Here’s a quick painting I did last week of Hermione brewing up a potion! :) 

(If you’d like to see a time-lapse video of the process for this, or want to have the Photoshop file to see how I work, they’re up on my Patreon!  ｡.｡:+*)

Them: Oh you don’t want this cat. He’s wild and he bites everyone and he’ll never just sit nicely in your lap. He’s a project cat. 

 Me: That’s okay, I’m a project person. 

 Two weeks later:

He won’t leave.

Tell us your secret oh great kitty whisperer.

[lightlybow]

Step one: let him hide or shy away from you if he wants to. He wouldn’t let me touch him for a couple days after we got back from the shelter. His comfort was more important than me getting to touch him.

Step two: make yourself nonthreatening. In my case this meant being very quiet, bringing food and lying down on the ground within his eyesight as an invitation to investigate.

Step three: watch his body language and don’t do things that make him uncomfortable. Turns out my cat often bit when he was overstimulated so I made sure not to overwhelm him.

Step four: draw lines, but not with brute force. Even though his biting wasn’t meant to hurt, I wanted to make sure he wouldn’t injure anyone in the future. So I decided when he bit me, I’d yelp “ow!” And then withdraw all physical contact for a few minutes, sometimes leaving the room. Now he never bites, but sometimes he puts his teeth on my hand and then thinks better of it.

Step five: provide a good outlet for destructive behaviors. Aka PLAY WITH HIM, SEVERAL TIMES A DAY.

Step six: be patient.

Step seven: get lucky and somehow pick up the best cat in the entire shelter. I don’t know how it happened but he’s a godsend. He’s literally cuddled me out of a panic attack. We both really needed each other.

this is basically it??? for any animal. and human. both of you get to set boundaries for what you’re comfortable with, both of you respect those boundaries, and the goal is not ‘oh i get to pet the kitty’ or ‘oh i made the parrot talk’ but ‘we have a good solid relationship where we understand each other and are both happy’???

[randomslasher]

Okay step seven brought me to tears. Super happy for kitty and OP! And this is FANTASTIC advice!!!

🌙Alternatives to an ouija board🌙

Oujia boards are probably the most iconic symbol of the supernatural in pop culture. As a kid, oujia boards always were fascinating to me. Now there’s just one problem with oujia boards: that is they are so unreliable, it’s practically impossible to tell if you’re talking to a spirit. So, I’ve decided to share the method I use to talk to spirits. I haven’t heard of this anywhere else, but it’s been very reliable for me.

What you’ll need:

-A white candle

-Somewhere you can be alone.

Light the candle in the place you can be alone. Make sure it’s a place where the candle won’t catch anything on fire. It’s also preferred that there isn’t any wind. When you’re all settled, calmly concentrate on the candle. Feel the energy of the room. Clear your mind. Then say:

O spirits of old,

O spirits of new,

I am but a fool.

What means yes?

Thank the spirits. If the candlelight moves in a certain way, such as left or right, that’s a yes answer. Then say:

O spirits of old,

O spirits of new,

I am but a fool.

What means no?

Thank the spirits. If the candlelight moves in a certain way, that’s a no answer. Repeat this process until you have every answer that you need. Then, ask questions like you would on an oujia board. Good luck!

∆Witchy Reminder∆

If you’re finding it difficult to squeeze in time for your craft, always remember that bringing magick into the smallest of things during your day can make a world of difference. Bless that morning cup of coffee, quickly send out a mental affirmation of your goals, even charge the pen, keyboard or tool you’ll be using, and above all, allow yourself to enjoy your day. <3
