🕯️ The Midnight Librarian 🕯️
@weirdarchives.bsky.social
Panentheistic mystic, librarian, and student of Appalachian folk magic, Jungian psychology, nature, and my own experiences

Take everything I and anyone else says with a grain (or maybe a whole circle) of salt.

The stigma around the paranormal makes it look like a much smaller conversation than it is.

If people truly felt free to talk about it, we'd find experiences are prolific and reach every corner of humanity.

Waning crescent
This makes so much sense to me as a liminal last step before the transition into something new
I also feel called to my craft most strongly during new moons and the waning leading to them
This is also when I feel most in control and powerful over myself, the most embodied my magic
Have you checked what moon phase you were born under? Mine was a waxing crescent. 🌒

Now, I've been through... the things lol. And I'm so grateful for this placement because even through... the things, I push through them in strength 💯🖤

How is your phase manifesting in your life, #WitchSky?

I'll be moving out of my family home soon. I have lived other places (college, Japan), but this was still my permanent address and home

I walked around my neighborhood last night, burning frankincense everywhere I went. This place holds my childhood and my family; it will always be sacred to me.

Got a new job as a 24-hour university overnight librarian
Could I be more dark academia? Maybe I should look into becoming a vampire

The moment you decide is when you're engaged. Decide to do a rite or summon a spirit you're engaged in the work. You decide to do a spell you're engaged with the spell. By this I mean really decide. We all know the difference between I think I'm going to and I am.

Can't stand gender/sex-essentialism and black-and-white thinking regarding gender in witch and spiritual spaces

Recognizing the roles of sex/gender/duality on society and the human experience is fine, but don't just repackage the same cages of patriarchy and try to sell it to me as liberation

Have you reached out to your inner child lately? Have you checked in with your inspirations and sense of play? Have you granted yourself grace for being human and having limitations? Have you become the person you needed when you were vulnerable? Are your unhealed wounds trapping you in the past?

If your consciousness continues after you die would that be a run-on sentience?

I've been thinking about the Three of Swords lately. It's so iconic, and, even if you don't know tarot, you can read the meaning of heartbreak in its imagery.

But I've also been considering my personal take on the nuances of the card, including its potential benefits...

As a librarian, I second this message. Heck, I am also a user of my local public library, and I have checked out stuff I may not end up reading, watching, etc. for any number of reasons. Hey life happens, no shame. We are happy for the numbers.
Hey, as a librarian I need to tell you:

Our funding depends on usage.

So go ahead and check out that book even if you don't think you'll finish it. No one will know. Check out that DVD even though you might not like it. Get ambitious in your quest for knowledge.

I'm not one to give energy/power to others' weird or negative behavior, but a patron at work gave me a leather pouch full of rocks and a picture of a dead baby
And a family member is having a baby in a couple days
So I'm doing an🥚cleanse just to be safe and to help get this out of my head

With the Annabelle doll in the news, I feel it needs to be said:

A lot of popularized ghost hunting
is trauma tourism
and maybe we should
reflect on why that appeals so much

It's so frustrating that my library has to restrict access to witchcraft-related books because patrons keep stealing them. I understand wanting witchy books for your own private collection, but, by stealing them from the library, you're denying access to the whole local community

Initiating my bff cause she accidentally flung herself headfirst into Shadow work without even knowing what that was
Proud of her instincts and intuition with it all tho

My subconscious has been trying desperately to tell me something lately, but I've not had the time to set aside and explore it 😓
Full moons always have my emotions and thoughts in overdrive

This is a reminder to myself to set aside some time to mediate and check-in on my own mental well-being more
