She gazed into the mirror, her eyes cast in a blank stare. As she softened her focus a halo formed around the edges where the glass met the frame. It drifted towards her like fog across the surface of a pond. She was enveloped in the soft cloud, and felt the air change around her. On the other side of the mirror sat her Otherworld guide, Sir Whiskers. “Step through,” he said, “and come with me.”

Feliz Mabon! Bendiciones!!!
El equinoccio de otoño marca la fecha en la que Magos y Brujas se reúnen para agradecerle a la Tierra una temporada de cosecha abundante. A esta serie de festejos se le conoce como Mabon.
Los paganos nos reunimos en torno a una mesa atestada de comida. Tras una temporada de cosechas buena, compartimos los frutos de la tierra con la comunidad desde hace varios siglos, a lo largo de una semana.
Whisker
The black whisker stood out against the tan rug. It was a long, stiff, hollow one. I picked it up, wondering what the original owner might have looked like. With it clasped between my fingers, it started a low vibrating hum. I felt the whisker send tingling up my arm and into my head. An image unfolded of a lovely black cat, yellow eyes glowing. And one simple phrase- “Now you know.”

More cosplay of draft commons. Forget legendary creatures and rares and mythics. This card is a C+ in draft.
It was strange to cosplay a common. Limited players and the cosplay community have less overlap compared to commander players, who tend to focus on high rarities. Commander is still a constructed format.
I had to explain my costume pretty frequently to people who haven’t drafted Eldraine much.

"Tee-hee! I'm such a trickster!"
Here's a really nice, though fairly old, drawing of Niki! Before redesigning her, I wanted her to be a mischeivous magician. It would've been nice to imagine her casting spells and such. Still, I'm not passionate with magicians, so I made her a knight instead (also, I gave her new eyes).

You made the Law, and though I fear it
I still keep a familiar spirit,
And gastromancy is my trade.
So I will raise the speaking shade
Of one who can inform your choices.
Tomorrow, my projected voices
Prophesy, you will know defeat.
Till then, how ‘bout a bite to eat?
Who am I?

I finished Ovid's Metamorphoses last night. (McCarter translation)
I expected mythology but I was surprised by the amount of magic. Like, woman with wild hair in the woods at night with a wand and cauldron, mixing herbs and casting spells.
I guess I had associated that with more Germanic (Grimm fairy tales) literature. Apparently a lot of that imagery comes from Rome.

@Nuki As a corollary to this, riggers and rope bunnies would be the two kink groups closest to rope magic. Thats also a huge section of sympathetic magical practice. Mystical knotwork. Lots of binding spells. Could make for a very kinky handfastening ceremony. #pagan #magic #YouTookItTooFar

Download a zip file from the link below and simply run The Spirit of Corruption.exe file.

https://ooze.net/dion-fortune-was-a-shaman-fight-me/
Violet Mary Firth, later known as Dion Fortune, was one of the most formidable occultists of her day. Her work was an important influence on many Neo Pagans, most notably Gerald Gardener, but also on others later such as Druids Isaac Bonewits and John Michael Greer. She was an interesting mix of clairvoyant medium and university trained psychologist and, I argue, much of her work was remarkably shamanistic in character.

"FRAGMENTED"
by Rob Strati in his words.
This work was inspired by a plate from my wife's late mother, Barbara. One day it was dropped and shattered. Some time after, I picked up a pen and started working on the "Fragmented" series, exploring the possibilities of things broken and the stories that can evolve from them.

This is Vietnamese laser programmer and performance artist Lại Trần Ninh Kiềm. He is doing some mind-blowing things with his art form.
The transition between environmental and manual control of the lasers is wild. And he has meticulous, granular-level control over the illusion. It’s quite remarkable.

I'm live on twitch! Come hang out with me while I play Night Call: https://www.twitch.tv/averymd #magic
It’s been four months since I lost my home, but I’m finally settled enough with my partner to reassemble my altar! ❤️ #witchcraft #magic
It's been quite a treat to get such a long-range preview of what's to come, on #Magic's 30th anniversay. What do you think of the announced sets? What has you most/least excited?
As for me, none of the announced Universes Beyond collabs really caught my eye (except for a cautious, wait-and-see interest in the Final Fantasy crossover), but I am PUMPED for 2024's premiere slate:
-#MurdersAtKarlovManor: #Ravnica isn't my favorite plane (I have no issue with it, but I kind of missed it the first time around) but I'm always down for a murder mystery.
-#OutlawsOfThunderJunction: I've dreamt of a #WeirdWest #MagicTheGathering set since the 1990s, when I first played the Deadlands: Doomtown CCG. I even came up with a combat keyword mechanic for it once (Shootout, a way to split combat damage)! Cannot wait to see what the *actual* Wizards have come up with.
-#Bloomburrow: Get outta town! I had not one, not two, but THREE #Redwall -themed RP websites on Geocities when I was a younger teen. I read every book Brian Jacques ever wrote up til his death, save like one or two. Redwall and (especially) Mossflower defined so much of my childhood reading experience. I'm all in.
#DuskmournHouseOfHorror: I hope this is a new plane. I hope the ENTIRE plane is one impossibly large Winchester House nightmare of phantom staircases, sub-sub-sub basements, pivoting walls, and blood-soaked ghosts seeking vengeance for long-forgotten crimes. Even if that doesn't end up being the case, though, I have high hopes.

#WritingWonders 2. Cont.
A little inspired by Seven Samurai, Grizelle has an inner circle of confidants with different useful abilities and I have spent the last week or so trying to figure out their stories.
They all have names now, and I have a good idea of where they have come from. I'll maybe explain more in a later question!

2. How much do I know about the Side Characters now, before I've fully started the first draft?
I was working on Grizelle's voice and trying to figure out how she gets from where she is at the start to being a commander of a regiment. That was when I realised she needed people around her to motivate her, so the side characters began to appear in my plotting.

Continuing with Grizelle's story again this month as this is a great way to character and world build!
1. Which of my side characters would I like to hang out with?
Grainne. She's based on one of my favourite women from history, Grace o'Malley. Grace was an Irish pirate queen during the reign of Elizabeth the 1st of England and did not bow to anyone.
Here's her wiki bio:
