The person who re-blogged this wants you to know that they are open to questions regarding their spiritual path, witchcraft and faith, and in fact, would love to talk about their spiritual path with you and have a casual talk!!

(this applies to me pspspsps HMU , don't hesitate, i am always open to respectful discussion of our spiritual paths and just being friends!!)

I started work again last night on this red work piece. The design is from the same vintage Czechoslovakian pattern book as the bottom piece that is used in May celebrations. The current piece is intended for use at the winter solstice.

your yearly reminder that the co-called "veles night" aka "slavic halloween" is not a traditional slavic holiday and was made up by a russian fascist and conspiracy theorist veleslav (real name ilya) cherkasov, who, among his works that deal with "reconstruction" of slavic traditional religion, also has books about russians being the original pure aryan race that came from hyperborea and genetically possess the "true vedic wisdom". Yeah

a working witch’s guide to paganism in the office

i saw a post recently from someone wishing they could incorporate their practice into their workplace without judgement so here are some ways i do it

essential oils are a great way to cleanse your space/bring in specific energies without bringing attention to your beliefs especially as they’re so popular across the board, i keep a spray bottle with a homemade mix of oils on my desk and once a week i walk around my room spraying and setting my intentions

animal imagery/figures in devotion to your gods, most deities have at least one animal associated to them and something cute and small won’t draw any attention, i keep a little crow plush on my desk in devotion to one of my gods and everyone else thinks it’s just a little decoration

plants! as a green witch/herbalist i know not everyone might share this sentiment but i work so closely with nature that having my work space filled with plants helps me still feel very connected and centered without a second thought

spell jars/sachets can be easily tucked away in desk drawers, i keep one filled with herbs for success hidden away in my filing cabinet and take it out to refresh it in times of high stress

Slavs and Vikings Festival in Wolin, Poland

The Slavs and Vikings Festival is one of the largest early-medieval events in the world. There are archery and spear-throwing competitions, games and contests for kids, craft-making presentations demonstrating how jewelry, coins, horns, and amber were created, live music, readings, and much more.

Wolin is a town located on Poland’s largest island (of the same name) on the coast of the Baltic Sea. It's a City of History, whose glory days date back to 1000 years ago. In the early Middle Ages, it was one of the largest and most powerful cities in this part of Europe, and ranked among the most important ports of the Baltic Sea. Wolin is considered to have been the gateway through which Scandinavians traveled southwards from the Baltic Sea to inland Piast state.

Your offerings to the Gods never have to be over the top. Even a glass of water offered with true devotion and gratitude will get you much closer to the Gods than a diamond offered without them.
