There need to be spaces for women to heal and learn not just about themselves but about the land that is under us. Women need self-sustainable skills and the ability to trust the decisions they make.Ā
I work as a Community Manager at a senior apartment complex and it is incredibly sweet how I have been adopted by 122 grandmaās and grandpaās. They bring me sweets and drinks, a lady came in yesterday to ask us to put a hummingbird feeder up and left me an apple and a clementine, I guess as a trade? I have a headache today and so have been operating with my light off which has prompted every resident to ask if thereās a problem with the building. When they find out its just my broken brain they fall over themselves to take care of me.Ā
A reframe from a spirit thatās helping me out today:Ā
If you go to a burger joint and try to order a pizza, no matter how much you want a pizza, it aināt gonna happen.Ā
If you go to a person (or several) whoāve never been empathetic, reasonably selfless, or a good listener, and ask for them to empathize, consider you, and listen - no matter how much you want it, itās not going to happen.Ā
Railing about how they wonāt give you the love and affection you want is about as silly as trying to get a pizza from a burger joint.Ā
And if youāve got no pizza joints nearby, you gotta learn to make your own if you want it that bad. Might not be the same thing but thems the breaks.Ā
If you canāt get empathy and love from those around you, you gotta get really good at giving it to yourself. Might not feel the same but thems the breaks.Ā
Becoming Good With Magic: Step 1
Most people practice magic for a while before they even start to care about really developing a solid understanding of it. That's fine. But when you decide you really want to be good at it, you need to understand.
Start by asking yourself:
What is magic? Define it.
How does magic work? Figure out where you think magic comes from, what you have to do to use it, and the role of tools.
What can magic do and not do? You need to know both.
These are the first fundamental questions that you need for mastery.
Now that Iām not at the grocery store, Iāll answer the questions so that you have some examples!
What is magic?Ā I believe that magic is the intuitive manipulation of natural energies to achieve a predetermined result.Ā
How does magic work? How much time do you have! Itās a lot like light hitting a prism. Light (energy) enters the prism (witch) which bends the light (working) and produces a visible rainbow (magic). There are different ways of pulling that energy into yourself (and different types of energy) as well as different ways of working that energy, which all produce different types of magic. But simply, I believe we are the catalyst. We also have the ability to use other catalysts, like sigils or poppets.
What can magic do and not do? I believe that magic is bound by natural law. It cannot do anything that is against nature. Thatās why transfiguration doesnāt work - there is no natural mechanism for turning one thing into something else unrelated. As we say in my practice, you canāt turn a boar into a bear. But magic can do anything permissible in the natural world. That doesnāt mean in individual practitioner is capable of it, but magic isnāt bound by the individual.Ā
It may sound silly, but a lot of practitioners really donāt spend much time on these kinds of questions. Learning magic is a lot like learning English as your first language in an American school: youāre taught the rules, but youāre not really taught why those rules are there or why theyāre important. You end up with usable information, but you arenāt given the tools to interpret that information and build off of it.
As another example, does the average witch know why the moon is so important in witchcraft? Iāll give you a hint: What is moonlight?Ā
the path of trying to find the balance between your personal life, work, obligations, personal relationships, healthy outlets, and then a dutiful worshiper is hard for a reason.Ā
The ancient Greeks had not to worry about as much nonsense as we do. Their society was designed around worship. Do not worry or punish yourself over not being able to celebrate every single festival, or every single moon cycle or even have the mental capability to give a full chested prayer every day.Ā
the world we are in is not designed for the beauty we are trying to recapture, but our faith and resilience in that, still finding time to whisper the gods name in joy and sorrow and pleading, that is enough to stand the time. And the Gods know it too.

I want this so badly
A gardeners prayer
I should be preparing for the chaos that will ensue,
Spring has sprung, thereās so much that is new.
I should be working or at least pretending to,
Yet still I sit here with only thoughts of you.
I will
Go outside,Ā
Since you demand it so.
And while I stroll I see women being who they are bravely.
You cannot shame us,
Tame us,
Or push us to the shadows.
You can seek to change the meaning of the word woman,
But you will never be able to change the fact that I was born one.
You can seek to dismantle our spaces
But you will never be able to change my desire to build on.
Wonāt you join me outside?
Come off of anon and ask your question.
Mother May I
Spend my years in your embrace.
Live a life filled with chase.
Build for women a sacred place.
Be the one to open gates.
For you are the spark of my desire.
And my feet go where you require.
Forever I will carry your fire.
It is true I cannot deny Her.
Proud to be a same sex attracted woman, free in her own skin and spreading love for women ā¤ļø
Goddess
The world has changed much since women first perceived of your presence.
Ā And yet, when I look up at the moon as my foremothers did I feel reverence.
From spark to the flame,
Your rites we will reclaim.Ā
Inanna, Athena, Hekate, Cerridwen.Ā Ā
Goddess, Mother, please take us in.
Alright ladies, who wants to come live on some land in Washington so I can get stuff done?
Iām listening š
My wife and I are looking for land now with the goal to purchase in a year but not more than 2. There will be room for other women to come and live as well as space to raise animals and grow our own food. So I wasnāt fully joking...
Any areas in mind? Because at this point youāve got me, my wife, my sister, and @soulstead-sanctuary and her wife up here doing goddess work š so like⦠itās somethin to chat about.
Okanogan or Ferry county unless other women would want to go in on land together and get something in Whatcom or something like that.Ā
