Loving without regrets

Loving you was never a regret

It was the silence,

The broken promises,

That snapped the last thread

I had held onto  

The peace I craved

Crashed in waves 

Like the ocean 

On a sandy beach 

I return the silence 

And now live 

Valuing my worth

[thepersonalquotes]

An Epiphany from fear

By Autumn N

Lighting struck

Lightbulb turned on

An epiphany of discovery

I found the root cause

Of the fear that plagues me

I fear abandonment

Because it means something

It means I am unlovable

The true fear

Is I can't be loved

And that's why people leave

Upon knowing this enigma

I also realized it's falsehood

I am loved

I am surrounded by it

I am lovable just as I am

If someone

Can't handle my storms

Then they don't deserve

My field of flowers

[autumnsvoice87]

Suffocating in silence

I suffocate in silence

Consumed by shadows

Voices of Gremlins

Raging demons

Bathing in turmoil

Fear of Abandonment

Fear shattering the calm

Fear tearing apart my self worth

Scared that love is ending

Gremlins and demons

Giving voices to my past

Drowning in insecurity

I'm un-lovable

I'm un-wanted

I'm unworthy

I'm Ugly

I fight the tide

Against these voices

Waves of dysphoria

Beating against my body

The storm ever raging

And then I tire

I let the waves

Take me under

To survive

I Float

To ride the wave

Letting it take me

Letting me feel

The pain that hides

Until light breaks through

To calmer waters

I survived

But the Bees

Still sting.

mabon 🍂

mabon is the pagan celebration of the autumn equinox, or the beginning of autumn. it typically falls between september 21st and 23rd in the northern hemisphere.

it marks the transition into the darker time of the year, when days are shorter and nights are longer. it’s a time for gratitude and to start preparing for the winter by letting go of that which no longer serves us.

ways to celebrate 🍂

mabon is a great time for protection, prosperity, and cleansing. especially related to the home.

do a gratitude ritual

get rid of what no longer serves you, whether physically or more symbolically

hold a mabon dinner with foods of the season.

celebrate persephone and her descent into the underworld

visit a farm or vineyard

make an autumn vision board or playlist (my personal favorite)

redecorate your altar or space in general

forage for herbs, plants, etc.

meditate & reflect on yourself

tend to your garden or plants

spend time outside, observe the seasons changing

Rose Red.

From dusk to dawn

The rose petals fall

One by one

Mother earth's grief

Rose so red

The vibrant color

Calling forth decay

As injustice becomes awake.

[autumnsvoice87]

It's certainly plorable

To be afraid

To be angry

To be grieving

When corruption wins

Over compassion

Being brave

To fight

The war of bigotry

May result in death

However, if we

Do not fight

What future

Do we even have?

May the Old Gods

Be with us

As we raise

Our voices

In battle.

Goddess Hel, divine hostess whose arms lovingly embrace all guests, Watch over those who have crossed your gates against their will. Care for those taken from us and bless them with tranquil rest.

Godx Loki, story-teller and guardian of outcasts, Give words to our sorrow so that we may honor their memories. Breathe air into our lungs so we may bellow our love over hatred.

Goddess Hel, cherisher of life and daughter of metamorphosis, Bestow in their loved ones moments of laughter, healing, and peace. May their names echo not just in sorrow but in smiling remembrance.

Godx Loki, change-bringer and waker of revolution, Spark the flames of unrelenting authenticity within us. Stoke the ember of truth until the hateful are blinded by its light.

Under the cut are the siblings, youth, and elders whose lives were taken due to hatred, bigotry, and fear. I understand it is incredibly triggering, but I believe we owe it to them to read their names.

We love you. We are unendingly sorry and we will never stop fighting until the hatred that stole you from this life has been extinguished. We love you so much.

Decided to do some lgbtq art. The line art was technically done by someone else. She sent me prints of her work, and I glued it on blank atc cards and cut off ecsess. Then I colored in non binary and Trans colors and added some of my own line art to it as well. So it's a combination of 2 artists. I'm non binary myself.

[autumnsvoice87]

I feel this! Let's all pray to our dieties for justice! To battle we go!

Assembly

1. Sew the head to the body. Be sure to only use the back loops of the head when sewing.

2. Sew the body skirt to the bottom of the body around round 5.

3. Using the white felt, create the eyes for underneath the disguise. Needle felt or glue them in place. The direction they face will be the front of the Mimikyu.

4. Sew the tail to the back of the body, just above the body skirt.

5. Using the reserved front loops of the head, sew the body skirt over the body from the neck. The tail should stick out from between the sets of spikes.

6. Using black yarn, create the skirt eyes. Secure them internally with needle felting or glue.

7. Sew the ears on top of the head.

*Use a reference photo for the facial details. Remember, it doesn't have to be perfect, because Mimikyu drew its face itself. Looking messy is part of the appeal. :)

8. Using black embroidery thread, create the eyes by embroidering a messy and jagged circular design.

9. Using coral embroidery thread, create the cheeks by embroidering in a back-and-forth design.

10. Using black yarn, create the zigzag mouth.
