This spell started as a dare many years ago. It's about immersing yourself in water. It's both silly and serious. The spell draws on the power of water to revitalize us. As written, the spell is done in a body of water, but you can adapt it for your backyard, a pool, the shower, or even sitting at your kitchen table with a cup and a big bowl. The variations are endless. Note: If you're more than ankle-deep in water, keep your eyes open and have a friend with you. If you're not a strong swimmer, do this spell in the shower!Stand in a body of clean, cool water. Scoop water over your head three times, saying:I cleanse myself. Scoop water over your head three more times, saying:I invite in flow and movement. Douse yourself with three more scoops and say:Connect me to the ebb and flow of life, lubricate me, wash me, quench my thirst, revitalize me. Spend some time playing in the water.

All discussions of daylight saving time policy are doomed by a mix of contradictory, inconsistent, and impossible preferences, which is why I think the only thing we can really hope to do is to make it worse.

"Greenbacks" is the first episode to credit Mekia Cox as a starring cast member. She was billed as "guest star" in all her previous appearances.

Yesterday's post WILL BE REPLACED. A computer snafu guaranteed not that I made the error in the first place, but that the written, ACTUAL part seven is GONE.

It will be posted OVER the error post, and links adjusted.

My apologies.

The post is up!

Wednesday is ruled by Mercury, the winged messenger god of travel, communication, connection, and the digital realm. With summer well underway, it's time to make some travel plans.Grab your calendar and go through the next seven weeks, noting any times that you could get away. Maybe there is a Monday holiday coming up or a week at work you could take off. Highlight those dates, then make a list.Contact friends and family you long to see. Ask them: "Who wants to go camping, hiking, or exploring? Who has a cottage, boat, or trailer? Who wants to connect, talk, laugh, and eat? These are my dates and I would love to see you. I'm ready to travel, connect, and communicate."Then let Mercury work his magic, bringing you their replies. Wherever you can, honor the winged messenger and connect with a wholehearted yes.

Jules took a seat carefully, keeping his eyes on the plate and his drink. Loudmouth did not attempt to converse, but Stone cleared his throat. “Are there options for remote work for Noah…” The older man frowned. “Why do you not use a surname, if I may ask?”

“None of your business,” Noah snapped.

He shifted in his seat, then gulped at his drink. “I’m not the only one even at this embassy, either.”

In the kitchen, there was no one else waiting for drinks or food. Jules gestured toward the cabinet of cups and mugs, tilting his head in a silent request. The cook nodded. “Do you need anything else for the meeting?”

“A whole pound of catnip to mellow me out,” Jules declared, rolling his eyes. “Loudmouth wants lettuce wraps, and I should probably ask for enough for everyone, but I couldn’t eat one if I were paid its weight in gold.” He began assembling drinks, then tugged a folding tea trolley from the narrow gap between the refrigerator and the pantry cabinet beside it. “Where are those dessert bowls? I’d like one for ice cubes, but I can fetch it all if you tell me where the bowls are.”

I've been not exactly pleased with the glow effect on the carved teeth I did in my leather mask for my Tainted character for Dystopia Rising. I've been giving thought to how to get a better concentration of glow in the carved lines, and if I can find the LIT powder, my process should be pretty good here. I got one of the precision glue bottles with the three tips, and I've used the very fine tips to lay a line of paint down in the lines, and it's helping a lot.

Now if I can find the powder to make it even MORE glow, I'll be happy. Fortunately it all dries clear.

Greenback is a slang term for the U.S. dollar, as green is the color of U.S. paper currency. One of the synonyms of this idiom is "frogskin," as green is also the most common color of frogs.

By extension, "greenback" is also a slang word for "frog."

On the night of the new moon, go outside to a quiet place where you can clearly see the night sky. Bring with you an empty wallet, pouch, or other vessel where you would typically keep your money. Hold your empty wallet up to the moon, allowing it to fill with new moon energy. As you do, recite the following chant:New moon, new moon, with your silent glow, Bless me with prosperity and let abundance flow. Your silver coin brings life renewed, For I am filled with gratitude. Fill these pockets up with swag. Give me a full money bag. Close your eyes and imagine that the wallet is filling up with money and you are overflowing with financial success. Then gently close your wallet and put it in a safe and special place or on your money altar.

We are still seeking three pinch hits! I do have potential leads on a couple of them, but nothing definite. I'd very much appreciate any help finding other places to advertise these, such as fandom-specific discords I may not have access to.

Reposts on Tumblr are also welcome!

PDPH 10 (fic only) - Gran Hotel (TV), 무빙 | Moving (TV), 설강화 | Snowdrop (TV)

PDPH 11 (medium varies by relationship) - The Amazing World of Gumball, Osmosis Jones (2001), Dandy's World (Roblox)

While we wait, this is an excellent time to do another sweep of your creations to check them against your recipient's DNWs, fix typos, and any other last-minute needs! I hope you're as excited as I am for reveals.
