🎶oh holy shiiittt🎶

Shit hit the fan really f*cking hard this last month! I was doing what I had told myself was "harmless" fun. But it wasn't harmless. It caused someone in my life a lot of pain. And so in return (me being an empath) it caused me twice the pain (my pain, plus their pain).

I am stepping back from here and a lot of other social media to focus on my spiritual and energetic growth. And I feel as though I cannot do that while being attached to my technology! I already miss you all more than I dare to say

Do you really want to know your future?

What if I told you that in your future you cause someone so much pain they don't want to continue living? Oh, you think you'll just avoid it? Well I can't see details, so you don't know who's pain you will cause. Knowing this doesn't change anything, except your worry and anxiety.

I thought....

Thought this full moon would finally give me back my "mojo"......lol, no. Still feel weird as f*ck and out of place. Not enough for some people, too much for others. I still see the signs that I'm doing what I should be, but I wish people could be more understanding of the new schit....😑

Ok rant over

Update!

I was able to do some meditation with the moonlight streaming on my face! Feel amazing now!!!

I have been making my own cleaner for years, I'll just add the dun bits now!

Simple Witchy Home Cleanser

Supplies:

Glass jar

Baking soda

Essential oils

Materials for decorating

Steps:

Add baking soda to glass jar.

Stir counterclockwise while adding essential oils that correspond with “removing” something. For example, I correspond sage essential oil with removing negative energy.

Stir clockwise while adding oils that correspond with “promoting” something. For example, I correspond lavender with peacefulness.

Create your own chants, prayers, or rhymes while mixing.

Decorate your jar with ribbons, sigils, whatever you like.

Charge your jar however you like best.

Sprinkle mixture into the carpet before vacumming away all the negativity and stale energy, leaving your home smelling amazing!

True story

You’ll catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.

But you’ll catch even more with a corpse of some sort.

Ok, gives me hope!😂 I'm tall and stacked!!

Freya Was Jacked

So there’s this story in Norse mythology, Þrymskviða. Compressed down, it goes like this: A Jotun steal Thor’s hammer Mjolnir and says he’ll only give it back if he’s given Freyja to marry, as she is the most beautiful goddess in all of existence. The gods argue over what to do for a while before Heimdall suggests they stick a bridal veil on Thor, says he’s Freyja, and pretend they’re giving Freyja (Thor) to the Jotun to marry so Thor can get close enough to the Jotun to steal Mjolnir back. 

Now typically when people talk about this story, it’s with an element of disbelieving comedy. “Oh my god, who would believe Thor was a woman, let alone Freyja, the most beautiful goddess in the world?” 

But I propose a different way to look at the story. 

See, different cultures have different beauty standards. Modern western beauty standards may be a delicate hourglass supermodel, but that’s not always been the case. Greece, for instance, depicted Aphrodite like this: 

Yeah. A Greek sculptor was told “sculpt the goddess of beauty” and they thought “alright, fat rolls, that’s where beauty is at, let’s do this”. And everybody else apparently agreed with them, because up went the statue. Beauty is a malleable concept is what I’m getting at. 

Now this is where it becomes relevant that Freyja is not just the goddess of love, sex, and beauty. She’s also the goddess of war. And the righteous dead. Goddess of war in the same Viking warrior culture that gave us shield maidens, women who wielded seven fucking kilogram (15 lbs) shields in combat. 

Sooooo … when the Norse storytellers said, “This is Freyja, goddess of war and the righteous dead, who rode giant murder cats into battle, she is the most beautiful goddess in the world”, I’m guessing they weren’t thinking of her as some willowy waif. No, I’m guessing they probably thought more along the lines of:

190 cm (6′3″), broad shoulders, built like a brick shithouse, with a jawline like whoa, and fully capable of murdering everything in her path.

Put in that context, the story of Thor dressing up as Freyja sounds less like a punchline about “how could anyone ever mistake Thor in a veil for Freyja?” and becomes more a case of “ohhhhhhhhhhh, no wonder all the gods thought this plan would work”. 

It did, by the way. The plan totally worked.
