I know for a fact that this has been posted elsewhere on Tumblr, but I wanted to share this:

This is a document ful of resources about things you can do politically that are not voting or going to protests. As a disabled person who struggles at protests, this is incredibly valuable. It has tons of resources about mutual aid, political education, migrant justice, disability justice, and much much more.

I think that he can get quite protective of his significant other but also can get quite defensive of his own feelings and vulnerabilities if he feels threatened.

It’s actually awesome how you described Namjoon’s style. I don’t know if it’s a well known fact, but once he posted a instagram story showing a korean shoegaze band he was listening. Shoegaze is known to have a lot of layers in their melodies, but also being relatively simple since it doesn’t have many instruments (just guitar lol).

Damn ?? I didn't expect that. I do think overall it made sense for them but to me it was not that serious of a read. Thank you for the information anon !

[magical-glimpse]

DUDEEEEEE NAHHHH.

now listen, I ain’t a tarot or spiritual believer, I’m pretty agnostic and am a skeptic of literally everything, but I swear that BTS are literally mind readers or some shit because HOW DID NAMJOON LITERALLY MAKE AN ALBUM THAT DESCRIBES EXACTLY HOW I’VE BEEN FEELING DOWN TO A TEE FOR MONTHS. ASK HIM THAT. HOW DOES HE DO IT.

No like, I was literally just watching his album switch video with Jimin (uploaded like an hour and 30 minutes ago) in which Jimin listens to RPWP for the first time and literally everything that RM was saying was like what I’ve been screaming to the void for sooooo longggg. From him and Jimin saying that he has a contradictory personality (sameeee) to him talking about how he needed to seperate himself physically from what’s familiar (BTS, in his case, in my case it’s my family that I need to seperate from for a bit) in order for him to find what is lost, it’s as if he literally embodied everything that I’ve been feeling for a hot minute ughhhh.

I was literally sitting there watching the video screaming “EXACTLYYYYY!!!” I literally have been sitting here feeling like the right person in the wrong place just like him.

Like, him and Hobi are my biases and idk how but those two always have an album or a song out that literally just… gets it. Like idk, BTS in general just makes music that makes sense for what I’m going through and shit. Like even D-Day came out when I was going through a major depressive period of my life (shout outs to yoongi for making such a great album, literally kept me alive no joke). Like HOWWWWW. THIS SHIT IS CRAZY.

This was not even a majorly tarot related ask lol, this was just me venting.

I ain’t really a big believer in tarot and spirituality, but if you can, please tell Namjoon to stop reading my mind lollllll coz this album is literally what I’ve written in my journal for monthsssssss. STOP READING MY DIARY NAMJOON. Tell him that I hope that one day he’ll be the right person in the right place and I hope that I will one day as well, but that since life is constantly evolving, we’re bound to find ourselves in the wrong place again, the question is, are we meant to mold that place into one that fits us or are we meant to mold ourselves to fit that place, or do we leave it all together? Food for thought.

anywayyyyyyy thank you for reading this far Miaro lol! Sorry for the rant!

Hahah sorry this is a really late answer But i see you, I totally see you because i lived the same thing. I still do pretty regularly and i think its going to get worse after they all come back and start doing music together again. Exciting and cool.

hello!!!! I have a question for the BTS members that I was wondering if you could ask. How do they feel about fanfic writers and other types of fans of that sort? Not crazy obsessive sasaengs and obsessive shippers, but just the average fan who writes fanfic about them or shippers (who aren’t deluded or anything, just ship for shits and giggles).

I'm doing this one as a group thing All of them are aware it exists, but not all of them have lived experiences in fandom to really have an opinion on it ? I think for like 3 members its a "oh they write because they miss/love us, it's cute". None of them like, read fanfic about themself, but I think some of them have come across some, or the existence of some, and respect it as an art form. There is an aspect of sweetness here which let me think some good fanfictions have made them feel like they were seen or loved by ARMYS.

[magical-glimpse]

Can you do how bts confess their feeling to a crush or someone they're interested in thank you 🤍❤

Ngl, this one stayed in my inbox because its not my style of readings but i've been feeling such high energy in tarot recently I'm gonna go for it. I'm sorry for the very late answer lol.Might as well do it headcanons style lol For entertainement purposes only

Jin:

Very traditional style. The type to ask you out and pick you up at 6 for dinner in a nice place with a bouquet of flowers.

Probably does need a bit of time to confess because he's on the shier side, so unless arranged dating or meeting it will take him a while to go from gentleman-y friend to anything else.

Might even avoid the friend stage and go from nice acquaintance to first date directly out of a fear of making it awkward.

Becomes fun and silly after the walls came down.

STILL, a gentleman through and through.

RM:

Overthinks.

Overthinks a lot.

Spent more time thinking about the exact way to express it than actually doing it

might actually do it by text or in a way that feels out of the blue ??

like let's say you're visiting him in his studio, you do something cute and he bluescreens and just blurts "hey are you free this saturday ? I care for you a lot and i'd love to take you on a date to get to know you on a different level,what do you think ?"

To you it's random, to him hes thinking exactly what kind of date you would like, he would like, and you could still learn about each other

Yoongi:

Ha.

Bold you to think he speaks.

No but for real, it depends on how vulnerable he feels about it.

if it's chill, it's gonna be chill. he might hide it though. Instead of asking you out on a date or sharing his feelings he's going to invite you over for random things until you're so used to it when he starts holding your hands and cuddling you just don't see the difference.

If he's panicking it's the same but stronger. Suddenly he spent weeks at your place, he knows where every single thing is, he fixed your faulty lights and the bathroom and called someone for the mold growing on this wall behind your kitchen. You love him so much you're the on asking him out and he's like fake shrugs "it's like we are already together anyway"

i think thats more how he wants it to happen than how it is likely to be.

Man is scared.

Hoseok:

This motherfucker eyes speak for him.

Most likely to look like he's going to devour you before even speaking one word about relationships or feelings. (i am writing that before the release of Killin'It Girl fyi)

He's a friends to lovers guy, or at least friendly to lovers guy. Even a One-night-stand or FWB to lovers guy.

Since he's really affectionate in general i think it's jut easier for him to be affectionate or physically intimate first to ease himself emotionally into affectionate or intimate feelings else he could get regretful or avoidant because it's like, some parts of himself are slower to open up than others so being affectionate helps him stay consistent in how he works and who he is as a person than going from strangers to lovers. In way he's the opposite of Jin, it's like he gotta approach his relationships somehow unconventionally to be able to open up and be himself for real.

Overall a very loving person anyway, he just needs his time and his own pace to do it

Jimin:

On a scale of awkwards to flirty, Jimin is the scale

The military definitely changed his confidence in interpersonal relationships so i might have to do this again in a few months.

It almost feel like school boy crush ?? Like a cute confession, flirty but shy, mostly cute

nobodys surprised

V:

Puppy love

before he even confesses everyone notices its easier for him to be his lighthearted self around you

gets excitable, probably goes a cute type of date, cat cafe, flower field, dog sanctuary. Or something both classical but unique ?? Like coffee date but in a realyl specific jazz cafe with interesting recipes and he's happy to share it with you.

A LOT OF HAND HOLDING. Maybe even hand kisses and forehead kisses.

Hes honeslty liekly to facetime his mom if the date goes really really well or send a picture of his date to his parents during the date and they encoruage like "oh theyre reallly pretty !! have fun kids :)" like definitely a familial vibe

Jungkook :

Man is confident

Came to pick you up on a moto

drinking soda on the country side while talking sitting next to his motorcycle

Funny, intense, passionate. He's going all in and all himself, not holding back anything and expect his date to match the energy with theirs.

wont accept anything less than someone giving him the whole of who they are if he is

THIS WAS LONG AS FUCK, hope you like it

[magical-glimpse]

can you do a reading on what type of music the BTS members like to listen to? And I’m not asking for specific songs, I’m just asking for like the vibe or “aesthetic” of what their types of preferred music are. Thanksssss

Okay so i'm doign this one through shufflemancy its just easier Namjoon: songs with many layers. Maybe even slam or instrumentals music from like videogames or musicals. Just very layered things in meaning but i'm feeling simpler sounds ? Maybe more metallic and eletronic sounding with a little bit of acoustic style lo-fi. Jin: I'm kinda feeling IU vibe, soft, vocals, interesting instrumentals but the softness of the voice blends in. Yoongi: A mix of Emo, Rock and rap. Maybe even EDM or nightcore style. Independent artists, boundary benders. Feels very "online" though, like small youtube and soundcloud artists. Darker sounds, reminds me of the Dark and Wild album. Jhope: Nostalgic sounds. Love songs with longing and yearning, things of the past, sweetness but he misses it/them ? Like it comes from someone or an event of his life he holds dearly. Jimin: Musicals. Something from a cartoon maybe ? or an anime opening, but it's part of something else. Fun tbh, sounds interesting. Taehyung: Old rock vibe, pretty chill, soft percussions but a bit lively. Happy music, childlike ? Jk: K-pop, maybe catching up on some groups he likes ? Rock vibe.

[magical-glimpse]

Hello! How are you? In light of the renewal today, may you please do a BTS reading on how each of the members is feeling about the renewal and additionally how they feel about HYBE and/or Bighit Music? Thank you so much 😊

This ask is almost 2 years old im so sorry T-T i dont think i'll answer it

[magical-glimpse]

What kind of vacations would the members like to take?

For entertainment purposes only

Jin: Staying home, having fun, spending money (maybe on gacha games ?), going with the flow RM: Doing something fun and high energy, doing things he has not been able to do in a while or that he regrets not doing or putting off Suga: Doing something fun, lighthearted and creative. Gardening ? Building something ? Woodworking ? Furniture building ? Something to do around his house ? It feels like related to his living situation, could be doing housework or painting his walls or redecorating. Jhope: Uh... I don't know how else to put it but- potentially sex. A sexcapade with a partner. Or partying. I think he's looking to let out some steam privately and to indulge somehow. Could also just be clubbing and flirting but he does seem to be looking for a way of letting out tensions here. Jimin: Also going with the flow, but it foes feel like he has an itch of going back to work or doing work related activities. Dancing, working out, vocal classes, something to get him back into a "pressured" state to give him a reason to work hard, he misses the hard working side of himself. V: Something fun and chill. Probably a road trip ? A weekend or something far but not too far just to chill and connect back to the normal world. It's giving cute and excited energy. JK: Bro just wants to leave lmao. Car, scooter, plane he'll take fucking anything but he wants to see the world and connect. Potentially visit friends or loved ones abroad or living in places he doesnt get to go to very often. He wants to go OUT out and connect.

[magical-glimpse]

Hello! I hope I am able to ask this but how does jk lovers/partners see him in their relationship? Have a good day

For entertainment purposes only I am clearing out old asks, I am not sure yet if i intend to continue BTS readings, and even if I do it will probably be with stricter boundaries than in the past.

His partners see him as something that turn their life around completely, suddenly and unexpectedly. He's something so new, so fresh, so unexpectedly passionate it makes them question their own passions and devotion to the things in their lives. He's serious about building relationships but also funny and can be playful, but really, really defensive. I do think he's in a transformational phase so it's not really clear rn who he is or what he does in relationships

the Chicken furthermore tries to convince you to practice sorcery in a fun and fulfilling way

There is a difference between practicing goal-oriented practical sorcery, and placing the entire value of your sorcery on whether or not you achieved the goal. One of these things is soul-crushing.

Practicing sorcery should be it's own reward. The actual steps you are performing should be stuff that you like, or thrills you, or captures your fascination. As an activity, practicing sorcery should be satisfying regardless of whether or not the spellwork manifests properly.

If the sorcery on your plate is not satisfying, compost it and return to the endless buffet and try a different type of sorcery.

If you do not have the things you need, your first step to a spell becomes innovation. What is the purpose of the thing in the spell, and how can it be replaced?

A spell can be cast with a length of string, or a paper and pen. Or with a bit of crayon. Or a dead fly. Or with just you.

Sorcerous knowledge tends to reveal itself when the clutter of correspondences is placed aside, so having few things to practice with is not a curse.

You do not need an interpersonal spiritual friendship with every single spirit you want to work with in magic. YOU DO NOT.

Interpersonal friend relationships with spirits should probably be reserved for very special spirits in your "inner court," the beings with which you choose to share your life and that you honor as teachers and guides.

Many spirits are pleased to assist with magic, but have no interest in getting to know us personally.

Imagine if everyone in your askbox wanted to ask you for help on something you're knowledgeable about, but instead of just asking for help, they first wanted to DM you for a few weeks to make sure you're comfortable with being asked for help, meanwhile on your correspondence chart pinned post it says "I can help with [topic]! Just ask!"

Asking spirits for help in magic is a good, valid way to start building a relationship with them.

Repeatedly calling on the same spirit or type of spirit over and over in spellwork is a fantastic way to deepen your relationship with them.

Working with a spirit in magic does not mean you are obligated to build a shrine to it, venerate it, talk to it outside of spellwork, or any of that.

Practicing sorcery is not the same thing as casting a spell. Practicing sorcery also means practicing the composite skills which come together to make a spell.

A spell is like a completed painting. But to make that painting, the artist needed several skills: the ability to sketch the scene, knowledge of how to apply and work with their paint, color theory, an understanding of how to render landscapes, and so forth. As a sorcerer, your skillset might be imbuing intent, raising energy, centering and grounding, practicing trance, practicing psychism or divination, etc. As you gain familiarity with these things, spells become less like an imposing stranger, and more like someone you're sure you've met before.

Practice can be it's own reward, but discipline is often required for progress.

Raising energy once a day, forever? I think not.

Raising energy once a day for seven days? Or, dedicating to doing it a total of ten times this month? Perhaps so.

An artist may not be in love with every single step of the process, and sometimes a sorcerer may have to get good at a skill that's not their favorite. But if no part of the process sparks joy, then something is wrong.

Sucking at something is the first step to being kind of good at something. Be reasonable with yourself: does the beginner artist doodle a landscape, then look at their work and declare that their art "doesn't work"?

Not every witch is talented at every sort of sorcery. Not creating a potent prosperity spell after five tries doesn't mean you're bad at magic. It might mean that your current understanding of prosperity magic precludes good results, or that you are casting on one very intransigent situation, or that your true talents lie in destruction and chaos instead of peaceful growth.

Set practice goals, give it an honest go, and move on when the time is right: "I am going to practice raising Fire energy and putting it into this stone using the Pore Breathing method. I'm going to do it fifteen times." (3 months later): "That sucked and it never worked, but I did it all fifteen times. Next I'm going to do a grounded roots visualization and use it to channel water energy to cleanse my room." (10 days later): "That was awesome, I want to do it more than 15 times."

Play around and be silly with it. Taking your path seriously is not the same thing as taking your path somberly.

Sports teams practice drills to be ready for game day. Sorcerers are wise to take a page from their book, because when real-life game day arrives, it feels much better to deal with it when you know you've been having pretty good success with channeling water energies, so maybe it's best to do something with that, because you can't move fire for dick.

As a reminder, cultural appropriation isn't about preventing other people from taking part in cool stuff, it was a term invented to specifically describe a people who were already suffering from colonialism and genocide actively watching chunks of their identity being sold off for cheap parts while being forced to cut their hair and change their names and stop speaking their language. Cultural appropriation is an explanation about how an extremely soft form of misuse of cultural artifacts can still damage the culture of a living people as its tools and images are taken for profit and entertainment.

You know who benefits from selling "voodoo" yarn keychains at the grocery store? Not ATR practitioners. You know who benefits from selling dismembered Buddha heads at the local shopping mall? Not Buddhists. You know who benefits from selling that "Indian Bow and Arrow" toy set at the dollar store? Not Native people. You know who benefitted from selling Bindis at Claire's in the early 2000s? Gwen Stefani. No one else. Just her.

When members of a specific culture walk up to you and say, "hey, treating a Wendigo like a new pop culture media creature in your monster of the week content form is really harmful, because despite being evil, its place in our spiritual hierarchy is still part of our religious beliefs, and having inaccurate stories outside of our purview is actually blowing right through several important parts of our oral tradition," why would your response be "no, because it's MY right to alter YOUR story however i want, because gatekeeping is racist." ????? It has no relevance to you. You aren't depending on this. Why do you even care??
