Can you Feel the Seed of Light?

Can you Feel the Seed of Light? December 6th, 2014 Happy Full Moon! In just 2 short weeks we arrive at the Winter Solstice, the longest, darkest night of the year (and it’s right around the New Moon this year, so it will be especially dark!). On this deep, dark night, we light our candles and warm ourselves by the fire with our loved ones. We have made it through the growing darkness. It is time to rejoice and make merry, for the light is returning! We celebrate the rebirth of the Sun (aka the “son’). From the Winter Solstice forward, the sun’s light grows stronger and the days begin to […]

Exhale. The Dark Goddess has Arrived

Exhale. The Dark Goddess has Arrived New Moon, November 22nd, 2014 Exhale. It has been an intense moon! If you are feeling the waves and ripples of big emotions, you are not alone. Winter has arrived here in the Northern Hemisphere, and with it comes the Dark Goddess in all Her Magnificence. She is the exhale, the surrender, the cleanse, the liberation. When we incarnate we pass through the threshold of birth. We inhale our first breath. She is with us – the Goddess in her aspect as Creation. When we dis-incarnate we pass through the threshold of death. We exhale our final breath. She is with us, the Goddess as […]

Can you hang with the trickster?

Can you hang with the trickster? Full Moon, November 6th, 2014 Greetings sweet sisters ~ We received a very powerful lesson last weekend at our Medicine Path of the Priestess Samhain Women’s Retreat. The lesson came from the trickster, known in Native American lore as Coyote, and in Yoruban traditions as Exu. Although he sometimes gets a very bad wrap, the trickster is simply the guardian of our soul’s evolution. He keeps us on our toes, enforcing the lessons that we came here to learn. We call him the trickster because he places obstacles in our path, causing us to trip and fall over and over again. He makes sure we do […]

The Gifts of our Ancestors – Samhain New Moon October 23rd, 2014 Hello dear ones ~ Today is the New Moon, in Scorpio, with a Solar Eclipse. I just re-read my words last year at this time: “Witchy Wisdom for the Samhain New Moon,” and realized that 13 moons ago we were experiencing a Solar Eclipse on this very New Moon in Scorpio as well. We have journeyed around the spiral yet again dear friends. We are the same, and yet we are so different. It is the time of Samhain, the ancient celebration of our ancestors. And in the Celtic tradition we have arrived at the New Year. It is […]

Mother Earth, the Crone & the Angels

Mother Earth, the Crone & the Angels Full Moon, October 8th, 2014 Hello dear ones ~ A power dream came to me recently – the kind of dream that you know has deep meaning and significance. I dreamed that the Earth was rising and expanding. As the thick mass rapidly inflated we had to scramble up and out in order to not be suffocated and consumed. I made it, but many did not. Those of us who survived were refugees in a world above. As I realized what I had lost, a wail began to well up from the deepest place in my being I had ever known. As it rose […]

Welcome to the Dark Half of the Year!

Welcome to the Dark Half of the Year! New Moon, September 24th, 2014 Greetings dear sisters ~ We have just passed through the portal of the Autumn Equinox, the day of absolute balance between day and night, light and dark. And now, here in the Northern Hemisphere, the darkness grows with each passing day. Many of us shudder at the thought of the dark, cold winter that approaches, and we long for tropical getaways. Yup. I am certainly guilty as charged! So I have to ask: What is it about the darkness that we resist so much? As the leaves change color and fall to the ground, the life-force of the […]

We Are The Rainbow Tribe

White Buffalo Calf Woman brought the Peace Pipe to the tribal nations. She spoke of a time of healing and Unity when All Nations of the Medicine Wheel would be reunited in respect – the black, red, yellow and white in harmony – and the building of the Rainbow Bridge which is an inclusive symbol of All people in beauty and equality.

In the book The Quest, by Tom Brown […]

What is your sacred service?

What is Your Sacred Service? New Moon, August 25th, 2014 Dear sisters ~ In the spirit of this sweet New Moon, I want to plant a seed in your heart. Sacred Service. As women, many of us have struggled in relationship to giving and receiving. We may give too much in ways that are unhealthy. We may feel unworthy to receive what we truly desire. We may feel so wounded in this area that we have shut down our capacity to give and/or receive with love. We protect ourselves within a confined box of pale and tasteless security. I know that I have been there. But I also know that giving […]

Capricorn Full Moon with Cancer Sun Welcome Dear Hearts as we are truly in the Mysteries of the Moon! The astrological sign of Cancer rests at home in the light of the Moon energy and here She comes into Fullness! The depth of the waters we have been traversing is all influenced by her methodical in and out, ebb and flow, as well as, Her whimsical light dancing. She is tugging at our very insides… literally as the waters within are danced by Her tidal pull. At the same time, the light shimmering in and out of shadow, tantalizes us to look beneath the surface, to contemplate who we are. If […]
