I do believe in an everyday sort of magic - the inexplicable connectedness we sometimes experience with places, people, works of art and the like; the eerie appropriateness of moments of syncronicity; the whispered voice, the hidden presence, when we think we’re alone.”

— Charles de Lint

Wolves in the Throne Room - Primordial Arcana (2021)

“There is something waiting for us at the edge of the woods, and it is our fate to meet it.”

— Clarissa Pinkola Estés, from Women Who Run With the Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype.

The Witch, 2015.

Night is not less wonderful than the day . . . it is lit by the splendor of the stars and it reveals things to us that the day does not know. Night is closer than day to the mystery of all beginning. The abyss is open only by night: day spreads a veil over it.

Nicolas Berdyaev, "The Middle Ages"
