Web of Fate Spell Template/Framework 🕷️

I was suddenly overcome with the urge to post about the great ally that Spider is in magic (perhaps I'm being nudged by Spider) and share a framework for spells that I came up with about 2 years ago. I have only done a couple spells with this method because it takes time but they have proven to be some of the most effective spells I've ever done. It combines sympathetic magic, the concept of energy cords, and spirit work.

If you like fiber art and crafting like me, you might find this process fun! This (literal) spell framework is useful for when you need specificity and don't want to or can't do direct energy work. For example, perhaps you have a job where one person or one project is causing issues, or you want a particular aspect of your life to grow a certain way, or you're 3rd on a wait list for a course you need, etc. You could use energy threads or other energy work directly, but maybe your energy system isn't doing so great or it takes too much out of you. This might be a helpful spell template for you.

You will need:

- spinnable fiber or yarn; ideally you will have at least 2 colors (but this number may change depending on how many factors/ppl/etc you need to specify in the spell)

- a spindle or spinning wheel or crochet hook

- 2 circular shapes of different sizes - I use 2 very different sized embroidery hoops, but a flexible switch or twig tied in a circular shape (x2) will do nicely or some thick wire. It just needs to be able to keep its shape with handling. The smaller circle should be able to fit inside the larger one with quite a bit of room between them - enough that you can use yarn to connect them so that it looks like rays are connecting them (like the base structure an orb weaver spider starts with before starting their spiral). A keyring can work well for the smaller circle too.

To illustrate this framework, let's say you're on a team and one of your coworkers is neglecting their responsibilities. You or others have talked to them about it, but they just blow you off and this has been a recurring theme.

1) Call upon Spider to help you in your endeavor, and talk about all the great things Spider is known for that makes an alliance so desirable. Tell Spider exactly the outcome you want including closing loopholes and basic backfire prevention, and that you will give an offering proportional to what you are asking. I recommend giving a couple options to choose from and be open to suggestions to find an agreement.

2) Spin some yarn or crochet the number of necessary chains in chosen colors. As you spin/crochet, focus on what each will represent. In the above example you could use one length of yarn/chain in a color you associate with discord to represent the problem teammate, and a color you associate with harmony and teamwork for the rest of the members on your team.

3) Determine what the small and large rings will represent. Typically I assign the smaller one to be the specific situation, and the larger ring to be more of a microcosm or a zoomed in snapshot of the great web of reality. In this example, the larger ring could represent your department/etc and the smaller could represent the project you're working on.

4) Attach each chain or cut length of yarn to the large and small rings so that the smaller is suspended roughly in the center of the larger. As you attach them, repeat what each yarn/chain represents. I recommend attaching the first at the top, second at the bottom, third at the left, fourth at the right, and so on. It is easier to balance how it's suspended this way.

5) Do something to the chain(s)/yarn(s) you wish to affect. You can cut cord(s), anoint the strand(s) with an oil infused with an herb (I don't recommend straight essential oils) corresponding to your desired outcome, connect the strand(s) to others, pass the specific strand(s) through incense, etc. In this example, you could anoint the problem teammate's strand with chili oil to light a fire under their ass, or sprinkle ground allspice on it to promote inspiration pertaining to the project, etc. As you do this, reiterate the desired outcome to Spider.

6) Place the "web" on your altar or other respected space where you place spells to do their work over time.

This can work for lots of things that have multiple factors/individuals (ideally at least 3) - manipulating planetary energies in your life, influencing interpersonal relationships, shifting the odds in opportunities, etc.

A couple notes: If you kill spiders, Spider is not likely to work with you well. Consider this carefully before calling upon the spirit. If you are spinning yarn (I have found this to be more powerful when working with Spider, but it is not necessary), try to make it relatively thin. 2 ply yarn is plenty, and even singles could work for these purposes, I didn't even set the twist in mine. You likely won't need all that much fiber. I used a bit of sample wool for one of my targets. If you don't spin and don't want to learn, crocheting some chains will work nicely. The chain "stitch" is the simplest in crochet. The main point of this manual part is connecting to Spider through the process and focusing on what the chain/yarn specifically represents. You can also do this over multiple days and call Spider each time you work on it, or just at the final assembly stage.

While this spell can take more manual effort than some others, I find that I'm less drained afterwards compared to, say, energy work or longer trips crossing the hedge and I still get good results even with relatively big objectives.

most people ship Starscream with a reader who is just meek and one massive fawn response to being kidnapped, can i ask instead that once on the ship reader is just a MENACE? (doesnt matter who or how theyre kidnapped, theyre there now) Reader just antagonizes /everyone/ and likes to antagonistically flirt with Star? cus thats way more fun <3 (thinking of IDW/G1 but really any version of him works)

G1 Starscream is a shit, so I thought he would be the perfect match. Two petty bitches = EVERYONE else gonna suffer.

The first few days on the ship was nothing but screaming. Starscream assured them that once you had been tamed, you would stop that....

You did not stop.

The actual kidnapping had been quiet, making starscream think he picked the perfect little hostage to hold over the autobots. You would clearly cower in what ever box they kept you in, and beg to be released. Maybe even weep a little. Megatron would praise him for a job well done, and let his guard down a bit more.

You were not, however, the perfect docile hostage. You were just in shock. Once that faded away you decided to make it very clear you were unhappy about the situation. Starscream had entered the room, followed by Megatron, boasting on the fact he had captured an autobot's pet. You were mid escape, perched on the edge of the box he stuffed you in. There was silence, starring. Then you jumped on him with a screech. Clinging against the seekers metal, kicking, pounding and biting. Eventually, soundwave peeled you off him and put something heavy over the box to avoid that again.

So you started screaming. Insults peppered within the highest pitch you could reach. Your throat went raw, but it was worth watching them flinch and cover their audials. When you were hungry, you screamed, when you were woken up by their stomping around, you screamed. When they filmed a video, threatening the autobots with your well being, you were screaming in the background.

The only one you were quiet around was Megatron. His threats just felt *sincere* in the graphic detail he would give when telling you what he would do if you did not shut your trap.

When the screaming began to hurt too much, you turned to insults. Calling Megatron Bucket-head while on that hostage call had earned a laugh from the autobots and a fusion cannon to the face. Soundwave didn't know how to respond to you calling him the Dj wanna be. Starscream hurled back insult after insult till it was tit for tat. The only positive was that he wasn't hard to look at. Being around the cons more, you found them to be particular about their looks, almost as much as Sunstreaker.

Eventually you were banished to his quarters and his sole responsibility till the autobots gave them what they wanted. He sat on his berth, polishing his plating. Nothing else to do. He fed you, he let you run around (be chased by ravage) for exercise.

"Need a hand pretty boy?"

He pauses, head shooting up and fixing you with a glare, "What was that squishy?"

You grin, leaning against the glass of your temporary home. Making a vulgar gesture you repeat yourself, "Need a hand pretty boy? Looks like you could use someone to give you a few good stokes."

Starscream throws down the cloth and stands, marching over to you again, "Mind your tongue *welp*."

"Oh I think I would rather *waggle* it."

The Decepticon doesn't know how to respond to this. Your screaming he could take until he locked you in a closet till you tired out. Your insults he would just shoot back. This? He was stumped.

"Come on pretty bird, you don't want to chat?"

"Careful *pest*." Starscream hisses, "Don't make me silence you."

"Oh? Think you got something big enough to silence me?"

The autobots aren't surprised when you are returned only a couple days after being taken. But they enjoy bringing you along on future missions when Starscream is sighted.

I need Lucien to go from “If I offer you the moon on a string, will you give me a kiss, too?”

to “What do you want, Elain? You want the sun? Just say the word and I’ll throw a rope around it and pull it down. I’ll get you the sun, Elain.”

So this was back in 2017. It's been 7 years and I STILL have that lavender vodka solution (I did add a little more vodka in the interim, removed the years old lavender and added a little dried recently, but not nearly as much lavender or vodka as the first time).

I've also found that it can be used as a nice lil offering. It can depend on the spirit/entity, tho, so I just suggest it as an option and respond accordingly to the answer.

Low spoon sleep magick

In other news, a very low energy solid way of helping with sleep and nightmares:

Get your hands on either lavender* or amethyst

Make sure they have enough energy to do some magic (ie charge them and/or give them offerings - moonlight, incense, tobacco, etc)

Call to the essence/spirit of the lavender or amethyst

Humbly ask for its aid in protection from nightmares and restful sleep

Place near bed

TaDAH!

Thank it the next morning, provide an offering, and charge to prepare for next use

*A nice way to preserve lavender and its properties is to get a bunch when you can, pull it apart and grind/wring it a bit to release oils, put it in a bottle/sealable container, poor vodka on that shit so it covers the plant material, keep it in a dark coolish place for a couple months and dab the lavender infused vodka on your wrists for some nice aromatherapy throughout the night~ (if you’re allergic to lavender, obviously this won’t work well for you)

If you can prepare it when you have more spoons, it’s very low energy and easy to use for a long time afterward when you want to apply it.

I made my solution with just the vodka from a mini liquor bottle and it’s been lasting quite a while and works wonders*

Okay I lied here are some more thoughts on the mlb movie including some actual criticism.

I was just listening to the soundtrack a little and I feel like? A lot of ~character~ is injected into the songs. I mean, it's a musical, it's how they work, characters burst into song when they cant hold back how they're feeling / what they're thinking anymore. But I feel like people who are calling the movie soulless must have just tuned the songs out when they came up, because without them yea, it kinda feels like its just going through the motions. But... It's a movie, so they cant have five million scenes of Mari being awkward, especially since they need her to outgrow it bc ~character development~ so these bits go into her intro song + her first outing as Ladybug. It's obviously stated in Chat's number that he was high off the freedom of being Chat Noir, which explains his cockier attitude towards Ladybug (which is? Not too unlike their dynamic in Origins pt 1 tbh, anyway).

(A detail I love is how in "You Are Ladybug", Marinette's whole point is that when things get rough she "makes excuses", which is a level of self awareness that I don't recall her having to that degree in the early show. At least in season 1, she'd always ALMOST do the things she wanted to, only to stop and second guess herself. I love the interpretation that it isnt just shyness or being frazzled and nervous in front of her crush, like the fandom interpreted, it's her ACTIVELY being aware that she's self sabotaging bc she's afraid of taking chances. It's such a fun little spin on her actions in the show. )

Like. It's all there??? It's in the movie???

Anyway.

Wanna see an ACTUAL criticism? What some songs imply just isn't represented as well visually, which makes the movie more confusing. Most notably Marinette's Sad Song after Adrien turns her down. If you actually listen to what she's saying, it feels like they skipped a few scenes, lol.

Like, listen to it, it's like she's saying she - as Marinette - isn't enough, just being the silly shy girl that she is. This is right after Chat confesses to be falling for Ladybug, but Adrien turns Marinette down. The song is implying that Mari went from not thinking she could be Ladybug to gaining confidence in herself (she's kicking butt as Ladybug, she's overcoming her shyness/awkwardness and making friends, she even managed to ask Adrien out, so its not like the old fic trope in which Mari always had a low self esteem and always considered LB to be perfect, she's getting better as a whole), to only now second guessing it all. Is only Ladybug, her more heroic, responsible side, the one people (boys, "both" of them) like? Is being "just" her softer, klutzier, dreamer self not enough?

It ofc leads into the final fight against Hawkmoth, and how Marinette is so down about it that she now thinks she NEEDS Ladybug to win. She still tries to save Adrien on her own with a last nudge from Tikki, and tho it isn't enough to keep Hawkmoth from getting to him, it's enough for herself. Like, she very clearly Has An Arc in the movie.

The thing is, it can get a little fuzzy because we don't really see this contrast between Ladybug's self assuredness and the parts of herself that Marinette prefers to identify with as a civilian, not if you haven't watched the show. The montage just skips throughout their "pound it!"s without lingering on her resourcefulness, her confidence, and how different Ladybug feels from Marinette. Like, it's there, but only superficially, and its hard to notice it unless you have the backstory from the show to back you up.

It's the same issue with Adrien's feelings towards Marinette, we know from the montage that Mari is special to him, we only ever see him open himself up about Emilie to her (when Nino is Right There and actively letting him know he can talk to him if Adrien wants to), and the end credits song (that seems to match the reveal in both melody and lyrics) basically states what we do know - that Mari is aware that Adrien is Chat Noir and was waiting for the right moment to tell him - and what we DON'T, which is that Adrien always felt a degree of familiarity and a special bond with Mari, possibly bc subconsciously he always knew (which actually calls back surprisingly well to the cut Wall Between Us number and how that poor catboy was SO confused). So he was and wasn't surprised at the same time bc OF COURSE it was her, of course the girls who held his heart on both sides of the mask were one and the same. Ergo the smiling through the tears.

But we don't SEE that, unless you take what the music numbers are saying AND you have watched the first season of the show (I am once again reminding folks that the movie was conceptualized during the season 1 hiatus). You don't SEE Adrien go from a slightly weirded out stranger to someone fondly amused at Mari's antics to blushing and shuffling awkwardly when their fingers touch when playing videogames. You don't see how LB takes control and appears to be a natural leader, heck, the movie does a better job with Ladynoir but it STILL doesn't match how it feels to watch it knowing things like Chat straight up being willing to die for Ladybug in Timebreaker or knowing they kiss once in Dark Cupid or how Chat keeps himself from peeking at who LB is in Lady Wifi. You don't have the Adrienette side of the square to explain some of those lyrics away and the Ladynoir Song(tm) or even the sparring scene, with all the implicit trust they gives us, don't hit as hard as they do with the proper context.

Some of it (Ladynoir) can be excused by it being a movie and having a much more limited runtime to tell a story, but others (Adrienette) just NEEDED a little bit more. Even if it was just one more scene showing how their civilian relationship has ALSO evolved.

That said, it makes me wonder, it's been ages but I loosely remember being told that the movie was supposed to show the origins of Ladybug and Chat Noir back in the day. I wonder if the things we see changed between series and movie (the power ups for instance, details like Nino always having a crush on Alya) weren't originally, and the movie was originally going to be released as both the beginning and the end of season 1, showing how LB and Chat met, revealing Gabriel as Hawkmoth, and concluding the love square shenanigans and giving us a reveal before setting up a season 2 in that post The End scene.

Mostly bc I've been watching season 1 again and if you take Origins out and ignore the smaller incongruencies as just edits reworked into the base story later in order separate the movieverse from the showverse as a way for Zag and Astruc to find a compromise... I'm using an old friend's personalized episode timeline instead of just the release/production order and you can SEE the development there. It's subtle but it exists, and it works surprisingly well.

If you look at it this way, the movie wouldn't need to show things like Adrien's modeling career and Gabriel's micromanaging (which in season 1 STILL works with movie Gabriel, especially knowing he gets obsessed to the point of neglecting his personal hygiene. He's distant and cold but not aggressive), so the show could explore that. The show could set up Adrienette and Ladynoir (and the other subtler sides of the square)'s base dynamics so the movie could do its thing by flipping the love square (had it had more time to properly show the Adrienette side. as I said above, its an actual issue with the movie) and resolving the tension. Even the earphones symbolism would hit harder knowing Adrien went through a whole season without them, only to falter and fall back into using them after LB rejects him.

Idk, I'm too fond of Origins to ever delete it from my heart, but I think its a fascinating concept to think about.
