Superstition #23

willow The willow has long been associated with sorrow and lost love.  In times gone by it was customary for people in mourning to wear sprigs of willow to indicate their loss.  The idea behind this was that the tree, to which grieving comes as second nature, would relieve the pain of the loss by assuming it itself.  Anyone who reveals secrets beneath a willow tree runs the risk of hearing the same secrets repeated by the wind.

Black Rock, Shoreline Sand






(fashiontoast, spell designs, random) 
A couple images from Spell Design's Warrior Princess shoot.  So passionately in love with the magnetic effects of these primal, earthy, soul-encapsulating images.

Superstition #66

heart  As the traditional seat of the soul, the heart has particular significance in the superstitions and traditions of witchcraft.  Removing the heart of a live pigeon and sticking it with pins will oblige a reluctant lover to fall passionately in love.  If the lover still proves unwilling, sticking a hare's heart with pins and burying it near a newly dug grave will cause the unconsenting party to experience a sudden decline in health, culminating in death.

Superstition #87

crooked  British folklore insists that finding anything bent or crooked, be it a coin, pin, or stick, is lucky and the object should never be parted with.  Farmers have been known to plough crooked furrows so that the fairies may not aim their arrows along the ridges towards their horses and oxen.
