Thuringian forest near Saalfeld from Wikimedia In the year 1635, a farmer from Saalfeld named Hans Krepel went to cut trees in the moorland. Around the afternoon, a little lady from the moorland came there and told him, “Father, if you stop now and pack up, and draw three crosses when chopping this last tree of the day, something good with happen to you. Telling this she went away. The farmer, a rough and tough guy, thought - “for what sake the blabbering girl is helping me and why shall I abide by such a ghost?” So he refrained from scratching the three crosses and went home in the evening. The following day he returned to chop the trees at the same time. The lady from the bog land approached him again and said, “Oh, man, why didn’t you scratch the three crosses yesterday? It could have helped both of us. The wild hunter chases us in the afternoons and nights without a break and kills us miserably. We cannot keep ourselves safe from him if we cannot lock ourselves in such well-kept tree trunks. He cannot catch us from the trunks where crosses are inscribed thrice - hence we stay untouched.” The farmer said, “Ho ho, how should these crosses help? I won’t do thing here to please you.” But after this, the little woman assaulted the farmer to the extent, that he, though strong by nature, fell ill and miserable. Since then he had followed the given doctrine without fail; never ignored to draw the crosses. He did not face the same trouble again. * In reality, #German tribes were unconquerable in their marshland and forests. Even in CE 9, Germanic tribes defeated the Roman army in the Battle of the #Teutoberg Forest. In stories, #ghosts and #witches and #demons rule over the forests in #Germany. Notable here is that the #forest dweller (dwarf or demon) is asking the adamant #woodcutter to draw crosses on the trees to save them, which gives an impression of the story’s evolving in post Christ time. #folktale #saalfeld #environment #christianity in #Europe #forest #forestdwellers #sagen #grimms https://www.instagram.com/p/Cd4zOp3rn6A/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I was at my mom’s house the other day and found raven or crow feathers and thought it would be nice to add them to my altar especially considering the significance of these birds in my heritage and paganism in the country my mom and my ancestors came from. Is there a specific way I should clean feathers to prevent spread of germs and other nasty things?
Okay Cor’s phone died (we’re camping at the moment) so we’ll probably continue the bit tomorrow lmao
“There’s something off about those siblings, just cant quite place my finger on what.”
Decided to gather up Ranni icons first since I knew that Ranni would have very little icons, in total I’ve managed to scrounge up 24 tho. And it’s almost a little disappointing that she doesn’t ahve a very wide range of emotions I can icon, but at the same time it fits her I feel like.
After all, she’s a rather stoic individual whose not prone to outbursts, perhaps many years ago when she was younger she was a bit more emotional but nowadays she’s rather calm most times. Even her anger is not that expressive- although you can still see she’s angry, and oh is it surely terrifying. That stoic face staring into your eyes with the anger visible in her eyes as she just glares at you so subtly and yet clearly- let alone knowing who Ranni is, that she could easily smite you right where you stood if she wished-
Yeah uh, don’t mess with Ranni. Just don’t.
Now as for her when she’s sad; I think she’s even less prone to being expressively sad than she is angry. Let alone here CRYING? That’s nigh impossible, good luck getting her to cry. Or at least, her crying for herself is rare; her crying for her mother Renala though is a lot more plausible given how much Renala means to her and Renala’s entire situation. Abandonment goes brrrrr ahahahahahaha
Oh did I mention my Ranni will indeed have abandonment (well more like betrayal/trust kind of) issues? Cause she absolutely does in my portrayal given her father fucking abandoned her and her mother. She doesn’t take betrayal very well, in fact it’s one of the few times you’ll get genuine rage from her because her trust is a valuable thing. And if you break it, your about to get a VERY angry and hurt doll witch.
Everyone within her group are people who she has given her utmost trust so betrayal from them is the greatest betrayal she could suffer and it prompts the most reaction out of her- with the exception of Seluvis betraying her, because she doesn’t trust him to begin with and already plans to dispose of him whenever he proves he’s no longer useful. Trust me, she does NOT like nor trust that fucker in the slightest. Fuck Seluvis.
Oh to be a cryptid living in the woods and randomly showing up in random places throughout the night and the locals tell storys about a witch that lives in the woods that will curse anyone who tresspass

Hey all! I’ve decided to start taking tarot commissions to help me out financially. If you can’t book a reading that’s fine, following, reblogging and likes help a ton !
BACKGROUND:
A bit of background, I’m a 22 year old, black and indian tarot practitioner, I've been studying tarot for around 4 years and actively practicing for around 2 years. I did some free readings on tumblr before and the responses were overwhelmingly positive. I love doing readings for other people to help provide the guidance or messages that they may need. I’m also doing this as affordable as I possibly can since I want to make sure that anyone can get a reading. It will be set up in a queue order (who comes first will get served first).
just to preface, anyone requesting a reading can provide only one (1) question for the kind of reading they want or just ask for a general reading.
❀ READING OFFERS:
(all readings come with a written description)
1 card pull: $1.11
3 card spread: $3.33
5 card spread: $5.55
7 card spread: $7.77
in-depth love readings: $8.88
(will consist of the person's traits, your dynamic, advice for the both of you moving forward)
higher self messages: $15.15
intuitive readings: $22.22
(for this reading i won’t place a number limit on the cards (still one question based per reading ), i can use multiple decks (as well as my pendulum for yes, no and maybe questions) and i’ll just allow the deck to provide the cards necessary for the reading)
build your own reading: $33.33
unlike my other offers, you can request multiple questions (3 max) and also request any additional things you see fit for the reading.
❀ ADDITIONALS:
These are add ons to card readings that you can choose
$2.22 (each)

~ health
~ legal issues
~ pregnancy
~ family related issues (divorce etc)
~ third party people (i don't do spying)
~ past life

❀ P*YMENT METHOD:
for now i only offer payment through p*yp*l. P*yment must be completed before receiving a reading. As always tips are appreciated but not necessary.
❀ TURNOVER TIME:
i reply to dms as soon as i can and typically the full reading can be provided within 24 to 72 hours of the request. unfortunately i work freelance so the turnover time may vary, but i would share this via dms if there will be a delay. My biggest goal is to get it to you as soon as possible.
