somebody needs to take “romanticize your life” away from the tiktok people. it doesn’t mean “change your life entirely to try and meet some ideal” and it doesn’t mean “try and do as many cool things as possible so you’ll be happy” and it doesn’t mean “present your life to others as though it’s perfect” and it doesn’t mean “try to make your life look as much like someone else’s as possible”

it means YOUR LIFE, WHERE YOU ARE NOW, IS ALREADY GOOD ENOUGH TO BE BEAUTIFUL. it isn’t about waking up early to journal and do a full workout (though if that’s your goal, have at it), it’s about noticing the morning sunshine when you do wake up, and taking a moment to appreciate it. It’s not about completely changing your style to match something you think is the right aesthetic, it’s about remembering to find joy in what you’re already wearing. stop trying to add a sanitized “romance” to your life and revel in the raw, imperfect romance that surrounds you merely because you exist.

SAMHAIN MASTERPOST

When is Samhain? October 31st to November 1st. It is the halfway point between the Autumn equinox and Winter solstice!

What is Samhain? A sabbat marking the end of the harvest and the beginning of the darker half of the year. It is also a time to pay respects to and remember the dead. It is also sometimes called the “Witches New Year.”

Activities to celebrate Samhain may include, but are certainly not limited to:

Taking a nature walk to enjoy the last bits of the harvest season before the cold sets in. 

Decorating your home with seasonal decor and autumnal colors (foods of harvest like corn, acorns, pumpkins etc. make good decor)

Set up an altar to honor your ancestors 

Prepare a nice dinner and set places for those who have passed

Tell stories about those who have passed with shared loved ones 

Visit the cemetery for your own loved ones and for those who do not have anyone left who remember them

Hold a seance

Any type of divination/divinatory guidance

Join the community! No need to celebrate the entirety of the holiday with others as Samhain is probably the most private of all the Sabbats, but hosting or attending a ritual or feast can’t hurt anything.

Foods/Herbs/Spices associated with Samhain:

allspice berries

broom

catnip

mountain ash berries

mugwort

mullein

oak leaves

rosemary

sage

pine cones

straw

corn

turnips

apples

gourds

nuts

mulled Wines

beef

pork

poultry.

I hope you all have an amazing Samhain, and I also hope you are just as excited as I am for the new season!
