I like to listen, watch, and smell rain but I hate getting wet. So I’m like, half a pluviophile? I just hate sitting in wet clothes, makes my skin crawl.
It started in Ohio & then moved to West Virgina. Obviously with covid, nothing happened this year, but as far as I know, they’ll be back! I’ll definitely be going, so I’ll remember to keep you updated! It’s always been super transformative for me, I’ll try to find some photos
I enjoy being at home during a good rain, the sounds and smell is just so calming. My Frankie (Boston Terrier) will sleep almost the whole day if it is raining, so I think he likes it too!
@haley Thanks!! Yes, keep me updated!
@Rowan Sleeping in the rain is just the best. I’ve been listening to these lo-fi tunes on Youtube which are great for chilling, with a rainy atmosphere:
After learning that there was a word for loving thunderstorms, I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised there is a similar word for rain-lovers!
I relate wholeheartedly to 1,2,3, and 5, but I have to admit that I also don’t like being caught out in the rain But ohhhh- sitting at home, wrapped up warm and safe in fluffy blankets with a hot cup of tea and listening to the rain outside is an ideal day in my book
England is pretty infamous for rain- so yes, I think you’ve found a very good place for a pluviophile to be at home, @Abs53 !
This was fun to read- thanks so much for sharing!
Just found this little cutie of a prosperity spell in the book I’m reading (1001 Spells by Cassandra Eason). 📖 Weekly Witchy CHALLENGE- Books, Tomes, and Tales - #18 by Limeberry
Yay for puddles! I’m an adult, I promise.
Ohhhh love it! Will def be trying soon thanks for sharing!
What a cute little spell!
This is adorable!!! Hooray for prosperity spells- which are especially prosperous for whatever lucky child finds magical money-filled puddles after the spell
Love it- thanks for sharing, @LimeBerry!
Absolutely yes! I didn’t know there was a term for this. I’ve always loved everything about the rain! Others think I’m weird. But I say I’m not weird, it’s a gift!!
Did not know there was a term for this either. I guess I’m one too! I love the rain! I like being in it, hearing it, and watching it. Especially if it’s on the ocean or river. I also love the howling of the wind! Is there a term for it too? Lol…
Ooh, the howling of the wind! Good one!
Ahhh I love this! I would definitely say I am… I love gentle rain, thunderstorms, all kinds! I love when it rains all day or theres several days in a row of rain… I love the smell and hearing the sounds. Especially at night with my window open. It helps me sleep!
I found Anemophilia for lover of wind and also
Pronounced Sith-hur-ism is love of the sound of the wind rustling the leaves and that might be my favourite word so far
Beautiful!
Lol…I guess I’m one of those too. Its so calming and relaxing! Thanks for the research
Ohhhh when you say it out loud, it actually sounds like the wind blowing! Awesome onomatopoeia right there
Yes yes yes! Hi yall! First time posting… I moved from east Tennessee to Southern California a few years ago and I never realized how much I would miss the rain. I have to listen to it on youtube now… I have discovered so many different videos showcasing different types of rain and storm sounds. I wouldn’t have lasted it here where I am so long without them!
Hey @cassandra! Welcome!
I live in rainy England and still use rain sounds on my sleep app when the outside rain isn’t ‘the right kind’ hahaha gotta love technology
Merry Meet, @cassandra!
Ohhh, I love those rainy sound videos on YouTube! Do you have a favorite one? Like Francisco posted above, I also like the Lo-fi rain sounds. But when I’m craving natural sound, this is one of my go-to videos!
It’s got the rain , a crackling fire , and even a sleepy cat - makes me wish I could jump right into this video!
We haven’t had rain all summer and are in severe drought - high fire warnings…etc…but this morning it’s pouring!! YAY!!! So, whoever did the rain dance or rain spell thank you!
