i am a practical witch.

i charge up my moon phase tattoo under the full moon of my sun sign, yes. i know how that sounds. but i just stand there briefly, grateful the moon is visible after the hours of snow. the clouds are moving quickly, so do i. i put a glass of water out in the path of the moon and tell it what is ready to go from my life. in the morning i will pour it away from me.

today was a hard day. it started off with the news that a wrongfully convicted comrade, a pregnant comrade, was taken into custody. she is being taken to prison to begin a mandatory two year sentence. it’s unimaginable, it’s devastating. i felt helpless. i made an altar, and i felt grounded and helpless.

my comrade needs a miracle. she is not alone. there’s so much too much right now. we have do what we can together.

today i spent a lot of time getting things together for the irs. humbled, dissociated, doing what needs to be done. i am having to ask for so much help these days.

it is a very difficult time to be humbled, to have to give any time, any resources to this government. to feel no trust in the systems of this place.

this moon is about getting things in order. it gives me some satisfaction to do mundane things that can be completed. today the big things were hard but the small things were easy. today that is enough.
