writing has always been a passion of mine, and thereās nothing i love more than combining personal hobbies with witchcraft! thereās so many ways you can use writing to boost your craft, or use your craft to boost your writing; these are the ways i personally do!
honour whatās special in your craft. if youāre theistic, dedicate a piece of writing to them. if youāre not, but you want to honour something else, you could write about the earth, or the stars, or absolutely anything. this would make a great grimoire or b.o.s entry!
learn to use automatic writing. this is a cool kind of divination that allows your subconscious/higher self, or spirits around you to control what you write. iāve tried this a few times and itās quite fun, but iāve always wanted to try using it as inspiration for creative writing!hereis a much better post on it by @satinsouled.
start journaling. journaling is a great way to clear your mind and encourage creativity, but it can be really useful in witchcraft too! write about your witchy experiences however you want to, so you have reference points to come back to later
draw inspiration from your craft.Ā similar to the previous point, if youāve had an interesting experience that youād like to write about, why not turn it into a poem or short story? if you worship deities, write a story about them. create your own world of witchiness that stems from your personal experiences – your writing will always be unique and interesting because no one else will have had your experiences!
use tarot cards and readings as inspiration. instead of reading tarot like you normally would, write prose or poetry inspired by it to note down your reading. i think the best example by far is @tarotprose, one of my favourite blogs on tumblr and actually my inspiration to start combining witchcraft and poetry.
souped-up spellwork. its easy to work spells you find online, word-for-word, because you think thatās how itās āmeantā to be done. there are some people who say their way is theĀ āonlyā way, but thatās a toxic way of thinking. use poetry and creative writing to create your own, personalised chants, invocations and spells! your words will have more power for you than anyone elseās, and youāll probably find your spells will work much better if you put your own personal touch into them.
iām really trying to get back into writing, so if anyone has any poetry prompts please send them to my writeblr @aghostwrites! if you have any more suggestions please reblog with them, i always want to hear your opinions on what topics mean to you in your craft. happy witching!

This is one last info-dump for everyone participating on the May 15th mass spell which will utilize the astrological events:
The new moon in Taurus.
The planet Uranus (the revolutionary lightning bolt of change) enters the sign of Taurus (material reality, resources, and wealth) for the next seven years.
To plant the seeds of a new, more sustainable, and tangibly magical world.
For those of you out there who are still confused as to why May 15th is so important, Iām going to explain it to you via my perspective. Iām no master of astrology but I believe that on May 15th, during the new moon/Uranus enters Taurus event, we all have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to plant the seeds of a new world into the heart of the Earth and the mind of Source/The Universe.While Uranus moves into a new sign every seven years, I believe this particular movement is CRUCIAL to saving the planet/all life because this revolutionary planet is entering the sign of material reality. What does that mean? It means that we all have a chance, on May 15th, to completely restructure and change physical reality.We have a chance on May 15th to change the rules of our planet Earth simulation and give birth to a new kind of world.
Now Iām not going to tell you what kind of world to dream of. Iām not even going to say that you need to do my suggested ritual. Thatās not my place in your journey nor is it my place pretty much at all. Thatās for Source and that which is truly mysterious to decide the endgame. But what I am going to say is that on May 15th, we should put our energetic ballots in however weāre gonna do it, and plant the seeds of a new future for this world. Dream a new world up for Earth to beā¦because any physical structure built on this world was once a dream in the mind of a person/people.
But if youād like to hear my suggestion for May 15th, I propose we all remember we are a part of Source, and dream a new dream for this world.
Take five minutes even out of your schedule to sit down in a comfortable position, proclaim/remember that YOU ARE SOURCE/an expression of Source (which is called God or is many deities by many names), and that by virtue of this you have the power to change the entire world by simply envisioning it inside your mind or believing in the possibility of it on May 15th. Thereās no tools needed. No items. No regalia. Just you and your power to create reality with your imagination, your belief, and your magic.
Those who are driving this world to ruin are certainly doing the same every moment that we breathe!
Here are the times for the new moon. Keep in mind that Uranus enters Taurus a couple of hours after the new moon.
Los Angeles, May 15 at 4:47 am
New York, May 15 at 7:47 am
London, May 15 at 12:47 pm
Delhi, May 15 at 5:17 pm
Sydney, May 15 atĀ 9:47 pm
Some of you might have noticed that I did not suggest an exact time. This is because I want as many people to participate as possible. I believe that keeping the time semi-loose (within a 24 hour period of the event either the night before on the 14th through the evening of the 15th) will be more beneficial to this cause than having only a small band of people willing to do it because their mundane schedules allowed them. Some people have work. Some people have class. Some people are sick. Some people have obligations that I can not anticipate but I think everyone can take five minutes out of their day on the 15th to do one small meditation to themselves and with their own ideas of Source of magic.
Another observation about May 15th that seems relevant is that Uranus enters Taurus quickly after a new moon in Taurus. So in my mind, we will be planting seeds (our dreams for the future) in fertile soil and then harnessing/directing/utilizing that Uranian lightning to strike that fertile soil so our seeds can grow. The implication here is that once the lightning has struck the ground, we canāt wait around for the seeds to sprout. You can expect seeds to instantly yield fruit. These seeds weāve planted must be tended to. So tend to your energetic seeds in this metaphorical garden scenario after May 15th. Dare to live your seed dreams.
You wanna start a business? Do it.
You keep wanting to leave a relationship that makes you cry? Do it.
You want to explore who you really are and what you identify as without anyone else trying to control that? DO IT.
You believe in sustainable farming? Be the sustainable farming you want to see in the world and make it happen.
You have an invention youāve been putting off? Donāt put it off anymore.
You have a dream your parents donāt believe in? As long as it doesnāt hurt yourself or others, fuck them-just do it.
You want to just be able to smile or get out of bed? Please, just give one more day or week a chance after May 15th.
Because this May 15th stuff is only setting us up for Nov 7th, when Uranus will retrograde back into the sign it is presently: Aries. During that time, we will have to tend to our seeds again, and I will be doing another thing much like this one. And another one again once Uranus goes direct again in Taurus for the next seven years in 2019. You can imagine that all three rituals done during these Uranus movements are like notching the arrow of a bow, drawing it back, and firing it off. May 15th is special because we are manifesting the arrow, which in this example, is a metaphor for the new world we wanna manifest.
Some of you might be wondering how all of our wildly different visions for the world could all become true. I donāt think it matters much. Iād rather spin the wheel on any one of your dreams, Tumblr magicians and believers, than I would risk doing nothing at all. Or letting those fucking up this world decide. Besides, in my perception, all sorts of conflicting realities live right next to each other perfectly fine every day. However, and I may be naive in believing this, butā¦I think every dream for the future planted on that day fits into the grand design in ways that I cannot and will not claim to understand. And that all these wildly different visions are needed for the turbulence of whatās to come. Let the Universe decide the pattern of the weaving but letās provide the Universe with our threads to weave with.
And finally:
For those of you who were particularly interested in the knife idea and connecting the world tangibly with the worlds of magic once moreā¦May 15th is the perfect time to begin building a bridge. Please message me for more info about this if thatās your goal. Because ultimately, thatās my goal on May 15th.
In order to save Earthās future, I believe we must reconnect it to the worlds of magic once again, and bring about a new age of understanding reality. A revelation, you could say. I am just one of many standing amongst the magic community who believe this. I know there are more people out there who believe this in their truest hearts and Iām calling out now-Iām calling out to everyone of you who believes in that-to do something on May 15th to call that reconnection back into being! Iām calling you to act now! Believe now! Do whatever you can to dream that bridge into being on May 15th!
Anyways, there you go. Thatās my rant. Feel free to message me, pick my mind, fire off questions⦠Send them to my mailbox. Ask me on my blog. I will do my best to answer each one to the best of my abilities.
So before tonight ends and we all prepare to change the world, from one dreamer to another, letās give May 15th our best shot. No matter what the Cosmos grand design makes of our individual shots. Together, letās dare to believe, and dream in a new world.
I noticed that there were only small pockets of posts on helping ease dysphoria or helping you feel more at home with your gender/identity so I decided to compile what I could here!
TERFS are not welcome to interact with this post. But, I always seize the opportunity to block gross people!
ALWAYS REBLOG WHEN YOU SEE SOMETHING LIKE THIS PLEASE; ITS SO MUCH MORE THAN IMPORTANT TO PEOPLE. IT MEANS EVERYTHING TO SOMEBODY AND EVEN THOUGH YOU MIGHT NOT SEE THIS IN THE SAME LIGHT, SOMEONE MIGHT. INFACT YOU REBLOGGING THIS COULD STOP SOMEONE TAKING THEIR LIFE TONIGHT.
Seriously thank you.
Please reblog. I love every single one of you. Youāre not alone.
Rainbow lattice sunstone is an extremely rare form of sunstone found in Australia. The cheapest one I have found has been over 100 dollars. It is a rare occurrence when Sunstone occurs in a Moonstone, let alone with the added presence of the other phenomena seen in this extraordinary gemstone –Ā perfect parallel lines and equilateral triangles which are incredibly rare in nature. An alchemical stone bringing a profound connection to light and the regenerative power of the sun during meditation and in everyday life. These Phenomenal gems exhibit moving lines, star energy, and is considered to bring good luck. Sunstone carries the energy of Ra, the sun god, whose energy brings all potential life from Earth. It is a Stone of Leadership – of personal power, freedom, and expanded consciousness. This sacred stone creates enlightenment and warmth, strength, mental clarity, and the willingness and ability to help others.
Rainbow lattice sunstone is so rare and the formation is so unusual, it is believed that it is actually not from this planet at all. Some even believe that it contains alien DNA. Star seeds or people who are interested in aliens seek to acquire this odd and unusual gem to acquire information from the alien race.
A spell to invoke the Switch Word āDivine.ā When this Switch Word is used, it requests the universe to bring you a miracle. Think about what would constitute a miracle as you cast this spell.
Apparently bergamot is getting popular. I figure nowās a good time to address the issue.
Bergamot is a citrus fruit that smells amazing, so a lot of people like to make essential oils out of it and put it in candles and stuff.
However, this should NEVER go on your skin. It has the same effects as Giant Hogweed (& some other wild carrots like Queen Anneās Lace) and will give you nasty rashes and chemically hyper-boosted sunburns by making skin highly reactive to sunlight.
Remember this?
I personally have had friends who were seriously hurt by putting bergamot essential oils on their skin. It sucks.
In case you donāt want to look it up yourself:
Donāt use or make bergamot soap. Donāt use or make bergamot lotion. Donāt use or make bergamot anything that goes on your skin.
Just donāt put bergamot on your skin.
Stay safe beautiful! ⤠And please signal boost this!
The bergamot in Earl Grey tea is the best thing in the world. Bergamot on your skin isnāt.
Iāll start off by saying that imaginary friends do nothing for gaining experience.
An imaginary friend is something you can control, they are a part of your imagination.
It doesnāt help you with learning on how to sense or communicate or interact with spirits, and it certainly doesnāt help with discernment.Ā
Iād also like to point out that many of the people who want to count having imaginary friends as kids go back and end up counting the time between them having an imaginary friend and where theyāre at now as years of experience. It makes as much sense as me taking a science class in elementary school and suddenly calling myself an expert microbiologist!Ā
The only thing that should count towards someoneās experience level is years of actual spirit work, and nothing less than that.
