The Sun and Queen of Wands

Some of us are glad because we get to go outside and play, and some of us are glad because everybody else has gone outside, so we can finally get some work done.

The Moon reversed and The Fool

You will wander unscathed through the maze of cunning traps and assorted pitfalls, and never even realize it was there.

Being a witch trying to research with books is just like:

"no"

"that's blatant misinformation"

"this guy was exposed as a nazi"

"no"

"that's historically inaccurate"

"this person was exposed as a terf"

"no"

"oh something I can use-"

“Radu wondered if Kumal was capable of cruelty. He hoped so, actually. It gave him hope to think that men like Kumal were the same as everyone else—they simply chose to be better.”

Kiersten White, Bright We Burn

cruelty is so easy. youre not special for choosing it

learning to let go and learning to relax means just freaking sticking those stickers on something. stop worrying if it’s the right place. burn that nice candle you’ve had for a year. it doesn’t need a special occasion. I’m gonna use those fancy soaps I’ve been collecting in a drawer even though they look so pretty and it means I’ll use them up. everything is temporary so just enjoy the littlest pleasures you can possibly have we all need to just let go and enjoy things while they last. the sticker’s gonna look fine on your water bottle I promise

positive affirmations themed around my personal divinities

Hekate:

I am a torch for those around me. I always make good choices, and I always know what path to take. I am a good teacher, and I am free of that which haunts me. I harness the elements around me to their fullest effect. I am wise.

Eris:

I am a force to be reckoned with. I keep going even when things get difficult. I fight for my beliefs after my knife breaks. I always handle erratic circumstances well, and remain positive in chaos. I use upheaval to rebuild my life in a better way.

Erebos:

I am comfortable in emptiness. I am long lasting and strong. I am a good brother and a good partner. I build relationships that are meaningful and last. I am comfortable with cycles, and I know when and where I am needed, and when to stop. I am good at knowing when I need to take a break. I am safe from those who wish me harm.

I think a lot about how we as a culture have turned “forever” into the only acceptable definition of success.

Like… if you open a coffee shop and run it for a while and it makes you happy but then stuff gets too expensive and stressful and you want to do something else so you close it, it’s a “failed” business. If you write a book or two, then decide that you don’t actually want to keep doing that, you’re a “failed” writer. If you marry someone, and that marriage is good for a while, and then stops working and you get divorced, it’s a “failed” marriage.

The only acceptable “win condition” is “you keep doing that thing forever”. A friendship that lasts for a few years but then its time is done and you move on is considered less valuable or not a “real” friendship. A hobby that you do for a while and then are done with is a “phase” - or, alternatively, a “pity” that you don’t do that thing any more. A fandom is “dying” because people have had a lot of fun with it but are now moving on to other things.

I just think that something can be good, and also end, and that thing was still good. And it’s okay to be sad that it ended, too. But the idea that anything that ends is automatically less than this hypothetical eternal state of success… I don’t think that’s doing us any good at all.

gotta love how in 2012 Tumblr, all the replies on even slightly weirdly worded posts and replies were like "oh mY GOD what did I just read" and "THIS ENTIRE WEBSITE IS ON DRUGS" and a long series of Superwholock gifs of people flailing and laying face down on the ground and generally overreacting

and in 2022 someone can just calmly post shit like "off I fuck on my weekly journey into the deep murky woods to snort a line of ants off the Woodland Ghoul's dick" and nobody even comments, they'll just quietly nod like yeah mood and reblog that shit.

Maybe a faint little "yeah that's valid" hiddne quietly in the notes.
