Just your friendly neighborhood witch... mentally living in a Studio Ghibli movie🍄 Ask me anything! 20, she/they

[wizardpostsdotorg]

people don’t realize how serious the white sage thing is. i worked at a native owned weed store where we also gave out free sage sometimes for medicine and they couldn’t get any more for the store, which was supplied directly from the nearest reservation. corporate-sold witch supplies is literally taking straight out of the hands of indigenous people and their medicine which -now trendy- was previously highly illegal.

[brujarojaderio]

On top of avoiding participating in exploitative and destructive systems, by avoiding white sage you can instead choose to interact with local cleansing smokes.

How much more connected to the earth and the beings in your community would you be if you used a native herb or wood?

Experiment with local sages that are not threatened. Try juniper, or cedar, or mugwort! Rosemary is lovely too!

Did you know that you can dry and burn rose petals for a lovely fragrance? How much more meaningful would it be to use the rose bushes that guard your yard than a plant from thousands of miles away?

I burn Yauhtli, also known as Mexican Tarragon, which I grow in my garden for its lovely scent. It's easy to cultivate and has traditionally been used to venerate Tlaloc. I found this out when researching what plants I had access to that I might be able to use instead of buying appropriated practices. I surely have benefited and deepened my practice from learning this.

Consider that you not only injure yourself morally by engaging in appropriation, but you also deprive yourself by failing to look around you and root your practice in the natural community you live in.

[i-hate-chick-fil-a]

I mad agree with this.

This reminds me, if y'all haven’t heard of therapyforblackgirls.com please visit if you need a therapist. You can search by mental health need, location/distance, insurance, etc. I believe there are some that provide a sliding scale payment method for those without insurance.

If you’re not quite ready to make the jump, there is a podcast you can listen to as well as articles and links to help answer some of your questions about mental health and/or therapy.

The purpose, as I understand it, is to provide a place where black women can go to find culturally sensitive therapy. Some specialize in family/couples as well.

Take a look.

[imfemalewarrior]

For any black Women following me! 

Taking care of your mental health is another important factor in your overall health. Fighting for good mental health is a fight worth doing, and is just as difficult, if not moreso, than physical fighting.

Especially with everything going on right now. We constantly hear how strong we are and it’s like no we can be tired, emotional, stressed too and we need to take care of our mental health. Here are some free therapy sessions that I’ve seen going around. Please share

1. Main representative feature of this entity. Who they first appear to be. 2-4. Things this entity is associated with – animals, colours, symbols. You can draw as many cards as you like for this as well. Although I find 3 to be a good number. 5. What this entity has power over. 6-7. Two main personality traits. 8. How they manifest in your life. (What you need to pay attention to.) 9. What they want from you.

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

[blackbearmagic]

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!

[fuzzyfishesandscaleymice-deacti]

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.

[blackbearmagic]

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…)

[greeniewitchering]

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!

[thehoneybeewitch]

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! 

[phoenyxoftheashes]

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.

[serapphire]

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)

[thatwaterwitch]

I love this post! I have a lot of Native friends (mostly Navaho because of where I live) and they say the same thing. It's one of my self rules to never buy anything from a culture unless it ACTUALLY BENEFITS someone from that culture. Buying authentic, Native made dream catchers is a great way to support your local Native American communities.
