POTS magic masterpost
(Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome)
A collection of tips and suggestions from and for magic practitioners who have POTS!
*To be used in addition to proper medical care, medication and mundane efforts, not as a sole alternative.*
Salt + electrolytes:
As you take salt pills, say a spell or blessing.
Incorporate salt into general health, wellness, and energy spells.
Draw sigils on your salt shakers.
“I drink a lot of electrolytes, and Pedialyte to help with orthostatic issues, and I will cast over my drink much the same as I do for tea, coffee, water, etc. So any spellwork for drinks could easily apply to one's electrolytes or water.” (x)
Tips and tricks:
Ask for specific strength to your blood vessels and brain.
Draw sigils on your medication bottles and mobility devices.
Carry around a resilience sigil or a sigil to keep your heart rate and blood pressure at a more average level.
Do little enchantments on your compression stockings and put them on a windowsill to charge with solar energy.
“Keeping all of my ingredients in easy to reach spots has also been a big help, specifically places that are low to the ground and don't require me to do much standing or walking around.” (x)
“When using counter maneuvers for POTS, visualize yourself being grounded & connected to the earth.” (x)
“I find time in nature also tends to ground me better, which can help if stress is a trigger for POTS.” (x)
“Pray to Apollon and Artemis for help at the start and end of the day. Again, this doesn't replace medical treatment, but it can certainly offer a lot of comfort, especially in the middle of a flare-up. For me, stress is a major trigger of my POTS, and I find that praying to my deities makes me calm down much faster, thereby allowing the flare-up to be a bit shorter.” (x)
Correspondences:
“Keeping a lot of bloodstone and rose quartz around has been helpful to me.” (x)
“As far as wandwork correspondences go, I like to use my mangrove wand for POTS-related work, bc of its unique adaptations to a salty environment. (Mangrove has a lot of health correspondences for me, but POTS and menstruation related issues are the two biggest.) Aspen, bloodwood, ebony, lignum vitae, redheart, and willow also have various health-related meanings for me, so I sometimes use those too.” (x)
Sigils:
Balance my blood pressure
My blood pressure is a healthy level
My heart rate stays average
Ease my dizziness
Ease my lightheadedness
I remain conscious
People respect my diagnosis

witch hat atelier is so beautiful and kind and lovely and i have so so much respect and admiration for shirahama kamome for a million reasons. which includes the fact that she basically said "fuck you" to figuring out a plumbing system and replaced it with a black hole to vacuum up shit and piss

Me, sitting in my overstuffed chair reading 300 year old court records by candlelight like the dramatic bitch I am the minute the temperature dips below 70: Abigail Hobbs is the Bhad Bhabie of the 17th century. Swag impeccable. You would do well in this time period my freaky little goth child

Kotake hummed happily and sipped her tea. “Are you one of our apprentices from... I believe you’re displaced in time or space somehow, aren’t you? Link opened his mouth and had to force himself to close it, swallowing hard. He cleared his throat and shook himself before he managed any words at all. How did she know ? How much did she know? It made him nauseous to even think of it ; nauseous, and on the edge of hysteria that she'd guess him her apprentice . What did his magic look like to her that she thought that? “I never would’ve dreamed...” he breathed; he'd rather die. “I knew of you and your sister, but that’s all. It’s an honour to meet you.”
In which Time gets help from the last people he expected when Legend gets kidnapped. (Or, the most stressful tea party he never would have imagined.)
Quote from my Linked Universe fic, Skin & Gold

So toady's prompt for Amphibuary 2024 was "common" and my take on the topic was how frogs along with cats and snakes are commonly depicted as familiars for witches. These three best friends are taking the day off and enjoying an nice cup of tea/coffee at their favorite cafe.

Witch Tip
Creating a simmer pot will cleanse your home! (And make it smell super good!)
Just put some water in a pot on the stove, bring it to a simmer, and use different herbs and things that align with your intentions and enjoy the cleansing and the smell!
I like to use rosemary, cinnamon, basil and others depending on the intention!
Happy crafting!

So I'm sitting here smoking pot in my big comfy sweater and feeling the fall vibe of the crisp cool air when I decide to do a little magick.
Every time I take a breath in with my vape I inhale blessings, and exhale the negativity. Then if I cough I knew I needed it.
Lol I know this is not new. But it made me smile. 😉
