fairy lights and starry skies

Politicians take note. Even the most acrimonious of rivalries can be set aside.

I saw a fly crawling on the wall, and I said, “Wow! Suppose a person had the power to stick to a wall like an insect.” So I was often running and I thought, “What do I call him?” I tried Mosquito Man—that didn’t have any glamour. Insect Man—that was even worse. I went down the line and I got to Spider-Man! It sounded mysterious and dramatic. And lo, a legend was born!

And here we are, cheerfully playing along, sounding reasonably competent — but everyone, when they have the attention to spare, is keeping an eye on the tuba players. They don’t come in for the first eight measures or so, and then when they do come in, what we see is:

[stifled giggling]

[reeeeeeally deep breath]

[COLOSSAL FOGHORN NOISE]

The entire band stops dead, in the cacophonous kind of way that a band stops when it hasn’t actually been cued to stop. The band director doesn’t even say anything, just looks straight back at the tubas and makes a helpless sort of why gesture.

-Draw sigils into candles and light them with intent (i.e “I am tired” “I feel happy”)

-if you don’t know any sigils draw simple symbols (heart for self love, a star for wishes, a smile for happy)`  

-Make moon-water and keep it in a tiny spray bottle

-Stir your tea clockwise for invoking and counter-clockwise for banishing

-Get a nice rock,( or a feather, even be a piece of yarn) that you like and keep it with you for good vibes (or you can charm it!)

-Make sure to take care of yourself, this one isn’t particularly witch related but it’s good advice.

-Burn candles for all reasons 

-Use sigils while cooking
