[thewitchwench]

As we gently emerge from the transformation of winter, it is time to think about the seeds we are sowing this imbolc. I've spent the day battling back the garden so I can plant what we want out there and battling the boring adult work behind running our Forest School for Grown-Ups we only need 1 more sign up to go ahead on the 11th. That last job really took it out of me so I'm balancing it out with some meditating and Divination for myself. For more in Imbolc, its traditions and rituals to support your practice. Head over to the Bl0g. . . . . . #witch #witch🔮 #solitarywitch #paganwitch #instawitch #greenwitch #hearthwitch #hedgewitch #paganpride #heathen #kitchenwitch #witchlife #witchcraft #modernwitch #witchaesthetic #norsepagan #celticpagan #priestess #witchschool #oldways #goth #tarotspread #tarot #imbolc (at Totnes) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoIe5LnLcmQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

after a few big life changes, veronica thought it was time to make a big change to herself~

[ianitos]

"you can't be a therian that's--" "you cant worship XX amount of gods that's--" "you cant use tarot it's demonic--" "you HAVE to cast a circle otherwise--" "you cant worship the roman pantheon theyre a COPY--"

why does it matter. there's a fine line between well-intended advice and spewing hatred for something that is not your own. if no one's getting harmed (harm includes appropriation) - then who cares. let people journey their path.

After years of keeping his people hidden, Bellamy knows witches like him are rare... dark witches like Clarke Griffin even moreso. The last thing he wants is to get involved, but fate has other plans: when they accidentally realize how much stronger their powers are together.

Day 4: Fog.

another fic using the “fog” prompt for day 4 selfshiptober. this one is set in my witch’s familiar au!

The call had been strong, insistent; impossible to ignore both for its magnitude and for the curiosity such magnitude is wont to evoke. I pad through the night, barely visible amongst shadows, sleek black in entirety except for the glinting green of my eyes which reflect a ghostly yellow through the fog. I don’t know where I’m going, but I know it’s the right way. I hope I’m the first one there. I hope whoever I find deems me worthy of the bond.

A woman with red hair sits at a table on her porch, one leg crossed over the other, sipping from an ornate teacup. Waiting. There’s an almost tangible ripple of energy around her. She’s the one I seek. And with no other hopefuls in sight, it seems I do have a chance to claim my prize, should she find me fit for purpose.

I sit at the bottom of the porch steps, tail curled around paws, looking up at her patiently. Patience is important; no witch wants a demanding familiar. Obedience, good temperament, willingness to serve. She notices me a moment later and a slow smile grows on her face.

“Felt the call, did you, dear?”

My head tilts slightly and I blink once, slowly. I don’t move from where I sit. If this goes well, I’ll be doing a lot of waiting for her to command me, so I might as well get a head start.

“Aye, thought so,” she continues, taking my obedience as confirmation. “Come here, then. Let me see you.”

As bidden, I trot up the steps and make my way towards her, then jump up onto the spare chair - she can get a proper look at me without hunching down this way. Her brows quirk in something like amusement and she gives me a once over. She reaches out, offering her hand, which I bunt gently; something about her touch feels right as she rewards me with a quick scratch behind the ear, but I withhold a purr. I don’t want to come on too strong.

“Well, you certainly look up to snuff this way,” she says, and I sit up a little straighter at the praise. “Show me the other.”

A light mist semi-obscures my form from vision as it twists, contorts, grows into something else. When it clears, dissipating into the evening fog, I sit opposite her passably human rather than passably feline, though I'm truly neither.

The witch’s gaze gives nothing away, but I'm careful not to squirm under her scrutiny. It’s a test, the whole thing. And she won’t have me if I don’t meet her standards.

“Have you had a witch before?” she asks.

“Never,” I reply, concise and to the point.

“But you’re willing?”

“I am. I will accept the bond if you offer it.”

I cringe internally at my eagerness, which could easily translate as desperation. Which it is, in a way; I'm verging towards the latter end of the acceptable age for a familiar to remain unclaimed and I'm keen to remedy it. Be that as it may, some witches don’t want desperate.

This witch, though, doesn’t seem put off. In fact, it almost looks like there’s something akin to triumph behind her eyes, but it could just be a trick of the light.

“My name is Rowena.”

“Rowena...” I repeat it back to her and notice how easily the syllables fall from my mouth.

“Mm,” she hums in approval, “and yours?”

The final test. Rowena doesn’t seem like some infant witch having her first dabble in the arts. She must know a familiar is nameless until its witch bestows upon it a designation.

“You tell me,” I reply.

The right answer, if her pleased smile is anything to go by.

“Hm. I think you’ll do nicely.”

Could you do a crow reader? Like they got the wings, love shiny things, I’d imagine like star magic and I’ve read that crows have a lot of anxiety. Overall, a poor anxious crow who’s probably scared of the platonic yans 🪦

Ooooo, poor Crow Witch! Reader! They'd definitely have extra anxiety due to the platonic yans, not to mention being an obvious hybrid. With star magic (I'm going to say reading the stars and finding out future events, maybe making small stars, being able to make wishes on stars, by making a special charm that as long as you have it, grants whatever you wished). May I call you Crow Anon?? Let's try it like this:

• Being a bird hybrid was hard. Always wanting to collect shiny objects, constantly having to keep your feathers clean, trying to keep a neat and tidy shop, trying to not get aggressive or anxious with less-than-polite humans... You certainly had your work cut out for you.

• You had the magic of the stars on your side. Being able to make small stars, make wish-granting star charms, even being able to divine future events or moments from the stars. Not to mention stars were quite popular with humans and hybrids alike, so you were never out of business! But... you had had some... new... customers come in... And they acted really odd around you.

• They weren't mean, nonono! Yet whenever you mentioned a mean customer or sour anti-hybrid protestor or recounted a past problem- they got this strange look in their eyes, a dark look, as though they were plotting on how to, well, destroy whatever had caused you grief. But that's crazy! But still...

• The moment they found out about your wishing star charms, they'd asked if they could purchase some. It wasn't much issue to ring them up and package them, nor to give careful instructions on how they worked... You even mentioned you had one or two on you...

• After that, things got better for you! Any mean customers suddenly seem to have an attitude adjustment, any anti-hybrid bigots dissappear, and your business is even more popular than it was before! You wonder if maybe your odd customers had something to do with it... Nah. Why waste a wish on a little shop with a spooked crow? Yet you can't help but wonder if maybe you're worrying about the the thing...

• You see them more often, your weird customers who always talk to you and pull you away to explain an item to them, who never leave you alone when they're around. They seem happier, perhaps almost smug, in a way. They don't mention what they wished for, but they do ask if perhaps you have made any wishes yourself...

• You had before... but those wishes were... well, they weren't the sort you admit to having made. They were for protection, from well- everything. One to protect against homophobes, one to protection against muggers, one to protect against robbers, one to keep you safe from drowning, one to keep you safe from fire... Even one to protect you from perverts and the worst of humans and hybrids... But... If you mentioned those, then someone wouod know, then someone could wish they weren't with you or that they broke, and then you'd be unsafe, and then-!

• You worried, okay? You didn't make it this far without being cautious.

• The problem happens when a rival, a human witch, pops up, and tries to... "partner"... with you. When they dont take no for an answer, they threatened you, saying they could enchant you to be loyal to only them, or curse you to go blind, or they could make you into a real crow-! When your new friends suddenly appear, eyes darker than before and smiling sharply, they offer to handle the rude witch... The rude witch had paled, yet stopped fighting and snapping... And when your friends take them away, well...

• You realize that you might need to add an extra protection wish... The question is... is it for them or is it for you?

Waiitttt.... I thought of smth for @cheerleaderman 's Fairytale Au...

SO. Constance is a wicked witch who's feared by the townsfolk. The king says that she has stolen his daughter and taken her to her tower in the woods, so the king orders Sebek to kill her and bring the princess home.

Once Sebek makes it to Constance's tower, he finds out that she's just like any other villager in his town; taking care of her tiny farm, feeding her animals, and helping out the people (or in her case, fairies) around her. On top of that, Sebek finds out that the princess is perfectly fine and lives with Constance after she fled from the king due to him not approving of her lover.

Sebek learns from the princess that Constance is misunderstood and antagonized by the kingdom. They see an evil witch, but Constance is just a sorcerer who was outcast due to being the only magic-user in the kingdom.

Sebek is still slightly suspicious in the princesses words, but he agrees to let her stay with Constance. Then suddenly, Constance finds Sebek and yells at him for breaking into her home. Sebek tries to leave, but Constance doesn't want to let him off the hook so easily. She decides to make a deal with him.

Sebek will stay in her tower for three months as compensation for breaking in. During that time, Sebek will fix the damages to her home and tend to her garden and such. In return, Constance will turn herself in to the king (after the three months) and face her punishment.

During the three months, Sebek learns more and more about Constance, and he ends up falling in love.

I uuhhhhh haven't thought of the rest yet 😭😭😭😭

Reminder to witches that is possible to be spiritual while not be ableist!

I am wheelchair user, was Christmas shopping other day and went to book shop. Looking at spirituality section and another woman there too. Completely unprompted started talking about how she watched videos (or something) of out of body experiences. Apparently seen people be ‘healed’ while having these experiences? Examples she gave were blind people being able to see, even pointed at me and said ‘people in wheelchair get up and walk’! As an ambulatory user was tempted to get up and stand just to shut her up, but was worried about reaction and also had lots of stuff on lap.

Don’t ever say things like that to disabled people! Especially not strangers? Promise we don’t want to hear about being healed from random person.

angel is preparing for the little one's arrival in his own special way it seems.

as the school year begins here's a couple of magical tips:

drink celestial water (promotes creativity, focus, energy, confidence)

carry amethyst, tigers eye, & carnelian with you

write sigils in your notebooks to promote clarity, success, & focus

take healthy snacks (like sunflower seeds, pistachios, fruits & veggies! these are healthy for you and promote positive benefits spiritually)

put lemon or strawberry in your water

enchant your pens/pencils!

wear essential oils (lava rock beads or other means of carrying such as balms) to promote focus and calmness

make good luck charms (can be bracelets, rings, a keychain, etc)

have a good school year :]
