I’ve been seeing a lot of anti-Nazi ones, which is great, but I felt like we needed one to show our support for the Jewish community.

The Medical Herbal
ladies, gentlemen and your excellencies! I present to you the herbal medical--a notion booklet that will help you incorporate herbs into your practice/life while still supporting medicine.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
first, a little background: for my school project, I chose to create a book on the medicinal uses of herbs. me, being the prefectionist that I am, thought "hey rowan, why not write about all the systems in the human body instead of just making a dictionary on herbs?"
and yes, I do hate myself :D anyhow, that's how this came (or is coming) to fruition.
for those interested in learning both about the human body and which herbs to use to support the body, please consider checking this out?? (specifically green witches and herb enthusiasts <3)

holy cow this post is awesome
Just pick a god, make an offering, and start praying. It's not that big a deal.
The people of ancient times who worshipped these gods from cradle to grave didn't wait around for them to reach out first, that's for historically sure.

Reblog if
It’s 104% okay to come to your DM and just say, “Hi, can we be friends?” And then start asking you random questions.

i think we should all post more about the gross and embarrassing parts of our eating disorders !! its so easy for the young and vulnerable to view these disorders as something charming when in reality it involves so much shame and things you could never make beautiful

Xenia, and why it is our duty as Hellenic polytheists/pagans to be anti-racist and anti-fascist
I want to take the time today to write a brief article about why as Hellenic polytheists/pagans, one of the fundamental customs the Theoi ask us to observe, Xenia, demands us to be anti-racist and anti-fascist. Anyone who is not actively anti-racist and anti-fascist is in violation of xenia. Xenia is incredibly fundamental and important to us; this cannot be understated.
What is Xenia? On a surface level, xenia means “guest-right���/”guest friendship”. In Ancient Greece, this meant that all those who came to your house must be fed before you could ask their names or where they were from. You were required to protect your guests from harm, provide for all their needs, treat them as friends, and when they left, give them gifts. In return, guests must also treat their hosts with respect, kindness, good will, and in friendship. The guest-friendship relationship is reciprocal. Furthermore, one must welcome all, no matter class, color, or creed. The consequences of breaking xenia are played out in our most foundational texts; the Iliad, the Odyssey, among others.
As most of us no longer live in city-states on islands, we are required to reinterpret how to act in the spirit of Xenia.
Racists and fascists do not act in the spirit of Xenia. They actively break it. Many of us are marginalized in some way, in ways that racists and fascists would use as reasoning to exclude us from their houses and tables. Whether that’s racism, homophobia, sexism, transphobia, classism, and/or xenophobia (which comes from xenos, stranger, and is related to xenia). They do not treat us in kindness or good will. They would not protect us; in fact, they would actively harm us. They would deprive us of what we need. We are all harmed by racists and fascists, no matter who you are.
In the Odyssey, the suitors of Penelope break guest-right through treating their hosts, Penelope and Telemachus, with incredible disrespect and harm, destroying Telemachus’ inheritance, disregarding Penelope’s wishes, and disrespecting Odysseus. It becomes a divine mission on the part of Telemachus and Odysseus to drive them from their house.
From this example, we can reconstruct that it is a divine mission to protect ourselves from those who do not come in good faith and with good will, it is divine to drive out those who would hurt, attack, and disrespect us. 
We are mandated by the Theoi to welcome all who come in good faith, to keep away those who would exclude us or others, and to treat those who do come in good faith with not just kindness in actions but kindness in intentions.
Even the Ancient Greeks did not view themselves as one nation, but many nations bound by similar customs. Those who did not observe similar customs were treated the same as those who did. Anyone who practices Hellenic polytheism is welcome; to deny someone the Theoi based on who they are and where they came from spits in the face of the actual values of the Ancient Greek peoples.
We cannot let ourselves be driven out from our religion because of people who break Xenia and disregard the gods and the customs of those who originally worshipped the gods.

Before You Interact
hi! here is some basic info about me + things you can expect to find on my blog :))
my (online) name is rowan!! I will not be sharing my irl name so please don't ask--I am not comfortable with being called anything suggestive/nsfw so please, respect my boundaries
I am not a witch per se, but actually consider myself more as a researcher of sorts! this is not a wiccan or pagan account :)
my blog consists mostly of: witchcraft posts, spiritual stuff, information about various herbs and anything I find interesting, really
DNI if you are: racist, homophobic, xenophobic, a terf or swerf, a map/pedo or map/pedo supporter or just close-minded in general--this is not the place for that
if I post or reblog anything problematic/incorrect tell me! I am always, always open to learning more, especially about things I don't know a lot about--just be respectful about it! I can assure you that if I say something that goes against my moral code, it was by accident
my interests include; anime, reading, tv series, crochet, cooking, listening to music and researching things for no reason lol
That's it, byee!!
