Have Some Decorum And Maintain Tradition!!!!

Recently it's come to my attention that some of you have lost your damn mind,

Start lying on the dead and that's my sign to leave.

I ain't tryin to be around it! If you don't love yourself, that's a personal problem. Nothing good ever happens to those who speak recklessly about the vengeful dead. Go be a dumbass somewhere else, around somebody else. I ain't tryin to hang around and wait for nig-nogs to get randomly struck by lightning.

Keep that bad juju over there !!!!!!!!

Some negroes have no concept of protective boundaries, respect or good spiritual hygiene. Just running around on dumb vibes and sheer audacity. If you're always chaos bound and pointing fingers, laughing at the spirit of death, you're literal crash test dummy!

🙅‍♀️🙅‍♀️ No Thank You🙅‍♀️🙅‍♀️

As for me and my house? We know how to avoid the Plague! We don't invite the spirit of Malach Hamavet in. We cleanse, rebuke and close the door so the spirit of death and ill fortune, passes over us.

i aint gon say it no mo

Put some respect on their names! Or don't. It's your funeral!

Just don't be seeking out my sympathy when your life is suddenly derailed. You brought it on yourself. Don't get caught slipping!

Respect and tradition goes a long way!

barbie out!

Sophian Druidry, to me, is a quiet, rare, and deeply personal spiritual path. It is eclectic, evolving, and rooted in wisdom, nature, and spiritual growth rather than rigid doctrine.

I believe nature is a living system filled with spirit, meaning, and relationship. The forests, rivers, seasons, soil, and cycles of life are not lifeless matter, but sacred expressions of a deeper living intelligence. Nature is both teacher and mirror, guiding balance, transformation, and renewal.

My path is inspired by Celtic Druidry while centered around Sophia - not as a distant deity, but as living Wisdom and the Divine Feminine presence within creation. Some may call her a guide. Some may call her a goddess. To me, she is sacred wisdom itself: the quiet intelligence within nature, the world-soul, and the inner knowing that awakens through experience.

Sophian Druidry, as I understand it, is a harmony between esotericism and animism. It honors intuition and knowledge, spirit and earth, awakening and grounding. It is a path devoted to balance, nature, wisdom, knowledge, and spiritual evolution.

I believe life continues beyond death through cycles of rebirth and spiritual growth. The soul evolves, learns, and awakens over time, becoming more aware of its true essence. Death is not an ending, but a transformation - a return to the greater flow of life, nature, and wisdom.

Ultimately, I believe the soul rejoins the greater spiritual reality: a living, peaceful realm of endless green fields, forests, rivers, mist, islands, twilight light, and an eternal spring of presence and harmony.

In this return, the soul is not erased. It remains itself - connected yet distinct. More real, more whole, and less limited than in physical form.

To me, Sophian Druidry is a sacred way of living in gentle harmony with the earth, seeking wisdom, honoring nature as alive, and evolving spiritually with intention. It is the understanding that the same living essence flowing through nature, the cosmos, and the cycles of life also lives within my soul.

A little about me:

I am a married 💍. I also am a mother 💙💙. I love EDM 🎧 and Romantasy books 📚. And I have cats and a dog, but love all animals. I was an esthetician 🧖🏽‍♀️ when I had a career outside of being a homemaker, and my aspiration in life now is to garden 🪴 , create skin care products 🧴, have somewhat of an apothecary 🧪, and get back into creating art 🎨.

Also, last but not least, I am a Sophian Druid Hedge Witch🌹, which is the focus on this tumblr.

————-

Since I am diving deeply into my spirituality I am hoping to connect more with women who are spiritual, esoteric, philosophical, witches, pagans, occultists, animists, astrologers, healers, mystics, shamanic practitioners, druids, medicine people, curanderos, light workers, lore-keepers,and other like-minded souls.

————-

I’m deeply drawn to the Divine Feminine, wisdom, and nature. I practice healing, cleansing, and protection work. And tend to use folk magic and root work.

However I am focusing more on intuition, dream and realm travel as I progress in my studies. Probably because my Sun (who I am) and mercury (how my mind speaks) are Pisces.

My spiritual gifts are that I am a Spirit seer, Prophetic dreamer, Hedge rider (realm walker), a Guardian, an Anchor, and I have strong intuition/empathy.

————-

I have touched on researching the development of different religions. I was raised Christian but truthfully nature spoke to me from a young age. I have briefly studied Gnosticism, Judeo-Christian Mysticism, Solomonic Magic, American folk magic, and African Spiritualities. For a while there I became very esoteric, but nature has called me back for good. Currently, I am deep diving into my Celtic heritage. I have labeled myself as Christo-pagan, Christian Witch, Christian mystic, Rose mystic, and pre-orthodox (pre the church) Christian in my life. Now I have de-constructed and follow a nature centered spirituality.

I’m more of a solitary practitioner, but I’m always open to circles and doing ritual work with others. Inspiration and relationship are key to life for me. I have studied many religions, beliefs, and kinds of magic in my life. But have more recently settled on my true path. As previously stated I am a Sophian Druid, and in my path we believe in being inspired, creating, and inspiring others in return. It is a somewhat rare and eclectic path.

Connection and energy exchange is a big part of my life. I believe we are all threads in the tapestry of life.

Disclaimer

Druidry is a nature-centered spiritual and philosophical path focused on wisdom, relationship, inspiration, and living in balance with the natural world. Hedge Witchcraft is a personal magical practice focused on spirit work, folk traditions, liminal spaces, and walking between worlds. Both tend to be flexible and individualized, allowing personal relationships with nature, spirits, ancestors, and the divine. Ethics often center on balance, reciprocity, responsibility, and connection. While some people may assume this makes me Wiccan, Wicca is a separate religion with more defined ritual structures and often a God/Goddess polarity. Similar paths can overlap without being the same path.

Blessed Be Seeker of the Arcane,

Thank you for asking!

Uncrossing spell oils do have their origins in Hoodoo & African American folk magic. The metaphysical term of Uncrossing is defined by the removal of Crossed Conditions (ie; blockages, stagnant energy, challenges, curses, jinxes and hexes) in African American folk magic. While the practice of Hoodoo itself is closed to outsiders, sometimes it is okay for outsiders to purchase Uncrossing oils and other Hoodoo items from African American practitioners for their own personal use, if you are not African American.

If you are familiar with the book Hoodoo, Conjuration, Witchcraft & Rootwork by Harry Middleton Hyatt, some of you already know that African Americans have been selling Hoodoo items, mojos and spell oils to both African Americans, fellow Hoodoos & other non-African Americans for the past 200 yrs. This is actually a very well-documented historical fact.

Here are few screenshots about this from Hoodoo, Conjuration, Witchcraft & Rootwork for future reference and Hoodoo history's sake:

Many of African American Hoodunsi and Louisiana Kreyols were able to sustain a living and their livelihoods by maintaining this intersection and this truly has not changed in modern times. As long as you are not using those items to unfairly hurt an African American it IS okay for you to purchase items from African American witch shops for your own personal use, unless specified otherwise by that specific witch shop. If you have any concerns, feel free to message a shop owner directly and I guarantee they will QUICKLY let you know if it is appropriate to patronize their shop. However please keep in mind, that you are not owed anything and be on your best behavior, doing your absolute best to be respectful when doing so.

I wouldn't use any Hoodoo magical items that you've purchased for baneful or unjust purposes on other African Americans because it can backfire severely. A great deal of Hoodoo items are made under the watchful eyes of spirit and the ancestors, so it's best not to play with fire in that regard.

Spending your money at any variety of African American Hoodoo shops should not be controversial but unfortunately it is and this is rightfully so due to racial tensions and these unprecedented times. This has honestly led to a great deal of witchy cultural appropriation by non-African Americans and thievery, because there has always been a demand for these items that used to be met and supplied but recently there have been many false rumors, that purchasing items from Hoodunsi or African Americans is not okay and appropriative.

I personally am of the belief, that this rumor was spread on purpose so that others could financially exploit and steal from African Americans, slowing down business to steal additional profits for themselves, after subtly causing all this infighting as a distraction. This rumour has always simply been an all-out bald-headed lie, especially when we go back to actually look at the history for reference.

As a self-proclaimed historical preservationist of Hoodoo, I will not stand for ANY historical revisionism, when it comes to Hoodoo, Rootwork & Conjure. I always do my very best to deal in truth and facts, painstakingly refining and re-correcting if any mistakes have been made. I am deeply passionate about maintaining the integrity of Hoodoo’s history and its gotten me into trouble a few times.

Here's a cool but little-known metaphysical fact:

A strong majority (but not all) of spell oils, recipes and potions on the western wiccan and pagan marketplace currently can actually trace their origins from Traditional African American Folk Magic , Conjure & Hoodoo recipes. Up the power in your witchy arsenal by going directly to the source.

Remember in order to practice Hoodoo, you must be African American but purchasing items from a Hoodunsi or supporting an African American witch shop, does not mean you are practicing Hoodoo.

Hoodoo is a bloodline genetic practice, the only way to practice Hoodoo is if you have African American heritage.

If you've finally made it to this part,

Thanks for reading and joining me on this brief history lesson on African American folk magic. Also thanks again for asking me a genuinely interesting question.

I hope this was helpful for you,

For the last several months the yoni space has been a more highlighted area of focus within myself and my clients. I always push the importance of genital wellness, but lately I’ve had to push it more.

My ceremony was private today, but I will share this art and these divine messages.

It’s mentioned here and there by others that we should take better care of our womb space. It’s great that we are paying attention to it more and more when it comes to sexual partners and self love, but y’all… what else is knotted up in there: bad gossip, sexual abuse, spiritual abuse, evil eye, etc?

Literally, most of my current clients are being assisted with toxic generational patterns, PTSD, and even black magick being trapped in the womb.
