I'm go✞ℍ

I work in a flower shop, and floral wire is a lifesaver. If you’re going to be using flowers for anything where they won’t be in water (flower crowns, corsages,etc) and a stem breaks, you can rewire it back together due to the thin-but-strong nature of them.

I suggest ones that are long and flat rather than ones wrapped around a coil. You can cut them to any length you need, and when you twist it around a stem or the base of a flower, you don’t have to worry about it falling off. I use this stuff for everything. One of my necklaces is held together with a small piece of floral wire right now because I lost the clasp and I trust it completely.

If you want to curse with bee ingredients, you can make a stinging or swarming hex. A sting hex would be more of a retribution. Someone fucked with you? You go gung-ho and sting them! It will itch, and hurt, and swell.  

Runes and their meanings; a discussion.

So I’m working on a project, and I’m talking about rune Stones. Now, runes are my preferred method of divination. They always called out to me, so when I got the chance I ordered a beautiful set, and got to work on looking up what each one meant.

I did a lot of looking at sites and cross checking what each one said, looked in every book I could find– but here’s the kicker. I really only wrote down the correspondences that FELT right to me. I would read it, and felt as though the rune itself told me, “yes that’s what I am. This is what I mean.” As well, many runes have a couple different potential meanings, and in individual readings I follow my intuition on which meaning the rune means to take. (Of course I take into account the runes that fall around it.)

Hey lovely witches! I wanted to share some of my PDF witchy books I have on my computer. I know it’s hard to find these books and not everyone has money to buy them or easy access. I hope I can help someone with this <3

Most of the books are on my google drive library, you can click on the link and then download if you’d like to.

Raymon Buckland IS A BIG NO.

He is the right hand man of the creator of Wicca and a hard believer(it’s in his big book of witchcraft) that the God & Goddess are the only deities and have been around since the beginning of time. Any deity or religion that came after is essentially the God & Goddess which gives him and anyother Wiccan under his practice the rights to use it. I had a whole a whole post on him and Gardenia Wicca on my old blog@thewitchofthenorse before it was deleted. It’s super gender normative, het-focused, and extremely sexual. /HE IS NOT MINOR OR LGBT FRIENDLY/

I would highly suggest not reading Norse Magic if you’re new to Norse paganism or looking for historically based practices! I honestly just scrolled through it but there’s a bunch of misinformation about the realms, gods and practices in like the… four minutes I looked. D.J Conway has pretty much always been known to be historically inaccurate.

Christopher Penczak is known for using Jewish practices and rituals in his writing despite being raised Catholic(and going to Catholic schools growing up) and never actually being converted or doing any of the process. He also constantly references voodoo and hoodoo to the point of actually having chapters about how readers(White ppl included) can learn to practice(check the Mystic Foundation). Not to mention literally every other culture he appropriates: “…practices witchcraft blended with the wisdom of mystic traditions from across the globe.” <- His about me in his books. I’m happy we have an openly gay witch writing books for us whatever but he constantly promotes other white authors who are making thousands of dollars a year off of black & native magic.

Pagan Spells by “author unknown” is by Al Selden Leif(it says at the bottom of the document. I couldn’t find anything on this author because this is presumably not their actual name & only publish through google docs.

Natural Magic, by Pamela J.Ball is literally spends the first quarter of the book on how to appropriate black & native cultures and the continues to take credit to their magic & rituals later in the book.. so..

It’s a tradition that’s been used by the First People of Turtle Island for centuries, and if y'all non-natives want to use it, there’s some guidelines that you gotta follow.

•buy smudge wands and materials from tribal members. We’re sharing this gift with you, be respectful. It’s like legitimately purchasing a song vs ripping it from the internet. But instead of pirating Rihanna it’s Culture Appropriation.

•remember that YOU’RE BORROWING FROM A CLOSED CULTURE. It’s not yours, we’re letting you use it.

•it’s not a toy, or a game, or something to toss in with your own spiritual expression. Be mindful of the fact that smudging isn’t yours, and it’s a gift that’s being shared with you from a culture that, let’s be real, was probably oppressed/genocided by yours, in the name of education and solidarity.

Do other cultures have the concept of burning herbs/incense/etc for religious and ceremonial rites? Absolutely! That does not make it smudging though. They have their own ideas about how such things are done, what herbs/etc are used and why, and what they call their practice.
