whenever i get sidetracked the thing that gets me back to being spiritual is crafting.
It relaxes me and makes me connect with the universe. And i love how putting time in making an item adds to the magic. Whether you make jewelry, paint, sculpt, make ritual oils, it is the time, the intention that matters.
One of the books I own* sais ‘your ritual already starts, the moment you start planning it’ and I love that.
For me crafting ritual items is important. I don't know why really, it just makes my connection/rituals more personal i think.
Since I made time for being spiritual, I adopted more different crafts. When I came across an auction show on tv, (about a year ago) I was captured by the beauty of a necklace, made from human hair. And though I didn’t see it as something I should do, it never left my mind.
When thinking about a gift for a handfasting ritual, I decided that I should give it a try, so I ordered some books about braiding. I don’t intent to make anything for this occasion (the couple lacks hair) but I hope I can do so on future occasions.
When looking for hairwork online I found great (non-braided) hair-jewelry

*this is not a litteral quote, and i really don't know wich book it was.

soul journaling
A friend posted this on FB today.
With midwinter (jule/joel) start the 13 holy nights. this is a important period of speculation and silence. consciously experience the winter solstice and feel that the light comes back. Allow yourself these days to be as silent as the nature. every night is a zodiac image for the new order of the year. Try to plan completely nothing and just live day by day. Feel the silence. take your time. do everything with your full attention.(@yule agenda)
I have been quite lost lately, and when i got a discount email for laura hollicks courses i thought of it as a sign. https://www.soulartstudio.com/
So i signed up for the creativity cleanse. Keeping a soul journal about my intention, and why and how i am going to live by it.
one of the assignments was write down ways you would feel if your life was trifting, if you were the most whole version of yourself you could be.
And draw some of those.
This is me, dancing life.
