Possible Signs of Mental Illness/Neurodivergence in a World With Dæmons

a dæmon that’s always asleep

a human and their dæmon always needing to touch somehow, even if it’s not convenient

a human and their dæmon that never touch, unless they absolutely have to

a dæmon that never speaks, even to their partner

conversely, a dæmon that never stops speaking

a human and their dæmon constantly fighting

a dæmon that can’t ever sit still

a dæmon that just can’t muster the energy to move 

a dæmon that keeps hurting their human (and vice versa), even when they don’t mean to

a dæmon that’s always criticizing their partner

a dæmon that constantly switches spontaneously between hyperactive and lethargic

a dæmon that’s always hiding, even when they’re around people they trust

i was having a good time watching his dark materials but then i remembered

Jake: Crap.

Finding out you were wrong is okay, and you didn't make a mistake. Self understanding doesn't happen overnight. Think of it like a sprout. The more it grows the more it needs tending. Sometimes we take it too far in our overzealous excitement, doing more damage than good. We overtend, drowning the new potential with any new wealth of knowledge we suddenly come across. Grabbing at others' opinions like its the only answer to what we seek. Self understanding takes experience and experience takes time. Do not get lost in finding yourself and forget to simply enjoy existing as you are now. No one will know how to tend to you better than yourself. Do not stress if your way is different or if it is not producing the same results at the same rate. This is your seed, it's only going to behave in accordance to you. Form finding and daemon connections are unique. Do not rush, try to nurture yourselves instead.

FIVE YEARS WITH THE GODS: what I've learned

Don't fixate on the notion of being "called" by a particular deity or "claimed" by them. It'll only lead to confusion, misinterpretation, or disappointment. Instead, pay attention to your gut. What feels right? What names, symbols, or spheres of influence resonate with you or intrigue you?

Sometimes, we are presented with or drawn to gods we may not expect. In this case, we often need to look past the superficial aspects of a deity to understand why we feel drawn to them.

You will develop an insatiable appetite for knowledge, but let yourself digest information and experiences before proceeding to something new. Set aside time to reflect on your learning. Journaling is the perfect complement to research.

Make sense of your own perceptions and ideas before digging too deeply into the perceptions of others.

Our paths will inevitably wander into unfamiliar fields. Enjoy the journey. Make room for new modes of belief.

You will feel like a beginner for a long time. This is a good sign; it means you're growing something profound...and staying humble.

You are almost always overthinking things.

Feeling stressed out over your spirituality is not a good sign. Adjust accordingly and convey your thoughts to the gods as you go.

It's okay to release a deity from your practice. This does not make you a failure or a terrible person. Relationships change, and so do you.

You will need breaks from your practice. Spirituality is not a side hustle; let go of your guilt and rest.

Doubt and skepticism will be steadfast companions on your journey. Question everything.

In the end, your path belongs to you alone. No one else has power over what you practice.

Some headcanons!

Touch ID! Phones can regongise a dæmon’s paw print or maybe a feather print or just their skin in general as well as yours, so that if you’re in an emergency your dæ can unlock your phone for you! (Also would probably end up with you finding a lot of selfies your dæ took whilst you were looking away from your phone)

Playgrounds! Playgrounds having special adaptations so dæmons of all shapes and sizes can play with their humans. Would probably include more open spaces for bigger dæs and not having climbing frames that are so narrow and closed in, whilst also having places where children with smaller dæs can hide out and feel protected and closed in. Also the playgrounds would probably be bigger in general for kids with bigger dæmons and if the people caring for them have bigger dæs

Sleepovers with your dæ! Kids and teens staying up late with their dæmons and nicking sweets from the cupboards. Watching scary films on their phone and comforting eachother when it gets scary (and trying not to be too loud and wake up parents).

Feel free to add more! Like seriously, add more we are obsessed with modern dæmon headcanons 😂

Being a witch

expectation: im gonna use this candle to heat up this moon water with the herbs i need to help keep intrusive thoughts and bad energy away from me

reality: *rubbing quartz on my forehead and temples, visualizing my brain* alright so listen up fucker i dont need your negativity, so cut the shit

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!
