the best thing about vampirism is that you don't ever have to choose a meal ever again because it's all blood

pretending to be a vampire was just a joke at first but it's real now i think

typo in group chat incident one dead 8 still beating the corpse

Van Helsing has spent weeks dancing around Lucy and the Three Suitors and trying to make the proper precautions without coming out and saying IT’S A MONSTER and within 20 minutes Mina is presenting him with a neatly typed and formatted paper laying out every detail of there being a monster. No wonder he is overcome. He’s no longer the only one working on the group project.

personally, i think i should be able to evolve into a vampire with wicked bat wings

smth smth vampire and werewolf narratives are two sides of the same coin of the horrors of the gay experience smth smth its abt the shame of who you are and the grief that comes with desire

✨Witchy Uses For Tea✨

A good way to unwind and replenish your energy after a spell or ritual is to relax with some tea.

🌱TEA TYPES🌿

Green tea- fire, passion, healing, love, sexuality

Oolong tea- reflection, wisdom, concentration

Black tea- earth, water, strength, stability, energy, cleansing

White tea- happiness, wisdom, purification (compliments moon energy very well)

Rose tea: love, compassion, psychic abilities, good luck, protection

Herbal tea- very versatile; best uses depend on herbs used. Examples are peppermint, spearmint, rooibos, etc.

✨ WITCHY USES 💫

If you are performing a ritual or spell that involves sending positive energies out into the universe, steep the tea nearby while it is taking place. Drink the tea when you are done- this will allow you to replenish your energies, leaving you less drained

Brew loose tea and read the tea leaves!

Drizzle honey into the tea in sigil patterns. Stirring the tea charges it (clockwise if you are attracting something, counterclockwise if you are banishing something) and drinking it activates it!

Brew your tea with distilled drinking water that has been charged with the sun/moon to give your magic a boost!

Make your own tea blends to compliment and refine your intent

Store tea leaves/tea bags near crystal grids to charge them before brewing- the longer you charge and the stronger you brew it, the stronger the magic will be

You can add things like lemon, ginger, cinnamon, cayenne, and give your magick some oomph

You can spread tea leaves (moist, dry, used, unused, etc) as offerings, mix them into or add them on top of the soil to help plants grow (bonus if they’ve been used in healing or growth spells!), add them to melted wax for a personalized candle, etc; the possibilities are basically endless

fall is when my Rory Gilmore fashion style comes out

You’ll never change my mind.

i’m like a vampire in the way that you have to 100% confirm that it is okay for me to join into anything

there’s nothing that makes me happier than watching the leaves turn brown as fall starts

Remember when Dracula was a goofy old man who gave Jonathan an air kiss goodbye and did lizard fashion, and now he’s this faceless, eldritch horror that acts as some metaphor for the impending march of death, an illness brought in by a ship like the bubonic plague? Remember when he had three roommates he just ditched, what are they up to now???

Me, in my coffin: shit i forgot my headphones

A lot of the substances we think of as protection against the supernatural (e.g. salt, silver, garlic) are actually antibacterial, and would have helped stave off infections and illnesses that people once attributed to supernatural influence.

Based on this, I want to see a story where vampires are repelled by hand sanitizer.

you’re telling me that Lucy has a girlfriend and 3 boyfriends but she’s still going to sleep alone? Without anyone to watch her?? Lucy there are so many draculas outside

Self Love Potion💖💕

Sometimes, we get down on ourselves. It happens to most of us, and when it does it’s nice to have a pick-me up. Self-love is one of the most important kinds of love--we need to take good care of ourselves emotionally, spiritually and physically in order to live our best lives. This little potion isn’t going to cure your self esteem or image issues overnight--or at all without work on your part. But it is a good start, and can facilitate the actions you need to reach your self love goals.

Make the making of this potion a self love ritual. Dress up in one of your favorite outfits before you make it--lingerie is nice, but so is something that just makes you feel secure and comfortable, like a good pair of sweatpants, a big fluffy robe or a big t-shirt! Hell, you can even put on a big fancy dress and do a full face of makeup if you like. Or do your skincare routine. Take a good long look in the mirror and pick out something you like about yourself. Write it down somewhere you can look at it before bed. Then, go and gather the following ingredients:

Self Love Potion Ingredients

Water (moon water would be a good addition!)

Rose bud tea (beauty, love)

Strawberries (love, happiness)

Apples (beauty, love)

Peaches (youth, happiness)

Basil or Mint (healing, banishes negativity)

Honey or Agave

Making Your Self Love Potion

Heat your water. Finely chop your strawberries, apples and peaches. Allow it to boil until the fruit is soft and has infused its essence into the water. Add the rose bud tea, and mint. Remove from heat and allow everything to steep for a while. Strain the fruit, flowers and herbs from the tea and pour it into your favorite cup. Sweeten to taste if needed (you added a lot of fruit, so it might be sweet enough!). Allow your self love potion to cool. You can even serve it over ice if you like.

Find somewhere comfy to sit and drink this--preferably before your potion is ready, or at least done cooling. Light a few candles--pink and white are good color choices, in whatever scent you find comforting that makes you feel luxurious. Open a few windows if you’re able. Take your potion, sit and close your eyes. Focus on those things you like about yourself, what you envisioned what you looked in the mirror. Envision your goals and your ideal self--but be realistic about it, and be kind to yourself. Drink, and continue to envision these things as you do. Continue doing so until your drink is finished. Relax as long as you want to, and take it easy on yourself. Doing this before bed is ideal, so you can go lounge in bed right afterwards.

Be kind and gentle to yourselves. Remember that where you are now on your journey is still progress, and one day soon you’ll be where you want to be.
