The-horned-raven - The Horned Raven

I used to think communication was the key until I realized comprehension is. You can communicate all you want with someone but if they don’t understand you, its silent chaos.

Things you think you have to do as a witch that you don't have to do.

You have to wait an x amount of time before you can do–

No. You don’t have to wait. There is no prerequisites for being accepted into witchcraft. You wanted to be a witch and now you’re a witch. End of story. Now, I would advice you work on meditating and protection because you’re just gonna need it on your journey, but to flat out say you’re not allowed to do anything else but protection and meditation for a disclosed amount of years or whatever, that’s ridiculous. Do what feel is calling you.

You shouldn’t hex or curse because–

You shouldn’t tell people how to work their damn craft. If they want to hex or curse you let them. Hell, a few practices see cursing and hexing as major part of their ancestors history. If you don’t want to curse/hex don’t. But you don’t get to tell me or anyone else what to do like that. So try again. 

You have to do the spell in this exact–

Absolutely not. No you don’t. It is your magic. Yours! You know your limits, your strengths and what you can do. The spell will adjust. Use what you can. Do not worry about doing it down to the letter. Yes there are main components to a spell but even they can be altered to what you have. It’s about intent! INTENT! Do not think for a moment that you have to bend over backwards to a spell “correctly”. That’s just how they did it and that’s okay. Just follow the main points, I assume you know common sense, and you should be fine. 

New Age Things That Bother Me, A Witch

New Age Chakra. It totally ignores the actual history of Chakra and talks about it in ways that make little to no sense. It's not actually Chakra.

Light & Love rhetoric. Not everything is good and happy and nice. It is toxic positivity and it makes me so uncomfortable. It is also very harmful to people in general.

New Age Manifestation. It promises things that cannot happen and promotes this idea that when bad things happen you just don't try hard enough to manifest change and you need to try harder. It also doesn't tell you that you actually need to act on whatever you're manifesting.

Energy Healing. Pretends it can heal mental illness, physical illness, chronic illness, disabilities, and disorders. It cannot and never will be able to.

Crystal Healing. Pretends it can heal mental illness, physical illness, chronic illness, disabilities, and disorders. It cannot and never will be able to.

Spiritual Awakening. Pretends that your mental illness is actually just your psychic powers coming into being. It's not and this kind of rhetoric enables psychosis, delusions, and is extremely dangerous for mentally ill people. Do not romanticize us and pretend we have super powers. We don't.

Indigo Children. This straight up just romanticizes Autism, ADHD, and neurodivergency. It also dehumanizes people who are neurodivergent by making them seem like alien star children. Also is a way to ignore neurodivergency and prevent neurodivergent kids from receiving help.

Essential Oils. Pretends it can heal mental illness, physical illness, chronic illness, disabilities, and disorders. It cannot and never will be able to. These are only good for making rooms smell nice.

Psst, come here, I have a secret to tell you:

The people who are gonna judge you for believing in magic don't care that you ruled out every possible mundane reason for something odd happening before you say it's ghosts or something, they're still gonna judge you so just let yourself believe without having to try and find scientific evidence to support your beliefs.

🥚🥚Uncle Alabaster's Guide to Eggs and Cottage Magic 🥚🥚

Keeping eggshells may sound gross or a waste of space, but believe me when I say they can be useful to a hearth or cottage witch, and even to a green witch!

COOKING - As you might expect eggs are used in plenty of dishes when it comes to cooking. From dinner to dessert, Meatloaf to Cake, and even cooking them as a stand alone item! In cooking magic, and most magics revolving around the use of eggs and their shells ; eggs correspond with fertility, protection, spirituality, and strength.

EGGSHELL POWDER - Powder made of eggshell is just as good as, if not better than, salt for protective circles. This sentiment doubles especially outside. YOU SHOULD NEVER PUT SALT IN THE EARTH. You can make egg powder by washing the eggs and letting them dry, before grinding the shell to literal dust. You want to make sure to wash it thoroughly so any yolk or white is gone. Otherwise you'll find yourself in a smelly situation.

EGGSHELL POWDER 2 : ELECTRIC BOOGALOO - Not only does this powder make a great replacement for salts, but it can be used to fertilize your houseplants, and even your outside plants. Though when using eggshells for outside you may consider NOT washing them, as that will give the plant an extra boost.

EGGSHELL PLANTERS - And last on the list is a nifty DIY flower pot. When starting herbs you can plant them inside of your old eggshells. As the plan grows you may consider planting the shell itself into a larger pot, but when first starting out this serves as a good nursery for germinating seeds.

Hopefully this gives you ideas on how you can do more with your eggshells than toss them!

Happy Witching!

CELEBRITIES ON MANIFESTING

JIM CARREY

“I would visualize having directors interested in me and people that I respected saying, “I like your work.” I would visualize things coming to me that I wanted and I had nothing at that time but it just made me feel better. At that time, all it really was for me was making me feel better. I would drive home and think, “Well, I do have these things. They’re out there, I just don’t have a hold of them yet but they’re out there.”

“I wrote myself a check for $10 million for acting services rendered and I gave myself 3 years. I dated it Thanksgiving 1995 and I put it in my wallet and it deteriorated and deteriorated. Then, just before Thanksgiving 1995, I found out that I was going to make $10 million on Dumb and Dumber.”

LADY GAGA

“It happened around 5 years ago but it’s sort of like a mantra. You repeat it to yourself every day. “Music is my life. Music is my life. The fame is inside of me. I’m going to make a number one record and the number one hit.” And it’s not yet, it’s a lie. You’re saying a lie over and over and over again but then one day, the lie is true.”

OPRAH WINFREY

“Create the highest, grandest vision possible for your life, because you become what you believe.”

STEVE HARVEY

Like attracts like. You have to understand: you are a magnet. Whatever you are, that’s what you draw to you. If you’re negative, you’re going to draw negativity. You positive? You draw positive. You’re a kind person? Most people are kind to you…If you see it in your mind, you can hold it in your hand. This is so true.”

ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER

“When I was very young I visualized myself being and having what it was I wanted. Mentally I never had any doubts about it. The mind is really so incredible. Before I won my first Mr. Universe title, I walked around the tournament like I owned it. The title was already mine. I had won it so many times in my mind that there was no doubt I would win it. Then when I moved on to the movies, the same thing. I visualized myself being a famous actor and earning big money. I could feel and taste success. I just knew it would all happen.”

LMFAO

“At the same time, it could be what you don’t want as well. Why am I always broke? Why don’t I get girls? You’re going to attract that. You’re imagining yourself being broke, you’re imagining yourself not attracting girls and that’s going to be your result. If that law is true, then you might as well just think about what you want. In a nutshell, that’s what we did.”

JAY-Z

“I believe you can speak things into existence.”

JENNIFER LOPEZ

“Your thoughts create your life, and so you have to think positive thoughts,” All the time – you have to force yourself to think positive at times.  And so I do a lot of affirmation… “I am whole. I am good on my own. I love myself. I love you, Jennifer. I love the universe, the universe loves me. God loves me. I am youthful and timeless at every age. I am enough"”.

STEVE HARVEY

“Like attracts like. You have to understand: you are a magnet. Whatever you are, that’s what you draw to you. If you’re negative, you’re going to draw negativity. You positive? You draw positive. You’re a kind person? Most people are kind to you…If you see it in your mind, you can hold it in your hand. This is so true.”

ALBERT EINSTEIN

“Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life’s coming attractions.”

MUHAMMAD ALI

“It’s the repetition of affirmations that leads to belief. And once that belief becomes a deep conviction, things begin to happen.”

CONOR MCGREGOR

“If you have a clear picture in your head that something is going to happen and a clear belief that it will happen no matter what then nothing can stop it. It is destined to happen. It’s perfect.”
