GET IN, WITCHES! We’re witching for a warming planet, and we’re starting with a primer on climate change: What is Climate Change? What Causes it? How do we fix it? Are we fucked? Read on to learn more! #witchsky #pagansky #druidsky #heathensky witchingforawarmingplanet.substack.com/p/the-basics...

Here’s the thing with families: I wish I could explain, but it’s all “you had to be there.” All I can say is that the commentary of a 94 year old trying to decide whether to watch the National Air Guitar Championships, snowmobile racing or The Magnificent Seven is…exasperating entertainment.

We all know to avoid the perils of toxic positivity. But in doing so, we need to make sure we don’t eliminate our capacity for Joy. We need Joy to make a better future. #pagansky #witchsky #heathensky #druidsky Read on for more: open.substack.com/pub/alythia/...

Blessed Imbolc, y’all! #pagansky #witchsky #druidsky

We will never fix our broken politics until we fix our broken values. That’s a big job. Here are some thoughts on where to start: open.substack.com/pub/alythia/...

The holiday we call Imbolc is almost here! Here’s a little thing I wrote anwhile back about what it is and why we need it, now more than ever. Light it up, witches! #witchsky #druidsky #pagansky open.substack.com/pub/alythia/...

So part of my strategy of calibrating exposure to the crazy out there is watching “The Expanse.” And I just gotta say: Shohreh Aghdashloo is absolutely everything. I want her wardrobe. I love her mind. She’s the most devastatingly amazing thing about a show that’s chock-a-block with amazing….

Some feminists really want to claim the identity of witch. Here’s what they need to consider: open.substack.com/pub/alythia/... #witchsky

We won’t be able to fix our broken politics until we have fixed our broken values and our broken communities.

Home. Slowly getting back into the nest. I have a credenza that is replete with candles that I light when it’s cold out and I want to be cozy in front of the TV. They are all aglow. And I am happy.

Sometimes what is best for me is to become a feral trash panda.

I really get irritated when people use lateness as a power move. They are capable of keeping time, but they want to deliver the “fuck you” of making you wait, so they can demonstrate their time is more important than yours. It’s not impressive — it’s rude and repugnant.

Yeah, I know I’m a witch because seeing the crescent moon bright in the sky makes me stop, and breathe, and exhale. #witchsky #pagansky

Here's a post from a New Year past offering a great divination spread I developed using the Wild Unknown Archetypes deck by artist Kim Krans. Enjoy! #witchsky #tarotsky #occultsky

May your New Year bring new pathways that hold new joys, new ideas, new endeavors, new strength, new energy, new friends, new love, and most of all, lots and lots of magic! #witchsky #pagansky #heathensky #occultsky

Aaaand the circus has arrived.

New blog post! #witchsky #pagansky #heathensky open.substack.com/pub/politica...

New blog post! It sounds weird as a witch to talk about “knowledge management” but it matters…read on to find out why: open.substack.com/pub/alythia/... #witchsky #pagansky #heathensky

My ex-husband (really good guy, not married but still family) got a new puppy. Named him Oberon. Wonders why the puppy won’t stop barking at things unseen. Had he told me what he was gonna do, I coulda warned him… as it is, done is done. #witchsky #pagansky

Wishing you Joy as you celebrate, whatever you celebrate….

The “chopsticks to eat cheese puffs” hack is life-changing. Never. Gets. Old.

Yule’s coming, and yeah I’m blogging about it! open.substack.com/pub/alythia/... #witchsky #yule

So….. my #witchsky folks, question for you: what do you wish you knew about climate change and/or what magic do you want to be able to do that might impact climate change?

With all that’s happening in the world and the holidays in full swing, we could all use more shielding #witchsky #occultsky

Men are so comfortable ascribing their woes to the actions of women that when you tell him to stop blaming women for his problems, he’ll say “I’m not blaming, I’m just stating a fact.” Dude is 93 and can’t remember what fucking day it is, but can still reflexively gaslight with the best of them.

How insecure in your masculinity must you be to require a coffee maker that on first glance more closely resembles a drill press? And then you make it in TEAL? This is deeply confusing. #ThingsAmazonTriedToSellMe
