Wanna know the word that get me ants-in-my-pants excited? Authenticity. ..and Free Money, of course, but lets talk about option number one. Living authentically, in that you are 100% true to yourself and your soul’s calling/likes/whims/wants, so gives me goosebumps. I’m currently trying to figure out how to bring more of it into my own […]
I remember reading Louise L Hay’s You Can Hear My Life after years of people telling me to read it, and the thing that jumped out and grabbed me was when she said that the base problem of all our problems is self love and that we don’t think we are good enough. What? I […]
I’ve been reading Avalon Within by Jhenah Telendru and am thinking about using mythology as inspiration. A long time ago, when I started reading grown up copies of the greek myths as oppose to the watered down illustrated kiddy versions, I decided I Did Not Like Greek Mythology. Let me sum it up for you: […]
Witches know that darkness in itself is not evil – that’s why a lot of us don’t like being called white witches and don’t quite trust stuff named “Lightworking”, as it’s feeding into the dark-is-evil sterotype. Generally bad stuff tends to get called dark or gets roped under the “darkness” category, probably because dark is […]
So have I been mired in my own self pity these last few days. I’m a girl, I have ups, I have downs. So I completed the age old girly feel-better ritual – bubble bath, smelling of cuddles. And a book. Dipping into de Grandis for some words of wisdom (I promise, I do read […]
I have been hunting, and I discovered that as part of the house move I did some five months ago, all my 101 books are back at my mum’s house, and I have only my favourites with me. Sigh. There goes all my 101 revision. What I am learning however, is the power of prayer. […]
I’ve been reading The Power by Rhonda Byne, being the sucker for pop-new-age that I am. The Power, if you hadn’t guessed already, is love. Duh. Basically it’s The Secret all over again, saying “love” instead of “positive thinking”. That’s cool with me, as I got it from the library instead of forking out the […]
Honestly, I’m a witch in training. I’ve been at it a decade, but still in training! Recently I’ve really been feeling a need to dive back into the basics of witchcraft and Goddess Spirituality and, ahem, practice them. My spiritual cravings tend to wax and wane, as I suspect everybody’s does, but now that my […]
Over Christmas, we made a Christmas Buddha-shrine in our sitting room instead of a Christmas tree. It lit up and everything. My housemate is Buddhist, so it was the sensible course of action. Hooray! It’s still there – it’s too nice to take down. This Ostara, after living here with my housemate and my boyfriend (name of Superman) for the last […]
Dear regular reader, you may have noticed a mermaid theme running through a lot of my posts. I confess – I FREAKIN” LOVE MERMAIDS, AND I DON’T CARE WHO KNOWS IT. Here are six reasons why. 1. I am super-crazy about the not-quite human. I spent my kiddy days reading mythology, pretending to be an […]
I’ve found the traditional elemental associations of the wheel of the year a little odd, always. I think it’s regularly earth in winter, air in spring, fire in summer, and water in autumn, and so they are associated with each of the season’s exquinoxy events. But, like wands being associated with fire in the Tarot, […]
Ostara is a time of balance between, well in theory, all things. It’s balance, innit? Daytime and nighttime are the sametimes. I love the equinoxes, the planetery celebrations of the Goddess’ wheel – when you can see the seasons changing. I’ve always seen the pagan wheel as divided into sections by the equinoxes and solstices, […]
I remember being a cheery teen wiccan, chowing down books of spells and goddess mythology, wanting to belong. I’m not sure I had much direction even then, or a solid path of what I wanted to do with the wicca stuff, I just knew that if I found my tradition and my magical name all […]
I love Wendy Rule – this is from her album The Lotus Eaters, which since I discovered spotify and Superman bought it for me for Christmas, I have basically been listening to Wendy all year. I think you will love her too, humble reader.
I’m getting back into Tarot. Hooray! One of my life goals is to be a pro tarot reader. Now, I’m not bothered if this doesn’t happen till I am 65, so no pressure at all. However, I do much less reading for other people than I used to, and honestly, I am just getting back […]
Starhawk sometimes get’s described as stuff like “the godmother of modern wicca”. Her book The Spiral Dance was supposed to be one of THE books on wicca. Frankly, I read it and, although alright, it wasn’t anything riveting or anything I didn’t know already. It’s so not in my top list of books I didn’t […]
I’m following Kathy Jones’ Priestess of Avalon course this year, and around Imbolg time we are encouraged to think about the attire of a priestess. Her ceremonial togs, if you will. There’s a whole witchy-person trend towards Renaissance wear, cloaks and Harry-Potter robes. The idea behind a lot of this stuff is practicality and equality […]
It doesn’t take a lot to stress me out. I have lots of free time in which to meander towards my dream livelihoods, which means I have lots of time to stress out. Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays I am at home all day, supposedly working away at fun stuff like a happy bean, but if […]
One of my colleages at work is a very spiritual Brahma Kumari. I’ve always been interested in asking her more about what she believes in, but keeping my spiritual interests on the low and the fact that I find her relentlessly chipper attitude a bit annoying sometimes, I have not. However, the other day we […]
I would be the first to tell you I am not much of a witchy witch. I have this crazy notion that all the other proper witches in the world are all sitting in moonbeams on hilltops mixing incence, or casting spells for world peace or making tasty magical soups. They all do full moon […]
