Every ebb tide gifts the salt hag temporary scrying pools. Brined reflections of tomorrow. Opportunities for seaweed phytognomy where she may peer round the corners of time. The shore is her temple. She never lacks space for magic. – #EmilyCBanting, 1982 #WitchSky

England is a small country. Among its defining characteristics are the density of and proximity to ghosts. City streets or rural lanes, one does not have to walk far to encounter a temporal shade. No wonder the English have measurements such a phantoms per acre. – #CJosiffe #Ghosts

The cunning folk may have the crow as their bird, but we witches have the swan. It’s they who gift us feathers for our cloaks. It’s they who take messages to our dead sisters and bring back wise counsel. Never an owned familiar, always an amplifier of magics. – #EmilyCBanting, 1982 #WitchSky

For the Hermit Fox is a shy creature. Approach too quickly, without establishing a rapport, and the door of the hermit shell, the operculum, will slam shut. But make no mistake, whilst the Hermit Fox is shy they are also fierce, tenacious and protective of their loved ones. 🦊🌘🐚 #Whistpr

We called them transmission temples, not transmission towers. They sent The Hum down the lines we followed. They transmitted the signal encoded in the electric ley of the land. They were our psychic infrastructure, our temporary altars. – Signal-catcher Rose, ex-Child of The Hum #VOH #Pylons

The broken castles of England haunt with an unpleasant sense of control. Stone that hold an echoing message of know your place, do as you are told. They offer sorrow phantoms, the psychic cicatrix of repression., Lords of the land scared of their own people. – #CJosiffe #Castles

The pylons marched the land and so did we. Each pylon passed giving its voice to The Hum we heard. Each transmission tower a temporary temple. The electric ley of the land charting itself in our heads with every walked mile. – Signal-catcher Rose, ex-Child of The Hum #VOH

Reindeer apparently love and actively seek out fly agaric mushrooms/Amanita muscaria. There are many stories of humans drinking the urin of reindeer who had feasted on these shrooms as the reindeer's kidneys/liver filter out the toxins but not the psychedelic properties 🖤🌀🍄 #whistpr 1/2

Yet another new book for my reading list! global.oup.com/academic/pro...

The 7th Chapter "canvases James's long-standing interest in parapsychology, including his interactions with allies like Frederick Myers and critics...Sommer shows that surprisingly, many of these criticisms were based on religious or political considerations rather than on purely scientific ones."

Summer comes to the forest as green riot. A shouting of spirited voices each with unfolding delight on its lips. A thousand acts of solar alchemy, moments of awe. Those who talk of magic only as a shadowed thing forget the power of days when it surrounds you in its wild glory. – #EmilyCBanting

Happy #WorldLabyrinthDay. This labyrinth in London SE23 has been around since 2012. The demarcations were originally made from sticks and stones, and in later years turned to moss and grass 🌿🐾🌀
