‘Her gift with wild birds allowed her to bring them to her merely by lifting her hand. From a distance, when she ran so fast she was nearly flying, it seemed as if she spoke their language, & was meant for their world more than her own.’ —Alice Hoffman 🐦‍⬛

A close-up of the incredible tufted fruits of a dandelion, sitting atop the seed head amongst the forget-me-nots in my garden. If you zoom in, does anyone else think they look like a cityscape of miniature Chrysler buildings? #WildflowerHour #DandelionChallenge

An old tradition says that a sprig of dried Hypericum, or “St. John’s Wort”, placed next to a cross over the doorway of a dwelling or cowshed on #WalpurgisNacht, will keep evil forces at bay, thus preventing them from entering inside to create mischief and mayhem. #FolkloreSunday

Raindrops on bluebells💜💙💜 I love the old name for them of 'cuckoo's boots' & the #folklore that they were rung to summon fairy gatherings💙 25-50% of the world's #bluebells are found in the UK #folkloreSunday

In Scots Gaelic lore, the Cat Sìth is a faerie that takes the shape of a large black cat with a distinctive white spot on it's chest. Some tales suggest that it's not a faerie, but a witch that can transform into a cat nine times. #folkloresunday #scottishfolklore

🌖🐇🌘Witches were said to shapeshift into hares, and in that form were often hunted but would always escape - however, if shot with a silver bullet they could be injured, and the wound would show up on the body of the Witch. #FolkloreThursday #FolkyFriday #FolkloreSunday

The Deadly Nightshade is said to belong to the devil. A favourite plant, he supposedly cared for it himself. You might gather it on Walpurgis Night when the devil is busy, but he’ll leave behind a demon guard which you can only distract with a gift of bread. 👿🍞 #FolkloreSunday

'Then, enraptured, you shall hear Secrets for a poet's ear. Mortal, mortal, come with me, When the moon is rising large, Through the wood or from the sea, Or by some lone river marge.' ~Bliss Carman 'Harmony in the Light of the Moon' by Sarah Stilwell Weber #FolkloreSunday

Sundanese folktale of Nini Anteh depicts the titular weaver with her cat, Candramawat. When trying to escape a prince who wanted to take her, Nini Anteh and her cat rose to the night sky. Their shadows with her loom were said to appear as dark spots on the moon. #FolkloreSunday

#FolkloreSunday German lore tells of witches, ghosts, fairies, devils and beasts gathering to meet upon the Brocken on Walpurgis Night, April 30th, named after St Walpurga. Traditionally people lit fires to ward off evil. 🎨Fritz Roeber, Walpurgis Night from Goethe’s ‘Faust.’

#FolkloreSunday Folklore once whispered of Witch gatherings on the Wrekin, close to where the Old Roman Road passed by on its way to Uriconium. Perhaps women really did gather and practice magic on dark nights...

#FolkloreSunday In Shropshire, when you saw the new moon, you would curtsey three times, each time spinning around to ensure that you receive a gift before the next moon. In Shrewsbury the practice is similar, only it requires 9 bows and cements luck rather than a gift.

Nocturnal mystery is embodied by our closest heavenly body, the moon. In Welsh Marches lore, the first new moon of the year provided the best time for divination, with the amount of moons seen when peering through a handkerchief indicating the years till marriage #FolkloreSunday

"Lady Bast, Beloved of the Gods, we call to you, Mighty Lady of the East, Right Eye of Ra... Thank you for the peace and protection you bring into our homes, to the temples and sanctuaries; to the people and your beloved animals!" —Hymn to Bast, circa 2000 BCE #FolkloreSunday

Monkshood babies. This plant was allegedly created by Hecate, goddess of witchcraft, from the saliva of Cerberus and the witch Medea tried to poison Theseus with it. Monkshood was also an ingredient in “flying ointment” and used to poison arrows and lances #FolkloreSunday 💀
