candle and letting them know I’m here, but I’m tired today, it’s enough. I’m offering what I have and in turn by framing it this way I’m able to commit to rest as an act of worship, in a world that tells me it’s immoral, my gods & spirits tell me it’s a natural part of living; someone who has a lot of energy out put will always need longer to restore it.

Taking the time to ritualise that real restorative rest even if it’s simple, even if it’s just ritualised thought. It helps my brain - that tells me when there’s pain to move more, when I’m unwell to actively push past it, when I’m tired to ignore it and keep adding to my pile -to slow down.

This is practical magic really, it means I recover quicker than I would otherwise and I’m able to let go of that desire for perfection- it doesn’t exist in nature. My gods wouldn’t expect anything unnatural from me, just more is natural to me than some and similarly there’s lots of things presumed ‘normal’ that feel are complete myth- unattainable, impossible.

I don’t know man.

I’m queer(NB), AuDHD and identify as a witch I know none of this is original, someone’s thought this before.

-if this reads like disjointed asf be nice im dyslexic im trying not to give into the crippling internalised ableism and just type-post and not proof read 300 times and ultimately delete 😬

Low Spoons Witchcraft!

In my case, my spoons are limited because of audhd, but the reasons may be maaaaany more - and I believe that limited mental energy is not that rare of an issue.

This causes quite a few issues, but speaking about witchcraft it sometimes stops us from doing longer and more complex rituals. What do we do then? LOW SPOONS WITCHCRAFT!

There are plenty of things that we can do, plenty of low spoons friendly witch practices: I made a collection of 10+ that you can find on my Patreon BUT FOR FREE! You don't need to pay anything to access it!

I hope it can be helpful, but also if you have some more suggestions that you want to share feel free to add to this post!

One thing I wish I could talk about more, but don't even know HOW to, is being autistic -- I was able to mask and function better when I was younger, but as I've aged, I'm able to mask less, handle less, function less. Like, I feel more like a child now than I did as a child.

And that really messes with my head; I think mostly because of society and how much society hates autistic people. I know that society thinks we should just "grow up" and "get over it". I know it comes from a place of ignorance, sometimes just pure hate, etc.

It's scary. I try to hide I'm autistic as much as possible. I TRY to blend in. I know I can't handle the hate if it got directed at me. Just seeing it get directed at others online for the same stuff I struggle with can be hard.

I want to be able to potentially be a content creator of SOME flavor bc I feel that's one of the only ways I'll be able to make money but being aware of the fact I'll probably get lots of abuse is scary and does hold me back.
