#WitchSky + #PaganSky Good Morning! I hope you all are doing well! #TheCallieach has given my neck of the global woods our first snow fall of the year! It’s winter indeed by me. What are you all doing? ( #WitchAlt )
A look at my street through a window. The cars, lawn, and roof of my neighbor’s house are dusted with snow.

Well #WitchSky and #PaganSky, I have a relatively big meeting today at my Big Girl Job TM. Some support in hoping that I actually get listened to would be appreciated! Also I bought the #IllustratedHerbiary yesterday, probably going to be my #IntroToShadowWork after I read through it once. #WitchAlt
The two books I got yesterday. The big novel is The Rose Field by Phillip Pullman and beside it is the Illustrated Herbiary.

#WitchSky + #PaganSky, I’m currently reading “The Path of the Hedge Witch” by Joanna van der Hoeven. I listened to the audiobook about a year ago on #Spotify but thanks to #KoboPlus I have a copy to read. So far I’m really liking it! #WitchAlt

I personally don’t work with her, or know that much about her, but an image ingrained in my mind is Lilith from #Evangelion. She has multiple forms, and ultimately the one of her pinned to the cross is the most striking. It’s not accurate to the Kabbalah at all, but THIS is what I think of.

I’ve been practicing #sketching on and off, and today sketched #bluejays in order to spend time with a specific spirit I work with. I’ve been slowly getting into a more consistent rhythm with a practice now that karate is officially over!

#WitchSky #ArtSky #PaganSky I’ve done some sketching of #BlueJays today to practice and spend time with a #SpiritGuide of mine. Here’s a thread of my progress! #PhysicalMedium #A5Paper #GelPens #BlackInkPen. #WitchAlt
Attempts one and two at a blue jay. Please ignore how unproportioned the first attempt is. The second attempt is much better and I put the blue jay on a tombstone for Halloween. Not as colorful though. Used light blue gel pen and black normal ink pen. Attempt three on the right and I tried a different position. Definitely not the best but this one got better after coloring. Body first drawn in dark blue gel pen, then I started to outline in black ink pen The outlining has progressed into coloring in using the dark and light blue gel pens. And we’re done! Definitely not my favorite but it looks much better with the light blue body and some feint dark blue shading.

#WitchSky + #PaganSky Have you ever had a deity or spirit so excited for you learning about them that the very day you start in-depth research, a pretty version of their myths end up on your feed? Because I started reading Freya by Morgan Daimler and this popped up so I bought it.

Hey everyone! Here’s a quick #ArtMeditation I did based on a #OracleCard pull that asked me to start taking steps to be more vulnerable with others. A lot of the colors used were also used to take notes on the draw.
This is an incomplete drawing. It’s meant to be either a sunrise or sunset over an ocean and hitting a cliff face. Here is the completed drawing! I used acrylic paint pens and this is a sunrise or sunset on an ocean facing a cliff. The birds, sun, and clouds are reflected in the water and the cliff contains trees in shadow. The birds are also a shadowy as well.

I finished A Tea Witch’s Grimoire by SM Harlow and I cannot recommend it enough! 8.5/10, definitely coming back to this one for the rest of my life even if she seems to be working from a more New Age perspective. (1/2)
The book is small and has a green cover with a clear glass teapot showing the herbs in the tea blend as well as a cup with a flower growing out of it. Its title is in fancy quasi-Gothic text in black that reads: “A Tea Witch’s Grimoire”. “SM Harlow” is written in smaller similar white text on the bottom left of the cover.

I did a spell today for the health and vitality for my family as the fall slowly drifts in with the falling leaves! Here is a picture of the final product, in which I made a vanilla ice cream and apple cider smoothie called #WitchesBrew. More in Alt.
The picture shows two clear glasses of Witches’ Brew, the spell I used to bless my family with health and vitality for fall, on a granite countertop. Witches’ Brew is a drink my mom used to make for us around Halloween time. It consists of vanilla ice cream, honey, cinnamon, and apple cider. The ingredients are as follows: -4 scoops of Lactaid Vanilla ice cream -Almost 2 cups of apple cider for health, mainly because apples are at their peak starting around this time and moving into early October. (PS: I eyeball the apple cider and it usually works every time. No need for exact measurements.) -Cinnamon sprinkled counterclockwise to keep the lethargy away. -Honey for sweetness in the fall to come.

#WitchSky and #PaganSky happy September first! What’s on everyone’s agenda for today? I’m currently moving about some stale energy and packing away my books in slow preparation for moving out! Here’s a picture of my progress:
( #WitchAlt )
Four different containers of books are shown in the photo as I systematically clean the containers, put the books in there, and stack them in a corner of my room. I have one cardboard Amazon box, one big sliding plastic container to fit under my bed, and two of my three milk crates in the photo.

#WitchSky #PaganSky #ArtSky #WriteSky IT CAME! I have a migraine so I didn’t use it, but it came! Here’s what it looks like below! ACK I’m so excited! A sketchbook/daily journal perfect for my path as a witch, a novice artist, and a writer! ( #WitchAlt )
A purple leather bound notebook that has the sun, the moon, the stars and a pretty geometric border. The word on the cover is notebook. It all appears to be engraved versus stamped.

Hi #WitchSky and #PaganSky! Here was my #KitchenMagick for #Lughnasadh! It’s a homemade Pumpkin Spice creamer for abundance and joy during the transition of summer into fall! I sealed it in an airtight jar that was originally used for instant coffee. What do you all think?

I decided to use #TheTarotOfTheDivine deck that I use for contacting #TheMorrigan and I interviewed the deck again. Here’s a picture of the spread and the pull below! Interpretation in #WitchAlt! What did everyone else do for the #DarkMoon, #WitchSky and #PaganSky?
It’s a spread for interviewing a new deck! It starts with the red card, then you travel up to the brown card, down to the green card, up to the orange card, up to the cream card, and down finally to the blue card. The questions are as follows: 1) Tell me about yourself 2) What are your strengths as a deck? 3) What are your limits as a deck? 4) What are you here to teach me? 5) How best can I learn and collaborate with you? 6) What is the potential outcome of our relationship? 1) Tell me about yourself = Death. This deck is all about transformations, change, and moving on from cycle to cycle. Kinda apt for the Morrigan. 2) What are your strengths as a deck? Nine of Coins. Its independent streak, hardworking nature, patience, and maturity are things the deck succeeds in. 3) What are your limits as a deck? Two of Cups. From my understanding, it’s limits comes from the fact that we are not yet equal partners in a relationship. As of right now, it’s more of a mentor/mentee relationship. 4) What are you here to teach me? Temperance. Finding my purpose in life as well as where I fit in the harmony of the world around me. To find peace in the cycle that Death had brought to an end. 5) How best can I learn and collaborate with you? Knight of Coins. Hard work, and persistence. AKA, be more present in your practice and do it more consistently. 6) What is the potential outcome of our relationship? Justice. Finding my place in the world and living with enough kindness and honor to help others who struggle with the same thing and protecting them when they can’t protect themselves. Being fair to and respectful of everyone.

For my #TeaTrayAltar to #TheMorrigan , I added another sketch possibility—Oweynagat, the Cave of Cats! I drew it on the back of a notepad while at work sitting on hold with insurance companies. More in alt!

#WitchAlt #PaganSky #WitchSky #IrishPaganism #TeaMagick #MyArt
So it’s a very rough sketch using my gel pens. The greens represent the mound, cave entrance and trees. The blue represents mists I envision rolling in and up like a handle to the side of the cave opening to make it look like a tea cup. The orange stars are above because I see this in my head as a night scene, accompanied by the crescent moon. The crescent moon is in there because I associate it with the Keen Edge translation of the Mórrígan’s name.

Some photos from my yard tonight. I can’t place why, but this feels like #Macha to me.

#MyPhotography #NightMode #WitchSky #PaganSky #WitchAlt #IrishPaganism #Summer #ArtSky #Deer #Fireflies
Using night mode on my phone camera, I got a picture of a deer while taking out my dogs. Using night mode on my phone camera, I got a picture of a deer walking away while taking out my dogs. This one also includes fireflies who have been extremely active this summer. Using night mode on my phone camera, I got a picture of a deer while taking out my dogs. This one was a very bad close up. Sorry everyone! Using night mode on my phone camera, I got a picture of a deer while taking out my dogs. So part of night mode is standing still for a few seconds to get the shot. Rocky is not like Cookie and didn’t sit nice when I was taking photos, and I ended up jerking forward when he lunged to go after the doe. I wanted to delete it originally, but honestly I think this is my favorite one of the nine I took. Also, there are fire flies floating around above the blurred deer.

#WitchSky #Herbalism #PaganSky #WhitePeach #Ginger #WitchAlt

My mom had stomachaches and nausea yesterday all yesterday and some of today, so I made White Peach Ginger syrup which I mix with plain seltzer for homemade ginger ale. I figured I share it since it’s summer in a bottle to me!
The White Peach Ginger simple syrup in an old instant coffee glass jar. I pour it into a glass with ice and some seltzer and mix it all up.

#WitchSky #ArtSky #PaganSky #WitchAlt I give you my first sketch for a tea tray altar mock up. I got the idea from the Tea Witch’s Grimoire. Since I asked for help on my black belt test, I wanted to offer the Morrigan something using the boards that were broken on me. I need another go at a mockup.
A rough sketch using acrylic paint markers and a dotted lined page of my journal. It’s meant to be the first draft of a tea tray altar offering to the Morrigan. I have a white lined tea cup in the center of a black rectangle outlined in bronze. Above it are crow, horse, and wolf tracks to signify the Morrigan’s transformations. To the bottom left is a bundle of lavender and to the right is a mist slowly rolling in as a reference to the Morrigan’s control of magic during the Battle with the Formorians… It’s a complete mess lol. There are arrows heading to notes explaining whatever why something was there. The different paint colored lines were to clean the paint markers after layering. It’s a chaotic mess.

To anyone who has seen my updates the past few days/weeks, I’ve been gearing up to my black belt test. I am please to inform that the 3 Crows I saw yesterday morning were indeed a good sign! With the help of #TheMorrigan and all the goodwill from y’all, I passed! 🧵

Normally, I don’t post my pulls but I figured this one is an interesting exception. I’m getting back into the craft now that my new job started and the Mórrígan seems to be building off my familiar’s check in. 🧵
I pulled the four of swords/Fenrir, The High Priestess/Scheherazade, and The Moon from The Tarot of the Divine deck.

So I’m trying to find some low energy witchy things to do in order to keep a consistent practice up, and making “nice cream” on Mondays might be one of my bases for a new routine. It’s quick, easy, and extremely adaptable to any spell. More in alt.
A picture of my first attempt at making nice cream. The flavor is mint chocolate chip; however, peppermint extract with a mainly banana base creates an odd flavor that I’m not totally against but not sure I like either. I’m thinking of trying again with pineapple-mango, strawberry chocolate, and more attempts at the mint chip flavors. Mint chocolate chip would definitely be good for luck and perseverance I think. A good pick me up for a rough Monday and to help make the rest of the week better.

So a few weeks ago, I commissioned my friend @soulsilverstar.bsky.social to make Kobo stickers for me and they came out beautifully! If anyone is like me and has too much on their plate for art, I would definitely recommend commissioning him! More in alt!
Here are all the stickers laid out on my bed. The crow is for the Morrigan while the herbs are for my tea witch/green witch/kitchen witch labels! Roses and the yellow flowers and strawberries and lavender definitely give me herbalism and honoring the Gentry vibes. The mink holding tea is a representation of my dæmon if I lived in Phillip Pullman’s His Dark Materials universe, I call him Bard. Chamomile, tea cup, Bard in the center, a vine, and a strawberry on my Kobo. I’m using my Kobo Libra Color mainly for some witchy things and graphic novels. Now that I’m all done with my new job’s onboarding, I plan on relaxing with a bunch of my witchy books today—including the two on my Kobo.

Oh no! It’s an Introductory book into Fairy Craft written by Morgan Daimler, and she mentions the maple as sacred to the Good Neighbors in America. It’s honestly a short almost throw away line about why Maple Syrup is an okay substitute to Honey if needed.

Here’s my art for #Beltane! I decided to make a #ShoeBoxAltar, and I painted a portion of the inside with acrylic paint pens! More in the image alt!

Happy Beltane everyone!
A green vine comes down from the top left corner of the inside cover of the shoebox. At the end of each vine is a pinkish red strawberry with bright creamy yellow seeds. In between the vines, I added golden butterflies. I heard the Gentry like pretty things, so I hope this is an acceptable offering to both the Irish gods and the Good Neighbors!

To be miserly with my energy versus warning me from it? Especially when the cards I pulled ended with the Six of Wands, which represents a successful endeavor in this deck? I just wanted to hear #WitchSky + #TarotSky ‘s thoughts on the matter—especially since I’m seriously facing some burnout.
My pull from Thursday. Four Of Coins Representing Macha’s part in the message, the King of Swords representing Badh’s, and the Six of Wands representing Morgu’s. And it confuses me a bit because it doesn’t seem like a bad message at all, which is why I’m asking for help.
