Most witches are far from the lands of their forebears. We are far from the bones of our magickal ancestors.

As more humans begin to skirt the periphery of a true existence with Mother Earth, we are beginning to realize that we are connected on a de

This time of year is the perfect time to plant powerful seeds of intention in fertile soul soil.

"If we know our stories, then we know where we came from, and we can travel anywhere in the world and not offend anyone. All of the stories are similar, if not the same.” - Evangeline (Sunny) Dooley In synchronicity with Mother Earth Living in synchronicity with Mother Earth is not a destination. It is the journey. Wherever you are, it’s time to start this adventure. Nature is not just out there. When we realize that we are part of this wondrous whole, we’ll know that wh

When we live with the seasons, we embrace the very heart of that season and live in harmony with the weather patterns, our body, home, and hearth. Living with the seasons is living with nature. To me, there is a sense of romance around the simplicity of this way of being. Unconsciously, I have always marked the changing of the seasons, but never fully wrapped my whole being into them, because of the busyness of my life. My mind was always looking ahead to the next season. Slo

I have a new ritual during the dark of the moon and the full moon to soothe the soul. A little candlelight and imagine taking in the light of the full moon and dark moon for balance. The moon's light is the one that does not burn. Here's my little Moon Magic treat. Moonlight Milk with permission from Loveshovel 1 cup nut milk (store-bought or homemade) 1 dropperful Ashwaganda tincture Small chunk of Cacao butter (or 1 Tbsp coconut oil) 1/4 tsp cinnamon a pinch of salt Splash

Plants are incredibly complex Beings, living in harmony with kindreds and connected to a community of companions. Mother Earth provides for their needs and they reciprocate with blooms, fruit, colors, and fragrance. Their root systems dive deep where they quietly communicate and contribute to the soul soil to the mutual benefit of all life forms within the ecosystem. In earlier times in our history, humans lived in harmony with the natural world. Plants were considered intell

Our lives are getting more complicated and less interesting. We wander through our world with blinders on, not acknowledging each other or even ourselves. Our electronics demand more and more of our time and energy, but what we really need is time in nature. Hands in the soil. The energy of the Earth herself is the energy of change and healing, expression and integration. We, as humans, can harvest and harness this energy for healing. And I don’t mean that in a controlling, p

Earth represents the energy of nurturing, nourishing, abundance, belonging, and home. It is the energy of the great mother, and because we are of Earth, we hold this same power within us. However, if we hold onto wounds inflicted by others, this makes the connection to this powerful energy very difficult. If you think of Mother Earth as a dangerous place to be, a place to use for your own benefit, and separate from yourself, you will go through life cut off from the one great

The economic, social, and political events happening all over the world today have triggered changes that come at us so quickly that we run in circles trying to figure out how our lives will be affected in the next six months to a year. There is negative noise from around the world bombarding us daily from news to social media. And let us not forget the craziness of our everyday lives—coping with aging parent, moody teens, angry young men, and navigating workplace politics.

Goddess permaculture (as created by Colette O'Neill from Bealtaine Cottage) is about planting like your life depends on it, because it does. I've found that my spiritual and everyday life are very much intermingled. I like being prayerful and intentional as I walk with the Great Mother and create my Spirit-filled gardens with prayers and offerings. Now that we're in the Spring, here in the Northern Hemisphere, it is a time of planting seeds. These are not just for your garden

Burnout happens when we get trapped in a cage of our own expectations, based on society’s materialistic and power-driven version of success

Many things in our world are changing. We are living in a time of a great awakening. Do you feel it? A lot of people are becoming more aware of issues and practices that have lasted for a long time, but need to change. After all, change is the only constant. Many people want to take their lives back into their own hands and escape the model imposed by society in order to really know happiness and live the life they truly want to live – not one dictated by television, magazine
