Last week<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

So many things! I took Friday (and this Monday) off from work, due to close timing of summer solstice, the new moon, and an eclipse. (This was a good call, self!) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Friday:<\/strong> (And the days previous). All the cleaning. I also baked this honey cake<\/a> on Friday evening with the addition of a tablespoon of orange extract, a splash of rose water, and a good sprinkle of cardamom. Cardamom makes everything better. Here’s a photo of the result.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saturday: <\/strong>Coven solstice ritual, which for our tradition is often a look at what the group vision looks like for the coming year (as opposed to our own personal goals). We drew Tarot cards, talked about them, and had a great conversation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sunday: <\/strong>Bottling some infused oils, and my new moon Tarot reading and other work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also a lot of book editing, in my ongoing fiction writing. (I’m getting better at the process, but having four days to focus on editing without the day job was fantastic.) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This week <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I just posted two more parts of my Coven in the time of Coronavirus series, one on risks and considerations<\/a>, and one on activities and alternatives<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saturday: <\/strong>Dedicant class on Pagan arts (including music) – always fun! And then the first Seeker class. (Note to self: have plenty handy to drink, that’s a lot of talking.) <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
