I wish to create safer space. If you too wish to create safer space, wear a simple, unadorned #SafetyPin on your person. Mine is pinned to my purse so that it is always with me wherever I go.
Safer Space Begins With Us

My name is Ember Cooke. I serve the Vanir - Freyja, Freyr, and Their kin - as a priestess, minister, teacher, bard, artist, medium, and witch. Or to put it the Heathen way, as a gythia, galdrakona, and seidhkona.
My personal practice is more diverse, as the Vanir have lead me into cross-training, interfaith work, and counseling for the wider Pagan community as needed. My friends and allies may span the world, but it is the Vanir I love as family. -E-

I can’t offer those things everyday so I guess I’ll try to remember to put on or take off the pin the day of?

I doubt everyone who is wearing them as a new habit can offer that all the time, but most of us are unlikely to be asked *all the time*, so much as on an urgent basis. If you’re having a day where you feel like, even on an emergency interrupt basis, you couldn’t pull it together enough for that, then yeah, take the pin off for a day, no harm, no foul, I’m sure.
The point is not to support each other *instead* of ourselves, the point is to share the load.
