A little witchy calendar to look forward to next year, since this one was a little bit.. cursed.

This lets you know about the full moons, new moons, wheel of the year celebrations and zodiac entrys, I hope you can use this to aid you on your practice.

Dreams About My Daughter

4:30 am

My dreams woke me up. In one I dreamed my 2 kids and husband were walking down a long wooden staircase to the beach. My younger daughter was talking about jumping over the side and I said, “Don’t you dare.” Meanwhile, my older daughter jumped. She fell a very long way and landed on her back on branches and leaves. When we got to her she said she’d hurt her foot so I got some wet paper towels to wrap it in but she’d already done that. I said she should walk in the ocean to keep down the swelling and we started to argue about how dumb it was to jump. So she ran a bit away and was talking about me but I could hear everything so I went to here and said that if she was going to talk about me behind my back she could at least go far enough away so I couldn’t hear every word.

 Then I had another dream but at the same location I think. In this one I was wearing a black vestment coat like a priest. She was going to paint designs on the two long strips of fabric that hung over my shoulders down the back.  So she was standing behind me and I was saying I hadn’t decided what to get yet but was leaning towards a pentagram in white paint the size of my hand in the center back.

But I didn’t know she’s already started painting and when I held the garment in front me she’d painted a lot of random stuff. She had some white dots and exes for stars, which made sense. But she also had a ¾ view of ruby red lips and white teeth. I said, “What’s this? Now people will think I’m a dentist.” There was also the triple moon symbol. I didn’t want to be too harsh and judge her art though so I didn’t say anything else. I wish I could remember what other symbols she painted.

379

I had a recurring dream last night that the number 379 had the power to heal me..

August Halloween Challenge Day Six

I’m not sure if I posted for Day Five or not but on that day I did knit some on my green pumpkin.

Today I went wand hunting at the park and came home with an Elm wand that was on the ground. It has a little nub that fits in my hand pretty well. I’m not sure if I will decorate it or not or just hold it in my hand and get to know it. I have copper wire right here so maybe I’ll wrap it in wire. 

Then most recently I tried to finish my jute and cotton basket. Sometimes the middle of a project just drags on. 

I need to remember to look for pine needles next time I go to the library. Behind the library is a whole row of pine trees along the fence of the botanical garden. They don’t groom that side of the fence. It’s just a dirt road. They may be too dusty to use but it is worth looking.

A Wolf Dream

I had an epic dream about wolves in my yard, then in my house.  Then later I was taking my checkbook out of purse and realized the cover art (which I haven’t paid attention to in years) is two wolves.

I had looked up on the internet the meaning of wolf spirit guides and a lot of it applies to me, because it’s about trust issues.

For Day 4 of the Halloween in August challenge I started knitting a green pumpkin. As I was working on this ribbing, I thought what a lovely hat it would make too. I see a green hat in my future.

Letting Go

There is so much groupthink right now it is hard to know my own mind. I’ve found my most reliable way to do that is through self-hypnosis and meditation. I have to chill out enough to hear my inner voice and connect to source energy.

If you are trying to take all the problems of the world upon your back, you won’t last long. You are not in charge of the divine unfolding of the universe.

So I take deep breaths whenever I have a chance (several times a day), and I remember I am just a grain of sand and don’t have to solve all the world’s problems. I refuse to be stressed out all the time just because the vast majority of people have chosen that path.

I Knitted a Pumpkin

On day three of my Halloween in August challenge I finished the first knitted pumpkin I ever made in my life and I love it. I wish I had more of this yarn but it was an odd ball. I lost the band long ago so I don’t know how to order more but if you recognize it, speak up. I want to make more because I think they look better in groupings.

I Knitted a Pumpkin Top View

Here is another view of the pumpkin I knitted. Both the pumpkin and the stem are ribbing made on size 8 straight needles.

Time to rest my hands but this is what the basket looks like so far.
