Snow is quite unusual in London. You can feel the novelty of it, the way it transforms the city – not just the landscape, blanketed in a cloying whiteness which dusts eaves, softens edges and powders windowsills, but also the people, who go with a temporary estrangement from the monotonous grey. Everyone walks more slowly, and strangers smile at me as they pass, our eyes meet and crinkle knowing the shared secret inner joy of this interruption to our day to day. Or maybe they think I look funny in my huge coat, hat and gloves
in my eyes, any type of self care is witchcraft. taking a shower? a literal and metaphorical cleansing ritual. making food? kitchen witchcraft, obviously. drawing? it’s like a really complex sigil thats purpose is to calm you down and clear your mind. making tea? potions. lying in bed all day binging your favourite show on netflix? a day of recharging your soul. don’t ever feel guilty for not doing complex spells all the time. you’re a witch - everything you do is inherently witchy.

i would fuck it up to be a child on a quest to protect a beautiful blue pendant my mother gave to me and meet a charismatic, brave, good hearted young boy with a dream to find a mysterious legend running from pirates who eventually become enamored with our innocent and childlike wonder and faith in the universe and decide to help us protect the ethereal and cruel yet also tragically beautiful magic that connects it with an island suspended in the sky from this dude who's like my cousin or something, he sounds a lot like luke sky walker actually-
