You could do the opposite of the common Freezer Spell and, instead of stopping someone from messing with you, make something enjoyable last longer?

I'm currently very fixated on the idea of doing some sort of kitchen witchcraft with homemade popsicles - to the point where I went ahead and ordered some popsicle molds - but I'm not actually sure yet what I want to accomplish with them. Perhaps just experimenting with storing kitchen spells for later, in general?

“Inseminary”

or “Lockpick to the Priesthood” or “Come Unto Me” or “Pearl Necklace of Great Price” or “Faith is Like a Little Seed”

Authentic stolen holy text, Near Clear silicone, gold pigment.

I went to the mormon church’s website, looked up their views on homosexuality, noted the scriptures they referenced, ripped them by hand out of the bible and book of mormon I stole from their chapel, and then mixed them into a silicone dildo of my own design like confetti. A dildo which will of course be used for homosexual purposes.

I’ve wanted to try dildo making for literally over a decade. I don’t have any fancy equipment like a 3D printer or a vacuum chamber, I made the sculpt by hand, and I fucked up a lot along the way, but all that being said I’m proud of what I was able to accomplish and I learned a lot. I put in more gold than I meant to, but honestly, it was meant to represent scripture’s gilded edges, and as it turned out, it looks really beautiful or quite filthy depending on the lighting, which feels entirely appropriate for scripture.

It was hard to read all of those verses. But as I tore them up I bathed them in the intention to take words that were meant to inflict queer pain wherever they go, and say “Actually, I pull those words out when I want some queer pleasure.” Build joy where they want you to have it the least.

I'm not Christian but I really appreciate the sentiment and structure of the Serenity Prayer, so I decided to create a divination spread based on it. (I only have access to my Tarot deck atm but this should work with whatever.)

The prayer goes something like:

Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, The courage to change the things I can, And the wisdom to know the difference.

OK, I can get at least six cards out of that:

____1️⃣ ____2️⃣ 4️⃣3️⃣ 5️⃣6️⃣

to know the difference between two sets of things, I have to know how they relate, what I'm comparing — the overall topic of the reading

the wisdom — a deeper insight into this subject

the things I cannot change — the battles not to choose, pretty self-explanatory

the serenity to accept it — understanding my place in that situation allows me to develop a (healthy) coping mechanism

the things I can change — toxic positivity aside, there's always something I can do to influence (my) reality

the courage, which is easier to muster when there's a trusty plan of action — where to get inspiration or assistance, how the problem needs to be addressed, what to expect when it's resolved, etc
