There’s been a lot of words said about Line 3, at the United States government, specifically in Minnesota at the Minnesota Government, which is all valid but what I’m not hearing, in our communities, among the tribes, is our anger at our own government because I am livid at the tribal councils who willingly sold our land again. Line 3 already exists in our reservations. This is not the first time they have exchanged what is not theirs for something so fucking trivial as money. I am used to the greed of the white men who run the rest of the world. It is not new, and I don’t have any expectations for how low they are willing to go. The shame I feel for my own people, now, is new. We are taught to look ahead 7 generations in everything we do. We are taught to preserve the Earth, that we are Her guardians. We were created to protect her and we are failing. I thought we were better. I thought that we had learned.

I’m opening up my tarot readings for 3 dollars a reading for a 3 card spread, or 10 dollars for a Celtic Cross. I can accept payments through Venmo, PayPal, of Kofi.

Send me a message if you would like a reading.

People sit here and ask me why their spells are so weak when they’re using locally sourced ingredients and when I ask if they gave back as much as they took, the surprise on their face never ceases to surprise me.

So...what is everyone doing for the moon tomorrow?

Is anything ever a mystery? Has this not all happened before? In a dream or tangled up in our own history?

I’m moving to an island and I’m not telling anybody else where it is.

Except for @imaginarywitchcraft but only because I’m taking her with me.

What to do with: Ash Trees Edition

Ash trees are tied to several religions. In Norse mythology, Yggdrasil, the world tree, is an Ash tree. In Celtic mythology, Ash trees are sacred to Lugh, who we celebrate during Lammas. In Greek mythology all the Meliae are said to be Ash nymphs. So in general, different aspects of the Ash tree can be used in such a variety of spells that it’s one of the most versatile ingredient sources there is.

Leaves: Can be used as a replacement for clovers for good luck. And unlike clovers, as long as it has just an even amount of leaflets, it’ll be extra lucky. They can also attract love.

Sleeping with them under your pillow can cause prophetic dreams, or in a bowl filled with water next to you to ward away illness.

Berries: A handful of berries in the cradle of a new babe can keep away the Fae.

Sap: A spoonful of Ash sap before a newborn leaves its mothers bed can ward away illness.

Wood/Bark: Traditionally, witches besoms were made out of Ash and it was a common wood for Druid’s wands. It is strongly linked to healing magic, as well as communication with the Gods.

Wearing a garder with shavings from a green Ash tree can be a powerful protection.

There’s quite a few other uses for Ash out there, that I don’t know, or didn’t list. What are your favorite uses for it?

If you post about people calling you out for your shit, and act like you’re being threatened, when you have literally threatened others, some of whom were underage, you deserve to feel that same fear that those you threatened before felt.

Every action has consequences, you sowed this garden yourself.

When in doubt or if a spell blows up in your face, face north and plant yourself until the storm blows over. 9/10 will get you to a better spot.
