Personal Do Not Read Witchy Author List

There will be a google doc with updates as I find more authors to avoid. These are all my own personal opinion and I do take the author's actions into account when judging their ability to write legitimate information.

TW: Slavery, serial killers, racism, TERFs, creeps, neonazis, asylums, and a slew of other super unsavory things. I tried to make this list as PG as possible while highlighting the issues with these individual people.

*Alestier Crowley. *

He's a literal piece of garbage. Misogynistic, thief of a toooon of closed practices, has entire cults still dedicated to him, called himself a voice of God (both Abrahamic and apparently like 5 Egyptian deities??? I mean excuse me sir how about no??) He also declared himself ‘above’ Gods back in 1922 calling himself Ipssissimus. I hate Crowley so much I have literally stuck a picture of him to a dartboard before. He can suck an egg in the afterlife. He also put his own wife in an asylum for 'alcoholism’ because she wanted a divorce. The only thing he ever did right was get kicked down a flight of stairs at a temple once by a poet.

*Anastasia Greywolf*

Appropriates at least Jewish practices if not every Indigenous practice there is. Wholeheartedly encourages people to use magic instead of going to a doctor for things like oh I dunno EPILEPSY And claims she has spells for like Marvel-level super powers which uh no Ana. You don't. Lots of Christianity for a supposedly FULL pagan and wiccan author. Her spells are all controlled like...so wrong. So, so wrong. Don't ask please. I can't begin to describe it. Advocates for smudging and uses phrases like "Cherokee Rituals", and the Romani G-slur.

*Gerald Gardner*

Made his own branch of wicca, the first technically, and his own coven had to make rules just so he wouldn't spill everything to any reporter that asked. Used Crowley as a main resource.

*Jason Miller*

Claims to do Hoodoo. A horrible formatter, and generally super dismissive of being a rootworker and other potentially closed practices, has not been initiated. Has claimed that anyone can petition/pray to Papa Legba without initiation because "Vodou is a congregational religion/practice". From the Vodou and Haitian Vodou practitioners I have talked to that is VERY incorrect, it may be congregational but you still have to be involved in the community to be trusted with those practices because so much of it has been bastardized for media and racism purposes. He is also a student of Catherine Yronwode, who is another SUPER problematic figure in the Hoodoo/Rootwork community.

A link of his own words on culture appropriation which includes mild inaccuracy towards Indiginous Peoples and that they don’t ‘own’ certain practices when it’s very clear the wording of those practices DOES in fact come from those peoples. He’s fine with people being Yogis, or Shamans, or calling satchel spells mojo bags, and other such phrases and won’t correct people if they use such words out of context because “language changes”. Also says if someone within a practice says it’s closed to go to ANOTHER AND ANOTHER until you find someone willing to teach you??? That’s not how it works sir.

*Lisa Chamberlain*

Not an actual person. This is a ghost writer name for a bunch of garbage literally copy and pasted from wikipedia into books. I wish I was kidding.

*Lisa Leister/Lester/whatever other spelling she's used.*

Such a major TERF. Like JK Rowling level TERF. Claims magic comes from a womb so anybody that doesn't have one isn't a real witch. Like WTF lady.

*Raymond Buckland*

Where to start...uses the G-slur often. (His grandfather was romani so it blurs the line of blood quantum.) Very sexist and obsessed with the idea of a woman getting uh...undressed for rituals while men stay dressed and more things I cannot say ina PG space??? As magic?? VERY anti-minor and LGBTQA+. Toxic, just plain toxic. Can't do it. I have read his Blue Book and it's the least problematic thing he wrote. I'm alright with it.

*Silver Ravenwolf* WhOOO boy. So super anti-christian, which is fine and dandy...if you didn't claim to be in a lineage of braucherei/hexerei. Wiccan, like the type of wiccan that says no other witchcraft exists and yet has written folk magic books??? She really needs to make up her mind. Claims Satanists don't actually exist. Claims most Jewish powers worshiped "the Goddess" (whoever that is)??? Very cult-like language about "not telling friends and family about your new life/reality/experience/whatever". Also SO MUCH APPROPRIATION. SO SO MUCH. She also gets her history wrong, on a lot of basic information that most non-witches know about like say the Salem Witch Trials.

*Catherine Yronwode* Ooh man. So Catherine Yronwode’s career started as a comic book artist. She’s worked on such things like the Elvira comic, DNAgents, and a gaggle of super controversial trading cards which included the Kennedy Assasination, a serial killer collection, and the AIDS epidemic. Of which she was sued for using one half of the Hillside Stranglers duo in said killer trading cards without his permission, the judge sadly threw the case out because and this is a quote, “ If Bianchi had been using his face as a trademark when he was killing women, he would not have tried to hide it from the police.” There were two more from her comic days, but those aren’t super relevant besides the one that pushed the envelope of what sort of trading cards should be sold to children. On the magical side of things, I will be blunt here: As one of the ‘big bads’ of the Rootwork/Folk/Hoodoo community? I really REALLY dislike her. She has made numerous false claims about New Orleans/Haitian Vodou and that it’s only a very recent practice, non-religious, and slaves never used it because it didn’t exist yet??? History books and entire generations will disagree. An example would be this link of an open letter to her written by a New Orleans Voodoo practitioner and someone she wrote a whole article about: https://conjureart.blogspot.com/2013/10/open-letter-to-cat-yronwode-and-lucky.html

She owns a few different websites namely https://www.luckymojo.com/, has written numerous Hoodoo based books, and actively has accused numerous people who have asked her for sources and or disagreed with her of plagiarism and has slung more mud that you can shake a stick at.

She also praises a book on Marie Laveau and yet discredits herself by calling New Orleans Voodoo a new religion/neopractice??? She’s just confusing as all heck to me.

*Christian Day* This guy’s just a creep. One stuck in the early 2000s mall goth phase even though he’s over 50. He also appropriates Hoodoo and owns two Hoodoo shops as well as multiple other witch shops in Salem and recently New Orleans on the French Quarter (Which is pure tourist fodder and not a reflection of true New Orleans Voodoo/Vodun/Rootwork). He has also harassed ex-employees so badly it’s landed him in court. His book The Witch’s Book of the Dead also reads very much like a list of accomplishments rather than anything useful. All about his television spots and experiences doing that. (Did I mention he was in an episode of Ghost Adventures? Yes, that one with Zac Bagans??? And it did not make us witches look too great, honestly speaking.)

https://www.wcvb.com/article/warlock-christian-day-ordered-to-stay-away-from-salem-witch/8228072

*Yvonne and Gavin Frost* I dunno how else to say this, I really don’t. These two? Pedophiles. Multiple writings of theirs included not-safe-for-work-or-children rituals that must include minors. Avoid. AVOID AVOID. AVOID ANYONE WHO USES THEM AS A RESOURCE! This should NOT be okay in any circle. They are VERY used within the Wicca religion so please be careful!!

*Orion Foxwood* Some of his information is very sound! I can’t fault him there. He does have a tendency to blend different traditions without actively TELLING you he’s blending them though. He’s and this is a direct quote, “He is a witch and Elder in Romano Celtic-Traditional Craft, High Priest in Alexandrian Wicca and teacher of the Faery Seership tradition. He is also the founding Elder of Foxwood Temple and a primary founder of the Alliance of the Old Religion, a national network of covens in his line that have united to preserve the ways of his Elders. He was the co-director of Moonridge, a center for metaphysical, Craft and Faery studies in Maryland” That’s an awful lot of traditions to juggle and not only write on but actively teach. He also performs conjure, which in of itself might not be an issue but Conjure usually blends into Hoodoo really quickly if one isn’t careful! A lot of the traditions he talks about from his family sound quite familiar, he’s clearly from Appalachia but his books on the subject blend in his other practices instead of keeping them separate.

*Starr Casas* She’s in the same category as Orion, only she doesn’t necessarily give her credentials to be teaching Hoodoo, and even wrote a whole book filled with Hoodoo love spells. She also co-owns a French Quarter Conjure Shop, which if you ask any practitioners from New Orleans...is catered to pure tourists and not a true example of the crafts from the area.

*Shawn Engel* I’m gonna be blunt here. More appropriation of the Jewish practices, Hoodoo, and other information that is just plain UPG without saying it’s UPG and encourages throwing hexes at political party members solo. I read The Power of Hex and had to put it down numerous times just to gather myself and not throw it away, I don’t know if it was tone or sheer level of appropriation...likely both.

*Kate Freuler* Of Blood and Bones is chock full of Hoodoo, full stop. Only acknowledges that something comes from Hoodoo once and also gets basic mythology information on the Deities she mentions wrong in some cases. Also a lot of the book seems to be UPG because the bibliography is super small for a 300 page book.

*Dorothy Morrison* I picked up Utterly Wicked once. A very odd book full of Hoodoo and Vodun spellwork and misinformation, the author is also Garderian Wiccan so even the writing of a book full of hexes is slightly...concerning compared to the Wiccan traditions and redes. Odd is the best I have to describe how I personally feel. I will say this again: Voodoo Dolls are not used to cause pain, stop bastardizing that single aspect of the practice. Thank you.

*Helena Blavatsky*

I dunno how else to say this either, her philosophy and occult knowledge, called Theosophy is a portion of what inspired Hitler. Pure unadulterated racism veiled in a ‘Atlantian Race Theory”. Horrible stuff, read for a class project once and felt disgusting.

*Christopher Penczak*Whoo boy. On the surface he seems alright, one of the first ‘male’ witches I had ever heard of except for Scott Cunningham. But the more you dig into his work the more inaccuracies and Christian bashing you see. For example: Christianty was the first patriarchal society. Uhm...I believe you’re kinda forgetting the men who ran Rome and Greece there sir. He also fully proposes the ‘burning times’ were like a ‘witch holocaust’. NO! NO IT WAS NOT. You can’t compare the hundreds of years and MAYBE a thousand-ish people dying to the millions that died in the short timespan the Holocaust was a thing. Fuck Christopher for that comparison and also for claiming it was a ‘burning time’ to begin with. (History says that most were hung...or tortured. Burning is a very small number of that list in general.

He makes a lot of sweeping statements and sees witchcraft as a religion and NOT a practice. He whitewashes, fully harps on the Wicca = witchcraft = religion thing and THEN hones in on the difference between “white and black” magic and how cursing is evil and yet highlights certain practices that actively practice...cursing...as they have for generations??? He (atleast) doesn’t demonize Satanism but does still backhand the idea anyway, that they CAN’T be witches because witches only ‘heal’. Cultural appropriation and fetishization of ‘Native’ practices while calling them primitive all in the same breath, I just can’t with this guy. I really can’t.

*Amy Blackthorn*

Owns a tea brand called ‘Blackthorn Hoodoo Blends’ she is white. When questioned by BIPOC individuals she complains and blocks them instead of explaining why she chose the name Hoodoo for just teas. TEA. She is also the author of Blackthorn’s Botanical Magic, Sacred Smoke (A book on smudging yikes on trikes), and Blackthorn’s Protection Magic.

Proof of blocking: https://thisblackwitch.com/2016/04/01/blackthorn-teas-whose-culture-is-it-anyways/

*Tarl Warwick *

Is more commonly known as Styxhexenhammer666 on youtube and other social media sites. Has written a pile and I mean a PILE of occult based books including ones on Hermetic magic, ritualistic magic, demons, solomon, folk plants and healing, Kabbalah, and many MANY more.

He makes no claim to being Jewish, and given his political wishy washiness, and multitude of controversies which includes claiming the Holocaust wasn’t ‘that many dead’, Charles Manson deserved release because he was ‘extremely innocent and didn’t kill anyone’, and fairly recently also wrote and published a book on Critical Race Theory and why it’s ‘garbage’. I can’t support him no matter how accurate some of his information may be (if any at all).

*Temperance Alden* This really pains me to say, Temperance in her Wheel of the Year book made a claim that birth control “stunted her magical abilities” because it affected her hormones…in OTHER words unless you are a perfectly hormone producing WOMAN you don’t have great magical power. AVOID. AVOID. AVOID. That is a slippery slope to claiming medication will harm you, not to mention how TERF-y it is AND completely disregards that magic is for well…everyone. Such a stupid gatekeep-y concept.

*Sarah Kate Istra/Dver*

Advocates for using ‘spirit animals’ regardless of Indigenous beliefs and concerns. Is also a known ally with the Piety Posse, a neo-nazi group of pagans who claim the term polytheist can only apply to them and if you aren’t a Hellenistic pagan…you aren’t pagan at all. They also advocate for animal sacrifices, blood tests to prove purity, and other horrible HORRIBLE stuff.

*Sannion/H. Jeremiah Lewis*

Obvious Neo-nazi, keeps images of swastikas on his personal blog, and not the ones that the nazis stole from, the nazi one. And super SUPER transphobic.

*Edward P. Butler*

Major persecution complex, spends half his twitter complaining about how monotheists are destroying…I dunno…everything? Also defends Krasskova quite heavily. Antisemetic as well.

*Galina Krasskova*

Hellenic pagans watch out. Defends the AFA. A ringleader of the Piety Posse. There’s a lot more horrific stuff about her and I won’t go into extreme details. But TW: Romanticizes SA with deities, human sacrifice, animal sacrifice. Compares debating to the holocaust, lots of victim blaming, gatekeeping, and screams folkish.

*Diana Cooper*

Racist. Hard stop. Also appropriates chakras. Has a weird belief that food controls skin color and that Africa will never be a good country because it’s the solar plexus of the universe…or something like that. I got 20 pages into the book and literally couldn’t go any farther. Did I mention this book was supposedly on dragons???

*Judika Iiles* So much appropriation, advocates for making altars and working with closed deities. Lots of incorrect information including dangerous spellwork like obsession spells. And one in particular that has roots in a racist stereotypes. Avoid please!

Venti x fem!reader

AVITOIC(N.);; THE STRONG DESIRE TO FLY, OR TO BE UP IN THE AIR

FEATURING; Venti

DESCRIPTION; Royal AU;; where reader is a princess and is going to be married to someone she doesn’t know. Reader is going to marry someone from the Edelsteinstadt-Fontaine (which is currently undergoing a national crisis. Fontaine is torn into two different republics rn.)

CW. Minor swearing, forced marriage, crying

NOTES; part two to be uploaded!! hehehehee i love venti(who doesn't)

It felt ethereal. Everything felt so ethereal. Flowers surrounded you and ‘Belüftung’, whilst seatherny was playing in the background. The anemo vision wielder hoped all of this was just a dream, hoping that this was reality. This is the only place where the girl can be herself, not a princess, not an eccedentesiast, but her very own self. With these seemingly unharmful thoughts lingering in the princess’ mind, the corner of the aspectabund young lady’s lips curved up into a seraphic smile. To ‘Belüftung’, she was simply comely. To them, this is their heaven, their utopia.

Sitting under a tree watching the sunset, while the animals playing with each other, ‘Belüftung’ smiled too. It was all so idyllic, full of happiness. Then the smile on the girl’s lips turned into a frown. Oh no, She must be thinking something about her arranged marriage, the male thought. His big, turquoise hues reflected the Princess’ pretty face so clearly as if they’re made from gemstones. He took off his beret and gently placed it beside him. Her hands were in his, but not anymore now. The bard’s slender fingers, after years and years of lyre strumming, was now between the girl’s chin and tilting it softly, making his loved look at him. ‘Look, I get you’re sad, but it’s all going to be okay, all right? There’s nothing wrong with you,’’ The archon murmured, forehead to forehead, holding you tightly.

The so-called ‘Belüftung’, who’s name is actually Venti, is now pressing his lips to the sobbing girl’s temple, whispering reassuring words to you. ‘I promise I’ll be at your wedding place by tomorrow’s dusk, alright? I know how uncomfortable you’ll be, but please, remember I’ll always be there for you.’ He whispered in your ear, not letting you go. The princess did the same too, still sniffing, hands wrapped around Venti’s back tightly, whispered her gratitude to her partner, ‘Thank you, Barbatos, je t’aime.’ Pulling back form the hug, you gave Barbatos a genuine smile, which something the eccedentesiast haven’t done in months, or years. He retuned your smile with a same one, ‘And thus, we’ll meet each other in real life and not in the Dream anymore, my muse.’

With a swoosh of wind, the girl woke up with a hint of mixed feelings, not to mention that today’s her 18th birthday and her wedding day, which she didn’t agree to. As the fifth ray of sunbeam began to pour into the room, the girl rubbed her eyes, enjoying the silent but delicate aura in the room. Not long after, someone knocked on the door and silently turned the doorknob and found their way into your room. The currently unknown figure closed the door swiftly, and you see your only friend in the palace-Lisa, the librarian in your family’s palace.

She bowed, although you told her she didn’t have to do that. ‘Your Highness, may I be so bold to say a few humble words,’ She breathed, hands trailing amongst the golden-edged footboard, ‘First and foremost, happy birthday, my dear...friend,’ She gave you a smile, somehow to be relieved that you approved the title as her ‘best friend’, of course, she’s a mere librarian- and look at you, a princess, a soon to be queen! 'I have something to tell you, Your Highness, I deeply apologize for overhearing what the chamberlain said to your Father, you're marrying the King from Edelsteinstadt, and as you know... he's 72 years old,' Her breath hitched as if she doesn’t want to accept your fate like how you do. “Anyways, thank you so much for your information, I truly appreciate it, if it weren’t you I wouldn’t have know what to do, they didn’t tell me either— I mean, just how could they do that? I’m th—their own daughter…just, how could they,” the fear of no knowing what the future would do to you, not knowing what the old man could and would do to you, feeling the tense and the pain beginning to spill out, tears brimming your eyes, you hoped all of this is just a dream. It's all so, so so so overwhelming. Broken whimpers and sobs could be heard in the whole room. Heels clicking, you feel a sudden weight on the bed. The libarian genttly patting your back, drawing messy circles to soothe you. It surely calmed you down, as you blew your nose into the handkerchief.

As the maids began to pour in the room, Lisa sat up and pretended to tell you something, she had to fake it.Something so ''intimate'' is strictly forbidden amongst the royals. Letting a librarian sitting on the Princess' bed and rubbing circles on their back? Far too intimate, they claim. Sitting up as you sliently bid an informal farewell to Lisa. You are very, very sure that Venti will come save you from this disaster, you put all your trust into him, becasue he is going to be your very soon fiancé, the one who you truly loved.

same outsiders anon: i feel like the only yters that have somewhat "made it" mainstream are like troye, dodie and lisa koshy (somewhat bc she does netflix movies/walks red carpets)?? the other ppl i can think of are ppl like ksi, logan paul, emma chamberlain but those feel more like they just became such big yters that they sort of breached containment in a sense. i wish there was some sort of mentorship program for dan to sort of learn to be broadly appealing, but maybe it's too late

Troye and Liza dropped youtube. i watched Liza's interview after the transformers movie came out. she is done with youtube, she outgrew it. she had skills to create characters and play them, and it helped her to get roles. i watched Liza on Demand on youtube. it's not bad. i expect dinok to be something like that. but and i'm happy she found herself in a mainstream entertainment.

Troye... our youtube baby. well, he had to completely drop youtube for that as well. but only when he achieved something in music industry already.

Dodie also kinda dropped youtube? it's very music centred, but i feel like it has been for a long time. (can't say much about Dodie, don't follow her)

Dan tried to drop youtube before he started to make a name outside of it. and he had to come back, it's his main platform for everything. and he didn't have a label or strong management behind him back then, and now he is only starting with UTA. and UTA manages several youtubers but i don't see their work outside youtube. so i don't know what Dan is trying to achieve with UTA aside from a possible dinok deal. anyway.

Emma, KSI, and Logan fucking Paul. Dan jokes about youtubers boxing matches, but these things kinda helped KSI and the Paul brothers step outside of youtube. Emma's case is very different, i don't even know what to say.

Mentorship... but like, can there be a proper one? don't try to host a late night show. youtubers aren't built for that. what works on youtube doesn't work with a huge production and live audience that doesn't know you.

gladly, we do know Dan, and he is doing most of the things by himself.

#i'm not even mentioning inter talent. the only thing they did is picked up wad and failed to sell it #and their social media managers don't know what they are saying in posts about dnp #like i'm sorry #answered #uta #liza koshy

Enemies:

European demigod Lucas Bartholomew Chamberlain

Lucas Bartholomew Chamberlain. He is a cishet male. He is white and non-native. He is European. Lucas was an attempt to Americanize and Earth centric himself as a politician of the Terran political system. He is able bodied, allistic, & neurotypical. He is 5′11”. He has blonde hair and blue eyes. He has a crew cut hair style. He has a lean and athletic body type. He is 160 pounds. He is Roman Catholic.

He speaks Swedish, English, German, Arabic, Spanish, & French. He is conservative and alt right. He is upper class rich. He is an intergalactic scientist, inventor, & engineer. He has a masters in biomedical engineering and PHD in xeno biology. He went to college off planet to Ivy League University on the planet Titan. He played high school varsity baseball and men’s collegiate football. He comes from a super wealthy family that owns various iron and diamond mines and refineries across the galaxy. They mine asteroids and comets in space for space ore as well. The parents are still alive but both were only children. He is also an only child. He has holographic military tattoos of the Earth and Terran Dominion military as a Earth Space Marine Corps veteran. He has holographic military tattoos on his forearms.

He is a former super soldier. He was an officer in the Earth and Terran Dominion military. He was a colonel. He is a scientist, inventor, & engineer. He built weapons and tech for the Earth and Terran Confederation. A lot of the superweapons the Earth and Terran Dominion used for their war crimes were built by him. Like the Star Crusher a weapon that doomed the entire Regulus System to be vaporized by a supernova. To show the universe the might of the Earth and Terran Dominion military. It is why the Sol Vega and Polaris System all surrendered overnight. After seeing only a tear in the fabric of space was left. The screams of billions wiped out in an act of intergalactic genocide can still be heard across space and time. He is an intergalactic politician. He is a politician who is a remnant of the Earth government and Terran Confederation government as a former senator of the Earth High Command representing the United States.

He views humans as weak. He hates that he is half human. He joins the super soldier program for this reason. To get rid of what he deems as human weakness. It is why he marries Daphne, a superhuman with bionic enhancements and cybernetic implants. He is a former superhero. He has delusions of grandeur. He is a megalomaniac.

He is a supervillain, antihero, & anti-villain whichever serves him best. He has no allegiance to anyone or anything but himself. This personality was made worse when he found out that he is a demigod. He is a metahuman with superhuman: strength, speed, durability, & intelligence. The queer and trans Asian Pasifika and Latine Native superhero Kana’i Makoa Latu/Ataahua Kamalani Latu is his archenemy and rival. He/she/they is his arch enemy as he/she/they and Joanna Jacobson exposed him for who he truly was.

Lucas Bartholomew Chamberlain is a former disgraced member of the superhero conglomerate Sentinels. He uses his background as a scientist, inventor, & engineer. He/she/they are a metamorph, changeling, & shapeshifter as an alien hybrid and a water elemental as a demigod.

He is a demigod child of a European goddess of death. He has power over fire and decaying things. Powers he used to his advantage when conquering planets for the settler colonizer regime. He also uses forbidden dark magic against him/her/them in their battles. When he uses the power of death his eyes blaze jade. When he uses the power of fire his hand burn crimson. He wears divine armor as a demigod. The divine armor has a long red gaudy and pretentious cape. His armor is red, black, & gold. He wears a black domino mask and green face mask. In his demigod form his short hair turns into a short dutch braid.

Lucas as a former politician was the mastermind behind many of the actions of the Earth and the Terran Confederation. He used his power, influence, control, & power to hurt people. So many of the cruel actions that Earth and the Terran Confederation did with their colonialism, imperialism, neocolonialism, & occupation was passed by him as a politician behind the scenes. Lucas as an inventor, scientist, & engineer in the shadows built many of the weapons that Earth and the Terran Confederation used to maintain their hegemony and dominion. He was one of the leaders of the Forces of Evil. He left them when they no longer served his goals.

Runes with Apollo

A while ago my dad bought me a set of runes and a beginner’s guide to reading them; I had always meant to learn how to use them, but I honestly just never got around to it.

However, I recently decided to begin a relationship with Apollo!

I have pendulums dedicated to Aphrodite & Hermes, but I don’t have the money to buy one for Apollo, so I figured we could try communicating through my runes! Since he is closely associated with divination, I figured there wasn’t anyone better to learn alongside.

I did my first reading, just asking what this new relationship with him will look like and what I can expect in the future!

These were the runes I casted:

The first rune is known as “Gebo.”

“Gebo is the rune of gifts and generosity. . . Drawing Gebo often indicates that you are receiving a gift, which may be material in nature or something intangible, such as emotional support.”

I decided to pursue this relationship with Apollo due to my need for confidence in my artistic endeavors. This rune saying he will provide emotional support suggests to me that Apollo will help me on this journey.

The second rune is known as “Dagaz.”

“Dagaz is the rune of daylight and is considered a very beneficial sign in any reading. . . Increase, growth, prosperity, strength, good health, and general well-being are indicated by this rune. . . There is a related aspect of protection to Dagaz, as daylight is considered a protective force. . .”

This is really interesting to me since the rune itself is known as the rune of daylight and Apollo is associated with the sun. I also think the fact that it indicated good health makes a lot of sense since that is within his domain and I’ve had a lot of medical issues over the years, including an upcoming surgery. Knowing I casted this rune makes me feel incredibly comforted in this relationship. :’)

The third rune is known as “Fehu.”

“Fehu may indeed indicate that good fortune in the form of wealth is coming your way. . . As the first character of all the runes in the Elder Futhark, Fehu also symbolizes beginnings.”

This was really special to me because I would like to pursue a career in writing, something that I’ve asked for Apollo’s guidance in. The fact that this rune indicates good fortune in wealth suggests to me that pursuing this relationship will allow me to achieve my goals as a writer and reap the rewards. Not to mention the fact that this rune symbolizes beginnings and this relationship is certainly a new beginning for me!

I don’t think this reading could have gone any better and as someone that is a natural skeptic (i’m working on that), having such a clear sign of Apollo’s presence through these runes wipes any doubts I may have had regarding our new connection. I feel incredibly blessed. <3

Star Wars and Dark Crystal are only the franchise that It made you cry because Anakin Skywalker dies in Return of Jedi while his family dies in sequel of Trilogy while in Dark Crystal, the Garthim killed the Gelflings and even SkekSil the Chamberlain killed Rian and Deet that Jen and Kira remain the only Gelflings in the movie.

The actors are very great that they play the characters from Star Wars(especially in Live Action) and Dark Crystal(especially Age of Resistance) than Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Stephen Garlick and Lisa Maxwell.

Emilia Clarke was the Bond between Dark Crystal and Star Wars that She reveals at the audience that Rian and Deet are Jen's parents while Ezra Bridger and Sabine Wren are Foster Parents of Ben Solo and because Anakin takes care of Ezra in Bad Batch After Revenge of the Sith.

The actors of Game of Thrones, including Nathalie Emmanuel, Ralph Ineson, Natalie Dormer and Lena Headey, while they were celebrating the 15th anniversary of Game of Thrones books since 1996, were the Key to play Gelflings in the prequel of Dark Crystal because they are more melodramatic and more great and more Shakespearean than the movie Dark Crystal.

In the Mandalorian, we see Ezra Bridger(played by Mena Massoud) and Hera Syndulla(played by Mary Elizabeth Winstead the wife of Ewan McGregor) made a drama argue about the future of Ben Solo and so Star Wars including Prequel Trilogy, Clone Wars, Rebels, Solo a star wars Story and the Mandalorian especially Live Action are more Shakespearean than original Trilogy of Star Wars and because those actors are more great than Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher while Clone Wars and Rebels are few cartoonist even the voice actors

Norse Rune Meanings: 5 Essential Runes for Witches

For centuries, Norse runes have been present in the life of Germanic peoples and pagan witches. There are diverse stories about how they came to be: some believe that it was Odin who created them after having an epiphany, some others say that these symbols pre-date humanity, and from these derived many other theories and hypotheses. If you’re interested in reading further on runes, don’t miss out on our posts about Mythology and Background of Norse Runes and Havi, the Father Deity in Norse Mythology.

No matter which version you decide to take in, what everyone can agree on is that runes are an ancient endless source of knowledge that, like Tarot, can help us tap into the secrets of the Universe. Actually, the word “rune” has its origins in the Norse word runa, meaning “whisper” or “secret”1. Moreover, author Lisa Chamberlain adds that the etymology of the rowan tree also has its roots in the word runa, as this sacred and magical tree is known for providing protection.

Before they were used as a linguistic system in ancient Germanic culture, Norse runes ―also called the Futhark alphabet― were used as symbols of power. It is said that warrior Vikings would carve runes (or a runic formula) in their weapons and shields so as to attract their energy and welcome success in battle. Furthermore, in the sagas, runic inscriptions were presumed to aid in predicting the future, protection, and infusing an object or a person with health or good fortune. Other uses include incantations, spells, curses, divination, talismans, rune yoga, and more.

In this post, I’ll be diving a bit deeper into the magical aspect of runes, that is, I’ll be exploring which runes are somehow related to witchcraft, in what way they are important for practitioners, and how they can use them in their practice.

Gifu (also Gebo or Gytu)

This rune means “gift” and “generosity”. It represents the feeling of gratitude and joy when receiving an unexpected gift or blessing. Along those lines, it can be a message from the Divine. Moreover, Gifu can be interpreted as the sensation of discovering something unique and wholesome, as if saying “Eureka!” It is also said that this rune aids in boosting your natural talents (gifts) or in making hidden skills come to light. Whenever you want to attract something, Gifu is your go-to. If you’re just starting in your practice, this rune is perfect to help you find your way and your talents. It’s the cross that shows where to find the treasure on a map. You can draw Gifu on a piece of paper and stick it to the sole of your shoes (or even paint it on your feet) in a symbolic way of having it lead your spiritual path. You can also stick it to your mirror as a reminder to thank the Universe for all the good things it has provided you with.

Wunjo (also Wyn)

This is the rune of happiness and harmonic bliss. Tune into the power of Wunjo whenever you have a project that you need to go well, as this symbol is associated with a positive state of mind which will result in attracting a positive outcome in life. It also calls for happy relationships and a harmonious environment, assisting in making sure that everything runs smoothly and collaboratively. In its magical aspect, Wunjo helps you raise your vibration and be more attuned with the Universe and the Divine. Draw this rune on your body with your finger (or a pen, if you want) whenever you feel stressed, sad, or upset. Remember that if you let negative thoughts take over, you’re likely to manifest a negative outcome.

Algiz (also Elhaz)

This is, in my opinion, one of the most important runes for witches, as its name translates as “protection.” Not only does it deflect negative energy coming your way, it also raises your awareness about potential enemies. Algiz invites you to trust your intuition whenever you feel something feels off. Draw this rune on your veil with rosemary oil or your protective amulet for an extra boost. Alternatively, due to its glyph resembling a man holding his arms up pointing to the sky, this rune is also associated with the connection to the Divine. You can place this rune on your altar or carve it on your deities’ candles to represent your devotion to them and reinforce your bond with them. Author Lisa Chamberlain shares an important disclaimer about Algiz: not because this rune keeps you safe should you be neglectful in your practice or actions. This rune won’t prevent you from breaking your bones if you jump off a rooftop, it will only alert you about energies that’ll potentially cause you harm.

Ingwaz (also Inguz)

This rune is associated with Ing, also known as Freyr, god of fertility. Masculine sexuality and potency are also related to Ingwaz. In a holistic sense, this rune represents procreation and the birth of a new project or renewal of the self. Ingwaz will assure you that any venture you embark on has fruitful and successful results. After painful situations, this rune encourages relief and healing. Similar to The World card in Tarot, Ingwaz represents both completion and rebirth, bringing lots of positive energy for you to start a new cycle. Draw this rune in a piece of paper and stick it to the object or item related or associated with your project. For instance, if you’re trying to start a new business, you can put it on the cover of the notebook you write all your ideas in or in the folder where you store the financial records. This way, you will be welcoming blossoming energy for your business.

Othala (also Odal or Othel)

Othala is the final rune in the Futhark alphabet and it translates as “inheritance” or “heritage”. I decided to include it in the list as it represents an aspect that every witch should take into account: inherited traits and ancestral connection. This rune invites you to look within and reflect upon what behavioral patterns you’ve inherited from your ancestors. Even if those traits are positive or negative, it’s important that you observe them so you can get rid of what doesn’t serve you, in a spiritual sense, which in a way keeps you from reaching your highest potential. Alternatively, Othala signifies a past life or communication with ancestors. Place this rune on your altar, if you have one, or carve it on your ancestors’ candles or heirlooms so as to deepen your bond, connection, and means of conversation with them. You can also meditate with this rune to boost past life regressions.

Engaging in the art of runes can be wonderful and as insightful as Tarot. Regardless of which rune you decide to incorporate in your practice, don’t forget to focus on your intention. You can repeat an affirmation over and over while you draw or carve it so as to bind your intention to the symbol. I should warn you, though, that having them tattooed, to my knowledge, could be dangerous, as runes are so powerful that they may start to affect our lives, causing adrenaline rushes or making us feel lethargic. Just in case, I would suggest only drawing them on your body, like a temporary tattoo, and then retouching it when you need it.

Have you heard about these runes before? What other runes would you incorporate into your magical practice and how? Let us know in the comments!
