Final day- Day 16- of Brigid Muirin, Tarot Journey, and Herbalist Jessa's February "Let's Grow Together" Leo Full Moon ⤳ Pisces New Moon Challenge: Happy Place.
My garden is my happy place; it's not much, but we spent all spring last year building it after getting permission to use this little abandoned spot next to the garage, it's the only space around here that's good and truly mine.
When I need to get away from the Animals (which is often with 4 Cats + 1 Dog crammed into a tiny basement apartment); need to decompress from a bad day or big emotional swing (which can be intense with PMDD, BP II, and decades of poor anger management skills all fighting one another); I'm feeling antsy and really need to move my body; or just need some alone time for myself in general ... It's always there for me now.
I love the feel and smell of the soil, and all the various shades of green that can emerge. I love watching my hard work pay off over time. But more importantly, I love knowing that my body, even as broken as it is, is capable of something — of creation and nurturing; of bringing forth beauty into this world. It makes me feel connected to my Ancestors, all the way back to the first (Chava and Adam), and to HaShem itself.
"I believe God told us in the beginning exactly where we would find happiness with [them] on Earth. [Because] When God created Humans [… they] did not choose to place them on a mountaintop, in the ocean […] or a car. No, God chose a Garden as the ideal place. A paradise in which [their] beloved creations Adam and [Chava] should live [...]
Then God told Adam and [Chava] what they were to do in that Garden. [They] directly charged them with the task of cultivating and tending the plants of Eden; in paradise, where we might imagine indolent leisure as the ideal way to live, God puts Adam and [Chava] to work [instead]" — From 'God in the Garden: Discovering the Spiritual Riches of Gardening; A week by Week Journey Through the Christian Year' by Maureen Gilmer

• 🧙‍♂️Detente por un momento, respira profundo y pídele al universo que te brinden un consejo a través de las cartas del tarot.🧙‍♂️
• Justicia invertida, El Sol inertido...
Los prejuicios pueden ser muy duros algunas veces, otras veces pueden ser más, y otras veces no tanto, depende del ángulo del cual se vea la situación, pero los juicios que no formamos de nosotros mismos pueden afectarnos de manera positiva o negativa dependiendo del sentimiento con el que lo hagamos, por un no puedo, no debo, no me lo merezco en ves de eso cambien los juicios a manera de que todo sea positivo y que a pesar del panorama que emerge en tu mente y este no sea lo más nítido posible deberán de verlo con una lente transaparente para que sea lo más claro posible para ti, no te aburmes por cosas que no puedas entender, ocupate en las cosas que puedas gestionar una a una no todo a la vez, porque el que mucho abarca poco aprieta pero dependerá de que tu juicio sea lo más objetivo posible sin necesitadad de ser negativo contigo mismo.

Meet Celestria, the oldest from 8 bewitched sisters. As a master of the shadows, she can blend into darkness and control the night. She can summon and communicate with nocturnal creatures, and her powers are amplified under the cover of darkness. She loves blackberries and rock music.

Alas, I find myself a little late to the start of the party, but when Morgan, the Living Goddess of @inkedgoddesscreations announced the #30DaysofWitchyShit Instagram Challenge, I definitely wanted to participate. Those of you who really know me, have often heard me talk about my love affair with Fluorite, so for #Day1 of this Witchy themed Instagram Challenge, my favorite gemstone is this beneficent beauty. It is a physical healer, an emotional healer, enhances mental clarity, increases Psychic ability, and a beloved among Energy Healing Practitioners. Many thanks to Inked Goddess Creations for this super cool challenge.

Please do ignore the circle around the sigil, it was simply to highlight the final design in my notebook.
Some symbolism if that's what you like:
The cross - conflict
The dot - the heart that it has affect on, that's why it's so close to the interection on the cross (conflict)
The spikes - mountains; the massive weight the conflict puts on you
The wave - pain often comes in waves

Magick in Ancient Greece
Ancient Magick Jan 1 - 7
Topic: Ancient Greece
When: Roughly 700 - 480 B.C.
Where: Southeastern Europe. Mainland is a large peninsula surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea.
Social Classes:
The class system, from highest to lowest, looked like this: male citizens, semi-free labourers, women (belonging to male groups but without rights), children, slaves, and foreigners. These are just broad groups, however. Within the male citizens group, there were many classes. The ‘best people’ were at the top, also called the aristoi. They were the most rich and could provide armor and artillery for themselves with ease. Men typically wore a chilton, which was made of lighter material since they were outside more; usually worn for exercise. These citizens lived a lavish lifestyle, and contained many of the powerful politicians.
Women wore a peplos, being a tunic from heavier material, typically draped over one shoulder. Women were unable to vote and had very few rights, for her main purpose was to take care of the family and children. However in Sparta, they were granted more rights than in Athens. Labourers, lastly, are the second lowest class before slaves. They were semi-free and dependent on their employer. They couldn’t be sold like slaves and often lived with their families. Though it was safer than being a slave, they weren’t granted any real security and were still harshly treated. They worked for most of their lives, and ate what they could.
Magick within Greece:
Magic in Greece contained spells and evil prayers, curse tablets, enhancing drugs and deadly poisons, amulets, and love potions. Magic was practiced by male and females who wanted to help their daily lives. First practitioners of magick were endorsed, and seen as wise holders of secrets and masters of diverse fields, such as mathematics and science. They were also feared, since they were so strongly associated with death and evil. They were impoverished and relied on to survive. Though the public perception of magick isn’t overwhelmingly negative, it is worth mentioning that the death penalty was delivered to a man and his family who were found guilty of harmful magic. Another woman received the death sentence for distributing bewitching drugs. Amulets were a large part of practiced magick. Talismans (bringing luck) and phylacteries (protection) were typically made of wood, bone, stone, and sometimes gemstones, though rarely. Many had inscribings of shapes, such as a phallus, eye, vulva, knots, Egyptian scarab, and a hand making a crude gesture. Many of these amulets are still used today in Greece, typically the evil eye, and Italy, which is typically the cornicello horn. Amulets were worn to cure a physical problem, to win sporting competitions, attract love, keep away evil, or protect the wearer of any bad magic. To make one, one had to invoke the Gods. Amulets were a widely accepted portion of magick, and used by everyone. Curse tablets were used to maintain public order, magic spells continued within Greece after the Egyptians and were used to help physical issues, improve one’s sex life, exorcism, initiation ceremonies, get rid of wild animals in the home, or to make an amulet. Poisons also appear, which used rare herbs and spices and incense from Asia.
Extra: Lesser Known Greek Gods
I know this wasn’t on the sheet, however there are so many gods within the Greek culture, I wanted to explore some further. By no means am I saying these gods aren’t known by anyone, however these are just some that I didn’t know beforehand. Links for more information about these gods will be in the sources section.
The Astra Planeti - Gods of the wandering planets
The Horae - In charge of the seasons, and kept the constellations in line
Aeacus, Minos, and Rhadamanthus - judge those who died and decide upon punishment
Zephyros of the west wind, Euros of the east, Boreas of the north, and Notos of the south - gods of the winds
Nemesis - helped to avenge those who were wronged
The Muses - Clio (History), Urania (Astronomy), Melpomene (Tragedy), Thalia (Comedy), Terpsichore (Dance), Calliope (Epic Poetry), Erato (Love Poetry), Polyhymnia (Songs to the Gods), Euterpe (Lyric Poetry).
The Fates - though known from Hadestown, Hercules, and Percy Jackson, these three Fates (Clotho - spinner, Lachesis - measurer, and Atropos - cutter) decide the destiny of a man’s life. I strongly suggest reading more about these!

Day 3 Jasmyne Ambrosia's 28 Day Witchy Challenge: Create A Home Protection Ward -- except I know better; don't share active wards & protections on the interwebs, kids … Plus, I just redid my wards at New Years. I don't need a new one- or to redo any.
Instead, I used today's prompt to kick me into finally making a Home Blessing I've had an idea for, for nearly a year now; it's based in traditional Mormon Folk Imagery, and Psalms 128 & 129 + Proverbs 21 --- featuring Willow Branch, Fern Leaf, Blackberry, Rose, Bees, and a Beehive that hides the blessing:
🕯️“ Say I: The craving of laziness is eternally fatal, for lazy hands always refuse labor. But diligent hands always lead to abundance; those who are hasty only want.
Happy are those who adore HaShem, and who walk in his ways; you shall eat of the fruit of the labor of your hands, and you shall be happy and prosper. Let your household [then] say to any who attacks you: 'None have prevailed against me yet, for my Lord is a righteous King; may all those who set against me be shamed and turned away'. Then may HaShem bless you in the world to come.
May we see the everlasting prosperity of Olan Ha-Ba. Amein. „🕯️
It took me weeks to complete the piece I did for Adam and Chava, with the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. Given that, I was honestly just going to be happy if I even finalized the sketch today. But I was incredibly surprised how easily (and quickly) this piece came together- and with how little Neuropathy, too.
It still needs color, of course. But I'm beyond happy with it (and with its new home on my fireplace mantle).
This account is run by a Dual Faith «(Converting) Masorti Jew + Traditional NeoWiccan» & «Ancestral Folk Magic Practitioner» with 20+ years of experience as a practicing Pagan and Witch. If that bothers you, don't interact.

Day 11: Altar'd State So I kinda have two work spaces in a way, one I use for candle work, and the other is my little sacred space that is more an altar, I guess. If I'm working on a spell, I have a little artists desk that I pull out and set under my Altar, and if I'm using a candle in it, I burn it near my altar. If I'm just using a candle for a spell or I'm cleansing my space, which is just my entire room cause everything is everywhere, I use my candle work space. Keeping them apart seems to work well for me cause then I know nothings gonna get burnt and energies won't mix that I don't want mixing.
