It’s becoming more difficult, as an American and as someone with compassion and anxiety disorders, to find motivation to get through the day. One of my coping mechanisms is to lean harder into my curiosities and interests. My latest thing is keeping Physarum polycephalum, a slime mold.

For the equinox, I gave my #Artemisia arborescens L. ‘Dueparethio’ a bigger pot to stretch her roots. I started this plant as a cutting from outdoors and was surprised when it basically turned into a Wormwood bonsai through the winter. #plantdad #magick #herbalism #paganism #gardening #greenthumb

Evolution of a Scrying Painting (Work in Progress), 2025-2026 . I started painting again this winter. I refer to this technique as “scrying” because the composition comes from visualizations that I encounter in meditation and ritual. This painting is not yet complete. #art #painting #magick #wip
