Back in July, I posted a ritual (not mine) to help protect immigrants. With all the hubub around Title X funds, I would like to offer you another ritual, this time from Crafting Change, for Abortion Patients, Providers, and Protectors. What you will need: * A quiet space to do this work * That which…

Psychic Protection is foundational, empowering information
A lot of people get annoyed when they want to study with me and I tell them they need to take my Psychic Protection class first. They argue that they already know the information. They argue they just want to learn The Thing. Sometimes they just wander off. Psychic Protection is a prerequisite for so…

Psalms: Talking Back to the Divine
I thought it would be nice to write about something that wasn’t astrology for once. I keep telling people I’m not an astrologer… So let’s talk about Psalms. Most of the Abrahamic sacred texts are variants and interpretations of the Divine talking to humans. The Psalms are humans talking back to the Divine. They contain…
Healing Requires Change
Many people ask for healing without really thinking about what it is they are asking. The quest for healing brings about change, and change is not always comfortable.

It is now fully dried and ready to be passed on to you! This Manifestation Cedar can be ground for you, if you’re going to…
Rainy Full Moon
I am inordinately excited about the timing of weather in Southern California this week. Thursday will be both a Full Moon and raining, which affords me a rare opportunity. I have talked before in this blog about the moon (and occasional solar) waters I make, but there hasn’t been much opportunity to do it with…
Pantheacon: Saturday Wrap Up
A run down of day 2 at Pantheacon 2016.
Close Encounters with Coyote
Crossroads magic is an interesting practice, and I suspect each person approaches it somewhat differently. Crossroads are one of those places the Scots call Thin Spots – places where the veil is thin. For me, crossroads are an opportunity to create goodwill with the spirits, and to make the occasional entreaties. I don’t tend to…
