Getting Back Into Your Practice

Sometimes life is shitty and your spiritual practice doesn't take priority. Thats okay. Here are some tips for how to get back into your practice once you're feeling up for it.

Cleanse and Clean Your Space This is defiantly the first think you should focus your energy on. This can take as long as needed and as intensive as you want or feel is needed. Spiritual and physically cleanse your space. Pick up items, open windows and start your cleansing method of choice.

Redo Wards and Protections Once you've cleansed its important to redo your protection. Cleanse to get rid of, protect to keep it away. Even if nothing has *hit* your protections and wards, its important to keep up to date on them being energized.

Keep Actives Low on Spoons Now that you've done the basics, stick to low spoon actives and slowly build from there. Even if you feel super energized and ready to get into it- you want to take things slow. This'll help you from losing steam..

Slowly Add Back In Your Daily Practice This is totally unique person to person, but dont expect to be back into your multi step daily routine right away. Add in each step one at a time, or slowly so you wont feel overwhelmed.

Come Up with a Ritual Youre EXCITED About You want to focus on the parts of witchcraft you love. Do something you've always wanted to try, something you always love doing, or anything that will make you excited for the working.

Pick a New Topic, Not an Older One Getting into your practice and going to an older topic might feel disheartening. Pick a new topic like astrology, plants, or an aspect of witchcraft you havent gotten too into before. Then go back to the older topic you left on.

Do Some Divination on What You Need Right Now Spend time with your spirit team, deities or ancestors and figure out what you should be focusing in on right now. Maybe you need more rest, maybe theres a ritual they want you to work on.

Remember You Dont Have To Do Magic Daily Dont put too much stress into doing something every single day. Take breaks. Youre still a witch.

I hope these helped. Remember to take things slow and dont let the pressure of getting back into it weigh you down. Magic is suppose to help not hinder.

Very true

Even if you can’t hear your deities, they hear you

Even if you can’t see your deities, they see you

Even if you can’t feel your deities, they’re there and they love you

the more time you spend in fandom spaces the more you realize a lot of drama in those communities is less based around the fact that people in fandom are inherently combative or dramatic and more around the fact that there are like, two or three people who jump from community to community starting shit wherever they go and are responsible for like 60% of all discourse

Praise to you, oh humble and most gracious Lady Hestia.

Litany to Hestia

Bright-veiled Hestia, heart of the happy home, goddess

who binds together a family, who strengthens

a city, the household is your temple,

the hearthfire your altar and your namesake. Hestia,

I praise and honor you, I thank you for your blessings.

Hestia, wise one who oversees the family feast,

who guides the making and the breaking of bread,

to whom offerings are made at simple meal

or sumptuous banquet, Hestia of the oven-fire,

I praise and honor you, I thank you for your blessings.

Hestia, gentle-hearted daughter of Kronos

and mother Rhea, first-born and last-born child

of Titans, dear sister of thundering Zeus

who gave to you a place of honor evermore,

I praise and honor you, I thank you for your blessings.

Hestia who sits ever at the center of things,

who tends the flickering flame of sacrifice

with patience and with care, who receives the first

and the best portion of all due offerings,

I praise and honor you, I thank you for your blessings.

My first harvest is small, but that's how it is with the first few harvests! I'm still super proud of what we have grown and all we have accomplished!

Sorry for the poor quality pics, I don't have the best camera. Don't worry, I'm getting a brand new phone soon!

-The Man The Universe Loved-

Once upon a time, there lived a boy whose childhood was marred by the darkness that lurked within his home. The ones he loved, his dear family, suffered silently at the hands of who should have protected them, his father. He witnessed their pain, but wastoo young to intervene, his heart shattered into countless pieces, forever scarred by the shadows that loomed over his formative years.

As the boy grew into a man, he longed for love and affection, seeking solace in the embrace of others. Yet, fate seemed unkind, for the women he encountered saw him as nothing more than a pawn in their games of petty narcissistic pleasure. They took advantage of his kind heart, breaking it into even smaller fragments, leaving him wounded and disillusioned.

Amidst the wreckage of his shattered dreams, the man sought refuge beneath the star-studded sky. In the calm embrace of night, he poured out his heart to the universe, yearning for a love that would help him transcend the pain he had endured, a balm for his loneliness. His words were filled with longing and despair, hoping against hope that the vastness of the cosmos would hear his plea. But the universe remained silent, seemingly indifferent to his cries.

Days turned into months, and months into years. The man's desperation grew, his heart aching for the love he believed he deserved. But it was precisely in this desperation that ensured the universe's silence. For the universe, in her infinite wisdom, wanted him to let go of control and surrender to the flow of life. The universe had been listening all those years, captivated by the depth of his emotions and the sincerity of his heart.

And so, in a moment of surrender, the man released his grip on his desperate search for love. He let go of his need to control the outcome, allowing whatever would happen to happen. In his surrender, he found a newfound peace within himself, a gentle acceptance of his own worthiness, even if he were to be alone.

As if in response to his newfound acceptance, the universe proved had been listening all along. And now, with the man's heart open and his spirit at ease, the universe decided to enact her plan. She had long since sent forth a fragment of her own essence, a being born into human form, to walk alongside the man but has separated them by many miles. This fragment of the universe, radiant and ethereal, had chosen to embody love itself, for she too had fallen deeply in love with the man.

As the fragment descended upon the mortal realm, the deities, demons, dragons, and astral beings that resided in realms beyond human perception sensed the cosmic flux. Recognizing the purity and power of the fragment, they conspired to help the man and the fragment of the universe find each other.

Guided by the celestial forces that watched over them, the man's path was destined to align with that of the fragment. The deities whispered in his ear, guiding him towards the fragment's presence. The demons, with a change of heart, removed obstacles that had once hindered his journey. The dragons soared through the skies, their fiery breath illuminating the path, while the astral beings showered blessings upon the man.

The fragment was no beacon of confidence, her loving compassionate nature and naivety of human cruelty allowed her to be taken advantage of by those who she thought would be there for her. Those people took and took until she felt carved out, and when another offered her sanctuary, they only tried to become her. The fragment was so hurt and confused, a lost soul, scared and naive to the complexities of the world she lived in. Her only solace being the star-skinned king that sought to guide her throughout time and space.

In a twist of fate, the man crossed paths with the fragment, the star-skinned king connecting them in her deepest moment of despair. The man recognized the fear and pain in her voice, recognizing the suffering that mirrored his own. In that instant, their souls intertwined, finding solace and understanding in each other's embrace.

The man, though broken and scarred, became the beacon of strength that the fragment desperately needed. He and the star-skinned king whisked her to safety and shielded her from the darkness that threatened to consume her, nurturing her fragile spirit with tenderness and compassion. In turn, the fragment’s innocence and compassion sparked a flame within the man's heart, reigniting his capacity to love and trust.

Finally, the man found solace within the fragment's arms, and she discovered a love unlike any she had ever known. Their connection, forged through shared suffering, brought them the profound understanding and acceptance they had craved. In this union, they both found the strength to rise above their past and embrace a future bathed in the light of their love.

Together, they embarked on a journey of discovery and transformation. Their love bloomed amidst the ruins of their past, transcending the wounds inflicted upon them. The fragment of the universe, born into human form, shared her cosmic wisdom with the man, guiding him towards healing and growth, spreading prosperity and vitality to whoever showed her kindness. And in return, the man's unwavering love and devotion ignited the fragment's divine essence, allowing her to shine brilliantly. This pleased the star-skinned king, who now adored both the fragment and the man, with whom he had spent so much time.

And so, the man, the star-skinned king, and the fragment of the universe embraced their cosmic love, forever intertwined in a bond that surpassed mortal understanding.

Their love became a beacon of hope and inspiration, a testament to the vastness of the universe's capacity for love. As they walked hand in hand, the deities, demons, dragons, and other beings continued to shower them with their blessings, for they knew that this union was a gift to the world, a reminder that the Universe's Love walked among mortals in the flesh, and one day when that mortal vessel passed away, the Universe Herself would shower blessings beyond imagination on those that aided her in her time as a mortal.

Tw grooming/unalive/self harm mentions

Anyways

Here to discuss two of my groomers from the past

Aka MiloIsHere on discord idk what their user is here on Tumblr and Unicornlilac

Yes these are old things

But still I'm going to talk abt

Yes I heard Unicornlilac had unalived themselves idk how long ago

Ppl also tend to forget nsfw rps with minors is low-key grooming if they didn't consent to it, or can lead the adult to bride the minor to do nsfw rps Abt themselves, which unicornlilac did at one point to me

Info under the cut

Idc if I get attacked by my currently alive groomer or his pals, either I'll argue with or ignore yall

Also if u want, y'all can reblog and share

But for unicornlilac:

They were in their 20s, I think like 22 maybe

I was 16, they sexualized my OCs, one basically a child, the ogs know my boy Strawco, yes, him and Gearshift did a ton of the deed bc it's what they pressured to do, especially Ezy when I first made him, Ezy was also sexualized by them, with several Bendy clones at once

There's also them asking me out, I was 15 just turned 16, they kept implying to date, low-key even mentioning having sex and meeting up irl

Ofc I turned that down, but they did make jokes abt how we would do it bc as most of u know, I'm trans, so they were trying to talk abt how we'd do it and pointing out how I didn't have a dick

They even mentioned to me how they dated someone who would have been my age at the time (16) but they broke up 2 years prior

Making that person 14 years old, idk their story tho or how long unicornlilac was with them, just might be before they turned 14 for all I know, I can't provide evidence for this bc unicorn deleted everything and I had blocked them prior to that

For Milo (who I have evidence for):

Tons of NSFW rp from them, didn't really talk much outside of the NSFW rp, they never asked if I was ok with the rp, just went ahead and did it, I only went with it bc I was a ppl pleasing traumatized wreck that broke my own boundaries for it, (y'all would know I wasnt fond of my characters being referred to suggestively if y'all remember when I was upset with ppl calling Ezy a man whore, stuff like "hot" or "handsome/pretty" was fine tho), remember ppl, if they don't say yes, that doesn't mean it's not a no, it's a no until they say yes, I was 16 at the time, they were 17 going to be 18, and continued when they turned 18, i believe Milo is abt 19/20 now

Sexualized Ezy (only time they rped was for sexual rps between him and Don), had a drowning kink, I only figure out bc they did a water demon rp with their bendy and mine on a non NSFW channels in a server, only stopping when I said my boy doesn't need to breathe and is Aroace so if that's a turn off so they stopped so fast, weird if that's just a reg rp

Plus I've heard they did this type of rp many ppl, not just me, even ones that included choking and cutting

Lied about their age in different servers and dms to do nsfw rp

So if he claimed to be 18+ before/around the time of May, 2021

U were lied to

Many adults were lied to abt their age just to do nsfw rps

Got upset when someone didn't include their bendy in a work with different Bendys and my Ezy, which was a surprise gift we didn't know abt

And got upset when they weren't in it and seem to take pride in being messed up in the image above, didn't feel guilty until I pointed out that's not something to be proud of

I know they contacted the artist abt it, idk how they did but for all I know it probably came off as pretty rude

Only apologized to me to keep shipping, if I hadn't mentioned what I did, they probably would have continued abt the shipping rather than a really apology I low-key eventually pressured but still didn't seem sincere tbh and took a "I mess everything up" approach

This was stuff on my old phone I got from Google photos, when they took a joke too seriously there and started to guilt me for it, yes I did spiral so I know I over apologized but they didn't say they forgave me until this last message and told me to not make it into a self blame thing on my own server that everyone knew was a joke, and when asked not to make that joke I apologize and we dropped it, the only one that escalated was Milo

Doesn't ask if I'm up to rp, expects me to comply

When ignored

Tries again

The way they questioned the ban from my server seems pretty passive aggressive, probably nothing big but included anyways

Also this is old from my old discord acc

He asked what bbc was, I made something up tbh I didn't know what it meant back then

Don't know why he turned it on me

Um why???

When exposed for all this one someone else's server he started angrily (or so I'm told) questioning who did it and had threatened to self harm over it, I heard from ppl it was a way they guilted ppl to listen to them

I wasn't the only one he groomed but I'll leave it up to the ppl who were victims to step up if they see this post

Someone said "Are you really so stupid to think that Africa has the same technological advances as us? If they did they would probably have clean water and not live in houses made of sticks and mud. Get over yourself and stop being so ignorant."..... Below is a tiny collection of images of the Africa they refuse to show you..

ches

I’m sorry you’ve been made to believe that the whole of Africa is poor, I really am..
