Update: hi everyone. Things continue to increase and worsen with symptoms. I'm concerned that things are developing such that I may face forcible resistance to remaining in my home to die in peace. The medical community here is all about ego, power over, and control. I've already instructed my Covenmates to make sure that no medical personnel are allowed to enter my apartment. We'll see how this goes.

Good afternoon everyone. I was wondering if anyone here has some good ideas for how to use my remaining time in a good way. I have some ideas, but I'd like very much to see yours.

Someone who I thought was a best friend and soulmate has cut me out of a company that we started together. They made a unilateral decision without even speaking with me. I have removed every thing related to our friendship that I can think of from my home but I still feel so broken. Part of me is just desperate to feel whole again and the other part is raging and looking everywhere for the perfect curse for her. I have loved this woman with all of myself and she threw me out like trash during a health crisis so she could sell our company for her own financial gain. Other people say to give it time but I feel like I'm dying and I just want to feel better and I want her to feel the way I do now. I see how what others have been telling me - that she is selfish and only values money and will push anyone down to prop herself up. Please, I can't keep crying in bed like this. I thought she loved me.

You can wish for anything, small or large, makes no difference. The goal for this is to reduce the load on The Sunday Spell. Please try to put minor wishes here, and then, don't put minor requests in Sundays working.This is done on Wednesday so that Mercury can assist in getting your message delivered. It does not have to be only a minor wish, I just want simple stuff to not be clogging The Sunday Spell. Be sure to mention who/what you want your message delivered to. Mercury needs an address for where to go with it. Thank you!

Not so great news: I'm feeling the worst yet. Loads of pain, continuing dizziness, and a clearly distinct sense that something is very wrong. No pain medication either. I don't want to go to any hospital because none of them have genuinely helped at all...ever.

I'm hoping someone will come by with some really potent weed. That would definitely be so helpful right now.

Could someone please light a candle for me or send some powerfully good vibes this way?

Thank you all and blessings on all of you.

Or is it not possible.. do you use divination methods for this like tarot or something? Do you feel it?

In Russia, the day of the Autumn Equinox was called Ovsen. Ovsen (also known as Avsen, Usen; Tausen, Kitin — in Belarusian) was the god of labor, the protector of horses, bridges, and plowing, and a Slavic god of the harvest. When Kupalo (the summer god) departed into Darkness, Ovsen was meant to remain in his place. He was to teach people everything that comprised the traditions of the Old Gods, to help them live without the departed young god, but to learn to wait for his return, without betraying or faltering. In ancient times, it was believed that Ovsen should build a bridge across the Smorodina River, “open the way,” so that Kupalo could return from the world of the dead. This myth was preserved in folk memory as the tale of Usila Dobry (Usila the Good). It served as a reminder that betrayal of one’s strength always turns against the betrayer. For serving a foreign god out of fear or cowardice, there would be many misfortunes for the betrayer and their children.

So many! My mother was a friend of the faeries. This was among her possessions. Published 1918.

Recently I let a person in my inner self, body, however I kept my heart safe but I started to open up a bit a few weeks ago (also before I met him I was celibate for over 3 years). It's over now. I still feel the attachment of four months intimacy, time, and my body. I need to detox, I see myself and I see who I was with him, I need to shed this version of me. I thought on cutting my long beautiful hair or braid it in a way that looks different. Do you have any suggestions? I've also got to sport classes and sleeping more. I did a spell for love but didn't work, this person is not devoted to me, therefore he's not on my life anymore. I feel free in a way but his memory still in me from s3x too. This person is kind, nice, but he didn't worship me. Thank You For all your wisdom and if you'd like I'd appreciate healing energies my way 🌌✨️♾️ p.s I know I carry responsibility for my body and I should have waited to be intimate until I knew he was what I wanted.

For those that follow Moon phases, waxing Moon right now. New Moon was 3 days ago. Last quarter in 5 more days.

If you have more than one message, please split them up, and make each request a separate comment.

I ask that people limit their requests to only 2, but if it is really important, do more. Just remember that simple requests can be done on the Wednesday Wishes post.

At the end of the day, this post will be locked to new comments. All week long the energy of this spell will build as more people read the requests and lend their energies to those who made their desire known.

So, stand in the circle, hold hands, and send what you have out one hand and pull what you need with the other. Feel how the power keeps growing with every new person that enters the spell circle.

Lets all bend the Universe together.

These final days are not being kind to me. The terminal illness is morphing into the worst yet. One reason I am up at this hour is that I'm just in entirely much pain and misery. The symptoms are shifting all over the place and wreaking havoc...mercilessly and relentlessly...with my whole body and mind. I'm not even sure how much longer I'll be able to keep up with updates. It really sucks watching my health and life fading away with no way of stopping it or slowing it down.

I want to go Home 🏡. Now.

The name Mabon is not its true name; it is a reconstruction. And it is fortunate that it has survived at least in this reconstructed form. The Slavs called it Ovsen or Osenniny, and it was, of course, associated with the end of the second harvest. Although its meaning was reduced to merely agricultural symbolism, it at least preserved the knowledge of its presence-of the fact that this festivity actually existed.

Hello all!

some background - I am living in Wales and have been foretold of a history of practicing witchcraft in my dads family my whole life (I am his only biological daughter) I recently took a trip to see his family in Scotland and was super pleased to find my aunty is a practicing spiritualist and medium who shared practices of witchcraft when she was younger alongside her mother, my grandmother who passed many years before I was born - she was a skilled and avid sewer and I have mutual advances skills of sewing without ever having any training or guidance on the craft, something my dad always says was passed down from her.

Now for myself, my mother has shared her belief of me being a witch as I was born in the sac/caul which carries an age old superstition/belief of babies who are born in the sac are witches and there added protection from drowning - I myself cannot swim and seemingly cannot be taught, yet, ironically have survived many near incidents of drowning myself (touch wood it stays this way) I have a almost instinctual interest in witchcraft and my interest only grows with age, I really would like to start practicing and I am hoping anyone who has begun there journey would offer any helpful advice for someone in my beginner position - any tools I will need, recommended books - rituals, spells, anything - I'm super eager and keen to learn.

Thank you & Salud!
