SLEEP IS FOR THE WEAK

Esme Cullen headcanons that don’t revolve around her being just a mom

She’s always painting when she has to chance. There’s an extra room in the house where she paints and just keeps her paintings. She doesn’t enjoy displaying it because it’s something she likes keeping to herself. Her favorite color to paint with is yellow

One thing that she always has loved to do since she was a little girl was dance. She has mastered the foxtrot, waltz, tango, swing, and jive. She’s still working on the quickstep. 

She loves taking classes here and there at local colleges. Her favorite class that she took was principals of marketing. 

She’’s planning on starting a degree in marketing eventually. Because she wants to own a non-profit. Her only worry is that soon people are gonna realize that she’s not aging

Esme is a regular customer at the local bookstore in Port Angeles. The workers wonder how she goes through so many books so fast. She always has a small smile and says “I’m a fast reader.”

THIS SHIT WORKS OKAY, I AM DEAD SERIOUS.

I know I’m leaving out some stuff so feel free to add on with your own ideas, tips, types, and how to’s!

This is by no means all encompassing, but as someone who specializes in crystals, I can say that these are the most basic stones that every witch will want in their supplies.

Clear Quartz🌟 - This crystal can be used for literally anything and is very easy to program with your intent. Stock up on this stone because it can be used in replacement of any crystal in a spell. It is also a great stone to use if you really want to give your will a big boost, because clear quartz amplifies everything. And the best part is if you’re worried about your local crystal shops sources, you can find this stone naturally in just about any creek bed that has gravel patches.

Rose Quartz💘 - The stone of love of yourself and others. This is another handy stone to have because not only can it help encourage self-esteem, but it can bring love your way. Familial, platonic, or romantic. It won’t discriminate based on what you want or need.

Amethyst🔮 - A great stone to use if you’re looking for inner peace in your life. This stone brings about a soothing environtment and helps to keep you calm and collected. And for any aspiring psychics out there, this is the perfect stone to start training your third eye. Good for any spell where raw spiritual energy is needed.

Smokey Quartz⛰ - A really good stone to keep you grounded and connected to the psyichal plane in times of high stress. It takes negative energy and cleanses it before releasing it back into the world. Placing it at the feet opens a protective circle.

Hematite⚔️ - A good stone to use if you have issues with anger. It can help promote level headed thinking, especially in times of stress. Also a very good protection stone, carrying it in your pocket creates a ward/barrier around yourself to keep out negativity.

Sunstone☀️ - A great stone for those struggling with depression, or having a lot of self worth issues (!!this does not replace a doctor and medicine!!)) Its the stone of the sun and brings with it happiness and joy.

Moonstone🌕 - A stone of great love and sympathy, is helps foster positive energies and emotions. Bringing you closer to your feminine side, this is the stone of the moon. Also another good stone for those aspirings psychics!

Labradorite✨ - My absolute favorite stone that’s great from beginners because it can help light your path in the craft. It can bring you inspiration and helps you think outside the box.

Sodalite📚 - The stone of logic and intuition. A very good piece to have for all the baby witches and students, because it can keep you focused when researching and studying. Can also aid in soothing a panick attack.

Turquoise💊 - This is a very good general healing stone, and good to have for my healers out there. (!!this does not replace a doctor or medicine!!)) It can also help bring friendship.

-bless your morning tea/coffee every day. Set an intention like, “I am confident and happy, and I love myself” whilst stirring it, then tap the spoon on the mug 3 times to seal it.

-look at your crystals and pick one that matches your needs. Tell the crystal what you’d like to attain from it. Carry it around!

-bless your water before you drink it. Just say “blessed be” and imagine a purifying light shining through it.

-when my friends are sad, I like to send a blessing in my head towards them. “may X have protection and feel loved today”. Obviously you should also try and talk to them if you can, but this is a nice option too.

-make crystal elixirs by sticking a crystal into a jar of water overnight (or for a couple of hours). You can intensify your intention by putting a sigil onto the jar as well. Remember to research the crystals to make sure they’re safe in water first!

-do you spend a lot of time on your phone? Try to put it down for 5 minutes before bed time and just BE. It’s technically meditating but call it whatever you want! Put some selenite in your hand to help purify your energy even more.

-speaking of meditating, when you’re travelling somewhere, try to look around you and find bits of natural life to look at. Quiet your mind and try to focus on those things.

-when you shower, visualise the water washing off all of the bad energies, and sending them down the drain!

-drink herbal tea that corresponds to your intentions.

-open your window at least once a day to cleanse the room and make it feel lighter!

-practise self-care in any form if you are able. Self care truly is witchcraft.

🔮 The Moon goes ‘Wax on, Wan off’

🔮 White Candles, Clear Quartz, Rosemary and Roses can be a substitute for anything

🔮 Do research on your Deities and Divine beings so you don’t accidentally offend them

🔮 Before you start doing spells and rituals, make sure you got bath magick, tea magick, and sigils down pat

🔮 Clockwise is for positive things, such as summonings, and Counter-clockwise is for negative things, such as banishings

🔮 If your ritual/spell/potion goes wrong, Don’t Panic. Finish it and make sure to Cleanse and Bless the area strongly afterward. If you are still in doubt or if the problem consists, consult an older or more experienced witch

🔮 Never doubt your own power, you are more powerful than you realize, so be careful!

Dollar store candles are the best, and I absolutely adore them! Tealights, votives, tapers, jar candles, etc are all at dollar stores. Electric candles are also good choices for people who can’t have things burning.

Incense is also a popular find at dollar stores now. To avoid buying an incense burner, I fill a jar or cup with rice and place burning sticks inside.

Buy a letter opener! It can be used as a cheap athame, and it can look really nice if you wrap twine around the handle ;)

Some dollar stores sell cute teeny-tiny wine glasses. These make great chalices!

Use fake flowers to decorate your altar.

Buy little bowls to use as offering dishes.

Fragrance oils can make lovely gifts to deities. They can also work as consecration or blessing oils if needed.

Little dollar store notebooks can be decorated to be used for grimoires/ books of shadows.

The air freshening sprays can be used to cleanse and area (especially if they have corresponding scents)
