Ok, #witchy folks who use #crystals: if you were gonna make a fact sheet about each of your stones/crystals as part of a #grimoire, what all would you include? Place of origin, color, and metaphysical properties all seem obvious, but anything else?

The schadenfreude is so delicious!!!

What’s going on at #AsatruFolkAssembly? Purge? Implosion? BOTH. One member fears they’ll lose the best thing they had since — and we’re not making this up — the Third Reich. @SPLC @ADLSoutheast

@OceanKeltoi @J17apologetics I also agree from an academic perspective per my training. Biblical scholar Dan McClellan very much agrees with this notion. It makes me laugh when people act like this is a fringe notion

It was small, but I performed a ritual for the first time in a long time today to burn away the gunk from last year and start anew. And took a drive to let it all fly away in the wind

And I’m glad to see more media exploring and showcasing characters for whom the holidays are really tough. It’s truly cathartic.

I’ve never been a big Christmas person. I hate the cold, I hate snow, just the whole thing. Add in family trauma & never having had a Christmas at my own home until the pandemic, it’s a lot. But it just dawned on me as I watch my kids do math facts as consequence for misbehavior

in my life. I need to look for ways to add joy in the time of the year that’s the hardest for me. It will be nothing but a boon to celebrate the darkest night and the return of the sun again. Beannacht de beannachtaí ar na Trí.

@BenBird53920553 Although it’s not a church, so depending on why you’re asking, that could change whether Wicca counts for you or not.

[ModSouthrnPolytheist @SthrnPolytheist]

@BenBird53920553 Wicca has what they refer to as “inner court” material that is specific to that particular tradition and sometimes to a particular coven. So, yeah.

@mattxiv Did you know there’s a block button? Jfc that’s ridiculous

Research into Norse occupation and influence in Ireland highlights the creation of the major cities and how Irish medieval manuscripts reflected the shifts in culture.

Just got word that a local church is warning people to stay away from our event on Sunday (along with the evils of astrology, horoscopes, tarot cards, psychics, reiki, yoga, & ouija boards) and prescribes (checks notes) using their own form of spellcraft and magic instead.

@KanielaIng Why are they LAUGHING?!

[ModSouthrnPolytheist @SthrnPolytheist]

I know there were hurt feelings & some shady things that happened, but I really wish we could get at least ONE episode of #Charmed w/ Piper, Prue, Phoebe, & Paige alongside Mel, Maggie, Macy, & (Ma)Kaela. Just for the fans! But I know that’s highly unlikely at best. @cw_charmed

[ModSouthrnPolytheist @SthrnPolytheist]

I made it to S3 of the #Charmed reboot and I think they’ve really hit their stride now. Took some time, but I’m really enjoying this season!

[ModSouthrnPolytheist @SthrnPolytheist]

@OceanKeltoi Interesting!!

[ModSouthrnPolytheist @SthrnPolytheist]

@iodhadh I blame for *gestures wildly*

[ModSouthrnPolytheist @SthrnPolytheist]

Absolutely tf not. She’s goin outta town tomorrow if all goes well & I’ll absolutely be #cleansing and #warding this place. I’ve felt so much safer that here than the old house that I’ve been a little lax. I know we’re not in #Appalachia, but we ain’t that far & things can move.

[ModSouthrnPolytheist @SthrnPolytheist]

My mom just walked back in the house yelling “WHAT?!?” to which I came around the corner looking confused. She said it again then & I said, “I didn’t say any thing.” If you’re from or ever lived in #Appalachia very long, you may know where this is goin.

[ModSouthrnPolytheist @SthrnPolytheist]

“Shut the door & lock it.” She did & I realized I’d never told her about the time this happened to me in the woods, about the #folklore, & why you don’t respond. THEN she tells me that every once in a while she thinks she hears me call out to her during the night!!
