Amazing card a day journal layout!

I love this journal layout!

Having a hard time with world news (and hormones) today. Thought this was such a powerful message "I won't give in to the lies. I won't give in to fear. I will hold on to the truth and to hope."

Can you tell me something about this book? I had no idea she'd written something like this. And yes her work is problematic, but also seminal

The best bits are the intro and explanation rather than the body of the texts, which you can get online. Might be worth checking out z-lib or similar

I bought it yonks ago when it first came out. I've had books get lost in the post and then discovered how expensive they are to replace!

The Hogfather by Terry Pratchett

Sir PTerry intimately understood folklore and fauxlore. We're reading The Hogfather to the kids at the moment, an exploration of the dual God of Death and Rebirth (where each experiences the other), the nature and utility of belief and what it means to be human.

I'd have to go back and do an analysis of her books, but you're right early practices didn't have any elemental associations. I think it's really interesting, Gerald was obviously very knowledgeable about GD and ceremonial systems, but deliberately excluded it from his reimagining of what he found

Ah witchcraft for tomorrow! Valiente's Cochranian era

When did she align then with air?!

@tarasanchez.bsky.social you recommended an alternative to Goodreads I think? I've gotten rid of my kindle unlimited account and need somewhere for recommendations!

You have to change the structure. That means thinking about power differently. R means decoupling it from public prestige. It means thinking collaboratively, about the power of followers not just leaders. It means, above all, thinking about power as an attribute or even a verb ('to power'), not as a possession. What I have in mind is the ability to be effective, to make a difference in the world, and the right to be taken seriously, together as much as individually. It is power in that sense that many women feel they don't have - and that they want.

Mary Beard - Women and Power

Ugh, my department manager has just said that we're expected to do our office days in the new office from Feb 4th. That's right in 10 days! It makes my journey 50% longer.

I've messaged my people manager and refused.

Anyone can see your posts but you can set it so only followers can interact

Reading around the issues I'm contemplating in BTW Wicca at the moment. This is such a helpful book.

These are the times our traditions were made for.

No, not as an escape...

As a reminder for what the world could look like.

Keep circling. Keep dancing. Keep holding community.
