How much longer until the utopic Solarpunk future where Capitalism is dead and we all live in ecologically sustainable high-tech forest cities? Asking for a friend.

Until we make those ecologically sustainable high-tech forest cities ourselves. It’s going to take a lot of us to do it though, so best to spread the word (and gather native tree seeds).

And, like, get started now. Then our “weirdo houses” will be the only thing functioning when everything falls apart!

The only reason why we don’t live in a solarpunk world right now is because no one has bothered to make it yet. 

We’ll have to make it ourselves, and we’ll have to help each other make it. That’s why it is solarpunk

🌱 grow ur psychic gifts! 🌱

bratty-aphrodite:

✨ Hi everyone! By popular request, I’m going to be covering the topic of psychic/spiritual gifts and how to fully utilize them. Before I get into it, I want to clarify that EVERYONE has these abilities but not everyone is aware of them. Some people have easier access to their gifts, much like how some people struggle at math while others naturally excel (lmao not me). Like any skill, psychic abilities can be strengthen and exercised through dedication, consistency, and patience. You won’t instantly wake up as fucking Jesus. Another note, being ‘psychic’ isn’t as wild and whimsical as it sounds. It can be at times  but don’t expect to start seeing ghosts popping up on every corner or fairies chilling out in your bedroom. It doesn’t work like that! The energy is much more subtle and takes time to understand, much like learning anew language. Anyways, lemme shut up and get into this shit….🔮🔮

1.  Be conscious of you health & drink tons of water! Your body is  a vessel for your spirit and, if it’s not functioning at it’s fullest capacity, it will limit your connection to your higher-self. Water is also a cleansing/charging tool for the body, mind, and spirit. When you’re doing readings or energy readings for other people it can be extremely draining for your soul. It’s important to replenish through water, high-vibrational foods, and keeping the energy circulating with exercise. For those of you with chronic illness or physical limitations, it’s okay if you can’t do intense exercise everyday. Do as much as you can within your given situation! Respect your body, it takes good care of your soul and is the vehicle for all of your spiritual work!

2. Meditation + meditation + meditation.  I feel like this is the dreaded tip because so many people convince themselves that meditating is hard!  My suggestion is to sit or lie down for five minutes after you take a shower in the morning/night. Be still and take a few breaths. It’s completely normal for thoughts to pop into your head. Don’t try to push them away! Instead, acknowledge them & then set them aside. Keep focusing on the stillness. Move your attention into your body. Is your breathing natural and rhythmic? Are your shoulders tense? Is there any discomfort? Keep breathing deeply until all of the tension evaporates. Next, try to extend your awareness to the energy around you. What does the energy of the room feel like? What are you hearing? Are you smelling anything new or unusual? Can you physically feel energy? Keep expanding your energy during meditation until you feel connected to the space that you’re in. You should finish feeling a buzzing energy flowing through your body. This is called a receptive or psychic state. Learn how to reach and hold this state because it will increase the clarity of your intuition x100! 

3. Be present. Realize that these gifts are with you 24/7 and you can practice them whenever, all you have to do is live calmly in the moment. If you’re not actively listening then how are you ever going to receive messages? Psychic energy usually comes in gentle, subtle waves which means we have to be attentive if we wan’t to feel it. Focus is also necessary. You can’t fully receive info from your intuition while also thinking about a million other things!

4. Listen to high-vibrational music!  I’m a hoe for rap music and alternative-pop artists with lyrics that are either depressing af or kind of trashy haha. While music is awesome, it also carries a vibration that can influence our own state of being. The majority o music being made now produces a lower vibration which blocks some of our receptivity. In order to boost your vibration again, listen to about 5 minutes of 528hz or 432hz beats at the end of the day! 528hz & 432hz are described as restorative, healing frequencies that help us get our energetic shit together. I always feel 100x better after five minutes of listening! I’ll link some of my faves!

1 //  2 //  3 

5. Journal & then journal some fucking more! Write down predictions so you can check them later, record any spiritual experiences, and possibly try some automatic writing. To tap into my intuition, I like to just as a question and write down the first things that come to mind. Don’t worry about rather or not they make sense, literally DO NOT THINK ABOUT IT. When you feel like you’ve written everything you need, read over what you wrote and see if any of it connects. Look for an answer within the random shit that came to mind. 9/10 you’ll find what you need! This teaches you to trust that little voice in your head or the visions that come to your minds eye. 

6. Practice, duh. Ask your friends if they’re okay with you trying to read their aura or pull some cards for them! Think of your psychic abilities as a muscle, in order to strengthen them you have to actually put in the work. One of my favorite exercises is a guessing game involving cards. You can use playing cards, tarot cards, UNO cards, whatever! Place the deck face down and, before you pull from the top of the deck, try to guess what card you’re going to flip over. Then do it again and again until you’re damn near 100% accurate. Or until you’re wrist is exhausted form flipping over cards all night. Whichever one comes first! Another wonderful exercise is psychometry which is the act of reading an object. It’s easier to start off with an object with tons of energy such as a wedding ring, anything metal, a beloved stuffed animal, or a crystal. Try to find the story behind the object and really feel the energy behind it!

7.  Get yo self some crystal babies! I’m obsessed with crystals. I seriously can not live without my children! Crystals hold energetic properties that can help us align with out psychic nature and enhance our gifts. There are tons of options but some of my personal favorites for intuitive + psychics are amethyst, clear quartz, black tourmaline, labradorite, rose quartz, and fluorite.

8. Leave your house and go out in nature. You don’t have to live near an abundant forest or breathtaking mountain to reap the spiritual benefits of fresh air! Mindfully spending time in nature is a refreshing form of meditation and brings us closest to our own intuition!

9. Sage + Incense! Clear space = clear mind. Spoke cleansing and burning incense allows us to remove any blockages in our surroundings. Before reading for a client, I always burn some sage or light up the incense. For those of you in dorms or are hush hush about your spirituality, use Florida Water! It’s a liquid household cleansing and spiritual cleansing tool that I adore. You can buy it as a spray or in a bottle. 

10. Visualize. Practicing visualization stimulates your third eye, allowing you to receive vivid and powerful clairvoyant messages. There are a hundred different ways to practice visualization but I recommend visualizing your third eye/pineal gland, located between your eyebrows, opening up. As you imagine it opening and glowing, you may even feel a slight tingle on your forehead. This is a sign that you’ve actually opened your ‘third eye’ chakra. From there, simply have fun visualizing whatever you want. Imagine a tiny pink dinosaur flying over your wall or something lmao. This just warms up the psychic muscle!

Once again, these gifts require effort and consistency. Your psychic intuition is not an accessory to play around with. It should be taken care of with hella respect and gratitude! At the same time, don’t stress too much of none of this comes easily to you.  I’ve worked incredibly hard to get where I am, incorporating every single one of these tasks + more & I still have way more to grow! If I can make sense of this weird psychic shit, you can too haha. Start applying a few of these tips and you should see improvement within weeks. Now go out there are slay the spiritual game of life bby! ⭐️⭐️

Creating a book of the dead.

necromancyandme:

Find a member of your family whom is seen as “wise” and who knows much of your family tree. It is a good idea to buy a note book and use it only for the names (and characteristics) of the dead.
It is also wise to get both sides of the family, so you may maximize the amount of spirits at your disposal.

If you are “in the closet” about necromancy you can rest assured that all you are doing is collecting names and dates as well as taking notes of what they were like in life. Nothing wrong with that.
You’ll need to mark down their birthdate, date and (if possible) time of death. Ask about stories and take notes on their personality. Ask for photographs of them and ask about their favorite food and drink.
Once you’ve written down all that you can, its time to divide them.
First make two lists,
One female and one male.
Next divide those lists into:
greater (spirits you know the most about) and lesser (spirits you know very little about).
Those lists will themselves be scaling from greater to lesser. The less you know of a spirit the less capable you will be to summon them. Knowing the favorites of the deceased will allow you to create more appealing altars and give your give better offerings during a ritual and knowing the personalities helps you choose what spirit you’d want to work and what to expect.

You should now have four lists, and a notebook full of names and knowledge of the dead. By doing this you have taken the first step into summoning a spirit.

“Let Love Find Me” Spell

pomegranateandivy:

This is an old spell of mine, I haven’t used it in almost four years. that’s because I did this spell, then before a year was up I started dating my wonderful boyfriend, and we’ve been together two and a half years now, and plan on being together until our souls fade into nothing. 

What You’ll Need:

  • A small-ish jar that can be sealed/closed
  • Some small pieces of rose quartz (or another stone you associate strongly with love)
  • Columbine flowers
  • Apple seeds
  • Something representing you (some hair, your name on a slip of paper, a few drops of your blood, something of yours, though you may not get it back for a long time)
  • Oil of your preference (I used almond)
  • Wax, color depends on what kind of love you’re looking for

I did mine on the winter solstice, though you can do it any time really. I recommend something that represents only the potential for growth from here on out though. I picked the solstice because it’s the shortest day of the year, and the world could only move into spring and growth from that point, until the summer solstice obviously, but we aren’t going to get into full season logistics here.

  • Combine all the spell components in your jar, concentrating on how you want to find someone to love, who loves you back, and let that relationship grow in a healthy way.

Rose quartz represents love. Columbine is for love, but also kind of a permanent love…think once in a life time. Apple seeds are for love, and growth. People don’t always fall suddenly in love, sometimes you just need to be patient enough for it to grow, and that’s where the apple seeds come in. All of these things are in the jar surrounding/mingling with the object that represents you. This is designed to surround you with love, and it keeps the spell focused clearly on you. You fill the jar with enough oil to cover everything, and close the lid or pop a cork in it. The oil serves two purposes. One, almonds are associated with love as well, so you’re covering everything in love, soaking it in it, BAM! Two, everything inside the jar is less likely to rot. If your flowers aren’t dry, they can go moldy, cover it in oil and it’s like those jars of oil and garlic cloves on your grandma’s counter, only thing wrong with those is they’re dusty. Once it’s all closed up with everything inside, seal the top of the jar with wax. I used black wax because I wanted to find the kind of love I where I would die for the other person. Not Romeo & Juliet kind of die where they both just throw their lives away, but the “I would take a bullet for you, push you out of the way of a bus, put my own life in danger to save you” kind of love.

Now, a little explanation. I had known my boyfriend a long time before we started dating. I had liked him, and asked him out, and he told me no. A few years later, I asked him out again, and he told me he just wanted to be friends. That was it, end of story. Well, by that time, I knew I was falling in love with him, but I wanted to respect him. I knew at that time, the only way I would get over him was to either cut him out of my life entirely (which I couldn’t stand the thought of doing), or to find someone else to love. So, I did this spell. I did it with the hopes and intentions of finding someone else to fall in love with so I could forget him and just go on being good friends. Eleven months later, I asked him to go with me to see my Great-Grandma before she died, and meet my family. He said we should probably decide how we were going to introducing him to my family. I told him however he wanted, that I was fine telling them the truth: that he’s my best friend I love him dearly. He said it would be easier to just tell them he was my boyfriend, since it wouldn’t take as many words to say the same thing. 

While it could have been serendipitous, and just pure dumb luck mixed with good timing….I think that sometimes magic works like that. I honestly believe that this spell helped my boyfriend and I both see just how much the other meant to us, and that we couldn’t imagine a future without the other person in it. That’s why this is my favorite spell of all time. Gods willing I will never get the urge to cast it ever again, but it holds a special place in my heart. Especially since the spell jar had still been perfectly in tact when he and I went for breakfast and ended up dating, but the next morning when I got up, it was completely covered in mold on the inside. The spell had been used up, it had completed it’s purpose, and I didn’t need it anymore. That’s how I knew it was magic. (also, that is the clearest sign I have ever gotten that a spell worked, undoubtedly)

🌟27 Ways to Develop Your Psychic Abilities🌟

1. Meditate every day for at least 10 – 15 minutes.  Raising your vibration is super important when you want to develop your psychic abilities.  This is because Spirit energy vibrates at a higher frequency. 

Meditation will allow you to be in a relaxed state and raise your energetic vibration.  You’ll begin to feel more connected to your Higher Self, Spirit, and the energy of others.  For variety and some fun, try a guided meditation!

2. Get to know your Spirit Guides.  During meditation, ask your Guides to show themselves to you.  Ask them their names.  Don’t filter anything, just go with it and trust.

3. Practice psychometry.  Psychometry is reading the energy of an object.  It’s SUPER fun and can be a great way to start practicing your abilities.  All you need to do is hold an object (preferably a metal object and something that has lots of energy on it, like a wedding ring), then, close your eyes and see if you can intuitively sense, see, or hear anything about the owner of the object.

4. Develop clairvoyance with flower visualization.  Visualization exercises will help develop your psychic abilities, specifically, clairvoyance.  Grab some flowers from your yard or a cheap bouquet from the market.  (It’s nice to have different types of flowers for this exercise.)  Place the flowers in front of you and study them for a little while.  Now, close your eyes and imagine one of the flowers.  When you can see see the flower clearly in your mind, move onto the next, and so on.

5. Develop your clairvoyance with random visualization.  This is fun, especially if you’ve mastered the flower visualization or just plain ole’ don’t like flowers.

6. Take a walk in nature.  Meditation doesn’t have to be boring – or done sitting down.  Do a mindfulness meditation by taking a walk in nature.  Concentrate on as each step as you walk.  Focus on the movement of your body and say the word “step” with each step you take.  This will help your mind clear of clutter and help increase your vibration.  Of course, taking a regular walk in nature without concentrating on your steps is also very meditative!

7. Read a few pages of a psychic development book every day. 

8. Read posts by trusted psychic and medium bloggers to continue getting educated about intuition and the Spirit world.

9. Visit an antique store.  Notice what you intuitively FEEL or sense by being in the store.

Does the energy feel wonderful?  Heavy?

Now pick up an object.  Do you sense anything?  Hear a name?  See a vision?  Using your psychic abilities in this way helps increase them!

10. Make a symbol book.  Psychic information comes to us in a variety of ways.  It’s often symbolic and not meant to be taken literally.

Your Spirit Guides will help you interpret information as you develop your psychic abilities.  Get yourself a nice journal and pen (I did this years ago and it’s an awesome keepsake!).

Sit quietly and invite your Spirit Guides and Angels in for help.

Ask them to give you symbols for things like events and occupations.  For example, for “birthday”, you may be shown a birthday cake (if you’re clairvoyant) or hear the happy birthday song (if you’re clairaudient).

Write it down in your symbol book.  Now, when you give a reading and are shown a birthday cake, you’ll know what it means!

11. If your using tarot, make your own tarot book.  Get a tarot deck that you love, such as the The Rider Tarot Deck.  Instead of looking at the meanings that come with the cards, use your intuition to make your own meanings.  Spend time with one card each day meditating on the card.  Write down all of your impressions of each card and what it means to you.  This is a great way to develop your psychic abilities and learn tarot.

12. Practice seeing auras.  ANYONE can learn to see an aura, so this is a great way to develop your psychic abilities.  Have a friend stand in front of a plain colored wall.  Step back about eight feet.  Focus on your friend’s forehead (third eye area).  Imagine you are looking through her, at the wall behind.  You will start to notice the aura layer around the head.

13. Develop your clairaudience (psychic hearing).  Each night, before you go to sleep, lay quietly in bed.  Listen to the sounds around you.  Do you hear crickets?  The wind rustling through the trees?  Focusing on the sounds that you normally ignore will sharpen this intuitive gift.

14. Practice giving readings often.  This is KEY to becoming a psychic or medium.  You can read all you want about golf, but until you get out there on the course and practice, you won’t become a great golfer.  It’s the same with developing your psychic abilities.

15. Tune-in to your pet.  When your pet is calm, sit with him and try intuitively picking up on how he feels.  This will help develop your clairsentience.

16. Practice reading old family photos.  I used to do this with my grandmother’s old black and white photos of family members that I had never met.  Look at the people in the photos.  Write down everything that you sense about them.  This is one of the most fun ways to develop your psychic abilities.

17. Journal often.  Journaling helps get you in touch with your Higher Self (soul) and spiritual helpers.  Try this:  Think of a situation you need guidance on.  Journal about it.  While you do, allow yourself to relax and let yourself be Divinely guided.

18. Pray.  This will help you continue to feel loved, supported, and connected to the Divine.

19. Ask a friend to call you – telepathically.  In your mind, hold the image on your friend.  Imagine energetically asking her to contact you within 24 hours.

20. Join a spiritual development circle or take a class.  This will give you a safe, loving environment in which to develop your psychic abilities and mediumship.

21. Get to know other psychics and mediums.  Being a psychic or medium can be pretty interesting!  It’s nice to have the support of others and, if you’re gifts are just developing, you can practice on each other.

22. Learn to turn your gifts “on”.  As soon as you start to develop your psychic abilities, you’ll want to learn how to control them.  This way you’re not “on” all the time, picking up everybody’s stuff.

Prior to any intuitive practice or giving a practice readingimagine lighting a candle in your mind.  Invite your Spirit Guides and Angels in.

The candle visualization lets your spiritual helpers know that you are open to psychic and Spirit communication.  This will help you learn to turn on your gifts when you want to use them.

23. Learn to turn your gifts “off”.  When you are done practicing, imagine blowing out the candle.  Thank your spiritual helpers for their Divine support.  This will help you control your gifts when you’re not working with Spirit or giving a reading.

24. Focus on your third eye.  Clairvoyance is one of the main psychic abilities.  To develop clairvoyance, take a few moments and focus on your third eye area (just above and between your eyebrows).  Imagine it opening up.  You may even feel your third eye begin to tingle.

25. Keep your vibration high.  Having a high vibration is important when you develop your psychic abilities.  Why?  Because:

  • Spirit vibrates at a very high frequency.
  • Living a joyful, authentic life, will help you feel more connected to the Divine and your Higher Self.
  • Like attracts like which means that you will attract other beautiful, spiritually aware souls into your life!

26. Eat high-vibrational foods.  Adding high vibration foods to your diet, such as fresh fruits and veggies will help your body feel good.  And the better you feel physically, the better you will feel psychically and it will be easier to develop your psychic abilities.

27. Keep a dream journal.  When your first start to develop your psychic abilities, you might start having really vivid dreams.  This is because our logical minds aren’t resisting Spirit energy while we are sleeping. (Our logical minds often make us second guess ourselves when we are awake.)  Keeping a dream journal can be helpful – and a nice keepsake of your intuitive journey!

Hope all this tips will help you opening your third eye 🙈

Sally’s True Love Spell

theillustrativewitch:

image

A spell I wrote inspired from the film Practical Magic

This is a fire free spell used to draw in your ideal lover.

This is NOT a spell to make a specific individual fall in love with you.

This spell can also be altered to search for the ideal platonic partner. See the notes section at the end of this post!

Items needed:

– Pick any of the following flower petals and dry them*
if you have the time. But fresh petals are also okay. (you don’t need the whole flower just a a couple of petals) You don’t
need all of them,
I’m just providing as many options as possible:  White
Carnation (pure love), Dark Red Carnation (Deep Love),  white
Chrysanthemum (truth and loyal love), Red Chrysanthemum (love), Red Rose
(deep love), Yellow rose (friendship/ caring), Orange/Coral rose
(passion/energy/desire), Lavender Rose (love at first sight),  Tulip
(declaration of love/ perfect love) – Any other flower you can think of
that symbolizes love + companionship. You don’t need a lot. Maximum 2
petals for each flower of your choosing.

– Hot water (like just barely hot enough for tea. As long as there’s steam, you’re golden)

– water soluble paper (get rice/wafer paper OR look for the brand print-stitch-dissolve in a local craft store. I’ve found it in Michael’s and staples for around $10) IF you can’t fine the paper, just write on your flower petals, provided they are large enough.

– pen(s)/ pencil(s) in any color(s) of your choosing

– mug or bowl

– an open window/ outdoor space

What to do:

– Start boiling your water. Feel free to put it on low heat, this may take some time.


Take your pen and paper, list the qualities you seek in a love (be they
physical or personality related). If you do wish to use a visual
element you can print out images/ draw the qualities you seek. There is no need whatsoever to glue items together

– As you write each quality, rip it up from the page so it’s on it’s own strip, place it in your mug/bowl

– when you are finished writing, take your dried petals and crumble them/ tear them up, toss them into the mug/bowl as well

-take
the mug/bowl into your hands and speak/whisper this chant

“Lover hear me. Lover know my name. Lover come find me. Lover follow my heart’s flame.“


put the bowl down, by now your water should be hot. Slowly pour in the hot water, repeating the chant if you wish. Let the steam send your wishes out into the world. Feel free to chant until you no longer see steam/ until the water cools.

– When the bowl/contents have cooled, pour out the mug/bowl. Be sure to wash it when you are done if it’s one you consume from.

Additional Notes: If you’d like, keep a copy of your list should you choose to keep an eye out for your person. Or if you’d like to perform the spell again. Feel free to copy any imagery as well and hold onto it if you wish.

*
To press + dry flowers you can either iron the flowers between sheets
of parchment paper OR press them under some heavy books (this can take
several days. But since it’s petals you’ll probably need a week max.).
If you use the iron method, make sure the iron is on the lowest possible
setting and there is no water in it. Don’t iron across the paper like
you would clothes, just dab for 10-15 seconds in each spot. Let it cool .
Maybe go over with the iron 1 more time, you don’t want to scorch/ burn
the petals.

PLATONIC PARTNER ALTERATIONS: change the the word “lover“ to “partner“ in the chant. Look for flowers that have friendship/ familial/ unconditional love related meanings such as yellow rose, Jasmine, pear blossom, primrose, yellow chrysanthemum, forget-me-not, blue violets, ect. Obviously make more changes as you see fit ❤
