🌿 Everyday Magickal Moment – Follow One Thread
Notice one thing that sparks your curiosity today.
Perhaps it's a word you haven't heard before, an unusual building, something someone mentions in conversation, a book title, an idea, a place, or a question that suddenly appears in your mind.
Ask yourself: "What happens if I follow this?"
Say: "I pay attention to what calls my curiosity."
Then follow the thread for ten minutes. Look something up, ask the question, make a note, have the conversation, or explore the idea a little further.
