Sooo you’ve done how BTS see their soulmates energetically...What about how the soulmates see them energetically ?

Of course! The post I made was how the soulmates presents themselves to me energetically! If anyone in bts or any of the soulmates are able to read energies they would look very different. If they were to meditate to meet each other, or if they were to seek their presence, they would show up to each other like this:

Energy reading takes time and a lot of effort to develop 😅 this would be the baseline! You would only be able to see how a person's soul/energy looks like! The next stage would be seeing auras, then certain features like eyes, noses, jewelry, etc. The next stage would be how they perceive themselves, and further than that it would be the energetic presence of their higherself! In some cases the energy would look different, depending on their current emotion or how they are as a person. Sometimes if someone is feeling down their energy would look as if it is dark with holes shining light, other times they would be really bright that it kind of hurts your eyes, like this!

practices to bond with your deities

i'm most familiar with Greco-Roman deities so i'll use them for examples, but feel free to ask me about a specific deity! which Greco-Roman deity you should work according to your birth chart indications

communication

say "good morning" / "good night" - this is not only out of respect but developing a habit to include them more and more in day to day life

talk to them - whether you're expressing gratitude, praying, asking for advice, or even just talking to them about your day, this will show you are thinking about them and looking up to them. if you feel uncomfortable or can't talk out loud, a journal works just as well

write to them - speaking or journaling, writing is an art form they will appreciate. make journal entries to them, write them a poem or a song. it doesn't have be a fancy, even just phrases here and there will make a huge difference

document your experiences - after spending time with them, write down how it went. keep track of what they seem to like, what they tell you, even small details that don't seem to stick out because when you go back and look, they might stick out then or you might notice patterns

share your food - giving your deity a small portion of your food each time you eat is a way to communicate your honor and respect to them, and also learn what foods/drinks they enjoy

divination - this is more than just tarot cards! there's other forms of cartomancy, there's dowsing, numerology, etc. i personally use astrology <3

connect with their energy - doing activities that appeal to your deity regularly with strengthen your connection with them. for example, my deities are Diana/Artemis and Luna/Selene, so I spend a lot of time in nature, especially at night under the moonlight

honoring

research them in great detail - to get to know your deity, learn everything there is to know: names and epithets, symbols, attributes (plants trees, stones, animals, planets, week days, etc.) domains, family, popular stories and myths

cook a full meal - you can decide on a meal that is associated with them (like steak for Mars/Ares) but you don't have to, either way just dedicating time and energy to make an entire meal just for them will say a lot

altar - this is probably what you will hear the most, but don't feel heavy pressure. it doesn't have to be huge, fancy, or expensive; you can start out with literally just a candle and some leaves. slowly over time decorate and personalize it to your and your deity's liking

offerings - this is more than just sharing your food with them, it's actually giving something solely to them. have you ever been in the mood for a certain food even though you weren't hungry at all? that might be them hinting that they want it. gifts that you think they'd like or you felt called to get, including crafts you made yourself

share your worship - i want to say this is 100% not a necessity, so don't feel stressed if there is no one you can talk to about your deity work. i have no one to talk to about it, but i share freely on this blog and am trying to make friends online who i can share with! not only is sharing a way to show respect and love for them, but others can give you ideas of devotion and connection

creation/digital

going digital is a great way to worship and connect with your deity, especially if you cannot be open about it

make a playlist - include songs that remind you of them or that you'd think they'd like that involve their domains or stories/myths

art - literally any form of art they will appreciate. music like singing or songwriting, drawing, painting, sculpture, literature like reading books they'd like or writing stories, poems, songs, etc., dancing, theater or acting, or literally anything else. you can get specific, like learning an instrument for Apollo

exploring - exploring areas you think they'd like or just new areas in general. you might find points of interest they'd enjoy (like crossroads for Hecate), or see/hear their sacred animals, or find things that coincide with their stories/attributes/symbols

spending time with them through hobbies - the best way i can describe this is through examples: going to parties/celebrating for Bacchus/Dionysus, cleaning and taking care of your home for Vesta/Hestia, gardening for Ceres/Demeter or Proserpina/Persephone, taking care of the ocean for Neptune/Poseidon, the list goes on and on. anything that involves their domain

pinterest board - kinda self explanatory, making a pinterest board (or a physical picture board/wall if you prefer) with images of your deity and their symbols/attributes. here's mine

phone background - setting your phone background as an image or your deity is not only a sign of honor and respect, but will help you develop the habit of thinking of them regularly. can also spark conversation with others without being direct about your worship!

overthinking.....

...meanwhile

the craziest thing about being alive is that you have to live with other people’s interpretations of you

what is a epiphany you had that made everything click for you?

that im different.

i used to base all of my opinions, goals and dreams on what others around me were doing but then i realised i didn’t want to do any of that, i didn’t want to be in corporate and work 9-5 jobs. i would rather spend the rest of my life relaxing, learning (not for academics) but learn to understand the world better and educate myself. i would rather spend my time traveling and embracing other people’s cultures and create, make art and design stuff

i don’t believe in hustle culture at all.

ever since i accepted myself for how different i am, things shifted. i became more calm with myself, i stopped stressing. i stopped worrying about other people’s opinions. i stopped hating myself. i understood myself better.

what is the point of the emoji spells? how can a couple of emojis on tumblr offer protection? genuinely curious!

it's a manifestation technique! similarly to moodboards, it creates a visual and affirmation for others to think about. of course, these emoji spells will only work if the intention is set and worked upon.

some witches incorporate sigils in them and leave these spells in their drafts to see if they work before posting. personally, i meditate on my emojis or play music from my manifesting playlist as i create them.

that playlist and my emoji spells have worked wonders for me ✨🤭

“Reverse” changelings are rarely addressed on tumblr, but it’s actually something that I discuss with others in the craft frequently offline. So I thought I would compile it into a comic for witchblr!

Protection Jar Recipe

Materials (not all herbs are required, but these are what I use):

A jar

Cinnamon

Rosemary

Lavender

Thyme

Salt (table salt is fine)

Bay leaf or small piece of paper

A way to seal your jar (candle wax or lid or both)

Funnel/spoon to get ingredients into the jar

Steps:

Cleanse your jar in your preferred method

If you are using a candle to seal, I carve some protection runes into the side and begin burning it as I prep the rest

Layer herbs into the jar, stating your intention for protection out loud with each one

Order of herbs I use: cinnamon, salt, rosemary, thyme, lavender

On your paper or leaf, write something like "I am protected" or draw a protection rune/sigil

Add the paper/leaf to the jar

Seal the jar with lid or cork

If adding wax, hold the candle sideways over the top of the jar to allow the wax to drip onto the lid and down the sides

With your last step, repeat your manifestation for protection one last time

You can wear the jar or place them around your home
