Sexual role [n.m]
A disgusting concept which tells you what you should and shouldn’t do according to the gender you were born with.
First of all, it creates so many problems in our society, like the cowboy syndrom, sexism, name it.
Second of all, don’t you think people should do whatever the fuck they want without asking themelves if their GeNdEr ShOUld dO SUcH a tHIng?

Why physical activity is even more important now
Physical activity (or PA) liberates hormones like endorphins in our bodies, which reduces the pains and increases the mood. It allows us to be more stable emotionnally and reduce our stress levels.
In a social crisis like the one we are living right now, our mental health is much more fragile, which makes it even more important to put our bodies on our side, by giving it the chance to move and having hormones to stabilise us in such a time of need.

Am I the only one?
Am I the only one that, when the Covid-19 crisis started was laughing at memes on the subject 24/7? It’s much less fun now that’s for sure!

The olympic tour, an icon of my home town. It is close to the Pie-IX station, in Hochelaga Maisonneuve. This neighboorhood has become much more cool in the last decade, with it’s unique stores and cafes you couldn’t find no where else in the city and, of course, the gorgeous botanical garden.
I can’t wait that the tupid covid crisis is over so I can get out of my house :(

🛡 Warding 🛡
Disclaimer:
This is all based on my research, path, opinion & experiences!
Intro:
I really was holding out on doing this post because it’s such a big, important topic to cover and I really don’t want to mess it up or get anything wrong. This post needs to be done though, people have asked if I have such a post and an anon suggested it. So finally, here it is.
-
What Is Warding?
Warding is a type of magick, it is the act of creating an energetic barrier around you, your home, an object, ect. They can be temporary or permanent, although typically they are cast with the long term in mind. They can banish or turn away whatever you choose. Warding is an excellent skill to have because it can keep you, and even others safe and with practice you can do it anytime with just about whatever you have on hand.
When Should I Ward?
Whenever you want an energetic barrier around you, most people consistently ward their home, themselves or their place of practice. Some people even ward their space every time they prepare for a spell. It should be done consistently in any area you want protected, but exactly where and how often is entirely up to the practitioner.
What Should I Do Before?
Cleanse, a ward is a barrier of energy and in the same way that it keeps things out it also keeps things in. You don’t want to trap anything inside of it. Cleanse yourself before you ward yourself. Cleanse your space before you ward your space!
Tips Before You Ward-
Phrasing
Keep the phrasing in mind! You don’t want to keep anything out that you want in, or let something in that you want out. If you’re chanting or using sigils ect keep in mind exactly what you want to keep out both in your methods and in your mind.
Covering everything
Make sure to cover everything, a ward is useless if there’s a weakness in it or if the ceiling & floor aren’t probably covered. Be super thorough!
Layering Your Wards
One small little wimpy barrier? Ha, the spirits say as they scramble into your home to wreak havoc! You need to layer your wards, don’t just use one method one time, there’s no such thing as too much warding.
What Are Some Ways That I Can Ward?
Now we’ll get right down to the methods you can use to ward yourself and your space! Remember that warding is important and needs to be effective, don’t try anything that you don’t have experience with for warding. At first, focus on the stuff you know. If you like sigils, use sigils at first and slowly work your way into using other more complex methods or methods that solely rely on your abilities.
Circle Casting
You cast a circle by summoning the four elements to protect & energize what is in the circle.
- Here’s my post about circles & how to cast them
Chanting/Speaking
Come up with a protective chant you can use to ward your space. This chant could be someone else’s or your own as long as you feel it’s effective. Speak it aloud and visualize a layer of energy protecting your space.
Incense
Burn a protective incense in the space you’d like to ward and visualize a barrier protecting your space.
Athame
Draw out the line of your ward with your athame, visualize the wall appearing, covering everything with a thick layer of energy.
Spraying
Spray a mix of blessed/magickal waters and or herbs with protective properties in the space you want to ward.
Sigils
Create a sigil using your favorite method with the intent to “ward” or “protect/protection.” Then charge and activate it as a layer of protection!
Here’s my post on sigils if you’re interested in that:
- Sigil Post
Jar Spells
You could mix up a jar spell for warding, set it in your house and forget it as a layer of warding.
- My protective jar spell post
Anointment
Anoint the doorways of your space, you could also anoint the ceiling, floor, walls, corners, honestly go for it.
Salt
Sprinkle salt all around the edge of your home or space. Make sure to sprinkle salt on the INSIDE of your harm as salt can harm plants & wildlife if used outside. If you’d like to make a barrier on the outside of your home, you can use dried & crushed eggshells in place of salt. - Post on how to make eggshell powder here -
Hag stones
Hag stones are stones with holes in them that have been corroded into the stone because of rushing water. It is believed rushing water is protective & cleansing so if you wear a stone that sat in it long enough to have parts corroded away, that the stone will maintain and keep those properties with it. It’s a great way to personally ward yourself, and an excuse to go out in nature.
They look like this!
Energy Manipulation
If you’ve got a knack for manipulating energy, you can create a barrier through work and visualization that surrounds yourself or your space. This isn’t recommended for beginners though!

Personal Wards
Also remember not just to ward your space but yourself, if you layer your home with wards, what happens when you leave? Exactly. Keep yourself safe too! Circle casting & hag stones are great methods I mentioned above that are good for personal warding.
Can I Ward Specific Things And Not Others?
Absolutely! I mentioned this in the phrasing section of this post, keep in mind exactly what you want to keep out when you’re warding. I like words like “negative” or “harmful” or “with ill intent” because they don’t necessarily keep out the Fae or positive/neutral spirits but it does keep out anything that wants to harm you in general. Just think about it ahead of time, find wording or a phrase you like and keep that in mind as you ward.
What If I Live With People?
If you’re out of the broom closet, explain to your family/roommates what you’re doing and why you’re doing it and make sure they’re cool with it and are aware of what’s going on. If you’re not out of the broom closet, you may have to resort to only warding yourself/your room, & that’s okay!
I hope this helps someone or teaches them something new!
Enjoy!
Have a lovely day 💖

Happy Halloween, my ghouls!
Rather than participate in Inktober, I decided to do Witch Wednesday. Every Wednesday in October, I posted a prominent witch from Mythology/Folklore on my instagram.
Here they are for you, posted as a full set.

Statue of Athena, Montreal.
Athena is the Greek Godess of wisdom and war strategy, as being an example for the strong women in this world.
She was one of the most worshipped godesses in ancient Greece.
Her animal is the owl.
I found this statue at the Athena park in Montreal.
A story about this day will come
