new tarot card "fuck your entire life" and its a guy being attacked by devils and flaming skulls and wild animals and screaming and fire everywhere
Basil was, traditionally, a symbol of courting, particularly in Italy. Young bachelors would give Basil to their partners to declare their feelings, and when a young maiden hung or grew Basil on her windowsill, she was open to finding a partner. This makes it a great addition for love and attraction spells!
Basil is also a natural pest repellent that grows really well alongside tomatoes. In fact, many gardeners basically plant a wall of basil around their tomatoes because it repels bugs, and they just go great together overall.
I learned this from the Rodale Herb Book, which I found in my Dad's library. It's a really old, interesting book about the medicine, history, folklore and gardening of all sorts of herbs! I really recommend it to fellow plant enthusiasts and green witches! You can find copies of it online if you're interested!!
I hear people talk about how punk clothing is expensive, how you don’t have enough money to buy docs so obv you aren’t a real punk, how you can’t buy pins anywhere, how punk jewelry is sooo expensive BULLSHIT
The backbone of punk is diy. Punk is messy, punk is making the best of what you have. Nothing is more punk than making your own beauty with the shit you find scattered about
Wanna have docs? Buy some knock offs for 20 bucks and add some spikes no one will care
Want patches? Embroider on some old fabric. Use paint, bleach, markers, whatever you have. If that’s not good enough, buy from small businesses when you can
Want pins? Make em. Use safety pins and a bottle cap and you got a pin. Just paint something on, if you don’t have paint, I’ve used white out and pens just do whatever. Also fr just um borrow from any big shitty chain store, not from small businesses tho
Want jewelry? Pliers are your best friend. Fix broken jewelry with em, use chains u found to make something. I’ve used a hanging plant wire to make a barbed wire bracelet with nothing but pliers. Just fuck around. Buy from small businesses and again, big shitty chains are fair game
Want spikes and cool metal shit? Literally just take any metal like literally anything and stick it to your clothes. Safety pins, can tabs (esp monster ones bc fun colors) lighter caps, make spikes out of cans, take chains outta the recycle bin
Punk is the most accessible subculture. Punk was made by people with no money, and anyone who tells you you need fancy shit to be punk ain’t a real punk. Punk is about fucking around with the idea of what you should be, so just have fun! There are literally no rules!

‘What is, is what must be’
“There is not a day or night but a doe offers her life for her kittens, or some honest captain of Owsla his life for his Chief Rabbit’s. Sometimes it is taken, sometimes it is not. But there is no bargain, for here, what is, is what must be.”
