#Persephone has challenged me to complete something. I have chosen to finally complete a rough draft of the novel I've been wanting to write for over a decade.

Your innate worth is not determined by your level of spiritual attainment nor by your dedication to magick.

We are all equally worthy, no matter where we find ourselves on the Path.

I have a terrible memory and actually had an address book in high school ( early 2000 ) I only memorized one or two numbers.

The reason colonizers are so afraid of immigrants is because they make the mistake of thinking that because all colonizers are immigrants, all immigrants are also colonizers. They think immigrants come with evil in their hearts, because colonizers come with evil in their hearts.

Every time my dad bakes cookies ( which he's been doing weekly since retiring last year ) it smells like a full roast dinner. My nose is weird.

It's an unhinged mess but it works for me; most of the time.

I think you're pretty aware of my practice by now, but I'm half Hellenic half Norse. When I feel like doing formal rituals I use my own version of the ADF ritual format.

Mother's Night on December 21 and Yule in early January is when I venerate my beloved dead and ancestors.

One of my characters was originally name after a friend. We're not friends anymore so I had to rename him, which led to me renaming almost all of my characters.

#WitchyTips and fellow #Pagans Feel free to sit at your altar with no specific intention. Shuffle a tarot deck with no question in mind. Let yourself enjoy your "stuff" for the sake of enjoyment.

Thanks for the encouragement. lol If I can get anything of substance written this coming month I'll consider it a win. I'm aiming for at least a Freytag’s Pyramid.

Odin, Hekate, Persephone, my Ancestors, Freyja, Loki, Hephaestus, Asklepious, Artemis, Apollo and occasionally Hel pops in. lol It's exhausting and honestly most don't get the attention they want.

I've heard of it, but didn't know there was a website. Sadly it looks like it's shutting down.

#WitchMadness Been doing some soul searching and I am a Syncretic Pagan. I no longer consider myself a #witch. I can perform #magick if needed, but it's not part of my general practice. 1/2

Boy did I need this. I’m always changing my practice and constantly feel like a newbie. It’s great to hear that change doesn’t always mean starting over, but evolution.

Can’t decide what to buy on Prime Day?

Try: absolutely nothing, and then go support indie bookstores instead 📚
