And omg another idea!!!
She could fall inlove with a little pond witch whos familiar is a duck or something! An she will be like a kinde soul but she looks like golish and then she teaches the sea witch how to be less evil, but she will still be like evil-ish ofc!!!
I can't stop thinking about a sea witch, and instead of having a crow as her familiar she insted has a seagull. And she is like an evil witch but she looks like super nice and like calm, and her seagull just looks super silly...
Should I maybe draw her?

What Are Your Predictions/Hopes For Season 2?
I’m curious to know people’s predictions and hopes for season 2. I don’t doubt season 2 is going to be great and I’m so excited for this summer. Personally, I don’t have any predictions since I’m mostly the type of fan who “enjoys the ride rather than wonder what the destination will be.” But I do have some hopes.
-Season 2 to be more character driven than plot driven.
-Flashbacks of Crowley as an angel or just more hints on why/how he fell.
-Some physically affectionate moments between Aziraphale and Crowley like holding hands.
-Aziraphale wearing a different outfit for a few scene or an episode(more as a fun moment than anything else).
-Anathema, Newton, Adam, Shadwell, Madame Tracy, and the Them mentions
-More angels and demons who don’t fit the status quo of what angel and demon should be
-More Ineffable Husbands scenes throughout centuries
-Another witch character(but I think it would work better in a possible S3)
-More long hair Crowley scenes

Good morning witchlings, witches, wizards, deities, entities, people and other such alike.
This is your daily reminder that you are cared for and appreciated.
Also, can we all agree that bread (of any kind) tastes good? I feel like it isn't appreciated enough.
Also, have some cats (art is not mine!! idk the artist, I just found it, if you know who made it, please do tell me.)
fadingskies' guide to: Sigils
So, what are sigils?
Sigils are symbols used commonly by witches to change or alter a situation, way of life or bring new things in. Sigils can be an effective way of manifestation or protection. Sigils are symbols charged with the intent of the person who uses them.
How can I make sigils?
There are numerous methods to create sigils, but I'm going to share my preferred method and the one I choose to use. You will first need to start out by coming up with a strong intent for your sigil. It works better if your intent sounds as if you already have it. Instead of "I will be protected" try to use "I am protected from all who wish ill upon me or my loved ones". Notice how the last one was in present tense and was very specific about the sigil's purpose. I tend to cross out all vowels and repeating letters, as it makes the sigils easier to draw and less complex, but you can do whatever you'd like. Next you should look up "numerology alphabet chart" in images, which will come up with a chart with number and letters. Match the letters from your intent to numbers, and write them all down.
Now with the numbers, here comes the drawing, fun part. You'll next want to make a circle with the numbers 1-9, the order can be however you'd like, personally I just do them in their standard order. With the numbers, you can use them like a guide to a dot-to-dot, but that's really all sigil making is. A powerful dot-to-dot. Connect the numbers in order, and now you have a sigil. If you feel it looks a little bland, you can decorate your sigils however you'd like. I like doing mini-triangles in the corners, dashes through lines, circles on corners, ect. Your sigils are your own, have fun with it!
Where can I put sigils?
Anywhere! You can put your sigils wherever you'd like! I have sigils nearly everywhere in my house; my wardrobe (my wardrobe is kept in the corner of my room, before starting my witchcraft journey I was always getting bad vibes from my wardrobe), my pantry (I am sick of ants or the rats my cat brings in devouring my food!), my bookshelf, my bed and my desk (I want to bring productivity and intelligence to that area of my room).
Blessed Be, my little witchlings
fadingskies' guide to: Cleansing
So, what is Cleansing?
Cleansing is a gentle form of the removal of energies. Cleansing removes unwanted energies latched onto objects, people or spaces and purifies. Witches use cleansing before spells or rituals, to clean the vibe from new objects in their lives or to get rid of any bad vibes.
How can I cleanse?
You can cleanse using whatever method calls out or works for you, as your craft needs to be tailored to your boundaries, interests and intuition. Here are some popular methods:
Smoke cleansing - Smoke cleansing uses bundles of dried herbs or flowers, or incense
Sound cleansing - Sound cleansing uses bells, windchimes, singing bowls, high vibrational songs or just songs you find powerful that can radiate good vibes and remove old ones
Cleansing sprays - Cleansing sprays can be sprays made of Florida Water or essential oil
Essential oils - Essential oil cleansings can be using a diffuser with essential oils, using a cotton ball and wiping surfaces down or creating a cleansing spray
Crystal cleansing - Crystal cleansing uses crystal by walking around and through spaces with crystals or putting crystals in set locations.
Salt - Salt can be sprinkled or scattered around a place to purify it
Water cleansing - Water cleansing uses tap or charged water to cleanse a space, you can use it in a diffuser, pour droplets in certain places or spray it
Fire cleansing - Fire cleansing uses the element of fire to cleanse a space, you can use a candle or ashes
Lemon wedges cleansing - Lemon wedge cleansing is by far my favourite, coat several lemon wedges in salt, catch the bad vibes and dispose of them, when the shrivel up
Is there anything important to note?
Yes, there is! Never use anything from another culture that you have not been welcomed to; whether it be a spell, ritual, holiday, plant or music. Plants like white sage and palo santo are not to be used by anyone outside of the culture they are sacred to. Also, please note, your are "smoke cleansing" if you aren't Native American. Don't say "smudging" please, don't piss me off.
And like all areas of witchcraft, the root of cleansing is the intent. Anyone can throw salt in every direction or wave a smoking stick around, but to truly drive away negative energy you need to intend for your choice of cleansing to do just that.
Blessed Be, my little witchlings!
Here's my inktober drawings from day one, two and three! I was busy with studying the past couple of days, but now I have time! Hooray! Anyways, I'm using the 2017 31 witches prompt from @31witches ! Their prompts are pretty cool so give them a look!

However Sir Stradivarius might play a bigger role in this than he thought…

a day in the life of a green witch.
to honor nature and use it in our crafts.
it shows in the way we hang our herbs to the flowers strewn about our home. it's in everything we touch, and everything we see.
we respect nature, and the earth thanks us for it.
the energy tonight is so intense. cherish it, work with it, and most importantly, respect it.
this type of energy is rare. remember to light a candle to honor the blue moon, amidst whatever else you have planned for tonight.
happy samhain ✨🕯️

and i need to address a few things, as well. i'm a pretty neutral page, and being uplifting to those just starting out in their practice is something i enjoy doing. positivity and encouragement is extremely important.
i've been seeing a lot of "you're a real witch when___" lately
no. just no.
you're a real witch regardless if you're self sufficient or not. look up spells if it's needed, find a mentor if it's needed, educate and find yourself with your pace. it does not mean you're any less.
you're a real witch if you don't have a grimoire, or you don't have your spells memorized.
you're a real witch if you fall into depression and find it hard to practice. make sure your deities know this, find little ways to keep them happy.
you're a real witch, regardless of race, sexuality, whether you're just starting out or you've been practicing for years.
you're a real witch if you're not gatekeeping.
don't discourage our young witches. they need reassurance too. there is no wrong or right way to practice, as long as you're aware of which practices are closed and shouldn't be used unless you're from that heritage.
you're a witch, period. stop telling people that they have to fit a certain criteria to be a "real witch"
i don't believe that you become a witch. it was within and around you all along.
every time you'd collect rocks as a child, or spoke to the moon when you needed comfort, or even when that warm, tingling sensation would hit you while walking in the woods. it was always the little things that didn't quite make sense.
it was calling to you, remember that. you're no less just because you figured it out later.
self care is going into a thrift store and buying random items that work well with your craft. jars, bowls, candle holders, spice shelves, otherwise nonwitchy objects that can easily be personalized. i've bought some of my most favorite alter items from thrift stores.
it's a surreal feeling. and i wanna feel it again.
Participating in the BLM movement comes in various forms, and regardless of what's contributed, we need you.
For those in the front line, risking your lives every single day to ensure that black voices are heard— I stand with you. You are brave, you are change, you are revolution. Be safe, be smart, cover your identifying aspects, research ways to counteract police attacks safely. Use sigils, use protection, BE protection. We see you, we hear you.
For those that cannot be there in the protests, I urge you to be loud. Share verified information, donate to organizations that contribute to the cause, support your local black owned businesses (they need us more than ever), join the July 7th boycott. You are just as important as these protestors.
Witches, these protestors and the like need us. June 5th, on the full moon, there will be a mass casting. Do your part. Spell jars, hexes, jinxes, curses, sigils, candle lighting, whatever you can possibly contribute— I urge you to do it.
No Justice. No Peace.
We fight for the silenced.
BLM ✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 ACAB
perhaps, soon, i will be one with nature.
where i've always belonged.
do you feel it, too? everything feels off within the veil. the Earth is giving off signals, and no one can seem to read them. is she distressed? is she happy?
something's coming and it's eerie to see how many other witches feel it too.

it grows everywhere. it takes over even the simplest of structure. but do not fret, because once you appreciate its' beauty, it will become your friend. it is necessary.

Green Witch Tip:
Cork Planters | Carved Chalices!
If you have limited space, or you enjoy tiny versions of pretty things like the goblins we are, cork planters are the perfect option for you!
I typically use a pocket knife to carve out the hole, and then a dremel to smooth the edges and/or make a creative design! The nails are typically used for stability. Remember to use succulent specific mulch or potting soil!
I also enjoy carving mini chalices like above, especially for my altar! You can add all sorts of things inside, like herbs, succulents, salts, crystals, etc! Whatever your deity/ies may desire.

mushrooms are forest babies, sacred and protected and loved. respect them. they are a powerful tool.
your grimoire does not have to be full of water colors, or illustrations, or dried plants, or essential oil infused ink. your pages do not have to be pristine, you don't have to include aesthetic tapes, or pretty polaroids.
you're allowed to mess up. your grimoire can have tears, or burns, or coffee stains, or wrinkled pages from the time you spilled your tea all over the place. it can be written in .5 mechanical pencil led or crayon.
the point is, your grimoire is apart of you. and if you love it, then you're doing it right.
