Imbolc has arrived! Even if you’re buried under snow right now, spring is undoubtedly working its magic underground. This is a perfect time to tend to the corners in your life that have gotten out of hand over the winter. Save the big house cleansing for spring, in this moment, it’s the smaller spaces that call for your attention. Perhaps you have a closet that desperately needs organizing, a desk overflowing with papers, an altar gathering dust, or a pile of craft supplies threatening to tak...
The Year of the Snake is coming to a close. This is the perfect time to shed that outgrown skin. We must let go of the old, heavy energy holding us back if we’re going to meet the fast-moving energy that the Year of the Horse is bound to bring. One of the greatest drains on our energy comes from comparing ourselves to others. Every time we measure our worth against someone else, we snuff out our own light. It’s time to stop worrying about what they’re doing and start taking an interest in you...
When the new year rolls around, many people are quick to set goals and make resolutions. Unfortunately, this is often a distraction from the deeper work that we all have to do. There’s usually something that we’re hiding behind, something that we don’t want to look at, because we know that work will be hard… really hard. We’d rather focus on the shiny external work, rather than excavating the thing that’s really keeping us stuck. But what if life forces us to look at it? Isn’t it better to ch...
Many of us were relieved to leave the heavy energy of 2025 in the rearview mirror. The desire to return to the "good old days" was experienced by more than a few people. But is a return to the past likely for 2026? No one knows what this next cycle will bring, but there's astrological indication that we may be looking toward sweeping change. As Neptune and Saturn move into Aries, we have the potential for massive shifts on a societal level; long held systems may begin to dissolve. So what do ...
Happy New Year! 2026 is officially here! Many people dive into the new year with reckless abandon hoping to meet all of their elusive life goals. This often leads to self-loathing when we fail to meet the unrealistic expectation we’ve hastily set for ourselves. But what if this year we take a gentler approach? Rather than jumping in with both feet, instead we tiptoe into the next calendar year with an intentional, well-laid plan. Instead of rushing, what if we paused, considered, and took our...
After weeks of buildup and anticipation, Christmas and Yule have now passed. Whether your holiday was joyous or challenging, you’ll likely be experiencing a let-down after the outpouring of holiday energy. There’s a great temptation to dive headfirst into the new year without taking time to pause… but pause we must. Nature shows us that January is not the time to push and bloom, it’s the time to rest and plan. Before taking action, follow nature’s lead and lay dormant for a little while. Allo...
Happy Winter Solstice! This is a time for rebirth, renewal, and new beginnings. It’s also a time to receive, which is something that many of us struggle to do. Do you freely accept the generosity of others or does it make you feel vulnerable? Do you keep a tally of these “transactions” in your mind so that you can quickly repay the giver? Maybe you fear that when it really counts, others will let you down. What if this Yule, you learned to graciously and lovingly accept the kindness and love ...
Do you ever find yourself fighting against the moment? Sometimes the season we’re in is not the one we would choose for ourselves. This can be especially difficult during the holidays, a time when we just want things to feel easy and merry. It’s tempting to create an illusion, rather than looking at the moment for what it truly is. But what if laying bare the truth will actually set us free? Instead of wasting energy on conjuring a false reality this holiday, perhaps we can simply let it be… ...
December is here! A time for holidays and merriment and… exhaustion? Even when we commit to a simple holiday season, it’s easy to get run down and sluggish from the additional activities, heavy foods, and seasonal colds. But there are definitely things we can do to prioritize our well-being so that we can enter the holiday with vigor. Getting proper sleep, nourishment, fresh air, rest, and an extra dose of fermented foods, will help us fortify our systems this season. Join me in a new locatio...
The holiday season is officially in full swing! This is the time of year when traditions really take center stage. But before embarking on the usual holidays customs, consider if these rituals still align with who you are today. Do holiday traditions bring you comfort and joy? Or are there traditions that feel restrictive and oppressive? What are you eager to carry forward and what would you rather leave in the past? This season, embrace the traditions that feed your holiday spirit, and give ...
How do you feel about the gift-giving part of the holidays? Do you jump at the chance to shower your loved ones with presents? Or does the mere thought of holiday shopping leave you feeling exhausted? Most of us have some feelings around the consumer-driven aspect of the holiday season. So before pulling out your wallet, reflect on how gift-giving feels in your body. From this place, you’ll be much better equipped to find giving practices that align best for you. Let this be the year where yo...
It feels like just a moment ago that we were ushering in Samhain, and now Christmas and Yule are a mere 6 weeks away. For some, this time of year is steeped in excitement and gratitude, for others it’s cloaked with stress and anxiety. What if we could shape our holiday narrative by acknowledging what really matters to us this season? Rather than getting caught up in the traditions and expectations of years passed, what if we first asked ourselves, “What has this past year been like for me?”. ...
November is bringing some big energy to the table! The supermoon on the 5th is quickly followed by Mercury stationed retrograde, which can cause some sticky communication and logistical upsets. When these cosmic shifts occur on top of other daily challenges, we can find ourselves feeling strained and overwhelmed. In these moments, we’d be wise to surrender, rather than choosing to push and fight until we meet our breaking point. There’s no shame in slowing down or asking for help, but first w...
How did the ancient Celts celebrate Samhain? Are our theories sound or was the truth lost to history? We may never know exactly how this Sabbat looked long ago, but we can be relatively certain that it was an end of summer celebration and a time to usher in the dark half of the year. Samhain reminds us that even in the darkness and uncertainty of winter, we have the ability to make merry! We can put on costumes, dance around a bonfire, and feast! We can stare down our fear and stand boldly in...
As the energy of Samhain builds, nature provides a beautiful illustration of transformation in action. What begins with a riotous display of color, quickly turns into a demonstration of letting go. Life and growth and death and decay live side by side. We are born for change, yet we resist the transformation. What old stories are you playing on repeat? What messages do you believe that no longer serve you and your expansion? Samhain is a time to bravely look at these stories and transform the...
Who do you belong to? The answer to this question deeply impacts the way you show up in the world. Are you living a life that’s authentic to you or are you contorting yourself to fit the shape of someone else’s vision? To be fully sovereign means to belong to oneself. In order to live from this place we must be willing to look at the “whole” of ourselves; the light and the shadow. When we bravely look at the things we’d prefer not to see, we start the journey toward spiritual integration. As ...
Have you ever given thought to the beauty rituals you participate in? Are these daily practices enjoyable to you? Or are they societal expectations that you’ve simply accepted as part of your life? What if we could define beauty for ourselves? To some, glamour magic involves changing your appearance so that others perceive you more favorably. However, glamour magic can also be used as a means to deepen your personal expression and how you see yourself. With a brisk walk, some steam, a little ...
October is here! The leaves are changing, the air is getting crisp, and our homes are beckoning us back inside. Autumn is the perfect time to engage in a little cottage magic! A cottage witch is someone who incorporates magic and spiritual meaning into their home; they want to make their space feel safe, sacred, and comforting. In order to do this, we must connect with the Spirit of our home. This doesn’t require fancy tools or lots of money, your presence is all that’s needed to practice thi...
As the air starts to cool, it's tempting to pile on the layers and forget that we live in a body for a while. Without the pressure of donning a swimsuit, many of us disconnect from our bodies to avoid (the sometimes complex) relationship we have with our physical form. But what if the colder months actually offer an opportunity to nurture a new relationship with the skin we're in? Perhaps we can use this time to explore what we, as individuals, want from our bodies away from the gaze of other...
The air is getting cooler, the days are getting shorter, autumn is officially upon us! Mabon, also knows as the Autumn Equinox, is a time to prepare for the darker months to come. With a little intentional planning, the dark half of the year can be a time of thriving rather than simply enduring. What will this season look like for you? Is there healing work that deserves your attention? Maybe a creative project or a learning pursuit is beckoning? After the fall decor has been hung, take some ...
