The Significance of Rings

Rings add weight to the area of life that the finger represents, or could reveal imbalances. A ring placed with intent can enhance areas of your life. This can be strengthened by rings with corresponding crystals. When a ring is worn unconsciously, it more likely refers to the negative trait or imbalance that corresponds with that finger. Left hand: Corresponds to your personal and private life. Connected to family and personal identity or internal issues. Your left hand reflects the energy you take in. Right hand: Relates to your public life. Connected to work and your relation to society. Your right hand reflects the energy you give out. Middle Finger Element: Earth Considered the finger of cultural identity. It reflects how you related to justice, law, order, and responsibility. Can also signify inner security or materialism. Consciously placed ring: Reduce anxiety, improve stability, desire for self-development. Unconsciously placed ring: domestic unhappiness, insecurities, judgmental, lack of security. Crystals: garnet, onyx, agate, topaz, tiger’s eye, jade.

Index Finger Element: Water Considered the finger of personal identity, how you relate to and see yourself. Associated with leadership, ambition, and self-confidence. Consciously placed ring: Boost self-esteem, increase authority, improve confidence. Unconsciously placed ring: Damaged self-esteem, feeling not good enough, feeling better than others, controlling personality. Crystals: tourmaline, lapis lazuli, peridot, opal, emerald. Ring Finger Element: Fire Represents your extra-personal identity and self-expression. It represents creativity and love of beauty. If it’s a wedding ring or engagement ring, it represents success in finding a mate. But if bought by the wearer it can represent self-love. Consciously placed ring: Strengthen creativity, express friendliness, improve aesthetic awareness. Unconsciously placed ring: Creative frustration, concern with image, desire to be liked. Crystals: garnet, ruby, pink tourmaline, diamond. Little Finger Element: Air Considered the finger of impersonal identity. It reflects communication and sexuality. Also represents confidence in relationships and strength. Consciously placed ring: Improve communication, express sexuality/sexual identity, gain confidence in regards to relationships. Unconsciously placed ring: Poor communication, lies, difficulty with sexuality/sexual identity Crystals: blue topaz, sapphire, aquamarine. Thumb Element: Ether Your thumb symbolizes your spiritual identity. It relates to your will power, determination, and application of personal energy. It also reflects your ability to reason and apply logic. As the thumb is separate from the rest of the fingers, and a very useful finger, it also represents strength, independent thought, and freedom. Consciously placed ring: Boost energy level, increase will power/motivation, provide comfort, increase reasoning, increase personal strength and independence. Unconsciously placed ring: lack of energy, feeling powerless, lack of control, poor reasoning, feeling trapped, stubborn/stuck in own way, need for control, aggressive/forceful Crystals: moonstone, diamond, amethyst. Rings on all/many fingers This can indicate a negative circumstance that you are being faced with. It shows a likely lack of feeling safe or secure in your world, and that your putting on a front. It can also signify avoidance to deal with issues affecting your life.

Tarot of Pagan Cats ✨

it’s just hard not to think about the fact that in 1915, JRR Tolkien went to war not with but certainly in the same army and many of the same battles as his 3 best school friends, all nicely upper class young men who had never known much loss, and only he and one other came back alive - and a couple decades later, he wrote a book in which 3 nicely upper class young men (and one very excellent gardener) who have never known much loss go to war together, or at least they start out together, and they all come home alive. (Though one cannot bear it, and does not stay.)

tbh it doesn't rly hurt teenagers to incorrectly id as ace like... what's the worst than could happen? they don't have sex till they're older?? lol

Stewed Pompion (Squash soup)

This recipe is a bit more labor intensive than others I’ve posted but it was well worth it in the end and will absolutely make you feel like a medieval maid toiling away over a steaming cauldron (slow cooker).

One of the earliest recipes from the New England region, first written down around 1600:

“But the Housewives manner is to slice them when ripe, and cut them into dice, and so fill a pot with them of two or three gallons, and stew them upon a gentle fire a whole day, and as they sink, they fill again with fresh Pompions, not putting any liquor to them; and when it is stew'd enough, it will look like bak'd apples; this they Dish, putting Butter to it, and a little Vinegar, (with some Spice, as Ginger, &c.) which makes it tart like an Apple, and so serve it up to be eaten with Fish or Flesh.”

Ingredients:

• 4 cups butternut squash meat, chopped into smallish cubes

• 4 cups vegetable broth

• 4 tbsp butter

• 3 tbsp raw or brown sugar

• 1 tsp ground ginger

• 1/2 tsp freshly grated nutmeg

• 1/2 tsp curry powder

• 1/4 tsp cinnamon

• 4 tbsp apple cider vinegar

• In a mortar and pestle: 1/2 tsp dried oregano, 1/4 tsp cumin seeds, 1/4 tsp rosemary, 1/2 tsp basil, 1/2 tsp salt, a few peppercorns and grind to powder

Part one: Place all of the above ingredients into your slow cooker on low/medium. Once that is going, start on part two.

Ingredients continued:

• 1 tbsp EVOO

• 1 small sweet onion, diced

• 2 carrots, chopped (about 1 cup)

• 3 cloves garlic, minced

Part two:

In a skillet heat oil and sauté onion until it is becoming translucent. Add the carrots and cook 3 minutes, add garlic and stir for about a minute or two.

Add this to the slow cooker.

Now you can pretty much leave it for the day, begin this process early so it will be ready by dinner time. Give it about 8 hours on low/medium then carefully blend until smooth using an immersion blender or by carefully ladling it into a regular blender.

Return to slow cooker and add 1/4 cup of cream (or half and half for a lighter version), salt and pepper to taste.

Thin with vegetable broth if it becomes too thick.

Vegan substitutions: Swap in vegan butter for butter and canned coconut milk for the cream.
