Medusa with the Head of Perseus, Luciano Garbati, 2008

I adore how she carries his head low, at her side, and not aloft in triumph. This is not a self-aggrandizing hero lauding her great deed. This is a woman who wanted to be left the fuck alone.

Also look at her body. The double hips. The asymetrical boobs. She’s thin, but she’s realistic as hell. That’s a real woman.

And the look in her eyes. Damn.

in case you ever need to show someone a picture of a nonsexualized nude woman, here’s one for you.

I have a lot of feelings about this myth like y’all just leave my girl a l o n e

Spirit Work Masterpost

thecoquettewitch:

So, I asked if there was anything not often covered in witchy information posts and @hopeforenvy suggested Spirit Work. Spirit Work fascinates me and I’m interested in learning more, but I don’t think I know enough about it to write my own post just yet, so I’m going to make a masterpost and include informational posts, spells, and sigils about and having to do with Spirit work. I found all of these by going through @sylvaetria ‘s Spirit Work tag, but I’m linking to the original post when I can in case this actually gets attention so that sylvaetria doesn’t get spammed with notifications.
