Witchcraft is not consolatory hokum. It doesn't offer tepid answers to hard questions and even harsher circumstances. It offers us relationships with the land, its spirits and ourselves. Relationships may be rough and require work, but they get us through. – #EmilyCBanting #WitchSky

Well, to begin with today, it’s the 56th anniversary of the publication of the book which contains the only advice a chap really needs

Extract from Kathryn Paulsen’s 1970 work, The Complete Book of Magic and Witchcraft. The first line at the top of p.90 is: “You may fascinate a woman by giving her a piece of cheese”

In the tolling bell I hear a thousand dooms. Not just a new death, but all those parish deaths it has marked before. When we talk of living traditions, we do not think enough of the mortality implied in the phrase. We build and live atop ghost soil. - #DAKilroy, 1982
