Why AI is Antithetical to Witchcraft Should any witchcraft practitioner be using ChatGPT to write spells or rituals? In my opinion, no. Here's why.

Read my latest beautiful essay on August and summer reflections, and on anticipating autumn.

An excerpt:

"The season of fire has never been my favorite. There’s something about summer that I don’t trust. Perhaps it’s the nightmares of being baked to crisp black gingerbread, dying on an earth that’s too hot to live. Perhaps it’s due to all the loves that could only live for the season, bonds severed at the end of the holiday dying off like the last blooms in the heat, hearts full of seed scattered in opposite directions. Summer feels like stepping into an illusion, a heady fever dream, for a time. Perhaps my distrust comes from longing for what endures when summer is the epitome of ephemeral.."

August and Autumn Anticipation I love summer as best I can with her sticky heat and heady blooms, with her abundance of honest life and growth and death. I have spent my summer stuffing my soul with the sun.
