I have been working on a project that requires responses from a variety of subjects that work with Cernunnos, with a particular focus on Otherkin/Incarnate/Nonhuman/etc. practitioners! I go more in depth on the premise and my end goal in the introductory text at the very top of the linked survey.

I'm not on here very often but my wife and I made solstice lanterns last night to celebrate! #wintersolstice #witchsky
A picture of two jars covered in tissue paper with tea light candles inside. The taller jar is covered in torn red, blue, and green tissue paper arranged in a mosaic pattern. The center is exposed to show a snowflake pattern in the glass. The second jar is round and covered in strips of green tissue paper covering the entire jar

Black and white photo of a car from the early 1900s with a large stag sticking his nose into an open window to a person inside. The text reads, "Excuse me, Sir... Do you have a moment to hear the word of Cernunnos?"

But hey, if anyone is interested in a book on Cernunnos through the lens of various worshipers and devotees with a special focus on those that are Otherkin or otherwise Nonhuman let me know?? I could use some more people to interview.

The Vixen Witch @thevixenwitch.bsky.social · 22/03/2025
All presented with historical context, of course, which I know how to research and source, so is that really all there is to it?? Not like I'm looking to professionally publish or anything, and it has a central focus that would probably be off-putting to most readers haha

Well, my next essay concept has become a full book outline... I'm wondering if I have enough knowledge to write a full book? But it's intended to be a collaborative community piece featuring predominantly information from practices I interview, basically just heavy UPG.

A screenshot of a tumblr post from url drchucktingle aka author Chuck Tingle. Transcript: THE ULTIMATE PAINTER
ai art is like being a runner and youre excited for a marathon and youre training and then someone comes up and says 'why not use this new 'car tech' it can drive you to the finish line and youll have run the marathon without that pesky running'. then theyre confused when you say no and run instead
its just this really strange fundamental misunderstanding of art and expression. the bizarre idea (usually from those without the capacity to find their own inner artist) thinking THE ULTIMATE PAINTER would no longer have to paint but instead have a room full of finished works
010
The Vixen Witch @thevixenwitch.bsky.social · 11/03/2025
Not to mention the blatant disrespect it shows to artists, and to the divine act of creation in general. Using AI in witchcraft or paganism is an insult.

The Vixen Witch @thevixenwitch.bsky.social · 11/03/2025
It is particularly unnerving to find witchcraft books with AI generated cover "art" these days. I don't expect much from big bookstores like B&N, but I feel like I should be able to expect more from the community. AI covers bring the validity of everything written within into question.

Very neat! I’ve been trying to build a family tree for some time now but that connection is on my paternal side and we haven’t been able to find anything beyond his grandfather. My maternal side I could trace back to Kent in the 1100s I believe. Just public record stuff

I'm learning about Druidry, and particularly plan to use the ADF's resources for deeper study, but I've gotten a wide variety of sources to learn about mythologies and see what resonates with me. Particularly excited for one regarding Gaulish Celtic Polytheism- Ancient Fire by Segomâros Widugeni

12. hey can you hand me my knife? No that's the sex knife. No, that's the sex knife without an edge. Nope, that's the ritual knife that must not cut flesh. Also no, that's the ritual sex knife- why are you looking at me like that
Four knives, from left to right: a Bowie knife made by a friend; the asexual flag is embedded into the handle and made from compressed mica. A blunt folding knife with a black blade; when the blade is flipped out the cross guard makes a Celtic cross. A small dirk with a brass endcap; a pagan friend in college gave it to me years ago. A knife blacksmithed out of a railroad spike; its handle is blackened and twisted.

Sticking with the theme of #owls Owls are my favourite and I've always loved drawing them. I also associate them with Nemetona Goddess of the Sacred Grove. #mixedmedia #art #ArtYear #whimsicalart #witchyartist #witch #pagan #druid #celticgoddess #owlmagic #artismagic
A photo of my painting of a stylised, quirky, whimsical Barn owl. The owl has a small pair of antlers. On her chest is a Celtic Labyrinth design. The colour palette is shades of blue grey, with patches of salmon pink. I tried to keep the colour of the owl similar to the real owl in soft grey and many yellow. Abstract mark making suggesting the pattern on the wings. Leafy doodles extend out from the sides of the owl. More abstract mark making around the edges of the paper. A few patches of gold leaf dotted around.

We as consumers need to hold our communities to some kind of standard, and I for one find that my standard is a certain level of authenticity. Not everyone selling metaphysical tools and supplies is trying to scam someone, but there are bad actors everywhere.

This is made even worse if the events are all over $20. Especially if this store is the only option in your area for these things! Instead of providing a service, they could be focused on cornering the market.

This is entirely dependent on the individual store. - A big one I’d like to end on; they only host paid classes and services with no way for under-served members of the community to attend or participate.
