members of the coven share fairy tales on Friday?
) Thankful 
for Brianna reminding us about them. I really encourage everyone to check them out from time to time, even if they donāt have something for themselves.
Maybe Iāll just share some mythology and stories instead, because Iām finding some fascinating info about Brighid that isnāt commonly known!
And ohhh such a fun idea, I would also love to see any fairy tales anyone has to share! Always love a good story
