I got this super cute journal for my birthday and I have no idea what I want to do with it yet 😅 I'm not much of a 'daily journal' person, so I think I want to turn it into a crafting journal where I keep track of my crochet and knitting projects!

This picture was taken a few days ago -- I can't help but keep staring at it because it's just so pretty. The way the morning sunshine hit the newly-golden leaves on this maple tree uplifted my entire morning 💖

We were finally able to have our D&D session this weekend! 💖 It was so much fun, and I can't wait for the next one -- but it's a whole month away!

I had some time yesterday to sit down with some incense and candles and meditate before getting my day started, and I can't tell you how nice it felt to sit there in peace while I ate my breakfast and drank my coffee ☕❤️

I wanted to share this with you all 💖 just know that every act of kindness, every smile, every act of goodness you do may be the thing that pulls someone back from the cliff. You matter, even if you can't always see it.
White text on a black background that reads as follows: They say nobody is coming to save you, but many people have saved me, even if they didn't intend to. It can be as small as a smile from a stranger, a nudge from an animal, words from a writer, the lyrics to a song, an observant friend. We are all saving each other every single day in tiny seemingly insignificant ways. @irisrosepoetry

And then, if you look up the domain information (which anyone can do, btw), you will see that this domain isn't registered to anyone in the USA at all. In fact, it's registered to a trading company out of China.

And guess what? The name under the Registrar Info is Alibaba.
Registrar Information Name: Alibaba Cloud Computing Ltd. d/b/a HiChina (www.net.cn)

Another red flag, and this one is huge, is that their About Us section doesn't line up with reality. You can see it in the image - ALT text has been provided, too.

A physical store in Salem, MA, with this name doesn't exist. I couldn't find the festival they mention, either.
We are a family from Salem. Our family has practiced and passed down witchcraft traditions and folklore for many generations. This makes us one of the few families with a long, continuous history in this craft. Our journey to this online store started with our yearly Witches' Festival. The festival grew very popular over time. We decided to take a leap of faith and open this online store. It was not an easy step to take. Behind every design is a team of passionate and skilled people. Our lead designers are real witches and mystics. They live right here in Salem. Local clothing makers and artisans craft our garments with care. They are part of our community. We pay close attention to the quality of our clothing. We use natural, comfortable materials like linen and cotton. Our garments feature thoughtful tailoring. We offer inclusive sizing to fit many body types. Every piece is made to feel good and look special. Our store is not driven by profit as its main goal. We created it to inspire personal freedom through witch-inspired style. We support marginalized communities. We promote genuine magical education. We protect and share our important folk legends. We need your support to continue our work. Your support helps us reach more people who love witch culture. It helps us share our traditions and stories further. We hope you will join us and help us grow. We offer products that you might like and use, such as homes, clothing, accessories, etc., all of which will appear in our stores! At [redacted], we like to provide great products for fans. No matter what product, it can provide convenience for you, even become your favorite product and become an indispensable thing in your life. So be sure to drop by and stay to explore our experiences, stories, and shopping secrets from the [redacted] and even from our customers as well!

Here are some red flags in this picture to let you know it's not a true representation of the shirt they're selling.

🚩 lack of shadows
🚩 no folds or drapes on the clothing
🚩 abnormally smooth skin
🚩 the graphic on the shirt doesn't follow the folds and drape of the shirt on the woman

It's not much, but I managed to get outside this morning for some sunshine and tea 🌞 right now, it's all about embracing the little moments I can make time for.

I've had this skull candle for damn near 10 years. I never burned it because I didn't want to ruin it, but I think this is the year to do it. It's the perfect candle for a Samhain ritual, I think. Now, I just need to plan it out.

Don't let yourself get distracted this week. Sparkly new things are always around, but when you've got a goal to accomplish, it's better to ignore them.

It may still be Summer, but we've had some days gloomy enough for me to break out my Happy Light. It's time to get into the habit of using it again anyway, that way Winter and his blues don't sneak up on me ❄️

I hate this *soo much* 🤬

WHYYY is ChatGPT a top referrer to my website in the last 7 days?! I get that it's only 4 views, but it should be zero.

I picked up a few new goodies this weekend from a local store! I hardly ever buy new things like this, but these just spoke to me. I got two small animal figures (a wolf & a horse) as well as a fluorite bracelet 💜

I woke up to a cool house this morning after having the windows open last night. It's a nice change from the heat, so I'm enjoying it curled up under a blanket with a book 📖

Authenticity is what draws people to you, so be yourself! Friends will be there waiting for you once you stop actively searching for them. Be willing to step out of your comfort zone -- get out there and make those connections. #WitchSky
