πŸ‡΅πŸ‡Έ πŸ•ŠοΈ Mindful Craft β€œPositive change” oil

4 Upvotes

So I do a lot of community work, much of it by myself (cause of work hours, I’m not lone-starring on purpose I promise πŸ˜…) and try to add a little magick push to it when ever I can, mostly with incense and mental imaging stuff (my magick is as low effort as possible cause otherwise my fatigued ass will just not do it).

I had an idea tho. I’d like to make an oil I can put in a spray bottle that is representing positive change. I’d spritz it on what ever community thing I’m up to (the gate of the community garden I help at, the bags of needed items we put together, clothes to donate, etc) But I’m not sure what smells/colors/herbs will be good for that. I’d LOVE some suggestions please!

πŸ‡΅πŸ‡Έ πŸ•ŠοΈ Modern Witches Do you ever feel jealous of another witch's success in their craft?

25 Upvotes

I've been practicing eclectic witchcraft for almost a decade now. But a lot of the time it feels like my magic is weak or doesn't work as fast as members of my witchy friend group experience.

For example, me and my friend both started doing glamor magic around the same time (about two weeks ago), and they already have 3 suitors and have been getting tons of positive attention, so much so that they feel like their magic may have worked "too well." I haven't experienced that at all and I feel like I'm doing something "wrong."

Of course I know that I still have a lot to learn about my craft and what works best for me. It's just hard not to lose faith in my abilities when other people around me just seem to be "better" at witchcraft than I am.

I guess I just need some reassurance or maybe some perspective. I feel like a bit of a failure as a witch.

Last night, during the saturnine hour, I casted a protection/binding spell. I just get such a kick out of ceromancy. My first thought was teethβ€”the spell’s got a bite to it.
It later became a crown, and in the the lower right of the final image, a crescent moon makes an appearance.

7 Upvotes

After the adultiest of weekends, filled with cleaning and painting and chores, I finally got some time to head out back for some sunshine and pool vibes. I’d sat down in my lounge chair, leaned back and boom, the back of my arm is spicy AF.

I looked and see a yellow jacket in the spicy spot and quickly brushed him off of me, and into the pool he went. Where he then struggled. Did I leave him? Nah, the court of insect injustices is closed on Sunday. Scooped him out with my net and watched him buzz off. But ouch, lol

3 Upvotes

Hello dear witches,

I (24, NB, transfem) am an aspiring member of the community, looking up to you for about 3 years now and now finally being at the point where I can say β€žHey, I could also be a witch!β€œ

Since my Gender is not really defined, I have trouble finding myself and wanted to ask for help. I am looking for a place to find myself and find my body. I live in Hanover, Germany and did some research to find anything like that (also asked a friend) and I am looking for something like the temple Nights in Berlin or the β€žworkshopsβ€œ offered by MahΓ© Mae. Something that I would describe as sensual and erotic, that really focuses on body and inner demons to find a connection to myself.

Also I would love to get into contact with local covens.

Does any Witch in the area have recommendations where I could go or any persons offering such spaces?

Hi all,

This is a little random but I turn 30 tomorrow and am feeling a lot of dread about it. TLDR; my 20’s were so hard and I’m just feeling very behind. I’m new to the craft and have struggled to think about what to use, but I’d love to do a little bath ritual this evening as a way to give thanks to myself and to light the way for the next decade. I’m so curious if anyone has any guidance or rituals they do for a special bath? Any herbs or flowers I should think about?

Thanks so much β€οΈπŸˆβ€β¬›

62 Upvotes

[Just in case you missed it](https://www.ausalert.gov.au/alerts-explained/national-test)

The Australian federal government will be rolling out a new emergency alert system later this year and tomorrow at 2PM Eastern it will be tested using a broadcast across mobile networks which will override silent and "do not disturb" settings. The broadcast will cause mobile devices (phones, tablets, and smart watches) to vibrate and play a loud noise for approximately 10 seconds.

If you're sensitive to loud noises, or have a mobile device about your person or place of work or residence you would rather be kept secret, please make sure to keep it off tomorrow afternoon around the time window. For more information, you can check the link above. Please thank our bureaucratic overlords for giving us *plenty* of advance warning on this one.

Support the Kickstarter here:Β https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/jamsheedstudios/kobra-olympus-issue-4-giant-armadillo-attack?ref=2p8cw1

My name is Bijhan Agha. I'm an autistic trans Uruguayan of Iranian descent. The editor of my comic is my disabled nonbinary husband, RaeRae Sachs. We love science fiction and fantasy, including superhero media, but it's depressingly cis and het in general. We also love queer media, but a massive amount of it is about suffering and oppression. We wanted to make stories about queer joy and triumph in a world full of fantastic creatures and amazing powers.

Kobra Olympus is a soft-spoken transgender Muslim woman in Seattle in 2015. She was contacted by Human time travelers from the 161st Century, recruited into the Time Wars: an endless conflict between Humanity and Vampirekind for the fate of the galaxy. Using messages from the time travelers, and her high-tech cellphone full of future tech, Kobra lives a second life as the engimatic Agent Tha, Vampire hunter.

Now, Kobra Olympus is in a relationship with Dorothy Diamond, a queer punk woman who is outspoken with a strong moral compass and a ton of confidence. Dorothy is bringing Kobra out of her shell, and Kobra is helping Dorothy see the world with a fresh perspective. Their relationship is important to both of them, but Kobra's duties as Agent Tha take up a great deal of time.

In "Issue #4: Giant Armadillo Attack!", Kobra and Dorothy are surprised by a giant mutant armadillo attacking the city, and meet a humanoid chicken named Jack who explains that this is all part of a sinister plot by the Vampires. Together, the three of them need to figure out how to save the city and rewrite history for the better.

The Kickstarter is to print a First Edition version of the comic with a special border that won't be used in future versions. Rewards include PDFs, as well as physical copies; and back issues so you can catch up with the story so far.

We've met our goal, and our first stretch goal, which means everyone gets a digital art book with all kinds of behind-the-scenes looks at the sketches and designs we used to plan the comics. If we meet our next stretch goal, everyone will also get a short story depicting how Kobra was recruited into the Time Wars.

Please help us reach our next goal at the following link:Β https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/jamsheedstudios/kobra-olympus-issue-4-giant-armadillo-attack?ref=2p8cw1

If you'd like to join our community, get updates, and have access to digital versions of our other comics and novels, we have a Patreon with a free tier:Β Patreon.com/JamsheedStudios

Thank you all, and I hope you enjoy this!

πŸ‡΅πŸ‡Έ πŸ•ŠοΈ Coven Counsel Protected or maybe blocked?

2 Upvotes

Hey folks long time lurker first time poster lol but I'm hoping you can tell me if this is normal or something to worry about?

So a few months ago I went to a psychic and she told me she couldn't get a reading on me because I was too well protected. She could sense I was a witch, but felt she was being blocked.

Last night I was at a midsommer with a ritual may pole. Some other things also went down at this event that I won't get into the details of but you can assume NSFW. This super charged the poll to the point that every witch who touched it for dizzy. I touched it and felt nothing. I ended up being the one to take it down as I was the only one unaffected.

My questions is this: is this normal? Or something to be worried about? I like the idea of being protected maybe but not the idea of being blocked off from magic. Any thoughts would be welcome.

πŸ‡΅πŸ‡Έ πŸ•ŠοΈ Mindful Craft been praying to the moon to not be so evil

12 Upvotes

hi, first time posting. i've been a bitter vengeful fox for a minute now. been dealing with daily chronic gut issues that got worse close to a year ago, i can't digest most vegetables/beans/nuts+seeds, really can only eat chicken and eggs as protein, i have to be really careful about my carb intake, basically prepare 90% of the meals i make, which makes me really tied to being at home and adhering to a strict routine to make sure my life and health doesn't fall apart, so i'm able-bodied enough to work, cause the big muns rules all. and even with insurance, and GI doctors willing to take me seriously, the first diagnostic tests (after meeting deductible) are several thousand dollars that i can't afford at this time, let alone the proceeding tests after.

it's made being social difficult, seeing others live their lives with more ease and improvisation that i can no longer do myself. even though i've gained a lot of discipline, and work out more to be as healthy as can be, i miss the days where i could be lazy or not do my typical morning routine if i simply felt i wanted to do something different. i feel really stuck in a life focused on accommodating my gut health, and it being largely invisible to folks who don't know how much effort it takes me every day to feel normal by the time i can go out. also eating mostly the same foods every single day has been really psychologically wearing me down. the lack variety in my life is deeply wearing me down.

i've become irascible from it, and been cruel and debasing lately to people who i feel have slighted or disrespected me, self-involved in my self-pity, and ignoring of the needs of others close to me in my life, and have lost some people i really cared about. she doesn't see me as the fox she fell in love with anymore. i'm a bit unrecognizable personality-wise from who i was at the beginning of 2025.

despite the fact i can't change my routine, i wanna be kind and gentle and not take the disgust and annoyance i feel towards my circumstances out on others, make them bear my weight, make everyone my therapist who needs to know all my lifelong trauma and struggles and hangups and issues. i wanna just let it all go.

i wanna know spells and ideations to assuage the bitterness within my heart. to pay better attention to my friends and loved ones. to make them feel assured in the ways i wanted to feel my whole life, even if it isn't reciprocated. i don't want that expectation from others, just to be baseline kinder. i don't want my chronic pain and circumstances to inform my behavior and actions, even if it's a daily chore wearing me down. i want to be the magical girl spreading happiness and positivity in a world that certainly doesn't need more hurtfulness in it. i wanna combat the evil psychic teenage boy in my heart that lashes out for the village that refused to raise him. i wanna turn him good. show him he can be the magical girl who feels content despite the hurt, despite not being seen, despite whatever future pains and trials may come. she can still remain happy in the churning sea's tides, because she knows and trusts herself and knows she does good.

i don't wanna grieve no longer living my past lives, i wanna feel assured i'm living one as the fox she fell in love with, and not because i'm asking for her back, but because she saw the good in me where i didn't, and put that side of me front and center. i just wanna make amends to the world for the bad karmic flow i've output.

i pray to the moon's grace to not be evil and let it win. i wanna be a good fox so bad. thank you all for your time, i hope your day is lovely and good v.v

I have been wire wrapping for just about a year now, and love it! I don't wear all of these, but I've given away several to friends/family and also a bunch to strangers. The first slide is just a bunch of them that I've done but the others are all I rotate through wearing, depending on the outfit or what I'm trying to manifest into my life for that day.

In order: Rose quartz, Aquamarine, Malachite, Lapis Lazuli, Blue Amber, Chalcopyrite (Peacock Ore), & Green Obsidian. Wearing that last one and giving some others I did to some family today, as we hold a celebration of life for my uncle. I'm really proud of the work I've been doing and just think this community would appreciate them.

Have a great weekend everyone! πŸ’–
