Serving Up Witchcraft & Magick at the Young Crones Cafe

The available Light Energy has gradually been increasing since its “return” at Winter Solstice, However, we on The Path have learned over the years is that between the start of the upcoming Times of Beltane and Summer Solstice it feels like the Light Energy is increasing exponentially around us.

The Vernal Equinox is March 19th this year. This is one of those dates like the Autumnal Equinox and the Solstices whose date moves around a little bit each year.

Because where we live and practice, we have been inundated with snow and cold over the last week to ten days, it seemed like a great idea to give you an extra bonus Quick Spell to try if you want.

The Crone & Sage sit down and talk about how The Path Tradition has come to use the words Air & Smoke interchangeably when discussing that particular Element.
