Trying to find meaningful words to explain how it can be true that you can call to a spirit of a plant and have it answer, but should never ever assume that a given thing (a plant, animal, crystal, place, storm) is always, in and of itself, an enspirited being.

Sometimes they are. Sometimes they aren't.

Sgiach is the personification of the Isle of Skye. Old Magick was thought to only remain on said island. Old Magick responds to Sgiach because she is the personification of this island.

Old Magick also responds to Zoey. Do you see where this is going?

That's right: We're heading straight into ~*racism*~!

Old Magick responds to Zoey because Zoey is the personification of Oklahoma, which holds Old Magick in its earth. Zoey is the personification of Oklahoma and can wield Old Magick because she is Cherokee.

Alright, I've touched on these problems before, but let's run through them again:

Cherokee people are not indigenous to Oklahoma. They were forcibly relocated there through the Removal Act in a process known as The Trail of Tears.

Cherokee and other North American peoples don't believe the earth/nature are source of magic, at least not the way we conceive of magic. Nature is alive, enspirited, brethren, etc. It is something to respect and coexist alongside, not something you control, harness, master, etc. Drawing energy from the earth and manifesting it as magic feels much more pagan/Wiccan/Druidic to me, though I could be wrong.

Cherokee definitely didn't believe in Old Magick the way vampyres do, unless that is an alternate history unique to this world - which was never established, let alone explored, so I'm assuming that's not the intent.

Even speaking about the presence of magic in terms of state boundaries is inherently nonsensical because indigenous people didn't mark territory based on these boundaries. Why would their spirituality and beliefs reflect political boundaries for a state that wasn't officially founded until the early 1900s? Even if Cherokee people were indigenous to that region, they wouldn't conceive of it based on modern land divisions. The idea that Old Magick abides these divisions is also ludicrous. It's one thing when magic is specific to an island - islands are inherently isolated - but a landlocked region in the middle of a continent? Absolutely absurd.

This is Revavroom. It's a Steel/Poison type Pokemon, based on a car engine. An old scrap car engine is enspirited and constructs a body resembling that of an automobile. Its highest stat is (physical) Attack, with a modest base of 119. Its natural learnset includes a lot of Poison, Steel and Normal-type moves. Let's take a look at its available TM moves.

Here is a partial selection of Revavroom's TM moves. Cool, makes sense... wait, Rain Dance? How does that fit? That's the only Water-type move it learns, and its only other setup-y moves are Toxic Spikes and Sunny Day. Revavroom doesn't have anything that could make use of rainy weather. Looking at Revavroom's set, it makes me think... something's missing! An incredibly specific and somewhat thinly distributed move that would be right at home in the learnset of a physical attacker AND a car. ...

...

There's a distinct lack of Revavroom here. In fact, there's a distinct lack of most horse pokemon, as well. My original thought when I realised that Revavroom doesn't learn High Horsepower was "huh, maybe it's just the signature move for Mudsdale and didn't get distributed", but I was wrong. So now I'm wondering... who looked at Revavroom's set and went 'yeah, the car can summon rain but it can't summon its innate horsepower to ram a foe'

My son... who hurt you... why does Gamefreak hate you so much...

I'm back from my week in the forest and I've had such a lovely time. Discovered an extremely enspirited forest, had a fantastic digital detox, and wrote a ghost story about corruption, contagion and mycelium.

For many pagans, the desire for deeper connection and communion with the world around us is what drew us to paganism in the first place. We sense that the land we live on is more than an address. Our region has history, foods and flavors that are native or naturalized to this specific place, and a unique sacred rhythm of the passage of seasons.

Many pagans are also animistic. We see the land as more than an arrangement of cells: it is sentient and enspirited in a very real way. For most pagans, our spiritual practice is a combination of history, tradition and geographic location.

Our High Holidays follow the ebb and flow of the seasons. Right now, we are between two of our harvest holidays: Harvest Home (sometimes called Mabon) on the autumnal equinox and Samhain on Oct. 31. Both holidays celebrate harvests of different kinds and include customs that involve food. What we eat and the intention with which we do so can be a profound source of connection. When we gather our ingredients locally, we are intentionally connecting to the land we live on.

It’s been so heartening to see the local food movement gaining steam. Here in Frederick, several of our grocery stores carry local produce and this region is home to an abundance of Farmer’s Markets. Along with those resources, pick-your-own orchards and farms are in full swing and offer opportunities for wonderful outings. You can pick ingredients for an autumnal feast, wander through a corn maze, enjoy some apple cider and more all in one stop.

Right now, our region is lush with fall fruits and veggies: apples, persimmon, and pears, brassicas like broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and cauliflower, root veggies like fennel, kohlrabi, leeks, turnips and onions, winter squash like pumpkin, butternut, and acorn, and delicious greens like chard, collards, and spinach, and so much more. With such a varied bounty, planning a menu that incorporates local ingredients offers an abundance of choice.

Creating a feast that celebrates the season, land, and our place within it begins with choosing recipes. What foods do you think of as autumnal? Are there particular flavors or ingredients that stand out? Or, are there some fall fruits or vegetables you’re curious about but haven’t tried cooking yet? Recipes can be traditional, familial, or regional. Our region is the unceded, ancestral land of the Piscatway-Conoy tribe. One wonderful way to connect to the history of our land is to look up First Nations recipes and incorporate them into your celebration.

While you’re cooking, take time to imagine all the different people who helped grow and raise the ingredients you’re using and feel gratitude for their work. Visualize the full meal and the result you’d like it to have: everyone gathered around the table, laughing and talking. Stir, measure, chop, and baste intentions and gratitude into the food as you go. The act of preparing a dish, or a full meal, can be profoundly spiritual when approached from a place of intention and focus.

Another way pagans prepare for a feast is through how we decorate our homes and feasting tables for the holiday (or season) we’re celebrating. Consider gathering some natural, autumnal items from the environment around you: acorns, pine cones, autumn leaves, small winter squash and fall flowers can all be incorporated in general home decor as well as table decorations. The colors we tend to use are all autumnal: browns, golds, russets and deep oranges.

As you sit down to your feast, take a moment to feel gratitude for the food on the table and the company around you. Contemplate your place in the turning of the season and the way autumn is present in your life right now. If your dining companions are open to it, share some of your favorite aspects of this change of seasons or talk about a few things you’re grateful for. Adding a blessing can be a wonderful way to remind everyone that dining together on a feast day is both joyous and sacred. You can create your own blessing for your gathering, speak extemporaneously, or use a preexisting blessing.

The blessing my family uses (and you are welcome to adopt it):

Blessed the seed that grew from dark Earth

Blessed the fruits of the harvest

Blessed the hands that made us this food

And may blessings be upon us

May your autumn be blessed with delicious food, joyful company, and deep connection.

began referring to it as a "not-movement". [25]

In organising the event, Hay handled the political issues, Burnside the logistics and mechanics, Kilhefner the budgetary and administrative side, and Walker was to be its spiritual leader. [26] A flier, written by Kilhefner,

[4] advertising the event was released and proclaimed that gays had a place in the

"paradigm shift" of the New Age, and quoted Mark Satin and Aleister Crowley alongside Hay;

these fliers were sent out to gay and leftist bookstores as well as gay community centres and health food stores. [27]

Around 220 men turned up to the event, despite the fact that the Ashram could only accommodate around 75. [28] Hay gave a welcoming speech in which he outlined his ideas regarding Subject-SUBJECT consciousness, calling on those assembled to "throw off the ugly green frogskin of hetero-imitation to find the shining Faerie prince beneath". [28] Rather than being referred to as "workshops", the events that took place were known as "Faerie circles" 28 and were on such varied subjects as massage, nutrition, local botany, healing energy, the politics of gay enspiritment, English country dancing, and auto-fellatio. [29] Those assembled took part in spontaneous rituals, providing invocations to spirits and performing blessings and chants, 28] with most participants discarding the majority of theirs CLONES
