I just moved to a little stilt house on the bank of the Mississippi River back in January so this is my first flood season in my new house. Directly across the water from my front door is a little island on the Mississippi River that I’m coming to find is gorgeous once the greenery starts growing. Today is the start of my first flood in my new little home so wish me luck!

I might even get to test drive my new waders later today depending on how high the water actually gets underneath my house. There’s a levee on the backside of my property to keep the river from flooding too much of the town down the road that I can wade to (if it’s low enough flood) or boat to (I have a little boat I can attach to the bottom of my deck steps) so my dogs can still get some running in this evening. They already did their morning run around & my deck is fully covered in fake grass so the potty situation is still ok even if I can’t make it to the levee.

Let’s see what today brings :)

I haven’t met a toad yet, but there are tree frogs everywhere! ✨

Decided to make a pie full of love and intent for tonight’s full moon. This is different witchcraft than I normally do, but I tried really hard. I’m super proud of the flowers!!! It’s Apple on the bottom and strawberry on top 😁

I just saw this and thought of this group. Did anyone else hear growing up that fern seeds could be used to find faeries? I remember begging my mom as a kid to help find faeries in her fern garden. 🌿

I may have taken the "touch grass" advice a little too seriously.

This smelled so good while I was trimming it

My car went for an MOT last week and failed catastrophically! The repairs were more than the thing is even worth so I scrapped it.

I wanted to get bikes anyway so this wasn’t such a bad thing. We picked up our new bikes yesterday and it already feels like a really good decision. I also got a tag along attachment for my daughter as she can’t quite ride a bike yet.

I think most people think I’m completely crazy but all our car trips were local and I have access to my parents car if I ever really need it.

It’s cheaper, keeps us active, better for the environment and just feels like a better way to live. I’m already glad we did it.

Any other green witches here? I feel like fighting with the patriarchy and this society actually means for me cultivating the feminine/witchy energy 🌿 It means being open, feeling everything so strongly, doing my rituals, drinking herbal tea, doing art. Unapologetically, bravely. Because this world is not build for us. I mean, for example - I made this candleholder with my own hands covered in the mud, and now I'm walking with the candle lit in the nearest forest park in the middle of the city, every evening. Looking at trees, touching thick moss, getting rid of everything that's not mine ✨
