The lead-up to Summer's End has been busier than expected and filled with twists and surprises. Just a couple more weeks of rampant activity, then things will settle down and we can get back to working on the pages and our offers. (We hope)

I'm looking for some help in the tech department. I've been working on a website, and a membership and I'm not great with all the back-page stuff. 😕 Compensation will be offered!

This summer heat has been killing me! I long for crisp mornings, warm, sunny afternoons, and chilly evenings, faded hues with red and gold overtones, pumpkin spice, and hot apple cider. The scent of woodsmoke and burning leaves. Flannel sheets and electric blankets.

Let me know how Summer has treated you! What are your favorite things about Autumn?

I'm just not doing enough magic for myself these days. Not building up that pressure, that "film" or "coating" that static repulsive shield of charged energy around me and my sacred space.
I've moved homes a lot lately. I was told not to set roots in the last place. I need stability, so these roots are growing, and somebody else is gonna have to fix that later.

So after seeing it in one of the groups I'm in,

I Hearby declare this: Day ONE of 100 days of Witchcraft; a journey into Mindfulness.

So besides my daily tarot, meditation, affirmations, manifestations, gratitude, inspired actions, opening up my receptiveness, stating my desires, journaling, and acts of celebration....
I am charging my aura with strength and protection with a crystal-heart-of-the-Dragon and coffin-nail protection spell.

Sorry, no photo... not everyone on my list or in public wishes me well 🤷 but OMG it smells AMAZING in here... and the power shield begins to grow...

Witch tips out here saying "All you need is salt, olive oil, and rosemary"
"Use birthday candles instead of tapers"
I Swear To All The Old Gods someone said "cut the birthday candles in half, and shape the blunt end to a point, now you have 2!"

Y'all out here asking for lifelong love, unwavering loyalty, and more money than the Royal Family.....But you can't be bothered to put any A$$ behind your spells. Won't spend the money
Won't source the ingredients
Won't take the time
Won't sacrifice anything

You want someone to love you through your ups and downs, through thick and thin, for the next 60 years....
But you ain't got the time to sit with your damn spell for 2 hours a day for the next 10 days. Can't be bothered to focus, to envision, to mold the outcome... to pay f*cking attention to ANYTHING (How the hell are you manifesting if you can't even focus for 5 minutes???) How are you going to keep that kind of loyalty if you can't give them (or your damn spell) your time?

You want to make an obscene amount of money (to help your friends and family, save the environment, protect the animals, or a dozen other vague "feel good" causes... we know...🙄) but you can't afford the good candles and refuse to sacrifice anything to get them. So dollar store here you come, to get the smallest, cheapest, most toxic candles on the market...(ok maybe not THE most toxic...) and then CUT IT IN HALF so you only put a penny or two of energy into your $265,000 salary request. For less than 5 minutes.

And then you wonder why it didn't come
or why it didn't stay
why it wasn't exactly what you asked for...

But you didn't follow the spell
you didn't sit with the work
you didn't spend the time
you didn't focus on anything but vague feelings
You didn't GIVE ANYTHING for the Universe/Spirit/Gods/whatever to f*cking work with!
It doesn't have the ENERGY
It doesn't have the proper VIBRATION

It's like giving a handyman one screwdriver and a hammer and expecting him to build a whole damn house!

Rosemary, oil, and salt do not feel much like a fulfilling career
2 minutes of lead based wick and cheap wax doesn't feel much like loyalty and compassion
miniature candles and dollar store decor don't feel like a romantic getaway

DO BETTER

***!!!!~ I am NOT saying you have to have a bunch of expensive crap. I am not saying you can't get some decent things at the dollar stores. I am not saying that, in a pinch, these things won't work for short-term or small, emergent needs.
What I AM saying is... if you can't do it exactly... RESEARCH what you can't get and put some real damn effort into replicating the vibration of the missing piece. It's easier to make an O of something already shaped like a C, than something shaped like an M. It's easier to get love from a tame dog than a rabid badger.

If we're all using half a white birthday candle, rosemary and olive oil, it's like making the universe be that handyman... trying to turn that M into an O with nothing but a screwdriver...
