i haven’t seen this talked about on tumblr a lot but i’ve seen it all over twitter so please spread this:

there is a new sex trafficking method of sending women these texts (and these aren’t other people’s screenshots, these are texts that were sent to ME):

if you receive this kind of text, block the number immediately and do NOT click on the link. it leads to websites that give you the ability to “track your package,” when in reality, it is YOUR location being tracked.

i myself almost fell for this and i luckily called my apartment’s leasing office to check if i had any packages i never picked up and they said no.

spread this please because i’ve seen a LOT of others say they’ve received these kinds of texts, so there’s likely to be more who are unaware it’s a scam.

BOOST

HOLD UP.

THATS WHAT THOSE ARE.

IVE BEEN GETTING THESE AND DELETING THEM FOR WEEKS.

Omg this actually works!!! Thank you 10 of Pentacles!!!

I could seriously use this money right now….

Please give me my refund of 400$ soon…

I feel obligated to reblog this every time it shows up in my dash

No bragging, just 100% floored and grateful. Work hard, maintain a positive attitude, and believe that anything can happen.

So I reblogged this exactly a week ago because I thought it was funny and uh lo and behold, a family friend wrote me a big ol’ check just to help me out of a tough financial spot AND my bank refunded me $32 for fees they’d originally taken out. SO UH YEAH. Reblogging this again in hopes that it brings equally good fortune to my followers.

a tip for witches with low energy, chronic pain, or really any witch who ever finds themselves in a pinch...

pre-prep your spells. have emergency spells ready on-the-go or in a pinch. here’s how:

Get a satchel, matchbox, or similar thing to carry. You’re making a lil spell pouch that you can throw in your purse or bookbag, keep in your pocket, or keep by your bed.

You will want to keep these for any intents you commonly use such as general protection, anti-anxiety, luck, etc.

Some things you may want to include:

  • pre-make sigils that you can tear, burn, wet, or otherwise destroy to activate when needed
  • pre-written incantations for general needs
  • charms or talismans that already have this intention
  • relevant stones or crystals that are small
  • a pinch or leaf of relevant herbs
  • a small tube or otherwise of any salts, waters, and oils you might want
  • string for binding
  • a match and something to strike on

This is fairly similar to a pocket altar, but it’s a bit more specific. For example, if you want a quick anti-stress spell for throughout the day to keep with you through a tough week of classes. Perhaps make a sigil on paper, select a bit of your chosen anti-stress herb, and write some words of affirmation down in your little container. When you’re feeling overwhelmed, you can go to the bathroom, say those words to yourself in a mirror, wad the herb up in your sigil paper and rub it through water while you do to activate it, and dispose of the paper in the trash and leave some of your stress with it.

I find that preparing these little things ahead of time means I don’t have to expend the energy when I don’t quite have it and allows me to be a little more prepared with the time comes.

I hope one of you finds this helpful. :) If you guys are interested, I can post some ideas for specific on-the-go sachets like this with pre-made sigils and potential ingredients.

100% TRUE

Pro tip: If you copy and paste a link that said “no free articles” into a private/incognito browser, it will let you read the whole thing.

also if u press the “esc” (escape) key on ur laptop before the page fully loads, it won’t load any pop-ups blocking u from reading. if the article has images, then this method sometimes does not u see them. but! the words will be fine :)

I didn’t know this wasn’t common knowledge. Reblog reblog reblog. It should be.

Some sites (like the LA Times) also only hide the text rather than not loading it, so you can View Source on your browser and find the article text hidden in the code.

Pick Your Pokémon
A Tarot Spread for the Making of Your Path

Cherubis, Budews, and Bellsprouts, I had another Pokéspread idea I just have to share with you.

This spread idea follows a lot like gameplay of Pokémon Red. You, Red, have just arrived at Oak’s Lab with your rival, Blue, to receive your very first Pokémon. It’s a big world out there, and you and this Pokémon you choose are going to go through all of it. Gym battles, trainer battles, catching new pokémon, stopping bad guys, and becoming the true champion of the game. The destiny of this path lies before you - who do you pick?

We’ll be using this as a metaphor for life: to represent us, enemies, teachers, and varying traits of all. What we pull in this spread shows us what we, a little budding trainer, are going out into the world with.

Without further ado, here’s how to ‘play’ this spread…

Step One: Red, Blue, and Professor Oak

These are represented in the diagram by the big more primary shaded boxes.

  • Red is you. Pull this card to see the innate attitudes and gifts you brought into this life.
  • Blue is your rival. Pull this card to show who those you wish to keep you down are, what they stand for.
  • Green is professor oak. Pull this card to show your teacher (life guardians) of your youth and the knowledge they instilled in you as a fledging being.

Step Two: The Pokéballs

Lay out three cards like the pokéballs on the table. See the tiny diagram for the pokéballs? These colours represent the game play. Red pokéball is charmander the fire pokémon, blue is squirtle the water pokémon, and green is bulbasaur the grass pokémon. These three cards represent them in this order. Now, there are two methods of how you may pick.

  • Intuitive: Pick your pokéball/pokémon and put it in front of your card, then pick the traditional foe placement for your rival, and the leftover pokémon for professor oak.
  • Game Play: Pick the pokéball/pokémon you are most likely to pick in game play and place it in front of your card, then pick the traditional foe placement for your rival, and the leftover pokémon for professor oak.

Whichever method you choose, you and your rival now have your first pokémon, whilst one is left on Oak’s table.

Step Three: The Battle

Once you go to exit, Blue asks to battle, right? Well, flip your cards and see what forces are at play. These chosen pokémon are represented by the darker colours in the main diagram.

  • Dark Red is your pokémon. This represents a skill you wield in the world, your battle weapon and sword against barriers and negativity.
  • Dark Blue is your rival’s pokémon. This represents what hateful people will use against you and try to belittle you with, the obstacles you face.
  • Dark Green is Oak’s retired pokémon. This represents something not fully affirmed in childhood, a teaching left behind that you may need to work on and revisit.

And that’s it! You’re on your quest to catch 'em all!

I really hope this spread helps someone out there ❤️

Your Eeveelutions Tarot Spread

Hello, sweetpeas and beansprouts!

A lovely follower of mine was talking with me about pop culture witchcraft, and I started thinking about the examples I’ve seen of Sailor Moon and things, and then I suddenly thought: Eeveelution Tarot. And I had to make it.

This spread uses the eeveelutions to explore different aspects of you, who you are, what you have, and what you may need to hear.

The layout is exactly like the wheel above with a normal ‘Eevee card’ in the middle.

Eevee: You currently

Jolteon: What sparks your energy and revitalises you?

Flareon: What inspires your drive and ignites your passions?

Umbreon: What’s your shadow side, the part no one sees?

Leafeon: How are you growing and blossoming?

Sylveon: What is your magic talent on earth?

Glaceon: What is something you need to ice out and let go of?

Espeon: What is something you know in your mind, an innate fact of yourself?

Vaporeon: What is something powerfully fluid about you, that adapts like water with the power of a mertail?

I hope this spread really comes to help someone discover who they are 💙

~10 Kinds Of Magical Books~

1. Book Of Shadows- A witch’s book of spells, rituals, personal feelings, etc. It is a general book for any metaphysical or religious information that you wish to put into it, among other things.

2.Bestiary- A sometimes hand-written encyclopedia or manual of mythological and magical creatures and beings, used for reference when you want to work with a non-human energy, or for general research. 

3.Grimoire- Usually filled with tables and charts, lists relating to astrological, numerical, and color correspondences; properties of crystals, herbs, trees, etc. Contains moon phase meanings and medicinal properties of plants- This one has an old-timey textbook feel to it, usually.

4.Book Of Mirrors- a special journal, where you ‘reflect’ on things going on in your day to day life, providing deep insights which are invaluable when you’re doing work regarding personal growth. Very helpful with developing personal spiritual philosophies.

5.Book Of Moons- A book entirely relating to the moon and it’s cycles, names of the moons of each month, their attributes and energies, dates of lunar eclipses as well as full moon dates of upcoming moons. Filled with vast knowledge of lunar attributes and special dates of red moons, blue moons, etc.

6.Dream Journal- Here you record the dreams you have in as much detail as you can remember, and some people draw images from their dream adventures in this book as well, since dreams use the language of symbolism and imagery. You interpret the meanings of your dreams in here too, if you wish. Dreams can help us get a glimpse into our subconscious and the more dreams you write the easier it becomes for you to remember them.

7. Book of Visions- A vision book is used with the law of attraction, it is a ‘vision board’ in book form. Put different images of things you want in life, be they experiences, physical items, money, health, etc, in the pages of the book. Open the book up to pictures of what you want to visualize having. Think of this as an on-the-go vision board, except with much more space as there are so many pages!

8.Book Of Positive Aspects- At the top of each page you write the name of a topic that you are unhappy with, like ‘the workplace’  for example. Below the topic title you begin listing all the positive aspects of the subject, and by the end of your list your emotions will be in a much better place regarding the topic. You can do a list a day or many in one sitting, it is a valuable tool for cultivating positive energy or for switching viewpoints on things that normally would upset you.

9.Gratitude Journal- A book where you write about EVERYTHING you are thankful and appreciative for in your life right now. You feel overwhelmed with love and positivity when writing in this book, which aids you in raising your vibration and frequency.

10. Book Of Intuitions- a psychic journal, it’s a book where all divination and psychic exercises are recorded, ranging from full tarot spreads, to tea leaf readings, even psychic impressions you pick up off people. It’s handy for tracking progress as well as for record keeping.
