Shortly before Darkening Day—the holy day in my tradition that celebrates the Winter Solstice—I discovered what may be the most beautiful stone I've ever found during a river offering.

I was initially drawn to it purely for its size and smoothness, thinking it must be a basalt stone, which are very common in local waterways. However, looking at it later, I was floored to realize that it's not actually a solid black rock, but a darkly translucent crystal filled with patterns. From what I can tell, it's a specimen of agate.

One of the central tools I use in my practice is the Stroking Stone, which I utilize for physical healing. Traditionally, a Stroking Stone should be quartz-bearing and naturally smoothed by water, and as agate is a polymorph of quartz, and this stone was found directly in moving water, those parameters line up perfectly. What's more, though, the way to consecrate a Stroking Stone involves blessing it during the Sabbatical Ceremony of Darkening Day, which is strongly associated with both water and healing. Finding this just days before the one day of the year during which I can consecrate such a tool felt very auspicious to me.

I am excited to get to know this amazing stone and build magical rapport with it over time.

Various Uses for Fossils in Magic from Wisht Waters by Gemma Gary

"Sea fossils, as well a guarding against drowning, had other protective uses. The fossils of sea urchins, or Echinoids, were employed for a variety of protections. Upon these fossils, one might find a star-like pattern, very reminiscent of the 'daisy-wheels', which one might find inscribed into the timbers and masonry of ancient buildings, most likely for apotropaic purposes. Their folk names include shepherd's crowns, thunder stones and fairy loaves. They protected against thunder, evil spirits and witches, prevented milk turning sour, and in common with other fossil amulets, they sweated in the presence of poison. As 'fairy loaves' they might be used to ward off supernatural interference from the baking process, and to ensure an abundance of bread."

pg. 104

"Belemnite fossils, from an extinct squid-like creature, were known as thunderbolts, and were thus kept as charms to protect against lightning. Once believed to be the tongues of ancient serpents, fossilised shark teeth were one of the fossil amulets against poison"

pg. 104

"Rings of stone, formed from the fossilised stems of the sea-lily were known as St Cuthbert's Beads, as were worn as amulets against evil influences."

pg. 105

"The 'Devil's Toenail' fossils were carried as charms against rheumatic pain, and they were powdered to be used in the treatment of soreness of the back in horses."

pg. 107

"Various accoutrements of the sea witch's divinatory work may be seen in the Museum of Witchcraft. Here we find that belemnites were employed by a Newlyn sea witch named Nancy. She would read the fall of her 'sea stones' to make predictions for fishermen. Perhaps their traditional association with lightning gave belemnites the virtue to make predictions regarding storms and changes in the weather?"

pg. 108

[...] There have been many ways to bless, consecrate and 'sain' water, thus rendering it more potent and useful within various rites and magical operations. This might be achieved by steeping or immersing charmed items within the water, or else allowing water to flow or be poured over such an item. These may include charm-stones, fossils, flints, or the metals gold and silver.

pgs. 115-116

"Ammonite fossils were also employed as charm stones to cure cattle in 17th century Scotland. They were known as 'cramp stones' because cattle afflicted with cramp would be treated by being bathed in water in which a 'cramp stone' had been steeped for a number of hours."

pg. 122

here's some witch thing to do for Mabon (mah-bawn) (also know as the Autumn Equinox, or Pagan Thanksgiving) since its saturday!

• make stew to celebrate the gifts (aka crops) that the earth has given us (even better if it has squash in it)

• eat stuff with apples and squash!

• set out an offering for the wildlife

• eat pomegranate in honor (idk the right word to use there) of Persephony

• relock your mirrors, recharge your wards, cleanse stuff, ect.

• journal what you've done this year so far

• set your home up for winter

and here something bigger that I would suggest doing is taking a healing bath.

put some healing herbs in your bath and corresponding crystals and candles (the candles and crystals are optional). here's a list of herbs im going to use: dried rosemary, apple slices, bay leaves, thyme, dried rose pedals, spearmint leaves, himalayan pink salt, blackberries, and cucumber. the crystals im using: clear quartz, rose quartz, moonstone, aquamarine, and jasper. and im going to use some ocean water, too (if you have an ocean near you, you can use ocean water). and here are the candles im using and the meaning that im using that color for:

white (peace, purity, spiritual)

blue (calmness)

pink (emotional healing, self love)

green (physical healing)

yellow (comfort, joy)

also, if you want to use different herbs and crystals then me visit pinecone pub on the ✨ interwebs ✨ and click the get started button and type in 'heal' or ' healing' (of course with out the 's) in the search and a list of stuff would come up (herbs and crystals) that you can put in your healing bath.

Mabon simmer pot:

what you'll need:

• an orange

• rosemary (dried or fresh)

• an apple

• cinnamon sticks

• rose pedals (dried or fresh)

how to:

(1. cut up your orange and apple into slices.

(2. start heating up a pot of water on a stove

(3. add in your orange slices, apple, rose pedals, rosemary, and cinnamon sticks.

(4. let simmer.

and a little extra tip for this coming autumn, the stuff that makes up pumpkin spice, all of those herds can be used for protection. so if you like pumpkin spice, there's a little excuse to eat more stuff with pumpkin spice in it.

What to do when you feel drained of mana?

(Step 8 is a reference to how mages in Fate/stay night replenish their mana.)

Even the most radiant souls and strongest witches find themselves drained of mana, their inner flame flickering weakly against the winds of exhaustion. If you feel depleted, as if the sacred energy within you has dimmed, do not despair. There are ways to rekindle your magic and realign with the forces that sustain you.

1. Commune with the elements

Your essence is woven from the same threads as the world around you. If your spirit feels empty, turn to the elements:

Water: Take a ritual bath infused with salt, herbs, or essential oils to cleanse your aura.

Fire: Light a candle and meditate on its flame, allowing its warmth to restore your strength.

Earth: Walk barefoot on sacred ground, whether it's a garden, forest, or even your own backyard.

Air: Breathe deeply, practicing rhythmic or meditative breathing to let divine energy flow back into you.

2. Absorb lunar and solar power

If the night calls to you, bask under the moonlight and let its silver glow replenish your spiritual core. If the sun is your ally, soak in its golden warmth, allowing its celestial fire to awaken your latent strength.

3. Drink from the wells of the arcane

Sometimes, power dims not from overuse but from a lack of inspiration. Read ancient texts, listen to enchanting music, or gaze upon mystical art. Let the wisdom of those who walked before you reignite your passion.

4. Indulge in sacred rest

A weary soul cannot conjure miracles. Wrap yourself in silken darkness and rest—true, undisturbed rest. Dream deeply, for dreams are portals to other realms where lost energy can be found and returned to you.

5. Draw from the love of spirits and kindred souls

Even a lone soul is never truly alone. Reach out to those who understand you, whether they be kindred spirits, familiars, or the deities you hold close to your heart. Allow their presence to weave a cocoon of comfort around you.

6. Perform a mana restoration ritual

If you feel utterly depleted, craft a personal ritual to reclaim your power. Burn sacred incense, whisper incantations of renewal, and surround yourself with talismans that resonate with your essence.

7. Banish the shadows that cling to you

Sometimes, the drain of mana is the mark of an unseen parasite—negative energy, envious gazes, or forgotten burdens. A simple cleansing spell, a salt bath, or the ringing of bells can cast them away. Release, and rise unburdened.

8. Spend time with your partner

For those bound by love, your partner can be a wellspring of healing energy. Hold their hand, feel the warmth of their embrace, and let their presence ground you. A moment of physical contact can recharge your soul. Love is its own kind of magic—one that thrives when given and received freely.

Remember: Your magic is never gone—it only ebbs and flows. Like the tides, it will return, stronger than before. Until then, be gentle with yourself, for even the most radiant souls and powerful witches must rest to rise again.

I like to imagine Mario tries to hide any smaller injuries from Peach because he doesn't want to bother her with things he can just get over himself. Meanwhile Luigi (along with co-conspirators like Toadsworth, Toad and Daisy) will immediately snitch on him to Peach any chance they get because they know she wants to help him and he loves getting help from her. Every once in a while they "just so happen to discuss" something a little too loud where they know Peach can overhear, so it doesn't get too obvious what they're doing. Sometimes they just tell her straight out.

Oh they would. 😏👌

And this is precisely what happened there too! Peach saying that she's heard about Mario's mild injury says a lot (thanks Luigi!). x3

Her healing wouldn't only occur in dire or grim scenarios. Often times, it would happen in calm and soft moments when everything feels warm and cozy, and such occasions would always be enjoyed equally by the princess and her sweet friend. 😌💞

[dunmeshistash]

Do you have any idea on where does it say that they use healing magic for torture? I'm 100% sure it's Marcille talking to Chilchuck when it happens but I can't remember when does she say it :(

every damn time.

every single time the seasons change, my immune system just taps out. minneapolis went from 50 degrees to a full-blown snowstorm overnight, and now i’m suffering the consequences. that being said, my very loving partner jett made me a hot healing potion—a chaotic mix of pantry staples that tastes like fire, salt, and regret, but actually works.

🌿 believing in magic doesn’t mean ignoring science—this brew is loaded with real medicinal benefits AND magical properties to help kick this cold’s ass.

✨ THE POTION RECIPE✨

hot water

medicinal purposes: keeps me hydrated, helps break up mucus, soothes the throat, and warms my insides so i don’t feel like a haunted corpse.

magical purposes: water is the element of healing, intuition, and flow. the ultimate energy conductor, enhances the properties of all the ingredients, transforms and carries intention. in this case? flushing all the sickness out of my body.

flaky salt

medicinal: helps with hydration and electrolyte balance. also lightly antibacterial, so it’s pulling out the nasties.

magical: purification and protection. when you add salt, you���re literally warding off negative energy—whether that’s bad vibes or the absolute plague in my sinuses.

black pepper

medicinal: clears congestion, antibacterial improves circulation, warms the body and helps the body absorb nutrients more effectively, aka aids digestion (important when i have the appetite of a victorian orphan).

magical: wards off negativity, removing bad energy, increases strength, and adds fire energy to burn away sickness. basically, an immune system bouncer.

crushed red chili pepper

medicinal: packed with capsaicin, which fights inflammation, opens up sinuses, helps circulation, and boosts immunity. makes me sweat out whatever demon is possessing my lungs.

magical: increases energy, speed, and power. protecting, banishing. this is an amplifier—it cranks up whatever intention i set for this potion. in this case? get better, fast.

honey

medicinal: soothes a sore throat, is naturally antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and boosts the immune system. straight-up liquid gold when you feel like death.

magical: prosperity, attraction, love, and healing. also, sweetens your words and energy, which is important when all i’ve been doing is whining about being sick.

lemon

medicinal: full of vitamin C, breaks up mucus, supports the immune system, and helps flush out toxins.

magical: purification, clarity, solar energy, and renewal. symbolically cutting through the illness (aka negativity) and making room for healing.

✨ OPTIONAL SUBSTITUTIONS OR ADDITIONS ✨

if you wanna boost the potion, here’s what to add:

ginger

medicinal: antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, helps with nausea, and gives the immune system a HARD reboot.

magical: fire energy, strength, and courage. it’s the magical equivalent of slamming an espresso.

garlic

medicinal: nature’s antibiotic, fights infections, and strengthens the immune system. (this is the OG medicine cabinet ingredient. vampires be gone!)

magical: wards off evil, protection, and banishing. in this case? kicking my cold to the curb.

turmeric

medicinal: anti-inflammatory, helps with respiratory issues, and supports overall healing.

magical: protection, purification, and strength. burns away what no longer serves you—like, say, this cold.

cinnamon

medicinal: increases circulation, warms the body, helps with congestion, and is lightly antibacterial.

magical: fire energy, success, and power. also makes everything taste less aggressively medicinal.

bay leaf

medicinal: antimicrobial, helps clear up lungs, and can reduce fever symptoms.

magical: manifestation and protection. write your healing intention on the leaf before adding it to the tea. (bonus: it smells amazing.)

rosemary

medicinal: antiseptic, great for respiratory issues, and helps clear the mind (aka, fights that gross brain fog when you’re sick).

magical: healing, clarity, and protection. keeps illness at bay (pun intended).

chamomile

medicinal: anti-inflammatory, calming, and helps you sleep. when you’re sick, rest is the best spellwork.

magical: relaxation, peace, and dream magic. chamomile eases the body and spirit.

whiskey (with some caveats)

medicinal benefits: decongestant, opens up blood vessels, numbing agent, relaxer, helps sleep, mildly antibacterial

magical benefits: strength, resilience, lubricant for transformation magic, banishing, protection, courage, confidence, spirit/ancestor connection

don’t add it if: you’re dehydrated or running a fever, you’re taking medicine that interacts badly with alcohol, you need to be functional and alert, or you know yourself and you’ll pour in half the bottle instead of a splash

🔥 THE DIRTBAG WITCH’S HEALING CHANT 🔥

this brew is fire, this brew is light

burn the sick, set me right

lemon sharp, honey sweet

salt and spice, clear the heat

body strong, fever break

let me rest, let me wake

i drink. i heal. i rise.

or if you’re not into rhyming, say what you want, but add some intentionality behind it. spells can work for you, babes. try something like:

fire in my chest, salt in my veins, warmth in my bones. body, wake up. immune system, do your job. may this potion heal, cleanse, and restore. i release this sickness, i call in my strength. may it be so, and so it is.

🧪 HOW TO USE IT:

• hover over your cup like a cryptid and breathe in the steam. let the warmth wake up your lungs and shake the sick loose.

• mutter or whisper the incantation as if you’re sealing a deal with the universe. feel it sink into the potion.

• sip slow, let it burn, let it soothe. picture the ingredients doing their damn job.

• optional bonus: stir clockwise to welcome in healing, or counterclockwise to banish the plague from your body like a medieval exorcism.

‼️OF NOTE‼️

just because i’m drinking my ✨witchy brew✨ doesn’t mean i’m ignoring modern medicine. i’m still taking meds, hydrating, sleeping like an exhausted cryptid, and willing to go to a doctor if this gets worse

magic isn’t about rejecting science—it’s about working with it. this potion is full of actual medicinal benefits AND it’s infused with intent and energy. you can do both. you should do both.

most importantly if you’re sick right now—let yourself rest. the spell is working. the medicine is working. the body is doing its thing. you’ll be back to causing problems (on purpose) soon enough

anywho, posting this now, curling up under six blankets, and waiting for the magic to kick in. pray for me.

Day 1 @andersweek2025 - Magic Monday

I am going to try to use this week to practice digital art... I am really not confident with digital art, pens and paper are more my thing, so these are taking ages 😂 and needing my to watch a million YouTube videos it seems... not sure I'll get every day done (though tomorrow has been done in advance and took most of the last month to complete) but it's a frustrating fun challenge.

I'm also using this week to explore my Handers world state and the post DA2 relationship betwewen my OC Autumn Hawke and Anders. Just a warning 😝

I was tempted to write a Aumtnm Hawke/Anders post DA2 fic about when their son's magic first presents... but... ran out of time, so that will need to happen some other time.

[lailoken]

I broke my dominant index finger a little while back, and though I was making good progress with it, I recently strained it again and set my healing back a fair amount. As such, I've decided to employ the traditional magical operation I know as 'Wresting the Thread'.

The process entails using a cord of undyed black wool to tie 9 enchanted knots, each of which captures the power of a particular healing prayer that is recited 9 times. That cord is then used to wrap and treat the injured extremity, and when the healing is done, the cord is burned.

Along with the basic traditional framework I learned, I also imbued the wool cord with the virtues of Medicus Oil (an empowered oil of sorcerous remediation,) and called upon the auspices of fixed star Rasalhague, which has shown itself, over the course of my work, to be a powerful ally in matters of health and mending.

(one of) The correct magic square of Solomonic Seal + Translation of Working for Insomnia and nightmares

I thought the previous post wasn't properly written and just reblogging the one before wouldn't really show the "good version" from the trial version, so I hope with this post I am able to present it well. I will provide the translation of this below the image and reasoning behind it below the translation:

"A Useful working from the Treasuries of The Great name of Allah"

You can use this to Banish Marada(Jinns) and Shayateen (Devils) , to ease child's crying and pregnancy. It protects against the Qareen(Double Shadow in PGM), against crossing, the red wind/Al Ahmar(High Fever), agaisnt Hemiplegia, Headache, Migraine, Cold, back pain, snake bite, obvious and hidden illnesses , Fear, Shock, Nightmare and Insomnia.

After writing the following Seal(shown above) you will proceed by saying the following conjruation once:

"شمخيال شمخيال شدخيال شدخيال إسرافيل إسرافيل بكرميال ميططرون جبرائيل توكلو ياخدام هذه الأسماء المباركة بكذا و كذا "

"Shamkhyal Shamkhyal Shadkhyal Shadkhyal Israfil Israfil Bikramyal Maytatron Jibra'il Tawakkalu Ya Khuddam Hathihi al-Asma' al-Mubarakah Bikadha wa kadha" "Shamkhyal, Shamkhyal, Shadkhyal, Shadkhyal, Israfil, Israfil, Bikramyal, Metatron,

Gabriel, Entrust yourselves, O servants of these blessed names, with [the task of] such and such."

Note: Think of the above technique/working as something from the PGM, you have to "flesh it out" yourself and give it a "frame/framing ritual" to plug it into if you want it to work well.

THE REASONING

If you negate/don't take the last star into consideration you will see the above calculation to be correct with Abjad Al Kabeer Gematria calculation. Now to take the above numbering and put it in the square itself. Then you can see that all the rows, column, and diagonal lines sums up to the same number!

tool used: https://charactercalculator.com/ar/abjad-calculator/

Now if you WANT to enumerate all the possible solutions for this formula it would be 171,200 different squares with the top formula/Solomonic square the same: I can send the file if anyone wants, or the code for it if people wants it :)

whumpees who are the ones with the healing magic. they may not be very strong or really able to protect people, but once the damage has been done, they're the ones who tend to others' wounds.

now, whumpee is barely clinging to life, and caretaker has to desperately try to remember everything whumpee taught them about healing magic and tending wounds. and whumpee is too injured to be conscious, so caretaker has to do it all alone.

[elitadream]

If you don’t mind me asking, how deep does Peach’s healing ability go? Can she heal all injuries or are there limits to her healing depending on severity of it?

Does it affect her physically? The more she heals does it leave her drained? Fatigued?

I don't mind at all! 🤗 This is a very good question actually!

The thing is, in my AU, nobody really knows what the true extent of her power really is. Neither Toadsworth, nor Bowser, nor Peach herself has a clear and definite idea of its full magnitude. Her abilities are said (and have been proven to be) more potent than any known power-up and can go well outside of healing bounds, but... Whether there is a limit to those or not is anyone's guess. 🫢

Regarding the use of said power: it can indeed be very draining for Peach depending on the amount and intensity required. The downside would be as much mental as physical, resulting in various symptoms such as faintness, loss of equilibrium, disorientation, migraine and chest pain. Technically speaking, she could likely heal any injury ranging from a mere scratch to a ghastly wound, but the more energy needed, the heavier toll it will take on her wellbeing everytime. ❤️‍🩹

Since her magic is directly linked to her lifeforce, it is suspected that using too much of it at once could cause irreversible damage to her psyche and potentially even be fatal, hence why Toadsworth would be vehemently opposed to her using it under most circumstances. 😔

But here? For something as simple and benign as muscle soreness? And in a context where only a tiny parcel of it would be enough and applying it would be as easy and weightless as breathing? There would be no risk or danger whatsoever. :3 ✨
