So it has been awhile. I wanted to give a quick update. As some of you know I had a Patreon account for a bit. I have reactivated it and will be blogging over there. If you would like to come support me, that would be great and I appreciate it. I am also on InstaGram and Tiktok still. Please click the links and give me a follow! I’ve also dusted off my vlogging channel and will be back on Youtube. Come and give me a subscribe over there for witchy videos. I will be putting this blog on private and moving on from it. I have shared a lot of things over the years, and was forced to get a little m ..read more

Friday night my mother called me to let me know my Grans was sick again. Sunday we got another call to let me know she had passed away. I was very close to my grandma. It is hard to know she has passed onto wherever she has gone. It is also hard to know I can’t go home to be there with my family in this time. I am the caretaker, and I know my mom and sister are a mess and I can’t help. The funeral will be livestreamed so I will at least get to see that and get some closure, but that will also be hard. I have written several things about my grans on facebook, my tributes to the amazing woman sh ..read more

It has been a busy few weeks. First up: I joined TikTok out of boredom. And within a week had over 1000 followers. So that is cool. It also made me laugh because one of my videos had 20k views and it really is just a mom video essentially saying “Hey guys, there might be a storm, take your rain boots” I guess people like the down to earth stuff as much as they like the aesthetic vids. I’ve also had a few other videos hit the 10K view mark, and others in the thousands. It is crazy to think about how many people might view something you made. Some of the content is amazing, some of it hilarious ..read more

So we’re 9 weeks into our Stay at Home. For the most part it has gone well for me. I have settled into working from home and am adjusting to not getting out much. I miss people, but at the same time I am able to get so much more done in a day when I don’t have a 2 hour commute. I’ve been taking care of myself and my health. I’ve been getting back into spiritual habits. I’ve been completing projects that have been sitting for some time. I am doing what I can to make the best of it. The full moon went well. I framed and hung my print of Brigid that I had bought last year. (You can get your own a ..read more

Here we are and it is apparently almost Beltane. How did that happen? Jan – March took 11 million years and April just flashed by us. I know we’re all going a bit stir crazy, but at least the weather is finally starting to be nice here. It helps to be able to get out in the yard and enjoy the sunshine. Yesterday the little dude and I lay in the grass and watched the clouds. We discussed what they all looked like, and how quickly they changed shape. It was peaceful. I’m always surprised when he is content to lay still and do a quiet activity. Usually it is all go go go with him. This pandemic h ..read more

Here we are, living through interesting times. Back in February, when the CDC first began to warn us about the COVID-19, I took stock of what we had. We went out and replenished anything that was low, and grabbed a few extra supplies. Just in case. My husband sometimes teases me about my prepping mentality, but I spent my whole life in an earthquake zone. You had to know you had enough stuff to get you through being trapped in your house. Right as our Spring Break started at work we were told we would be working remotely for 2 weeks. A few days later we closed our campus until May 15th. I am v ..read more

Imbolc eve was a quiet night. I’ve been struggling with coming up with traditions that I can share with my toddler for all the holidays. I want him to have an understanding of what mommy does, but also have the freedom to decide his own way. Every so often I feel like I figure out something that is simple enough for me to include him in part of it, but then be able to build off of it for my own practice. Generally I leave out braided ribbons for Brighid to bless on Imbolc and we might make some Irish soda bread or something. This year I decided to do something a bit different. I pulled out one ..read more

Happy Monday! I had a busy weekend and got in some socializing time. This helped my mood, but it means I didn’t get anything done this weekend. There is always a trade-off. Saturday I ran a simple and short Samhain ritual for a few friends. I’m going to share it here in case you need some ideas for own rituals. I was planning to have non-pagans there so it is very short, but in the end it was only myself and other witches so I guess I could have gone a bit deeper. Use it or customize it as you wish.   Simple Samhain ritual Altar set up – Spirit candle, cauldron with water, salt dish, lighter ..read more

Fall is here and Samhain vibes are high. The weather has been all over the place, but the leaves look beautiful. I’ve been struggling a bit, my depression tried to sneak in a few weeks ago when I was super exhausted and fighting off a cold. Most people know I am honest about everything. I figure that is the best way to be, but sometimes that freaks people out. Society doesn’t know how to handle someone who is honest about things other then the good stuff. Mental health day was last week. People are quick to post a meme about supporting it, but then get weird when people share their struggles ..read more

I’ve been stepping outside my comfort zone. I’ve been allowing my filters and shields to drop. I’ve tapped back into parts of me that haven’t been allowed out in several years. It is amazing and at the same time difficult. People in general don’t like to change their routines. We are creatures of habit. And when I allow the full force of my personality to shine through, it can be overwhelming for some. Other people love it and then feed off of it in their own ways. The struggle comes when I have to decide if I listen when other people try to tell me to tone it down or if I continue to just be ..read more
