I drew all of these, a while ago and after I got my new pad I felt like the other drawings didn't want to go in my closet with the rest of my art career.
I will explain them and hope that yousee the meaning behind these, okay?

The thing in her hand is actually my sun sign, But a pentagram was supposed to go there to celebrate the freedom and magic I felt when I preform pagan rituals in my daily life.

This one is actually very special to me and always picks me up when I'm down. The Walrus in the back is the spirit animal a very soecial friend told me I had. I sorta disagreed, However it makes me feel very good when I think about actually having a huge walrus follow me around.

This was more of a wish, then anything. I really wished I was able to see faeries, and the night after halloween.. I finally saw one.

This is my best friend. She believed in my when no one else could and expresses her love for nature as if she was a goddess herself. Here is her being the Goddess she will always be. {I originally had a fae on her shoulder and my friend ho deals with the fae wanted the little creature off her shoulder.}

I love rebirth. The glory and life of being reborn always fill me with a sense of power and grace. The caterpillar at the bottom is death and the very beginning. However, it is a loving end that comforts the chaotic soul and is peeling away the bandaged skin with a wish on it to find that nothing is there. The fact that there is nothing there symbolizes that not all glorious changes are seen, But the flowing cloud of butterflies escaping the bandages is proof of the change and gained freedom.

This is my favorite. When I first felt the calling to paganism I drew this when one of my best "wiccan" friends told me that she didn't feel anything great about me that paganism would accept. I wasn't meant for paganism and Witch craft would never accept me. She held me back a whole year of what I could have used to learn about what felt more natural to me then breathing. Well.. I tore my self away from her false truths about and have come a long way.. This celebrates my tearing away from things that keep me from where I am supposed to be. Now, I am better then she could ever imagine..

I drew this after I made my first deck of tarot cards out of a plain deck of 52 playing cards. I learned a lot about the cards, and loved the meanings and stories of every one of them. This is the lore I found out about the queen of hearts. How the queen of hearts drove the king of hearts to self destruction {Which is why he is always holding a knife to his head.} Because of that story, I made sure the king of hearts stood for self destruction.

This was actually a vision I saw when thinking about the dangers of magic and how a weak soul can be sucked into it trying to gain a sort of power. The skeleton is the is the neglected body and a tormented soul that wanted revenge, But instead that revenge laid down the roots for a hell no one can imagine. Always hungry, always reaching and grabing for something and forever crying. The moon at the top is obscured and symbolizes the twisted veiw of divine power this person hopes to obtain. However, there are butterflies. They are waiting for you to fall in the most beautiful way so that someday you can be reborn..

This is a close up of the tree and the eyes that forget to see the pain this person causes, But cries for it's own pain.

Last one! I drew this after trying to scry for the first time and sort failed. It has more meaning behind it; But I kinda want to let you guys figure it out for your self.
Thank you for looking. I hope it wasn't too depressing.
