Day 32 <3

🎀✨Day 32: I made my own subliminal. I think this will help me be more specific with my manifesting. I put in music I like, videos I like, and affirmations specific to me! ⏱💣I realize now that I have the necessary tools to cosplay cat girl Homura, which I have a new appreciation for after reading the meow quest. 💐☕I found out that when trying to astral project or reality shift, there's a period where you are tested to see how persistent you are, and if you are, you are able to successfully astral project or reality shift. That lines up with how I astral projected before, so I will not give up until I contract! 🎧🌊I figured out some things I can do in the journal, but most of them are for after I contract. There are some I can do now however, so I'll show you when I do some! 🍎📿I'm working on a magiazine with some others from Mahou Planet! It's a magazine with the topic of magical girls! Some members from Mahou Planet will be featured as guest writers, artists, and some will be interviewed to learn all about their magical experience. We're planning on making it for summer 2024.

Day 33 <3

🎀✨Day 33: I tried to astral project to make my contract, and I zoned out so much I was unaware, but then I zoned back in, and I was able to continue like normal! I almost astral projected too, but my meditation turned off on accident, so that threw me off a little. I just noticed I have 100 followers now, so thank you all very much for following me! ^_^ ⏱💣I feel a very strange, very strong connection to Sayaka Miki for some reason. I don't understand why. I don't feel like I am Sayaka or anything, I feel like I'm supposed to do something for or with her. It's hard to explain. Maybe the summer heat is getting to me. Update: I think it was just the heat. I don't feel it anymore. 💐☕I'm going to reality shift as a bit of a break from astral projecting because I haven't even tried shifting in who knows how long, so I'm going to mess around and have fun in other realities for a while. 🎧🌊I've been drawing a bit for the magiazine. It's only sketches for now, but it's a lot more drawing than I've done in a while. Sometimes it feels like a drawing just isn't working, but since it's a sketch, the important part is to properly convey what I meant to, so I guess I'll need to push through for now. 🍎📿I'm still going to be astral projecting every day or every other day. The first time I tried, I fell asleep. The second time, I was interrupted. And the third time, I got to the end of the meditation, but I stopped before I could project. Since I've been making progress every time, it would be bad to stop now. It should only take 1 or 2 tries to get to the astral realm, and I think I know exactly what to do when I do get there.

Day 34 <3

🎀✨Day 34: I have an idea for how IRL magis can find each other! If you have a transformation device that transforms into jewelry, you could either bring it, or if you want it to be more hidden, you could bring something that looks like it. For example, I am going to wear a grey ring on my left 3rd finger to show I am a puella magi. It won't be my actual soul gem even after I contract because it is only meant to signal to other magis. I will probably keep my soul gem more hidden, like in my pocket. ⏱💣I had a lucid dream, and I called out to Kyubey both out loud and telepathically, but I couldn't find him anywhere. I'll have to try again! 💐☕I really want to make a contract with Kyubey, but I feel like he's ignoring me or something. I wonder what I should do. 🎧🌊I tried to astral project so I could contract, but instead, I heard what sounded like an announcer talking about good things and how you should always get them when you can. He put a weird amount of emphasis on "good things," so maybe he was trying to tell me things. 🍎📿I realize I have never made a script for my concept and myself as a magical girl. And I have a perfectly good magical girl journal lying around, hardly touched. c:

Guess what I did. ^u^ I contracted! I'm a real puella magi now.

I use a necklace, but it isn't really my soul gem because my soul gem is in the astral. It's just a visualization for it/way of managing it in the physical realm. I wrote in my journal about the specifics. I'll transcribe it.

Contract day! Day 0. 7/17/2024. I made a contract with Kyubey. He had a black hat that looked like an upside down bowl. This is what happened: I got the necklace for my soul gem and put it in the middle of the circle. I sat on one side and told Kyubey to sit on the other. I put a white ring on my left to represent the hope of magical girls. I put a black ring on my right to represent the despair of magical girls. Lastly, I put a purple ring in front of me to represent myself. When all that was done, I cast a circle and called upon Kyubey. He answered and asked "What is your wish?" I didn't expect him to get there so quickly. I forgot my wish and almost left the circle to grab this journal to remember. Instead, I made myself focus until I remembered. I repeated my wish until the phrasing felt right. I think he could tell I wasn't very comfortable the first few times. When he transferred my soul, it felt like something was touching my insides, but it didn't hurt, it was just uncomfortable. When it was complete, I felt extremely dizzy, and my body felt hollow and lightweight. The Kyubey looked like this:

@meguca-meduka was the one that helped me figure out how to contract without astral projecting, so I am very thankful to you, Rem! ^U^

Day 35 <3

🎀✨Day 35: My first journal entry as a real magical girl! I made my contract and went on a patrol to find a witch, and I think I found one. I noticed there was almost no one outside at all, so I don't think I'll have much competition. ⏱💣Funny story, I may or may not have gotten sick right after contracting (I thought I was cursed), so I might wait a bit to fight the witch. 💐☕Now that I'm a real puella magi, I'll be able to offer advice from my own experience as well! I'll be able to make them much more in depth. ^_^ 🎧🌊I wonder what my magi power is. I've been wondering if it has to do with electricity because the lights in my house keep breaking, and I haven't been able to keep a stable connection on the phone for calls all day. I'll try out magic in the astral, or maybe I'll ask Kyubey if I can find him. 🍎📿I was trying to "build a tolerance" to be far from my soul gem (that's not how it works, don't do that), and I realized I think the physical equivalent and astral one are not tied together, but it seems more like it's easier to keep and use your astral one with you if you take the physical one with you. You can kind of bilocate and keep your astral soul gem with you that way. Being an astral magi is much safer, I suppose.

Day 36 <3

🎀✨Day 36: There is a new magical hero symbol! Like the shifting symbol, it is a way to subtly know if someone's a magical hero! There's also an emoji combination too: 🎀🌟. They were both decided on by Magi Metro. The drawing is by Rem (@meguca-meduka).

⏱💣I think I found a familiar, so I'll try and fight them if I can astral project. I'll also try and train in the astral if I can. 💐☕I've been having a strange feeling that there's a rival magical hero in my area. I hope it's just a feeling. I don't think I'd be able to win any fights yet. 🎧🌊I haven't done a cool transformation sequence yet, but I should. I only poofed into my magical outfit, but I think it would be nice to be stylish with it. 🍎📿I keep getting these weird feelings (memories? visuals?) I haven't gotten since last year, and the voices have been a lot more clear this year, but they've also been less frequent. I feel like something's trying to tell me something, and I'm not understanding it.

Day 37 <3

🎀✨Day 37: Lots of things having to do with soul gems makes me feel physically empty, sometimes in a good way, sometimes in a bad way. When I contracted and wasn't used to my soul being outside my body, I felt dizzy and empty, and then when I purified my soul gem, it made me feel empty in a good way, like I got rid of clutter in myself. ⏱💣I should really fight the witches and familiars I find. I kept putting it off because I was worried I couldn't astral project, but you don't need to. I should just bilocate since that's a lot easier for me to not get lost. 💐☕There are worse villains than witches, and they keep trying to sabotage everyone. I wish I could fight them, but I'm supposed to trust others to fight them in a better way. 🎧🌊I think of being a magical hero like being an exorcist. The witches are basically souls that need to be put to rest, so fighting them helps them as well. Sometimes I see people saying they feel like fighting witches is like fighting anyone else and you shouldn't do it, but there's no cure for them, so it's better this way. 🍎📿You guys would never think I'm evil, right? Can I still be a cute magical girl, no matter what happens?

Day 38 <3

🎀✨Day 38: It's been two months since I contracted and become a magical girl. It's a bit hard to keep up with school and magic at the same time. ⏱💣I've collected many sigils, but I've only fought two witches. I currently have two witch sigils (one, which is too powerful to fight on my own), two familiar sigils, and another witch sigil that I shouldn't fight because they're in another territory and that would be rude (I only wrote it down for practice). There's also one near my house, but it's hard to get the sigil without being suspicious. At this point, I'm worried the familiars have turned into witches by now. 💐☕I prioritize fighting witches over familiars because of their higher danger level, but as a result, I've never actually fought a familiar before (I know that's not saying much considering I haven't even fought many witches, but still). 🎧🌊I've always wondered how many grief seeds a puella magi would have on hand at any given time. I assumed it would be only one, if any. I currently have two grief seeds that are completely empty, and I used one up fully. I noticed they tend to have three uses even if you feel like your soul gem was more or less cloudy then usual. It all evens out I guess. 🍎📿Also, for what sensing witches feels like, and what it's like to find sigils, I sensed a witch at school, but since it takes a few minutes to get the sigil down correctly, I stayed there during lunch to make sure I'd have enough time to get it right. While I stayed right at the labyrinth's entrance, I could feel overwhelming negative energy, and it just felt like bad emotions and like it was harder to breathe and think there. If you leave your soul gem far away, you don't really feel that anymore. I've used that trick whenever I was "off duty" because I don't like the way sensing witches makes me feel. As for sigils, you kind of get visuals in your head just by being near them, but it's hard to "detangle" the lines in my mind, so it always takes a bit. There was one really powerful witch I mentioned earlier. The way I know they're powerful without fighting them is that I could strongly sense them a block away, but most witches are harder to sense that strongly that far away.

Day 39 <3

🎀✨Day 39: I keep feeling like I have to do magical duties all the time now. Maybe it comes with being a magi. ⏱💣I've learned that apparently, sigils and a witches Kiss are the same thing with different names. 💐☕While making the guides, I have realized that I have to make separate guides for witches, labyrinths, and familiars because it was too long when I tried to combine them all. 🎧🌊I'm going to carve an active sigil into something to see if it curses it and if defeating the witch will reverse it. Just some mahou experimentation. 🍎📿I drew some art for multiple events. The first one was an event like the game "Telephone," and the second one was for an event themed around Undertale and magical girls.

"Bringer of the light symbolizes Frisk showing the monsters the sun or showing them the light at the end of the tunnel. It is also a parallel to Lucifer, who is both an angel and demon simultaneously."

Day 40 <3

🎀✨Day 40: It's my birthday today! It's also Madoka Kaname's birthday! I'm 17 now. It feels like just yesterday I was 15. Or 14 or 12. Actually, it's a little hard to remember my age ahaha! ⏱💣I have so many unfinished guides in my drafts! I really have to finish those! There are currently around 10. 💐☕Speaking of finishing things, I really need to clean some things up on this blog. Or at least make sure links are all updated. 🎧🌊I'm planning on participating in Mahoutober, but I am a bit late, and I take a bit to finish drawings, so I might be late on every prompt, but I will try to do them all, even if it extends into November! 🍎📿I love writing stories so much. Maybe someday I will write a story from the perspective of a magical girl. It might make it easier to understand what it's like to be one, since I doubt I'm very descriptive on this blog.

Everything I know about witches

What are witches?

Witches are the manifestation of despair. They are the main thing puella magis fight. They hide in labyrinths and can be dangerous if left unchecked. They often have familiars to help them spread curses and to protect themselves.

Why we fight witches

We fight witches because they are dangerous. If left unattended, they can hurt people. The severity depends, but they typically hurt a persons mental health or control them with a witch's Kiss to bring them closer to their labyrinth. The other reason we fight them is to obtain grief seeds. A puella magi's soul gem gets corrupted over time or by using magic, so we need to use grief seeds to cleanse them to stay healthy, happy, and magical.

How are witches created?

Witches can be created by negative energy, a corrupted grief seed, a corrupted soul gem, or familiars. Negative energy is the most common source of a witch. I do not know much about this, but you can imagine it as a corruption happening outside a grief seed or vessel. Corrupted grief seeds can hatch witches. It's something you don't think about, but it does happen. If a grief seed absorbs too much despair, it can become corrupted just like a soul gem. That's why it's important to give all full grief seeds to an incubator. The last way, a corrupted soul gem hatching a witch, is the way most people are aware of. If a puella magi does not clean their soul gem, and it corrupts from negative emotions or use of magic, it can hatch into a witch. It is very important to use grief seeds or doppels for that reason. Familiars can become witches if they stray from the labyrinth and eat humans on their own. They need to get a certain amount of negative energy to be able to become a witch, and then they will become like any other witch, with their own labyrinth and everything. That is why some magis fight familiars despite their lack of grief seeds.

A witch's Kiss/sigils

Most commonly known as a witch's Kiss, and by some magis as sigils, these are the symbols witches have that lets us track them down from far away. They will sometimes appear on the witch's victims to lure them to their labyrinth or corrupt their mind. You can also find the sigil at the entrance of the labyrinth and write it down to find the witch again. Astral magis use that as a way to find witches in the astral realm.

Sigil/witch's Kiss experiment.

I wondered what effect drawing or carving a witch's sigil into something would have, so I have tested it out. Here is what I have found. Disclaimer: Don't do this. Keep in mind, I drew it myself instead of being kissed by a witch, and I am a puella magi, so it might not affect me the same way it would a civilian or even a magi from another concept. I drew the sigil of a witch I have not fought on my hand with a washable marker. Here is what I noticed happening in mostly chronological order:

I suddenly felt safe around witches instead of feeling awful.

I felt like I was somehow doing something right, but at the same time, I felt like I wasn't completely in control of myself.

I felt similar to how I did when I became a magical girl, but if the sigil was the soul gem. There was that empty feeling, but more like I was a reanimated corpse, which is fair, I guess.

I started having negative thoughts I never had before.

I kept having thoughts that weren't my own that were telling me things about how the witch is "safe" and "home".

I got dazed and kept feeling like I was going to go unconscious.

I had thoughts/urges to rip my soul gem off and throw it away.

I also had thoughts of harming the people around me.

When thinking about defeating the witch, I found I had none of that natural urge to do so that being a puella magi gives you. I thought about it, and I don't think I would be willing to fight the witch at all if I had the sigil on. They felt like my allies at that point.

Day 41 <3

🎀✨Day 41: I've been wearing my soul gem more often instead of just having it near me, and sensing witches feels so weird. Powerful witches can feel similar to getting a cut right on your fingertips instead of somewhere with less nerves if you understand what I mean. ⏱💣I made a priorities list so I would stop forgetting to do magical work, drawings for IRL mahoutober, and more. I also figured out that if I tell myself I'll only draw a line for one drawing, I end up getting sucked in and doing lots of work on it. It's a good strategy! 💐☕I'm going to make witch logs which explain the events that happened during a witch hunt and details of the witch. The reason I am deciding to do this is that fighting witches just got interesting, and I have some tea to spill. I'll have to make witch logs of the witches I fought before this one, but the interesting one will be witch log 4. I know I haven't been keeping up with my duties. I could sense all of negative energy. But I've been trying to find the sigils and fight them. 🎧🌊I feel like as a magical hero, you protect a lot of people, but who is there to protect you? I understand Mami Tomoe a lot better now. This fourth witch messed with my head more that I ever expected a witch to... 🍎📿I played Royale High a while ago, and I was able to make my character look just like me! ^_^

Everything I know about labyrinths

What labyrinths are

Labyrinths are the places witches and familiars hide in. They are hidden and can only be accessed through a doorway of sorts, which can sometimes be seen as a sigil or grief seed that's about to hatch. Witches sometimes bring their victims to their labyrinths in an attempt to eat them.

Astral labyrinths

Astral labyrinths can be accessed through sigils or by astral projecting right by the labyrinth's entrance. You can also bilocate in order to be in both an astral labyrinth and the physical realm at the same time. Theoretically, you could be fighting a witch and doing your homework at the same time, but that doesn't mean it's a good idea. It's best to focus when you are in a labyrinth so you don't get hurt.

Physical labyrinths

I am not a physical magi, so I don't know much about this. Physical labyrinths are in the physical realm, so they can be more physically dangerous, while astral labyrinths may be more mentally/spiritually dangerous. I would assume it's easier for civilians to get lost in these, especially if they have a witches Kiss. When dealing with a physical labyrinth, it is important to make sure everyone near is safe, and to check to make sure there's no one on the inside either. It would be very dangerous for any non magical hero.

Navigation

You may be wondering how you find these labyrinths in the first place. You can do so in a few slightly different ways. You could use your soul gem's glow. The brighter it glows, the closer you are. The way I use most is sort of a sixth sense. You know when a witch is near, and you can see the sigil in your mind's eye. With this sense, you can also tell which direction they are in and how strong they are and if they're a familiar. It's hard to explain it if you don't have that sense. Once you're in the labyrinth, you could get lost very easily. There tend to be long hallways or many rooms empty or filled only with familiars. There isn't any trick to finding your way that I know of yet. The best advice I can give to you is to look around and try and find places you haven't gone yet. They aren't (usually) mazes, so it shouldn't take an hour to find the witch or anything.
