Purple Coneflower, Echinacea purpurea. A widely grown native wildflower of North America. #bloomscrolling #flowers #gardening #NorthAmericanPlants #PlantFriend
I was playing this #flute earlier. Sadly, recordings didn't come out that great though; it's pretty tricky.
This is a reconstruction #palaeolithic flute based on the find at Grubgraben, Austria, 1994. It's attributed to the Epigravettian culture and dated 23,000-20,000 BP (according to updated research). Made from a reindeer tibia, it's the earliest-known #instrument with holes made by a flint drill; older ones had scraped holes instead. #Histodons #History #Prehistory #Paleolithic

One of my signature crafted items are my wood-burned fairy door lightswitch plates. This particular one represents Freya, but I have many more designs in my shop.

He was golden, like Phoebus himself, but with shadows at his heels... #Art #illustration #mythology
Friendly reminder that enjoying the bits of your life that bring you joy, comfort and peace while you can is one of the biggest acts of rebellion you can do every day. They have and continue to strive to take so much from us, don't give these things to them too. Find your community and dream about the future while also making your plans for today because THAT is how we build it. We will tear this shit down and we need the dreamers to sculpt the future we're working towards, we need YOU. 💜
Blessed goddess
Wise and beautiful
Shining with the light of reason
Rejoicing in knowledge
Delighting in tactics

We seek you
Those of us who know you
That you may stand with us
As times grow dark

Blessed goddess
Warrior and general
Teacher and student
Weaver and cutter
Delighting in the works of the hands

We seek you
We who would know what to do
And seek justice for those who cannot
In these times of corruption

Blessed goddess
Sound of judgement
Sound of strength
Sound of intellect
Daughter of heaven

We seek you
Athena of the aegis
Lady of the sword and shield
Goddess of wisdom and war

There’s a lesson here for the social justice hexing crowd, which is one of the cool things about folklore. Magical wisdom and practical know-how, hidden in plain sight. #witch #witchcraft #hex #banefulmagic #magic
