About Shivian
I am a power ginger that thrives within design and magick, starlight and music, laughter and love. I find joy in close friends, amateur photography, warm bonfires, starlit nights, and a vegan diet.
I am a witch; one who walks the crooked path and practices my arte in a way that's often ecstatic, woven amongst the spirits and gods, stars and land.
Witching interests include moving betwixt the spirits of the garden and greenwood seeking phytognosis; weaving amongst the stars and the black road between; brewing potions of life and death; scrying the fate of men and women amongst card, star, or bone; and horsing for the gods and spirits of lands seen and unseen.
I follow a crooked path of witchcraft originating in the traditional praxis of european cunning & grimoiric celestial craft; yet refined and vivified as dictated via holy gnosis sent forth from the manifest spirits of the current.
Professionally I am a website and graphic designer & developer, over the years having worked for Mercedes-Benz, Hyatt, Sears, and more.
I live with my two cats & loving husband in Chicago, IL where I run Potionwood, a witchcraft parlor specializing in unique solutions for your every wish; Sigilwood, creating unique, limited edition, ensorcelled witching wonders for fellow Brothers and Sisters of arte; and The Ashen Kinship, a crooked path of witchcraft.
