Goodnight.
May we all sleep safely and warmly in our setts until a new day wakes us.
🖼️ Anita Inverarity
Illustration of a badger curled up and sleeping in its sett. The badger is surrounded by plants, toadstools, flowers and ferns. In the background the night sky can be seen through the trees, with a crescent moon, stars, and small standing stones on a hill. There’s a woodpecker on the trunk of the tree on the left. A Celtic knot symbol is carved into the tree trunk on the right.

Like a stubborn bloom
Living in cracks of concrete
You cannot kill hope.

Me: "Everything’s under control!"

Narrator: ...Absolutely nothing was under control.
An Osprey perched on a branch, feathers slightly ruffled and eyes wide, staring ahead with an intense, frozen focus. Its posture is rigid, as if it’s holding itself together while quietly experiencing an internal panic.

Evening.
🖼️ Astrid Sheckels
A watercolor painting by artist Astrid Sheckels. It depicts a group of woodland animals, including rabbits, mice, a badger, and squirrels, performing as a string orchestra in a forest setting. The animals are dressed in formal attire, such as tuxedos and a dress, and are playing various string instruments, including violins, a cello, and a double bass. The scene is illuminated by two large candelabras attached to trees and a string of lights in the branches above.

Saturday plans:
🖼️ Kristina Kemenikova
An illustration by Kristina Kemenikova depicting a cosy scene both above and below ground. Above ground: A large, brown, dried leaf stands in the center, resembling a tree. A small birdhouse is attached to its stem, and several small birds are perched on the leaf and flying in the grey sky. Tall, dry grasses and other plants surround the central leaf. A small black stovepipe with smoke coming out of it extends from the ground. Below ground: A cross-section reveals a small, circular burrow. Inside, a mouse in a red sweater is sitting in a red chair, holding a cup. A small white stove with a teapot on top is to its right. A basket of food is hanging from the ceiling, and a lamp provides light. The mouse appears to be relaxing in a warm, comfortable home.

An illustration of a skeleton, carrying a jack-o'-lantern candy bucket and a black umbrella, walking down a path with a black cat. The scene is set on a rainy, autumn night with a full moon and bats flying in the sky. The background features bare trees, falling leaves, and two spooky-looking houses.

Samhain is when the veil between worlds is thin.. As scavengers, crows are connected to death, but this is part of a larger cycle of death and rebirth, which is a central theme of Samhain. They are believed to have the ability to cross between worlds, carrying messages.
Art my own.
