I was in such a rush I didn’t get any closeups of my costume. But I’m thinking of redoing it later this week so I can get some better shots. But here I am as a celestial sorceress, and my sister as Ella from Siege. #Halloween #costume #witch #sorceress #enchantress #lunar #celestial https://www.instagram.com/p/B4Vzg_ol8EoFcdygvLpU7PmzddY4BPZ-xU5vMc0/?igshid=1ubcmxr7k3ohz
Celestial witches get most of their energies from cosmic and celestial bodies. AKA anything outer space, really :) They’re one of my favorite witches (all witches are my favorite lol) so of course I had to do a masterlist (I had to do it to ‘em).
Also, there are so many correspondences. But as always, you don’t have to research all of them to be considered a Cosmic/Celestial witch.
Enjoy!

O Great Lady, who did come into being in the sky, who are mighty. Who does make happy, and does fill every place (or being), with your beauty, The whole earth is under you, you have taken possession of it. You have encompassed the earth, everything is in your two hands, -excerpt from hymn to Nut in pyramid texts.
Nut can be a patient name. Great in her love and protection. She is the expanse of the sky above, a part of life and death. She takes unto her the Akh and places them amongst the stars within her. She is a great warmth and comfort, and creating her here was a great joy for me.
This particular piece wanted to have the soft tones of a sunset and the eternally beauty of the aurora borealis. They wash the sky and touch the stars with their vibrancy, and embrace Nut in the eternal wonder and warmth of this world.
If you want to see what pieces I’m working on, what is new and up and coming as well as get first chances at any of my work, please follow me on our Patron.
Glowing in mostly purple and green colors, a newly discovered celestial phenomenon is sparking the interest of scientists, photographers and astronauts. The display was initially discovered by a group of citizen scientists who took pictures of the unusual lights and playfully named them “Steve.”
When scientists got involved and learned more about these purples and greens, they wanted to keep the name as an homage to its initial name and citizen science discoverers. Now it is STEVE, short for Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement.
STEVE occurs closer to the equator than where most aurora appear – for example, Southern Canada – in areas known as the sub-auroral zone. Because auroral activity in this zone is not well researched, studying STEVE will help scientists learn about the chemical and physical processes going on there. This helps us paint a better picture of how Earth’s magnetic fields function and interact with charged particles in space. Ultimately, scientists can use this information to better understand the space weather near Earth, which can interfere with satellites and communications signals.
Want to become a citizen scientist and help us learn more about STEVE? You can submit your photos to a citizen science project called Aurorasaurus, funded by NASA and the National Science Foundation. Aurorasaurus tracks appearances of auroras – and now STEVE – around the world through reports and photographs submitted via a mobile app and on aurorasaurus.org.
Here are six tips from what we have learned so far to help you spot STEVE:
1. STEVE is a very narrow arc, aligned East-West, and extends for hundreds or thousands of miles.
2. STEVE mostly emits light in purple hues. Sometimes the phenomenon is accompanied by a short-lived, rapidly evolving green picket fence structure (example below).
4.STEVE appears closer to the equator than where normal – often green – auroras appear. It appears approximately 5-10° further south in the Northern hemisphere. This means it could appear overhead at latitudes similar to Calgary, Canada. The phenomenon has been reported from the United Kingdom, Canada, Alaska, northern US states, and New Zealand.
5. STEVE has only been spotted so far in the presence of an aurora (but auroras often occur without STEVE). Scientists are investigating to learn more about how the two phenomena are connected.
6. STEVE may only appear in certain seasons. It was not observed from October 2016 to February 2017. It also was not seen from October 2017 to February 2018.
STEVE (and aurora) sightings can be reported at www.aurorasaurus.org or with the Aurorasaurus free mobile apps on Android and iOS. Anyone can sign up, receive alerts, and submit reports for free.

Base-game compatible
30 swatches each (1 not pictured)
Celestial patterns, pastels, fall berries, fall leaves, Christmas-inspired & sparkling swatches
Heels, socks & hair by me, sneakers & necklace by Maxis
I hope you like it ♡

I know a lot of people that played 4e miss being able to play a Deva and for some an Aasimar doesn’t cut it. So, I decided to make a simplified 5th edition version of a playable Deva race! Enjoy.

Well I’m sitting in hospital unexpectedly - nothing too serious. I was going to post this last night but I was in too much pain.
So this is a proof of concept. The word “magical” is used far too much but that was my ambition. Something of unknown use and unknown provenance.
Proof of concept is the build I make all the mistakes on - motor too fast, planets too large and high, LEDs wiring wrong and ugly battery packs. Internally this might not be saleable quality.
The video isn’t great, sorry. When I get home I will take some still photos of all the decorations and detail. It was inspired by those magnetic ballerina jewellery boxes from the 1960s. She would dance around a mirror when the box was opened.
I initially covered the neodymium magnets and attached the planet on a post. Wrong. They fell down, stuck to each other with such force they ended up broken. So I’ve gone for simple using the magnetic force to hold the metal spheres. I will include several spare magnets and planets.
I’ve been waiting to make these for a long time. Finally had all the ingredients and a bit of bravery. What many people don’t realise is making something new is always a risk, possibly ruining expensive supplies. Fortunately these turned out well. A simple glass locket filled with a vintage pocket watch spring, tiny metallic “planet” spheres, a half round golden “sun” all fixed in place with clear resin. It makes for a subtle yet intriguing piece of jewelry. Understated.
The tiny ones are seriously small - the lockets are under an inch wide. I’ve attempted some reality to the planets: Mercury is tiny and silver, Venus earth’s sister planet is gold and the same size as Earth, Earth is silver, Mars smaller than Earth and copper. The giants start with Jupiter large in copper, Saturn slightly smaller than Jupiter and silver tone, Uranus is gold, Neptune is smaller and silver and finally, Pluto, tiny and metallic black. I can’t keep any accuracy in relation to the size of the sun - it’s seriously huge in comparison.
The larger one, just over an inch wide, was gold but arrived very scratched. Instead of it sitting in my pile of rejects I decided to “distress” the patina to a brushed copper with the original gold poking through in places. It works. It also has a very light dusting of holographic glitter as a star field.
If there is the demand I thought about customising these. With a birth date, time and place I can generate a natal sun chart - where the planets were at the time of their birth. If there is serious clumping I might have to take some artistic license when positioning all the planets. It would require a 2 week build time for supplies and for the resin layers to cure.
If you are looking for a masculine gift I can put them on a black rubber or leather cord.
