Religious Daemon Headcanons Pt 1

✨ How To Wake Witchblr ✨

We’ve all seen the hashtag #wakingwitchblr or the term itself at one point. Still, I found that there’s a lack of info on what you can actually do to make witchblr more active. 

So I took it upon myself to create a list of things that anyone can do to revive our amazing community! Enjoy !

1) Don’t Like, Reblog instead 📣

There’s nothing inherently wrong with liking a post, it’s just that due to how Tumblr works, liking a post does virtually nothing. Reblogging, however, lets that post be seen by more and more people. The surefire way to revive witchblr is by reblogging as many witchy posts as you can. 

But what if some posts just doesn’t fit into your blog’s theme, even though you want to support it? Well, you have a couple options:

Reblog anyway. Diversifying your posts actually makes your blog more interesting. You can always tag it as ‘off-topic’ if the different theme bothers you that much.

Create a reblog/spam account! I have one and it is so simple. The post may not gain as much traction compared to if you RB-ed in your main blog, but trust me when I say a single reblog goes a long way.

Share it on other social media. See that arrow-like button down there? Click it and you can share the post anywhere. Send it to your witchy discord servers or your insta groupchat !

 2) Get off the ‘Top’ page. Go to ‘Recent’ 💌

AKA reblog from lesser-known bloggers.

Not only will you support fellow witches creating content, this also give you a chance to talk to them and find your place within Witchblr! Which brings me to my next point…

3) Interact with The Community 💬

If I’m a witch who wants to move away from Tumblr, there will be only one thing that can stop me, and that’s the friends and connections that I’ve made here.

Join online covens and discord servers, ask your witchstagram and witchtok friends for their tumblr url, and just have fun together. 

Interacting with other witches, making friends, even just giving compliments or advices. This is what makes us a community. It’s what makes us stay here. If we don’t interact with each other, than we’re just a bunch of people who likes the same thing without any connection. That’s not witchblr.

4) Diversify Your Tags 🎪

There is a kind of… exclusivity, when you look through the hashtags of witchy posts. Witches only ever tag with “witchblr”, “witchcraft”, and “magick”.

This creates an accurate, non-spammy post, but it is also a post that will only show up on other witches’ dashboard and no one else’s. The community will never grow in this way because there will be no new people finding the community. It’s just an echo chamber.

Instead, diversify your tags. I’m not telling you to tag your ritual oil with ‘cars for sale’, but if you made a travel altar yourself, there’s nothing wrong in tagging it #crafting, #diy, #handmade, etc. 

Non-witches will then find the post and potentially become interested in the community, thus making it grow.

5) Make Original Content 🔮

Original content is the backbone of any community, and witchblr is dying because we’re not producing any. So if you want to revive witchblr, make content of your own.

No, it doesn’t have to be well thought-out. Heck, it doesn’t even have to be good. Original content can be anything! It can be you posting about a witchy thing that happened. It can be your drawing, or a picture you took. It could even be memes???

Or it could be a ‘how to wake witchblr’ post that you wrote because you have a script due 3 weeks ago and somehow this is your idea of procrastination

The point is: just click that ‘Make a Post’ button, and make a freaking post !

6) Share This, and Add Your Own Tips! 🖤

Now that you know these, it’s time to let other people know too ! I put a lot of thoughts into this post, but I have to admit that these tips will only work if everyone in the community is doing it. 

If you have other tips or ways to make Witchblr more active, feel free to reblog with your own addition too.

I love this community, and if you’re reading this post I’m sure you do as well. It’s not gonna happen overnight, but I know that we can be as active as we used to be. We’ve got the heart, we just need the action.

Do you have any tips or tricks or advice in general on how to be more in touch with your Daemon?

~❀~

Hello again flower anon! I had never really thought about it before, but here are some that come to mind. Always make time to have a real conversation with your dæmon at least once a day. I know it can get busy but its important not just to chat a little but to really talk to one another. Also try to do something fun with just your dæmon that they will enjoy so you can spend alone time together. Maybe not every day, but at least once a week. Lastly, try and touch them. I figure most people touch their dæmons pretty frequently but I still think its important to stroke their head or play with their ears and such in a way they will find comforting (you probably will too!). 

I hope these help, does anyone else on here have some tips? 

Hello! I’m hoping your blog is still active, I’m assuming that’s what the little green dot means :) I’m reeeeaaally new at dæmonism, like I’ve been doing it for a few days, and I was wondering what weight projection feels like? Coz I’m projecting my dæmon as being sat on my leg and I can actually feel a weird tingly weighty feeling on my leg where I’m projecting her and idk if I’m doing it right. I don’t actually know if I’m doing any of this right 😂 thanks for reading this, if you do :) x

Hi! Welcome to daemonism and the community ^^

That’s a really interesting question, actually- I haven’t really thought about it before. Most of Splash’s (my daemon’s) forms are either very small (rhino beetle, horsefly, chickadee) or very large (coyote, bison, python), so the “weight” of them varies widely.

For really small forms I can kind of describe it as that feeling you get when you’re sure there’s a bug on you, but there actually isn’t. Kind of a “I’m not touching you!” sensation? “Tingly weighty feeling” actually describes it pretty well. And honestly for the rest of them it just takes a little extra “immersion” (for lack of better word) to project weight. To use the example of one of our comfort forms (Indian rock python):

(Big Snek)

Back to the “I’m not touching you” feeling, put your hand flat out on a table or something and pretend there’s a heavy cube or ball holding it down. If you respect the rule of the fake cube and accept that you can’t move your hand, your hand starts feeling a little heavier. In this “cuddling with Big Snek” diagram, Splash is on top of me, and while I could technically get up because he’s not corporeal, I’m not going to unless he moves. So by default of him being in that space and me accepting being “pinned,” it’s kind of like tricking my body into thinking something is there weighing me down, and I feel heavier where I’m projecting him. The idea that he takes up space is important- there’s gotta be room for him.

It’s all kind of conceptual and I’m not sure that ANY of this makes sense to anyone reading my ramblings (I get very long winded and I apologize), feel free to let me know if that’s the case and I’ll try again! TL;DR I think it sounds like you’re projecting weight perfectly fine, and this is basically just how I got to a point where it feels easier and more natural. If you find that you have forms that your daemon takes frequently, do a quick google to see how the size and weight of that animal is, relative to a human! It’s super easy and very helpful, though of course you don’t have to strictly abide by reality with this sort of thing.

Anyways I hope literally any of this helped, again if it doesn’t make sense I’m happy to clarify, and I’m always happy to try and answer any other questions ^^

Possible Signs of Mental Illness/Neurodivergence in a World With Dæmons

a dæmon that’s always asleep

a human and their dæmon always needing to touch somehow, even if it’s not convenient

a human and their dæmon that never touch, unless they absolutely have to

a dæmon that never speaks, even to their partner

conversely, a dæmon that never stops speaking

a human and their dæmon constantly fighting

a dæmon that can’t ever sit still

a dæmon that just can’t muster the energy to move 

a dæmon that keeps hurting their human (and vice versa), even when they don’t mean to

a dæmon that’s always criticizing their partner

a dæmon that constantly switches spontaneously between hyperactive and lethargic

a dæmon that’s always hiding, even when they’re around people they trust

can i just point out how much i love the fact that wolfgang and will - the only two in the cluster to have explicitly told whispers to his face that they will fucking kill him - are actually the ones that kill him? Poetic Justice, Motherfucker

Duh... I made a wallpaper of Kleytos and me and... We really like it. (The first one is the original).

i love women

Daemonism things...

Not knowing what to say when someone asks about your form related jewellery.

Being careful not to answer "too fast" if asked what animal you would be.

That split second where you and your daemon are disagreeing over what to do next.

Knowing the whole journey of trying to work out if you are settled enough as a person yet to find a settled form.
