How is it already MARCH?! Somehow we’ve made it to this moment, and the vernal equinox is in sight. This month, I have two offerings to help make the most of this changing season. The first is a Tarot special. In honor of the coming spring, and that wonderful restless energy that tends to hit…

One of the things that drew me to Paganism early on was its emphasis on sovereignty: our path through this spiritual form is a self-governed one. We are our own priests, liturgists, omen-readers, and teachers. The edges of our Path gradually form themselves out of the different approaches and techniques we try. Over time most…
Mystics live in a world that contains more dimensions than the ones we talk about in geometry. Along with the practical world – the world of edges and measurements and truths we can prove in a petri dish or double blind study – there are less tangible layers all around us. One of these is…
Sometimes I realize that a thing I do is quite Pagan without ever having consciously linked the behavior to my belief system. At some point over the last decade, I began to prize experiences over objects.The growing awareness that most objects do not get recycled (including the “recyclable” ones), and that most items we purchase…
To be a witch is to be a liminal being in a world that loves absolutes. The phrase we learn early on about casting circles is generally something along the lines of “a time between times, a place between places.” From the very beginning of our dabblings in witchcraft, we learn to bend our perception…
New for 2023! I’m offering monthly Friday Night workshops on Zoom, starting in February, on a variety of Pagan and witchy topics. These workshops are all stand-alones, so you can take the entire series or just the ones that appeal to you. They are $15 each, with sliding scale options for folks who face financial…
One of the many things I love about being in service to the Pagan community is connection with practitioners at various points on their lives and spiritual paths. I am a witch of a certain age and practice, so I have blind spots and areas of assumption that I don’t always examine. Staying connected with…
Many times, when a pattern repeats itself for me a few times, I think of it as a cue to speak more widely about that particular pattern. The repeating theme right now? It’s luck. Over the last few months I’ve had an unusual number of clients, students, and friends come to me for help with…
The very first pre-Christian Deity I served was Brigid, an Irish goddess. As a young musician with a military background, she was easy for me to relate to. “A musician AND a blacksmith? Sign me up! I want to make music and hit things too!” I still consider my time in service to her to…
Many years ago, I was introduced to the idea of selecting a single word for each calendar year to act as an intention, touchstone, and big-picture goal. The beauty of a single word intention is that the simplicity means multiple ways of connecting are possible. For example, my word for 2020 was “Manifest.” One of…
