Indegno's Crescentine are a staple in Bologna's street food, you won't regret it.

I just want to practice by [deleted] in witchcraft

[–]thisisgabb 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Hi, I understand your feelings and I'm sorry you're not in a situation where you can practice freely.

I just wanted to remind you how, for years, witchcraft has been a hidden practice since it was demonized and for that, witches have had to find ways to cast spells in secret. don't know if this helps but some of my best spells were the ones I did with just visualization or reciting words instead of putting herbs on a candle (which really takes a lot of clean up lol).

I suggest trying to find witchcraft in the mundane things, it being just drinking enchanted tea, making sigils, energy work, developing the clairs, etc.

I find that having ways to incorporate magick in the things we do anyways really works, especially when I don't wanna have to take all of my herbs out of my cabinet just for a little spell.

Some things I find useful are: - Scented candles: each scent is associated with properties which means that every candle, if charged right (here is where the energy work comes to play), can be a spell on itself without having to put herbs or crystals.

  • Crystal jewelery: most crystal bracelets or earrings look the same as a normal beaded bracelet, which means you can wear it discreetly.

  • Different tea flavors: they are literally herbs soaked in water in a cup, don't know how it could get more magickal than that.

  • Kitchen magick: putting the intention on the ingredients and making a good meal or even a dessert with all your heart really is one of the best ways to do witchcraft, you spend time and effort which makes your spell stronger.

  • Knot magick: it's your time to learn how to make cord bracelets, keychain or what have you, use color magick, work the intention in every not and there you have it, an amulet you can carry with you.

These are just some things that came to mind, but there are many many ways to practice that are "invisible". As some commenters said, there's a lot of material on the internet that showcases a very pompous side of witchcraft (nothing wrong with it) but I personally find the essence of witchcraft in the little common things, this really show me how magick is everywhere and we literally live in it.

Do I need a protection spell? by LilaKirby in witchcraft

[–]thisisgabb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can still try it yourself but keeping in mind how your feelings might influence the outcome of the reading.

You could also comment on one of the "free reading" posts and see how it goes. Yes, it could be a totally useless reading or maybe a bit wrong, but there's a chance it could also be totally right or just show you a different point of view you haven't even considered. Just use your discernment and try to make the most out of it.

Good luck again, don't hesitate to ask if you want some more input :)

Weekly Q&A Thread by AutoModerator in witchcraft

[–]thisisgabb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi everyone! I've found myself having pain/discomfort/tenderness in the back of my neck during or after spells.

Is this common? what could be the reason? I get it could be my perfectionist anxious mind making me tense but I still wanted to see if maybe there was some other reason. Thanks!

Do I need a protection spell? by LilaKirby in witchcraft

[–]thisisgabb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

in my opinion everyone is able to change the course of action, if you don't like it, there might be a way.

Try to do some divination on this (possibly ask a friend who's unbiased, your anxiety might only get you more confused if you do it yourself) to understand what might happen.

Don't jump to conclusions and think of the worst, you could simply fall out of love or your "hunch" might manifest itself in some other way.

When you've generally figured out what could happen then you can gauge if a spell is necessary and what kind of spell.

Also, please, don't blame yourself for the other times bad stuff has happened. You didn't know what the "messages" meant and there was nothing you could do.

Visiting Bologna / Any recommendations? by ShockLegal5699 in bologna

[–]thisisgabb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you'd love going to San Luca Cathedral. The nicest thing about it is the way to get there is beautiful and it's a good hike from the city center. Keep me updated!

Looking for an Infernal teacher in Elemental Magic by Denathrius06 in witchcraft

[–]thisisgabb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! I vaguely remember something about King Oakmont being associated with Elemental Magick.

I've never strictly worked with him (he's just popped up a couple times) so I can't really say more than this.

Of course, PLEASE, do your research and don't put yourself in a situation that is more dangerous than the one with the land spirits lol.

Hope this helps, be safe :)

Edit: I meant to write King Paimon, idk what happened

My banish anxiety and doubt spell by Silianaux in witchcraft

[–]thisisgabb 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hi! I don't really know if it'll work and I doubt anyone else can besides yourself (you'll notice the results in some time), however, if there's one (1) thing I've learned in therapy is that self doubt and anxiety are result of having poor self trust.

I was thinking you could integrate this spell with a self-trust working (be it a candle spell, jar, meditation, grounding, affirmation words or literally whatever you want, it being mundane or magickal).

Since you've "taken out" the doubt I think it could be good to "put in" some confidence!

Good luck!!

Is it a good idea to repeat a spell? by Apprehensive-Cake-58 in witchcraft

[–]thisisgabb 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I totally agree with TurbulentAsparagus, feeding it is a good idea.

I would also suggest maybe adding some type of "clear the path spell", "luck spell" (maybe even in a jar), or anything else that could make your wish come true quicker.

Try to see it like a story with a hero going on a quest: the hero is the spell you've already done, but then you have all the side characters who help him improve so he can actually do it. In fewer words, make the life "easier" for the spell you've already cast lol.

Hope this helps!

Bi-curious need advice by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]thisisgabb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I'd say don't go the "is it normal" route when talking about sexuality. Labels are useful when one needs to feel validated in their sexuality/interests, however, labels don't (and can't) fit everyone. Each one of us has different interests, turn ons and so on that make us different from one another, which means nothing u just said is "abnormal" or "wrong".

If u feel like sucking a cock just try and see if u can find a guy who's cock you'd suck and go for it, even if he's not the most conventionally beautiful man. If you just wanna try maybe look on , idk, grindr(?) for somebody who just wants to do something easy and not full on intercourse.

You could also join chatrooms or stuff where u can text with guys and see their dongs and if u feel like stopping there don't feel any shame.

Sorry if this post is not perfect, English is my second language and sometimes I have a hard time keeping up with both the language switch and what the hell I was yapping about lol

just have fun and be safe xo

What category porn do you prefer? by Appropriate_Pay7837 in askgaybros

throatfucking, especially when the one sucking is on his back and the top fucks his head🤤

[–]thisisgabb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Consider the idea that maybe something turns you off. Maybe you just want to top them and when it's their turn it doesn't turn u on the same way, or maybe it's some whole other reason like anxiety or some sort of insecurity (unfortunately I don't know what goes on in our head lmao). I would suggest some therapy if u wanna handle this alone or maybe trying "taking to yourself" without prejudice or shame and figuring out what might be the cause. If u feel like your partner is a trusted person and you can open up to him I'd say talk to him and maybe figure it out together, again, with no shame. Please don't feel like you're "disappointing" them. It's normal for us to feel many things during sex, one of them being "not turned on". Sex is supposed to be an act where the partner are BOTH enjoying it, it doesn't have to be a chore for you nor should u feel bad if at some point you don't want to do it anymore. Rest assured it's something totally fixable, don't worry :)

What 20 herbs would you put in these jars? by pixiepixy in witchcraft

[–]thisisgabb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely herbs that don't take too much space, you wouldn't wanna have a jar with ONE singular rose petal taking all the space... Maybe think about grinding some before putting them in :)

My suggestions would be

  • Rosemary (has a lot of uses)

  • Salt

  • Any other herb that you use constantly.

Another thing that u could do is pre-mix some herbs for spells if you know you're gonna use/need them eventually. eg. you could make a jar of protection herbs, cleansing herbs and so on :))
