Aquarius Witch: I have an article getting published in July!

I wrote an article about a year ago (haha, publishing is a super fast industry), and it's being published in an upcoming book from Llewellyn: Aquarius Witch, which is being released on July 8th!  It's a biography of Pamela "Pixie" Colman Smith, the artist behind the ubiquitous Rider-Waite-Smith tarot. She was herself an Aquarian Sun, a queer woman, and a very talented artist but she died penniless, her belongings being auctioned off after her death to pay her debts.  My article isn't very long, but if you want to read a longer biography (and look at pages and pages and pages of her artwork), check out Pamela Colman Smith: The Untold Story from US Games, Inc. It was probably my favorite and the most exhaustive of the sources I used to write my article. (Finally had a chance to use that history degree of mine, lol.)

I don't get royalties (because they already paid me, and it's suuuuper short), but the best way to support the main authors on this one is to go stick it on a wishlist on amazon... and then preorder it from your local bookstore!  If Aquarius is one of your Big Three, there will be plenty of useful witchy insight in this book for you.

Also...

I know I said I was BACK and then posted two weeks in a row and promptly disappeared again. Sorry.  Consider this a restart Take Two. I am going to attempt to blog every other week from here on out, because I'm still having a little trouble keeping my head above water.  Next weekend I'll be teaching a couple of classes at an online conference called Shining Hearth, so after that I might do a little recap, but also the following Monday is the first of the new schedule for Freyja's Falcon Flights. I'll be doing those on/around full moons this year, so I might get that out next weekend if I can manage it, otherwise it'll be posted later in the week.

Thanks for all your patience. I appreciate all my readers.
