Yesterday was our little taste tester’s 8th birthday! She’s the coolest. We’re bringing hot cocoa to her birthday party tomorrow, ‘cause there ain’t no party like a hot cocoa party.
I hope all of you are finding ways to stay warm in this cold weather!

I’ve said it before, but you just can’t beat the combination of hot cocoa and a cool walk in nature.

A cool walk in the trees with a hot cup of cocoa has to be one of the best things imaginable

“Eleanor looked up, surprised; the little girl was sliding back in her chair, sullenly refusing her milk, while her father frowned and her brother giggled and her mother said calmly, ‘She wants her cup of stars.’
Indeed yes, Eleanor thought; indeed, so do I; a cup of stars, of course.
'Her little cup,’ the mother was explaining, smiling apologetically at the waitress, who was thunderstruck at the thought that the mill’s good country milk was not rich enough for the little girl. 'It has stars in the bottom, and she always drinks her milk from it at home. She calls it her cup of stars because she can see the stars while she drinks her milk.’
The waitress nodded, unconvinced, and the mother told the little girl, 'You’ll have your milk from your cup of stars tonight when we get home. But just for now, just to be a very good little girl, will you take a little milk from this glass?’
Don’t do it, Eleanor told the little girl; insist on your cup of stars; once they have trapped you into being like everyone else you will never see your cup of stars again; don’t do it; and the little girl glanced at her, and smiled a little subtle, dimpling, wholly comprehending smile, and shook her head stubbornly at the glass. Brave girl, Eleanor thought; wise, brave girl.”
― Shirley Jackson, The Haunting of Hill House

We were promised snow today, but the weather didn’t deliver. Luckily, we still have hot cocoa to give us all the winter vibes! ❄️

Lore-wise, flying ointment is made from the fat boiled off of babies that were not baptized along with wolfsbane, hemlock, and belladonna. This was then rubbed on the witches body to help them fly. This is obviously not true, having started in 1458 at Linz, Austria.
The story goes, a man called Abraham the Jew published an account of a witch giving him an ointment and telling him to spread it over his pulse points. It is said that “Abraham had the sensation of flying through the air to a place he wanted to visit. When he awoke, the witch told him a different tale of her travels” so he then decided to see what was really happening by having the witch do this again while he did not, staying back to watch. “Instead of flying, he observed the witch fall to the floor and remain immobilized for hours; she woke with further tales. He concluded the unguent induced hallucinations of flying and other fantasies (Lois Martin, A Brief History of Witchcraft, pp. 49-50).”
“… the flying ointment would have acted as a “potent hallucinogen,” which adds an interesting twist to the standard relationship between society and witches. When we consider episodes like the Salem witch trials, we think of innocents being falsely accused; witches, however, suffered plenty of their own delusions.“
What would you guys like to know more about? I have a couple post ideas lined up and in progress, but I’m curious to know what everyone’s burning questions are!
Even just stuff like clarifications or another good mythological story summary are fine by me, just comment or reblog and let me know! :)
For any witch who doesn’t know, these signs DO invite the fae, especially when you set things around them like this person set a coin on the sign:
I won’t reiterate my entire fae post, but generally it is a poor idea to make deals with the fae. So unless you specialize in working with them and know EXACTLY what you’re doing, please watch out for these!! Especially in thew spring, these little garden décor things are rampant!
If you want to make a little fae garden without actually attracting anything, do not:
- accept or leave out food or drinks for them
- make a faery ring
- write letters to them
- verbally invite them, even as a joke
- insult them in some way
- give them your personal information like your name (see my fae post)
Here’s another tumblr user who has an amazing post about the fae and is a well educated fae witch - https://phae-undergrove.tumblr.com/post/676918896423550976/faeries

You can look in thrift stores for old objects that seem powerful, sometimes they have candles too! Not only is it environmentally friendly compared to buying all new stuff, but you can also utilize the old magic to make something new and possibly connect with something new!
Recycling is very good, it’s a nice way of giving back to nature!
A couple things to keep in mind:
- Absolutely keep in mind the auras/general vibes of each item you want to get and take home
- Cleanse things when you get home, even if you like the aura; just keep in mind you want to keep that part as you’re cleansing and your intentions should be set properly
#dailytarot 12/4 ✨ The Moon ✨ Today’s #message is to dig deep, to engage with the darkness that you typically avoid - your fears, your doubts, your secret beliefs. What can you learn by bringing these shadows into the light? How can you better understand yourself? We cannot be complete if we only take the brightest parts of who we are and try to leave the rest. Our shadow sides make up half of our being. The sooner you listen to what they’re trying to tell you, what they’re REALLY saying, not the surface level lies your brain feeds you, the sooner you’ll cut to the heart of the matter and be able to function as a full, complete person. ✨

#dailytarot 12/3 ✨ Two of Chalices ✨ Today’s #message is not to discount the stirrings of the heart. Our emotions drive us to plenty of heights that our rational minds can’t comprehend. With each situation and person you encounter, ask yourself how they can elevate you, bring out the best in you, and enhance the joy you get out of the world and how you can do the same for them in return. True partnership requires give and take. Invest in the people for whom what you receive is equal to what you give. ✨

#dailytarot 12/2 ✨ Two of Swords ✨ Today’s #message is that if there are any decisions weighing on you, any commitments to be made, now is the time to cut through any doubt and make your choice. There’s no real conflict here, not really; either you know something is right for you or you don’t. The doubts that cause you to hold back from committing to a decision aren’t your own, they’re the voices of everyone around and all the lessons you’ve internalized from our society telling you what you “should” do. But you know deep down what you need, what will make you happy. All you have to do is get in tune with your intuition, and it will point you in the right direction. Now the follow through? That’s up to you. Don’t let fear or convention hold you back from something you truly desire. ✨
