I put a small bit of my blood in my wand before setting the jade stone in the pommel of it. Not as a spell or anything, but just to have that extra thing that connected it to me and made it mine. But I had already cut my thumb while whittling it so like... it wasn't 100% intentional? It just kind of happened and then I went, eh, why not?

Hey guys, I'm back!
Sorry I've been absent this week - I had a biology test today that I was studying for. I'm still worried that I flunked it, though. It was a lot harder than I was anticipating. Whoops. But some interesting things have been happening these past few days.
Firstly, the crickets - I remember a few weeks back I posted about finding heaps of crickets around my house? Yeah, well, they're still here. There were another two in the kitchen this week, and yesterday I opened the linen press to get a towel and a huge cricket jumped out, landed on my chest and stayed there a minute, then jumped away. I don't really know what it means, but I'm hoping that its a sign that this year is going to be a good year for me. I really need it.
Secondly, the feather - the other day when I was walking my dog, I came across a perfect striped feather. This may seem pretty regular, except it was sitting in the middle of the top step of a set of stairs in my local park. It just seems a little too coincidental to be a random find, especially since I've been dreaming of a hawk a lot lately. I certainly feel like someone is sending me signs. I'm going to meditate tonight to try and find out who.
Furthermore, I haven't been able to contact the strange deer-headed figure I saw about two weeks ago. I'm not sure if something specific, that I don't have, is required to summon him, or if our conversation was just a one time thing. I'd really appreciate any insight on the matter, since id love to talk to him again.
On blood magic - its not something I've ever considered, or ever felt I've needed to try, but it does intrigue me. I'd love to know more about it.

Not much really. I had a great time with my girlfriend today though lately I've been having an extreme sense of guilt because I haven't been able to put aside enough time to make more offerings to Odin or meditate or anything like that >~<

i actually did do an informal i guess blood magic involved spell. I dont know if i did it right but i did something. I dont think its that bad or anything to use blood in spells. i think depending on the spell it might strengthen it

I'm glad you and your girlfriend had fun!
Don't feel guilty, Sour! The one thing that I really like about Paganism is that its a very personal thing, and that there are no demands for doing things at any specific time. I'm sure that when you find the time, everything will be fine. I'm sure Odin will understand
Hey Ghostie!
Oh, odd question - do you guys spend any time on Reddit? Specifically the nosleep subforum?

I have a friend who links me to funny stuff on reddit sometimes, but besides that no.
I keep seeing ravens/crows/black birds in general around pretty frequently lately. Not sure what to do about it or what it means. And a little too tired today to bother figuring it out.

Post by Deleted on Feb 14, 2017 22:22:38 GMT -5
I love when I find feathers laying around.
As for odd things I collect, I have keys. Like.... tons of keys. Random ones I either found or bought. I'm sure some of them probably go to like peoples houses but idk where they live or whatever and don't plan on robbing anyone so ig it doesn't matter. I like keys tho.

I don't see why they'd be illegal. Assuming youre just finding them and not like actually ripping them off of birds lmao.

I don't know what those ravens and crows might mean but I know that ravens are tied with Amaterasu. She turned into one once I believe and they are a good symbol especially 3 legged ones. that's just my little fun facts tho idk what they mean if anything. I just really love Amaterasu lol I need to talk to her tho I've been letting my shufflemancy or just what I feel decide who I talk to in the car. Today it was Persephone cause I wanted to ask for some courage and the ability to see how to go on this path I want to take. I wanna try to be an actress even tho I know I don't have a big shot but I feel like I can do it if I try so I want courage. Sorry for rambling I meant to only say the stuff on the birds I'm sorry >~<

Yo don't worry about it. I felt so guilty for forgetting to set out catnip for Bast yesterday so I did it today and also burned a vanilla incense for Iris. I was also gonna try talking to Odin tomorrow maybe if I felt like it.

Egh...I keep getting the feeling nothing is working and that there's something blocking me from being able to do meditations and stuff properly.

That's kind of a bummer. I'm not sure what to suggest. Do you have any clear quartz around?

Post by Sour Candy on Feb 15, 2017 17:18:05 GMT -5
I think I have some somewhere at home

Post by Deleted on Feb 15, 2017 17:20:37 GMT -5
Try holding them in your palms and envision whatever is bothering you/negativity becoming a great big black ball going out through the tip of the clear quartz and into the ground and not coming back.

Idk why but also if I start to get angry or frustrated, writing down whatever is pissing me off and then setting the piece of paper on fire and watching it burn is super satisfying.

I've done that before. It's amazing

Setting things on fire is just like instant stress relief anyways.
Or maybe I'm just a little bit pyro.
