I Want My Blog To Be Mostly Positive And Mostly Witchy, But Given The State Of Things, I Feel I Need

Sharing Joy (built from Sorrow): We lost our long time canine companion in October, after losing my Mother in Law in April. It broke my Husband to lose both in one year, so we re-adopted fairly quickly despite me initially wanting to wait until around Christmas or Tax Season. Her name is now Lily, and she's a Great Pyrenees and Husky mix. She's SUCH a ray of sunshine. She's always happy and playful. But her favorite toy is literally fire logs / pieces of firewood for our fireplace- and her favorite pastime is laying on the couch just chewing on my hand while I'm reading a book 🤣

I'm deeply sorry for your loss. But I'm also happy that you got Lily. She sounds amazing and your home is never boring. 😆

I'm struggling with my anxiety today, I'm trying to do small manageable tasks, with my witchy ambience music, but it's not quite helping. I do have my asks and messages open if people want ask or talk about something. I mean witchcraft is a topic, but I also enjoy journaling, bullet journaling, crocheting, or whatever tickles your fancy. I just need help getting through some house work.

The clairs are a good place to start, but each clair can branch off to different skills/traits. Clairaudience, clear hearing, can branch to telepathy. Personally, I have to write lists and charts, but I wrote categories for all my senses, then I wrote how I felt, heard, smelled, etc. It made deducing and organizing so much easier, but also my notes gave me a sense of direction of what to research.

Hi I have a question! Anytime I am in a peaceful state such as meditation I start to subconsciously think about this situation that hasn’t happened yet. I won’t go into detail into the specifics as it is very personal I was just wondering does this have a name?

I know clairvoyance is hearing/seeing things. I know it’s not that but I can picture things so clearly. I can taste/feel things and have a gut feeling? I’m so sorry if this is confusing!

Hello friend! Up front, I'm not an expert. My experiences still raise a bunch of questions for me.

I guess I'm wondering about the situation you're talking about - is it planned and just hasn't happened yet, or is it totally new to you? If that makes sense. Because that kinda sounds like anxiety. But!

Clairgustance, or "clear tasting" is most definitely a thing, and the other part sounds like intuition.

Like a muscle, psychic abilities can get stronger with practice. Tastes and smells can tell you a lot about a person or situation. Unfortunately I don't have advice on how to practice those things specifically for clairgustance but! The /r/psychic reddit thread had a lot of folks inquiring about it and I saw some good responses so might be worth checking out.

Best of luck friend!

Do you know any good crochet tutorials? :) I always seem to fuck up the rows(?) and like, I'll start with 15 stitches, and next thing you know I've somehow managed to crochet less and less stitches as each row goes on. :")

I don't have any good ones off the top of my head, when I first started crocheting, Youtube was my go to. But also, I practiced with books like this...no frills, there might be some harder stitches in some, but I liked books like that because it gives you the count in () at the end of the step. So like if you needed 6 d double crochets it would like (6 dc count) or something similar.

It's a beautiful evening, and now that I have some free time, it's time to catch up on some reading and working on my witch journal.
