Protect The Coven / Dyke Rising

Protect the coven. Remember who came before us. Take up space.

The Protect The Coven / Dyke Rising Throw Pillow is a celebration of sapphic resistance, community, liberation, and pride—wrapped in a little witchcraft and a lot of defiance. At the center stands a proud dyke protecting her coven, surrounded by imagery drawn from generations of lesbian and queer resistance. The labrys became associated with lesbian feminist movements and came to represent strength, independence, and sapphic solidarity. The reclaimed triangle points back to queer people transforming imagery once used against our community into symbols of resistance. And then there is the word DYKE itself— a word historically thrown at lesbians as an insult, but also reclaimed by generations of lesbians who refused to carry somebody else's shame. This is our nod to the lesbians who fought before us, to the queer people who turned persecution into resistance, and to the butches, femmes, dykes, witches, activists, outsiders, and troublemakers who built community when the world told them not to. This isn't just spooky décor. It's liberation, memory, protection, and pride.
