Autumnal blessings to you from our family to yours 🍁🍂

Happy Fall, Y’all!

Candles are burning,
The kettle is hot,
I meant to do magic—
Then forgot what I’d thought.

One of the many reasons why perimenopause and ADHD are a bad combination 😂

— Be well (and a little but twisted),

It’s almost time for our First Harvest. In our area, we consider more to be our midsummer because our growing season is so long here in Middle Tennessee, but the sentiment is still the same.

This year, our group will celebrate by floating down the Red River in friendship to celebrate sisterhood and the natural environment we have been blessed with here.

He says it better than I ever could. This is a lesson many of us learn after years and years and years of practice. Very insightful advice from a fellow traditional practitioner.

It’s our birthday! 20 years! And with that, a name change to reflect our latest incarnation. The Crooked Crossroads Society is now the Black Orchid Society, named after our women’s group. What does this mean? We’re still the same folk magic practicing, ancestor venerating, apothecary running group of ladies you’ve always known. We’re just officially changing our name.

Happy 20 years ladies, here’s to 20 more, and happy solstice! -Stephanie

The crossroads is a liminal space, on the edges of both the Otherworld and our world. Whether it’s to “meet the devil at midnight” or leave your troubles behind, the crossroads is one most powerful places for magic and mystery.
