Happy June, my friends! I’m coming to you from a thunderstorm-soaked Merrimack Valley.
It’s been a long time! I have recently moved my Substack subscribers to my new email provider, Buttondown. I’d love to have you stick along for the ride.
Today I am relaunching eightofpentacles.com, and with it, a project that has been near and dear to my heart for many months: Eight of Pentacles Press. With more details to come soon, my availability will open in mid-July to create beautiful work for lovers, artists, mystics, and makers. In addition to branding and communication design, I have some new divination-related work, fresh from the Press, that I can’t wait to share with you later this month.
My three favorite essays from my former website and Substack blog are available for you in the meantime:
Reflections on Decomposition: the importance of death in healthy physical and spiritual ecosystems
On Omens: on trusting one’s gut, and a still-relevant peek into my 2023 Omen Walk
On Animal Omens: respecting the personhood of wildlife in omen interpretation
Wishing you a sparkling Gemini season,
Ash
