Stellar Magic: A Practical Guide to Rites of the Moon, Planets, Stars and Constellations by Payam Nabarz

In Stellar Magic Dr Nabarz provides both the reader and the practitioner with an invaluable book filled with the rich lore of stars and a series of stunning and powerful rituals to enable a deeper awareness of the effect these have on our daily lives. Drawing on rare and out of the way materials Dr Nabarz has assembled a veritable treasure house of wisdom and lore. This is an absolute must for anyone even remotely interested in Star Lore and for any practicing magician or seeker after truth.

I wish people wouldn’t make posts about how to deal with tear gas/protests unless they actually know what they’re talking about. 

I am a trained street medic and I’ve personally been tear gassed more times than I can count.

- Do not use soda or water to wash tear gas out of your eyes. Use a combination of liquid maalox and water, 50:50. That’s what works. 

- They can literally tear gas you anywhere you stand in relation to the police because riot cops have gas masks. I’ve been tear gassed within five feet of the front line of police. They do not care. 

- Before my very first protest I asked my friend who’d been doing this for over 5 years if I should soak my bandana in vinegar. She laughed and said, “I have no idea who started that rumor but it’s never done shit for me or anyone I’ve ever known.”

- If you are bulimic or have chronic vomiting, please keep in mind that the mucus membrane in your throat is a precious tender baby and you will be much more effected by tear gas than everyone around you and you will feel it in your throat for weeks afterwards and NO ONE EVER WARNS YOU ABOUT THIS.

- The police probably won’t zip tie you with your hands in front, they pretty much know how easy it is to break out of those.

- People with asthma should always carry their inhalers because that shit is real bad when you get sprayed with tear gas. 

- Never go to a protest alone. Always have a buddy there and always let someone who isn’t going know where you are, your legal name, and your birthday so if you get snatched they can check the jails and the online database for you. (note: this does not work when they grab hundreds of people at once or sometimes they just never put your name in the database yay!)

Seriously y'all, this is not the time for posturing. If you don’t know something, ask a street medic or google it. 

This is a decidedly unfriendly reminder that I don’t want you following me or liking/reblogging my posts if you are a Trump supporter, neo-Confederate, TERF, neo-Nazi, or a supporter of any other sort of white supremacist or fascist movement. Get the fuck out. I don’t want you here.

oh my god

I’m not sure if this graphic would be helpful to any other beginner witches, but personally I wanted to make it to clear up some things to myself. NOTE: This is how /I/ understand the topic. For more witchy art, go here.

dear pagan tumblr:

PRACTICE SAYING THE FOLLOWING THINGS:

“oh! i didn’t know that. thank you for telling me this new information.”

“you’re right, i’m sorry for appropriating this custom.”

“i understand that you disagree on how-to-x, but we practice different traditions, so the way you do x and the way i do x are different.”

“i don’t understand this, could you try to explain further/explain it in more simple terms?”

“hey tumblr, is x okay for me to do according to this tradition, or would it be inappropriate?”

“even though i learned x originally, i see what you’re saying about how it’s problematic, and i’ll try to change accordingly.”

let people with mental illnesses and personality disorders fall in love. let them love people more than they love themselves. let them stay alive because someone else keeps them content enough to stay. let them fall in love with celebrities and fictional characters. let them fear and cry over “little things”. let them dissociate. let them obssess. let them lack empathy. let them be selective about how they emote. let them have their own definition of love that’s real to them. there is no right or wrong way.
