Witches and that sort,

I like having honest conversations about witchcraft practices & ethics. (*my crystal conversations)

We put on a large witches' market & have vendors/visitors from several surrounding states.

I've noticed a lot of 3D printed altar & ritual items in the vendor apps.

We strive to present an artisan market of craftspeople. Also, to promote more eco-friendly items.

What are your thoughts on purchasing and using plastics as ritual tools?

You know these spells and rituals where it is required to light a candle or tea light and let it burn down completely? Well, f**k that.
Tea lights need at least 4 hours to burn down. Any larger candle burns longer than that.
The only candles I know which really burn down fast (ca. 30 minutes or less) are these slim small birthday cake candles, but I don't like those.

So instead, I light candles for rituals and spells and extinguish them either after the ritual is done or some time after that. And then I re-use them until they have burned down completely some day.
Another point here is that I cannot afford so many candles, one for every spell or ritual. I also think that this is not very sustainable.

Kelly-Ann Maddox reacting to videos of ex-witches turned (conservative) Christians is a delight.

Content warnings: Please note that there are lots of mentioning of demons, demonic stuff in general, prejudices against witches. Kelly-Ann Maddox mentions these content warnings also at the beginning of her video.

Made my day: Kelly-Ann included a video where a Christian guy goes into a witchcraft shop, tells staff and customers that they are dealing with demonic stuff and that Jesus loves them. Reaction of one of the staff members: She takes a broom and sweeps him out of the shop.

Hail Freya, it's Friday! Time for a #FridayPaganPoll:

Where did you first hear about Paganism as an actual modern religion?

Have y'all been following this story?

This bookstore needs some love and protection sent their way.

I'll be offering "Solarpunk Pentacle: A Narrative for Action" at Sacred Space Conference end of this month. So excited to be with hundreds of wise and wonderful people.

Preregistration closes soon. For all the info including jam-packed schedule and dance party: https://www.sacredspacefoundation.org/

Because the news has never been so anxiety-provoking, let's take a look at pictures celebrating one of my favorite Discworld characters, the witch Tiffany Aching (Tiphaine Patraque in FR). Following the books' description, with her "midnight outfit" (I loved tooling leather constellations) and a blue hat for her "hat full of sky", she is an excellent reminder to fight against obscurantism.
Did you know her ?

Do not offend a witch, for their revenge can be terrible.

Dear witches of Fedi, do you have any resources to recommend for a budding tarot reader?

Thank The Lady, it's Friday! #FridayPaganPoll number 90:

What phases of the Moon do you regularly celebrate?

(By "celebrate" I mean any ritual act that you are doing because of the moon phase. Not only spells but meditation, writing, art, cleaning, cooking, having tea, or even just going outside and saying, "Hey, moon!")

Witches and that sort,

If you had one month, all expenses paid and all your monthly expenses paid, health in good standing, children well cared for, etc.

~NO WORRIES~

what sort of magical / spiritual practice would you jump into? What type of practice are you always saying....I'd totally immerse myself in ___________?

Be careful out there.

The new moon this week will be in Pisces, along with several other planets. The Pisces New Moon is known for its 'spring cleaning' energy, and all the extra planets in water signs are going to amplify that this year.

I'm gonna let this astral weather give me a boost and choose one physical thing and one spiritual thing that needs cleansing.

Heads up South Carolina: Christian extremists organizing a literal WITCH HUNT:

Stillwater Christian Fellowship isorganising literal witch-hunt in Pickens, S Carolina.They have been infiltrating pagan spaces, hassling people in the streets, the works.

A craft fair was hit by Stillwater Christian Fellowship. Stillwater has called on people to "pick up sticks and chase the wolves out." They are even asking the government to "carry out God's law"-meaning to bring back witchcraft executions.

Well, if these pieces of shit want holy war, war is what they will get!
