This is the month of quiet days, crimson creepers, and blackberries; of mellow afternoons in the ripening garden; of tea under the acacias instead of the too shady beeches; of wood-fires in the library in the chilly evenings.

"Most people treat ancestor work like it's a trade, a transaction: they help us, we give offerings, and that's that. Lord, if that ain't further from the truth. In this work you will meet ancestors who weren't very good in life, who bring to light the sins of your blood, and you will be faced with the task of healing these generational wounds."
- Jake Richards, "Backwoods Witchcraft"
Just a quick reminder since I'm seeing a trend in my recent new followers -
If you are a radfem/gender critic/gender essentialist/TERF, don't support trans rights, think that "witch" is not a gender-neutral term, or believe that magic comes from the womb / only cis-women can be "real" witches, get the fuck off my blog.
Don't follow me, don't ask me questions, I don't care about your journey, I don't care about your reasoning, I'm not interesting in talking to you, I will block you on sight.
This is not a safe space for TERFs. There is nothing for you here.
me a witch, who does tarot, has prophetic dreams, etc when something that i think will happen does in fact happen: oh my god

sorry for seeing the divine in the monstrous. not my fault.
sorry for making the divine monstrous. that one is my fault i take full credit for it.
Witchy and Pagan friends I need your help!
For several years now, I've noticed things in groups of three that are white. Usually cars, but other things too.
My buddy says it's Hekate reaching out.
We also saw a crow fly over my head today (my birthday), which he says is her too. I'm not super familiar with her, so I'm not sure how to interpret.
Any insight would be great!
Do you have any strong desire or calling to work with Hekate?
Because if you do, she is unlikely to reject anyone who comes to her.
Are these signs from her? Nah.
White is the most common car color out there. And though red, white and black are colors associated with Hekate, cars are just incredibly common. Because crows are associated with the Morrigan, people seem to think they also connect with Hekate. But the Morrigan is a battlefield goddess where crows would have been plentiful. Hekate holds the keys to the underworld and is a crossroads goddess. Different symbolism. Her animals are the black dog and the polecat.
Look, everyone needs to up their god game when it comes to signs. These are gods. If they want you to know it's them - you will know.
If you think it's them, you can ask for things that are specific, recognizable and unique, even weird, for confirmation.
And I don't mean pendulums are tarot cards because your own muscles will influence one and the other is open to reading the way you want.
But the best thing to do is probably just to start reading about deities you are already interested in and see if you have enough of an interest to send them a sign.
If you are interested in Hekate - Keeping Her Keys by Cindi Brennan is the easiest book to start exploring. Temple of Hekate by Tara Sanchez suitable for those with a deeper understanding of magical practice.
The world likes to see things in black and white, in moral and immoral. But there is gray in between. And just because a person is capable of wickedness, doesn't mean they will act upon it.

While it’s completely valid and possible to be a Polytheist without digging far too deep into Ancient politics, sociology, and history, I do not just urge you to familiarize yourself with the context of the Gods’ homeland(s) and innate societies They were formed in, but I also warn you that it’s vital you learn to tell apart votive rituals, myths, and political agenda.
Not all that’s old is worth keeping around. Not all that’s old is a votive rite. Not all that’s old is true.
The romanticization of ancient Greek life is…. astounding to me. The Greeks did not live well. In Athens alone, legitimate citizens that were eligible to vote were few, enslavement was commonplace, women were confined to their homes, being left to die either in childbirth or sickness. The people lived in squalor while aristocratic men drank their worth in wine at symposia.
As Hellenic polytheists, we shouldn’t pretend that ancient Greek life was even remotely ideal. What’s more, don’t make the mistake of thinking that antiquity’s oppressive power structures were divinely sanctioned.
Witches! Witchy folks!
Have u ever found a herb perhaps in your yard on in your granny's kitchen and wondered what it's associations were in witchcraft? But when u looked it up u didn't find shit? Well I have just found an amazing website for that!!
Take not this is NOT an ad. I literally just found it and loved it so I share it. Easy.
Here you go: https://www.alchemy-works.com/bulk_herbs_index.html
Maybe the website itself isn't the prettiest, but it has a lot of info on soooo many herbs!
It is safe, do not worry, I wouldn't share if it was dangerous but if anybody had any bad experiences with this please let me know so I can warn others.
And yeah just wanted to share and cya!
You’ve stumbled across a highly respected shop / website in the witchcraft community. Also the place I go to check my basic correspondences. If you’re shopping, his Planetary Scents are particularly popular.
The correspondences on the site are, for the most part, standard Planetary correspondences, which are your starting point in most witchcraft circles. These are traditional and will also show up in works like Culpepers Complete Herbal (for free on Project Gutenberg) Of course, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are more modern additions since the traditional planets would have been the original 7 - Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn. (Yes, the sun and moon both counted as planets and the earth didn’t because these go back that far.)
In some cases, you will find debate over the properties of something but that’s usually when no one can agree on which planet rules it or when more than one planet rules it. (Myrrh is much debated)
