12.01.2021 How I began the new year: winter morning walks, enjoying the warmth and texture of blankets, reading a lot of books.
Witches. Place magic all around you. Carry a notebook, jot down all the feathers you see as you walk to work. Carry acorns from the oak tree nearest your house and scatter them in the new places you visit. Say hello to the squirrels around you. Pick up rocks that catch your face and place them down somewhere new; they probably get as restless as we do. Find a lucky number and stir your coffee exactly that long every time. Press leaves and sew them into cloth to hang by your window. Paint eyeliner sigils under your clothes. Add rainwater to your tea kettle before you put it on to boil. Burn your candles, your insecurities, your nail clippings, your fears. Sit in the forgotten grassy spots tucked beside graveyards and roadways and the edges around parks.
You exist in a world of wonder. You exist in the place of magic. Your actions are put forth into the world, and you have every right to wear the scorn others throw at you like a first-place medal.

For the past few weeks I’ve been studying Norse Mythology, Norse myths being something I knew nothing about a month ago. My newest tea leaf reading showed what I interpret as Huginn and Muninn, Odins ravens. I was considering working with Odin a few days ago, I suppose seeing his messengers in my divination work could not be any clearer of a sign, eh?
✨ Time to get back into runes learn everything I can about the Allfather ✨

It’s already Samhain here in Korea. Here’s my little set up in the hotel room. I’m trying to make the most of my day until my boyfriend gets off of work. I’ve got a Halloween playlist on, and I’m finishing up CAOS later. Have a great day everyone!
🎃🧡🎃🧡🎃🧡🎃🧡🎃🧡🎃🧡🎃🧡🎃
To all my Pagan and Wicca friends, a very blessed Samhain to you all xx
“This night the veil grows thin and visions and voices of those that have been again can be seen and heard. Listen well to what they tell . Thank them when they’re done.
Remember family and friends. Those that help make us what we are, those that guided us along the way . Those whose footsteps we now walk in .Some day we to shall pass away and on this day will there be those who can hear what we say.
Never forget .
Be safe, be loved and bring truth and happiness where ever you go.
Blessings to you all . Till once again we speak, Remember.”
