Eighth Generation is what modern Native American design looks like without cultural appropriation 

Louie Gong describes his company, Eighth Generation, as “a Native-owned, community-engaged small business that began when I started putting cultural art on shoes.” It’s true, in 2008, Gong began decorating sneakers and skateboarding apparel with indigenous Nooksack patterns — a move that, as a Nooksack himself, set him apart from the non-Native designers who’d been doing so for years. As demand grew, so did Gong’s ambition.

Here you go, kids!

How to procure Native-American-and-First-Nation-themed items without entitlement or cultural appropriation in one easy step.

BUY THE THINGS DIRECTLY FROM THE PEOPLE THEMSELVES.

Because if they’re selling these representations of their culture and being fairly compensated, you’re not appropriating, you’re appreciating. And helping good folks make a living while you’re at it.

Everybody wins.

[sinistershit]

^^^this is the difference. participate in the parts of culture that people CONSENT to sharing!! it’s that simple, if you buy directly from the source, they are creating with the idea that people outside the culture will be consuming, and can pick and choose what they are okay with you having. 

the same idea as wearing traditional dress that someone of that culture gave you as a present vs. buying a knockoff version for “fashion”

[notallfay]

I’ve used this argument for a long time as a difference between appropriation and appreciation. If you are buying directly from the people of that culture you are supporting them in keeping certain practices and talents alive. They are choosing what they share while making a living from their work. You are supporting them, while enjoying their culture. This is not only okay but it can really help people from these communities.

With appropriation, you are taking money away from the people. While mocking everything they stand for, and giving money to big companies who only care about profit, and have no understanding of the people they are stealing from.

The worst part of Pride each year is riding the subway late at night and seeing the gay guys, mostly the ones riding by themselves, slowly take off their rainbow stickers and beads and what-not in preparation for their walk alone in their neighborhood, doing their best to prevent the off-chance of being jumped. I saw one guy with a flag in his bag turn it upside down so it wouldn’t poke out.

So yeah, fuck that heterosexual pride day nonsense.

[drarryking]

This is the saddest god damn thing I’ve read in awhile, mostly because I literally remember peeling my stickers off on my way home too for this reason 

[autumn-rains-give-me-life]

Two years ago in Budapest the organizers didn’t let anyone leave the place until we dropped all the rainbow flags into the trash cans and popped out the balloons, because people were waiting outside the cordons to get and beat us. Sadly the situation was so bad that even without the flags, we couldn’t leave for a good two hours after the event anyway. There were hundreds of people just waiting to be able to get home safely, but we simply couldn’t walk out of the place because of those assholes. In the end, the police made us leave in smaller groups via subway. They closed down the stations closest to ours, so we could avoid running into the people waiting us outside. This was in Budapest, in Europe, 2014. I hate this world we live in.

[thisisarebeljyn]

And this is why #heterosexualpride makes me so angry.

[peujeune]

I know this kid who was leaving Pride, trying so badly to rub off the rainbow paint on his cheek because his dad was abusive and didn’t know he was gay or at pride. I was on the bus with him and he was close to tears, he cheek red, and I had my make up bag and there was a packet of wet wipes, so I went up and sat next to him and helped him rub it off. We’ve been best friends ever since.

Heterosexual pride my ass

[sadtastical]

This is so fucking important. There are way too many human beings that are so ashamed of who they are because people just can’t accept diversity and it’s so sad. you can’t be fucking butt hurt when people celebrate minorities and people that have been suppressed, rather than groups that are wildly accepted and loved. Don’t try and take away from someone’s fucking happiness. Check. Your. Fucking. Privilege.

[byegods-blog]

Advice to the witch children: 1. Step softly. 2. Coat your words in honey, but keep your nails as claws. 3. Listen to the ghosts. 4. Carry always a bird in your chest and a lion in your head. 5. Know that age is not wisdom, and there is as much to be learned from trees as from the books they become. 6. You are not born with a family. Make one. 7. Remember that a thing does not need purpose to have beauty. 8. Do not allow yourself to become chained to logic and order. 9. Revel in chaos, then bend it to your will. 10. Use your wide eyes for watching, your rabbit feet for running, your small size for slipping away unseen. 11. Let them underestimate you. 12. When you open your mouth and frogs leap out, do not be ashamed. 13. You are the changeling children, magic born into small bodies with untried hearts. Do not waste them.

Solar Eclipse - August 21st 2017

Of course I can! Let’s dive right into it! (Warning: This will be a long post)

So this moon has a lot of crazy stuff going on. First off, it will be happening on August 21st 2017, and it is a total solar eclipse of the sun and moon both in Leo and black moon. 

So what exactly is happening? What makes this one so special? Well my friends this is a total solar eclipse! The moon will completely cover the sun on this day for approximately 2-2.5 minutes. The last total solar eclipse was June 8, 1918… a whopping 99 years ago! These are not a casual occurrence. 

Who can see it? Everyone in North America plus parts of South America, Europe, and Africa will see at least a partial solar eclipse! The total eclipse will past from Oregon to South Carolina. Here is a representation of the path of totality, or the Moon’s umbral shadow, according to NASA!

(Times from here)

Now that’s pretty cool right? But for us witches and astrology enthusiasts alike, there’s another awesome detail. This eclipse is between a sun and moon both in Leo! Not only that, but we also have Mars in Leo as well, allowing for a great deal of passion to accumulate for this event. 

The sun and moon together will create a trine (or create a triangle/be about 120 degrees apart) with Saturn and Uranus. A trine symbolizes three planets supporting one another! With Saturn in Sagittarius promoting balance and growth in a disciplined manner, we seek long term experience and wisdom. Saturn takes its time, allowing us to really soak in this eclipse for the coming months or even years. On the other hand, Uranus is in Aries, encourages revolution and new innovation. Generally, when Uranus transits trine Sun, there is little that can be negative. Now is the prime time to plunge into new territory with courage. 

Below is the astrology chart for the Solar Eclipse!

Solar eclipses also cause this really cool thing called the Allais Effect. This may bring along a sense of stillness or uncertainty, and supposedly pendulums will swing strangely. This deals with an interesting gravitational phenomenon! Try to stay in tune with your senses and see if you feel anything interesting.

Eclipses bring about change, intense transformation, and renewal. This is a great time to work with the darker parts of ourselves to allow a brighter self to shine, so one can also do some shadow work, binding/cursing, spirit work and self reflection. Do whatever you must do to leave darkness behind.

Leo Sun and New Moon are a great time for self-empowerment, self-esteem, starting something new, and taking the reins on your own life and gaining control. More about the astrological aspects above.

Black Moons are similar to New Moons as they are great for banishing, cleansing, renewal, cursing, and planting the seed for whatever you want to grow in your life, except this moon will be an enhanced version of that with more focus on our own shadows and negativity as well as binding, banishing, and renewal. Embrace your darkness so that you can unlock strengths.

Overall, I’d say this event will be amazing for some self renewal and major banishment of negativity.

Spells and Other Ideas:

🌑 Addiction Spells

🌑 Major Healing Spells

🌑 Any Curses/Hexes/Bindings/Banishing

🌑 Any Spells for Change

🌑 Eclipse Water

🌑 Black Moon Water

🌑 Self Dedications or Initiations

🌑 Begin a Journal

🌑 Illumination through Divination

🌑 Spells to Uncover Secrets

🌑 Charge Crystals and Cleanse Tools

🌑 Connect with Spirits

🌑 Rituals for the Sun and Moon Simultaneously

🌑 Spells to Cut Out Negative People

🌑 Initiating Faerie Contact

🌑 Spells for New Projects

🌑 Energy Work

TL;DR - Literally this eclipse is screaming for change. Change something, anything, everything. This calls for self revolution. 

Happy solar eclipse and black moon!

Remember, if you are going to watch the eclipse, wear proper eclipse viewing glasses. Only during the full totality itself can you remove them. IF YOU ARE UNSURE, THEN DO NOT REMOVE THEM AT ALL. I would suggest only removing them if you are in a designated place specifically for viewing with a professional. Stay safe!
