Just a death witch figuring it out
Guess who’s back? I love when I find a loophole~

I finally updated Apollo’s hoop. Artemis’s was full for a while 😅 With my own altar space, I try to incorporate things that make me smile or inside jokes/nods with a deity. That way, it’s good vibes towards the space. #deityworship #witch

Bibliomancy was the first version of divination I tried and it still has a funny way of showing up. The top quote was how this cycle started and the bottom quote was the answer.

Spirit is very loud when you know how to pay attention.

Still going through finals but it reminded me of the importance of dreaming and being open to possibilities. It is so easy to settle and live life on autopilot. Dreams can also be small. I would love a fancy-looking miniature herb garden. Sending y’all love 💛

I am Melody but most people call me Mel. If I must pick labels, I have been a medium and death witch for over 5 years. Questions on my mind usually involve the human experience, change and transformation, culture, and the synchronicities that tie them all together.

A casual improvised celebration of Chaharshanbeh Suri. It is usually a bonfire but the importance is the fire. That dates back to Zoroastrianism. To remove the energy of winter to jump into spring.

Some wisdom from Loki.

I don’t feel like Persian New Year but honestly, some luck and good vibes are needed.

The theme seems to be going back to basics. Which include building community, developing friendships in a meaningful way, education, food, and the aspects of identity that make us ourselves. Our good ancestors survived on less. Critical thinking is fundamental as is knowing when to shift perspective

The greatest gift one can give is allowing people to be their most authentic selves. To keep people accountable while allowing them to grow and expand. If I’m lucky, people who can journey into the darkness but also play dress up to explore a castle. #witch #fullmoon

Sometimes, community building is creating opportunities to connect. It is letting people in.

I deeply believe that one of our greatest forms of resistance is our joy.

They want our pain, our fear, our terror. I refuse.

I am joy. I am love and fulfillment and bounty and beauty; I am a living, breathing expression of the divine magic of the Universe in all Her wisdom.

I'm not teaching my grad course 'Civil Resistance: How It Works' this semester. But here is an abridged version of the course schedule, readings, and films I used the last time I taught it (in 2022). Just in case it's useful. drive.google.com/file/d/14RRJ...

I was talking to a buddy of mine about it and we both noticed our spending was in check when we weren’t overwhelmed. Exhaustion messes with impulse control and executive function.
If you're feeling overwhelmed, it's intentional. They're calling it "flooding the zone." The intent is to overwhelm and exhaust us so we can not effectively resist. Something simple you can do right now now is to make sure to take breaks and rest.

You are the altar that travels with the ancestors and spirits. You share their power in your bones; blood or not. Housing wishes, hopes, fears, and curses. Liminal limits making way for possibility. Remember to clear some space for love. Kindness can have conditions. May you be adored or feared.

I haven’t written a folk song before but it seems like a good year to start. This is only a first step.
I wrote the first verse before we had the fires 😅

Changing with the seasons is normal but this year feels different. My tarot reading for the month emphasized discernment. I’m starting to see why. I thought it was a reminder to clarify my values but it may have been a call to stick to them.

May we learn and grow together to figure this out.
