So, the plan was to select a curated group of 3-4 decks to do a comparative deep dive of each card. I may have gotten carried away. #tarotsky #witchsky #pagansky #tarot #tarotdeck #tarotcollection
A collection of various tarot decks, all topped by their respective Star cards.

Tarot hottake: if you keep trying to start a tarot study but bog down in the Majors somewhere around the Lovers, quit doing that and go study the Minors. I just took four pages of notes on the Ace of Cups and I suspect I'm not done. I'm hooked. #tarotsky #witchsky #pagansky

New deep dive into the Suit of Cups, using a multideck approach to build up a picture of the card and accompanying Oracle decks to bring out certain aspects of each card. Tarot decks include -Borderless RWS -Wildwood -Wooden Tarot -Midnight Magic Oracles -SotW Imbolc Oracle -Earthbound Oracle
A black table with multiple tarot decks lined up each one faced by the Ace of Cups. To one side is the SotW Imbolc Oracle and the Earthbound Oracle. There is a mug of pens, a ceramic moon box and several crystals, and a few tarot books on a shelf

The caption made me cackle. The news just makes me go WTF. Nobody wants this except the orange one.

I think that's a glorious oops. My plan right now is to buy them for every holiday until I have the whole set, and then go back through and buy the seasonal tarot decks by season.

I need a cartoon series about the Baronet of Bunny, wrestling icon, in which he is an actual rabbit but everyone else is people and him being a giant rabbit is only ever referred to obliquely, like everyone knows it's weird but nobody wants to say anything in case the Baronet himself doesn't know.

I am extremely into Bigfoot. Not like in a "does he really for a fact exist" sort of a way but in like a "I think he's super cute and I like making up backstory and silly facts about my tiny plush Bigfoot I named Gerald" kind of a way. Here he is with his tote and the hat I knit him. #Bigfoot #yeti

I'm for it. How would it differentiate from wands? I'm intrigued.

Imbolc is THE holy day of the year for me, so finding a tool that specifically honors what is one of the most sacred times of the year--in a way that resonates with me, too--in my practice is incredible. I genuinely can't say enough about how excited I am to use this deck. #seasonsofthewitch

This is, truly, one of the best things I've ever gotten for my practice. The artwork is lovely and so rich, the cardstock perfect, the card size nice and big without being too big, the gilding so beautiful it made me gasp, and I'm very excited to dive into the book. #pagansky #druidsky #witchsky

Exploring the stories of the Cailleach is feeding a part of my soul that has been hungry for a long time. I don't know yet how she will fit into my practice, but I am deeply fascinated. #pagansky #witchsky #celticpaganism #crone #goddess

It's my birthday, and I'm 39. My 30s have been rough for a myriad of reasons, but things feel brighter than they have in some time. Here's to the liminal space that is the last year of a decade. #liminalspace #witchsky #birthday

I have a tree I thought for years was a hawthorn. It turned out to be a Bradford pear of all things. But it's lovely all the same, and it's blooming. I'm fortunate that mine doesn't seem to be of the stinky variety.

He really seems to be. I've never had the privilege of meeting him, but he seems lovely in every interview or talk I've ever heard him give.

I started reading that a couple weeks ago and realized I wanted something more foundational first, as my practice is shifting toward being more specifically druidic. It's next on my list!

Reading slooooooowly through this one. It's a good one. I recommend. #druidsky #pagansky #witchsky

Pagan book by excellent Welsh author. If a bit of alternative spirituality is your thing, you could do worse than Kristoffer Hughes.

Considering this is the first time I've ever done a mend like this and it was a large and ragged hole, I'm considering this a win. Is it magic? It sure feels like it. #visiblemending #menddontthrow #witchsky #mending

I don't think I've watched the news in over four years, and the last time I voluntarily turned it on instead of just watching because I was at someone else's house must be well over a decade ago. I stay informed, but msm has been out of touch for a long time.

Um. Okay, not what I was talking about. Annoying, surely, but not what I was talking about. You sure that D was undeserved?

Did you ever have someone in one of those classes that used the opportunity to discuss to purely argue? Like they weren't actually interested in a discussion or learning; they were just loud and thought they knew more than the professor, and they took joy in being annoying? That's a troll.

I do not have the pattern, but someone on Ravelry helpfully posted photos of what it looks like before it's all sewn together, and I think I can reverse engineer them.

I am, no hesitation, knitting these for my nibblings. They are the sort of goofy kids that will love them. And yes, I thought the green one was a weird chicken at first. #dinosaurs #knitting

Thank you and you're welcome! I wish I could tell you the colorway; the brand is Laines du Nord but I lost the ball band ages ago lol.

It's not hard! YouTube is a great resource for beginners, as is the website Ravelry. I recommend getting yourself some yarn and either needles or a crochet hook and diving in. Neither is particularly difficult; it's really down to whatever appeals to you more.

It's been a busy week, but today it snowed. I worked on Mom's second Christmas mitt. If you are a knitter, you'll know that it's less fun than the first mitt, but the smooshy gorgeous yarn helps. Knitting is a subtle act of magic; a bit love spell and a bit protection magic. #witchsky #knittersky

Someone never hung out with their friends in the ladies room and it shows. This is like... pretty normal behavior.

I always tell transphobes that they have absolutely peed in a stall next to a trans person at some point without ever knowing it. Almost like it didn't affect them.

I've been impressed by how unsuccessful both trolls and bots have been. If you glance at most accounts on your way to the block button, they generally have very few followers and almost no engagement. Trolls especially are mostly shouting into the void.

Witch of the Moss Bog @witchofthemossbog.bsky.social · 05/12/2024
Yeah, but if everyone ignores and blocks them, it takes the incentive out of making them. That's why we have to identify, report, and block. Just make it a waste of time.

I know. I find it baffling that a couple of children were like "mean old Mrs. Smith PINCHED ME with her with her witch powers" and a bunch of grown adults were like, "Guess we gotta kill 25 people now."
010
Witch of the Moss Bog @witchofthemossbog.bsky.social · 05/12/2024
The original false accusers were children. They were completely believed (all evidence to the contrary) by a bunch of grown men who used the made-up tales of children as an excuse to murder their completely innocent neighbors. And by the end, everyone was accusing everybody.

You're welcome. I myself am a woman and a witch, and as much as I recognize that prejudice and persecution against both groups is and has been a thing, its a disservice to the victims to lie about the actual circumstances of their lives and deaths.

I mean she absolutely can get mad. You might think she has no *right* to get mad, but she has both the ability and the freedom to be as mad as she wants. Once words leave your mouth, you have no real say over how people respond to them.

Witch of the Moss Bog @witchofthemossbog.bsky.social · 05/12/2024
It really wasn't. All the people executed during the Salem trials were Christian church goers and few if any spoke against the church. It was a complex event but much of it really was people just accusing neighbors they didn't like, or making accusations to get themselves acquitted.

I've gotta second both Damh the Bard (Damh is pronounced Dave, fyi) and S J Tucker. Her Spiral Dance album is pretty great. Damh the Bard runs the Druidcast podcast and one of the things he does with that is showcase a LOT of pagan music. The interviews are worthwhile even for nondruids imo
