I’ve been tending to some of the hard work around here lately, the work that isn’t pretty or pleasant, the shadow work that we must consistently touch in order to move forward. It’s important to do but not very instagrammable, so bear with me! That said, tarot readings are still available! $25 for a PDF reading sent by email. DM me to chat. I’m enjoying the cards but they are snarky these days, so beware. 🌓🍂🍁 . . . #tarotreadersofinstagram #themoontarot #wtflobster #tarot #witchesofinstagram #shadowwork #seasonoflettinggo

Tonight’s frost warning encouraged me to chop a mess o’tulsi and lemon balm! I’m aiming to start a batch of mead with these heartwarming, soothing friends tonight while the temperature drops. #tulsi #herbalist #asheville #frostwarning #lemonbalm #sweetmelissa #meadmaking #alewife #hedgewitch #plantwitch #happyautumn

My kitchen windowsill is a special place where I stick special friends, tiny strange things, rocks and a few plants - new to the arrangement are air plants! I have been nervously fussing over these two plants living in the snail shell. I’ve been spritzing them daily and soaking the Tillandsia Bulbosa weekly. The other one whose name I cannot recall, doesn’t like soakings. I am a newbie so really appreciate the how-to guides that care with these guys in my @airplant.gardens boxes! If you want to get air plant friends in the mail, check my bio for a 50% off code to give them a try. https://ift.tt/36ZpuYG I hope that I keep these guys as bright and healthy as I can - got any air plant care tips for me? #airplants #kitchenwindow #unicorn #faecore #cottagecore #airplantsofinstagram #snailshell #airplantdecor #airplantlove

Today’s omen - sprouting acorns. We moved this little one from a path to a nice spot where we’d welcome the eventual shade of a towering oak. This little acorn made me reflect on resilience and fortitude, on acceptance of the seasonal shifts, and my tiny place in the magnitude of time and the universe beyond time. Pretty heavy for a morning stroll. Time for more coffee. #acorn #plantenergetics #oak #hedgewitch #listentothetrees #deepthoughts #seeds

Good morning to you from the little troll dude who lives in my houseplants. He’s currently chilling in the peace lily and pothos pot at my work desk, to remind me to enjoy myself while my nose is to the grindstone. He has been with us for years but not given his name, but he’s beloved nonetheless. #houseplansofinstagram #creaturesthatliveinmyhouse #fae #trollkin #trolls #plantwitch #faerie

The tulsi plant so often torn up by the persistent hens this year is still going strong. It’s rather hydra-like, as it seems to sprout two flowers for every one I trim! So far, we have dried some, tinctures a big jar of fresh tulsi in vodka, and now infused honey. After it is strained, I might pour it over yet more fresh flowers for a double infusion! #infusedhoney #tulsi #honey #electuary #preservingtheharvest #herbalremedy #sweetmedicine #honeymagic

Good morning, sunshine! Last night’s full moon was a doozy - a big unblocking of energy and a release of anxiety. We all slept so much better last night than we have in weeks. Much needed to soothe jangled nerves and furrowed brows! The flowers in my yard are all shouting their final hoorays as the mornings get more chill and the nights longer. The marigolds are exploding in the sunlight and the moonflowers unwinding in their late night burlesques, while the red and yellow leaves fall from the trees like confetti and sparkling seed heads blow like fluffy glitter on the cool breeze. #fullmoon #calendula #autumn #welcomeoctober #rabbitrabbit #halloweenmonth #october #hedgewitch

A pot of tea made from a walk around the yard - fresh tulsi, a single red rose, and a few overripe blueberries left over from Alia’s lunch. It was delightful with a bit of lemon-infused honey stirred in! Tulsi has been a lovely addition to our garden. It helps with the tempestuous moods of my Gemini partner and toddler and soothes my jangled nerves. We have tincture brewing, some drying for tea, and some tulsi-flower infused honey working, too! #wildcrafting #tea #herbaltea #herbsforanxiety #anxietyrelief #cottagecore #herbalism #tulsi #rose #bedtimetea

Hello friends! You’ve likely noticed I’m not on here much, and most of my posts are coming from Instagram. I love you all and the community here around Pixie’s Pocket but I am not fond of Facebook very much these days. Please bear with me if it takes a bit for me to get to messages or comments - and if y’all need me, you can reach me by email at [email protected] 🧚🏻‍♀️♥️

My “grocery store” rose was a wee, sick little thing when I rescued her from the discount rack four years ago. She lived in a pot for a year and has been in ground for three. She blooms constantly, with gorgeous, beautifully aromatic flowers. She reaches to my waist now and will likely be taller than me next year if she keeps it up! 😍 In fact, most of the rose-related recipes you’ll find me posting are from this plant. I call her the Red Queen but have no idea what exact type of rose she is. #rose #discountplants #rescueplant #redroses #offwiththeirheads #redqueen #paintingtherosesred

Oh, late September strawberry - you are hope incarnate, hope against your better sense. It is not spring, and the winds are arcing cold and wet. The bony fingers of October frosts stretch to caress your tender leaves - they and I both seek to touch the potential energy swelling within you and shake heads sadly at your imminent demise. #gothgardening #doomedplant #strawberry #fallgarden #everbearingstrawberries #autumnflowers #autumnfruits
