Here is a song about my rock collection! It is a tune you probably recognize. Lyrics under the cut!
Permit me to parade my petrological anthology Collected in my quest for comprehensive mineralogy. Their shininess is second to their science and lithology. This song’s about my rock collection! Man, I love geology.
Oh, amethyst is purple ‘cause of iron, isn’t that real neat? And citrine is just amethyst plus lots of geothermal heat. And smoky quartz is brown from radiation and aluminum… Inclusions such as chlorite, rutile, goethite can bloom in ‘em!
(Inclusions such as chlorite, rutile, goethite can bloom in ‘em!) (Inclusions such as chlorite, rutile, goethite can bloom in ‘em!) (Inclusions such as chlorite, rutile, goethite can bloom in bloom in ‘em!)
Oh, sapphire and ruby, well, they’re both corundum chemically And emerald, aquamarine, and morganite are beryl. See, Historically each color had a different etymology And now they’re in my rock collection! Man, I love geology.
(Historically each color had a different etymology) (And now they’re in my rock collection! Man, I love geology.)
My fluorite is a favorite when it’s glowing under UV light. But should it be from Rogerley it changes when the sun is bright. And if you like fluorescence, put this fact inside your cranium: Chalcedony glows green because of ions of uranium!
When making porcelain vases, you need kyanite that’s powdered fine And celestine’s in fireworks and toothpaste such as Sensodyne. There’s mica in your drywall, and the litterbox has zeolites… Your bones and teeth and kidney stones are all hydroxylapatites!
(Your bones and teeth and kidney stones are all hydroxylapatite!) (Your bones and teeth and kidney stones are all hydroxylapatite!) (Your bones and teeth and kidney stones are all hydroxyl-apple-apa-tite!)
When dating strata layers ammonites can be real helpful guys. The sutures in their shell can tell how long ago they fossilized! And artifacts obsidian track trade in archeology. Those ancient folks had rock collections, man I love geology!
(And artifacts obsidian track trade in archeology.) (Those ancient folks had rock collections, man I love geology!)
Oh, did you know that peridot, as super hot peridotite Makes up the planet’s mantle and is also found in meteorites? Which make lechatelierite when it’s sandy soil that they strike. Another form of that is made by lightning, that’s called fulgurite!
Well, garnet makes the best dodecahedrons that you’ve ever seen. Prismatic crystals with three sides are quite unique to tourmaline. A certain mine in Spain produces pyrite that is cubical… Lepidolite can be botryoidal, but that’s quite unusual.
(Lepidolite can be botryoidal, but that’s quite unusual!) (Lepidolite can be botryoidal, but that’s quite unusual!) (Lepidolite can be botryoidal, but that’s quite unusu-usu-al!)
My knowledge of earth sciences is only as an amateur. But hounding and collecting rocks ain’t only for a connoisseur. And for my love of minerals I’m making no apology. Cause rocks are fun for everyone and man, I love geology!

Everything You Need to Know About Crystals: Lapis Lazuli
Lapis Lazuli (The Sacred Stone of Wisdom and Power)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Color:  Deep blue flecked with gold
Rarity: Easy to obtain, can be expensive for high quality
Hardiness: 5.5
Type: Isometric/ Metamorphic
Chakra Association: Throat, Brow, Crown
Angels: Sahaqiel
Deities: Nuit, Venus, Isis, Sin
Astrological Signs: Sagittarius, Capricorn
Element: Water, Air
Planet: Venus
Origin: Afghanistan, India, Myanmar, Pakistan, Russia, USA, Italy, Egypt, Middle East, Chile
Powers: Amplification of Power, Reverse Baneful Magic, Connection to the Spirit World, Protection, Wisdom, Mental and Spiritual Blockage
Crystals It Works Well With: Phantom quartz and Purple Tourmaline
How It is Created: Lapis lazuli is a complex mineral made up of lazurite, pyrite, and calcite. The lazurite gives it its deep blue color (along with the sulfur that’s in its matrix), the pyrite gives it its golden veins, and the calcite gives it its white specks.
History: The name comes from the Latin word lapis, meaning stone, and the word lazuli which means blue. It was first mined in Afghanistan but it has existed even before then. The Egyptians used lapis lazuli in protective amulets and other jewelry. It was used famously by Egyptian nobility, even its powdered form being used as eyeshadow. Lapis lazuli is said to produce power and wisdom and is associated with the Egyptian goddesses, Isis and Nuit. Romans would ingest the powder in food and drinks as an aphrodisiac and it was also used as an antidote for poisons. It is said that the ring the angel gave King Solomon to control his demon legion of workers was made of lapis lazuli.
What It Can Do:
Open the third eye and balance the throat chakra
Stimulates enlightenment and enhances dream work and psychic abilities
Facilitates spiritual journeys and stimulates personal and spiritual power
Releases stress, bringing deep peace
Protective stone that contacts spirit guardians
Recognizes psychic attacks, blocks them, and return the energy back to the source
Teaches the power of the spoken word and can reverse curses
Alleviates pain, especially with migraines
Overcomes depression, benefits the respiratory and nervous systems, cleanse organs and the immune system
Harmonizes the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual levels such as: lack of purpose, disease, and depression
Encourages taking charge in your life
Can amplify powerful thoughts and stimulate higher faculties of one’s mind
Bonds relationships in love, friendship and aid in expressing feelings
How to Get the Best Out Of: With a lot of these visionary stones, I am always going to recommend a bracelet or necklace. Anything that is close to the bloodstream or heart will help the power of the stone connect to you best with these types of stones.
How to Cleanse and Charge: Using incenses or a singing bowl to cleanse lapis lazuli. Lay it on a clear quartz disc or bowl over night under the moon to recharge it. Do not put under the sunlight. It will discolor the stone. (I made this mistake and was heavily scolded by Isis afterwards)
Crystal Grid:
Healthy Body (Sacred Geometry: Metatron’s Cube or Sri Yantra)
Mantra “I trust my body’s ability to heal itself”
Center stone: Quartz sphere
Secondary Stones: Bloodstone, Carnelian, Amethyst, Lapis Lazuli, Quartz
Moon Phase: Dark Moon
Day: Saturday

Money/Prosperity Bowl
Tumblr media
Non-ingredient materials:
A bowl or dish
Green or yellow candle (can use white)
Spare change/cash
Money oil
Ingredients I use:
Alfalfa - prosperity, wealth
Aventurine - fortune, motivation, wealth, prosperity
Bay leaf - wish granting, catalyst
Cinnamon (powdered or sticks) - fortune, protection, wealth, attraction
Clove - wealth, attraction
Coffee - catalyst, speeds things up, amplifier
Dill - fortune, wealth
Garnet - catalyst, prosperity
Geode - fortune
Goldstone - wealth, luck
Malachite - wealth, fortune
Mint - protection, wealth
Money Oil
Pinecone - prosperity, wealth
Pyrite - wealth, luck
Clear Quartz - amplifier (can replace any other stone)
Rice - abundance, prosperity
Rutilated Quartz - fortune, wealth
••••••••••
Cleanse your space and materials however you see fit. I like to smoke cleanse with pine or corresponding incense, but do whatever feels right to you
Add your rice to your bowl. Visualize money and abundance coming your way. Imagine the different ways it can come to you; maybe you got a new job or a bonus on your check. Think about all the good things you would like to come your way
Add your herbs into your rice(except the bay leaf and cinnamon if using sticks). As you add each herb, make sure to set your intention and thank your herbs. I've found that showing gratitude makes a world of a difference. If you're using crystal chips, I would also add them at this time
After your herbs and possible crystal chips are added, stir it all in clockwise, while repeating affirmations or simply thinking about what you want to bring in. Concentrate on what it is specifically that you want, and feel that energy pouring from yourself into the bowl
Move onto your candle and bay leaf. Carve sigil to match your intention or currency symbol into the candle as well as your name and anyone else included within the spell. Write the same on the bay leaf. Then anoint both with the money oil
Place your candle in the center of the bowl. Then begin adding your crystals. Again, remember to take your time setting your intentions and thanking your crystals. After your satisfied with that, add the spare change if you have it and then, you guessed it, thanking it for the job it's about to do
Sit back and admire your work. You just made a money bowl!!!!
To cast, light the candle with intention.
Happy witching!!

Protection Candle – Safe Travels
My mom is going on a trip across the globe (literally), so I wanted to put together a candle for her to help keep her safe while she's on her journey. Continue reading to recreate this spell at home.
You'll need:
A white candle
Protection herbs (Salt, garlic powder, marjoram, Lavender, Spearmint, black pepper)
Something to carve into the candle
Protective crystals (Kunzite, Moonstone, Clear Quartz, Red Jasper, Pyrite, Tigers Eye, Black Amethyst)
Oil (You can use whatever you have on hand)
A plate to stand it on
Here's what I did:
Connect with my ancestors, guides, and deities that you work with. When connecting with my team, I greet them, thank them for their presence, and ask that they guide me through the process. I have an ancestor candle that I light whenever I'm doing anything craft-related since so much of my magick is fueled by my communication and connection with the Otherside. You can light whatever candles or set whatever protection you need. (Whatever works best for you and feels naturally to you!)
Layout the crystals that you plan on pulling energy from and thank them for their presence in the evening's work as well.
Carve the name of the target into the candle and any petitions. I wrote my mother's name, her legal name, and key phrases like "safe travels", "return home safely", "protection", etc. horizontally across the candle.
Dress the candle in oil and herbs. I apply the oil to the candle in a sweeping motion away from me (instead of toward me) because I want the energy I'm putting into the candle to reach the target. (She's far away geographically, so I'm sending this protection out to her.) If this candle is specifically for you, pull the oil toward you and dress it that way instead.
To make the candle to stand upright on a metal tray or some fire-safe thing, melt the bottom of the candle and let the wax drip onto the plate. Then you can just stick the candle on top and the dried wax will help keep it sturdy. Continue to add herbs and crystals for extra protection. I put a ring of garlic powder, salt, and lavender around the candle and said some words to my ancestors and patron deities, but you can use any protective herbs that work for you.
Thank all spirits and deities present for the evening (or whatever time you’re performing the spell) and the herbs and crystals for lending their energy. Anyone/anything that helped contribute to the spellwork should be thanked for their contribution.
Then you light the candle. Light the candle every day that they're away until it melts completely or until they return. Repeat the process if it burns out before they return.
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
A note:
This spell, the process, and the ingredients used are what works for me. You can use whatever crystals, color of candle, herbs, etc. work best for you. If there are herbs, crystals, etc. that you have a deeper connection with, please feel free to use those rather than what I listed. Magick is so personal and the spells you create should be something you can connect with. This is just what works best for me.

OK I KNOW I ALREADY SENT AN ASK TODAY BUT. BUT. because of my pyrite girl kick i found out about kintsugi, which is the japanese art of repairing broken pottery and stuff by filling the cracks with a mix of powdered gold and lacquer and its SO pretty oh my god.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
and it immediately reminded me of your fallen gabe design, with the golden cracks all over his body. and the philosophy behind kintsugi is finding beauty in the broken, treating it as something to be remembered and celebrated as a part of the item’s history rather than something to be hidden away and covered up. and i just. holy. going feral
Tumblr media Tumblr media
AAAA YES YEA!!!! THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT THE DESIGN IS MEANT TO REFERENCE!!! it is such a beautiful artform and i very much liked the concept of treating breakage or imperfection as a part of the piece, that the damage doesn't detract from it but instead speaks to its life. so for gabriel, i wanted the cracks in his chest/head (and later around his joints) to resemble both cooled and broken lava to represent the fire that has now died as well as the golden repair that has allowed him to live on despite what's been done to him. he has been broken, but his choice, his autonomy, his love, have all repaired him, and rather than being left as a broken vessel, something to be thrown out now that it no longer fulfills its "purpose", his body is sutured together in brilliant gold. there is so much value in what he's done, he is far from empty - heaven cannot bear flaws, and for some time gabriel can't see the beauty in the repairs either...so it's so incredibly sweet to think of v1 coming to him, showing him a little vase put back together just the same way he was. to act, to live, is to one day be damaged...and gabriel contemplates that vase for some time. someone repaired it just so, someone kept it in their home and even added to its original value in its broken state. he thinks about how it came to be in pieces, how it must have a history...one an unbroken, untouched vase would never have. a vase like he once was. it helps him understand his own scars and the way v1 seems to value them, as well as helping him a bit when his skin begins to turn to stone. even in that, maybe he can think of himself as art.

Chapter 11 Trivia
"Mr. Ishigami, I don't feel so good…"
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is Mirai's first introduction, in a very sneaky way!
(She was not the girl Tsukasa gave the seashell necklace to in chapter 5.)
Tumblr media
Despite not knowing what happened in the past, Tsukasa inserts himself into Senku and Taiju's memories, protecting them from bullies, being tested on, and helping out with the rockets.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Taiju just about managed to catch Senku before he hit the ground. He's surprisingly fast.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Earlier, Taiju told Tsukasa he doesn't hit people, but Tsukasa still considers him a threat anyway.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Calculation time! How heavy is the rock Taiju lifts?
First let's approximate the size: the flat base looks like it has a similar diameter to the length of his knee to the ground. We know Taiju's height is 189 cm, and that length is ~1/3 of his height, giving us 63 cm.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Several angles show us that this rock has a round cross section but has a square profile, so we'll assume a cylinder with a diameter of 63 cm and a height of 23.5 cm.
Converting to meters, we get a volume of 0.29302, or ~0.3 ㎥.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
We can't know the exact mineral composition of the rock to get its density, but we do know that it contains iron pyrites and was found on a volcano, so we'll assume it's an igneous rock (=the type made from cooled lava).
The average density of common igneous rocks is 2776 kg/㎥.
Tumblr media
Multiplying this by the volume of the rock, we get…
832.8 kg.
For context, the current world record for an Atlas stone lift is 286 kg, and Taiju is throwing his rock around like it weighs almost nothing.
Tumblr media
In case Taiju's feat of superhuman strength wasn't impressive enough, in order to escape from Tsukasa, Taiju uses pretty much textbook misdirection to allow his lovely assistant Yuzuriha to grab and throw the black power.
Tumblr media
Tsukasa seems surprised that they'd use black powder here, despite everything that happened in the last day or so pointing to this very moment.
Back in chapter 9, Tsukasa himself even mentions its existence and its use against him.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Taiju is very polite, he bids Tsukasa farewell right before he blows him and half the mountain up…

Pyrite - Let's play "Spot the Rock" ! Two pip d6s are hidden in each of these photos. Can you see them ? 😂 They're made out of Jesmonite, a stone like resin made with gypsum powder. They're heavier than epoxy resin, and make a really nice "clack clack" sound.

Amazing Sulfur
As a tribute to my favorite demon I discovered how cool sulfur is.
Tumblr media
After escaping from a vent, sulfur vapor crystallizes. (from National Geographic article Into the Fire Tubes)
Tumblr media
In Lapis Lazuli the deep blue color comes from a rare form of sulfur radical (meaning it has caught on an extra electron), which shouldn't be stable on earth but is stabilized by its crystal structure. The pigment ultramarine originally came from grinding Lapis Lazuli into a powder.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
pyrite (fool's gold) and marcasite are both iron sulfide. Lots of minerals and gems are sulfides or sulfates.
Tumblr media
And of course I already posted about blue lava, when sulfur burns at extremely high temperatures.

So pay up! Or suffer the consequences!
⚔️Quotes⚔️
"Cultivator friend, I plead guilty!"

Favorite Offerings: Candy, Apples, Attention, Acts of Devotion, Odd Gifts.

Tumblr media Tumblr media
I modeled these sigils after his hair ornament. ⬆️
Have fun and be careful with this entity! Even he will admit he’s far from stable.

Stibnite with Quartz
Antimony Sulphide, the principal ore of Antimony.
Initially Silvery-grey but can develop an iridescent black tarnish upon exposure to light.
Usually occurs as elongated crystals in a radiating, needle-like structure.
Stibnite forms in Hydrothermal Veins and Hot Spring deposits at low temperatures up to 200 degrees C and is often associated with Galena, Cinnabar, Realgar, Orpiment, Pyrite and Quartz.
Stibnite is used to manufacture matches, fireworks and percussion caps for firearms.
Historically Stibnite was crushed to a powder and used as an eye cosmetic called Kohl.

I have begun work on expert modpack so let me shill it to you :]
Starting with Botania, you'll need to get into Thermal, then Ars, then Malum, and then combine your expertise in each, to begin synthesis and automation of a material prized by the gnomes so they can count you as worthy of the gnomish technomagister qualifications.
But it isn't so straightforward. Twists and turns through your path as you create new materials, an interweaving of the four core mods.
It'll be very lightweight, and force you to think unconventionally. The gnomes adore unusual magical automation.
Are you capable, of progressing through the tiers and crafting a mystical factory any gnome would be proud of?
Recipe examples (not many, it's still very much in the "how do I gate this" phase, but core progression is solidified):
Steel, requires you to scrape the magic out of manasteel and sear the result in a furnace.
Arcane pyrite, an important midgame metal, asks of you to alloy terrasteel, gold, and mana powder, throw the result in a mana pool, then alloy that again with a source gem.
