Take a Moment

When I first began writing this blog, I had such grand plans. My first thought was, “I’m going to write five blogs a week with themed days, and it’s going to be great!” The reality was that while, one day, this may be possible, with everything going on, it wasn’t sustainable. At least, though, IContinue reading “Take a Moment”

Casting a Circle

Witches are endowed with the knowledge that universal energies can be manipulated or worked with in an effort to affect change or transformation. Not only are we able to use our own energies, directed through intention, to work spells and rituals, we are able to tap into the unlimited energies around us. However, not allContinue reading “Casting a Circle”

Which Witch: Exploring the Different Types of Witches

Being asked what type of witch you are is fairly common within the magical community. For some, the answer comes easily. Others may not know yet and are still in the process of finding out for sure where they feel like they fit. Then there are those who aren’t sure how to answer the questionContinue reading “Which Witch: Exploring the Different Types of Witches”

Imposter Witch

Think back to when you first decided to fully embrace the witch in you. How did you feel? If you’re like me, you had a profound sense that you could achieve anything you set your mind to. It was almost as if I put in a cheat code on life and things suddenly seemed soContinue reading “Imposter Witch”

Nightmares and Dreams

Telling your friends or family members that you are a witch or at least influenced by a spiritual bent can come with unintended outcomes. For example, I’ve become something of the go-to person for dream or nightmare interpretation. Even people I have not seen since March have texted me to tell me that they orContinue reading “Nightmares and Dreams”

What Do You Call a Male Witch?

As a Millennial, watching internet culture evolve and grow has been one of the more interesting and exciting aspects of our lifetime. We’re old enough that we can remember corded phones and the dial-up screeching of our AOL internet and yet young enough that we know our way around computers and smart phones. In someContinue reading “What Do You Call a Male Witch?”

We’re Only Human

It’s hard describing how empowered you feel when you first embrace the witch in you. It’s almost like you know you can accomplish or achieve anything you set your mind to. Suddenly, there’s a world of possibility and nothing is standing in your way. You become aware of the potential inside of you and theContinue reading “We’re Only Human”

What is a Book of Shadows?

It sounds pretty epic, doesn’t it? Like a tome of ancient wisdom passed down from Merlin himself or a quest item in the sprawling RPG you’ve poured hundreds of hours into (looking at you Skyrim and Dragon Age: Inquisition). If you’ve seen Charmed, the Book of Shadows the Halliwell sisters consult in every episode onlyContinue reading “What is a Book of Shadows?”

Pagan or Wiccan: What’s the Difference?

One of the things I love most about the spiritual community is the diversity within it. I have had the honor and pleasure of meeting so many amazing people, all from different walks of life, united in mutual respect for one another, appreciative of our similarities, but grateful for our uniqueness as well. Because weContinue reading “Pagan or Wiccan: What’s the Difference?”

Spells and Their Risks

My grandmother called me fat last night. It’s nothing new. My whole life (even before I was overweight), she’s had this obsession with size and weight. I never quite understood the fixation, but when I was younger, it understandably would hurt to hear it. Now that I’m older… well… It still hurts. Especially since I’veContinue reading “Spells and Their Risks”
