Yearning is a curse, bound to desire and dreams with the weight of a thousand moons pressed against my heart. Trapped in a fog of longing. Earlier this spring for the longing portal with @erevs

How dare we see the light in dark times. How dare we refuse to be silent. Self portraits as Saint Lucy. The stories surrounding Lucy’s eyes vary. One account says the governor ordered her eyes removed because her visions and prophecies infuriated him. Miraculously, her sight was restored, proving that divine vision cannot be destroyed. Another says Lucy removed her own eyes to discourage a persistent suitor who admired her beauty. In giving them up, she affirmed her devotion, her vow, and her independence. Whether taken from her or surrendered willingly, her eyes symbolize a deeper truth: sight is more than physical. Lucy represents spiritual perception, discernment, and divine clarity. When soldiers came to arrest her, Lucy became impossible to lift; no force of men or animals could move her. She survived an attempt to burn her alive when the flames refused to ignite. Finally, she was killed by the sword, still speaking prophecies with serenity. Her death reflects a soul untouched by fear. Her steadfastness in the face of violence sealed her legacy as a protector of those navigating darkness. Slide 6: A Catalonian panel painting, originally from the parish church of Santa Llúcia de Mur (Guàrdia de Noguera, Pallars Jussà) and dated ca. 1300, graphically depicts four of the tortures suffered by the virgin martyr Saint Lucy Slide 7: Blanche of Burgundy, Countess of Savoy, kneeling before Saint Lucy. Savoy Hours. ca. 1334-40. Paris.

Perhaps all we ever wanted was to turn our face to the sun and feel the gentle kiss of her warmth on a spring day. In other news I definitely started a new account here to have a dedicated space to place all my fun outfits, good about vintage and fashion. Playing dress up never gets old for me, and I've been doing it all my life and plan to do it as long as my body lets me. If that also tickles your fancy, when I'm not helping others step into their photo fantasy you will find me and my silly little get ups @wardrobe_and_whimsy Some fun selfies while wearing my new fit from @french.meadows

In a time of ancient gods, warlords and kings... A land in turmoil cried out for a hero. They had been forged in the heat of battle. The power... the passion... the danger... their courage will change the world. The power of friendship @unhingedguillotine and @rose_be4_hoes earlier this year. Wearing armor for @filthchains @sorceressandthestone and @chainsofmetal

This June, @shiva_honey @thetravelwitchofficial is hosting a four-day summer solstice retreat in Salem and I've been invited to close it with a portrait session. The retreat: Six witches. Beautiful historic accommodations. Ritual and ceremony that will strengthen your practice and connects you more deeply to your inner witch. Curated experiences woven into Salem's history. Initiatory moments that open you to confidence, intuition, and magic. At the end of the retreat, I'll photograph each of you at the height of your becoming. You depart changed, not just transformed, but captured and seen in your becoming. It is an initiation. A passage into your next season of clarity and power. Only two spots are remaining, is the experience calling you, apply at thetravelwitch.com
