currently obsessed with how vanessa stockard draws black cats. i've never seen anyone capture their ability to transform into a vaguely cat-shaped void with so much accuracy
Full moon, I got a pretty dress! Existing is exciting at the moment 🌝
As much as witchcraft amazes me, it also doesn't come naturally. Anything that needs belief, to me, is incredibly hard, be it religion, energy in general or magic.
But it still amazes me, the way fire moves, and that some herbs help you heal, and that we connect to animals and plants, and that dreams sometimes give me little pieces of memories I have not yet made, and That Feeling you get in the middle of a forest, or in a field at night, or before a storm when the first lightning strikes.
Can I be a witch, even if I find believing in the power of magic is hard? Can my practice be held by the awe I feel, by The Feeling of magic under my skin, even if I don't trust it to change my life?
Finally getting back into working on my grimoire, featuring Tarot this time. I plan to give all of the major arcana their own pages (like shown, with my attempts at drawing which are improving), then doing minor arcana with a few cards on each page 🤔
Open to suggestions ♥️ blessed be!
(Also I realize I posted the symbols pages previously but I’m just going to leave them in this post as well because I’m still sick and lazy)

Me and Little My are championing this message
everything is too pretty!! i need homely supremacy. normalize being a little ugly. i don’t think the emphasis needs to be that everyone is beautiful in their own way!! i mean of course they are, but that’s not the point. the point is that ur appearance shouldn’t have any relevance on ur worth. not everything needs to be pleasing to the eye to be worthwhile. i’m sick of women giving into the little man in their brains telling them they need to arch their back the right way when they’re home alone doing laundry. no more aesthetics!!!!! let me do what comes naturally to me and be pudgy and sticky and unladylike and don’t talk to me. i’m going to start biting picnic tables at parks so everyone knows i was ugly and i was there.
The other adorable millies who arrived last week: Spirostreptida sp. ‘Gorontalo’. A little larger than the Centrobolus, but still one of the mid-sized species.
