Pre-ordered! I think about these themes a lot and I look forward to reading your take on them.
I don't think the physical Universe is a "prison" for our Souls:
I think it's more like a Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory.
A screenshot of the page for buying The Balsam Lake Unmurders. It says: You heard about the necromancer in that Minnesota town? Well, you Agent, are the one we picked to go catch them. The Balsam Lake Unmurders. I've mailed Kickstarter backers their copies, so I can now sell to you and others. Please order using the button below. $22 plus shipping from the drop-down.
It seems I've mailed to all backers who did the survey, so I can now βΌοΈ sell The Balsam Lake Unmurders π± to you & others who missed the Kickstarter.
Check it out. It's the immersive journaling game of trying to catch a necromancer in a forested Minnesota town

I just heard this joke: A seeker scales a mountain to ask the wise man who sits at the top: βWhat is the key to happiness?β βI have good news and bad news,β says the wise man. βThe bad news is there is no key.β βAnd the good news?β asks the seeker. βThe good news is the door is wide open.β

"Neither the pure Atman (Self) alone, which is identical to Brahman, nor the little self (the ego) alone will do in the manifest world. At any level, a combination of the two in right relationship is needed.

A gathering basket full of wild flowers
A table laden with treats and a wildflower bouquet
People gathered around a fire pit
Beltane season blessings, all! I had a wonderful gathering with friends and fire. I hope you get a chance to mark the season in your own special way. #witchsky
Now I begin to feel that all that is important comes in quietness and waiting; and that activity should be only the working out, the digesting and putting forth of what one learned, so that one may become empty again to receive more.

Hello from NY
Magnolia blossoms

Bright pink magnolia syrup in a jar
I made this magnolia flower syrup for a Beltane party next week. It was a wonderful way to capture a fleeting moment of early spring.
Happy Easter to those who celebrate and blessed season of growth and rebirth to all! Pictured below is my seasonal altar, a leafing willow, and a fallen willow branch.
Tbf thereβs some scary stuff down there in the dark. Good thing thereβs also mama.
What my spiritual practice actually looks like
The Pine tree has been used medicinally for thousands of years. Its ability to aid respiratory function is long documented, itβs good for skin infections, and even reduces inflammation. A tea of Pine needles is a powerful cold treatment, you can add other beneficial herbs, too!
Snowdrop flowers growing in dried leaves and grass
Hudson Valley snowdrops! I didnβt see these anywhere my first year up here so it was a real treat to see them poking up on my walk yesterday. The community I am weaving here is made of both human and more-than-human beings. π€
Flowers are a gift of beauty from the Earth. Each one a tiny miracle.
I have 6 advance copies of The Balsam Lake Unmurders than I need for other reasons. So how about a fun giveaway:
πΈ Take and caption a photo of yourself like you're Dale Cooper driving into Balsam Lake
π Post it tagged #BalsamLake
I'll pick winners randomly. You'll have the game before anyone else!
