✍ Weekly Witchy CHALLENGE - The Wizardry of Words

I’ve tied a few of them out, and so far, “Seek” by iNaturalist is my favorite – in my opinion, it’s the best one I’ve tried so far :smiley:

Cool! I wouldn’t want you getting into poison ivy or something like that. That’s what would happen to me! LOL

I was in Girl Scouts for a hot minute and our group never even stayed together long enough to sell cookies. Didn’t learn much of anything there. :stuck_out_tongue:

I think I am going to try that app @Jewitch thank you! We have so many different wild flowers & things in the garden that I think are coming back from last year. Plus what we are planting in the greenhouse. I would love to know what else is just occurring in our yard though aside from what we have planted ourselves.

I made a separate post for my entry for this week. Wizardry of Words Weekly Challenge Entry

Dreams terrify me & I cannot write a dream journal,
but I did write this. It isn’t a spell as much as my
intent to let go. Forgive me my grief makes me foolish.

Light a small white candles, one for each loss.
Light a blue candle to help release anger.
Burn dragon’s blood incense for healing & protection.

To those who are gone, Bon Voyage

They won’t return. They are gone.
I know they are & I am so angry.
One cannot bargain with death.
The sorrow & depression is crippling.
I will work toward acceptance but
There is so much I have not addressed.
I could say:
“You can’t be dead…”
“How could you leave me?”
“Please, please don’t leave me!”
But my grief stays - complicated
And I wonder if the pain will ever end.
Beloved Goddess hold them,
Accept them, into your care.
But Grant me peace or make me stone.
They are all gone, I don’t want to be alone
I look for comfort, perhaps that’s why I’m here.
What if my longing won’t disappear?
Is my soul corrupt? Or is that survivors guilt.
I feel so empty, Like there’s a cloud in my brain.

Oh my Lady, Forgive my weakness
I am stronger than this,
I always survive. You know I do.
Bless my loved ones. I release them to you
With a kiss and a bow. And gratitude too.

As I have spoken. So let it be.

@Garnet that was beautiful and sad all at once. I wish I could take away your pain. Know that in time the pain will never go away but it will lessen and you’ll remember the good times again. I’ll be keeping you in my prayers. Blessed be.

Oh this is easy bc I found it challenging (for years!) to find my craft name. So I actually got some insight from meditation and came up with the name :sparkles::star:Zaina Star :star::sparkles:

It seems like I barely did anything but it took alot of effort!! What do you think?

I love your witchy name, do you think I should keep my Witch name? Jeannie but I only named it Jeannie cause my middle name is Jean so I thought how about Jeannie. I’m thinking to try to meditate on it again.
I am really excited to work on my book of Mirrors.
Blessed be!
