Who Am I

Cecilia/Lia, tbh I don’t care much what you call me except for variations of CC (please don’t)

Prefer they/them pronouns but any are okay

Pisces Sun, Aquarius Moon, Virgo Rising

Not a new to witchcraft, just new to talking about it on the internet (long time lurker tho)

Not Wiccan

Tbh I don’t really have a name for what I am so I use some different ones kinda randomly

I literally live in a cabin in (actually next to) the woods and I take my position as weird witchy woods person very seriously

I live in the Missouri Ozarks (in the foothills) and I like to connect my craft to that

Also some limited pantheon/deity stuff, mostly Roman and Germanic/Norse, but more as like…a face for greater things than an actual 1:1 experience

Unfortunately culturally Christian, and while my craft mostly avoids that unless it’s folk stuff or research stuff, I can’t deny that it probably influences/biases me in some areas so…yeah (I grew up Methodist and also have very mixed feelings about the denomination specifically, but this isn’t the time to get into that)

I also don’t like saying what “type” of witch I am per se, but I do like to categorize the different types of magic/work that I do and I think that makes things easier for tags

Some variation of an animist

I’m an adult and I have a tendency to be pretty blunt about what’s going on in my life and that might sometimes include adult stuff (not in like a porn way, just in a very open way) and also curse a lot so uh yeah idk just if occasional batshit posts about sexuality/substances/taxes/whatever are going to bother you then you might skip along idk

Weird self development bs while I try and become a more functional human being

What Is This Blog

Primarily a place to have ideas and inspiration written out as well as progress of stuff I’m working on

Maybe eventually mini tarot reading because I’m working on building that up but idk yet

Probably some writing stuff, though it’ll be largely related to nonfiction/magical writing

Probably a lot of aesthetic reblogs

Probably a lot of reblogs in general tbh

Probably gardening/plant stuff

Maybe some recipes/spells that I’m working on just to have them concentrated in one spot

Lots of divination in general tbh

Some astrology stuff/magical timing stuff

Folklore/Fairytales/Cryptids/etc (these aren’t all the same I just have too many bullet points already)

Elemental stuff

Probably some fiber arts

Weird personal beliefs about different things (will be tagged appropriately)

Probably some queer shit idk

Maybe some occasional art, we’ll see

Uhhh

As a general rule I don’t think DNI’s work super well and will probably just block people I don’t like but I’ll just cover the bases of racists/homophobes/sexists/transphobes/you get the gist

Other than that just don’t interact if you’re from northern missouri and we’ll be all good (/j)

That’s a giant wall of text but that’s about it. Always down for messages and asks and what have you

I did practice a little too, it’s been a hot minute since I did any crochet

I can do the basic stitches but the minute I need to do another row I forget how to turn things and I fuck up lol

But still

Good to practice

There’s a few things I’m not so sure about, but I’m taking this year as a learning year with where I am and what kind of conditions I have, so I’m trying to not take any losses or anything too hard. That said though, I don’t want to jinx it, but for the most part it’s doing pretty well!

I decided to go with plant starts for the most part this year and only ended up doing a few things from seed, mostly as a combination of being busy and somewhat lazy

I’ve gotten several cherry tomatoes so far, and there are many more on the plants that are still growing/ripening, as well as a bunch of green romas that I’m hoping will start ripening soon

Plus a couple of jalapeños and one little bell pepper, all still fairly small and growing, but I’ve never had good luck with peppers so I was pleased they were fruiting at all

Nothing else is fruiting yet (which I wasn’t expecting it to) but my cucumber is covered in flowers rn so I am hopeful

I’ve got a fair number of herbs, most of which are doing pretty well (except for two chamomile starts I got at the farmer’s market, which I think might die tbh). I have 4 kinds of mint (well, 3+catnip if you like semantics) all in one long container in the hopes that they’ll keep each other relatively in check, and it’s actually working fairly well so far

“Protestants don’t do Lent” (it depends on the church/person ofc, and typically there are different rules than the Catholics have, but absolutely it’s still a thing)

“Protestants don’t care about saints” (although most don’t particularly pray to the saints or whatever, I have known Many protestants who definitely care, including some who have iconography of certain saints or find other ways to connect with them. They dont necessarily hold the same status as they do with catholics but that doesn’t mean all protestants completely ignore their existence)

“Catholic churches are the ones with stained glass windows” (ik this is usually a joke but it still irks me a little every time I see it lol. Like yes if you walk into a church and there are no stained glass windows it is probably more likely to be protestant than catholic but I have seen catholic churches without stained glass and I’ve seen many protestant churches with it)

We do have an exterminator coming (which freaks me out anyway tbh) but he can’t come til Monday

Also we’ve had some crazy weather today

Anyway

And they’ve got them all assigned to cards they would correspond to in like, a normal deck of cards

But i could totally adapt it to the major arcana I think?

I mean like, Sun, Moon, and Star are all in there already, so is Fool

“Skull” could easily be Death

I could see “Ruin” for the Tower maybe?

And “Flames” for the Devil

It’s called “Take Your Fucking Meds”

Components:

1. Your fucking meds

2. Food or drink or whatever you need to take your meds with

Steps:

1: TAKE YOUR FUCKING MEDS

2: do it again tomorrow

3: do it again the next day

4: repeat

5: when you have taken them long enough that you’re like “I probably don’t even need to take these anymore I feel so much better now I can totally stop caring about taking my meds”, find someone you trust to say that out loud to so they can tell you that you’re being dumb
