View from The Tower
A piece I wrote sometime ago as I was just beginning my study on tarot cards, was reminded of the theme yesterday and went hunting. So many witches will groan over The Tower and it’s assumed meaning, but I’m one of those who views it as a good card, a card indicating growth through hardship:…

Beautiful Bountiful Blessings
There have been mentions of blessings around my site from day one, but I didn’t actually have a home for them or explain what they are…. Essentially mini spells, or affirmations that I wanted to keep going beyond 1-2 lines. So I’ve moved them under the affirmations umbrella and will be posting a set regularly!…

Forgotten Space
Incredibly loosely based on a true story just like most of my writings…. I’m just gonna stop saying that. I plan to use some of these tales to establish some backstory/world-building type stuff for another project I’m working on. I’ll eventually have a clear indicator for “canon” tales, but for now, this one takes place…

“Find your own path! Don’t just blindly follow the one laid out in front of you.” — Anna James There are so many different schools, traditions and so called “paths” within Witchcraft that it feels impossible for one person to fully explore them all. Which is why I believe it is best to instead explore…

Witchy 101: Fashion
“Fashion is like eating; You shouldn’t stick to the same menu.” – Kenzo Takada Forgive me if I let my trans femme show a little too hard here, but this is a fun topic for me. As always, no right or wrong way to be fabul- magical, but I think it’s worth talking a little…

Witchy 101: Wands, athames, chalices and more
“The intentions of a tool are what it does. A hammer intends to strike, a vise intends to hold fast, a lever intends to lift. They are what it is made for. But sometimes a tool may have other uses that you don’t know. Sometimes in doing what you intend, you also do what the…
