It may be common to believe that deities and other spirits don’t get personal, but in my experience that belief is simply not true. Read more
I don’t write often about Sabbats because I don’t really celebrate them as is common. I don’t follow a standard Wheel of the Year. And I could go the rest of my life without hearing about how Easter was originally a pagan festival called Ostara (no it’s not) or how Christmas was originally Yule (no it’s not). Christians celebrate their own holidays and the symbols of their holidays have their own meanings. This is regardless of how cultures merged over... Read more
*This Post Contains Spoilers* I’ve loved everything that The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina has had to offer so far in terms of story and content, but I don’t love every character. In fact, out of all of the characters in the show I dislike Sabrina and Harvey the most. Sabrina drives me nuts with her thoughtless and selfish behavior.

There’s no doubt that certain ways of thinking are unhelpful and can make us miserable. Feeding thought energy into the worst case scenarios, excessive worry, panic, and so on are difficult to live with and are an energy suck. When it comes to magickal workings, it’s important to believe in what you’re doing. But what about all the witches with anxiety and anxiety disorders? What about those who have great difficulty controlling their thoughts? There are many practices we can... Read more
Many witches don’t want there to be any cross-over between their witchcraft practice and mainstream religion. When it comes to working with Saints, though, there’s really no need to be concerned with religious overlap at all. Saints are for everyone. Read more
