Having Strange Dreams

It has been a nightmare the last few months. If anyone can send some good vibes that would be wonderful~ Sorry I have been away for so long, it seems like my hardships are unwavering at the moment.

I have been having incredibly vivid dreams, a little more often than usual. I don't know what could have triggered them to appear so frequently, but they are warning me of things in my life that I have no control over.

Some of these dreams are sad, erotic, or confusing but I understand them through the context of reality. I am not a self-proclaimed psychic, and most of the time I do not think there is any real way of seeing into the future, but I believe that we use a sixth sense or third eyes to reveal untold truths.

These truths are revealing themselves to me in my sleep. And, unfortunately, they are not things that I am happy to know about. It is making me feel a certain way about the people that I work with, talk with, or even people I experience on the daily. I'm realizing that I am pulling away from reality because I don't want to deal with the cruelties of truth.

Moral of the story:

I long to be myself, but there is nothing in this world that will permit me to be just that. Not unless I entail a life all my own without having anyone be a part of my life whatsoever, as sad as it sounds.

My life feels governed by the people that I let in and things just don't go the way I would like them to. So, in desperate need of releasing the angry beast within, I will be alone for now. No more truths to find, just looking inward from here on for a little while.

Note:

I am doing fine, just overthinking is all. These dreams and situations I'm going through is driving me mad for the time being and I really just need time to figure out what's going on. I'm a little at war with myself and the world and it's something I really need to sit on, meditate about, and journal.

sometimes just a glass of water is an offering. Sometimes just saying a deity’s name is an offering. Sometimes laughing or crying or letting yourself feel what you need to feel is an offering. Sometimes just existing is an offering. Not everything has to be a big, grand gesture. The gods understand so much more than we think they do. They’ve existed for eons, have had thousands, if not millions, of people pray to them and offer to them and become their devotees. Would they really curse one person, out of all these worshippers, for simply trying their hardest? Have more faith in them.

There are times when you think you can’t keep your head on your shoulders. When you feel like giving up because there’s so much negativity in the world bringing you down.

But you have so much internal power waiting to be awakened. Find what makes you tick and you’ll learn that everything will be okay. Just keep pushing yourself and keep your head high.

Hello everyone! Long time no see~ currently doing a little better but still trying to hang on at least until some rescue funds are available. Been having to cut things extremely cheap for food, so I thought I’d put some of my crafting skills to good use and start an Etsy for jewelry, artwork, and more!

Please go check it out~ I only have one listing so far but I do plan to make more in the coming weeks, some I plan to make witchy~

Ooo sounds so good!

WITCHY SAGE BUTTER ROLLS

These things are really like garlic rolls meet cinnamon rolls but with delicious sage butter!

They are perfect if you have a little extra time on your hands, and can be served alone or with a dinner, stew, or any type of soup and it pairs pretty well.

Quite the crowd pleaser ^_^

INGREDIENTS

For the Tangzhong:

2 tablespoons  bread flour

2 tablespoons water

4 tablespoons whole milk

For the Bread:

4 cups Bread flour

4 tbsp sugar

1/3 cup milk

A full packet of Instant Dry Yeast

2 large eggs

Half a stick of Salted butter

For the Egg Wash:

1 large egg

1 tbsp water

For the Sage Butter:

7 tbsp Salted butter

1 tsp garlic salt

2 tsp ground sage

1 tsp thyme

2 cloves minced garlic

DIRECTIONS:

Heat the Tangzhong ingredients over medium heat until they become very thick, about the consistency of a very thick brownie batter. It should be congealed enough so that it doesn't slide off the spatula very easily. This should take no longer than 5 minutes. Let it cool down completely (If you add it in hot, you will risk killing the yeast and the bread will not rise.

(What is Tangzhong?) Its a mixture of flour, milk, water that really steps up your game when it comes to the fluffiness of the rolls. Once you try adding this to your basic breads, you wont go back!

Bloom yeast in warm milk (Put in the microwave for about 15 seconds, it should be lukewarm, not hot. Add Flour, salt, and sugar into a stand mixer with the dough hook attachment.

Crack egg and milk into the yeast and with the stand mixer’s dough hook attachment, mix into the flour mixture. Add in Tangzhong. Add butter 1 tablespoon at a time and mix until the dough is elastic. Then mix for another 5 minutes. If the dough looks too dry, add a tablespoon of water, and repeat until smooth. If it is too liquidy, add a couple pinches of flour.

Put the bread dough in a lightly greased medium bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise at room temperature for 2 hours. In the meantime, make your sage butter by beating your salted butter, garlic, and herbs.

Flour the workspace and roll the dough flat to about 1/4 inch thick. Smear all of your butter mixture onto the dough. Roll as you would a cinnamon roll, from the widest side of the rectangle to the other side.

Cover for 2 more hours for them to proof. Then combine egg and water to form your egg wash and brush it onto the rolls briefly before putting it in the oven. Put in the oven at 350 F for 25 minutes or until golden brown.

Enjoy!

Journal - 06/06/2023

So to start this out, I will be going on a little bit of a hiatus. Things have not been going too well and there are a lot of things I need to set aside and reorganize.

Me and my life partner has been struggling with money and we’re trying to figure out how to pay off our debt. It's been lonely, exhausting, and has been wearing on both of us mentally and even physically.

My Patreon will remain open to the public for days that I will want to post something, but I will not have the tiers available for those looking to join on a monthly basis (this means no tarot readings will be available either, personal and monthly). I will do my best to stay active here but it's looking more and more unlikely that I will be able to keep up weekly in the next few months.

Part of my reorganization journey will include taking a break from college, as recent events have stressed me enough to the breaking point that I can barely keep up. Eventually, I will rejoin for the next semester but I don't know when that will be, I'm hoping by then that I will have enough time to take more classes and earn my degree quicker.

Anyway, I really hope that all you witches and beautiful creatures are doing great and have had a great start to your Summer (or Winter for the Southern Hemisphere). I'm wishing that all of you have a wonderful day and I will see you all when I am more mentally prepared and having a better time in life.

I will still stream live here every now and then so keep a lookout for that if you're interested.~

Thank you all for being here,

RaveMey

This looked like fun and it's something to get me posting again!

What is your goal for your craft this week?

My goal for my craft this week is do something about the negative energy affecting me in my apartment, with the moon waning and leading up to the New Moon, I will make a plan to salt the corners of each room, burn sage or cinnamon incense, and place sigils.

2. What herbs do you feel most connected? Why?

This is a difficult question for me to answer but I would say the herb that I use the most and connect with is lavender. I love the healing and relaxation properties it has. I like to place lavender in my tea at night to help me sleep, I love to wear lavender scented fragrances and sprays as it helps me remain clear minded throughout my day in the stressful work environment I encounter.

3. Have you researched anything new recently?

I have been going over some of the basic history of witchcraft as of late as I don't believe I touched on it long enough in the past.

4. What would you like to research soon?

I have a wide variety of areas that I would soon like to research including shadow working, scrying, Celtic witchcraft, Druidry, and would also like to touch a little on my Slavic heritage and what the Slovene people had done in the past.

5. What spellwork, if any, have you done recently? Did it work?

I have the worst time sleeping and, as of late, barely remember my dreams upon waking. Some spellwork I have recently done is as simple as meditation down to the way I lay in my bed and the focusing my mind on the meditation itself to help get well rested and to remember my dreams. Since this month has been wearing on me, I may perform my dream charm bag spell again, as it worked a very long time up until I lost it in the move last year.

6. If it didn't, why do you think so? What do you think you would do differently if you tried again?

With this meditation I perform, I often times don't complete the full meditation and just fall asleep, feeling my body suddenly relax and then I jerk back awake. I would do something differently by adding different components to my tea before bed and probably find a different position to lay or may even try sitting up so I don't fall asleep during the meditation.
