Hello my fellow witches! I’m sorry for the long absence, I’ve been traveling. Although now that I’m back, I feel as happy as ever! So this new post is about chants. Chants are short sentences, or chains of words, that are said repeatedly, and are considered a kind of spell. They can also be used in songs or rituals. First of all, why use chants? Because they are short, simple and easy to remember. They also vary from a person to another, which makes it a way to practice your own magic, and make it unique and specific to yourself. Second of all, how to create a chant? Inventing one is almost as easy as using another person’s. The only thing you need is for it to be short, and repetitive. For example: • The names of all the gods you worship placed in a specific order; • A phrase that calms you down repeated over and over again; • A short call to a certain god; • A virtue you want to apply more; Etc…
Here are some of the chants I use, as a Norse Pagan:
“Skadi, Freya, Eir, Idunn, Sigyn, Frigga, Sjofn, Hel, Sif, Angrboda”
“Huggin, Munnin, see and hear, whisper all in Odin’s ear”
“My sword for Tyr, my blood for Thor, my heart for Freya, my life for Odin”
“Stand strong as Yggdrasil, powerful as fire, sensitive as water, wise as earth, and free as air”
Of course, most of these are related to norse gods and beliefs, but feel free to use them and bend them to your liking. I often chant them through a melody that is specific to each and every one of them, which really helps! I hope this short post helped you all to understand how a chant works, and how to create one. Blessed be, sisters!
Below are a few protection charms for protesters. Use these in conjunction with candle spells, witch ladder chants, and as verbal components for any protective spell for protesters you like. I’ll likely be incorporating them as I start building bigger magic here. Today I protest, and I would greatly appreciate if someone said these words for me, and everyone marching in the name of justice. The Morrigan Devotee’s Blessing and Protection for Protestors takes some words from the Morrigan’s own prophecy (via Carmody’s translation) “Peace to the Heavens”.
Power and protection to those marching for a better world Power and protection from the earth to the feet that march upon it Power and protection from the winds to fill the lungs of the people Power and protection from the water to cleanse the pain from the hearts of many Power and protection from the fires that burn for justice
May the Morrigan’s shield be upon you Sky to earth May you be as an Eel in this fight Slipping from danger and out of sight
May the Morrigan’s shield be upon you Sky to earth Earth under sky May you be as a wolf in this battle That the howls of your pack’s pain drown the prattle May the Morrigan’s shield be upon you Sky to earth Earth under sky Spear upon a shield
May you be as a heifer in this war That herd becomes herd, a stampede forward, forever more May the Morrigan’s shield be upon you Sky to earth Earth under sky Spear upon a shield Shield upon a fort May you be blessed and protected three times Three times the faces of na Morrigna Three-in-one By Babd the Battle Crow, by Macha the Queen of Sovereignty, and by Nemain the Invoking Fury
May the Morrigan’s shield be upon you Sky to earth Earth under sky Spear upon a shield Shield upon a fort A fort bold and fierce
A shield. A Blessing. A protection.

Things that have been bothering me #327: how do solarpunk and lunar punk societies deal with their dead? Are the people of floating cities set adrift in the ocean? Cremation takes a lot of energy and embalming can damage the environment, and eventually we run out of space to bury people. On top of that, would they even want people being buried, away from the sun and the moon?? Or would something like sky burial or the towers of silence be more practical to them? Who tends to their dead, and what stigma does that have? What does a solar or lunar punk funeral look like? What are their mourning traditions? Are they afraid of death? THESE ARE THINGS I NEED TO KNOW
Here’s a bird in their hunter gear
i can finally post this

Studying physics is essentially being taught a simple structure, and then told ”actually, scratch that, the truth is actually far more complicated” over and over again until we reach the point where we still don’t know the truth, only that we do not have it.

If you ever feel like you must be the most unobservant person in the world, remember: I once spent half a year failing to notice that my new favourite restaurant was a money-laundering front for the Ukrainian mafia.
(I didn’t think anything of it at the time, but in retrospect, the fact that it was always dead no matter the time of day - I think the busiest I ever saw it was five people, myself included - well, that should have been a tipoff. Also, the waitstaff kept calling me “Mr. Prokopetz”, which I had assumed was just part of the restaurant’s gimmick, but given that “Prokopetz” is a Ukrainian surname, I’m now force to wonder whether they’d thought I was, you know, in the business. I just liked the pierogi!)

the hanged man - what should I hold onto and what should I let go of? how can I look at this with a new perspective? what am I willing to sacrifice? how do I let go of old habits and step out of my comfort zone?
death - how can I use recent events to transform myself? what do I need to accept the end of? what will be born from the ashes? how can I mourn the ending of one thing and celebrate the beginning of another?
temperance - what led to the feeling of harmony? what can I do to hold onto it, grow from it, and become harmoniously whole? how do I remain patient through these experiences?
