Veil Season: Five Ways to Deepen During the Dark

Posted on November 2, 2020October 26, 2020 by GlasseWitch

The Wheel of the Year has turned once more.  Samhain is past and the days grow shorter and darker till Yuletide reaches us. This is the season of shadow and quiet, of the inward spiral.  I think of the time from mid-October till Yule as Veil Season.  Although many people focus their Ancestral work specifically…

This short sermon was offered for the October 25th, 2020, streaming service at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Frederick. Full text below.

Made the local paper again ~ article on modern Paganism

Posted on October 28, 2018October 30, 2018 by GlasseWitch

You know, it really is lovely when a journalist elects not to go the sensationalist route when writing an article about modern day Paganism.  As an ‘out,’ public Pagan, I’ve had the anxiety-laden role of being a ‘token witch’ for someone’s piece several times.  I think Wyatt Massey did a really great job here in…
