"When you're raised in Magick, it isn't Magick any more, it's just Life." - my son Kobe. Ever notice how all the really fun and big ideas start small and kinda sneak up on you with you yummy positive energy that you could not have predicted or imagined if you tried. I believe we are each a facet of a diamond and cannot see the whole picture, so I often end my manifestation work with the phrase, "this or something better," because maybe the Goddess has more to offer me than I can imagine from my window. When it became clear that we all had to hunker down, I thought it would be nice to do a virtual book talk instead of my Oregon book tour. But after one video with my son Kobe producing and adding in his music, the creativity, deep communication, and healing growth blossomed like Spring. Sometimes as we age, we lose a little of that youthful verve, but if we're really lucky somebody will reflect back to us the power and light that we really are. With Kobe behind the camera, I was reminded of the Witch Mama I had been 20 years ago - full of fortitude, strength, and flames of passion that licked at everything nature had to offer and teach me. Fully inspired by this artistic dance with my son, we taped three more videos and have the start of a Witch Talk series (see link in bio), which will include basic Witchcraft, magical correspondences, Goddess/Gods, Sabbats and Spells from The Book of Spells: The Magick of Witchcraft. This week I explain the Pagan holidays known as Sabbats, Magickal knotwork, my favorite herbal tea recipe and how to make cascarones. Never be small or something other than who you are to please another or fit in. Your facet of the diamond is perfect and needed to make the world as bright as possible. . . . . . . #sabbats #pagan #ostara #spring #springequinox #beyou #witchmama #witch #witchcraft #thebookofspells #bookofspells #herbs #nettles #spearmint #herbaltea #cascarones #Goddess #Magick #brightblessings #beltane #litha #lammas #mabon #samhain #yule #imbolg #wheeloftheyear #mandalaofnature #knotwork

We Were Made for These Times is an amazing essay by Clarissa Pinkola Estes, author of one of all time my favorite books, Women Who Run With the Wolves. Estes has been a guiding force for me because she speaks with the great authority of a woman who has done the in-depth work, the research, and along the way uncovered truths that are underlying and connect us all. ✨ We Were Made for These Times. We have been collectively developing our wisdom, strength and compassion. We have unflinchingly looked at our shadow selves and brought forth our light. Now is the time to shine. ✨ We Were Made for These Times favorite paragraph.. "Ours is not the task of fixing the entire world all at once, but of stretching out to mend the part of the world that is within our reach. Any small, calm thing that one soul can do to help another soul, to assist some portion of this poor suffering world, will help immensely. It is not given to us to know which acts or by whom, will cause the critical mass to tip toward an enduring good." ✨ Allow your soul to shine out like a beacon, a spark that ignites the flames that burn away at what no longer serves the collective good "To display the lantern of soul in shadowy times like these - to be fierce and to show mercy toward others; both are acts of immense bravery and greatest necessity." . . . #inthistogether #madeforthis #staystrong #together #womenempoweringwomen #wegotthis #positivevibes #optimist #bebrave #leanin #loveyou #staysafe #inspireeachother #inspiration #shinebright #ownyourstarshine #hearts #heartcentered

Patreon is a platform to support artists, teachers, and creators with monthly financial support. Artists set up different tiers and, in exchange for your support, will send you exclusive artwork, poetry, short stories, etc., on a monthly basis. Sometimes you can support an artist for just $3 a month. Think if we all chipped in and helped those who bring art, inspiration, and beauty to the world, how much those dollar bills will add up. ❤️ I just signed up to support my friend Jane @janestarrweils and I am so thrilled to share her painting which she calls Sophia. Isn't it gorgeous? Jane and I met at Faerie Con in 2009 and have stayed in touch, developing a friendship over the years via Facebook. She drew a beautiful painting called Magickal Still Life for a postcard that was sent to influencers when The Book of Spells: The Magick of Witchcraft was released in October. ❤️ I'm an optimist who looks for the silver lining and the pony under the manure. I direct my positive energy to the places where I want to grow love, security and connection. Especially in times that are scary, like now, all I want to do is love more, share more. I am learning to ask for help too and feel the Universal Love shine through me when my requests are granted. For example, my credit union just gave me two months deferral on my car loan : ) So now I can buy gift certificates from local mom & pop shops and give them to my favorite massage therapist and bartender (because really aside from family that's who I'm missing!) And sign up for Patreon. Do any of you have Patreon accounts? What are the good stories happening in your community of people supporting others? ❤️ . . . #community #patreon #artists #art #bookofspells #thebookofspells #helpeachother #leanin #stayathome #giftcards #buylocal #buysmall #inthistogether #staystrong #covidkindness #art #faerieart #faerie #fae #kindnessmatters #creativity #positivevibes #positiveenergy #optimist #lovewins

Got outside for a walk up to the Sierra spine and a look down into the valley. ❄️❄️❄️ Light snow fell around me my son and partner as we walked for two hours in the peace. ☮️💕☮️ Just beautiful. I breathed with the trees and let go of my fears and worries. Best self care I could have done today. I hope you all get a chance to be in nature today and feel the hug of our Great Mother. . . .#selfcare #mountainlife #staysafe #inthistogether #thistooshallpass #family #hugs #familymemories #letitgo #letitsnow #goddess #greatmother #bekind #motherearth #nature #natureheals #peace
