hello! this is an ask for whoever runs this account. how is everything going right now for you? do you have reasons why this blogs updates have slowed down?

- puzzle anon

(oh, hello puzzle! im not really comfortable sharing details, but my friend group fell apart and stuff so things havent been going so great. also, over the summer i started to run an object camp so its been taking up a lot of my energy. my depression admittedly got a lot worse over the last few months, and i apologize for not being as active as i used to be here. also, my household isnt too great, so its been a struggle trying to manage my motivation. my workload has been anything but small, as i have school, run a camp, animate, write a show, write fanfic, etc. i have a lot of stuff to work on atm and im trying my best to keep this place active, but its not always so easy. i enjoy seeing the asks but they arent very motivating like they used to be. when this blog was created i became kind of known for my fast responses, i would feel bad for making someone wait over like 20 minutes even, but ive gotten kind of tired of keeping this place running. its still fun for me to answer asks, but its not as enjoyable as it used to be. no, i wont be deleting this blog, and no, it wont become entirely inactive, but id just like to give an update. thanks for giving this ask, and sorry if i ranted too long :’) anyways cya)

I got several annoying things  need to do today so starting out with a silly fun tag seems nice. I was tagged by @adrielswitchyways thank you <3

1. Are you a religious witch? Which religion? I’m casually religious I suppose. I favor the Norse pantheon, specifically Freyja.

2. What is your preferred herbs? hmm I like rose petals and clove and rosemary. 

3. What is your preferred gem? Quartz. any kind.

4. Do you do divination? Which kind? Tarot mostly. I like black mirror scrying too, but I need to make myself a good one. OH and my letter tiles. 

5. Favorite Tarot card? the lovers. typical of me :P  

6. To Curse or not to Curse? for me personally, curse. I’m good at it and if I wanna do it, it means there’s a good reason.

7. Do you have a familiar? nope. 

8. Favorite candle color? I probably use pink most often, followed by green and black. my favorite candles are the pretty ones with herbs and glitter in them lol

9. Favorite rune? dunno! I never practiced enough with them. 

10. Do you celebrate the solstices, full moons, etc? Not really. I know I notice every time there’s a full moon, I like to kinda take the moonlight in a little and let it kinda cleanse me, but I don’t do that as much lately. Other then that, I usually celebrate October 31st and Yule... any other celebrations are just whenever.

11. Do you wear a pentacle? sometimes! 

12. Do you have a broom? Nope, never had a need for one. If I was ever to get one or make one it would be for decoration :P

13. Do you have a pendulum? Yeah, a pretty quatrz one. 

14. Do you have an athame? nope, but I’d never say no to a cool knife.

15. How often do you meditate? I need to start doing it daily.

16. Do you do yoga? Another thing I need to do more often. Mostly for my mental health, it’s not a spiritual thing for me. 

17. Whats your favorite herbal tea? any fruity teas are good.

18. Do you support manipulation magic? sure. 

19. How many altars do you have? Just a small one on my bookshelf, because there’s not much room for a normal one, especially not a working altar like I’d like. But oh well, that’s something for when we move I suppose. 

20. Do you do magic outside often? Not really. When I’m out and about in nature, it’s mostly to enjoy myself and recharge and whatnot. I’m more of an urban witch anyway.

21. Can you read palms, or tea leaves? nope.

22. Would you ever open your own metaphysics shop? ehhhh I don’t know xD it seems like a lot of work.

23. Is your third eye open? I don’t know what it means to have an open third eye, so I have no idea. 

24. Do you like Astrology? Whats your sign? I like astrology! my sign is Taurus. 

25. Favorite flower? Or Tree? I love all kinda of flowers. Peonies and roses are kinda up there!

26. Do you have an animal guide? hmmmm. not that I can remember. To be fair, I’m spiritually blocked lately and I forget things. 

27. Whats your favorite kind of magic? Sympathetic magic, I think! and I looove making spell jars.

28. What time do you feel most like a witch? When I’m walking powerfully and with purpose down the streets of a city. Sounds kinda simple but it’s a specific and magic feeling. 

29. Are you out of the broom closet? Pretty much. 

30. Are you a hereditary witch? Or self discovered? No one’s really hereditary though. You can’t be like “Oh I’m 25 percent witch on my mom’s side” cause like, witchcraft is something you choose.

31. Are you in a coven? Or solitary? I am in an online coven (I created it actually), and I’m so happy I am, too. One of the coolest things that’s happened to me <3

32. Do you want to be in a coven? How big? I like smaller covens. BTW no one HAS to be in a coven. Solitary is fine too. My coven is more like a supportive study group. 

33. When did you become a witch? it’s been a decade now. 

34. Do you make your own spells? Yep, and if I do use someone else’s spell, I’ll usually make it my own in some way.

35. Do you make your own sigils? Yeah I love sigils. I make a lot of them.

36. Why did you choose this path? At risk of sounding like a Bad Slytherin, I like the feeling of power. Not so much over others, but for myself.

37. Whats your favorite element? earth. and water. 

38. Do you do any misc. magic? uhhh I don’t know what would fall under misc magic. I do some spirit work, does that count? I have a spirit buddy, Grinner, although I’ve been neglecting him like I’ve neglected everyone in my life lately. 

39. Magic or things you will never do? There’s not much I wouldn’t do. I stay away from appropriation and killing animals... but anything else is okay.

40. Strangest way a spell backfired? An old boyfriend (my first boyfriend actually, my first love) broke my heart pretty bad. He was stupid then, a kid like kids are. But I was livid, and I cursed him, and although I know he got some of it, I got a lot too. I got flu-sick for like a month before I nullified the curse. OH and there was a stupid stupid stupid love spell I did on a different guy... he turned all creepy stalker-ish. I should have known better. But I do now. I don’t regret what I did.
