From the moment I read the first pages, I felt a surge of energy course through me. For the last couple of decades, I’ve been searching for answers of my Polish heritage and where certain ideas in regards to messages & rituals I have received from the ancestors came from.

Did you know that our ancestors had their own unique ways of perceiving the celestial bodies? The astronomy and astrology that are popular today have little to do with the original myths & “folk astronomy” of the Slavs.

I don’t love that today’s weather was more like it should’ve been the beginning of March and that one of my anemones released a flower in January. But I sure do love seeing my hellebores beginning to bloom! I adore hellebores 🖤💀 They’re giving me the gardening itch.
