I hope everyone knows that it's very easy for any social content platform, including Bluesky, to be a misery machine and that if you aren't intentional about it, they will absolutely decrease the positive impact you have on the world while making you less happy.

on giving away your attention & power

from @jamiattenberg.bsky.social's latest newsletter
A screenshot with white text on a black background that reads: "Look, there is being aware about what is going on in the world and there is volunteering your time to make a change (even if it’s just making *a phone call* or a *donation*), and then there is just giving up your energy and your brain power when it could be dedicated to your creative practice or acts of service or being present for people in your life. It’s your power. Use it wisely. You deserve the chance to achieve all kinds of success. Do not give them your power. It’s yours. You need it. You keep it. Then use it."

This feels like when BTW reading lists are like “just read Gardner and The White Goddess.” Yeah okay that’ll help and also I totally believe you’ve all read The White Goddess. 🥹

Here's a secret: 99% of Reddit users who advise newcomers to r/thelema to "just read Crowley" have never done it themselves, and if they had, they would not understand it.

A #painting from a while back. Circa 2018-2019 maybe? This one's called Salt Circle and it was painted with a literal ring of sea salt scattered into the wet paint to get those crunchy watercolor textures. In #folklore salt is protective against otherworldly spirits. #artist #watercolor #witchcraft
Watercolor painting of a candle burning in a vintage brass candle holder with a washy green background, in a ring of crunchy textures created with sea salt.

Here's a fun #colorstudy from last summer. Created with procreate brush lines, scanned analog paint textures, and gradient mapping to cycle through a 24 hour light cycle. (Quick-fire repost--Figured out how to make it square.) #natureart #hare #illustration #animation #witchart

Happy Start of the #DecanWalk Day to those who celebrate! Loving both of these books by @tsusanchang.bsky.social -- especially inspired by the words in "Dreaming the Decans" #tarot #astrology #tarotsky #astrologysky #tarottalk #witchsky
Two books sitting on a coffee table, both by T Susan Chang: "36 Secrets" & "Dreaming the Decans" - on top of the two books is the 2 of Wands card from the Waite-Smith tarot deck.
