Folk Magic vs TicketSquad

I made Folk Magic the way I’d share these old ways with my own friends: plainly, warmly, and with care. It’s a working library of traditional folk magic, the household craft of charms, knots, candles, herbs and seasonal custom, for anyone from the curious beginner to the long-practised hand. This is folk magic as it was recorded: the craft of cunning folk and wise women, and of ordinary households with a broom by the door and a pot on the hearth. It isn’t Wicca. It’s the old craft, plainly told, in a form you can use. Its roots are mostly British and Irish, and where a practice comes from another tradition, Scandinavian, Germanic, African or elsewhere, it’s named and credited with respect. Every piece tells you where it comes from. Each article, working and recipe is marked as a historical record, adapted from tradition, or a modern piece built on tradition, with its sources named, so you always know what you’re holding. EVERY DAY Each morning there’s a tarot card to turn, with a gentle reading for the day ahead. Each night the moon takes over: its true phase and old name, the night’s working laid out step by step, the seven knots of the month, and the planetary hours alongside the day’s planet. YOUR TOOLS Lay a spread, ask the pendulum board, cast the staves, toss a coin, or read the tea leaves and the wax. The book of signs holds what the old readers took each shape and omen to mean, every meaning credited, with room to add the sayings your own family kept. YOUR JOURNAL Readings are kept just as they fell, beside your own thoughts on them, gathered by moon and by season. A moon later the journal gently asks how things turned out, and in time it notices the cards and staves that keep returning. Write down workings of your own in the app’s own shape, and keep a shelf of the workings you have in hand. LEARN The spirits, herbs, crystals, birds and beasts of folklore, the poison garden, signs and omens, moon lore, the history of the craft, and the old calendar month by month, with its quarter days, festivals and saints’ days. And the folklore itself, told as it was carried: Jenny Greenteeth, Peg Powler, Black Annis, the Wild Hunt, the Cailleach, the Boggart, Will-o’-the-Wisp, Tom Tit Tot and Black Shuck. WORK Candle magic, charmwork, knots and bottles, cleansing and protection, love and parting, fortune and livelihood, healing and the body, land and weather, garden and growing, needle and thread, moon work, divination, rituals, and long workings that run through the year. HEARTH Simmer pots, teas, washes, oils, perfumes, lotions, baths, kitchen and pantry work, home blessings, and the old remedies. The household side of the craft, where so much of it has always lived. EVERYWHERE YOU ARE The moon and the sun are worked out for where you live, and south of the equator you can choose to follow the year as it turns there. Choose reminders from the sky, like the dark moon, the full moon or the eve of a festival, and keep tonight’s moon, the day’s old name and your card on your Home Screen. YOURS ALONE Folk Magic tracks nobody and collects nothing. Your journal stays on your phone, and travels to your other devices through your own iCloud if you’d like it to. FREE OR FULL Your daily card, the whole tarot deck, your journal and a good share of the library are free, forever. The full library and the tools open with a small monthly subscription, and the first week is free. Folk magic is a folk tradition, and this app is for reading, interest and practice in that spirit. It isn’t medical, legal or psychological advice. The old remedies are recorded as history and household custom, not prescription, and where something needs a doctor, the article says so.

Getting tickets for a big festival or gig is a team sport. Someone has to remember the on-sale date, everyone needs their registration details ready, and when you get through the queue you have about ninety seconds to get it right. TicketSquad is where your group gets organised before that moment. PLAN TOGETHER Create an event, invite your friends, and see at a glance who's in, who's still deciding, and who hasn't sent their details yet. SPLIT INTO BUYING GROUPS Most sales cap how many tickets one person can buy. Break your squad into groups that match the limit, so nobody is left out by accident. EVERYONE'S DETAILS, IN ONE PLACE Registration numbers, booking references, whatever the sale needs - collected ahead of time and ready when the queue opens. You decide what the group can see and what stays private. KNOW WHEN IT MATTERS We track on-sale dates for hundreds of festivals and gigs, so you don't have to. Get a reminder before, and an alert the moment the sale starts. AFTER THE SALE Record who got what, sort out who's covering whom, and keep everyone in the loop without a fifty-message group chat. TicketSquad works alongside ticket sellers - we don't sell tickets, and we never ask for your payment details.
