UPDATED + A NEW LOOK TO THE BLOG! The Mad Sorceress Grimoires
A Virtual Grimoire Written from a Chronic-Illness and Trauma-informed Perspective. Restoration Magic for Creatives and Magicians.
Your Fairy of the Fountain on your unique Hero's Quest to Healing.
Hi, everyone! My name is Sam, and I have been diagnosed with Poly-Cystic Ovarian Syndrome since 2014, and Adenomyosis since 2018. I enrolled in a natural medicine in school in 2022 where I began learning about herbal medicine, healing diets, and quantum botanicals. I am a writer + blogger, and on my website, I journal about reclaiming personal power and healing through the help of inner-alchemy, astrology, synergetic herbs, the occult, medical astrology, Astro-nutrition, archaic religions, and esotericism.
What is The Mad Sorceress Grimoires?
A Grimoire is a book with spells and incantations written in it. Grimoire comes from the Old French “grammaire”, which referred to all books that were written in Latin at the time. “Grammaire” comes from the Greek “grammatikos”.
This blog is meant to be a collection of works. Here is the breakdown of the blog:
Chapter 01: Inner-Sorcery
In this chapter, I share my experience with healing, self-care, ritual, and art from the perspective of someone with chronic-pain, stress, and anxiety. If you want to know more, click on the link above to take you to the chapter.
Chapter 02: Womb/PCOS-Alchemy
This part of the blog is dedicated to leaning into a magical life from the perspective of someone who endures c-PTSD and chronic-illnesses. I will mention this a million times throughout this blog: I am not a licensed professional. I was diagnosed with PCOS in 2013, and Adenomyosis in 2017. I am culling from lived experiences, and sharing that on this blog. Do not take my advice over the advice of licensed professionals who work with you directly.

Chapter 03: Celestial Lessons
This is where I write about how certain Astrological Archetypes have manifested for me in my real life. I enjoy exploring astrology, and I use it as a means to enhance my life by bringing my joy. Whether by natal or transit, I take a deep dive on the lessons that I’ve learned. Astrology is not meant to replace therapy from licensed professionals.

Chapter 04: Bleak + Brooding Reveries
I have recently opened my poetry blog back up! I have been inspired by automatic writing my entire life. A lot of my words come from hypnagogic experiences, meditative states, or automatic writing sessions. If you want to know more, click on the link above to take you to the chapter.
Chapter 05: The Holographic Herbal
Coming soon! As of July 2022, I became a student of Quantum Botanicals and Natural Medicine. During these modules, I experiment with certain herbs. I write about my experience with them. I enjoy learning about their chemical constituents, folk lore, history, and - OF COURSE - I want to know what the occultists had to say about them. This chapter merges Medical Astrology, Astro-Nutrition, Astro-Herbalism, Color, archaic religions, and more. Stay tuned. If you want to know more, click on the link above to take you to the chapter.
Never diagnose yourself without speaking to a medical professional. I am not a certified Medical Astrologer. Regardless, astrology is not meant to take the place of Health Care from licensed professionals. Astrology is meant for entertainment purposes only. Please read my Terms & Conditions for more.
