New Moon Portal

 Good morning, my dears. Diabetes is kicking my ass. I have been low several times since four in the morning. I feel very drained and it is hard to form complete thoughts. So fair warning, this post might not make sense.  First, it is a new moon. I should have written a post yesterday, but I got tied up with Lemon 8. I posted my sketchbook, then I posted horse art. Then I got the bright idea to post daily Tarot readings. I decided that's how I would share my magick with the world. I think the world needs more magick. I am not charging for readings, and I am not being a pest about it. I get annoyed when I find a sister Witch on social media, I like her post, then she sends me messages every day offering to read the cards or lift curses. You the curse, shut up and sit down. New moon- it is a new moon in Pisces. This is the last sign of the zodiac year. I have been given a spell to open the path to goals, but I must leave the spell undisturbed until the full moon in March. I have...

Buy Nothing Feb. 28

 I recently learned of a 24 hour spending blackout on Feb. 28, 2025. For one whole day, buy absolutely nothing. Don't shop online, don't go out to eat, don't buy gas. I think it is a fabulous idea. I am sick of capitalism. I am tired of every aspect of my life involving money. I'd really like to not go anywhere, but my fiber group is meeting that day. That monthly meeting of like minded ladies is something I look forward to all month, and I refuse to miss it.  It is really hard to make boycotts work. They do send a message, Target is crying right now. Good, suffer. But Target is still open. I think boycotts are most successful if the business either goes under or is completely forced to change how they operate.  Buy nothing day allows us to send a message to multiple business across America at once. Better, for just a day, we the people are united. I think any time Americans come together, when we speak as one, it is a good thing. It shows we cannot be distracted or div...

 Good morning my dears. I thought I would show you what I've been doing. First up is the laundry room. I keep my plants here in the winter. This is mostly food that I don't want to spray with bitter spray. Bitter spray might make the oranges taste bad, and it is not really a deterrent. Occasionally, the cats will bite my plants to see if they are still bitter. This makes them angry, seeing a tender, tasty green shoot, then having a mouthful of nasty chemical that won't depart. Sometimes they get so pissed off they strip stems of leaves. I fear the day the cats learn to knock over flower pots. The good thing about the laundry room is that I can close the door. I have both grow lights and the window for natural light. The bad thing is that it is crowded. I can't reach my cabinets. The other day I knocked over a flower pot as I was trying to get a trash bag.  I took everything out and mopped. I also cleaned the door and reset a ward. Currently. I moved the shelves down and...

Improving. Kinda

Finally! I am to blog with pictures! from my phone! I am so glad I got that to work. As you can see, I found a useful spell. I haven't tried it yet.  I think I should try it immediately. Lots of bad things happened today.  First, I couldn't wake up. I barely slept last night. I itched a lot. My rashes were settling down, so the flare is damn annoying. I don't know if I didn't get all the THC residue out, or if I have been re-exposed. Maybe both. Maybe both coupled with stress.  Since I didn't wake up, I didn't shower. Or have coffee. Or start cleaning.  I was sort of rushing out the door when the nurse at the allergist called me and said my insurance was inactive. I am supposed to have insurance until the end of the month.  Since I don't have insurance anymore, I started cancelling other appointments. When I called the dentist, they assured me that I still had insurance on the 19th because they ran it before sending me the reminder. I explained the allergist...

Thursday

 Good morning, my dears. I have been journaling. Yesterday I talked about a friendship that really ended a long time ago, but I never really let go. I thought about it more and realized I may have been bespelled. I think she put my name in the freezer, thus inadvertently binding me to her. Which explains why I couldn't move on and why I kept reaching out even though it was obvious things had ended.  I took steps to break the spell. I feel better, more free. My thoughts seem clearer. During my journaling session, it was easier to figure out what I want and what steps I should take to reach my goals. I do not think I have cut all the ties, but I am breaking free. I also feel inspired to clean my home and studio. I suddenly have a lot of ideas to make things better. I found old notes, a whole list of ideas for art, and I don't know why I never did any of them. Well, now I know- I was blinded to living my life.  I don't think she did this out of malice, exactly. I mean, putti...

Last Quarter

 Today is the moon is 60% in Scorpio, which is a wonderful sign for making things bear fruit. Now, of course, when the moon shrinks, we let go. Is there some small thing holding you back, stopping you? Some minor detail tripping you up, or preventing you from reaching your goal? Today is the day to overcome it. I am going to do a road opener spell. I have a few blocks that I have not dealt with because life has been overwhelming as of late.  I think a long term friendship has ended. It ended a while ago, but I kept trying to rekindle the connection. Yesterday, she told me she was 'stepping back' because hearing about my problems was 'too stressful.' Well, fuck. Imagine how stressful it is to live with those problems. I asked what she was stepping back from, as she wasn't present in my life. She said she just had to say something; she couldn't be silent about how bad things are.  Except, she didn't say anything, other than this situation was stressing her. Sh...

Valentine's Day

 Good morning, my dears. Things are a little calmer now, so I decided to try blogging. My life is still a chaotic mess. I start a lot of things, but I rarely finish anything. I do what I can until the next opportunity rolls around. My husband is working again. He went back to work for his old job. He doesn't like it because the next job was better, and it's less pay. He found another job at a smaller airport, but he hasn't heard back yet. Though apparently other people know about it because the boss that just fired him called the other airport and left a glowing review of my husband. I think he has guilt about firing him.  I have a lot of fears about money. I went to physical therapy the day my husband got fired. I suddenly realized that my next appointment may not be covered by insurance. I don't even know how long we will have insurance, if we won't be covered for a while, or what plan we will have next. If we have insurance.  That is the thing that makes me angry...

February Full Moon

Image
  Good afternoon, my dears. The moon is full in the sign of Leo. I call February's full moon The Making Moon because normally at this time I am making something for a spring show or craft fair. This year I am making lots of things. I am also doing more things, which is where the purple dragon comes in. I work with dragons often. This on really spoke to me. He is friendlier than my other dragons, so he didn't object to being photographed. But he doesn't want me to tell you what he does or how he's helping me. I can tell you he is more of a personal dragon. Do not be confused- he is more of a life coach; he is NOT a pet or servant. This moon has brought many changes. Second son moved in with his family. My house is a chaotic mess. I am trying to stretch and exercise. As a result, even though I am yet to make it a daily habit, I'm in less pain. I would like to start playing tennis. I feel pretty good. Youngest son got a job. So far, all is well. I started writing, then...

First Quarter

 Life is a chaotic mess. My second oldest son, and his wife and children, have moved in with us. I am preparing for a craft fair. Our cat is on a diet because he is getting fat and he won't allow the other cat to eat. We are only feeding the cats twice a day. This is making our fat cat very angry; he growls as he eats.  I have started seeds. I moved an apple tree. I have all my plants either in my very small laundry room, which makes laundry difficult as I can't get to my cabinets, or I have my plants lining the kitchen island and doused with bitter spray to keep the cat from chewing on them. The bitter spray doesn't stop the cat from biting the tips off.  There's more, but I don't have time to write. Blessed be, my dears.
