Altar tools, Pagan books, The Empress tarot card

I just refreshed my little passive shop shelf at The Healing Society 🌟

I'm working on some seasonal pop ups for SouthernOracle! What are some things you wish you saw more of in Magick/new age shops? I'm working on a curated selection of pottery, ritual wear, jewelry, antique altar pieces.. along with some handmade incense

Here's my solo solstice meditation set up! I am lucky that the place I work has a room for this ☀️ If you wonder if those sandwiches are necessary for ritual, the answer is YES because I used apricot preserves 💁🏻‍♀️

Pagan Rituals to Celebrate Litha, the Summer Solstice Looking for rituals to help you celebrate the summer solstice? Here are some great ways to mark the spirituality of Litha, or midsummer, each year.

Source! I used this wording as part of a coven ritual years ago and I still think about how powerful that day was.

#witchsky

"We draw upon your strength, your energy, your healing light, and your life-giving power.
Hail to you, mighty gods and goddesses of the sun!”

#witchsky

"Hail Hestia, whose sacred flame lights our way in the darkness.
Hail Sunna, who is the sister of the moon and bringer of light.

We call upon you today. We thank you for your blessings and accept your gifts."

#witchsky

“Gods who bring us light, we honor you!
Hail Ra, whose mighty chariot brings us light each morning.
Hail Apollo, who brings us the healing energies of the sun.
Hail Saule, whose fertility blooms as the sun gains in strength.
Hail Helios, whose great steeds race the flames across the sky."

the best orange cat

@dame-grise.bsky.social said to be a cat on Insta so let me run a test here first.

This is Rengoku aka Ren aka Noodle aka Weasley.

He is very loud and snuggly and has pink beans and freckles.

As an spring/autumn girl at heart, I’ve been loving all the rain and storms we’ve had lately. My patio plants are usually crisped by now, but they’re looking so content. Here’s my mugwort. It’s even made lil babies. 🌧️🌿

Shop — SouthernOracle

I'm going through a stressy time lately so here is a friendly reminder that I sell things 🪄

#witchsky

Haha I have two cats!

Instagram is not my favorite place, but if I want to reach more local friends and build more connection, it’s something I probably need to step into. So, my launch will happen on Samhain! I’d love to hear any tips you have for surviving the Insta realm. 🫣🔮🎃

Playing your genetic folk music in your headphones while doing chores is both an ADHD-friendly strategy and a way to connect with your ancestors.

Hey Bluesky, thought I’d reintroduce myself.

I’m Olivia, a professional witch in Nashville.

I’m tragically romantic, frequently daydreaming, & completely enchanted by mythology, folklore, fairy tales, history, Shakespeare, wine, roses, poetry, truth, cherries, bread and love 💕

Anyway, today's Moonwire is (possible title?):

What words do you use for spiritual "downloads"? I don't want to use a techy term & I want to start posting mine here. Sometimes they don't make sense for me but maybe someone else would make use of them. Maybe, oracle echoes? Moon mail? Cosmic gossip?

#witchsky

I have been saying this so much lately 😭

Improvised altar. Wooden plate with bouquet of daisies in brass vase, bundles of herbs, Labradorite, a music box, a cricket cage, and a cable on a floral picnic blanket

Some pretty geese that live in Centennial Park

Far-shooting Apollo holding his lyre

A peak at golden Athena through the columns

Scenes from yesterday's picnic and visit to Athena. I hope more will join us next time 🧺🍧🧀🫒

Thank you ✨

Hey there Bluesky witch friends, I'm facing a challenging day, if you have any ✨💖 to spare, please send some my way.

I'm all set up for the Arbor Day Market @ Honeytree Meadery here in Nashville. It is a beautiful rainy day. Come say hi! 🐝🍯🔮

Two books. One is the new translation of The Iliad by Emily Wilson and the other is a historical fiction bestseller titled A Thousand Ships by Natalie Haynes.

The Iliad has been and will likely stay my most rewarding and ever fascinating hyper focus. Also, I highly recommend The Great Courses lectures by Professor Elizabeth Vandiver 🏺🐎⚔️🦢
