Daughters of Eve
My mother was a crocheting wizard. She was a master, and she did most of it intuitively. She couldn’t read patterns and instead taught herself through practice, vision and skill. Read more

As I mourn for the loss of innocent lives today, I think about the senseless violence that has become a part of the history of this nation. I think about the way that we hurt one another and continue to devalue the importance of human life. Read more
My spiritual routine requires a level of empathy towards others and working to understand my own levels of privilege. For the holiday season, we should all be thinking about what we can do for others. It does not require money to do something: a conversation could mean the world to someone that is otherwise forgotten. Read more
My roots are deep into the lands of the South, rich in culture, wrapped in survival and polished with history. The foods of my family represent the stories of struggle that continue to whisper the messages of our lineage. Read more
My hair is kinky. It is frizzy and so unlike what I am used to. I have been close to going natural with my hair for some time now, and yet society always pulls me back. Read more
I’ve been extremely engaged in this entire election cycle- watching the debates, following the stories and commentaries of various pundits, and checking facts so religiously, one would think it was my side gig. I’m excited, today, to see the numbers of friend (and friends of friends) posting that they’ve voted, and expressing their pride in receiving their official election day stickers. (see mine below!) Many people don’t know this about me, but I once ran for public office myself. It... Read more
This election year has brought attention in ways that feel quite different from the past. There is a lot at stake in the next four years within this country. With an upside down economy, out of control unemployment rates and troops in the Middle East, the focus of this election is scattered. In thinking about this election and what it means to me I look at the potential effects from the eyes of an African American, middle class, Pagan Woman.... Read more
I love meditation and trance work. I received this while in meditation with Isis and I’ve been feeling simultaneously grounded and elevated each time I do it. You are welcome to try this as you sit and read it now; you can have someone else read it for you; you can record it and try it on your own, or do something else that works best for you. Please feel free to send me feedback about your experience. Enjoy. Take... Read more
I was inspired tonight to think about the incredible magic of what my single mother meant to me and how that helped me to find the Goddess. My mother had the responsibility of raising a young child, working and often times neglecting her personal needs in order to do so. There were so many times I would see the magnificent vision of mothering from a woman who couldn’t afford health insurance, dental care or clothes for her body. She sacrificed that in order to be...

I am very excited to now be a regular contributor to the Daughters of Eve blog! This experience coincides with my agreement with my Divine Mamas that it was time to take the leap and formally begin doing my work in the world. It has been very easy in these last years to go from class to class, studying this modality and that modality, constantly gathering information but never really looking at what I planned to do with it....
