My version of paganism and witchcraft is saying good morning to the sun and a giving the moon a goodnight kiss. It’s thanking the earth for providing. It’s being as gentle as I can with the planet we’ve been given (it’s our only one yall please). It’s collecting rocks and shells from the ocean and rivers. Paganism has never been about forcing yourself into a box. No religion should ever be that way.

Orpheus always turns around because, yes, you would too if you literally crawled through the underworld to get Eurydice back; BUT! Also because people don’t come back from the dead and storytelling is and always has been a way to process emotions.

Orpheus and Eurydice are the exploration of grief so strong you’d go to hell and back to save the person you lost and the gutting realization that it doesn’t matter how hard you try, people don’t come back from death
