Making Sacra
The agenda for today gosslin’s, is to make a special piece of sacra.
I’m going to take the geese flying over my house as I typed that a good omen lol.
Sacra crafting always takes a lot of work. And this time I have to get it right. Photos and blog posts to come, but in the meantime I’m eating up a little internet with my oatmeal and then getting to work.

The more you learn about the weird mortuary practices of the world… the more you want to be buried in space.

I remember reading about most of these discoveries. And loving the weirdness of them all. Sigh, I love archaeology. It shows that humans were fucked up even in the far past.

Health
Has been on my mind a lot lately. I’ve recently found myself faces with health issues that I thought I had under-control. I’ve been gaining weight and getting sick, and I just do not like it. Added to this is the fact that a lot of family members are having health issues, and I’m not getting any younger, makes one think.
My mom and dad are both having to deal with...

An elegant solution for keeping track of reality:... →
patheticfangirl:
This is my letter to angry fanboys.
First, let it be known that I love most fanboys. When I go to a con, most of the guys there are respectful. They share a passion with me, and that’s awesome. We’re all on a rock floating through space with little connection to most of…
I had no idea the fanboys were pissy about this. Not surprised, highly amused. Everything the OP said is...

To Never Leave the Wilds
She: No matter how sliced our feet, or bloodied our hands, or tangled our hair. Better to cut it off and tear it out than to leave the wilds
I: Better to smear it across our skin with canine grins than leave the wilds
She: Better to slice their ribs and swallow them whole then to leave the wilds
I: Better to sharpen our nails to rip flesh from bones and eat hearts whole than leave the wilds
She: Better to fuck them all on beds of thorns than leave the wilds
She: Better to slice them thin, lace our boots with their skins then to leave the wilds
I: Better to make our pearls from bones than leave the wilds
I: Better to rouge our cheeks with dirt and blood than leave the wilds
She: Better to bathe in blood and the salt of fears than to leave the wilds
I: Better to burn their flesh under our hungry gaze than leave the wilds
She: Better to scream and hiss and ride nightmares then to leave the wilds
I: Better to bind our souls with shadows, to press our breast against beasts from the depths than leave the wilds
She: Better to suck flesh from bones and tame darkest beasts to bed than to leave the wilds
I: Better to clean our wounds with blackened pitch and rule as Bitch than leave the wilds
She: Better to rip faces from skulls with their teeth and pluck their eyes for our games then to leave the wilds
I: better to rule in the dark and rage thru life than leave the wilds
She: better to scrape out their souls and run through the cold than to leave the wilds
I: better to be beaten and bruised, to spit in the eye of Death and be kissed than to leave the wilds
She: better to be cherished by monsters and feared and hunted by men than to leave the wilds
I: better to pluck from our teeth the skin of the weak than to leave the wilds
She: better to sip fruit long dropped from the gallows trench than to leave the wilds
I: better to pull from our chests the beating hearts than leave the wilds
She: better to dance our death over bones of the unworthy than to leave than wilds
I: better the winds howl our names, that blasphemy tangle in our tresses than leave the wilds
She: better to line our beds with the furs of darkling things than ever to leave the wilds
Because really I'm too proud of this conversation to have it just languish in my chat history lol And if the mysterious She would like her name attached to this, I will gladly oblige ;)

To Rosmerta
fieldsofstone:
Beloved Rosmerta, blessed one, bringer of prosperity, provider of plenty, giver of gold and guardian of grain, goddess beneficent, goddess benevolent, friend of the deep earth, friend of wayward fortune, I honor you, I honor your might. Rosmerta, long ago your temples stood across the land, your image carved with care in stone or cast in bronze, holder of the harvest horn, bearer...
lindentea asked: Oh man! I was just talking to my parents the other day (the topic was 70's veg*n cookbooks, one of which they sent me for my birthday) and I mentioned the Foxfire books and they were like "oh yeah we totally used to have a few of those back in the day..." and I'm SO SAD they didn't keep them! I'm only just realizing that my parents were totally into all that kind of...

Twice in the last 24 hours I’ve been harassed on the street by men who felt that it was fine to catcall me, ask for my name, comment on my appearance and even try to grab at my tattoos without my permission. It makes my blood boil; I tell people about it and half the time I get told that I’m overreacting or being sensitive. I’ve had people tell me I’m cold, that claiming to be a...

Handmaiden's Kitchen →
I know that I for one am always interested in new blogs with information on wildharvesting, and home remedies. So I thought maybe ya’ll would be too. The blog is chock full of good information. A lot of American Folk remedies, great recipes. It has it’s biases, and it not “pagan” or “witchcraft” but really anyone should be able to see the possibilities here ;)

I wish I didn’t need to reblog stuff like this. I wish people *got it*. But judging from the ridiculous response to these posts, stuff like this clearly still needs to be repeated.

dewognatos:
I really love fuckyeahvikingsandcelts, but the arguments on it lately are infuriating me. So much stupid anons, so many good answers anons don’t read, and way too much to even comment on without the risk of sounding like an idiot.
Just going to scroll past it and try to roll my eyes instead of…
This. Lots of this.

Unexpected wipe out yesterday.
Everything was groovy. Going fine. Had big plans for the evening, working in the daytime. Everything under-control.
Then at about 5-ish slight headache comes on. Think nothing of it, continue drinking my gatorade, pop some Advil, continue working, no big deal. But as time is going by it’s getting worse and worse. Everyone is buzzing about the Eclipse that’s going to happen soon and I...
