At the Nine Fold Festival last year, I had the pleasure of presenting my lecture “Cult of the Sacred Springs and Holy Wells”. After the class I spoke with Gaia Woolf-Nightingall. She excitedly told me a story about how many years before she had found a well. I knew that this story was full of magic and synchronicity and when I decided to start interviewing other Well Maiden and Water Priestess’, I knew that I wanted to interview Gaia and... Read more
When it comes to Paganism and Witchcraft there seem to be many different view points on how to interact with Gods and Spirits. For many, they focus on forming relationships and pacts with spirits, others focus on worshiping with devotion at the feet of the Gods. Where do YOU fall? Do you worship or do you make pacts? Or do you worship AND make pacts? I personally fall into both categories and have different relationships with different spirits. I worship... Read more
There is no doubt that water has become polluted, endangered and in danger of being destroyed in recent times. Our water ways are polluted with plastic, oil, and chemicals faster than we can clean them.

All over the world Witches are gathering to bless, heal and protect our water ways. The... Read more
At PantheaCon 2017 I had the pleasure of attending a class on The White Spring in Glastonbury UK. It was a wonderful class with vision journeys and stories about the spring.

The vision journeys took us through the sacred landscape and through the candle lit well house full of shrines and sacred... Read more
PantheaCon 2017 I missed blogging last week because I was recovering from PantheaCon 2017. Really long events usually take a lot of energy out of me. You probably don’t know this, but I am a spoonie. I am just really good at hiding it and I ration my spoons like a champ when these types of events come around. Which is why you don’t see me at most of the late night parties. (Though I do swim in from time... Read more
Why Blue Lace Agate is the most powerful Gem Elixir I am working with right now… I wanted to share with you a very powerful Gem Elixir that I am working with. To give just a basic overview, Gem Elixirs are when you combine water and the power of gem stones together to create a potent elixir. By adding the gem to the water, the water absorbs the energy of the crystal and then in turn, amplifies it. Gem elixirs... Read more
Going beyond the ninth wave was said to be a way to access the Otherworld. In addition water collected from beyond the ninth wave was said to possess magical properties. You can work with water from beyond the ninth wave in both a symbolic and literal way. Several months ago I was asked a question about the ninth wave; what it was, what it meant and how to work with it through magic. Luckily I had a blog post already... Read more
Here I took myself on a vision journey across the water and into the other world. I first visited Brigid and saw her surrounded by all the flames lit in her honor today, thousands of white dripping candles and 4 arm crosses. Read more
Water can be worked with in a variety of ways either physically with sacred vessels, and tools or spiritually by connecting with water spirits and deity.

Rain water and snow can be collected, stored and saved. Rain water can be... Read more
Here are a few ideas on how to use snow, ice and winter weather in your own magic practice. You can start very simple by working with Sigils. Using snow to write sigils is a great use of winter water magic. Simply use your finger to indent the snow with your sigil or power symbol.
