In my backyard are multiple towering oaks. The front of our house is shaded by a Cypress, and we love the Redbuds that are native to our state. Forest magic just makes sense. 🌳🌲
The cover of the book Forest Magic by Nikki Van de Car. One half shows a thriving forest in summer with a forest king. The other half shows a cool winter forest with its king.
Ever read something that you know will be foundational to your growing practice? That's how I feel about this book.
I'm still learning about what suits me. I've always been drawn to trees, and that's why I was drawn to this book over other green witchcraft practices.

Me: I have energy and a desire to make some improvements in my life!
The first couple weeks of 2026: hahahahahaha
My 2026 goals (already off to a good start on a few of them!):
✨ Find or build a community (online or in person) outside of work
✨ Build strength in my body
✨ Take a real vacation
✨ Read 45 books
2025 was the year I learned about who I am; 2026 is about me building who I want to be. ❤️
Happy New Year, friends! My active cycle is wonky due to work, so I always take a hiatus in Fall while I'm super busy!
Now I'm back from hibernation, and ready to share what I've learned these past few months.
I'm also excited to share my 2026 goals soon!
listen
the world is a mess
but a judge ordered the Florida migrant prison closed, California passed their "fuck around, find out" redistricting, and James Dobson is dead
this is the best net good news day in awhile, I really do think

A white oracle card with a watercolor painting of a white rat on it. The rat is surrounded by small mushrooms and green leaves. The words Rat- Fear are at the bottom.
Image included here since I know at least one person with a phobia of this animal. 2/2
Divine providence.. today's COTD from the Winterseer Oracle by Siolo Thompson is:
Rat- Fear (image below)
For my fellow Americans, today many of us might be feeling fearful and worried, rightfully so.
The Rat reminds us not to isolate in our fear, but stand in the light of our truth. 1/2
An image of the goddess Kali. She has blue skin and is wearing a golden crown and necklace, and red garments with skulls hanging from her belt. Her lower arms are poised in a blessing with the right outstretched and palm facing out and the left resting just below her throat. Her upper arms are curved over her head, with the right hand holding a mace and the left a scimitar.
Today's COTD is from the Kali deck by Alana Fairchild: Guhya Kali.
This card reminds us to not dismiss our intuition, and to rest and reflect on our insights to gain wisdom. Watch for secrets to be revealed.

A watercolor image of a blue and green salmon with pink spots. Blue water and white hazelnut leaves decorate the card, along with two brown hazelnuts. The words Salmon-Wisdom are at the bottom. Art by Siolo Thompson.
For the final day of June, the COTD is the Salmon!
The salmon reminds us that wisdom is rooted in compassion and acceptance. Compassion for those around us, and acceptance of our past so that we may learn from it.

Literally how I feel about most of y'all on #WitchSky 😅
Wow! This reminds me I need to go and check mine!
To the gal that rolled up to Aldi blasting Hozier's Cherry Wine from her car speakers- I hope you're okay, queen. 😅
Maybe the synthetic perfumes in some brands? I'll actually have to pay attention to the ingredients lol
Same.. I've found I can get away with half a stick before the sniffles kick in, so I usually work quickly and snuff them out. 🤷♀️ I've started using smudge/EO sprays instead for scent and a feather as my air rep. No thoughts on brands, though, so I'm curious if anyone else has recs!
