The little girl who enjoyed putting salt on the slugs grows up to be a woman. These are her thoughts. Why am I talking in the third person?

Where the light touches, where the water dries, the boundaries and rules are all shifting a bit in the winds of change. Virgo is upon us and perception falls wayside to perfection so that the details can weave our future fabric for flag waving. We pay attention to the moving lines and territorial spaces we can create, grow, and thrive... And where we cannot. We see them tandem against each other and usually side by side, though worlds apart. So close, and yet so far. You see it, don't you? Where are YOU headed? #witchesofinstagram #mentalhealth #virgo #GypsyMagic #grief #minnesota #voodoo #völva #artist #artistsoninstagram #history #ancestors #divination #witch #nature #beach #lakelife #growth #photography #see #landscape #gonorth #astrology #witchery (at Pirates Cove Adventure Golf) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1ox-nvlFdE/?igshid=162y7guf87e4v

Making bread with papa Mike. The Moon is waning through Cancer right now, and domestic thoughts begin to hang like an emotional web in our mind. Aches, pulls, tears, yearning to be alone and together, at the same time. To be handled, coddled, cuddled and needed... Then left alone to rise, grow, fester. No little fingers poking or deflating the magic, till the perfect time to heat! Under pressure, fire, and with time...amazing things happen. Then, we can make bread the same way we made a life milestone, breaking bread to celebrate, when the crowd swarms the smells of something pure and delicious. Then, repeat the cycle when you, or bread, has been exhausted. #witchesofinstagram #kids #mentalhealth #GypsyMagic #minnesota #voodoo #völva #artist #artistsoninstagram #history #ancestors #divination #witch #nature #grandpa #bread #astrology (at Bane Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1oSxAplr-0/?igshid=hi8dn2l2i441

Growth is natural. You don't have to force it and you don't have to worry about being right. Wherever the universe has planted you, is where you will grow. So often we try to change, push, force... When the only truth that remains constant is our effort, intention and growth! Like this small dandylion growing in the crevices of an ancient dinosaur; Delicate misplaced beauty. Still beautiful. I bet it wasn't easy and I bet all the other flowers wonder what in the world this little guy is doing. However, It was the bold, bright yellow blossom standing Stark against the rusting metal of the war tank that made me get out of the car. The rare and the unique, The bold and the brave, Will do all the natural growing but maybe do it their own way despite it being a little rough or different. We are all growing, despite., and we're all beautiful for it. #photography #landscape #travelblogger #lakelife #nisswa #flower #growth (at Nisswa American Legion) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1m2sWgFmtY/?igshid=bz24nk7nmgoz

Venus powers erupting, Virgo critiquing and I'm revamping myself from the inside out. Endometriosis, PCOS, anxiety from PTSD all restrict those sexual energies and somedays it's hard. Hard to feel as though you can race time, pause aging, erase lines, grow an inch, lose a pound, or pout perfectly when your insides are screaming as loud as those on the outside. It's hard, but not impossible. You must sit in that space, feel the hurt, and own your hand. Empower despite. How do you celebrate Venus? I like to get my nails done, shave the legs, and break out a dress! #witchesofinstagram #mentalhealth #astrology #GypsyMagic #minnesota #voodoo #völva #artist #artistsoninstagram #history #ancestors #divination #witch #pcos #oracle #virgo #venus #sickgirlsclub https://www.instagram.com/p/B1jOsZlFxLI/?igshid=14lys5blyq7n6

This diamond symbol shown is an alchemical, mystical, and astrological symbol for “Earth.” Slow moving growth, easy to miss, but illustrating life all around us. "The earth has long been worshipped by ancient mystics. It is a representation of harmony, stability, and oneness with all things – a communal arena in which the core (center point of the 4 diamond cross) represents a foundational energy of unity and well-being." Earth magic is rooted in the ideology that all things of the earth are born from her, and therefore vibrate with earth energy. Early mystics and alchemists believed this earth energy could be drawn from all things, and ultimately used for further clarification. Divination all around us. This clarification came in the form of manipulation of vibrations (earth energy waves), drawing elements into an experience; interpreting patterns within the vibrations (seeking answers). Clearly seeing, seeing clearly. #witchesofinstagram #mentalhealth #earth #GypsyMagic #minnesota #voodoo #völva #artist #artistsoninstagram #history #ancestors #divination #witch #yellow #astrology (at Nisswa, Minnesota) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1fR8FJFNXb/?igshid=6armj2hyze9p

The Virgo energy flowing within me wants to obsess over the details. Wondering what species of flower and how many ways it can be used, Each time I pass a bewildering blossom. The idea is to see the details that help us feel connected; warning to perfection. I may have spent 10 minutes trying to figure out the name of this twig with strange octopus like tentacles... Curious and getting lost without remembering the reason it stole my gaze. The white and yellow colors are vibrating frequencies for which my hermetic-witch heart is pleased. Yellow for joy, white for purity... And yet I still do not know its name. I want to know how to pluck and apply it to myself, and without the name to command the control, one can get lost... I command the Virgo energies to help me see the forest and the trees. #witchesofinstagram #virgo #mentalhealth #GypsyMagic #minnesota #voodoo #völva #artist #artistsoninstagram #history #ancestors #divination #witch #nature #plants #beone #travelblogger #landscape #photography #lovethyself (at West Twin Lake) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1eI80hlTpq/?igshid=xc8wrocn6fxa

Virgo: the people must know! Tomorrow, Mars enters Virgo, which means we start getting critical. As this fire planet goes into Earth, you will assert yourself in a self-disciplined, precise, systematic, orderly, calculating, careful, practical, controlled and dignified manner - possessing skills for detailed work, craftsmanship, good organizational ability and a sense of responsibility. Like a farmer who is ready to plant crops after the fires burn out. "Do or do not. There is no try." -Yoda #witchesofinstagram #mentalhealth #astro #GypsyMagic #minnesota #voodoo #völva #artist #artistsoninstagram #history #ancestors #divination #witch #portrait #virgo #mars (at Middle Cullen Lake) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1SDlXrFJzI/?igshid=ufd6hd1a0xdf

Local art. Standing there, taking the photo, and trying my darndest to line myself up to the right perspective; Hoping to capture Symmetry. Gestalt psychology tells us that if closure and symmetry are present, the mind's eye can absorb information without stress. The upcoming Virgo season has us milling over the details, which can both be an amazing tool for clear perspective, but also we can get easily caught in the Web of perfectionism. Be able to use the details but then release the stress to the universe. Sometimes the slightly crooked view has us prioritizing one thing over the other and doing a bit of the work for us. That is OK. Let go of the reins my Virgo friends. Let the vibes of Venus help you see perfection, despite. #witchesofinstagram #mentalhealth #GypsyMagic #minnesota #voodoo #völva #artist #artistsoninstagram #kcmo #psychology (at Parkville, Missouri) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1RGOJ-F_t6/?igshid=5gp3ao75c40t

"I have kissed honey lips Felt the healing in the fingertips It burned like fire This burning desire I have spoke with the tongue of angels I have held the hand of a devil It was warm in the night I was cold as a stone But I still haven't found What I'm looking for But I still haven't found What I'm looking for I believe in the Kingdom come Then all the colors will bleed into one Bleed into one But yes, I'm still running You broke the bonds and you loosened chains carried the cross of my shame, of my shame You know I believe it But I still haven't found What I'm looking for..." Full Moon in Aquarius has us feeling, hoping, and releasing our pain of control. Be okay with (dare enjoy?) the process, neigh privilege, of searching for what we're looking for. #witchesofinstagram #mentalhealth #fullmoon #GypsyMagic #minnesota #voodoo #völva #artist #artistsoninstagram #history #ancestors #divination #witch #nature #beach #lakelife #photography #landscape #travelblogger #aquarius (at Outing, Minnesota) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1P7fWFlJFi/?igshid=2mj1vfxmthz7

"Aren't the clouds beautiful? They look like big balls of cotton...I could just lie here all day, and watch them drift by... If you use your imagination, you can see lots of things in the cloud formations... What do you think you see, Linus?" "Well, those clouds up there look like the map of the British Honduras on the Caribbean... That cloud up there looks a little like the profile of Thomas Eakins, the famous painter and sculptor... And that group of clouds over there gives me the impression of the stoning of Stephen... I can see the apostle Paul standing there to one side..." "Uh huh... That's very good... What do you see in the clouds, Charlie Brown?" "Well, I was going to say I saw a ducky and a horsie, but I changed my mind!" Charles M. Schulz, The Complete Peanuts, Vol. 5: 1959-1960 Back home in Minnesota. #psychology #momlife #minnesota #explore #lakelife #photography #landscape #schultz #travelblogger #read #mnproud #monday #iowa (at Clear Lake, Iowa) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1FLc97F_jZ/?igshid=8t9kxn0henru

Take a seat. A moment to explore your alchemy verb; how you transform energy. Think on how energy comes to you, stressing the physical body, only needing to move and change the energy. Sit, marinate, and then process to the point of true release. Easier said than done. I like to think, talk, and creatively let my pain pour into the world; allowing the Universe to recycle it all. However, like most divine processes, it is not hard to do but simply hard in DOING. DO IT. stop trying. You've thought about it long enough. Now, do. Change that energy and transform. #witchesofinstagram #mentalhealth #parkville #GypsyMagic #minnesota #voodoo #völva #artist #artistsoninstagram #history #ancestors #divination #witch #do #nature #coffee #kcmo (at Parkville Coffee) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1CKzl_FPfi/?igshid=85ca03dpikal

The Fern. I first think of my grandmother Viola Fern, then to family. She was a strong pillar of tradition and domestic strength; like the fern. She was always the most gentle and kind energy in the Room, but yet seemed deeply connected to helping support everyone within her community and beyond; like the fern. Even though she is not present with me now, like the fern that is not seen in the forest, a leafy blossom is sprouting somewhere with roots deeply and safely nestled within the soil below. Today I leave my husband and 2 small boys alone with the new puppy to embark Upon a fun adventure back home... 600+ miles 4 states Countless songs and priceless moments, but a connection deeper, too... "Ferns symbolize sincerity towards others. It can also be a symbol of magic, fascination, confidence, shelter, discretion, reverie and a secret bond of love." I celebrate these things within myself that were passed down to me by my ancestors and I share it with the world. #witchesofinstagram #mentalhealth #fern #GypsyMagic #gma #minnesota #voodoo #völva #artist #kcmo #artistsoninstagram #history #ancestors #divination #witch #nature #plants #travelblogger #love #landscape #Thursday #photography #macro #lovethyself #grief (at Pequot Lakes, Minnesota) https://www.instagram.com/p/B06EC0gllWh/?igshid=1uhruimcy8qdu

Lots of release lately, as I write my book about my mom. Our story is 6 feet under and so much reaches beyond the grave at me... Can roses bloom here? "Turn down these voices inside my head Lay down with me Tell me no lies Just hold me close, don't patronize Don't patronize me 'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel something it won't Here in the dark, in these final hours I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power But you won't, no you won't 'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't." #witchesofinstagram #mentalhealth #momlife #GypsyMagic #minnesota #voodoo #völva #artist #artistsoninstagram #history #ancestors #divination #witch #nature #plants #mom #travelblogger #monday #landscape #photography #lovethyself #grief (at Cross Lake, Minnesota) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0yybm4Fy0F/?igshid=yryn6ueafntw

Traditionally, thistle has been used for purification, to bring spiritual aid to the home, to protect from evil, and is associated with Mars, Aries and Fire. Growing them in your garden encourages protection, strength and healing.  Most are edible and some even quite nutritious but the small thistles and thorns make them difficult to harvest and often too feisty to deal with. Many cultures have sharman's and witches using thistle for protection salt and hexing spells; a strong ward of space. A Cherokee native taught me that fresh the sole flowers dropped and steaming water is a magical concoction to commune with spirits. As long as the elixir talks with the air (steams), you can talk with spirits. I always keep thistle nearby. #witchesofinstagram #mentalhealth #GypsyMagic #minnesota #voodoo #völva #artist #artistsoninstagram #history #ancestors (at Cross Lake, Minnesota) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0yM0l5gNaE/?igshid=sa8l34oncllk

"If by chance I have omitted anything more or less proper or necessary, I beg forgiveness, since there is no one who is without fault and circumspect in all matters." Leonardo Fibonacci As I lay on the beach with my feet in the sand and my ears tuned to the sound of the waves I can see even in the smallest of details, perfection. A golden spiral reminding me that the smallest seed of intension is pure and special. Not perfect but perfect, in that. #witchesofinstagram #mentalhealth #soulfood #GypsyMagic #shell #minnesota #voodoo #völva #artist #sunday #artistsoninstagram #history #ancestors #divination #witch #nature #beach #sinti #spiritual #grief #lakelife #photography #landscape #travelblogger (at Whitefish Chain) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0wyYa-gG7g/?igshid=z8aghyaoulhl
