does vedic charts it's read exactly the same as western? like, the planet and signs have the same meanings? if not, can you link me to a site where's talk more about how to read my vedic chart, please?

the vedic houses have related or other meanings in particular. they're arranged in a grid rather than the western chart's circle:

planets and signs, i'd say little bit different, but easy to learn, i promise. lots of parallels. the degrees within the system and planetary aspects, rulers, completely new story but very exciting:

the 27 moon nakshatras aka decans aren't found in tropical charts and restructure the whole zodiac. that's the part where research is the most extensive, a lot of new terms and meanings to learn.

it's good to find your own moon's nakshatra and start from there, it's like finding your moon sign in western astrology and lots of fun. using moon decans for a chart is just marvelous to do, and each has symbols and planets and stories that go with it.

vedic astrology also goes the extra mile and has up to 9 (yes) alternative charts for specific aspects in your life which is pretty handy. for instance, the so-called D10 chart shows your career. or, the D9 chart your romantic life. but usually, jyotish doesn't interpret all at once and stick to the regular chart first, so not to worry.

Cleansing simmer pot for Imbolc

adjusted from: thewholesomewitch.com

This is the very first actual ritual I did. I have been learning for a good 2 years now but I have never performed magick since it never felt right. But this time it did. I celebrate Imbolc early because I don't have much time during the weekdays, so I had my little celebration the weekend before :)

Materials:

a small pot

3 lemon slices (I didn't want to waste any so I used 4)

for love, purification, longevity, and friendship.

2tbsp lavender (I added some more later for good measure because it just smelled so good)

for happiness, peace, protection, purification, and sleep.

2tbsp chamomile flowers (I used 'expired' calming tea that had chamomile in it)

for sleep, peace, love and purification

1 tbsp rosemary and 1 tbsp vanilla extract

for healing, love, protection and purification

Instructions:

The most important thing is to think about what you want to achieve with this simmer pot. I really wanted to clear the house from any negative energy and entities, to clear the house from any anger or sadness we've had the past year and to fill the house with a clean positive and calming energy. Keep this in your mind.

Fill the pot with water (I just filled it to half because I wasn't sure how long it would take to cook down), and mindfully add your ingredients. Bring it to a boil.

Once boiling, lower the heat to a simmer. Stir clockwise to bring in positive energy (good health, prosperity, love, happiness and peace) and counter clockwise to banish the misunderstandings, miscommunications, arguments etcetera. Recite some words, I just used the ones from thewholesomewitch: ‘I cleanse this place in time and space. Negativity I set you free. As my will, so mote it be.’

Take a deep loving breath in, and another loving breath out. Feel your lungs filling with this new positive energy and visualize the negative going up up and away with the steam. Keep chanting, visualizing and stirring until it feels right to stop.

Leave the pot simmering until there is only a centimeter or so of water left and turn it off. Your ritual is complete.

My results

First of all the smell was absolutely amazing, I am definitely going to be doing more simmer pots. Maybe even instead of incense. We have a small home so incense can get overpowering very easily plus we also have pets, simmer pots are a much safer option for me.

Second, my family was quite stressed and angry this day. Lots of pressure from other family and friends rested on our shoulders but the moment the simmer pot was done it felt so much lighter. We even just fell asleep on the couch so calm and at ease haha

THIS IS THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN

Would you help me with cosplaying Misa? Like, if you know some of her outfits from manga, anime and maybe live action movies, musicals and tv drama, could you share them? Thanks you ^^

Gladly! Sorry it took so long, I was quite busy with family issues and exam studying, but hopefully you didn’t need your cosplay plans ready in just a few days, haha. I’m really sorry, but I disregarded the parts of this ask that referred to any of the three live action adaptions because manga/anime is already a tremendous task and I am far less well-versed in any other versions of canon.

But with manga and anime, I gave it my best for you.

The concept art shots are all from Death Note Volume 14, the animation guidebook. I just cleaned up the scans a little, but I did not scan it.

Another thing of note is that the color manga’s coloring choices were likely not decided by Obata as they sometimes openly contradict his art - it is an official version of canon, but not the be-all-end-all in canon color choices. I tried to contrast the changes that were made to Misa’s outfits between the adaptions so you can decide on which you’d rather cosplay. (I am missing some detail reference shots though, so if you decide to cosplay a version I’d recommend reviewing the scenes for yourself to catch everything!) Now…

Here’s a list of Misa’s outfits in manga and anime with reference images as far as available!
