The season of the Fire Festival of Beltane is upon us, and this episode is pulling together some of my big dreams and sharing them with you all. I lay it all out: the history of Beltane, a modern expression of the celebration in Edinburgh, Scotland, our place on this land and in history, and a prophecy about how we can choose to live. The universe waylaid me (quite dramatically— listen in and I'll tell you all about it) and so here I am sharing this all with you. I believe there is much...

It’s “Life, The Universe, and Everything” Northwoods Witch style: an inspiring soliloquy of beliefs and practices with *most* tangents paying out in the end. None of these thoughts are exclusively mine; I’m inspired by the essays and Insta feeds of great thinkers, activists, and spiritual leaders. But I hope you find some value—some resonance or inspiration—in this expression of belief! What shapes your worldview? Are you ready to hold hands with me and step out of the box? ...

I accepted an invitation to join the launch of Wisdom, a new social audio app which is kind of like a mash-up of Twitch and a radio talk show. I tried it out for a couple of weeks, and while I decided not to pursue it because I wan't getting the engagement I had hoped to, I found the experience super rewarding. Also I made a lot of content just talking to the folks who stayed to listen to me (of whom there were enough to make me feel like at least I accomplished something being th...

The Lake Superior Freethinkers invited me to participate in a panel featuring joke-worthy guests “a monk, an atheist, and a witch” (we did not go into a bar, unfortunately...)I really appreciated the opportunity to reflect deeply on this topic, and I enjoyed presenting on the panel (I was received with comments such as “I’d expected to disagree with you, but found we are on the same page” 🤷🏻‍♀️…Only a few micro aggressions from the old white dude crowd—I get them rarely so always an interesti...
Why All the Altars?

Why All the Altars?

What’s the fuss about altars? Let me tell you! In this episode I experiment with recording-while-parenting and I talk through a few of my favorite ways and reasons to use Altars, a spiritual practice near and dear to my heart. If you’re interested in my “origin story” (referenced a few times) you can read a bit more about it here in a talk I shared with our local Unitarian Universalist congregation back in 2016. It was certainly a different vibe for me to record this while my son roamed ...
I talk through the cycle of cultural appropriation from a white witch’s perspective. “Whiteness” and our lost lineage of relationship with land and community contribute to the spiritual lack that leads to cultural appropriation. I invite you into the journey of rediscovery of lineage, of subversive decolonization, of the necessary work to dismantle white supremacy for individual and communal healing!Resources include :Characteristics of White Supremacy from “Dismantling Racism: a Workboo...
This moment calls for community to gather in and seek our way forward together, aligned with our highest values. This prayer is from my very real daily life to you: we are not alone. ************************************************"The Charge of the Star Goddess” has relatively long lineage in Goddess Tradition; shared first by Doreen Valiente and then re-written by Starhawk. This is how I like to pray it.
