mary’s song and seven are about the same person/situation, taylor said she was seven and the other person was nine, mary is the name of the girl in seven, there was a backyard tree and she dared them to kiss her and ran when they tried in mary’s song, if you want to add in inthaf and the childhood friends to marriage thing that’s applicable too...............
The state of my room is extremely important to me. It’s a direct reflection of my mental health, so when it’s messy, my energy levels are low and I just feel yucky. There’s no way I’m getting any kind of work done, magical or mundane. When it feels good and clean to be in, it’s a lot easier to deal with my symptoms and be productive. You don’t have to do every step every time of course, but each step has helped me so I figured a list like this might help someone.
Change the lighting. Use natural sources of light (like pulling back the curtains and letting the sun in) over artificial ones. If you have salt lamps to turn on, those are still very nice. If you need artificial light to keep it from being too dark, try to prioritize light bulbs you like the color of, and ones that don’t whistle quietly when they’re on.
Change the airflow. Open a window, if you can. Often our rooms feel yucky because the air is stale. Get some fresh air moving. If it’s too cold, it’s okay to only keep it open for a few minutes or put on a coat while you work because you’re stubborn like me.
Change the sound. Put on your favorite cleansing music. Let it soak into the room. I tend to go or ambient spa stuff, or playlists that sound built for a rainy day. (Note: the music that helps you cleanse the best may not be the same as what you like the most. The playlist should keep you focused/uplifted while you work and reflect the vibes you want your room to have.)
Change the smell. Take out the trash, maybe refresh the sheets on your bed. Light a scented candle, some incense, heat up some oil, something to make your room smell distinctly different from the mucky-feeling room from before. (If your method of choice is something short like a room spray, I actually like doing it at the very end.)
Actually clean and organize. Nothing junks up the energy of a room more quicker than actual junk. Organize everything as much as you can (this might mean finally gutting your closet, even if you can close the door and hide it.) Wipe down any surfaces that need it, get everything fresh and functional again. Do some laundry while you work. If you have clothes or trinkets that are just collecting dust, extra points for purging them!
Cleanse any sacred spaces by themselves. A lot of us have altars or shrines in our rooms. A sacred space can also be just an extra important area of your room, like a reading nook. Make sure to give them extra attention! You don’t need to wipe the board energetically (and probably shouldn’t), but taking a little extra time to clean surfaces, straighten up, and make sure everything feels okay on them goes a long way.
Cleanse in your regular way. Bust out the herb bundles, the bells, the ribbons, the broom, whatever you usually do to cleanse a space! The room is SUPER primed for it now, most of the negative energy probably already feels removed if not broken down. A good once-over with your favorite cleansing method should finish it off nicely.
Refresh any wards or protections. Self explanatory. If you maintain energy borders in your room, now is a good time to check in on them and zhoosh them if needed. Keep the space clean for longer!
Practice self-care. Take a shower, a nap, eat some food, whatever you need. You’ve put in a lot of work and you deserve it.

THE GERY WITCHES
San Marcos , Texas
.·:*¨༺🌛🌕🌜 ༻¨*:·.
・ ☾* ・゚✧ ────────────────
Local folklore tells a story of a mother (Genevieve Gery) and her daughter (Isabelle) living along the San Marcos River between 1682 – 1691. The Gerys were charged with blasphemy, heresy, witchcraft and consorting with the devil. The women were taken from their trial to the place of execution where they were burned and hanged ..a gruesome end. Locals have supposedly heard the wailings of a woman near the San Marcos River headwaters, the suspected location of the Gery’s ruined cabin, since the days of San Marcos de Neve (1809-1812). It is believed their remains were interred near Eddie Durham Park since many have claimed to see their ghosts wandering the area nearby. Do you dare find the Gery Witches
──────────────── ✧・゚*☾ ・
.·:*¨༺ ༻¨*:·.
Aries moon: Your emotions are more important than everyone else’s because you think your emotions are harder to bear than theirs. Super whiny about whatever’s bothering you that day. You think you’ve had it worse and you think everyone should know. Very immature about handling your emotions. You won’t listen to others emotions because you’d rather “keep to yourself.”
Taurus moon: You’re materialistic and boast about it. You always want to know other’s problems to assert to yourself that at least you aren’t dumb enough to have their problems. You think the only way to win an argument is with a manipulative ultimatum. You think everyone needs your approval to feel their emotions.
Gemini moon: You always want to know everyone’s emotions and problems because you want to see what would happen if you told everyone involved. You can’t be held responsible. You think everyone’s over-exaggerating their problems. You always wait too long to apologize. Deflecting is your motto.
Cancer moon: You’ll probably cry over this. You’re way too overemotional. You tell everyone you follow your new breathing exercise when you start to freak out and panic. You get things by making others feel guilty for you. Unhealthily possessive of people and objects, probably shown in childhood, “She can’t be your favorite, she’s already my favorite!”
Leo moon: You want everyone to pity you because you thrive on attention. Also wanting people to hate you because you thrive on attention, even if it’s negative, so you hurt them. You get upset when you walk past people and they don’t say “speak of the devil!” or start whispering and pointing. You are dramatic when you’re recounting your past problems but always make your current problems seem better because you don’t like to admit that you actually can’t do everything by yourselves.
Virgo moon: You preach communication but you always fail to actually communicate. You claim to know the best for everyone and you will blame anyone else when your plan went south. Everyone treats you as their welcome mat and you let them. You worry to the point of panic. You aren’t actually the smartest person you know even though you think you are.
Libra moon: You are the most boring person emotionally. You bottle up your emotions really well until you can’t take it and you explode. You can never tell when it’s going to happen so you spend time driving people away before it can. You think you need to interfere with everyone else’s problems. “Stick a pin in it,” is your favorite quote.
Scorpio moon: You’re sensitive but can’t deal with anyone knowing it. You can’t handle your ‘intense’ emotions. You want to be emotionally detached but you always end up oversharing. Your unhealthy coping mechanisms aren’t as cute as you think they are. Your common sense seems to stop whenever you encounter a slight problem.
Sagittarius moon: You can’t handle staying some where for too long. Your random daydreaming is annoying. You’re always clueless to other peoples emotions, stemming from the fact that you just don’t care. You get so consumed in your beliefs that you won’t listen to reason or the truth. You think you can test your limits but then you end up in bed, moping for three days.
Capricorn moon: You think your responsibility equates to your emotional maturity, but you are one of the worst at dealing with your emotions. You need efficiency and sacrifice neatness to do it. But you won’t accept anyone else’s feelings unless they’re perfect or they benefit you. You always have a hard time emotionally connecting with people.
Aquarius moon: You crave individuality so much that you’ll ruin your life with anything that makes you feel different, like drugs. You can’t emotionally connect with people because any sign that someone feels the way you do feels like a personal attack. Aloof with their emotions.
Pisces moon: You claim to have everything under control but you can’t even handle your own emotions. When people talk about needing to use baby gloves they’re talking about you. You’re judgmental about everyone else’s emotions but you always have a justification for yours.
