This body deserves pleasure.

This body,

At any weight, shape, and size

With every curve, scar, and fold

As is

Granny magic is a blend of folk magic, herbalism, homesteading, midwifery, and more. Celtic settlers blended their own traditions and practices with the knowledge of many Native tribes regarding the mountains, land, herbs/plants, and animals.

These women, often referred to as grannies, served as doctors, nurses, teachers, and spiritual protectors of their communities. The hollers were even more secluded then, and some folks settled so deep in the mountains traveling to town to get checked out by a doctor wasn’t really possible. So, when sickness fell upon you, granny made it better.

I plan to post about some of the rituals, superstitions, etc once I get more comfortable on this app. 😅😅

It goes without saying that granny magic is also heavily influenced by many African practices and knowledge as well, like most things in the U.S. In fact, it’s an intrinsic part of Appalachian history & culture in general. There were and still are many Black granny witches who served their communities fiercely and honorably. Many of these women brought with them their own spiritual practices (like Vodou and Juju) and knowledge to the mountains. Over time, a beautiful amalgamation of magic was constructed.

It’s important to note that practices such as Vodou, Hoodoo, Santeria, smudging, Shinto, and more are CLOSED practices and you cannot just simply participate in them.

Granny magic is also undoubtedly inspired by Christianity as well. Many witches use the Bible to teach, heal, and communicate with their ancestors. Some of these women might be hesitant to call themselves witches though, at least in my personal experience. I grew up in a strict Pentecostal community, and witch was a bad word. But what they do makes them witches to me, so what the hell! To each their own!

A couple of times, I did this with some subjects who I've been hypnotizing for years and years and thus I had developed all sorts of ways to put them under. I went through each method I could think of, and each time, they ended up getting needier and needier for trance, wanting to drop and sink so badly for me. I would say that they had the freedom to do anything they wanted, except sinking into a deep trance for me. One subject who I did this with, Fennikal, would say to himself "yeah, this one will work" each time I went to a new method, which was really really fun!

Another subject often chants a mantra I've ingrained in her head automatically whenever I say it, or even whenever she drops for me. But when I trance edged her and I had her chant her mantra, she kept chanting automatically even though it wasn't dropping her, to the point where it looked like it had become a stim for her. It was pretty frustrating for her (in a good way) and that was extremely fun to see.

I even one time was talking to someone who told me about how easily they dropped for pretty much anyone and (even though I probably should've had a more in-depth pretalk beforehand) despite only having met her that day, I started to trance edge her for a couple of hours via just vibes and being able to read her like a book. She was kind of dropping in this light trance state, prevented from going any deeper, and she became super submissive, just wanting to sink for me. It was super duper fun and I really wanna do another session with her 'cause we didn't talk much afterwards, haha
