Reblog this on the first of the month for good luck all month long!

My mom’s fig tree has started growing again right as I’m finding my way back into my craft. She always says they only grow at a witch’s door, and we’ve had this pathetic little tree with two little leaves for years. Now it’s doubled in size and thriving - we didn’t do anything to it, either. It just knows the witch is in, I guess.

On April 16th 2025 the US federal government has proposed to change the interpretation of the endangered species act so that it no longer protects habitat.

This is open for public comment until the end of May 19th. Please comment and make your voice heard.

Wildlife need their habitat. If the ESA redefines harm so that habitat is no longer protected, the implications for wildlife would be catastrophic.

Are you having fun? Do you want to keep scrolling or are you just on autopilot?

Have you eaten today?

Have you consumed water today?

Do you need to go to the bathroom?

Have you slept recently?

Do you have any chores in process that you've forgotten about or are putting off? (Laundry that needs taken out of the machine, a dishwasher full of dishes that need put away, etc.)

Have you taken all your meds?

If the answer is "All good," feel free to keep scrolling!

But if any of these reminded you of something you need to do, please take care of yourself. 💕

"What radicalized you?"

Nothing.

I've just always held that fascism is bad and that all people deserve basic respect and human rights, along with food, healthcare, housing, and civil liberties.

And somewhere along the line, that became a radical opinion.

Hestia

Hestia, gracious goddess who sits at the heart

of each home, who lives in the heart of each one

who reveres you, each one who holds you dear, each one

who turns to you for strength and harmony. Hestia,

goddess most needful, goddess most serene, goddess

most esteemed, the heart of the city is yours

as well, great goddess; within your realm are those

who serve the state, who work for the good of all–

your blessings fall on the honest, goddess, your wrath

on the corrupt, on those who betray their trust

for gain. Defender of the householder, guardian

of the hearthfire, Hestia, I praise and honor you.

I need you to understand and to really listen when I tell you that the land knows you.

If you have spent months, years, decades living in the same place and exploring the same land I can promise you that the trees, the plants, the lakes and rivers, and the spirits will know and remember you.

You can call out to them and they will call out to you because they know you - they have for so so long, my love, and they love you, so much.

Trust me.
