I Had A Very Harry Potter Themed Birthday This Year, Thanks Mum And Dad

I had a very Harry Potter themed birthday this year, thanks mum and dad

i dropped off my resume at this place at 1:15 and got called for an interview at 1:45 holy dang

That bit about the birds rings true for me too, I was in South Africa on Table Mountain and I saw these birds flapping around and they had an orange underwing, and I said that they were so beautiful, and the tour guide I was with said that they were a pest. Still don’t know the names for them, so I call them Orange Underwings

everything can be magical if you let it be. i remember the first time seeing red-winged blackbirds i was just…enthralled. i watched them for maybe an hour. i thought they made the sweetest noises and were just so pretty. and i found out later on that people consider them nuisances and pests. they’re literally common all over the united states but because they weren’t familiar to me they weren’t a burden or an annoyance but something beautiful. if we don’t let other people tell us how to feel about things, maybe we can just like things for what they are

please reblog this if your blog is safe for asexuals

A baby witch’s first full moon experience 🌕

Hey this full moon was the first time I did anything particularly moon-related, and I think things worked pretty well!

I decided to start my Book of Shadows last night (and by start I mean I drew Algiz, the rune of protection and a short paragraph about me) and lit some candles (2 big white ones, one little white one in a cat candle holder for Freyja, and a cinnamon spiced one for Loki). Freyja’s candle had some trouble, so I asked that she bless this candle and bless this match, and asked her to help this candle shine beautifully in her honour, and then it did. I did a similar prayer for Loki bc I don’t think he’d like to be left out, and when I checked later, the wax from his candle spilled over, so maybe don’t give a fire god more encouragement 😂 I put the solidified bits of wax on his alter as an offering or something.

I can feel a sort of presence in my hands sometimes, energy I think. Before I had to dance or meditate to really get the feeling going, but this time I just closed my eyes, took a deep breath and it was there.

So yeah, I think things did feel a bit more powerful last night. Not sure if I’ll be able to do something like this every full moon (busy student and all), but if my schedule leaves some free time around the full moon, I’ll do this again

Gourd to see you
