Magic rarely needs an altar when the stove is hot. Stirring intention into the batter, seasoning an heirloom cast iron pan thatโs fed three generations, or leaving a crust of bread out by the back steps. How does folk practice live inside your everyday kitchen routine? #FolkWitchFriday
Ha! Real tho. ๐ซ ๐ซ ๐ซ
Probably the post responding to #FolkWitchFriday last week ๐คฃ๐ค
Synchronicities often happen in a combo of printed words & sometimes images.
A picture of plant calls to me, then I see an online article about them, then a mention in a print zine & so on. They can show up in a convo. Sometimes dream visitations.
The witch is a creature of weather. Wind-summoner. Drought-breaker. Cloud-reader. Flood-flyer. Mist-wearer. She adapts to it, she adjusts the weather to her favour. It's one of her most vital relationships. She wears it on her boots. She wears it on her skin. โ #EmilyCBanting #FolkWitchFriday
For me, synchronous signs are almost always songs repeating in my head. Otherwise, when spirits try to talk to me, I get several different signs with a common meaning. Like creatures that I associate with the night or the underworld showing up frequently. #FolkWitchFriday #WitchSky

Itโs wild how messages line up when youโre meant to get them. For me, itโs hawks screaming close overhead back to back, followed by strangers out in public saying the exact words tied to what Iโm chewing on. "Reality" really just turns the volume all the way up. #FolkWitchFriday #WitchSky #FolkWitch
I am so dense ๐๐ ๐ ๐
It's ok. They know this lol
So I'll usually get one symbol, EXACTLY repeated, in 3 separate, completely unrelated areas. Seriously. Even the pose of that horse is exactly the same, in the tea, that really random book cover, and that spot on the banana ๐ #FolkWitchFriday
When the world wants your attention, it starts repeating itself. Three sightings of the same creature, an odd phrase echoed by strangers, or a sudden sequence of strange coincidences. How do synchronicities show up when the universe is trying to get a word in edgewise? #FolkWitchFriday #WitchSky
โจ๐โจIt's said that if you catch a falling autumn leaf before it touches the ground, you will be granted a wish.

My cat is definitely liminal #folkwitchfriday
#FolkWitchFriday: the only creatures inside our home are dust bunnies & spiders. ๐ Our bird neighbors have us trained to turn on our electric pump water fountain for them every morning๐ฆ Sometimes I use the vibrations of the morning Birdsong to clear & reset my energy space๐ฆโโฌ๐

My cats alert me to spirits. Mr. Kitten loves when I record trance journeys. He tells me he is friends with the animal guardians of the forest. The moose, bear, and prehistoric salmon. Now he's recovering from a day of roofers pounding on the ceiling with the guardian stag. #FolkWitchFriday
For I am a salt-hag. I know gull gossip. I know the calling and quelling of storms. My hair is wind-braided. My lips wear rough salt kisses. I stand on the cliffs and read omens pulled by the tide. Be well and avoid my anger. โ #EmilyCBanting, 1982 #FolkWitchFriday #WitchSky
In traditional folklore and witchcraft, a cat's habit of sitting on thresholds, windowsills, or doorways made them natural sentinels who monitored what entered or left a space. They are creatures of liminal spaces, the betwixt and between.
