happyheretic asked: I was wondering what info you had on the Goddess Danu. All I can seem to find out is that she is mother of the Gods. All other info contradicts. Also what do you know about Celtic sea gods? I know Lir is one, but I've also read Nuada was one, but I've only found that in one source.

Why Didn’t I Think of That? You know how people are always making magic bath infusions or salts for soaking? If you’re not a bath person or only have a shower, go ahead and infuse kosher or sea salt with the same oils and finely ground herbs and add a bit of olive/almond/avocado/apricot oil to make a body scrub, or add them to a small dish of shower gel. Same goodness, no pruney...

The Best Thing Happened To Me Today In Math Class
fiddlesticksandcustard:
We had a substitute for Math because my actual teacher had personal business to attend to. We weren’t doing much, just some little project, and today it was storming in Texas. So this enormous clap of thunder shakes the walls and everybody starts screaming. Then I look over at the teacher’s desk to see our substitute standing up from his chair and shouting, “Shut up Thor!...

LOL
witchcuntt:
Something I didn’t notice in yesterday’s clusterfuck: The fact that the argument of “SOME of us don’t work with spirits/deities for gain!” with the tone of “I am judging you. JUDGING YOU! How very dare you want more for your life!” was hurled at me and people who operate in a way similar to mine.
Okay, look.
Some of us work with spirits/deities because it just feels right. Some of...

foolish-arachni asked: To the person inquiring how to get rid of an evil spirit...what about it is making you think it is evil? Is it just a sense, do you feel drained of energy when it is around? Is it behaving like a poltergeist? Does it attempt to do scary pranks? Is it manifesting with a voice/physical presence? Is it just annoying? In other words, how dire is the situation. I may have some advice depending...
I am an American Heathen
freyrsman:
I’ve seen some arguments how American heathens should stop trying to be so Scandinavian and be American. Of course, we Americans (and Canadians) don’t really know what that means. Me, I’m of Germanic blood. You can’t spit in the family tree without without hitting a Norwegian, a Swede, or a Dutch(wo)man. However, I grew up in an area heavily influenced by the Polish. My room mate is...

teatime-for-witches asked: Regarding the negative spirit following anon: I don't know the details but have you tried asking what she wants? Communication can solve problems and because you sense her as 'evil' doesn't say she neccessarily is, this could be a perception of your fear (of the unknown) ...?

Anonymous asked: About your follower with the evil spirit, sometimes just firmly stating "I don't want you to follow me any more, you're not welcome around me, and your actions will no longer affect me." Will drive them off. Saying this out loud while crossing running water has worked for me in the past.

Cross-breeding of dogs over thousands of years has made it extremely difficult to trace the ancient genetic roots of today’s pets, according to a new study led by Durham University. An international team of scientists analyzed data of the genetic make-up of modern-day dogs, alongside an assessment of the global archaeological record of dog remains, and found...

Here is what I drew last night (May 5th) during the super moon. I’ve been having difficulties focusing on where I want my path to take me and I intended to do my normal Celtic cross spread, but my question required something different so I made this up on the spot.
I call it La Luna. Here’s how you place the cards and I will tell you what it means.

novas-haven: Best of luck! I’m working on keeping parsley, sage, rosemary, thyme, lemon-balm, and chamomile alive.
Yay gardening! This time I put them in pots instead of the ground, so I won’t have to shock them to move them inside for the cozy WI winters, also so I can maintain them independently.
Hopefully dad doesn’t drown them like the other plants O_o
Also I...

Is that like a plea/request for more people to ask you?
Hey now, I’m not desperate. I just figure with 1,300-something followers more than one person will be interested. Also I like doing witchy things and money or exchange, it’s fun and it’s practice for me and you guys get stuff too.
Also I have no shame.

bellonanj73 asked: It's fairly easy--I use sea salt (esp the big lumpy kind), and the charcoal/remains of burnt herbs of protection (such as basil, garlic, rosemary, etc). You can do them in small amounts in a mortar & pestle, and while crushing the salt and burnt offerings together, just get all your aggression out on them, that you are crushing any and all bullshit that would bring harm to you and yours....

bellonanj73 asked: I made my own witch's salt (oh the fun alone in crushing it!!!). I keep some in my truck in a small vial, and sprinkle it every so often. It's also good when I go somewhere and need that extra negativity-killer.
