Samhain Season arrives! So we enter Veil Tide

Katie got me the rose potion when she came to see me after baby grl was born. It was so touchingly warm and sentimental without being weepy or too much. The mild, loving thoughtful ways she showed her love and caretaking for me, the initiation. So generous and warm and soft and laughy. Just right….

Dark moon to Lunar Samhain, blessed be~

We spent the Equinox moon in a tiny cabin on the top of a mountain in Deep Creek because it felt like the kind of trip we could easily bring the baby. It is the second time this year that on a Sabbat we were away in the woods, ready to play. Since, the weather…

Like wheels on the peninsula road

So much more to go

Dark Moon to Summer Solstice

Fireflies sparking up the edges of the inky night…honeysuckle intoxicants ringing green around the vine…ahhhh dear loves, must be Summa Time That’s right, tomorrow’s New Moon cycle brings about Litha, or the Summer Solstice, which also means today and this week so far overall, we’re in and have been in that deep stronghold of forced…

Week of wild roses

In the morning on the front porch in full white light of the sun I thought about patience and talked to the Mystery a long while. Sorta felt my worries burn off. Drank nettle tea because I had too much oatstraw this week. I studied Jesus the year I was 30 for a whole year,…
