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 […]

Can you hang with the trickster?

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

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 […]

Welcome to the Dark Half of the Year!

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 […]

Full Flower Moon & Lunar Beltane

Full Flower Moon & Lunar Beltane

Full Flower Moon Feasting on the Fruits of Beltane! “Rise women! Rise sacred feminine! I am not afraid. I welcome you. I am at your service.“ – the Divine Masculine The healing of the masculine and the feminine is the work of our time.  Last weekend, we embarked on our Medicine Path of the Priestess Women’s Beltane Retreat fully aware of the enormity of our undertaking. We knew the intentions we were working with would stir us deeply. As women, we have immense trauma from our experience with men, both from this lifetime, and in our collective memory of thousands of years of patriarchal persecution. As a community of women, we […]

The Goddess and Her Consort

RAPTURE – The Goddess and Her Consort – On this deep dark moon, there are whispers of excitement all around. The flowers dance in anticipation. The green shoots rise up, alert and expectant. The water bubbles and the faeries delight in the joy of what is to come. It is Beltane. It is the celebration of Life. The Goddess opens to Her Consort. The fertile Earth jubilantly receives the warmth of the Sun. The Divine Feminine joins together with the Divine Masculine in the Spirit of Creation, and consciousness is born. It is this union that creates the magic of new life. It is this alchemical union that ensures the growth […]

New Moon with Aphrodite - Radical Self Care

New Moon with Aphrodite – Radical Self Care Sisters ~ It is the New Moon and Aphrodite’s time has come… Born of sea foam from the ocean she rises – beautiful, radiant – Goddess of love, pleasure and fertility. She holds a mirror in her hand, gazing lovingly at her own reflection. She teaches us how to see ourselves through the lens of the divine feminine – loving every part of ourselves, especially our flaws and imperfections. Aphrodite’s message is one of radical self care. We must learn to love ourselves fully – our shadows and our light. When we see our imperfections as a integral part of our beauty we […]

Full Moon of the Equinox + World Water Day

Sacred Flow of the Waters…Let Go Full Moon of the Equinox Dear ones ~ This glorious Full Moon heralds the Spring Equinox and World Water Day (March 22nd). And She has guided me into an intense wave of Purification and Spring Cleaning. “Sacred flow of the waters…let go. Weaving our Love. Surrender, release, purify, go deep, Weaving our Love.” I find myself clearing out the cobwebs of the corners of my home and heart. As I gather bags of “stuff” to give away, I am also clearing away the energetic blocks and residue from my being – the last vestiges of Winter – creating SPACE for the Springtime flow. At our […]

Full Snow Moon on this Day of Love

Full Snow Moon on this Day of Love Dearest Sisters ~ Welcome to the heart-warming Full Snow Moon in Leo on this Day of Love. Yum! As we journey into our celebration of Valentine’s Day, my prayer is that we each remember the Beloved within. May we give ourselves the love that we most wish to receive.  May we fill so completely with the love of the Goddess that we then overflow in abundant love offerings to our community and to all beings. Sisters, this is the work – to love ourselves unconditionally no matter what, and let that ripple out into the world. This past New Moon, the Fire Goddess […]

Full Snow Moon in Leo

Full Snow Moon in Leo Welcome to the heart-warming Full Snow Moon in Leo.  Obviously most of us are still undercovers with seemingly infinite layers of white surrounding us.  Brigid is still beneath the surface reaching her tiny fingers forth… But for at least this moment, our Lion-Hearted companion will warm us from the inside out bringing warmth to hearts and hearth. We have crossed the threshold of the New Year once again as the Wood Horse gallops in and the fire replaces the water at the center of the altar… but … it’s not so clear.  This new year is marked by an intense shift of energies and a significant […]
