Ancient runes whisper in gold. Stardust settles on midnight surfaces. Every element is a ceremony — every interaction, a sacred rite drawn from tarot, alchemy, and natural magic.

Illusion & Intuition
Hidden truths lurk beneath silver light. The unconscious mind speaks in symbols the waking eye cannot read. Trust what stirs beneath the surface.
The Sacred Laws
Laws carved into the foundation of the craft. Follow them with reverence — deviation breaks the ritual.
“Darkness is not the absence of light — it is the presence of depth. Every interface built in night becomes a mirror for what the user carries within.”
— The Witchcore Grimoire, Chapter I
Ancient Manuscript
Four chapters of foundational law — the written record of every principle that governs this system of mystical interface design.
Chapter
I
Begin every interface with darkness. The void is not empty — it is the canvas upon which all sacred light becomes visible. Light text on dark surfaces is not a style choice; it is a cosmological truth.
Chapter
II
Ritual gold #c9a74e shall appear where the eye must rest and the hand must reach. Borders, headings, and interactive elements carry this sacred hue. Its glow is never garish — always restrained, as candlelight in a stone chamber.
Chapter
III
Ceremony cannot be rushed. All transitions shall span no less than five hundred milliseconds. Seven hundred is preferred. The user must feel the weight of each interaction — as one feels the turning of a page in an ancient manuscript.
Chapter
IV
Amethyst #7b68ae connects the earthly interface with the mystical. It appears in secondary elements, supporting text, and decorative accents. It softens where gold commands, whispers where gold speaks.
