that is hilarious!

@why-animals-do-the-thing is this owl actually happy?

Multiple people with professional bird experience that I’ve spoken with believe so! One noted that a some birds get so “into the scritch” that at times they will lose their balance or cease being aware of their surroundings (as you can see in this video) but that we don’t really know why. It looks like this owl was having a super good scratch, ended up leaning a little farther back that the human was in a good position to support, lost his balance, and recovered. It’s all good and yes, actually cute. 

(It’s worth noting, of course, that this is an interaction that can only occur because the person has a strong history with the owl and a lot of previously developed trust. This isn’t something you should ever consider doing with an owl you don’t know and haven’t been trained to work with.)

🍃’louperial ral’ plant restoration spell 🍃

alpinewitch:

i’m new to green witchery – some of my plants don’t look so healthy, and sigils can only do so much. this spell will give your plant a much-needed health boost 🌱  (based off ‘little witch academia’)

image

time: this spell should be performed on a new moon

gather: willow bark, sun water, eggshells

optional materials: moonstone and jade chips (both are associated with growth + fertility)

preparations: crush the willow bark and eggshells into a powder. make sure the sun water is freshly charged.

🌿  sprinkle your powder at the base of your plant and in a ring around the stem

🌿  make an inner ring with moonstone, then an outer ring with jade

🌿  water your plant with the sun water before anointing its leaves

🌿  raise your arms and out loud, state the words

louperial ral!

(pronounced loo-peer-ee-al ral)

the energy from the powder and stones will revitalise your plant. make sure to be liberal with the sun water – this will act as a catalyst for your spell!
