Good news: I found my runes while looking through my old herb collection! Bad news: All of my herbs are waaaayyy too old and stale to use for anything. They all smell like dust. Good news: I found a great supplier who sells the herbs I need cheap on Ebay! Bad news: I spent my…
Other animal omens
I’ve also had quite a few other critters show up in my life. First, the ant bite. (I’m thinking about tattooing a small, pink dot there on my finger to commemorate the event.)

It’s been a combination of missing Phantom, missing…
Writing totems, rituals, and spaces
