Woke up on St Brigid’s Day / Imbolg in my parents’ house so was able to wish my mother a happy #Imbolc before returning to Cork. Watched a couple of witchy reels on Instagram so got an idea or two to honour the first day of Spring (per the Celtic calendar 🌱). Feeling excited for change this year!

Alright lads, I’m trying this app again. After a hiatus. What did I miss?

So, how was your August?

Loving the gym lately. Changed up my workout routine with a little help from ChatGPT and definitely noticing a difference. Getting ready for MadBear in Torremolinos in August!! 🐻 🏳️‍🌈 💪 #lgbt #gay #gaybear #gayotter

Hey BlueSky, it’s been a while 👋 Had a fantastic time at Mighty Hoopla in London. Lots of good memories made with friends from 🇬🇧, 🇮🇪, & 🇬🇷! #lgbt #gay

Been a busy few days lately with @wil-of-the-people.bsky.social being back in Ireland for a few days. Love this shot from our day trip to Killarney National Park yesterday. Thanks @spiller2.bsky.social for the 📸 skills!

Back in Ireland now and spent a few days catching up with friends in Dublin. Been really good to spend some quality time with people who know me well, and unknowingly at the time, remind me of who I am in the process. Feeling really good about life lately, a very welcome feeling.

Really loved my time in Seattle lately! I’ve come to definitely consider it a second home of sorts. #travel #IrishAbroad #longdistance #spéirghorm

Long day ahead; flying from Dublin to Heathrow, then on to Seattle for almost 3 weeks. But then getting up tomorrow to fly to San Francisco for the weekend, because why not. I’m gonna see a lot of planes over the next 48 hours 😅✈️

Another year older, time for something new… 🐦‍🔥 📸: Caroline Müller 📍: Cork, Ireland #portrait #lgbt #gay #witchsky #birthday

Tomorrow marks my 37th birthday and the 6-week checkpoint of some personal goals and projects; financial, fitness/health, spiritual, emotional, and creative. Feels like a longer kind of New Year, New Me kind of moment, but with more weight than just the new year. Here’s a little teaser.

Catching up with @apathist.bsky.social and after giving out about #Section31’s awful Oirish accent and must say I’m hugely impressed with not only what @seanferrick.bsky.social has achieved but also the dialogue and interviewing some of the cast. Major kudos deserved. #StarTrek

Cute moment of the day; at almost 37 years old, my dad rushes to give me a packed lunch before I make my way back to Cork after a few days at home in Dublin. I know I’m gonna look back at this one day when they’re not around and be grateful for things like this. Very lucky.

A green candle with runes carved into it for new beginnings, strength, communication, and endurance, alongside some white sage incense for focus and calm. Best I could do for a very hungover #imbolc while staying with my parents in Dublin! #witchsky #stbrigidsday

Trí aisling Bríde: - Speirbhean óg álainn dhubh, ag siúl faoin ngrian cois Life - Fógra an Wellwoman Centre, lasta is soiléir - Mála ag bean óg; “Cad a dhéanfadh Dolly?” #spéirghorm #gaeilge #Imbolc

It’s a stunning day in Dublin today. In town to get the hair cut, pick up a candle and some incense for a little #Imbolc ritual tomorrow, and then catch up with friends later tonight. Excited for tomorrow being the first day of spring (per the Celtic calendar)! #witchsky #spéirghorm

Home for a few days in Dublin and so ready to relax for the long weekend!

It’s a month since my last New Moon spell and alongside some other practices like journaling & shadow work, I’ve noticed so much inner change lately. With tonight’s 🌑 in ♒️ (my own sign) it provides a more potent opportunity to reinforce my desire to let go of the past & toxic energies. #witchsky

Finally got around to consecrating my new Book of Shadows with a first page written in Irish in the old Gaelic font (Leaḃar Draíoċta an Ḃuitléiriġ, or Butler’s Book of Magick) alongside a poetic introduction. Charging it with clear quartz, hematite, an opalite. Excited! ✨ #witchcraft #magick #witch

I was so excited for the release of #Section31 today… until I heard the godawful “Irish” accent of Sven Ruygrok, who plays Fuzz. I am so disappointed in Star Trek. It makes no sense for a South African actor to do this outdated “Oirish” accent instead of his own. Couldn’t even finish the movie.

Was off social media for ~25 days and it’s been a great way to detox and gain perspective on online behaviours and habits. Unfollowed close to 2,000 Instahunks on IG, also deactivated Threads and uninstalled FB & Messenger. Glad NYE was a good opportunity to reset myself, in more ways than one.

Brón orm a chloisteáil go bhfuil an Snodach imithe ar shlí na fírinne. Fear ceannródaíoch a rinne obair na gcapall ar son phobal, ghluaiseacht, agus litríocht na #Gaeilge. Comhbhrón lena mhuintir agus a chairde.

Hair & beard done and ready for the night out!

Nollaig Shona daoibh go léir! Merry Christmas to you all! 🎄 Photo/Grianghraf: Clontarf Castle, Dublin / Caisleán Chluain Tarbh, Baile Átha Cliath

Dublin pharmacists are class - found these inside my normal prescription bag this morning 🎅🏻

Took the parents to see Wicked, major success ✨

Cute moment of being home for Christmas; being woken up by my dad bringing in a cup of tea. ☺️☕️ Also my sleep cycle is already messed up; didn’t fall asleep until 5am after playing video games and some Instagram spring cleaning. So the tea is probably needed 😅

I look at some of the account on here and y’all are too spicy for me 😅 Weirdly, maybe, the more explicit the content, the less I’m inclined to engage or follow. Threads is good for the subtle (tasteful?) thirst traps and leaving more to the imagination. Leaves me wondering what to post here instead.

Fun: Getting paid today. Not fun: Planning 6 weeks of spending instead of 4, and starting Month 1 of an 18-month strict savings plan in order to buy an apartment before I’m 39. The anxiety alone has me feeling itchy already.

Ventured into Dublin City centre to attempt to finish off the Christmas shopping list and instantly regretted not buying the presents sooner. Came out with a couple of T-shirts and books, and still need to buy more. Grateful for the 2 weeks I have off work but definitely don’t feel Christmassy! 🎄

Christmas condition 💪

Ag glaoch ar lucht #spéirghorm na #Gaeilge: D’aimsigh mé an leabhar álainn seo, Cúirt i dTosaċ Oiḋċe, i siopa beag i gCorcaigh inniu. Faraor, ní féidir liom aon rian de nó dá údar - Eoġan Ultaċ Ó Fairceallaiġ – ar an idirlíon. Ar chuala éinne trácht air?

For the first time in easily 18 years, I did a #tarot card reading for myself. Simple layout; the querent on top, and their (my) past, present, and future underneath. Couldn’t have been more impressed at what I got out of it, and feeling good as a result, although some food for thought. #wicca

'Bhfuil tú ok babes, char shuigh tú ar an Tollaig go fóill

Been a busy few days in Manchester but overall very good. Still felt a little weird; last time I was here, my ex-fiancé and I broke up after 7 years. That was March ‘22, so to make new memories with new friends was something quite special to recognise just how much life had moved on. As it should.

Manchester with @apathist.bsky.social has been great so far! Flying home Monday so the fun isn’t over yet 🍻 🏳️‍🌈

Deireadh na hoíche. End of the night. Straight into pyjamas and ready for bed. You ready? #gay

17 year old me would be proud. ✨ Felt a strong urge lately to return to my spiritual roots. I was taught about various aspects of magick – aura sight, tarot, astrology, reiki, and crystals – by my parents as a kid, and learned more about #Wicca as a teen. Weirdly feels like it never truly left me.

Fairly happy with the result from the general election I gotta admit. Glad to see the SocDems and Labour gain seats in the Dáil, although I didn’t expect the Greens losing so many of theirs. Disappointed in the (small) gains for Aontú and Independent Ireland, but so be it.

I found my new favourite word in Irish. My type? Fear mór másach.

Brought @wil-of-the-people.bsky.social out to Spike Island for a tour – great little piece of #Cork history! #discoverIreland

Workout complete done - ready for the weekend! @wil-of-the-people.bsky.social

Oíche amuigh le cara liom a bhfuil aithne agam air ó bhí muid 16. Cónaí air in aice le Hyne’s Bar ar Bhóthar na gCloch, tábhairne ina bhfuil Gaeilge ag foireann an bheáir agus an áit fáiltiúl d’aeraigh – bhí me ar neamh! 😍🏳️‍🌈🍻

Needed a coffee and walk along Dublin Bay for some fresh winter air (yes I said winter, November is the start of winter in the Celtic calendar). How’s your Monday going?

Just spent the last 4ish hours spending quality time with my Mam, discussing everything from love to Wicca to college memories to personal growth and goals. It’s quality time like tonight that I love and equally know we don’t get often in everyday life. Tonight was a gift.

Today, in random shit from Duolingo that you’ll never say: Wnaeth Dylan wylio’r pannas ddoe? Did Dylan watch the parsnips yesterday?

Drop a random selfie from your gallery.

Flights booked for next April’s Bear Carnival in Gran Canaria! Who’s going? 🐻 🏳️‍🌈 Done Sitges and Torremolinos plenty of times before but never Maspalomas, curious to see what it’s like!

Hit the gym last night for the first time in 2-3 weeks (apart from one workout while abroad) and felt crap. Had to drop down a weight on a fair few exercises, and didn’t feel better until this morning. Tempted to do a PT session or two to get back on track.

Ugh - new (ish) platform, same anxieties over what my “personal brand” is gonna be. Serves me right for working in marketing for too long. Travel, gym “progress”, Gaeilge and probably other languages, gay stuff (SFW) and generally other attempts at making myself feel like an okay 30-something. OK?
