Funny how, while completely polyamorous, I find myself having to learn to be alone again. Even with a situationship and a casual dating situation going on. I can’t decide if wanting to feel wanted constantly is a trauma response, as I don’t really worry about being left etc. I’m quite securely attached. I just, apparently, am a true attention whore for my important people. Even as an introvert lol.
Kinda weird how you say you’re against fascism yet you shut down anyone just because they share a different opinion than you. You guys are exactly what you say you hate... FASCIST! How come I have never seen any member of antifa actually sit down with someone and have a civil debate? I’ve only ever seen them yell and throw tantrums. Doesn’t look good for you guys, yikes.
Aries: Do not be dismayed to learn that you are being piloted by a small colony of rats. It will change surprisingly little about your life. What is life about if not learning to expect the unexpected.
Taurus: All the tension and stress you’ve been dealing with will finally come out in the form of mild adrenaline based superstrength that surfaces in a fit of erotic rage.
Gemini: Careful Gemini! You may be interrupted in the midst of your daily oscillation session. Don’t let it ruin your day, hold a house meeting and make sure everyone is on the same page.
Cancer: You’ve been pushing yourself pretty hard in pursuit of your goals. The stars say to allow yourself to rest. Consider spending a day collecting delicious sap.
Leo: Make sure to stretch before collapsing into a prophetic fugue state. The rapturous convulsions can cause neck/back strain. Consider a back brace or praying really really hard.
Virgo: Are you interested in things? Stuff? Today will be your lucky day Virgo! Careful not to freak out when your day is full of both things and stuff.
Libra: Consider introducing yourself to the greyish humanoid figure that always appears at a set distance from you in low light conditions. It may take an illuminated sign but socialization is important for these sorts of things.
Scorpio: Relieve stress by planning a trip that isnt a trip to a place that isnt a place. Relieve stress by conceiving of time collapsed into a single semipermeable plane of events that anchors all the things that could be.
Ophiuchus: When the stars said that pushing yourself this hard would take an emotional toll we didn’t mean it like an actual payment of currency. No it is not taxable.
Sagittarius: Careful not to blunt those sharp eyes on an unforgiving task. Passion for learning is all well and good, but you’re venturing into uncharted territory that may contain things that want your eyes.
Capricorn: Clever though you are, the stars and I recommend against making an alchemical duplicate of yourself to help with the workload. That sort of thing never goes well.
Aquarius: An upcoming social event will be so rife with intrigue it will spawn a sentient thoughtform that will slowly begin to murder people as the night progresses. Just make sure to duck out early.
Pisces: Your constant near death experiences may be putting you under some stress. Time for some light reading, or maybe some breathing exercises. Honestly the stars say you’re handling constantly being faced with your own mortality pretty well.
Baby Witch Bootcamp began as a series of informational videos on my YouTube channel. This series is my attempt to meet a need for free, accessible, and well-researched information about witchcraft and other forms of magic. My background is in journalism, and this is the approach that I take with this series – I try to be as transparent as possible about where I get my information, which means including lots of quotes and sources. I also try to keep this series as objective as possible – my goal is not to convince you to practice witchcraft a certain way, but to provide you with the tools and resources you need to create a magical practice that fits your own beliefs, values, and spiritual needs.
