A collection of witchy resources & inspiration by yours truly, Mairwen. I’m a young Witch in the big city, and I love my Craft. Feel free to “Ask me anything” if you want to chat - I love connecting with other Pagans/Witches/Wiccans.

href="http://pathworking.deviantart.com/">pathworking</a></small></h1> <p>The Moon: This Tarot card portrays a Goddess of the Moon illumined by the pale light of the moon. She stands in the tidal waters of the ocean, and upon her shoulder is perched a night owl. Her talons draw blood and remind the world of the moons magnetic, tidal, and gravitational influence upon salt, water, and blood. Everything in this card hints at the pendulum like movement of our lunar sister. This work is still in progress, and behind the central figure will be two opposing silhouetted towers…two isolated prisons in the sea. One tower however will have the bars broken. This is a symbolic re-interpretation of the dog and wolf in the traditional card, and represents the conscious and unconscious parts of our being.</p> </blockquote>http://scrapsofshadows.tumblr.com/post/9557152893http://scrapsofshadows.tumblr.com/post/9557152893Mon, 29 Aug 2011 15:51:42 -0500tarotmoongoddess<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lqie1wBOom1qdgkk9o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://blog.hellboundwitch.com/post/9397349512">hellboundwitch</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://arizonamoon.tumblr.com/post/9397064104">arizonamoon</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Where can I get the goddess statue?!

Emotionally charged events from our past can still be haunting us because the unprocessed emotions get stored in our energy bodies causing pain, malfunction and eventually dis-ease. Trapped emotional energies will often gather around the heart creating a heart wall that may block you from giving and receiving love freely. We need to clear these energies so we can activate our high heart…the entryway to our soul. Thus Grow Again…A little stronger …A little Wiser…Peace & Blessings, Journey to Balance :)</span></p> </blockquote>http://scrapsofshadows.tumblr.com/post/9546771187http://scrapsofshadows.tumblr.com/post/9546771187Mon, 29 Aug 2011 10:16:00 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lqndhyq6OQ1qcrkcto1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://fuckyeahitchywitch.tumblr.com/post/9524034605">fuckyeahitchywitch</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Mabon Alter (by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/ibarsorgina/2936205821/">WicceMother</a>)</p> </blockquote>http://scrapsofshadows.tumblr.com/post/9546631665http://scrapsofshadows.tumblr.com/post/9546631665Mon, 29 Aug 2011 10:09:58 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lqd2774qSi1qewmydo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://scrapsofshadows.tumblr.com/post/9546026916http://scrapsofshadows.tumblr.com/post/9546026916Mon, 29 Aug 2011 09:42:25 -0500full moongoddessmoonpaganwiccawitchdrawing down the moon“‘Walk as if you are kissing the Earth with your feet.’”<br/><br/> - <em>Thich Nhat Hahn</em>http://scrapsofshadows.tumblr.com/post/9126962943http://scrapsofshadows.tumblr.com/post/9126962943Fri, 19 Aug 2011 11:59:37 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lq3eq68ELE1r09sneo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://scrapsofshadows.tumblr.com/post/9093139796http://scrapsofshadows.tumblr.com/post/9093139796Thu, 18 Aug 2011 16:12:58 -0500wiccapaganlady avalon<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lq3xe1VScG1r09sneo1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://scrapsofshadows.tumblr.com/post/9092319041http://scrapsofshadows.tumblr.com/post/9092319041Thu, 18 Aug 2011 15:51:48 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l8sv2kl8e31qa7bilo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://folkybones.tumblr.com/post/8860386165">folkybones</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://splitpeavintageblog.tumblr.com/post/1131893592">splitpeavintageblog</a>:<a href="http://www.tim-barber.com/">by Tim Barber</a></p> </blockquote>http://scrapsofshadows.tumblr.com/post/9045622899http://scrapsofshadows.tumblr.com/post/9045622899Wed, 17 Aug 2011 13:44:56 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lpj79wP7Vg1qkmfyeo3_250.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lpj79wP7Vg1qkmfyeo2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lpj79wP7Vg1qkmfyeo1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lpj79wP7Vg1qkmfyeo4_400.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lpj79wP7Vg1qkmfyeo5_400.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p><a href="http://eirecrescent.tumblr.com/post/8577202865">eirecrescent</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>If you guys have ever wondered what other Book of Shadows or Grimoires looked like on the inside…here are a few pictures of my (Altered Art version) Book of Shadows! </p> <p>What do you all think?</p> <p>If you want to see a bunch more click <a title="here" href="http://naturalwitchlife.blogspot.com/p/daily-grimoirebos-pictures.html">here</a>: or this: http://naturalwitchlife.blogspot.com/p/daily-grimoirebos-pictures.html</p> </blockquote>http://scrapsofshadows.tumblr.com/post/9009644425http://scrapsofshadows.tumblr.com/post/9009644425Tue, 16 Aug 2011 16:04:44 -0500
