My OCs' jersey number explanations ramblings ^_^

Tsubasa - #13 (usual jersey)

Tsubasa's birthday is February 13. So purely in terms of personality, Tsubasa is egocentric and self-absorbed enough to use his birth date as his preferred jersey that he insists on wearing

Now onto the meta stuff:

Well we all know 13 is the cliched bad luck number in Western culture. Tsubasa in his backstory has many unlucky circumstances surrounding his life. Btw I know Gesner is #13 in BM but let's be honest Tsubasa is more important (my beloved oshi). I think it can also have a double meaning, unlucky number 13 as in you're unlucky to be against him rather than the sole fact that he, himself, is unlucky.

Tsubasa is a self-reliant person & player who always preserves so it can be a case of someone "making their own luck" no matter the circumstance as well.

He has a lot of strange beliefs and conventions so being symbolized by a superstitious number also fits him thematically. For example he believes in angels and the death-rebirth cycle and other such not scientifically proven to exist things.

Tsubasa's character has a theme surrounding an obsession with "death" both literal and symbolic (as his goal of self-realization and also his definition of "change" lies in "death" in his own mind, hence the obsession with "dying", and to him "death" is "repentance" for what he "has done", which according to him is "being born").

The death-rebirth cycle samsara is a Buddhist belief. In Japanese beliefs about Buddhist deities, there are thirteen Buddhas who also play an important role in traditional funerals (once again bringing it back to the theme of death and rebirth in his own personal belief system + as well as the fact that he veers spiritual).

The number 13 itself in astrology and tarot readings is sometimes associated with transformation and rebirth, and the End of one cycle onto the beginning of another. The "Death" card is number 13 in the major arcana - the card itself also symbolizes renewal.

In Japanese & Chinese numerology: 1 + 3 = 4, "shi" = death, traditonally four is considered unlucky in Japanese culture even if 13 itself isn't.

#42 - U-20 match jersey specifically

4 + 2 = "shini" = "to death", again considered an unlucky number, in Tsubasa's case more so means "I'll play to death", i.e. "I'll play until I'm renewed". It's also pretty edgy and contrarian all things considered since a superstitious Japanese person would usually avoid having this as a jersey number.

Mael - #5

Mael's jersey number as well as most things about him are meant to be ironic in some way/bully him.

In Japanese numerology, it's considered a lucky number. It's also associated with the Chinese concept of the "five elements"/Wuxing, so it is said sometimes that number 5 brings luck and blessings, which Mael lacks from birth.

The deficient destructive cycle in Wuxing is the fifth phase "counteracting" (fire evaporates water, water destabilizes earth, etc) -> Mael has a reactive and explosive personality that is harmful to him and others lying within his trigger prone behavior.

In Christian numerology, number 5 symbolizes grace and God's unwavering love towards humankind, which is again ironic because Mael is born in an unfavorable situation and struggles to move on.

God's fifth commandment is "Honor your mother and your father" -> Mael was born into an abusive household to drug addicts who neglected him and later on disowned him. Since birth they gave him nothing and were nobodies to him. Number 5 symbolizes God's favor culturally, but Mael was not born in his favor, and afterwards he fails to adjust to a normal and stable self and living.

In Buddhism there are also five precepts that serve as the base morality principle for enlightenment and the path so salvation.

The five precepts forbid the following: killing of both animals and humans, theft and other things along those lines (fraud, forgery), sexual misconduct (i.e. sexual acts which are either forceful, unethical or adulterous in nature), spoken falsehood (lying, gossiping, verbal aggression), intoxication (alcohol, drugs, occasionally smoking is counted).

Out of those Mael is guilty - and often! - of theft, verbal aggression/malicious speech, intoxication (both as someone who uses stimulants and drinks frequently and even sold substances in the past).

TL;DR MAEL IS NOT MAKING IT TO NIRVANA WITH THIS ONE 😂😂😂 HE IS STUCK IN THE CYCLE 😂😂😂😂

elisabet sobeck + natal chart

Elisabet Sobeck is another character in the Horizon games with an actual date of birth: March 11th, 2020. I'm going to avoid comparisons to Aloy, but I will say this: they're working towards the same goal, but both women's journeys will ultimately differ from each other. Elisbet's chart is undoubtedly the chart of a very lonely but very determined person.

Even though Elisabet has a 10th house stellium like Aloy does, hers is much more grim and heavy, with Saturn, Pluto, Jupiter, and Mars all conjunct each other. Speaking of this stellium, in real life, her birth date wasn't too long ago. This is when the pandemic started, and many astrologers believe this stellium in Capricorn was what kicked it off, as there have been similar stelliums associated with past pandemics (such as the 1918 flu). So, Elisabet had to deal with a different kind of "pandemic"...the Faro plague.

Even before the Faro plague became her career-defining moment, her career was not without conflict. Working at Faro Automated Solutions under Ted Faro, a man she often butted heads with, was certainly harrowing enough. Their constant disagreements led to Elisbet leaving FAS and starting her own company, Miriam Technologies. Of course, Ted didn't take kindly to this and apparently filed many lawsuits against her.

Many characters have commented on how hard it was to know Elisabet on a personal level. I believe her Sun/Neptune conjunction in Pisces in the 12th house is the main contributer to this. The 12th house is a very elusive house, and with Neptune there, it's no wonder not many people felt they didn't know her too well. Adding to this is her Moon in Libra in the 7th house squaring her 10th house stellium. Elisabet almost always put her work (10th house) first, while relationships (7th house) were always put on the back burner.

Of course, this is not to say she didn't care about people: quite the opposite. With Mercury in Aquarius in the 11th house (the house of communities and groups of people), she was very interested in using techonology to reverse the environmental damage of her time. This is also quite evident with her Uranus/Venus conjunction in Taurus, an earth sign that is often associated with nature and the environment, and Uranus signifying technology and innovation.

And finally, there is another side to her Sun/Neptune conjunction in the 12th house. Pisces traditonally rules the 12th house, and is often associated with selflessness and self-sacrifice. While it doesn't always have to signify sacrificing one's own life for other people, this is what Elisabet ended up having to do.

What are the differences between sidereal and draconic charts compared to tradition or tropical? What can you use them for and what do they mean?

this is actually a pretty huge topic and something i might write more extensively on later but let's do a rundown here.

what is traditional is going to depend a lot on where you are from and who you learn from. vedic and western tropical are the two most traditonal ones i think, and it seems like you are referring to tropical here, but i want to be clear that's not always the case.

so, tropical: this doesn't take into account the precession of the equinoxes over thousands of years, which is why it no longer lines up with the visible stars. i discuss this in more detail in this book and it's also something you can do your own research on if you wish. in this system each sign is just a thirty-degree chunk of the sky, and the 0 degree of aries is determined by the day of the vernal equinox in the northern hemisphere (autumnal in south) NOT by the actual beginning of the constellation of stars that looks like aries the ram. i do not have any good scientific reason why this method should work better than any other, but my experience is that it is the best, and it is very old and widely used around the world so others must agree! i use this for pretty much everything although i know a thing or two about some other chart systems.

sidereal: DOES account for the precession of the equinoxes and DOES more or less line up with the actual stars as a result. but make no mistake, there's more than one way to do a sidereal chart. for instance, vedic astrology popular in india is one sidereal system. it uses the same 12 zodiac signs as the tropical system i use, but additional information and if i understand right also each sign is 30 degrees so it doesn't line up perfectly with the stars (someone correct me on this if i'm wrong in the replies please~). but there are other sidereal systems that don't have evenly sized signs, or they do but they incorporate eg the 13th sign, ophiuchus. i have written some before about how i feel like these sorts of systems SHOULD be more accurate but in my personal experience never are. the physicist/astronomer in me doesn't like that but whatever, i don't make the rules.

one thing i have heard is that while tropical is best for knowing thyself, sidereal or at least vedic is better for making predictions. i'm digging into that a little bit on my own time but i think tropical does predictions fairly well itself if you know what you're doing! since i am not as well-versed in vedic i still use tropical for my predictions and while i may not know the minute details it never really gets the vibe wrong.

draconic: a bit of a different thing. i offer these readings in my etsy. like everything i do, it varies a little bit from the most traditional/conventional manner. but it seems to work nicely. i think this style of chart has its origin in vedic astrology where the lunar nodes are the head and tail of the dragon, but it seems a lot of people do this chart in a tropical system anyway. it's defined by making the north node the 0 degree of aries and building the rest of the chart around that. so the planets and spacing of everything are the same as in the tropical natal chart, but the signs change. the idea is that this shows you something about your karma, your soul, your overarching personality in a way that is bigger than your personal egoic small self life as you know it. it's very esoteric and cool.

draconic charts are always really similar to natal charts. they are for a *person*. but you can do vedic or tropical charts about an individual, a meeting, a synastry, an event, a horary chart, etc. so that is another difference.

another thing i want to mention which you didn't ask explicitly but might interest you is all of the above are geocentric approaches. you can also do heliocentric astrology! i'm delving into that too because that's one of those things my science brain wants to work so much, lol. it is not widely practiced in the mainstream but astro dienst will generate heliocentric charts if you check off the right boxes. it's fun to play with. the big change is you no longer have a sun sign, you have an earth sign, and it is opposite whatever your natal sun sign is in tropical (eg i'm a taurus sun, but in heliocentric i have my earth in scorpio.)

that seems like a long post but seriously it just scratches the surface. i hope it helps anyway, and maybe spurs some further investigation! thank you for the excellent question <3 will definitely be reblogging this one for posterity~

The Great Project

It's Astrology Natal Chart Time

the inside of my brain is a bowl slippery noodles that catch on each other, but the end result is usually nart and, lately, astrology. this was a very original interest for me to (re)take up in 2024, i'm sure. but brats playing and i'm sick*** as hell so here are my correct opinions. if you have some background knowledge and are reading this, i use primarily ancient astrology (in this case that means i'm only talking about the traditonal planets) but characters are objects, not people, and i would argue that the more psychological affectation of modern astrology is of better use. this is also a No Math reading. the slow moving planets will go where i say for these fake people.

Nart Fart

Taurus Asc

Libra Sun

Sagittarius Moon

Libra Mercury

Libra Venus

Aries Mars

BYO Jupiter

Aquarius Saturn

Forgot he was a libra which is something libra men can do to you. in this specific way talk-no-jutsu is a superpower all librans have. the sun is not actually the most complex placement and i REALLY don't think that he's solar ruled so i don't have much to say. he's a libra! take him to the mall!

his moon tho!! i love to cheat and give charismatic but unstable men libra moons. this is because of all the war crimes libra moon men* commit. but i actually think he's a sagittarius moon so congratulate naruto for getting one of the only placements that could suggest a Massive Wang. sag isn't a comfortable moon, it's lucky and gregarious but equally capable of pure delusion because you DO get lucky. it's also the moon i'd pick for someone who was deliberately socially abrasive, if not outright rude. but he needs a social moon; one that looks outward to sooth his emotional self. and since i said No to a libra moon and i have several reasons to not put cancer it's this or aries. i do think aries works! but why i would minorly put sag above it, is that the entirely fight for nart is philosophic: how does he live in konoha. how does he overcome kurama. how does he convince sasuke. and combined with the positive aspects of t-n-j i think this is a great expression of a venus-jupiter combo. this can be answered with martian power, but it's a better story if it isn't!

(watch nart have been born canonically on a full moon so it's aries by defaut)

mars is also fairly important and i do actually give this one to aries. no arguments he just acts like a dude with an aries mars. i think his venus and jupiter, despite being so important, are also up for grabs. i'd hear libra for both. i'd hear leo for venus. i'd hear leo for mercury, which isn't possible! straight up: i do not like any of the mercury choices i don't think any suit how he thinks and acts. i don't even think he has a libran mercury, but its the least No one i can think of. can't always win.

i am dead certain he has a helpful saturn, which sounds insane when you think about all the restrictions he was born under but that shit sorts itself out before he's even twenty. as a bitch with a shitty saturn i could never!!!!! reorders and restructures his whole society.........aquarius coded tbh.

i think he's moon ruled, and i'm less fussed about the ascendant but i'd pick taurus over cancer**. congratulations to naruto for getting one of the other Humongous Cock indicators.

Sasgay

Aries Asc

Leo Sun

Cancer Moon

Virgo Mercury

Cancer Venus

Cancer Mars

Cancer Jupiter

BYO Saturn

it's britney bitch! it's a man with a really lucky chart. this is why he didn't IMMEDIATELY die when itachi started pulling shit. he knew he was an aries rising with a leo sun and a cancer moon and heck why not a cancer jupiter too. super funny to do that given, ya know. the massacre. but how are you going to fuck it up saz? how are you going to make this awful. SO glad you asked. cancer mars. evil, evil placement. this is a joke of course: astrology has no dictation on morality. that's on you. this is also not a joke, in that of there's one placement i would actually never date and it IS a cancer mars. their feelings are never, ever a joke and they will stalk you to the ends of the earth to ensure you know that. your feelings, however? they are always up for debate. if you have ever wanted to live rent free in someones mind but somehow still pay for it, here you go. fuck a cancer mars tbh.

know what lets really fuck it up and give him both a cancer venus and chiron. cancer fourth house stellium. huge mamas boy if she hadn't been muuuurdered. also could work with the way he just, fucks off in boruto. lets never met again, sarada! i believe in apple by charli xcx! these generational wounds STAY unhealed!

you know what would be so funny and make zero sense. if sasuke had a cap saturn. he SHOULD hae an aquarius one if thats what i chose for nart but this is funnier. functional saturn! no weapon made against you shall prosper (past the age of 27)! too bad ur ideological opponent is You Free From The Shackles of Society And With a Railgun.

Why Isn't Sasuke a Scorpio Sazz? Aren't All Antihero's Scorpios Sazz? He Wears A Lot of Navy Sazz? Fool. Itachi is the scorpio. Itachi is the most gem sun, scorp moon bitch i've ever seen. he is AN ACTOR. he is A TRAITOR TO HIS COUNTRY LEAKING STATE SECRETS. he is GASLIGHTING YOU. besides sasuke has all that martian energy anyway. he'll just break up with you in person instead of faking his death and framing you for it.

(actually having written this........sasuke is the only one who would just break up with you)

Sakura

Aries Rising

Cancer Sun

Libra Moon

Gemini Mercury

Leo Venus

Leo Mars

Leo Jupiter

Cancer Saturn

talk about a bitch with an unevolved libra moon. sakura, your twelve and he's gay. jokes aside. libra moon libra moon libra moon. my entire life is filled with libra moons and she is one. i have never once understood the libran emotional process but i HAVE learnt that the fastest way to help is to take them somewhere beautiful, and tell them how lovely they are. aries rising because of literally her entire personality before the wave arc. luckily!! aries are meant to grow.

her gem is actually so important given her journey which is why its a gem/leo toss up but i give it to gem because she's just flatly smart. she understand process. she can read a context clue. she is On it. leo mercury has the diligence and competence of all leos but as a certified mercurian its a different kind of intelligence.

so sakura should have at least dated rock lee because as a bitch with a leo venus and mars hes the only one who would take her on a date she'd like. you can make a cancer/cancer argument for her sasuke phase, but i genuinely think she has a lot of pride and self worth. way more a leo thing. i actually have no opinion on her jupiter. this choice is Full Vibes.

okay so all of team 7 should have lucky saturns and i'm so sorry baby to do this to you. i do not see this for her. i think she may have a sun-saturn conjunction. think of it as having your light dimmed by misfortune, misunderstanding or misuse. i don't really feel like doing synastry charts for these three -i would literally have to do the math personally, but considering what I have said sasusaku could work really well here for pushing growth on both of them. they'd also definitely get divorced.

Kakashi

Gemini Asc

Virgo Sun

Virgo Moon

Virgo Mercury

Virgo Venus

Pisces Jupiter

BYO Saturn

OF COURSE KAKASHI IS A VIRGO. you know what? he's a virgo stellium!!!!!! my astrology analysis was just going to be More Squares, but this is worse for him. I can give him an exalted mercury and objectively the worst venus placement. i'm god and kakashi is my plaything.

to be more serious i actually want to make him mercury ruled and i want it from gemini, so gemini ascendant! all that virgo in the fourth house baby!!!! do not ever ask him about his childhood. super interesting bounce off of sasukes natal chart here, too. does he remind you???? of someone???? gem ascendant is what gives him his charm, here. he's very clearly a weirdo but CAN socialize. he's got lady gaga charisma. u remember the meat dress but gosh darn it.......the gal can sing!

this is a No Math chart creation still so i'm ignoring the impossibility and assigning him a positive jupiter. because i don't actually want him dead. a very positively placed benefic can take an otherwise Doomer chart to 'well, the horrors SHOULD have killed you but were faster, i guess'. i did also think about giving him a benefic ruler, like Sagittarius ascendant which would pop all that virgo in the 10th house which thematically Still Works but i do think his sun and moon should be 'below' the horizon.

i actually think his saturn is so important but idk. i'm pretty tempted to make it pisces for the delicious tension between the IC and the MC.

*this isn't actually a joke: putin, kissinger, j.d vance, stalin and george w bush have their moon in libra.

** 'isn't cancer the only true-' i am fucking around. i am counting the exaltation. *** i am no longer sick, merely correct

yall keep playing w/ pisces

No offense to the writer of this piece, I just get irritated when people cast Pisces as this sensitive dreamer who will hold everyone’s hand forever.

Firstly, if your going to talk about Pisces (also Aquarius, Scorpio), please be prepared to write at least twice what you wrote about any of the other nine signs. These three signs have dual rulerships.

Trans-Saturnian planets are invisible to the naked eye, and were only incorporated into the astrological system starting in the 19th century. Yet those 3 had rulers before that discovery, Scorpio ruled by Mars, Aquarius ruled by Saturn, and Pisces by Jupiter. And this worked.

Scorpio’s martial will and Pisces’ jovian disposition are clear to those with little understanding of astrology. Saturn’s association with Janus and his two faces embodied in Capricorn, weighing what has preceded, flowing to Aquarius, looking outward, foretelling what is to come.

The traditional rulerships express the first, shell, uninitiated aspects of the signs which would gain a modern ruler.

SO back to Pisces. Pisces is ruled by Jupiter AND Neptune. The Piscean dreaminess known to all is but the subtle influence of Neptune, magnified by the expansiveness of Jupiter; looking at a water droplet under a microscope thinking it the ocean. Neptune at the surface is illusory, undefined and “dreamy” because what it represents can never be solid. Neptune represents spirit in all and in each, oneness and unity. It is the moving water on our planet, oceans seas rivers streams aquifers, that never end yet permeate and surround all, shallow rills that tickle toes to oceanic depths great enough to pulverize a human body. Neptune is the call you get from your mother when your about to give up, it the experience of seeing dolphins race and play alongside your boat and it is the impulse that pushes the plunger just too far.

Neptune in partnership with Jupiter, exalted by the full light of the Sun...

“And I shall not be dark, but beautiful and terrible as the Morning and the Night! Fair as the Sea and the Sun and the Snow upon the Mountain! Dreadful as the Storm and the Lightning! Stronger than the foundations of the earth. All shall love me and despair!” [Galadriel] lifted up her hand and from the ring that she wore there issued a great light that illuminated her alone and left all else dark...”

You no longer have a unassuming loner doodling fairies in a Lisa Frank notebook. Jupiter’s high intellect perceives the abilities of every sign before and Neptune unifies them all in spirit.

She ascends.

High Priestess, beloved and feared, beautiful and terrible.

I suffered by not knowing what I could be, a strength I’m finding that I did not know possible, and I refuse to let cutesy trite shallow Pisces interpretations keep any of us in the dark.

Witchtypes and Crafts

Merry meet. And welcome to this long long post. Since I am new to witchcraft I am currently researching a lot. And one of those topics I am researching is the Types of Witches and their Crafts. Since that is on every List for the New witch to research. Right after History of Witches. Maybe I will make a Blog about the History as well. Later, when I have more Informations on it.

Some hints for this Post:

1: this List is not complette.

2: No witch is just one Type. Labels are nice and give a good Sense of Order. But most Witches have more then one way to do their magic. So Mix Types are usual in my experience.

3: It is mostly about where the witch is focusing on and what she works with.

4: Changing your "Type" is possible and maybe even good. Maybe you will find a way for magic you didn't even new existed. Try it out.

5: If I am presenting something wrong, please tell me. I will change it. We all can learn from each other.

6: if you know another Kind of Type that is not on the list, feel free to reblog and/or comment.

7: several names for one Kind of Type happens. So dont wonder about it if you know the Type but under a different Name.

8: there are alot of them. And some go into each other. But are their own Type. So I Made some Kind of big categories. I hope you can follow me through this all.

9: I wrote all of this in my Book of Shadows. There I just got a little Checklist. Not the Text Version like I am giving you here. If you want the short Version just write to me and I will see what I can do.

Now to the actual List of Types. There are a lot of them. So buckle up.

1. Eclecctic Witch

Just because eclecctic has a negative ring to it in some languages (German for instance), doesn't mean that these Witches are uncreative. This witch Pulls their Pratcises from many other different types, depending in what they want, need and can do. No eclecctic witch is like another.

2. Hedge Witch / Liminial Witch

These witches concentrate more on the In-Between Places. Astral Projection, Spiritual Places and Dream Magic are very common for them.

3. Green Witch / Nature Witch / Garden Witch

You can meet these Witches outside. Plants and Nature are there Expertise. The Garden is normally the centrum of their magic.

- Wild Witch

A special Form of the Green Witch. This Wild Witch is not feral. No. They just love the wilderness and the nature in its free Form. Tamed and orderly kept gardens are not so their thing. She Feels much more connected to the wilderness, where humans have not meddled.

- Forest Witch

Also a special Form of the Green or Nature Witch. These Witches love their Woods and Forests. Trees are Essential for them and their magic.

- Weather Witch / Storm Witch

If it as a Storm, Rain or just the sunshine, these Witches know how to work with the weather and what enegies they can harvest and use. From what I read these Witches seem to Prefer the rain and wind, with the occasional ligthning Strike. That is why there are also known as Storm Witches.

- Ozean / Sea Witch

The first thing that comes to the mind when you hear Sea Witch would be Ursula from Ariel. (I personally have bad relationship with her... oh childhood you follow me everywhere). But Ursula is giving a pretty crooked Picture for these witches. They focus on the Tides. And who rules over those? The Moon, correct. Trying to seperate the Ozean from the Moon wont work. And these witches also use the storm magic like the Weather Witches. Of course more focused on the sea weather. Sadly bot every Sea Witch is so lucky to live near the Ozean. Other great water bodies work as well for them. A Lake or a sea work as well.

4. Kitchen Witch

One of the most well known and beloved witches today. Not surprising. Food is something we all love and cherish. But for these witches their Kitch and their food are their Kingdom and sacred place. They love to cook or bake. New Recipes and creating their own, that is something they enjoy.

- Garden Witch

This witch is equally well known and often very close with the Kitchen Witch. The Herbs from the Garden are not only being used in the tea, but also made into little bags and bundels. In German you may know here as a “Kräuter Hexe”.

- Cottage Witch / Hearth Witch / Personal Space Witch

This type of Witch concentrates her magic on her home. Cozy and Safe, that is her motto. They need a safe and sacred place, which is their home. This witch often overlaps with the Kitchen and Garden Witch.

5. Healer Witch

The Healer or healing Witch uses her magic mostly for - well - healing. Like the name indicates. Selfhealing or the healing of others: The Witch Doctor is IN and waiting for their next patient.

6. Crystal Witch

A very common witch. And don’t I understand it. These little guys are pretty and gourgeous and very useful and powerful. Crystal, Gem, Jewels or just a plain rock. These witches knows a lot about them and how to use them. You could say the crystals are the “foundation stone”.

7. Divination Witch

This Witch concentrates her magic on the subconscious and their intuition. And uses them to predict the future. Just because of that, they don’t think that everything is set in stone. They know very well of the free Will and the power it holds and wields. Tarot, Palm reading and others. There are many ways and options to get a glance into the future. But be careful, you might not like what you get to see.

8. Empath Witch

I personaly found this witch very relatable for me and found myself reflected. This Witch concentrates on their emotions and Intuition. They can pick up all kind of energies, vibes and moods (of a room, person, animal, you say it), read them and work with them

9. Mental Witch

The mental witch fascinated me immediatly, when I heard from them. And it demanded immediatly a lot of respect from me. The way they are using their magic is purely mentally. That means no physical counterpart. Complete concentration and a lot of Imagination are needed and necessary. That is why it is an incredible hard magic. I can imagine how quick bad things can turn out, just because you are not in complete control of your thoughts while you work your magic...

10. Cosmic Witch / Astrology Witch

These witches are living with the Nightsky and are constantly working with him. Not just the moon, the stars and the plantes are an important part as well in this witchcraft. With the phases it is very diverse over the year.

- Lunar / Moon Witch

They focus on the moon. And they look how it affects them. Their power comes and goes with the moon.

- Solar Witch / Sun Witch / Day Witch

This witch works only on the day and rises and goes with the sun. The night is not for them at all. The Sabbats and the Summer Solstice are their Highpoints of the year.

- Nocturnal Witch

As the name suggest, these witches are the complette opposite of the Solar Witch. The Night is their Kingdom.

11. Cultural / Traditonal Witch

This is a group of many different tipes and stiles, put under one label. From Nordic to african and egypt. The Homeland and the culture and traditions (Heritage) from there are a solid and important Part of their Craft

- Religious Witch

This one is pretty simple and normaly just an addition (like I said way up, most witches are a mix of many types). This witch gets in contact with their God, Godess or Gods in her magic, makes it a part of it. All Religions can be combined with Witchcraft. Christianity or Buddhism, a religious witch can find a way to get the higher ups involved.

- Wicca

You probably heard already from these Witches. Wicca is neopagan religion and is using a lot of old models and musters in their ways to live.

Nice sentence to remember from Skye Alexander: Every Wicca is a Witch, not every Witch is a Wicca.

- Ancestral Witch

This witch lives close with their family and the ones that came before them. A Family tree will be found somewhere, I am sure. And it will be up to date. They have a close bond with their Ancestors and are communicating with them.

- Necromancy Witch

No, this witch doesn’t raise the dead and doesn’t creates Zombies (why can I hear the sigh of disapointment...?). But they comes easily in contact with the deceased. And blood realtion is not needed for them. The Graveyard is a place of serenity and company for these witches.

- Hereditrary Witch

To be this kind of witch, you need a witch in your family that teached you their craft. Grandmother or uncle, who it is was and is, is not so important. Passed on Spells and Recipes from Generation to the next Generation. Maybe our Children or nieces and nephews will learn the witchcraft from us and with that will be carring on. (Just think, the spell you created might be still used some Generations later. Quite Impressive)

- Ceremonial / Ritual Witch

This witch loves Ceremonies and Rituals to bring their magic into the world. Rules and clear procedures, which makes them the opposite to the Chaos Witch, a Type that will be described later.

12. Elemantal Witch

Like the name says, these witches a working mostly with the elements and their spirits.

- Air/Fire/Water/Earth Witch

These Witches have specialised themself on one Element. The one they feel connected with. The Reason is only important to the relationship and how it will be expressed.

- Fairy / Fae Witch

I hardly now anything about these witches. Just that they work with the faes. That’s about it.

- Dragon / Draconic Witch

I don’t know a lot about these witches as well, saddly. Just that they work with the dragons, and with the fire.

- Pact Witch

These Witches make contracts with a lot of magical creatures and other beings. How these pacts look like differs not only from witch to witch, but is also different depending on the partner of the contract and their relationship.

13. Shadow Witch

One of the first witchtypes I looked into more. They use Shadow Work. Now what is that? It is about knowing yourself, all sides and facettes. The good and the Bad. And to shine a Light on them to work on and with them. The Subconsciousness is incredible important for them. And Meditation and Reflexion are frequently Methods for them.

14. Warrior Witch

These witche have an incredible urge to be activ and are protectiv. Like the Name tells you these witches are not afraid to fight for what they believe in. They have a strong and good Sense for what is right and what is wrong. Ethic and Morality are a Talent of theirs.

15. Chaos Witch

I mentioned this witch a litle earlie, that they are the opposite of the ritual Witch. They are untraditionel and love to think outside the box, because of that their magical praxis is nothing like the “schoolbook”. Flexibel and spontan are here a key. Also the changing of their way of magic is usual and not weird at all. The Genius overlooks the Chaos.

16. Modern Witch

- Tech Witch

If it is the Smartphone or the Laptop, this witch understands Technologie and knows how to use it in and with their magic.

- Urban / City Witch

This witch loves the Big Cities. The more people on one place, the better. The engery that exists there is easily used by these witches. But also the tram or cars are part of their everyday magic.

- Pop Cultural Witch

Who doesn’t know them? The new witches and wizards. Harry Potter, Sabrina, and who not and whereever they are. Magic always fascinated humans, even so it has it spooky side (or exactly because of the spooky side). Because of this fascination it became easily part of our stories. Fantasy. But most things in witchcraft happen in the head. Spells and Potions from these fantasy stories are brought to live and into reality by the Pop Cultural Witch, not exactly and to 100%, but you can see the connection and the inspiration they found. Maybe some even found their way to real witchcraft through the Pop Cultur?

- Art Witch

These witches are artists. Drawing, sketching, writing, sewing, singing and many other things with their Art they not only express themselfs, but bring their magic into the world.

- Music / Rythmis Witch

The sound of a heartbeat, a poem, drumbs or even just dancing and so much more is part of this witchcraft. Rythm is in their lives and their magic, a real beat. Loud or quite, it doesn’t matter. They will bewitch you with their beat and sound of their magic.

- Color Witch

The Colors of the wind. Well, yes. These witches are colorful. Their favourite color? Better buckle up for a lecture over two hours long, about colors and their meanings and the intentions they have. These witches know their colors. When you know one, look at their clothes they are showing you, the colors will gladly tell you what is currently on your friends mind and happening in their live.

- Sigil Witch

Sigils are the key and shield for these witches. If old ones or just created from the spot. There is hardly a situation this witch will not have a sigil ready to be drawn. And if they encounter one, they will create just the right one.

Well. That was the list. For now.

My head is mushy and is running in circles, I bet yours is not different.

If I did get anything wrong, I am terrible sorry. Just comment or write to me about it and I will correct it. After all, learning from each other is one of the most important things we can do.

By the way, It could be that there are spelling and gramma errors. My mother language is not english, and I was not very good while I was in school. Now I am catching up, by reading and listening and watching almost everything on english. But writing it is quite different. So just correct me and I will be able to get better at it, too.

I do hope I could help a little with this list and didn’t bring more confusion...

Until next time, my dear ones.

Your hexellent learning witch.
