Welcome to my magical home
Thanks for stopping by my witchcraft corner! This is one of the few places I can actively express myself without fear of being judged or persecuted, as I live in the deep south and most folks around me frown upon it and deeply misunderstand it. Here, I will be cataloging my witchcraft journey and share with you all my daily practices and rituals that bring me comfort and a sense of spiritual fulfillment.
A few things about me: I started my witchcraft journey some time ago, after I started deconstructing from evangelical christianity. I had already started being a progressive christian, but after every christian started worshipping Trump, as well an incident where a sunday school teacher singled out my friend who was pregnant, it was then I knew that I had to leave. I had felt Hestia calling me shortly after that. I had been thinking about devoting myself to her, and after a drive through the city one day, I found a building with the word "Vesta" on it, Hestia's Roman counterpart. After that, I knew it was a sign....literally! Lol! Hestia is my patron goddess, and I love her so much. I have also starting worshipping other gods too, including Aphrodite, Hera, Hebe, and Morpheus. I started out mostly as a home and hearth witch, but I have branched out into other rituals, so I'm more eclectic these days. I'm trying to become more familiar with my local area, too, especially the local wildlife. Whenever I'm out on my nature walks looking for flowers and butterflies, I feel more free and connected than any other time. I hope you enjoy my craft as much as I do!

One thing I try to do to stay in tune with my spiritual practice is "music divination" where I shuffle a playlist or turn on the radio, focus on a question or topic I want more insight on, then listen to the lyrics of whatever song plays first and take away whatever speaks to me. Lately I've been getting impatiet about hearing back from that job. When I did my music divination today, the radio was playing "Unwritten" by Natasha Beddingfield, and I honestly think that the core message was at the very end, simply when she sings "The rest is still unwritten". I think the universe is trying to tell me to keep waiting because a decision still hasn't been made. Annoying, but clear.

I feel like the closer the planet rotates towards my sun sign, the more confident and happy I get. Is that weird? My birthday is in a couple weeks, and I am just... feeling myself, y'know? Recently, I just finished one of my favorite seasons of AHS, Coven, because I like to watch my favorite seasons around this time of year leading up to spooky season. And, although these are just fictional witches and they don't really represent the witchcraft sphere irl, I still felt encouraged to get back into my own craft. I've really had the song "Seven Wonders" by Fleetwood Mac stuck in my mind too (partly because of the show), because I absolutely love the scene where the girls at Ms. Robichaeux's academy were practicing with their powers before attempting to perform the Seven Wonders. Sometimes there are times in my life where my practice wanes and then comes back with the changing of the seasons. Summer has always been at a lull for me because the heat takes it out of me, but autumn is coming and I know I can do some stellar spellwork around this time. A friend asked me to do some manifestation for her, so I am going to try and do the best I can. It's a little bit trickier doing stuff for other people because you're not in their head, but since we have similar goals, I just focused on that. Also, on a random note, a ladybug landed on me today. If I know anything, I know that's a sign of good luck :)

This is an update to my earlier log. I recently found a new library job opportunity, FULL TIME, close to where I live, in a good area, and a decent salary! So I sent them an email. I am begging the universe and all the gods that will listen about this. I prayed to Lady Aphrodite for attractiveness and magnetism, to Queen Hera for confidence and command, and to my cherished Lady Hestia for peace and adeptness in my civic duty for this job. I burned the last of one of my most favorite incenses (honeysuckle) for the gods, and I pray that they find it sufficient. Then, on a whim, I pulled a tarot card and got The World. I could have cried (I actually did). Manifestations coming to reality, the successful completing of a cycle, wholeness, happiness, and belonging? It's everything I could have wanted, and I will take it as a sign that the gods are watching out for me, no matter the outcome. Blessed be and praise the gods <3

The most recent tarot pull I did was The Magician. Honestly, manifesting this as best as I can, because I KNOW I have the power in me to make my dreams and wishes happen, I just get so tired all the time. And forgetful.

Today I went out, even though it was oppressively hot. I saw some woodland lettuce, Snow squarestem, Panicledleaf Tick Trefoil, and Lateflowering thoroughwort.
