See I was the opposite as a kid, I used to apologise whenever it rained and now I’m just like “whatever dude, I’m not helping”
Is there a crystal/something that would help me sleep? Because I keep getting only like five hours of sleep and I'm exhausted

Iirc, amethyst is good for that
Lavender scent, fresh pine leaves by your bed or under your pillow (I think just the scent would work too), raw onion right before bed, or cowslip tea.

So I charged both my pendulums last full moon, right? Well they worked for a while after that, but a few days ago they both just. Stopped? They either won't answer at all or will just move in circles (and I'm pretty sure I'm not the problem). Did I do something wrong? How do I fix them??
I got some beef. Mother earth is not causing climate change. We're not seeing the effects of it because she's mad. She's not doing anything. We are. Half of the world being on fire. The OCEAN being on fire. Massive heat waves. Global warming. Polluted water. Those are all the results of OUR actions. Mother nature is not sending us a message about how we treat the earth. We're seeing consequences of our own decisions and actions and not doing anything about it. It's not nature rising up. It's us being shitty.
and if you're one of those people who don't believe in climate change, grow up, you're a fucking witch, at least pretend to care about the earth, fuck off and suck my dick.

And this is why I’m considering just disconnecting from the internet altogether
OWEN I'M AT THIRTEEN AND THE HICCUP THING ISN'T WORKING, WHAT DO I DO NOW?
UhHH try putting salt on your tongue?
Half of the world being on fire.
We're getting loads of smoke from a fore in California. The air is toxic. This weather witch is sad.
Maybe you missed your very first one
When I was Christian, I always vibed with the Psalms. There was never any boredom or distaste I experienced when reading them. Today I learned Psalm magic is a big deal, and the Book of Psalms is regarded as a spell book by a multitude of traditions. So now I'm going back to the Psalms, and I hope to incorporate them in my practice.
Aww that reminds me this next equinox (I'll call it Fómhar) is the last holy day of my first cycle 😢
How bittersweet. I can't wait to start over again at Samhain.
My sister really wants to start practicing witchcraft, but can’t decide what path she wants to go down. She’s interested in crystals, and she’s a Taurus, and she’s super fuckin indecisive and I have run out of patience with this motherfucker. Does anyone have, like, a list of paths she could go down, or places she could start?
First clarify what she means by "path", because I'm hung up on that part? Does she mean what to focus on? Or what? Because the only thing I can think is you mean wicca vs not wicca vs all the different types of wicca vs omnism vs atheism vs whatnot which is a very personal decision and not one anyone should make for her?
I’m confused too. I’m only retelling what she asked me. I’m guessing that she means what area of witchcraft she wants to focus on, but I’m not sure, she was pretty vague.
Can you ask her to clarify? Because otherwise it's very hard to give any kind of advice
But if she means what to research, yes!
- history of witchcraft
- color magic
- candle magic
- if she's interested in crystals, definitely recommend she research those And what they mean and how to charge them and all that
- divination basics
- energy work And shadow work (important!)
- wicca (not a requirement to be a witch but most wiccans are witches)
- closed practices! Super important!!
If she wants a specific path, eclectic is pretty good if you tend to be indecisive (like me lol)! You don't have one strict practice, you really just work in whatever works for and resonates with you and catches your interest. It involves a lot of experimentation, and could also end up pointing her down a more specific path if she finds one that best suits her!
yoooo I bought this gorgeous pin celebrating Mabon from thepicketywitch on insta and I love it. its a stag!! there are raven designs, owls, and a few others just for Mabon. they do a bunch for the sabbats and just for aesthetics!

Any tips on moving into a new place? Like any cleansing/other things that might be important?
