Good morning 💫 Just because you have the energy for things doesn't mean you have to do them all back to back. Besides that theres no requirement to, its also a burnout risk. Planning small breaks between events can help your energy settle & prep for the next surge 🌻

Go read These Violent Nights, I don't care what you usually read, it's easily my fave book since Red Rising and The Bone Clock. LGBTQ+ representation, very tense and fast paced plot, and well done relationship conflict and also romance. The tension is just UNBEARABLE! but in a good way. #booksky 📚🪐

Review of These Violent Nights book, mainly described in the blue sky text above.

Altar prayer card for the goddess Diana. A rectangular card has a black border with parts of the Orphic hymn for Diana surrounding it as a border in white text. In the bottom right are twin arrows over a crescent moon representing her and Apollo. In the bottom left and top right are white outlined 8 point stars. Inside the border is a marble shockwave black and grey pattern with white outlining that forms an arch at the top with lining to look like columns on both sides. In the middle is a stag skull with painted antlers of a diamond and star pattern. Behind the skull are smaller 8 point stars and cloud ripples. Above the skull is a scraggly branch of queen Anne’s lace with small dots above. In the top corners are two constellations for Sirius as her hunting dogs and Roman numerals for 13 and 8 for the date of the Nemoralia festival.

Black and white illustration representing Persephone during the autumn equinox. A frame surrounds the whole thing split in half in black and white. The middle horizontal section is torn in half like a piece of paper representing the division between the above and the underworld. In the bottom right corner are wispy swirling smoke lines going towards the centre with 3 bats flying from right to left. In the bottom left is the symbol for Persephone. In the middle are two pomegranates one whole and one cut in half. In the top half on a black background is a bee in reference to Persephone’s name as “honeyed one” on a circular medallion with narcissus flowers dropping petals around it. In the top left is the Greek word for Persephone

Victorian Ward - Black and white illustration of a Victorian wall with a scarab ward framed. The border of the whole piece is a torn paper. Inside is Victorian black and white striped wallpaper with damask type filigree in the black and smaller stripes and speckles in the white with small vertical black stripes on either side. In the damask pattern are slightly abstract symbols of infinity, an hourglass and other resurrection symbols. In the middle is an ornate rectangular frame framing a large scarab beetle with its wings out. On its wings are celestial symbols like Jupiter, stars and the moon. Around the scarab are peony flowers and branches of a tree branching towards the top left with a vine white line swooping in an out and around the frame in the same direction. The scarabs body is engraved like metal with filigree. Behind the scarab in the frame is grain shading grey over black.

A Stubby Bobtail Squid (Rossia pacifica) sitting on the sea floor eating a fish. The fish is very long and skinny, much longer than the bobtail squid, and its body has been bent into a J shape where the bobtail squid is eating at the bottom of the J. The fish is silvery white with brown and yellow patches. The bobtail squid has the fish its its arms and has a iridescent light yellow colour with dark red.
