The Appennine Collosus

[lithium223]

when Alphonse and Seth broke things off I like to think that Alphonse was scared that

1) someone won't fall in love with him ever again,Not ever to the same degree that Seth loved him that no one will ever know him the way Seth knows him,that no one will understand him the same way Seth does.

2) he won't fall in love ever again. He's scared of the unguaranteed thing that is his love. How can he be sure that he will ever feel the same way about anyone ever again? I like to think that he's scared that his love will never be enough and that falling in love with anyone else other than Seth means he's moved on and is ready to leave Seth behind in his past and to him that's a betrayal that he's not ready to do.

He doesn't know if his heart has ever belonged to anyone else aside from Seth,and his trying so hard to ignore the fact that Seth might have been the one and he will forever miss his chance to be his again.

Lemme introduce you to my super niche dynamic. Primus x The first Prime.

I am mixing continuities again and using Prima’s characterisation and origin from Aligned universe and the design from Tf1. Because the tf1 design is incredibly pretty~

ALSO the “every spark is connected to the Matrix” is based on the mtmte#21 where it reveals that Matrix has sparkcodes in it and you can basically use it to reassign a new spark code to other mech as if Matrix is just a freaking exel document that can be edited haha

Hearth & Home Witchcraft That I've Learned

One of the biggest things that stands out to me when reading about hearth & home witchery is that everyday items are considered magical. Everyday moments, tasks, and chores as well. Its a beautiful way to live, if you really think about it. Big rituals are great, but as someone who is disabled, they rarely are doable. Here is a list of Hearth & Home Witchcraft Tips that i actually practice.

-Enchant a blanket by embroidering a sigil in the corner and using its color correspondences for your needs. It also helps me feel shielded from negative energy during meditation.

-Play music that makes you feel safe and AT HOME. This is almost like grounding, but also can be cleansing to the environment and especially the listeners. For me, its smooth jazz. The chill sound of the standup bass and the wandering piano notes that always seem to find their way to a comfortable key... its soothing to my soul.

-Talk to and about your home (kindly). So often its easy to complain about your living space. How you wish it looked or functioned differently. The house (in my belief) hears you. Treat it with kindness and gratitude for the shelter it provides. I say thank you to the house spirits and my home every morning.

-Find a convenient home protection ritual to do each month. I say convenient because if you overcomplicate things you'll feel less enthusiastic and less motivated to do it, and might even skip several months.

-Make a home cleansing spray using essential oils mixed with an appropriate amount of moon water. I like using a few drops of lemon, rosemary, lavender, and cinnamon. DO NOT spray this in the vicinity of your pets. I only use this spray in rooms where there arent any animals, to avoid complications with their health.

-Wash your bedding as often as you can and say a short incantation before you put it in the wash. It could go something like this. "I cleanse this bedding of all negative energy, from bad dreams, and from and all stress." Sleep is so important to your sense of safety and wellbeing at home.

-Open the damn windows when you can! Stagnant energy is known for dragging down people's moods. And there's nothing quite as uplifting as fresh air. This provides a healthy flow to your house's energy.

-Don't bring things in your home unless you want to incorporate their energy into your environment. This is something that's often overlooked. I especially advise heavy consideration when it comes to thrifting items and bringing them home. Try practicing sensing the energy of items so you can easily tell whats good to bring home and whats not. Thrifting is great! Im not discouraging it btw.

-Fresh flowers work miracles. Not only do they aesthetically brighten the room, but their correspondences and magical properties apply to the room that they're in. Sunflowers are a great example of a flower that encourages positivity, and are extremely affordable to get lots of them. Roses are a bit more expensive usually, but they invite that loving vibe. And African irises are great for psychic enhancement.

Thats all for this post! Reblog it if you found it helpful, or have any of your own cool practices for hearth & home witchcraft to share!

Types of Witches and what they focus on

There are various people out there who identify as witches. While these practitioners use some of the same universal techniques such as spell work, manifestation, meditation, etc. not many know of what types of witches they truly align themselves to. There are many types of witches, from green witches who do their work in greenery and gardens, to lunar witches who use their practice to focus on the moon and follow along its phases.

In this blog, I will be sharing some information about the types of witches that exist. I may not be able to list them all, but this will hopefully encourage you to curiosity and perhaps look more closely and research for yourself.

Types of Witches

Eclectic Witch: This is a kind of witch who enjoys practicing methods of witchcraft across all paths and finding out what works for them along the way. They bring something special to the table in how they’re open to any form of practice and find what’s works best for them.

Kitchen Witch: This witch has the kitchen as their main source of practicing their craft. The act of cooking, prepping, or baking is like a mesmerizing ritual for them. The heart of their home is like a sacred sanctuary. Kitchen witches would have their altars usually set up near or around their kitchen.

Green Witch: The green witch embraces nature by drawing energies from the earth and untamed things/places. They find their strength in wild and untamed Earth, places where human civilization hasn’t touched and where wild animals still call their home. They use stones and crystals, plants, flowers, and herbs in their practice and call to nature for guidance and respects every living being. They are like stewards to Earth, but they truly mean to respect and give reverence.

Cosmic Witch: Also referred to as the “Star Witch” this practitioner focuses their energies on the cosmos above Earth. The planets, stars, moons, and all celestial phenomena. Their practices are deeply intertwined with astrology, lunar phases, and the energies of the planets. These witches see the universe as a living entity with its own cycles, rhythms, and influences that can be used for their practice.

Hedge Witch: The practice of the hedge witch is usually those who are solitary and involve a deep study of plants and the natural world. While they could be confused with the “Green Witch”, they are an homage to the wise women of old who lived beyond the hedges of villages. They find magic in day-to-day activities and their practices align with the threshold of this world and the beyond.

Hereditary Witch: The hereditary witch describes someone who comes from a family or lineage of witches. Magical practices and traditions are passed from generation to generation, where often they are rooted in folk magic or specific rituals. They get their magic from their parents, grandparents, and ancestors.

Ceremonial Witch: Also known as practitioners of “high magic”, they focus on elaborate and structured rituals. These rituals would involve specific accessories and esoteric practices such as astrology, Kabbalah*, or Enochian* magic. These kinds of witches work best in ceremonial roles for that is where their magic is the strongest.

Sea Witch: This practitioner focuses their magical practices on the sea and its elements. Their connections is between themselves and the ocean, embracing the ebb and flow of the tides, the power of the waves, and what lies beneath the water. They focus their attention on creating a bond with the sea and its inhabitants, working with its energy to manifest their intentions and achieve their goals.

Crystal Witch: Crystals are the life source for these practitioners. They deeply resonate with the power of crystals and gemstones, integrating these natural elements into their practices and daily lives. Their integration goes beyond admiration for they communicate with, understand, and harness the unique vibrations each crystal brings to enhance spells, rituals, and personal energy work.

Elemental Witch: A practitioners who focuses on working with and harnessing the energies of earth, air, fire, and water. Similar to the Green Witch, they have a great respect for the earth. They form a bond with each of the 4 elements to attain the highest and secret 5th element, spirit, which encompasses all the elements together.

Baby Witch: These people are described as beginners, those who are new to the practices and are exploring different paths and learning the basics. While the other categories list experts, baby witches are usually at the starting stage of their practice and their magical journey.

Coven Witch: A coven witch is a practitioners who focuses their work onto themselves and their coven, their group or gathering of witches who practice together. These witches would likely follow a structured tradition or lineage, and may follow a particular magical or religious system such as Wicca*.

Grey Witch: This practitioners who focuses of magic while using whatever methods are deemed necessary. These could include hexes and curses to achieve justice and correct unfair circumstances. They also often seek the help of unseen spirits. They experiment both with light and dark energies.

Faery Witch: Also called a “faerie witch” or “fae witch”, they practice with a focus on working with and honoring nature spirits, particularly faeries and those associated with the Fae realm. Their practices usually incorporate Celtic or Pagan traditions.

Hearth Witch: A home-centered witch who focuses their energies on creating sacred space and weaving magical into mundane. They tend to focus their practices on herbalism, candle magic, ritual cleaning, and creating a sacred space through everyday activities and home rituals.

Lunar Witch: A practitioner who draws their energies and practices from the moon and its phases. They incorporate lunar magic into their spells and rituals. They also understand how each phase of the moon affects energy, drawing in on those energies to help manifest intentions and using rituals and meditations that connect back to lunar energy. They also use herbs to correspond to each phase like mugwort, lavender, chamomile, thyme, and rosemary.’

Divination Witch: They use their magic to try to predict the future, often employing a variety of tools. Some of these tools include the iconic tarot cards, the lesser known oracle cards, pendulums, palm readings, horoscope readings, etc. These practitioners tend to be on the psychic side and are very clairvoyant individuals.

Folk Witch: They practice witchcraft deeply rooted in the traditions, folklore, and magical practices of their ancestors or local culture. Their focus is on the land, their ancestry, and ancient customs. An example of this could be the Braucherei practitioners who focus their practices on the wild and untamed Appalachian Mountains.

And this is only a few of these types of witches! If you’re interested to know more I highly recommend researching on each of these categories and which other ones are out there. There’s a diversity to witches and witchcraft that many more people need to know of and this is the start of that learning experience! Blessed be!

Definitions of ** words

Kabbalah: Often translated as “received tradition”, is a form of Jewish mysticism that seeks to understand the hidden meaning of the universe and God’s relationship with humanity. A body of teachings that explores the nature of the divine and the cosmos, often through esoteric interpretation of Jewish texts.

Enochian: Refers to a constructed, occult language and system of magic recorded in the journals of 16th-century occultists John Dee and Edward Kelley, claiming to be a “celestial speech” used to communicate with angelic realms.

Spell Bags

What Are Spell Bags?

Spell Bags are usually small bags that contain a range of ingredients linked to the intention of your spell. They can sometimes be known as different names, or have slight cultural differences. For the purpose of this post I will refer to a spell bag, but they may also be called spell sachets, charm bags, and in some cultures, mojo bags (please do your own research). You can also make spell jars, which are pretty much the same, only you use a jar and not a bag.

Bag Colors

Gold - wealth, protection, the God Silver - prosperity, the moon, the Goddess Yellow - healing Orange - travel, communication, messages Green - nature, growth, prosperity, abundance, friendship Blue - peace, calm, wisdom, benevolence Purple - wisdom, wealth, grandeur, mysteries, justice Red - success, romance, strength, protection Pink - love, healing, friendship Black - absorbs negative energy

How to Make a Spell Bag

Think about your intention for making the spell bag… Why are you making it?… What do you want to get from it?

Think about ingredients you want to put into the spell bag and their correspondences… What ingredients will fit into your spell bag?… What specific ingredients are associated with your intentions (for example, what herbs are used for protection)

Collect your bag and ingredients, and focus your intent on each of them. You may also want to write a magickal chant. This can be simply read out, or written down to leave inside the spell bag.

Assemble your spell bag.

Spend time either meditating on your intention, or reciting your magickal chant.

Find a place to put your spell bag. This may simply be on your altar, or in your pocket. Alternatively, there may be a specific place you want to put it (such as by your bed for a sleep spell bag, or in the corner of your room for protection).

Tip-Jar

Every time I see a take on the solavellan relationship in Veilguard that boils down to “he’s just an ex she dated for a year about a decade why does she even still care” I die a little inside.

This so fundamentally misses the point of their relationship in Inquisition. It’s not an everyday type of experience. This isn’t your ex from uni you’re still hung up on well after graduation.

The Inquisitor was thrust into becoming an icon for a religion she doesn’t even follow. She became the leader of a religious military organization. With every day that passes, she is increasingly removed from being a regular person. Even if she doesn’t like nor want that, it’s now her reality.

But throughout this experience, she has someone who’s by her side. Who can advise her. Whom she can confide in. He shares dreams with her.

They fall in love. He breaks her heart. He abandons her. He was a god and responsible for everything that happened to her in the first place.

This is an epic and mythical romance. It’s not supposed to be grounded nor healthy and placing constraints on it as if it were doesn’t make sense.
