I actually don't want witchcraft to be taken more seriously. people keep saying that's a thing they wish would happen but like. Do you want witchhunters? That's how you get witchhunters. Those hippies with the orgone pyramids are our human shields. They make us look safely and harmlessly out of our minds. its an ecosystem. Taken seriously? why? so they can blame us when they can't get it up and burn us? No thank you. I am vibrating peacefully in my spaceship sanctuary as far as they're fucking concerned and you whores better not tell em any different.

I also wonder why people want to be so open with their practice. Maybe it’s to feel validated? Maybe it’s because finding community irl is difficult? I’m not sure.

The mentors I’ve learned witchcraft from taught me that it is something practiced “in the dark”. That’s where the power comes from. Letting people know where you draw your power from can be dangerous to the work. It’s not like people can’t pray or mentally work against you when they know what you’re doing.

i dont know that i could call my teachers mentors cuz im hereditary but yeah similar lore over here. Magic stuff was very much to be kept a secret as much cuz its better not to be known and also cuz it could undo it if you bragged. Which. I have seen in my time. 🫠🙃

I will say that the current view of witchcraft as "crystals and other assorted nonsense" has saved my ass numerous times. The fewer people know the full extent of it, the better.

This post articulates precisely the reason why I never talk about love spells, or influencing spells, or my best curses, or spirit/devil stuff, with 95% of in person encounters.

My staunch atheist ex was able to deal with the crystals, incense, and meditating because it was hippie shit for the gullible and not too bright. He didn’t respect it, and honestly hated the type, but supported it once he saw that it made me happy and it wasn’t embarrassing for people he knew to find out.

Once I brought out the angelic sigil books, though, and the old grimoires . . . that’s when “what the fuck, I don’t want to see that. If you get into that we’re going to have a problem. Crystals are one thing, but that’s like actual occult. That’s creepy shit.”

These days I’d rather people think I’m “witchy” in the “drinks herbal tea for self love” way than know I invoke spirits and actually do, well, witchcraft. It’s none of their business and in reality, most people will either assume you are experiencing psychosis or you’re dangerous/creepy in an “avoid like the plague” way.

I don’t think we are meant to fear the Gods. Not even Gods of storms, death, or war. To believe in them is to accept them as they are. Don’t let anybody convince you that polytheists should fear the Gods. Be awe-struck, be humble before them if it feels right, but in this modern day and age, spirituality shouldn’t feel unsafe.

I take my wallet out of my pocket and unfold it. It is empty other than a single moth that lazily flies out. The moth lands on the tap point of the card reader. There's a beat, and my payment is processed. The moth flies back into my wallet and I put it back in my pocket.

the trees you grew up with have not forgotten you. their branches still whisper your name in the breeze and their roots remember the paths your feet once traced through their shade.

You don’t have an Angel or a Devil on your shoulder. You have an Angry Viking and 50’s House Wife.

Both are telling me to solve my problems with murder

[klinger4yossarian-deactivated20]

The debate is over the method.

[dragon-in-a-fez]

this will be the year I finally convince everyone to abandon New Year's resolutions in favour of Yule Boasting, the clearly superior tradition

[dragon-in-a-fez]

allow me to explain. Yule boasting is an old Norse tradition of getting shitfaced at the winter solstice feast and standing up to proclaim all the great, infamous, and wildly improbable deeds you will perform in the coming year. can range from an unlikely but technically possible claim, like "I'm going to rob 300 banks", to something you'd have to bend the laws of the universe to actually accomplish, like "I'm going to punch a god in the dick and steal his horse". these are not plans. they're not even goals. they're the things you'd do in a self-insert superhero fanfic. and honestly all I want this holiday season is for a bunch of friends to go all in on this nonsense with me and hype ourselves up in ways previously unimaginable
