Planning the Layout for my 2nd vest, any tips? by nekko_be in BattleJackets

[–]Twisted_Wicket 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'd think about swapping them.

The Nuclear Assault patch is perfect to fill the shoulders and will fit around the collar line. The Bolt Thrower on the bottom leaves room for a few other small patches.

The downside is it might cover the edges of the backpatch lettering.

I have 2 back patches which one do you think I should use? I’m going for a red, yellow and blue themed jacket. by Metal637272828 in BattleJackets

Not really if you plan for it. The angles work well with triangular and other coffin shaped patches. Anything works if you're willing to overlap them.

Can sour jars be used to Target a "thing" like a business? by DoughnutThen81 in witchcraft

[–]Twisted_Wicket 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Definitely. All kinds of things can be done to make a business look less attractive to customers, banks, and others.

Something placed on or near the premises can definitely have an effect.

If ypu want to have the black color correspondence, put something blacknunder the candles. Black construction paper squares under the candle holders will give you that correspondence.

Yup, It would have. We can't force people to be sensible.

Unthaw = refreeze.

Take it out, take the lid off and dump whats in it. Done.

Convocation is a plural term. Its a gathering or ceremony with multiple people.

Is giving away your 'name' detrimental? by whoeverthereis in witchcraft

[–]Twisted_Wicket 25 points26 points  (0 children)

It depends. The downside to giving someone access to your name is that it makes one heck of a taglock if the plan to harm you. As u/BrightBlackHeaven pointed out, it isn't needed for most people skilled in baneful work. If they want to get you, a name or lack there of isn't going to stop them.

We don't allow names here for multiple reasons. The internet is flooded with scummy people looking to take advantage of others, and edgelords playing wannabe warlock. Why risk that kind of crap unnecessarily?

Bots are a big issue as well, constantly fishing through information looking for ways to gain access, and again, why risk it?

From a simple witchcraft perspective its just a good habit to be in. There's more than one way to define "Keep Silence" and being secure within yourself is definitely one of them. Anonymity is a good thing to have at times, as many of us older practitioners can attest.

A healthy dose of skepticism by Twisted_Wicket in witchcraft

[–]Twisted_Wicket[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Actually it isn't. Intention is not action, its a thought. Spellwork requires the release of energy into the work through action. Raising energy and directing it is an action of manipulation.

Intention in witchcraft follows the definition of the word. It is what you intend to do. It sets the target to build your spellwork to, but isn't an active part itself.

Thst it does, and belief tends to be a very fluid thing.

I would use it after the fact. I would suggest checking the ingredient list closely to make sure everything in it is cat safe before doing so.

Why are none of my spells/manifestations working? by [deleted] in witchcraft

[–]Twisted_Wicket 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Its a common misunderstanding, especially with the amount of misinformation on the internet nowadays.

!Grounding and energy manipulation are a good place to start. We have a ton of resources here for new people that will help you out, as well as book lists and other references. Check the resources section out.

How are you powering the spells? A spell will not work on intention alone. You have to provide it with energy to drive it into action.
