“The time of hot chocolaty mornings and toasty marshmallow evenings.”

Hi friends,
I woke up this morning with a mere 4 dollars in my bank account. I got hit with all my bills at once and have more bills starting next week. I’m currently in between jobs, I’ve been doing food delivery when I can but, due to me being disabled that’s not too often.
I’m not a person to ask for “handouts” but now is one of those moment where I unfortunately need to. Last month I couldn’t make rent, and if I’m late another month I could be looking at eviction. The last few months have been difficult to work due to my pain, so money has been extremely tight, but I never thought I’d be here.
If you would like to help it’s greatly appreciated, even just reblogging this to others is also greatly appreciated. I have a few ways to help if you would like:
Cashapp: $smallplum
Venmo: @small-plum
Etsy Shop:
I may also end up opening art commissions in a way to help earn money, so if you’re interested in that let me know! Check out my art instagram @/artbysmallplum (without slash) to see my work!
Thank you if you took the time to read this and interact with it 💛
Reblog if you support squishy bellies, have a squishy belly, or have the desire to summon satan

i hope i am not just a mutual to you guys but an online persona you’re both in love with and a little suspicious of

Hello, baby witch here,
I’ve been doing witchcraft for about 4 or so years, i’m still very much learning and have taken breaks here and there from my craft. I still have a ton of questions and lots of research to do.There is something though I’m just generally curious about and feel often.
Sometimes while doing spell work I can feel a presence, usually, behind me. This presence doesn’t feel threatening or anything, just kinda like their watching, which can definitely make me nervous to mess up.
I’m just curious if anyone else has ever felt this or may know what this presence may possibly be. Is there something I should be doing to protect myself? Should I be worried or is this something good? Would love to hear what others think!
There are so many types of magick and along with them, so many types of witches! Learning from other witches is a wonderful way to make friends and immerse yourself into witch craft.
Sadly though, things get mixed up or lost in translation, so I asked some of my witchy friends to help me come up with some misconceptions about magick and witchcraft. Feel free to add anything!
Witches don't worship the devil. In fact, most witches have no involvement with the biblical devil. (a lot of witches don't even believe in the biblical devil tbh) That being said, there are certainly some witches who do.
Witches are not evil. Some of the nicest people I've ever met are witches. Even before I started practicing, most of the witches I met were sweethearts. That being said, witches are still human so there are 100% some mean witches out there. Steer clear of them, we do not claim them.
Witches are not inherently wiccan. Wicca is a religion started by Gerald Gardner in the 1900s. The religion has branched off and created different types of Wicca since it's creation.
Witches aren't strictly female. Without going too deep down the rabbit hole of gender, just know that male and nonbinary witches exist and are just as magickal as female witches.
Not all witches deal with spirits/ghosts/other worldly beings. You don't need to deal with any other worldly existence to be a witch. If you just want to use earthly items like herbs and stones and never touch spirit work then that is totally fine.
Not every witch follows the wheel of the year. That is a neopagan creation, melding Celtic and Anglo-Saxon holidays. There is no right or wrong to this fact. So long as you're honoring these holidays by learning their origins you are doing great.
You don't have to sell your soul to be a witch. That's it, that's the end of the fact.
You don't need every single item in a spell book to make a spell happen. I am a college student so obviously I don't have the money to buy every herb and rock I want. (though that'd be nice) But the idea that you need all of these things to create magick is wrong. Ultimately it is your willpower and intent that will create magick.
Smudging is not smoke cleansing. Smudging is a specific ritual used in some Native American cultures. Smoke cleansing is using a bundle of herbs or even an incense to create some smoke and use that to cleanse an area, person, or object.
Magick isn't free, in the sense that spells don't suddenly make things appear or make things be how you want them to be. If you don't put any work into whatever it is that you've done a spell for then it's not going to manifest.
Your practice will be different from others and that's ok. Witchcraft is a very personal thing. You're more than welcome to learn from other witches and teach other witches but just know that it's ok if people practice differently from you.
Pop culture magick isn't "fake magick". This one is more of an opinion but I think ragging on pop culture magick is distasteful. Magick now, even if you try your best to be as close to ancient rituals and magick as possible, is different than how it used to be. Magick evolves with magick users.
That's all that I can think of right off the top of my head, but feel free to add to this! If you would like clarification on any of these let me know either by replying to this or sending me an ask.
Have a wonderful day!
