It’s that time of year to say no to the Salvation Army.

Never forget they let a Trans woman die instead of helping her.

Never forget they have tossed entire families on the street for having an LGBT child.

Never forget they tell non Christian families that unless they convert they will not help them.

Never forget that the Salvation Army is bigoted and hateful, many of the bell ringers routinely heckle and harass LGBT couples.

“i feel like i have no purpose” You are not a fixed entity. You do not have one grand, singular, constant purpose. As long as you have genuine intent behind your actions, everything you do serves a purpose. As long as you are truly present, you notice that everything contributes to a greater whole. You do not need to dedicate yourself endlessly to one practice to achieve a purpose; allow yourself to oscillate freely between them all. Experiment. You are not one dimensional: treat yourself as such.

To all white wiccans/pagans out there: following a closed deity is racist. Fuck off. You are not allowed to have our deities.

Grounding techniques

Grounding plays an important part in witchcraft. It’s just a fancy way of saying you’re completely aware of your surroundings. For me, a lot of grounding techniques are too boring and I get distracted easily. So here’s a list of grounding techniques I use!

Grab pretty much anything. Notice how it feels. Notice the textures, the sounds it makes as you touch it and move it around. Notice the colors, the smell, maybe it’s taste. 

On both hands, tap each finger to your thumb. Tap your fore finger to your thumb, then your middle finger, ring finger, pinkie, and go back. Make sure you do this on both hands. Using both hands activates both sides of your brain which in turn helps you become more aware.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Look around the room. Find 5 things of one color, then 4 of a different color, and so on and so forth. For example, you could find 5 things that are red, 4 things that are green, 3 things that are black, 2 things that are blue, and 1 thing that is purple. 

You can do the same thing but with your senses. 5 things you can see, 4 things you can touch, 3 things you can hear, 2 things you can smell, and 1 thing you can taste.

Hold ice in your hands.

Eat something spicy or sour.

All of these were taught to me by my therapist and can be used by anyone. Feel free to change them up as needed whether it be to make it more witchy or just more comfy for you

GRIMOIRE TIPS&IDEAS

I’ve heard from quite a few of you that you don’t know what to put in your grimoire, or that you were having a hard time filling it! Here is a jumble of Lapis Cat’s tips & ideas for your grimoire!

Getting started can be hard, for a lot of reasons! I think it took me so incredibly long to do mine because i was so nervous about messing it up.

Different ways to keep your grimoire

- Spiral notebooks

- Composition books

- Binders

- Flash drive/SD card

- In google drive, notes on your phone/computer, online

- I’ve seen a $5 hardback sketchbook from michaels used

I will add, Don’t go off and buy a $65 grimoire that is beautiful for your first one, unless you really just must. You will have many grimoires after this one, and they will get more organized and beautiful as you establish your style over time.

Once you’ve selected your personal book, Its time to gather information to put in it! This is the part i’m often asked about. Nothing is mandatory in a grimoire, and you should add only information that is important to you. The one thing i will suggest you add is a blessing as one of your first pages. I’ve posted a book of shadows blessing in the past <3 Everything listed under this are just ideas for things you can add in!

waters. (1/2)

rain water. rain water can be used in place of any water, for any intention. rainfall is both destructive and restorative, depending on where and how it falls.  leave or hold a container outside during a rain. 

storm water. storm water can be used in work dealing with power. it is strength. rain is only a shower, until it builds into a storm. this can be used for either defense or offense. leave a container outside during a storm. 

hail water. hail water can be used in work dealing with direct damage. hail is water that has been treated too coldly, it lashes out. this can be used for bringing damage or harm. collect hail stones, allow them to melt.

snow water. snow water can be used in work dealing with rebirth. snow is a fresh slate, it covers what is beneath, it smothers the old. it washes away, leaving room for a new beginning. collect clean snow, allow it to melt.

salt water. salt water can be used in work dealing with cleansing, and protection. salt water is security. it is the planet’s well. it is the ever-present resource, and it is a force to be reckoned.  collect rain water, add sea-salt.

moon water. moon water can be used in work dealing with passive energies. collect rain water, allow to bask in moonlight.

sun water. sun water can be used in work dealing with active energies. collect rain water, allow to bask in sunlight.

application to the craft: water is a common and important supply in the craft. in spell jars and bottles, in cleansing and charging, in offerings, in altars, in kitchen and bath magick, scrying and divination, the list goes on. water in itself a highly spiritual entity, but using water from a source compatible with your intentions can only serve to intensify its effect. i’ve written before about using the environment to aid your craft, this is an extension of that. just as any material we use, water comes from somewhere. how it came into the world is innately linked to its energy.

did it pour down onto the ground, flooding away soil, stones, and bits of earth?

did it peacefully bask in the presence of moonshine and stardust?

you could collect during a moon phase that compliments your intentions for even an even greater effect.

note: when cleansing/charging items, be sure to research the item beforehand- many things can be damaged by sunlight, water, and salt.
