Hi everyone, I hope you're all doing well! 💙

I am a Wiccan from Brazil, home to many native indigenous ethnicities, a lot of which are polytheistic. Although I am not indigenous myself, I love studying indigenous religions and learning from them! 😊 Today, I’d like to share a little bit about Jaci, the Goddess of the Moon, who is revered by many indigenous peoples

In some Guarani pantheons, Jaci (or Iaci) is the magnificent Goddess of the Moon. She is affectionately known as the "mother of fruits" or the Queen of the Night, and she plays a central role in the cosmology of this Brazilian indigenous people

Most of the versions I have studied about the Goddess say she is the daughter of Tupã, but I have also found some versions stating that she is the daughter of Nhanderu, the Supreme God, and the sister of Tupã

Jaci was created to be the counterpart and companion of Guaraci (the Sun God). While Guaraci rules over the day, warmth, and wakefulness, Jaci reigns over the night, gentleness, and rest, illuminating the darkness to guide earthly beings 💖

Jaci is associated with several vital elements for nature and human life. She is considered the protector of marine life, plants, and the cycles of nature that depend on the lunar phases

She is also the Goddess who blesses love, romance, and affection. Furthermore, Jaci is the one who awakens a deep longing in the hearts of warriors and hunters, drawing them back home to their wives and families

She is an incredible and deeply cherished Goddess with a wonderful story!

Here in the UK, the government meteorological office, which does most of the weather forecasting, splits the year into three month segments, with spring being march-april-may, summer being june-july-august, autumn (fall) being september-october-november and winter being december-january-february. On that basis, today - 1st September - is the first day of autumn/fall. However I am aware that not everyone uses those definitions, both in terms of start and end dates and in some cases assuming a longer (4 month) summer and winter and a shorter (two month) spring and autumn/fall.

I'd be interested to know what season dates people here use, to get a feel for what is most common in the Wiccan community.

For those who do follow the Met Office, happy Autumn/Fall.

does a squirrels tail have any type of purpose? my child and i found one at the park and was curious if i could use it for anything?

I've gained an interest in runic divination. I have some lengths of wood from a tree branch that fell recently, and would like to cut the branch into slices and inscribe runes onto the slices. However, I need to know more about runes before I do this. What are some good resources to learn more about runes?

Hi, I paid an Etsy witch to get a new job. Two of my friends paid the same Etsy witch, and nothing happened to them. However, since I paid the witch, I got sick, I got spit on on the train, and I also had my foot stepped on on the train.

I told the witch about this, and she said it's not dark magic, so I shouldn't have any bad karma, but it doesn't seem that way.

Is there anything I can do to get my karma back right?? Im honestly scared.
