#witch’s burr
Text
My last post summarized what sweet gum balls, aka witch’s burrs were, and this post is about turning them into spells! In my hand, from bottom to top, is my protection burr, money burr, spirit offering burr, and love burr. My favorite methods of using these are burning them to release the spell and placing them on your altar or in your bag/purse, but get creative! Recipes are below:
Protection Burr
-A Protection Oil
-Black Salt
-Black Wax
Money Burr
-A Money Oil
-Alfalfa
-Dill
-Cinquefoil
-Green wax
Spirit Offering Burr
-An Offering or Spirit Oil
-Heather
-Sandalwood
-Purple Wax
Love Burr
-A Love Oil
-Roses
-*Lavender (for lesbian love)
-*Safflower (for gay love)
*Both lavender and safflower can also be used for attracting multiple genders, not just for what is stated, such as men, women, and nonbinary or trans partners if you do not identify as straight.

finally watched blair witch 2016. i didn't care for it tbh. the characters weren't violently annoying (apart from mr and mrs confederate flag) but they didn't really stand out either. bit dull all round. got very bored in the last 15 mins. rather silly ending. blair witch's little crafty stick men are still very cute however
#blair witch 2016#horror film#it wasn't great#but it wasn't the worst i've seen by far!!#and the characters didn't make me want to tear my ears off#all in all it was a perfectly tolerable way to block out my father's listening to bill burr or something#the blair witch may be scary but her craftsmanship is admirable#i like the stone towers and hanging stick men#very cute#quite cottagecore#the blair witch project

hey do you have these spiky guys lying around in your neighborhood?
they’re called sweet gum tree balls ((or witches burrs)) and they fall off of sweetgum trees that are native to eastern north america, the eastern mediterranean, and east/southeast asia!
these little guys can be used for witchcraft purposes in case you haven’t already guessed. they’re good for banishing negative energy, protection, making wards. etc. so next time you see some lying around outside grab em and use them in your practice!

🌙Simple Everyday Things You Can Do For Protection
Source | https://www.instagram.com/mariathearcane/
What are some simple things that you do that you think would help another witch?
🌙My list of daily or easy practices requires little to no prep-work
•Use a protection plant ally like a witch's burr, cloves, thorns, motherwort, black pepper, garlic, or onion. Close your eyes and place your plant ally in your hands. Ask the spirit of the plant if they will offer you protection to see you through the day. Carry it with you.
•Alternatively, you can also use crystals. My go to combo is black tourmaline and red jasper!
•Use a protection archetype tarot card like the Nine of Wands. Nine of Wands, for myself, symbolizes boundaries and protection when it comes to our growth/life path. Place it on your altar with intention since it is a portal to our intentions, our guides, and the liminal, or carry on your person.
•Smoke cleanse the thresholds in your home, yourself, and your loved ones. I personally like rosemary and lavender for this purpose.
•As you leave an offering for your guides/ancestors/deities during your daily conversation with them ask them for their help when it comes to protection.
•Write the word protection or a symbol of protection on a black candle with intention and light.

Sweet gum balls, also known as witch’s burrs, are used in many folk practices and hoodoo, but are not exclusive to these. They can be used in protection spells and are placed upon altars or carried on your person for that purpose as well. They’re said to be able to ward off the evil eye and can bring wealth and abundance to an individual. They are said to attract good spirits and dispel negativity, but they can be used to cast curses as well, in tune with their spiny nature. Some people stuff spell ingredients inside them and burn them as a spell itself!

Request! Rise Donnie x reader that is smarter than him and teases him about it and he's furious about having a crush on them being 100% oblivious that reader already knows and feels the same way. From Donnie's POV. PLEASE and thank you!
I’ve been dreaming of a— HMMMMMM????
Request, you say????
“Anonymous asked: Request! Rise Donnie x reader that is smarter than him and teases him about it and he's furious about having a crush on them being 100% oblivious that reader already knows and feels the same way. From Donnie's POV. PLEASE and thank you!”
A/N: unfortunately, I can’t see any way that this would go well... If any writer wants to take this prompt and make a fluff version of this, have at thee! But I can only imagine this going one way….
-
Smarter. (A Oneshot) - Donatello x Reader
Warnings: Spoilers for Witch Town & Mind Meld, angst, hurt no comfort, Y/n misreads his feelings, Donnie is a protective father.
-
The science guy.
That was me.
I “dealt” with things. The “Bill Nye” comments, the teasing, the bantering, the loneliness, the hours of work into every, single, little project I made. I’ve hacked into every camera in NYC. I’ve created sentient machines, reprogrammed a useless movie vehicle to be the best in the world, I would say. Made bombs, robbed and reverse robbed banks, created rockets, bombs, ingenious battle devices, tech-bo, for christs sake! And so! Many! More! But…
Then, there was you.
Perfect, in absolutely every way. Mystic, science, physics, hell — you even beat me in banter, leaving me speechless nearly every time. And you rubbed it in my face. You were the Hamilton to my Aaron Burr. It didn’t help that you checked off all my boxes, Cute and mean, that was my type, and I wanted to bond with you, a fellow scientist who I didn’t have to dumb down my talk for, someone I could be myself around! but you… you made yourself impossible to tolerate. I admit I didn’t take it well, when I realized…
You were everything I wanted to be.
“Awww, is this Shelldon?” You scratched behind one of his many ears, making him trill in delight. “Ahhahawww thanks, dude! Yeah that’a me.” He responded, leaning into your touch. “He’s cute! What coolant do you take, buddy?” You asked, talking down to him like a child, the exact way Sheldon had always reprimanded me for.
“Donnie’s experimenting with different types,” Yes I am, “He’s trying Castrol Radicool Premix right now, it’s been doing good so far.” Thank you.
As expected, you inhale sharply through your teeth, making my attention pique from what I was trying to distract myself with. “Donnie really doesn’t take care of you, huh?”
…
What?
Me?
I don’t take care of Shelldon?
“Uhhh… I don’t know if that’s—“ I can’t bring myself to let him finish, already standing from my gaming chair. I turned on my heel, fury in my eyes as I rolled the seat out of the way, “Excuse me?”
You chuckled, and felt my blood boil, “Awh, Donnie, you’re blushing! Embarrassed?”
“Infuriated.” I answered.
“Oh come off it, I simply think you should try Ethylene Glycol, it would be so much better for winter.” I grit my teeth, every word from your sicky-sweet voice made my skin crawl. I would have attacked you right then and there if I didn’t know you had better tech. Hah, better tech… better than me? ME of all people? No.
I furrow my brows, “That was next on my list..” I seethe, feeling my nerves spike as you poked my shoulder. I hated when you did that, it made my face go red and my palms sweat. Curse this irony, it was like smiling at a joke from a person you’re mad at. It’s frustrating, but involuntary.
“C’mon, we both know you’re not really mad, you’re just frustrated cuz you like me. Look at that blushing nose~!” I felt my voice catch in my throat as you leaned into my face, wanting nothing more than to push you away already. My body was experiencing a freeze response, and I couldn’t even bring myself to push you, it was as if my bones were made of high-grade titanium, the same as my tech.
I clenched my fists, feeling a bit of my confidence return as Shelldon flew to my side. “I thought I was supposed to be the narcissist…” I hissed, feeling my face redden with anger. I’ve never hated anyone more.
Your face turns confused, but I can’t bring myself to realize you might have misunderstood my feelings, “You think you’re so great, don’t you?” Shelldon cowers, I know he hates when I raise my voice, so I lower to a furious whisper, “You think you can just waltz into my lab, my life, and tell me how to run things?” My nails dig into my palm, I resist the urge to threaten you, knowing your body would never be found beneath my hands.
“You think you’re the science guy, don’t you? Think you can correct everything I’ve worked so hard to achieve and just take my place!?” Make me worthless? Be the purple sibling? What next, re-wiring my systems? Taking scraps and making a dark matter accelerator? Drawing on eyebrows to a cheap version of my bandana!?
Your eyebrows knit, “woah, woah, Dondon, I didn’t mean—“ “Don’t fucking call me that!!” I seethe, feeling tears prick at my eyes, I hate how emotional I am when I’m angry, but I’m too deep in now. Some weak, soft shelled part of my heart is telling me to apologize, but I’ve always, always acted with my head. It’s telling me you’re a threat. And you are… aren’t you?
“I’m not a child!” I can feel my heartbeat, eyes wide and I take a deep breath to lower my voice. “And Y’know what, I think I finally found something I’m better at.” I fold my arms, watching a frown finally form on your face.
“Really?” You glared, matching my stiff body language.
“Yeah.” I huff, “Reading the room.”
“You? Read a room?” You scoffed, seeming just as offended, but I didn’t mind. “Ever think maybe, I did all these things — not to take your place, but to impress you?”
“Oh, you made an impression. Alright.” You… wanted to impress me? I turned my back to you, a small voice telling me that maybe, just maybe, I.. wasn’t acting with my head.. “A bad one.” Why am I so defensive? Why did all this get to me? Shelldon was uncomfortable, I was uncomfortable, hell, I bet my brothers could hear this! They’re probably uncomfortable! why couldn’t I be the bigger turtle and just move on?
“Just… leave..” I waved at the air, sinking into my seat with a little regret. Why was it, that around you, I was never enough? That I was just the small, weak soft shell who couldn’t play rough with his brothers? Who broke his glasses? Who practically wore a pillowcase for protection?
Why couldn’t I be cool for you? Why was I talked down to? I’ve accomplished so many things, why is it that nobody can ever look at me in awe!? Why am I always admiring someone else, and never being admired?
“…” the tension in the room began to dissipate, and I listened with baited breath as you closed the curtain behind you. I let out the sigh, and I hear Shelldon round the corner, landing his head on mine, “Well, that could’ve gone better…” he muttered, and I feel something strange as I look down at my workbench— grief? Guilt? Whatever it is, it stuck, no matter how badly I didn’t want to admit it.
“Yeah..” I mutter, twirling my screwdriver, “Yeah it could’ve.”
—
A/N: I feel like this might be a lil OOC, am I the only one who gets that vibe?? Idk I’m not really feeling this one, lmk what you guys think 😭 I guarantee another writer could best me at this prompt, and I offer it up to anyone interested! Hope this was ok, anon, really hope I didn’t wreck your day.

The Mystery of John Burr the Chestnut Man
The Land of Oz is a series with many an obscure characters - most people could probably tell you about Dorothy, the Tin-Man, the Lion, and the Scarecrow, but how many know of Ozma? Or Tik-Tok? What of Professor H.M. Wogglebug T.E.? And that's just scratching the surface, considering there are so many books (around 40 considered "Canonical"), and then beyond that there are characters who pop up in works connected to Oz... and then there's the case of John Burr the Chestnut Man. Who the Hell is he?
Well, first, some context:
In the year 1900, L. Frank Baum published The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, complete with illustrations from W.W. Denslow. Due to their collaborative efforts on the book, it was agreed that both men should have the rights to the characters and various elements within the first book. This arrangement may sound a bit unusual, but really it should be fine as long as Denslow and Baum don't have some sort of falling out.
Guess what happened in 1902 while they were working on the Wizard of Oz Stage Musical?
So, Denslow and Baum went their separate ways, with Baum going on to write "The Marvelous Land of Oz", while Denslow continued illustrating for books such as "The Pearl and the Pumpkin". He also worked on a small book called "Denslow's Scarecrow and the Tin-Man", featuring a short story about the duo getting into some hijinx after deciding they were tired of working endlessly on the Wizard of Oz stage show - I'm sure he wasn't working through anything there.
Around the time Marvelous Land got published, he also worked on a newspaper series called "Queer Visitors from the Marvelous Land of Oz" which served both to promote the sequel and increase the reach of the Oz brand. It's also one of the few remaining artefacts of a time when Baum really wanted Professor Wogglebug to be the mascot of the Oz series, but that's a discussion for another time.
Denslow sees this and thinks "Well, I'll show him! I'll make my own newspaper series!" and so we got Denslow’s Scarecrow and the Tin-Man (yes he used the same name as he did for the book - he also split that book into two halves and published them in the newspaper series, so that’s confusing). Unlike Baum's strip, this series mainly stuck to the events of the 1902 stage musical, so Dorothy never left Oz and is also referred to as Dorothy Gale (a name Baum wouldn't use in prose until Ozma of Oz) or Dotty (her show-exclusive nickname). The first story also makes reference to a Good Witch covering the poppy field with snow, which didn't happen in the book but did happen in the musical. Other than this though, they keep references deliberately vague - no mention is made of King Pastoria II, Cynthia Synch, or Dorothy’s pet cow, Imogene (who replaces Toto in the stage musical - similarly, this series makes no reference to Toto). It’s interesting to see an Oz-related work be influenced by a very popular adaptation other than the MGM movie.
Okay, but who is John Burr the Chestnut Man?
John Burr is introduced in the second story in the Scarecrow and Tin-Man series, and immediately he raises questions. Apparently, he's the Fairy Godfather of the Scarecrow (which possibly links him to the Scarecrow's 1902 musical origin wherein he comes to life because Dorothy wished for a friend, but this isn't made explicit) and possibly the Tin-Man. It's not clear. The Scarecrow and the Tin-Man are joined at the hip for most of this series though, so it hardly matters. In his first appearance, he transports the Scarecrow, Tin-Man, and the Cowardly Lion down to Earth, making him one of the most powerful characters in the series at this point.
Later in the series, he hands the Scarecrow and the Tin-Man "Magic Passes" because nobody will tell these poor guys how money works, so they just keep stealing things (relatedly, the Scarecrow and the Tin-Man book I mentioned earlier where they're performing in the musical mentions that the two just aren't paid for their work... again, I'm sure Denslow wasn't working through anything there)... and that's it. That's all we know of him. He enters the narrative, fulfils this oddly powerful role for someone who isn't even hinted at in anything prior and is then forgotten about entirely.
Also, he sells chestnuts, that's why he's the chestnut man.
[Honestly, the funniest thing about this whole situation to me is that Denslow's Scarecrow and the Tin-Man series is just significantly better than Queer Visitors from the Marvelous Land of Oz - better art and the writing is just very charming - both are probably equally racist though, so be warned if you want to seek these out].

Could we possibly get more Faust (lords of chaos) with a Goth GF, there is no where near enough fics of him let alone any of him with a goth gf.
Faust - Gothic girlfriend Part.2
warning : fluff
masterlist
Info : You are totally right dear anon having a goth gf is something that needs to be done more. So here you go and have fun reading everyone else too.
Disclaimer : I don't want to glorify anything, it's about the actors who play a role, not the real events.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
°A few months had passed since Faust had met his gothic girlfriend. Moante in dennen die verbindung de rbeiden only more grew and strengthened.
°For every time he saw her in the moonlight, elegantly pulling on her cigarette in the corner or just giving him a particularly elegant pretty look, he felt his heart beat faster. He reached for a small card and wrote a poem.
°A poem that expressed his admiration and love for her every time. He felt like a little boy when he handed it to her. How her eyes showed knowledge and love, the little smile on her black lips when she kissed the card and pulled him to her.
°,,My sweet bat" she called him most of the time when she put her hand around his arm and they walked around together like an old married couple. He was her guard and protected her from everything. But she needed no protection. Not since he knew that she had a knife in her pencil.
°The blade was wide and extra on Samahein or Hallowween on the thirty-first of October she made a ritual for the band. Sacrificed a chicken that the boys had stolen for her. As she saw in the circle of chalk, the flames of the candles flickered and the chicken disappeared when the candles lit again.
°,,My girlfriend the witch!" the brown-haired man had announced and pulled her into his arms while the rest cheered her on. But their ritual was effective, any danger for the band was averted and the love of the two seemed to grow even more.
°At the latest, they found a small apartment together near Faust's mother, who surprisingly liked his girlfriend. The older woman and the younger one both found pleasure not only in smoking but also in card reading. A friendship that quickly made his witch a member of the family.
°,,Honey, bring your Addams family with you," Faust's mother had once joked, and he saw the smirk on his friend's face. Which told him that she also felt comfortable, which was important to him. He himself knew what it was like to be excluded before he met the black coven.
°But then the day came, the day that put them both to the test. Faust and his friend became parents. Parents of two little black cats. Adam and Eve. Two cats that they had rescued from the shelter. They looked at their parents with their green eyes.
°Of course, this had to be celebrated with a housewarming party in the apartment and the black coven was also there. The interior of the two was dark fist plates hung on the walls and he had brought his room into the apartment.
°His girlfriend had brought her own things. Statues, pentagrams and a considerably large figure of Satan that served as a cat tree.
°It was an apartment that the two of them filled with dark love and made it a dark kingdom. It was perfect for both of them. As well as the cats that got all the attention of their parents. But they also supported their mother and father in painting.
°The witch took up the painting with oil trying to capture her dark world in her mind and Faust took the black charcoal and drew and painted his victims. His fantasies he had and together they spent so many afternoons.
°Until the day she was born. Her birthday was coming up and the gift he gave her could not have made her happier. ,,So you can try it out," he said, revealing to her the black sag he had built himself.
°It can be said that after all the guests had left, the coffin was tested in more than one way, but that passed in the dark night between Faust and his girlfriend.

The Great Aquarius Spell of 2024
Are you the kind of person who wants to make a real change in the world? Are you the kind of person who thinks BIG? Who is disappointed in the status quo? Do you want to see a better world for all people?
Then this is the spell for you.
And no, this isn't exactly a spell tutorial. Let's call it a spell invitation. A cosmic chance to supercharge your magic.
Why now?
This month (January 2024) has two days that strongly highlight Aquarius and Uranus energy. For those in the know, the sign of Aquarius and Uranus, its planetary ruler, are the rebels, the rulebreakers, the big thinkers, and the revolutionists of the astrological zodiac.
I want to list for you a couple of famous Aquariuses throughout history for a moment so might get an idea of what I mean here: Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Edison, Ferdinand Magellan, Fredrick Douglas, Charles Darwin, Galileo Galilei, Yoko One, Charles Lindbergh, Aaron Burr, Bob Marley, Kim Jong-Il, Rosa Parks, and Grigori Rasputin.
One thing that can be said for the Aquarius spirit is that it rarely leads to a milk toast personality. From great revolutionaries to despots to peace activists, Aquarius is THE sign of political change, the kind of change that ripples through history.
Circle these two days on your calendar:
On Saturday, 1/20, the Sun and Pluto meet up in conjunction and move in lockstep with one another into the sign of Aquarius.
One week later, on 1/27, Uranus stations direct.
These are the kind of days when change happens. But we witches don't just let change happen, we MAKE change happen. This is the best aligned chance to enact real and lasting change - the kind of change that the above listed Aquariuses made - for quite some time.
We just need to use it.
As stated above, I am not going to outline an exact ritual or spell for you here because this spell needs to come from you. It should, in some way, reflect the change that YOU want to see in the world.
But I will give you some places to start.
A General Spell Framework
There are three major players in these powerhouse days. 1/20 involves the Sun, Uranus, and Pluto and 1/27 involves Uranus. As outer planets, Uranus and Pluto are considered beyond human influence and most astrologers believe that they cannot be petitioned in the same way that the seven planetary powers can. The Sun, on the other hand, can be. Create an altar to the Sun. Moreover, create an altar to the Sun in the sign of Aquarius. Aquarius is our fixed air sign so elements of air can be added to your altar. Additionally, you could include photos of famous Aquarius changemakers that you particularly admire or even non-Aquarius changemakers who worked with the particular cause you are championing.
The Sun supports life itself, Uranus and Pluto are our planets of change, and Aquarius supports community of all kinds. Intentions around the world as one community will be highly effective during this time. If you are struggling for an intention, something like "Everybody deserves more love, not less" is a reasonable place to start.
Think big. The sky is the limit here. This isn't a day for magic to fix your own life - this is a day for magic to fix the world. Do you want to stop climate instability? End homelessness? Redress great injustices?
The symbols for the Sun, Uranus, Pluto, and Aquarius may prove useful in your spellwork. You can carve them onto candles or onto petition papers.
If you work with tarot in your spellwork, there are a few cards that can be worked with to enact great changes. The one that comes to mind immediately is the Death Card because what greater change exists than to exit this life for the next? The death cards can be directed to remove anything from a situation through a metaphorical "killing" of it. And then, of course, we have the Tower - the OG card connected to the energy of Uranus. The Tower is associated with dramatic and unthinkable change (as the card depicts) but it has a deeper esoteric association with the changing of belief systems, like the sign of Aquarius! And then we have Judgment which can serve the purpose of bringing about consequences to those that need to face their actions.
Alternatively, if you work with runes, both the Dagaz and the Tiwaz runes can be used to enact change (Dagaz, as a brand new day and a brand new chance) and Tiwaz (to enact divine justice). The rune Halagaz can also be used similarly to the Tower card to bring down systems and enact the change of inevitability. Though I find the energy of Hagalaz to be similar to that of the Tower, I favor the rune in this case as it implies the inevitable rebirth at the end of the change: when the ice melts, new things will grow again.
That said, as always, your magic needs to work for you.
Do you like my work? You can support me by tipping me on Kofi or becoming a monthly supporter.
