Glass Dragon Wyrmling

CR 2 Dragon

Born with shimmering, translucent scales, the glass dragon wyrmling is both delicate and dangerous. Light bends around its form, making it hard to track, and its curious mind eagerly dissects the world around it��sometimes literally.

What secrets will its brilliant gaze uncover when it is in your presence?

Friday the 13th: A Witch’s Guide to Magic and Mystery ๋࣭ ⭑ 

Friday the 13th is almost here, and while many people associate this day with superstition or bad luck, in witchcraft, it’s a time of power and transformation. This day is deeply tied to sacred feminine energy, creativity, and rebirth, making it an ideal moment to honor your intuition and engage in meaningful rituals. 

The Magic of Friday the 13th 

Historically, Friday the 13th was far from unlucky, it was a day of celebration! 

☆ Friday: Ruled by Venus, the planet of love, beauty, and creativity. 

☆ The Number 13: Sacred to the Goddess, it symbolizes cycles, transformation, and spiritual awakening. There are 13 lunar cycles in a year, further connecting this number to divine feminine energy. 

This day invites us to reclaim its magical energy, focusing on self-love, manifestation, and intuitive growth. 

How to Work with Friday the 13th Energy 

☆ Cleanse and Ground 

Start your day with a cleansing ritual to clear away negative energy. 

⟡ Tools: Use sage, rosemary, or a cleansing spray. 

⟡ Intention: “I release all fears and superstitions, and welcome abundance, clarity, and love into my life.” 

☆ Ritual for Manifestation and Creativity 

With Venus’s influence, this is the perfect time to focus on love, beauty, and prosperity. 

⟡ Tools: Green or pink candles, rose quartz, cinnamon, or basil. 

⟡ Practice: Write down your desires, focusing on creativity or relationships, and burn the paper in a fire-safe dish to release them into the universe. 

☆ Journaling and Reflection 

Friday the 13th is a great time to honor cycles in your life. 

⟡ Journal prompts:  

What transformations have I undergone this year? 

What do I need to release to step into my power? 

Astrological Insights 

This year’s Friday the 13th falls during Mars retrograde in Leo and Mercury retrograde, adding layers of introspection and reflection. 

⟡ Mars Retrograde: Reflect on how you assert yourself and revisit creative projects. 

⟡ Mercury Retrograde: Focus on revisiting old ideas, reconnecting with loved ones, and practicing patience in communication. 

A Day of Empowerment 

Friday the 13th reminds us that what’s seen as “unlucky” can be reclaimed as sacred and magical. It’s a day to break free from limiting beliefs, honor your inner power, and connect with the cycles of life. 

✨ How do you celebrate Friday the 13th? Share your rituals and practices! I’d love to hear how you embrace its magic! 🌙

one of the things i love about wha is how clearly the magic and ideas the girls learn and have build on top of each other over time. the continuing theme of magic as solutions, and your own spells can be made by adapting what you know into something new.

in one of her first uses of magic, coco uses fabric to sail through the air at the dagda mountains; she later creates the mantle of flight. the air twisting seal she learns to use to pick fruit becomes part of a spell to create rain underneath the sea. agott uses a bird of light to distract people at the river; later, we learn her love for the decorative seals, and her knowledge comes in use to bring people joy, and to help with the curtain leech. every person has their own magic, and everyone's magic connects together to create new things.

no magic is useless; no magic is too small or too basic. no magic is unloved.

my mental jury is still out on if this really feels epic enough to live up to the mysterious "awakened power" hype but it is a cool and unintentionally funny moment so *applause*

Turning back

I was asked to share a spell I use to turn things back on people. This is the closest thing I have. I don't use it so much to turn actions back on people. But I do use it to encourage reflection on their actions. I don't use it often. Mostly because it requires I get my butt to the dollar store for main item and I tend towards not going to the dollar store. You will need:

A compact mirror with a mirror on both sides. If this is difficult to find, I have in a pinch put aluminum foil on the other side. Not ideal, but it will work. Twine A white candle A black candle A slip of brown paper To begin I like to center myself and think about the specific actions I would like this person to reflect on. I try to keep all my spells as specific at possible. I do this for two reasons. The first being I have found that it truly makes the spells much more successful. And secondly, it keeps that energy exchange very focused. Write the name of the person on the paper. Add notes about the actions you want them to reflect on. As I said, I like to keep it specific, and I have used code and dates etc for that. That part is up to you. Fold the paper tightly and place in the compact. Light both candles. Tie the twine around the compact. Begin dripping both colors of candle wax on the twine. It does not need to be perfect. We are just sealing it up in a primarily symbolic way. When you feel you have done that, it is time to put away the compact. This part is really about how you want to do it. I have a drawer in my altar where I have stored them. I have just buried them. If it is someone you are totally over, throw it away. It really doesn't matter. Or at least it hasn't in my experience. I don't tend to do a lot of verbal spells so there are no chants for this one. But if you are a verbal caster, something like: Take this time to think About how your actions impact Take this time to think About how they have harmed (And here would be where to list those harms) With this I turn my back on your mirror. So mote it be. Or create your own. This spell has worked for me in that it either helped me see that the person's actions weren't worth saving the relationship over. It has also brought me apologies. Have a magical day.

When you feel like there is too much on your plate, you are tired, and something is weighing you down, use this spell to clear your mind and find your centre.

Find a quiet space and meditate for a few minutes. When you feel more grounded, say:

I have the courage to change what I must.

I proceed with perfect love and perfect trust.

I now give to the all-knowing Universe

That which stresses, hurts me, or worse.

I call to me peace and serenity

And release what no longer serves me.

Notice how you feel and notice what thoughts come up. Perhaps something might start to feel out of place, like a task on your to-do list that doesn't serve you.

I was reading the Orphic Argonautica last night and the author has mentioned the various methods of divination Apollo knows and guess what? One of them is prophesying by studying the entrails of organisms. As soon as I read that I was reminded of your headcanon of Apollo being into hepatoscopy for divination and I giggled.

Awww 😳😳It's so nice of you to think of me!

Hehe, so fun fact, the overall practice of divination by studying the entrails of animals (including blood, lungs, intestines and so forth) is extispicy while hepatoscopy is specifically using the liver in prophecy and divination readings.

If, like magic in old text exactly like the sort Medea is described as using, the types of divination spoken about in the texts are reflections of the popular divination cultures of the time, I much rather prefer ascribing those to Apollo than I do some vague, somewhat mysterious power which he uses to see the will of the fates, especially since it's mentioned a few times that he'll teach his sons the language of the birds and how to read their signs and so on and so forth.

In short: HEPATOSCOPY APOLLO IS COOL!! HE'S SO NEAT!! Apollo at the altar who predicts the coming droughts and famines from the entrails of his flock!! It's just such a neat little image (to me)!

Also the Orphic Argonautica bangs, genuinely I hope you enjoy it! Orpheus is an insane man and I do not think him along with the collective subspecies of mythical man known as 'sons of Apollo' get enough credit for how truly unhinged they are at any given point in time.
