Am I the only one who thinks it’s disrespectful for people to do ghost-hunting investigations, constantly goading spirits & their energy signatures to come forward and “prove” they’re there? Especially if they’re in houses / buildings where people may have died there & may have died a terrible death…?

Regardless of the outcome or if you believe or not, you’re disturbing a place where life once was. In some cases, where life ceased to be. The dead don’t need y’all harassing them & making a spectacle of them. Leave them be & leave them at peace. At the very least, if you MUST go into a house / building with lots of paranormal activity for whatever reason, make it clear you come respectfully & honor their space.

The first time he prayed, he was five or six years old. He remembers the wood under his knees and the quiet sounds of others sending their thoughts upward to trusted forces beyond them. He remembers that there weren’t real words in his prayer, just a feeling — a curiosity, a hope. 

If there had been words, they might have been something like, “hello,” or, “is this okay?” or, “is there anybody watching over me?”

Witches, learn to take breaks. ❤️‍🩹

I’m not talking about self-care in life, like resting when you’re tired or taking days off- although those are important, lol.

I mean to take breaks from your craft from time to time.

I did an impromptu break recently and when I did, I felt like the words that left my lips praising Hekate were more genuine, from the heart. No longer routine. I felt like my actions were meaningful, not a part of another thing I just had to do.

She was no longer just an obligation; I had time to reevaluate my connection to her. Through a break I felt like my bond to her was stronger after it. 🖤❤️🤍

If you’re feeling kind of tired of witchcraft, if you’re wanting to focus on other things- that’s okay. You’re a spiritual being having a human experience, after all. Answer that and come back when you’re ready. ❤️‍🔥

Filled with so much gratitude. ❤️🖤🤍

I was in a really dark and confusing place for about a year and a half or so. I didn’t understand what was happening with my mental health. I did everything in my power to do what I could about the situation & take care of myself, but it was a battle every single day. No matter what I did, I struggled immensely.

I trusted in Hekate the entire time I was struggling. I didn’t know what was going on or what was going to happen to me; I was wandering in the dark. I trusted that she would be the twin torches to lead me through and would guide me on the right paths going forward. I had faith everything would eventually be okay one day and that she was protecting me.

It took a long while. I fought long and hard. Suddenly one day I woke up feeling a lot better. I decided to invest time in self-care & mindfulness and practice this daily. I started trying to eat right more often. Started trying to go to the gym more often. And out of nowhere, started waking up with determination, motivation and gratitude each day.

I remind myself there will still be hard days- in the past few weeks there have been. Healing is not linear. But the mindset I’m in has been the most powerful change I’ve been blessed with.

… I’m still not sure what happened, lol. Maybe all that struggle finally accumulated to a breakthrough. For a long time, it felt like I was trying to climb out of a muddy hole. Regardless, I know in my heart that Hekate was walking with me and guiding me every step of the way. Even when I struggled to worship properly at the lunar cycles, even when I was very disconnected- she was there. I am so incredibly blessed and thankful. ❤️🖤🤍

🌞 Blessed Beltane! 🌞

My Cernunnos altar for Beltane 🦌 💚

To celebrate Beltane, I:

-Mailed out Mother’s Day Cards to the wonderful women in my life; the women who gifted me my spiritual ability and potential 💐

-Slow cooked Garlic Butter Steak Bites all day and paired it with veggies for dinner

-Baked a lemon cake as an offering to Cernunnos & Hekate and to share with my partner

-Watered my plants 🪴

A lot of big changes have come about since I last posted. Big steps in personal healing and identity. I’m of course still a very devoted witch and practice regularly, still devoted to Hekate & Cernunnos, but these changes mean that I embrace Beltane with open arms, welcoming the new vitality and vigor that spring brings with both nervousness & hope.

Here is to change 🌹💐🌸
