Colour Witch's Coven - The Threshold

Action. Courage. Creativity.

Orange is the colour that says: stop thinking about it and just bloody do it.

It's the colour of movement, of making things happen, of creative problem-solving when you've been stuck in your head for way too long.

And today's Fylgia (spirit animal)? It's the magpie. Bold, clever, curious. Magpies don't overthink. They spot the shiny thing, and they go get it. They're collectors, creators, problem-solvers. They're not afraid to stand out or make a bit of noise.

Imagine orange and magpie energy together? That's unstoppable.

I know it’s Monday, but at this time of year, we can get stuck in what we think we're supposed to do - buying the perfect gifts, putting up the perfect decorations, the perfect everything. Orange asks: OK so what if you just made something instead (and it's not actually perfect)?

The Orange Challenge:

Today, find one creative thing you've been putting off or thinking about a

nd just do it. Make something for Christmas that's a bit you, not what you think you should make, but what you'd actually enjoy.

A decoration that's a bit odd. A gift that's handmade and wonky. A card. A sketch. Something baked. Whether it takes you ten minutes or an hour, it really doesn't matter. Just start. Just do it as they say!

Magpies don't do boring, and they don't hesitate when they spot something worth having, they just swoop in and grab it. Be the magpie today.

What are you going to make? I'd love to see!
