Y'all have today and tomorrow to take advantage of the 50% off code for Grimdark & Dangerous (the link used here is that discount link). After October 31 the code will become inactive.

And as a reminder, when you buy Grimdark & Dangerous, not only are getting a 160 page full art d&d compendium of player and GM content, you are also getting a secondary expansion (The Living Grimoire Expansion) of that compendium that was unlocked by reaching a stretch goal. With the 50% off code, Grimdark & Dangerous is $9.99. I am not tooting my own horn when i say that this book is comparable in content and quality to Tasha's Cauldron of Everything (though this is my opinion and not a proven fact). It is (imo). I'd be full of myself if I said it was better. But it's about the same. And I highly doubt you will ever find a digital copy of Tasha's and then some for as cheap as you can buy G&D now.

Sale warning and promotional over. Have a lovely day and a happy Halloween, darklings.

The Magic of Everyday: How I Find Witchcraft in the Ordinary.

🌿🌕✨

Do you ever stop to marvel at the enchantment that surrounds us, hidden in plain sight? As I delve deeper into my journey of practicing witchcraft, I've come to realize that magic isn't just about casting grand spells or performing elaborate rituals—it's woven into the very fabric of our everyday lives.

🌟✨

Join me as I embark on this enchanting exploration of "The Magic of Everyday," where I'll reveal how I find witchcraft in the ordinary and embrace the extraordinary in the mundane.

🌟✨

Morning Brew, Morning Spells ☕🔮 Every morning, as the sun rises and the world awakens, I stand by the window, cradling my warm mug of tea or coffee, or in the summer months with iced drinks (I love an iced coffee!). With every sip, I imbue my drink with intentions of clarity and peace.

The Language of Plants and Crystals 🌿💎 During my daily walks, I've discovered a secret language spoken by the plants and crystals. The rustling leaves whisper ancient wisdom, while the sparkling crystals hum with energy. Nature, the most potent spell caster, teaches me to be still, listen, and learn.

Embracing the Elements 🌊🔥💨🌍 The elements surround us at all times, and recognising their presence is a powerful key to unlock everyday magic. I breathe in the fresh air, feel the earth beneath my feet, and let the rain cleanse my spirit. When I light a candle, I invoke the transformative power of fire. By connecting with the elements, I connect with the core of existence.

Enchanted Home Space 🏠✨ My home is my sacred space, a sanctuary for my craft. I've adorned it with little altars and candles, which I light to honour the spirits that reside within these walls. Cleansing my space with smoke incense purifies and refreshes the energy, filling the air with positive vibrations.

Moonlit Dream weaving 🌙🌌 Under the moon's tender gaze, I venture into the realm of dreams. I keep a dream journal by my bedside, capturing the mysteries that unfold during the night. In the gentle light of the moon, I feel closer to the universal energy that weaves us all together.

🌟✨

In the grand tapestry of life, there's magic in the ordinary—waiting for us to embrace it with wonder and gratitude. By cherishing these moments, we tap into the essence of witchcraft, where intention and reverence converge.

So, as you go about your day, remember to pause, breathe, and observe the magic that surrounds you. Whether it's in the flight of a butterfly, the sparkle of dew on a leaf, or the warmth of a friend's smile, the enchantment of everyday life awaits your discovery.

🌟✨

Litha Season: Astrology, Correspondences and Activity Ideas

Helga Haze on Pinterest

Litha season covers the entire zodiac sign of Cancer and half of Leo. Their ruler planets are the Moon and the Sun. On the longest day of the year — the summer solstice — intertwine obvious and hidden, irrational and rational, internal and external, masculine and feminine, ego and id.

Litha is the Sun at the peak of its power. The Earth is in bloom and abundance. It's triumph of joy, warmth, pleasure, and light. The brightest, most memorable moment before the wheel of the year changes its direction again and starts moving towards increasing darkness. After the summer solstice, the daylight hours will begin to get shorter and shorter.

Litha season is a time to:

🟆 Go public, bring your projects out of the drawer, come out of the broom closet. 🟆 Create a website, portfolio, blog, social media account to promote and showcase your project or business. 🟆 Work on your marketing positioning, personal branding, be clear about «who I am, what I am about, and for whom I do what I do.» 🟆 Try or improve yourself in acting, public speaking. 🟆 Release body tension through relaxation exercises and breathing techniques. 🟆 Learn to relax and rest (truly, not just switch from one activity to another). 🟆 Add creativity to your life, dedicate time to the things you love most. 🟆 Try freewriting, doodling, play, experiment, do spontaneous «silly things» that bring you joy. 🟆 Donate food and clothes to charity, adopt new eco-friendly habits. 🟆 Gather around a campfire, go camping, trekking, have picnics. 🟆 Drink tea on the porch or balcony. 🟆 Watch sunrises and sunsets. 🟆 Dance — in a rooftop café, alone at home, in a garden. 🟆 Swim (especially at night, if it’s warm and safe). 🟆 Go out into nature, take a vacation, travel for a couple of days to a new place. 🟆 Collect and dry St. John’s wort and other seasonal herbs. 🟆 Enjoy food, seasonal fruits, visit a restaurant of your favourite cuisine.

Litha Season is not a time to:

🟆 Try to mend relationships with those who are not interested in it. 🟆 Dwell in the past, escape from the moment «here and now». 🟆 Hold onto «expired» things that cause you pain. 🟆 Deny yourself joy and pleasure. 🟆 Get stuck in the city among concrete and asphalt.

All this is relevant until Lughnasadh (August 1), the point between the summer solstice and the autumn equinox.

Спокойный Ламмас 🌾🌙

"В августе месяце всегда держите на подоконнике мяту, чтобы назойливые мухи оставались на улице, где им и положено быть. Не думайте, что лето кончилось, даже когда поникают и блекнут розы и звезды располагаются на небосклоне в ином порядке. Никогда не полагайтесь на то, что август – безопасный месяц года. Это поворотное время, когда не поют больше птицы по утрам, а вечера сотканы в равных долях из золотистого света и черных туч. Основательное и зыбкое с такой легкостью меняются местами, что начинаешь оспаривать и подвергать сомнению даже то, что, казалось бы, твердо знаешь."

the spell diagrams in the envoy's grimoire are so neat. like they could be taken straight from the key of solomon or some hermetic text.

[dni-iftherearedogsonyourblog]

why do I see posts like "why didn't schools teach us about the Blair mountain coal miner riots!" because you live in fucking Dover, Utah and in the only high school for miles the US history teacher was also the global history teacher.

Hold everything! Everyone stop what you're doing, this is huge!

Grimdark & Dangerous is on sale for GM's Day! For a limited time only, until March 14th, you can snag this book-- normally priced at $19.99--for $16.99! That's 15% off folks!

Not only is that a spectacular deal, but it also gets you the rest of the future expansions for the content library for free!

That's 3 extra books (bonus class and ephemera, cutting room floor revised, and a full bestiary) at full stretch goals. Free.

I didn't have a choice in the matter of the deal, because DMsGuild can discount any published books on their platform whenever they want (they can only discount books so much, but still). But this is totally fine by me so long as you guys realize what this deal means. If you buy this book, you get The Living Grimoire Expansion and Grimdark & Darker for free when their stretch goals are met; and the Grimdark Bestiary as well when that final stretch goal is met. Because this content is getting added on to the download packet when you buy the main book, they are not separate purchases or even downloads.

This is also where I'm announcing Grimdark & Darker. Not all of my cutting room floor content will go into The Living Grimoire Expansion (though, thanks to polling here, a good chunk of it will), and there's a reason for that. There's a lot. So, when the book hits 150 copies sold, this new mini-manual will be added on to all previous and future sales of Grimdark & Dangerous. This mini-manual will include tons of new subclasses, items, a few spells, a few backgrounds, and a handful of other extra odds and ends.

If you aren't picking up how massive this is. Grimdark & Dangerous is approaching the same mass as a humble bundle. And it's on sale now! Grab a copy while it's the cheapest it will be for a while.

I only wish I could have given you guys a bigger heads up but I've been on the bench with sickness and dental work. Reblog this so that everyone that you know that might want to snag this library of content can get it at a discount!

"Как ясен август, нежный и спокойный,

Сознавший мимолетность красоты.

Позолотив древесные листы,

Он чувства заключил в порядок стройный "

Счастливого августа 🌼🌾
