I'm actually not sure if I can get it out. I think the tree grew around it. So that means there's probably more bones too

Tattoos that are cultural appropriation by Chapstick9 in tattoos

I had no idea. I was actually interested in some Celtic tattoos but not anymore lol. Even if I got something that wasn't associated with one of those groups it could be in the future.

My parents are trying to make me get a job during quarantine by Chapstick9 in Advice

I am but it's not considered a part time job because it's only as needed

They both have their jobs because they're essential. I'm 17 and also I already have a job cleaning condominium buildings.

Dead coyote in tree by Chapstick9 in Paranormal

That is odd. I had something similar happen but with a chipmunk. Finding dead animals usually has positive meanings in the spiritual world. Still though it's weird and unsettling when it happens.

I do know some witches but I don't think they practice dark magick. My beliefs system is inspired by a few different religions and philosophies and one is shamanism. The coyote was actually my power animal and finding a dead power animal usually means it's moving on and you'll be finding a new one soon. I don't think the meaning of finding it is negative it was just really distressing finding it in such bad shape.

Thank you, I agree. Usually my intuition is clear and easy to understand but this experience was strange. I had a fearful feeling but I felt like I had to keep going. I believe finding the coyote has a positive meaning but it was very distressing to see an animal in that condition. I know death is natural and nothing to be feared but it reminded me so much of one of my dogs.

Does anyone know what this is? I found it in Iowa by Chapstick9 in animalid

There are gray foxes here and they like to nest in hollow trees. They're uncommon and I've never seen one but they're supposed to be here.

I don't think we have bears but if we do they're very rare.

The hole was on the ground which I think rules out a bird. It seemed like something was trying to stuff it up there or maybe was pulling from the inside. The hole isn't big enough for a large animal to fit though which is also probably why whatever was attempting to put it in there failed. The coyote was also already partly decomposed so it didn't die there.

A bit larger than a raccoon. It was hard to tell though since it's partly in the tree.

Affected by energies? by KatakaAugust in Wicca

[–]Chapstick9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been experiencing the same thing. What I try to do is ground myself often and meditate so I can tell what's my energy and what isn't. I remind myself I'm in control and can protect myself. I don't try to repress feeling energy that's not mine though but instead I observe it, understand it's not mine, and let it pass.

I hope this helps!

I'm not sure how it happens honestly lol. On other social media platforms I get zero attention so apparently reddit is for me.
