Something I discovered - I had the same profile text on my Tarot app profiles for ages Changed the profile to something fun and relatable. Brought up how I understand being overwhelmed with possibilities (ADHD) and that I provide a judgment-free space. I've been busy since that change.

Saw a "whoa" moment synchronicity. Cory Booker took over the Senate floor for 25 hours and 4 minutes to make us aware of the BS going on 25:04 2+5+0+4 = 11 The 11th numbered card in the Major Arcana is Justice.

Whenever I mess up going forward, I can tell myself, "At least I didn't add a journalist to a top secret Signal chat where government officials were discussing war plans & making Burn-Book commentary about other countries"

Ok, how many of you witches saw the news about the leak and then looked up how this Mercury Retrograde would affect those with a Cancer sun sign (like the United States)? 🙋‍♀️

I haven't started recording for my occultist podcast series. Was initially going to play off Minnesota vibes and the interest in community/praxis over fixation on history. Now I'm leaning towards mimicking Fallout/post-apoc meets witchcraft vibes.

Glad I made it to Paganicon (hosted by @tcpaganpride.bsky.social) - the closing plenary was ❤️❤️❤️ - now is the time for us pagans to connect with one another, and for those of us who can be visible & take a stand to do so

What I am doing two days before Paganicon: Making sure that the queer friendly swamp witch themed party room has a Kermit mascot... because 🎵Rainbow Connection 🎵

New fave phrase to describe my gender identity: I’m a non-practicing woman

Yesterday was the 333rd anniversary of the Salem Witch Trials. I don't have strong feelings about it because they didn't kill witches - they killed innocents due to a fear of witchcraft. It's a reminder of how dangerous large groups of fearful, biased people can be. We're dealing with that now 😪

This scrum of pot-bellied, sunken-chested betas trying to bully an all-black clad badass Eastern European wasteland survivor while dressed like Men’s Wearhouse mannequins is peak cinema.

Sometimes all you need to do to make your desires real is to write them down. 99% of the time - yes you need to work your ass off between planning, facing your feelings, and doing the work. That sets you up for those moments when you write down your want, and *boom* it happens.

taking black kids away from their parents and putting them on farms seems really familiar to me! what could it be?

Struggles as a fantasy writer - getting TOO MUCH inspiration from current events.

On my to-do list - deconstruct the "metaphysical properties" of crystals. How much is at least minimally scientifically based (lepidolite and mood balancing), how much is from folklore, and how much is based on ROYGBIV-chakra color psychology?

Folks keep telling me they love the energy I put into my beaded bracelets. I didn't realize how MUCH energy I was putting into them until I finished stringing up 23 bracelets and felt as exhausted as I do when I do Tarot back to back for hours at an event. It's a lot.

My new tool for identifying whether a collection of beliefs has a discernable lineage or if someone just took a little bit of everything to form their worldview.

Have you ever had a conversation that can only last for a finite time, but simultaneously you wish it could keep going and going? That's what it was like to chat with @falkensmage.bsky.social! Curious what two spiritual geeks end up talking about? Stay tuned 👇

The Democrats in the Senate are taking over the floor for 30 hours to hold up the confirmation vote for Russell Vought to be Director of the Office of Management and Budget He's one of the architects of Project 2025 Call upon whatever system you use to give these Senators resilience & visibility.

This is HARROWING

Update on the TC Pride fundraiser- they reached the 50k needed to recoup from their decision to cut ties with Target. tcpride.harnessgiving.org/campaigns/17... This is huge.

Hey folks who are now boycotting Target - Twin Cities Pride disinvited the company from being a sponsor at their event. That's a huge financial hit. Let's make sure that the event stays free to the public and that the vendor booths remain affordable. Please donate - tcpride.harnessgiving.org/donate/

If it seems like I've been trying harder to get people interested in buying my book lately, I have, and I'll be transparent about why. Next month, 78 Acts of Liberation will have been out for 6 months. At 6 months is when bookstores generally return unsold copies. 🧵

“A Hitler salute is a Hitler salute is a Hitler salute,” the prominent German weekly Die Zeit wrote in an editorial. Also, in related news, a clownish dick is a clownish dick. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/24/w...

Hey, did you know that someone in the U.S. House of Representatives sponsored a bill to condemn Bishop Budde's Chrisrian message of mercy? www.govinfo.gov/app/details/...

I'm at a loss... wtf does "The sin of empathy" even mean?

I think that as spiritual practitioners we need to review the "It's not about the nail" skit (analysts: youtu.be/RGUf1ykrIug?...) Folks are scared right now. They need to know we see that and that them feeling afraid is valid. We don't need to give answers or "fix" them. Let them know we see them

One of my cats likes to sit on my lap when I'm at the computer. She climbs on the shelf under my desk, walks onto me, and flops. This afternoon, she was perched on her shelf, waiting. When she laid down, she put her paw on my hand and looked directly into my eyes for several moments. 🥰

Podcasting means making difficult decisions... like whether to have the next episode of Spiritual AF Sundays be a witch reading excepts of the Gospel or making parallels between American Gods & the modern evangelical movement (while being clear I do not condone Gaiman's behavior)

My next read --downloaded the audio read by the author. Hardcover was sold out!

okay so if @megjoneswall.bsky.social & i were to make tumblrs, would you come reblog resources, talk tarot & otherwise yap with us like it’s 2013? 🗣️🤘👀

…it’s time to officially retire the concept of being a safe person. It’s okay to be a person who isn’t sure what to do but tries. It’s okay to be a person who will TRY to do their best and maybe fuck up sometimes. We don’t get to define safe, for others. It’s not even safe to think we can.

My life writing about magic got easier when I stopped faithfully transcribing the mechanism thru which I received spirit communication and started saying “they said” instead.

So many have not learned them at all.

It is my goal to be the inclusive heathen community's hype man. I just want you all to be happy and healthy and create amazing things

They really are.

If people are throwing bible verses at you, recite James 5:1-4 in your best witchy invocation voice. And if they ask if "the rich" in the verse refers to people or countries, say yes. #witchtips

Who else saw that salute and went "Oh hell no" #witchcraft

If you are THAT knowledgeable about the Roman Empire, Then you would know that wasn’t the “Roman salute.”

Witch: How did you get into chaos magick? Chaos Magician: Finally understanding the core mechanics of Mage: the Awakening. W: 👀 If you know, you know.

Unintended benefit of the TikTok ban/reboot - most of my feed is WitchTok... specifically the space that deals with complex, western esoteric concepts. Found the other folks who nerd out about egregores.

Because of my ADHD, my brain needs input to chill TF out. Specifically, input on "WTF can I *do* to fix X issue". So, I'm going to handle that first by binge-watching business videos, and then I'm going to take some THC and play silly games / watch silly shows so I can re-regulate myself.

I don't know how much I'll be On Here today, but I urge everyone to take care of themselves today. Participate in any demonstrations you feel called to, or stay home if you need to. But I hope that you're able to do something to restore your strength and resolve.
