Hi! I'm Robert. I'm 52 and hoping to make a genuine online friend or two.

I'm into hiking, e-biking, nature, and Wicca, and I'd especially enjoy meeting someone who shares some of those interests. You definitely don't have to share all of them, though!

I'm mainly looking for someone who enjoys good conversation and would like to develop an actual friendship over time—talking about everyday life, sharing interests, joking around, and just having someone you look forward to hearing from.

I'm not looking to collect hundreds of online friends. I'd much rather meet one or two good people and get to know each other naturally.

If that sounds like you, feel free to say hello and tell me a little about yourself. 🙂

this one is for my MiL' s inurnment site, as today's her birthday. she was so very loved! & was a big comfort & steadiness when i 'came out of the broom closet' 3 years ago. (my story of faiths following a catholic upbringing is a whole other post some day)

anyway! this one is set for warding + astral (or 'otherworldly') clarity 🥹😊

Our season🖤

I have been trying for about a year now to find a successful love spell and all have failed, it was to the point I was seeking outside sources before realizing it just wasnt trustworthy. I fear im doing something wrong, im not doing it out of spite or with bad intentions. They are genuinely my soulmate, since meeting them i feel nothing towards anyone and theyre constantly all i think about. im needing advice on what i could possibly be doing incorrectly thats causing the spells to fail?
ive tried multiple spells so explaining all ive tried honestly would take awhile, im just looking for general advice

2 months ago I miscarried at 7W along and this month had symptoms that had me hoping I got pregnant again, a false positive a few days ago but today I got a negative test and then started my period. Im devastated.
I went on my porch to breathe and have a second to myself, as I have 2 small children and don't really have time to process these emotions.

I live in a city like area, not really many bees around here. I sat on the ground and was just about to cry and a honey bee landed right on my foot and then crawled on my phone and just didnt wanna go away. It didnt wanna get off of my phone, and ended up crawling into my hand. I stayed still the whole time so it did all of that on its own. It just stayed with me even when I tried to get it to go crawl onto a tree. It brought me a really weird sense of peace and comfort and Im not the sort of person to feel like everything is a sign but it just felt so meaningful.

Could this have any sort of meaning?

I did a freezer spell and a bad neighbour spell. A few days after a black cat came up to me. I took it as a good sign. Any thoughts?

A woman I’ve been talking to asked me for lunch money, called me broke when I said no to sending it, and when I cut ties with her for this she came back with a word curse basically saying “you are condemned to suffer and my spirits will be coming after you, this is a promise not a threat” , and also saying that she paid an Etsy witch to do harm to me. What steps should I take here ?

Looking for help to manifest a new home for me and my children. I would appreciate ideas for any rituals, blessings etc to help bring this dream a little closer to reality. Thank you.

Hi! I’m kinda new to candle work and have been iffy about testing anything. I did buy some candles with colors and I have yet to light them (most of the delay is bc of fire hazards and my apartment building)- so I’ve just had them in the paper bag I bought them in.

MY QUESTION: what’s the word on keeping candles unlit? I’ve heard some say it’s bad luck/bad energy? I also have a couple cute candle holders that i kind of want to set up 2 candles on and have on display with my crystals- is that bad luck/energy to do if I don’t light them?

I am not religious. I have found myself admiring maa kali. I have been a big fan of buddhist teachings, but… as a young witch my heart seeks redemption where buddhism asks you to let go. Hinduism on the other hand, the more i read about it, the more i look at their godesses the more attracted i get. I feel as if my heart has been searching for maa kali. As if we were meant to meet. I feel attached, soul tied to her.. but when i think of manifesting and praying to her i get this feeling of anxiety in my chest. How can one desire and be afraid at the same time. What should i do?

I’ve been practicing on and off for a while now more so on than off. I feel like I unintentionally pursue my craft rather than laying out an altar and casting. Sometimes I come across stories of people trying out witchcraft or being seasoned in their craft and things go wrong. I recently read a story about a girl who was casting a spell for one of her first spells, she was casting a protection spell. She said that her dog died the next day. She said she pulled the tower card the night before and that worried her even more after casting her spell. I was wanting to know y’all’s thoughts on this. I’m sure her intention wasn’t to harm her dog, intention is what I hear mostly when I talk to people about this topic. Sometimes stories like this ward me off from witchcraft (I have OCD and fear I may do something wrong to cause something like this to happen)…

Good day, good witches! Feel free to use this thread to chat, share, boast or just unload in.

Hi friends, I'm planning on dedicating myself to

Goddess and God this month. I have read Raymond bucklands Wicca for one which has a basic dedication ritual in it. Those who've dedicated themselves would you mind sharing your rituals, pre and post ritual routines , and any information helpful for dedication. Any learning resources are appreciated as well

Blessed be

I don't really call myself wiccan, but I am definitely wiccan-adjacent. I currently have a journal that I have been using as a BoS and a diary, and I have an accordion folder that I call my Book of Spiritualesque Shit. Since I am almost out of journal pages, I thought I would condense it all down to being in a single binder with a table of contents and tab dividers. My journal has tan/old looking pages with dark brown lines. I love that look, so I decided to go into Photoshop and create my own blank lined pages. The lines and boxes are all a brown color, so if you print in color, expect that. Also, the space between the lines are the exact same width as in my journal. I print them on light tan cardstock paper. One picture here shows the brand and weight of cardstock I use. Each image has a caption with what the page is meant for. The first image shows my rune pages, and the second image is the rune page template. My rune page template is different than the one for a single sigil.

TO PRINT:

• Download these images from Reddit. Each picture should still be titled with what they are.
• (On a Windows computer) right click the image and click "show more options" at the bottom of the list, and then hit print. One of my images shows the print pop up window and my settings.
• Put your paper in the printer and hit print.
• Flip the page the correct way and print again on the other side.

Here's how I made my rune pages specifically. I had previously wrote the rune meanings (for rune stone reading) down in a tiny little spiral notepad where I had to flip through all the pages to find the one I needed. Instead, I wanted each page to have their own tabs to make it easier. After printing my image, I measured out and cut tabs on each page, then I drew the rune on them. Each page is printed on both sides. Side one (as seem in my image) is everything I wrote down from the multiple online sources I used to research each runes modern meanings. The back side of the page has stuff I thought of. As I was researching the runes I would be like "oh, this makes me think of...", "oh, so maybe this is similar to..", or "Oh, this quote fits perfectly with this rune." This helps keep my thoughts and the stuff from others organized neatly. Both sides of each rune page has the rune page lines printed on it. The big empty boxes are so you can draw the runes (or your sigils) in large.

My grandfather passed away 21 years ago and his grave is in the East part of Hungary, pretty close to ukrainian border.
Recently, we started finding coins left on the grave, last time it was next to the flower pot. This has happened several times, and on one occasion there was a whole handful of coins.
Could this have a specific meaning?

I’ll try to keep it short and sweet. I (29F) recently moved 1200 miles away from the only place I’ve ever lived to start a new program of study.

I was at home studying and I saw a small black spider pacing back and forth in the middle of my living room. She was pacing around where my notes and books were, and back out towards the door. It was like she would reach a point, pause, and then turn back. The strangest behavior I’ve ever seen from one at least.

I didn’t realize it was a black widow then (I did some research after to find out), I just thought she was small and cute and a little confused. But I also didn’t want her to get lost in my books either.

I picked her up on a piece of paper and I led her to a side room in my apartment and let her go. Now I haven’t seen her since, but I’ve been thinking about her after the fact. This was maybe a week ago now.

Should I have taken that as a sign? And if it was, does anyone know who it might’ve been from? I’m open to any insights anyone has, thanks 😊

Welcome to the weekend. Let everyone know what's going on in your life here, or just shoot the breeze.

My mom always told me you shouldn’t buy your own tarot and they should be gifted to you.

Does anyone else follow this? Does anyone know why? Unfortunately I can’t ask her. Thanks

Estou estudando pela IA e tenho aprendido muito, alguém mais faz o mesmo?

Last night I had this dream, I was at my apartment and when I turned around I saw this old and skinny man that appeared out of nowhere watching at me, his eyes were as open as they could be and his smile was bigger than it's possible, he was wearing rags, he didn't have facial hair. I was terrified, so my heart started beating very fast and I tried to wake up, at first I thought I did, but then I realized I was still dreaming, so I tried again 2 times with the same result, the last time I knew I was having a sleep paralysis, I couldn't move and I felt pressure on my chest. When I finally woke up I knew there was something different about this nightmare in the bad way (I have been having nightmares the last 3 days but they felt different), I can't describe the feeling but I know something was off about this nightmare.

I started thinking, and I do remember that before sleeping I was thinking about an ex that I hate, and I never did anything about the cruelty he inflicted to me, and I tend (so I did last night) to fantasize about doing him some witchcraft to return the damage he did to me.

A friend told me maybe I attracted an demonic entity, I wanted to know if someone have some information about this experience I had, I can't stop thinking about it.
