Happy birthday to me! I’ve been having a wonderfully lazy day ☺️ and received some really special and thoughtful gifts 💐💖 #grateful #birthdaygirl #thestorywitch #everydaymagic #matildamyrtlemayisawesome

Oops, no caption 🙈 😄 It should have said, here’s my set up for June as part of the #witchybujocollab I’m hosting with @cloudninestudios 💖 I got it up as early as possible so there’s plenty of time for people to join in. The theme is fairies, but feel free to riff. I’m so excited to see what everyone comes up with. If you use the hashtags #witchybujocollab #junefairies #junefae I’ll be able to see your spreads. But maybe best to tag me in too just in case. You can do it here or on YouTube ❤️

I’ve been very quiet here the last few weeks and this little rascal is why 😄 #puppy #puppyeyes #dogbasket #distractioncentral

I’ve started a video series about red tent! It’s something I’ve wanted to talk about for a while. Let me know what you think and ideas/ questions for future episodes ❤️ . . . #redtent #redtentcircle #womenempowerment #womeninspiringwomen #womensupportwomen #witchesofyoutube #youtubewitches #passtherattle #intheredtent #goddesscircle #divinefeminine #sacredspace #sacredfeminine #witchyselfie #thestorywitch #womencircle #womenscircles #sacredwomenscircle #priestess #ceremony

I uploaded a review of this book by @sharonblackiemythmakings today (link in bio or DM me). Though to be honest it is less a review and more an introduction and recommendation. I’m finding it really speaks to that call to connect, to root (not toot - autocorrect lol 😄), to weave ourselves back in to our collective earth story, that so many of us are feeling right now 💖 . . . #womenempowerment #womeninspiringwomen #womenstorytellers #ifwomenroserooted #sharonblackie #witchybooks #bookwitch #bookreview #bookstagram #bluebells #springintosummer #springintoyourmagick #youtubewitches #witchesofig #witchesofyoutube #witchesofinstagram🔮🌙 #thestorywitch #thisfictionisreal

“Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there-on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam. The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the Universe, are challenged by this point of pale light. Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves. The Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment the Earth is where we make our stand. It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known.” ― Carl Sagan, Pale Blue Dot, Photo by NASA on Unsplash

One of the many lovely things about living next to some woodland. Bluebells popping up in the garden 😍 #everydaymagic #smallpleasures #lovemygarden

“When did you first fall in love?" "I think, I first fell in love when I was in fifth grade with this boy who kept his glass ruler in the sunlight and made rainbows on my desk with it.” ― Saiber, Stardust and Sheets The full moon museletter for April is out now (link in bio).
