Signal Boosting For My Partner

Signal boosting for my partner ♡

Anyone around NW Connecticut? or SW Massachusetts? or over into NY Hudson / Hudson Valley area?

I was thinking this morning about loneliness, particularly how for those of us into witchcraft and the occult. It can be hard to find people to talk to about this weird stuff. Back in Chicago my partner and I would go to open conversation nights at the Occult Bookstore. I miss having something like that.

Anyway, if anyone out there is around the region and looking for witchy friends, send me a message. Maybe we could get a discussion group going around here.

It’s my birthday! To celebrate my 32nd solar return, I thought I’d share a little bit about myself!

Regardless if you keep reading, I wanted to thank everyone who has supported this blog so far by liking and sharing my posts! Y’all have helped make my return to Tumblr truly special and I hope I can continue to share content that inspires others to embrace a softer side of magical work. ☆

I’m Lachan (they/them), a visual artist, ritualist, and real-life non-binary magical girl! After being a city kid for a little over a decade, I’m now living in the country with my partner, our two cats, and some fish! We have a lot of work to do on our old house but she’s already come leaps and bounds since we moved in last summer.

Among my various interests, I enjoy shōjo manga and other cutesy/kitschy things and certainly take inspiration from mahō shōjo works in my personal magia. While I use ‘kid’ freely to describe myself, I am not an age regressor; I have no delusions regarding my age and I fully, wholeheartedly accept my adulthood but at the same time I have an ageless view of myself. Whether this is a product of memories of a life before birth or approaching life with a ‘beginner’s mind’ (or something else entirely), I find it prudent to mention as to not give anyone the wrong impression.

Unlike a lot of practitioners I have recently met in the magical hero community, I’m not a fictionkin or a reality shifter. I have characters that I definitely relate to and I have had life experiences that bear striking resemblance to their stories but as the Dimension Witch from xxxHOLiC says, “There is no such thing as coincidence. There is only hituzen.” I cannot confirm or deny the possibility that there are other realities—the only thing I do know is my own experience.
