sainthood + baby pagan prayers

Did you know I’m eligible for sainthood? Yes. I am. I’m pretty sure that mothering a child for 23 months, 6 days, 4 hours, and eleven minutes without doing any of the following qualifies one for sainthood:

Losing my goddamned mind
Slapping, spanking, biting, or otherwise hurting the child
Killing, castrating, or divorcing her father
Selling her on eBay

She [...]

divine, the

I am reading Eat Pray Love. Only I am not. I am devouring, relishing, tasting, experiencing it.
I am Eating it, Praying it, Loving it.
I’ll write a response to it when I finish, I just have to! But not a review. Would you review the Bible? Well, I would… yes, I would, so it’s a poor [...]

yoni!

One more burst of sexual energy for the Sexography GBBMCMMCGVBVC… whatever campaign :p I spent some of my birthday money on a frame for the new piece, and after the printing costs I’m going to donate what’s left to RAINN. It’s not a lot but it adds up. Throw in a few bucks with me? [...]

i’m possessed with a strange and sudden need to know where Saturn is in my natal chart

I’m thinking if I fully explain this I’ll get a severe spasm of one-handed-typer’s-carpal-tunnel. So, I’ll just throw out a chain of thought and you can feel free to follow it or me utterly lost.
I’m reading Eat. Pray. Love. It’s stirring my mind wildly + beautifully.
She studies at an ashram where they “allow” you- this [...]

tiny temple

Here is a tiny mouse art doodle for Temple, the new daughterblessing for darling Urban Earth Mama Brooke. I’m doodling this everywhere and it finally struck me today that it’s a uterus with tubes and a little embryo. (Simultaneously, it’s Erzulie.)
Temple is such a pretty name I swooned when I read her introduction at her [...]

time and blood

(mom)
I’m feeling you so vividly right now. The spring is our time, the two of us wild and stoned in the forest clearing. Aries and laughing and twin skirts blowing in the breeze, twin souls like Demeter and Persephone- firmly, solidly mother/daughter too. The sisterhood never took precedence over your wings holding me and your [...]

by popular- OK, by one solitary demand: my tattoos

As requested, the Wicca Hindu (Hinca? WiccaDu?) tattoo as well as my two others. (Notice also the skeaky peaky of the fab new undies.) I remembered I was going to have Bu shoot them while I was snapping my model shots with my friend, so I had her take these. It also partially evened things [...]

mindfulness and stillness: it turns out i don’t really like

The meditation workshop was, shockingly, torturous. I thought a day of Buddhist mindfulness meditation would be like a tall, clear glass of water where my soul is a thirsty throat. Instead, I found it perfectly excruciating. My internal dialog was a constant barrage of “I suck at this,” and when I finally found some peace [...]

spell for heidi & family

This spelldoodle ™ calls on Hestia, the hearth goddess of home, and Mercury the patron of travel to help Heidi with a trans-Atlantic move. Peace and blessings, sweatpea! When is the move?
Hestia is mah girl. She is the only Olympian who was never anthropomorphized. She’s always depicted as a flame. She lives in my Buck [...]

Under a hazy quiet-on-the surface moon last night, I worked and worked, filling the house with magic and colors and smells. I baked the delicious muffins- I’m calling them sunshine muffins. The orange is the first taste but is subtle, and the honey gives an earthy, substantial sweetness that is very homey and wholesome tasting. [...]
