  • Full Moon in Pisces: The Soul in Water, by @eighthhouseastro out today on #THoT #thehouseoftwigs ~ “"It is Virgo season. Virgo is the second earth sign of the zodiac, symbolized by a virgin holding a shaft of wheat. It is a mutable sign, which means it is flexible in its expression, always searching for the right tool, the right word, the right remedy. Virgo is, like Pisces, a humanitarian sign, it is the sign of the nun, the social worker, the healer, the translator. It is a sign that works in earthy symbology, and is rooted to the here and now. Many Virgos find themselves in helping professions, and this is no coincidence. This sign is a devoted helper, and feels best about themselves when they are useful to others, as an instrument of good. >One of Greco-Roman mythology’s most famous myths is about Pluto and Proserpina, and the story goes that one day, Proserpina, virginal daughter of Demeter, goddess of the harvest, was out picking flowers (as virgins are always apt to be in these old stories), when suddenly, she was kidnapped by Pluto, lord of the underworld, and taken to his subterranean kingdom to be his queen. Devastated, Demeter searched high and low for her daughter, and in the six months that she was unable to locate her, the world plunged into its first winter. Trees and fields barren, the ground cold and hard, the earth was suddenly inaccessible to man, due to Demeter’s grief." ~ #witch #astrology #fullmoon #pisces #astrologyreport #witchesofinstagram #witchschool
  • As we enter into the full #Piscesmoon I rember this Moon of transformation by @eighthhouseastro . Pisces is an interesting sign because it is at the end of the astrology wheel and has been through many of transformations and is a softer side of the water elements. #thehouseoftwigs #astrology #moon #fullmoon #THoT ~ “Scorpio as scorpion bathes her claws in the river Styx. She exists in the realm of intuitive dream. The underworld is a vast forest, and Scorpio patrols the roots and decaying earth matter. She can paralyze all with her light sting. Scorpio as eagle rules the sky, and from her vantage point she sees all that grows beneath her. Scorpio as eagle shows the sign’s honor and integrity. Scorpio as phoenix embodies regeneration. By self-immolating, the phoenix invites her own death, and crumbles to gritty ash. Magically, alchemically, she reassembles herself in a new, exalted form—the bird of fire, the red feathered phoenix. The phoenix speaks to the imaginative power of Scorpio, and is an expression of the power of death’s sister, rebirth. By working with the archetypes of this powerful sign, we can invite transformation into our own lives this particular Full Moon cycle. Scorpio is possessed of an inner sureness, a clarity, a vision. This is a moment to redirect yourself to your own inner voice. Move by your own sense of integrity. Meditate on what your vision for your life looks like in its most exalted form, regardless of the opinions of others. Scorpio says, “my enemies be damned,” and you can, too. “
  • The Magic Where You Live by #obeahwomanwhispers on #thehouseoftwigs #THoT @emmakathrynwildwitch ~ “Find the secret places where you live, those liminal spaces, and it doesn’t matter where that is, for the city holds secrets, just like the country, and nature is everywhere, is everything, and she will find those secret, forgotten and abandoned places, you can count on that! She will find them and reclaim them; the spirits will return, if they ever left at all. Find them and make them your own. Learn of the spirits that reside there, build a relationship with them. Become a guardian, a steward, if you will, of those places and care for them, in return they will care for you and give you so much more besides. But mostly make the effort. It’s hard at first, I know, for we have been suckled at the teat of technology, pampered in our climate controlled homes. We toil in our jobs, in shops and services, in light tight factories, and we are tired when we come home. There’s family time, and partner time and time for this and that, our lives a schedule, but there’s never any time left to just be. We’ve become separated from the deepest and most real part of ourselves.” #witchesofinstagram #magick #pagansofinstagram #witchschool #schoolofritual #witchy
  • Stepping Into Magick: Power, Purpose, and Passion by @_erickdupree_ #underpinningsofwitchcraft #THoT #thehouseoftwigs #pagan #witchcraft #witchesofinstagram #witch ~ “Magick is real. Discovering that the universe is full of magick and living in that magical universe is what makes witches unique from others. Wisdom teacher Phyllis Curott, the author of WitchCrafting, reminds us, Most people know intuitively that when you fall in love, the world is full of magic. What they don’t know is that when you discover the universe is full of magick, you fall in love with the world.”
  • Exploring the Paths of Classical Witchcraft in Modern Practice by @poisonersapothecary on #THoT #thehouseoftwigs #pagansofinstagram #poisonpath #witchesofinstagram #witchcraft ~ “These are the rustic practices of the hedge rider and cunning man that characterize the traditional witch’s practice. Our altars are outdoors, erected as needed in the sacred groves that nature provides and the land is given back when our rites are complete. The tools that we use are often forged by nature, hewn by the elements; rough looking compared to the pristine tools of the ritual magician. We work with roots and herbs creating potions and formulas for journeying and leaving our physical bodies behind.”
  • Creating Sacred Space: Boundaries with Loving Intention. Words by @sourceandstone on #THoT #thehouseoftwigs #protection #witch #boundary #sacredspace #witchesofinstagram ~ “Why create boundaries? When we create sacred space, it’s essentially creating a wall of energy around us that filters the energy we come into contact with. This is where the boundary comes in; by adjusting your filter, you can set the intention for your sacred space – what you will (or won’t) allow in! You’ll notice a distinct difference before and after you set up your sacred space; if you’re empathic or sensitive to other people’s feelings, it will be easier for you to distinguish what is “yours” versus outside sensations coming in.”
