A far sound in the air—fire or rain? And when I’ve cut all the way to the center of the sun I see flowers, flowers, flowers.

Why is it so hard for people to believe that a woman can just prefer being single? I don’t feel more comfortable in a relationship. I prefer being single and having the freedoms that come along with that. I won’t date anyone seriously until I feel like I’ve found someone I can possibly marry. Not every woman enjoys being in relationships. I’m single by choice. TRUST ME I have options but I don’t have any desire to commit at this moment. People need to stop equating single women with loneliness or lack of options as if it can’t possibly be BY CHOICE that they are single.

The mercuric twinkling April air flows in across the desks and laps about my ankles.

things to release on a full moon

fear of change 

searching externally for answers & not searching within

negative energy 

the belief that you’re not good enough

comparing yourself to others

clinging onto things

letting go of the need for approval from others

fear of criticism & judgement

old beliefs that no longer serve you

The Signs as Witchy Aesthetics

Aries casual spirituality, pendulum questions, humming, long walks, the crescent moon, and the smell of lavender 

Taurus small covens, pendants, herb mixes, pennies for good luck, a simple altar, and the smell of chamomile

Gemini a disorganized altar, cheap incense, a hoard of small crystals, dim lighting, electric tea lights, and the smell of vanilla

Cancer mirrors, ouija boards, tarot cards, gifts received, sigils, and the smell of peppermint

Leo everyday divination, self-love spells, seashells, cleansing, sunset, and the smell of basil

Virgo devotion and offerings, an organized altar, candlelight, late-night spells, gems, and the smell of roses

Libra glamour spells, hidden altars, candles, saltwater, the new moon, and the smell of the ocean

Scorpio bonfires, herbal baths, glow in the dark stars, quartz points, smoke, and the smell of cedar

Sagittarius animal skulls, antique tools, the winter solstice, tea, sunrise, and the smell of lotus

Capricorn constellations, amethyst, spirits, astral travel, hexes, and the smell of jasmine

Aquarius an overflowing grimoire, small offerings, the full moon, vervain, simple spells, and the smell of amber

Pisces an altar in every room, meditation, jade, eclipses, energy work, and the smell of frankincense
