Colour- and Art magic in Rainbowmancy

Colour Magic

Colours are kind of the rainbow's thing, so it makes sense that colour magic is an important part of Rainbowmancy. There are many, many lists of colour correspondences out there, and I am of the opinion that these are more powerful if they are your own, so I won't make a list of colours here. (Although I will share if asked, of course!)

With Rainbowmancy there are two ways you use the colours of the rainbow: as a whole, and the individual colours separate from each other. I mostly use the colours of the rainbow as a whole, or in the case of queer witchery, the colour meanings of the Gilbert Baker pride flag. Some ideas on how to use colour magic will be discussed below in Rainbow Magic.

Art Magic

Humans are creative beings. Cave paintings, story telling, beaded jewellery, art has been with us since the beginning. What art is and is not is a very broad discussion that I will not go into right now (but I do have thoughts). But what about art magic? To describe art magic and all it can do would be a whole essay on it's own. But to give a short explanation I can not describe it better than Molly Roberts:

"Art magick is art as the spell- the means of expressing intentions, desires, wishes and experiences. Art magick can be a means of attracting or manifesting, but art magick can also be entirely about the process- it can be cathartic, healing, or meditative. The making of the art is the ritual itself. I’m often pointedly asked what the difference is between art magick and crafting or scrapbooking. Frankly, on the surface- there isn’t a difference. Paint is paint. An art journal is an art journal. A project becomes art magick when it the project is tended to with a devotion, given significance, and imbued with layers of meaning for the art witch. There is an animistic dimension to art magick. This layering of meaning- the act of making something special with our love and attention, the sanctification of your creating, is the essence of enchantment." Source: Molly Roberts

So what about art magic and Rainbowmancy? Well, painting, drawing, digital art, clay; these are all techniques that often use a lot of colour. Colour magic and art magic can go hand in hand in this regard, and like colour magic, you can focus on the individual colour of the rainbow, or the rainbow in its entirety. With music the diatonic scale has seven notes, which can be linked to the colours of the rainbow: C-red, D-Orange, E-Yellow, F-Green, G-Blue, A-Indigo, B-Violet. A Rainbowmancer can use these notes to create rainbow symphonies, or simply resonate each not in sequence. Dance is a wonderful art that can be adapted into art magic and rainbowmancy. Dancing with rainbow scarves, silk fans, or poi are amazing ways to get the rainbow magic to flow. And let's not forget fiber and fabric arts such as embroidery, knitting, crochet, quilting, and sewing can be used as powerful tools to embue items with rainbow energy.

this was their first time looking after nyx, the sweet little winged boy nestled in her arms. it was the first time the boy was without his parents, his little unsatisfied grunts let them know exactly how he felt about that - and he refused to be put down. so far he'd been in her arms all day, but she had noticed, she saw how azriel looked at the two of them. she knows he thinks himself too scarred, too broken to hold something so little and innocent, but he was wrong. she knew it with every fiber of her body. her head tilts and nods to the couch, beckoning him to sit down. " please come join us. " a smile as she awaits.

once he is seated, she moves to sit next to him, slowly taking one of his hands, moving his onto the little babe. both their hands joined, and suddenly the babe's noises soothes and he lets out a sleepy yawn. " all he needed was you. do you want to hold him, @witcheri ? " she offers. maybe it would be different when it was just the two of them. when their entire families weren't watching him, observing as he got used to this.

Apple

its genus is malus

planet: venus

element: water

magical properties/powers: Fruit of the gods! my mother loves it, I am neutral to it. apple has powers of love, healing, wisdom and immortality. it is a great element to use in garden magic and/or green witchery

cutting an apple in half and sharing it with your loved one is a simple but effective spell that ensures your happiness <3

medicinal use: eating apples whole (with the skin) is the best way to consume them! as much as I don’t like the skin, it contains most of the fiber and it quite an important part of the fruit

dried apples may taste better to some people but it has less nutrients and more additives (this doesn’t mean that you should eat dried apples, though!) so eating them fresh is a nice option. apples are also natural laxatives and high in vitamin C.

Idea: a Stitchwitch’s Grimoire

Okay, hear me out: have y’all seen those embroidery sampler books where the pages are fabric? Okay. So. This is a niche post, but if you like stitchcraft in your witchery, or practice mainly stitchcraft, consider: a grimoire incorporating the idea and taking it further. I’m thinking paper signatures bound alongside fabric sampler signatures. You could use weaving samples as pages, or embroider sigils on scrap fabric, and have some paper signatures attached to some fabric signatures, and the paper signatures could have pattern notes, information, etc that needs writing so you don’t have to sew all the words on. And like. You can do iron resist for writing on fabric, too! And if you dye fiber, you can use dyed stuff in there, too. You can keep pages closed with kumihimo bracelets, a friendship bracelet, an i-cord, or an inkle band. I just, idk, I think this is fun and I wanna do it but I also wanna see other people do it too!

୨୧˚♡* ♱ who are you in this haunted house story? ( the mother )

you pour everything you have left into those you love. desperately, frantically you try to fix what is broken, but the cracks spread faster than you can mend. if only you can hold everyone together, then things might just be okay! however, you only have two hands and all anyone seems to do is pull away. everyone is different now, even you, and pretending not to see it isn’t making anything better. you see the signs of things going wrong, of what is but should not be, and you try to warn them. you love with every fiber of your being, but try as you might, you cannot make them understand. they don’t listen, no one ever listens.

I started doing needlework again and made a cauldron pin cushion with fabric, felting wool, thread, rice, a sachet bag, a piece of quartz and a plastic cauldron my kids use with their dolls that they let me use if I promised to buy more when they come out in stores. 😂😍🧵🪡

I also made a mushroom-ish one that I think needs cute ribbon on it. 😂

Genshin Boys would be Horrible as Disney Princes

Headcanon and Reader Perspective, Drabble

Sojourner Special (Followers Event)

Despite being the gentleman and sweethearts that they are, in the wrong hands, of badly aligned context and universal rules these boys can barely function as princes given their own ideals.

Diluc in Cinderella

Shortest one, oops.

Our Diluc would honestly be too busy for balls if we're doing this canonically, night time of all times. He's not your prince tonight, he's off somewhere doing Knight stuff...

If by chance you did catch him in the ball and he did indulge you with your dance until you escapaded at midnight, he's not gonna question it.

And since he didn't even REMEMBER your face, the next day just goes on as usual. No decree for searching the whole land for your foot or anything, it's just a normal day after a party.

"They left without a word, no name or promise, who am I to say no when they clearly don't want to stay?"

He's a gentleman. Too gentlemanly...

Childe in Sleeping Beauty

In this scenario, Childe embraces his knight-ness more than the princely aspect. I mean sure, he danced with you in the forest all so lovingly, sang along to your pretty lil voice. But when the prophecy came, his focus changed—

To the thrill of fighting a big ass green fire breathing dragon! Big woah, Childe had soooo much fun fighting it that he didn't even cheese it.

He lived for every hour of the fight and made it as slow as possible. Taunting, playing with his PREY- mid-fight the dragon would realize just how strong and horrifying Prince Childe is, but the entertainment had started, and the dance won't end until Childe wills it.

When he DID finally slay the damned thing, he'll come up to your quarters and stare at your sleeping body, and then think "Hey, if them being put under this spell gave me the fight of the century? What if ANOTHER dragon comes? That would be amazing!" No waking up for you, or the whole city for that matter.

Albedo in Frog Princess

You... You don't even get the chance to be the frog princess in here... simply because he himself REFUSES to change back to normal. You have never met a man so intelligent, much more a frog.

"I know of which you are not, I won't be fooled by cardboard crowns and secondhand dresses," you choke as he berates every fiber of your being, "It matters not, I still have much to learn about the life of an amphibian."

He disappears after that and you've never heard from him ever again, although at the back of your mind you're pretty sure he's a live and well, that bastard is too smart to end up as roadkill.

And well, you're right, he's out there in the world of frogs doing frog things. Triumphant over frog science and the other talking creatures he may meet.

He'll also find a way to revert himself back to normal, either making his own cure or just enlisting the help of a princess to bargain.

He might come to you upon the logic of marriage counting you as princess, but don't get too hyped, you won't be treated as his wife. He'd be too busy putting his frog research into paper...

Zhongli in Beauty and the Beast

A beast he may be, he's still dignified and elegant, upholding his end of the bargain so long as the other does the same.

Your father may have trespassed and have taken some flowers in his domain but well, really it's such a petty crime that can easily be solvable. And even if there needs to be punishment incured...

When you stumble to the mansion in search of your father, ready to take his place from his jail cell, you find him and the beast (ohh half-dragon Zhongles) by an elegant table drinking cups of tea with light conversation. Huh?

"There is no need to fret, your father and I are just discussing the terms of our contract. He spoke of his woodworks that I wish to commission in exchange, such good potential should not be wasted."

You can also, well, pay off things within contract? But either way, it would be hella awakward, he won't impose on your life and most certainly not about the curse when you had so much to live for.

Kaeya in Rapunzel

Little bitch, thru and thru. If Eugene is such a criminal, he's taking it TENFOLD.

He's not even gonna be the slightest bit trustworthy for you, little Rapunzel, because he raises so many red flags your frying pan wouldn't even be enough to threaten him. He probably has a really thick skull, and your resolve won't be able to smack that pretty face.

Bargaining won't work, he'd sleight of hand his way out and get the crown knowing you'd hid it in the pot immediately, and then just backflip outta there.

If you manage to get him to get you out, he's not gonna be of help either. Kaeya would be amused with toying with you, leaving you in the dark as you get scared shitless/dance around with some tavern criminals. Otherwise, ehh...

One way or another, he's gonna find a way to get you off his case. Either forcing you to travel with companions that's headed to the city anyways or forcefully knocking you out and heaving you back to your tower.

"You have a mother that never ages lock you up in this tower? Nu uh, sweetie, I'm not dealing with the dark forces of witchery when I'm already well off with the crown."

He got the crown.

Venti in Snow White

I'm sorry what? Free apples? Eternal sleep in a beautiful bed? He's gonna be glad to just take your place. (Spoilers, he would)

He'd be most definitely entertained with your dwarves, playing his tunes. You life would be filled with his lyre as he plays around, not even caring about the other implications of yours or his status in this woodland forest.

You ran away from home? Cool, freedom, man. Wish he could the same without jeopardizing the kingdom and his family. He'd probably take the apple too just for you~

During your rest, he'll come up with the most eloquent song to play for your seven dwarves as he watches your fate sadly. How peaceful you looked, away from the world and from the grips of death.

The dwarves would force him to please try and break the spell, and he'll shrug and indulge- except it didn't break the spell, as he expected it to be. And they are clueless on who else you had encountered in your life to even spare a true love's kiss.

"How saddening, the princess lays. Maddening to those around as they'd say, if only my kiss was enough for the curse to sway." You died, ouch.

Xiao in Mulan

Brutal. Brutal. Brutal. His voicelines would come in sooooo handy here, oh my goodness.

If you miraculously bypassed his analytical gaze enough to hide your sexuality, you're going to die in his training program. He's not gonna go easy on you, not when the fate of the nation lies upon your capability to keep up. You're gonna go through far worse than what true Mulan went through, and you may or may not just die in the process.

If by chance you survived, this would warrant enough respect to not kill you (oh, you lived) but you better not show up again.

He's never gonna be delighted to see your traitorous face again, he can save China on his own, thank you very much. And you know he can. Try and approach him, and a sword would be at your neck once again.

"Foolish gremlin, you think you had the right to present yourself after the treason you willfully committed? We won't crumble at the loss of one person, your job here is done." How sad.

Cyno in Little Mermaid

First of all, wack, mermaids exist! Sadly, that's nothing new for him. He knows a lot with that intelligent mind of his, so it would be no surprise that the existence of such mythical creatures doesn't make him bat an eyelash. He's been living near water, he's not that stupid.

With that in mind, your presence in your first meeting is going to be bad. Very bad. Cyno knows about sirens and he's not at all gonna fall for it, and if by chance he had known you before the ship was wrecked, he's probably gonna be veryyy keen in capturing you instead.

So if by chance you're stupid enough to interact with him and DESIRE to be on land with him, you're gonna deal with a lot of problems.

You're not getting that kiss easily. No, it's a huge challenge. He'd be repulsed in your naivety and will most likely be more concerned on your voice than ever. He'd be so kind to try and give a shot in helping with the cure but it's not the cure you needed.

He'll drown himself in every literature in full concentration just to see if there's any text he can find about curses and muteness. His curiousity would get the best of him, and you'll barely see him after you managed to explain your predicament without the need for words. Octopus woman doesn't even need to show up to intervene.

"A kiss? Surely not, such ailment won't be cured by fairytale methods." And then he goes back to his library once again. And you will be seafoam the next sunrise. Or was it sunset?

"So now that we've established these grounds," Exiled turns to the other two in the area, "Maybe, these boys would be better off as princesses."

And so the trio concocts a new type of fairytale, collaborated to masterpieces soon after.

More Sans an the Scientific Witchery Head canons

After so long of continuing the cycle of death and reanimation, Frisk had considered putting an end to things.

Queen Toriel and her newest loyal knight Sans invited Frisk to ‘dinner’ at the castle. Oh, it was a dinner, but it was very obviously a trap. The Queen was not present at the table, having royal business to do elsewhere in the kingdom, leaving Frisk alone with Sans.

Frisk brought with her a bottle of poison that would work on monsters with the intention of contaminating his drink with it. Sans also intended to do the same with hers, but unlike him, she was entirely aware of this.

They would die together. And she was oddly okay with this outcome - it was better than being forced to watch Toriel corrupt him further or live in a world without him, she thought.

However, she couldn’t go through with it. Her heart just wouldn’t allow her to. It was selfish and wrong - she could kill her lover for the good of others and his own, but not for something so selfish as having him to herself in death.

Simultaneously, Sans was facing a similar dilemma.

He couldn’t bring himself to kill the witch, even at the request of His Lady. Even as he hovered over her cup of wine, bottle of poison in hand, every single fiber of his SOUL screamed that it was wrong and begged him to reconsider.

Sans may have been twisted by Toriel, but he was still a skeleton that listened to his SOUL. So for now, for as long as the Queen left them be, the witch was safe.

They ended up having a quiet, but tense dinner alone together.

Long after Frisk has left, long after the evening had turned to late night, Sans was still burdened by the familiar but foreign pangs in his SOUL as he thought of the witch he had allowed to slip through his phalanges once more.
