Made this because of yet another Tumblr fiasco! Im a queer witch trying to find a new home that offers the same quirkyness as tumblr. But without the problems :)

Witchy Tip #773

mylifeasanamericanwitch:

Witchcraft is the knowledgeable use/directing of the various available natural energies to bring about a needed or wanted outcome.

An example of the various energies are plant life, animal life, divine, cosmic, human will etc…

So age, gender, sexual orientation, race etc have NOTHING to do with witchcraft itself and anyone anywhere can be a witch/magick practitioner.

Read, learn, practice, repeat. ♡

hellyeahthomassanders:

To everyone who started school last week/this week/whenever you start:
I hope you have a wonderful year/semester/school term. I hope your classes challenge you, but never stress you out. I hope you have wonderful teachers who want to see you excel and will do everything in their power to help you learn. And I hope you make lots of friends who love you for who you are and that you create a lifetime of wonderful memories together. And remember, you can do anything you put your mind to. Now go rock that place! 🙂

More Storm Witch Tips (or for any witches really):

twisters-and-witchery:

  • Be mindful of the gut feelings you have about the weather. If it feels bad, it probably is. (That goes for anything really. If it feels wrong or off, it is, and its probably best to leave it alone/get outta there)
  • Clear Quartz can influence the power of a storm by being used to store a storm’s energy. Receiving energy from a storm weakens it while adding energy strengthens it. 
  • That said, be careful about how you use storm energy. Strengthening an already severe storm could have consequences for not just you, but people around you. 
  • Just because its overcast, doesn’t automatically mean it will rain. It means most of the conditions are right, but all the necessary conditions must be met before it can rain. A simple rain spell can usually fix this.
  • Cumulus clouds + sunlight = cumulonimbus clouds. If cumulus clouds begin building into towers early in the day, there’s a good chance of storms later on.

Feel free to add on to this list!

Just so we’re all clear, it is okay to miss people you no longer want in your life.

this is so important

some people genuinely have trouble with never being told this. i am reblogging this post in case that includes any of you in my audience.

You’re missing the memories, not the person them self

You miss the person you thought they were, not who they turned out to be, and that’s okay.

The Aeclectic Tarot website is how I discovered what type of Tarot deck style I wanted! It also offers details about each deck like number of cards, measurements, and a few cards to preview. It’s incredible! I HIGHLY recommend using it when searching for a tarot or Oracle deck

Ignorant Shit Some Witches Say

mylifeasanamericanwitch:

☆You have to be all natural if you want to practice witchcraft. That means only raw organic foods.

☆You can’t mix deities from separate belief systems.

☆You must be a feminist.

☆You’re only a witch if you are initiated.

☆Real witches don’t hex or curse.

☆I’m powerful because I come from a 300+ year line of witches.

☆You can’t practice witchcraft that way, you must do it this way.

☆All love spells are bad.

☆You must always be positive.

☆You shouldn’t use spells you didn’t write yourself.

☆I’ve been practicing longer so I know more than you do.

☆You always have to cast a circle to perform magic.

☆You have to spell it “magick”, not “magic”.

☆There are no evil/bad witches.

☆You have to be female to be a witch.

☆You can’t do that spell, the planets are not aligned right.

☆Real witches believe in the Gods and Goddesses.

☆You can’t be (insert a religion here) AND a witch.

☆You have to abide by the “rule of three”.

☆Real witches don’t wear makeup because they love themselves the way they are.

a concept: me, in my cottage, in front of the wood stove, sipping tea. looking outside, my bees are pollinating my expansive garden. my goats and chickens and cows are happy and safe. i feel content with my choices and my future. i unconditionally and recklessly love myself. the local children believe i am a witch.
