I stumbled upon something a few days ago that has made me happy stim every time I think about it. I wasn't even aware that I was happy stimming until one of my closest friends pointed it out today at lunch, saying she had never seen me do that before. A little taken aback, but... Continue Reading →
Releasing Magick – Samhain
Here in Colorado, we just got a second snowstorm in October. We only got a few inches but every tree and bush was covered in whiteness. As I drove my oldest to school this morning, surrounded by the whiteness and the cleanness of the snow, I felt a peace settle in my spirit. I have... Continue Reading →
Bringing it on HOME – random updates and interaction with the Divine Masculine
Samhain is 13 days away. We are officially shifted into the darkness. I am feeling a little more present in my own mind and body this week than I did for all of August, September, and the first half of October.

Ending the Year of Reckoning – Entering the Year of Dancing+Triumphant
When I chose a word for the year at the end of 2017, the word Reckoning kept coming to mind.

The Journey I’ve Been On – on becoming a Druidess
Truth be told, this is merely one of many blogs I've written on over the past decade. I see blogs as a way to merge my ever shifting thoughts and beliefs with the world I live in and my interests, however fleeting they may be. I discovered writing as a way to release the chaos... Continue Reading →
What Led Me To Paganism
I was baptized into the Christian faith at 7 years old. I was dunked under the freezing cold waters of the Rappahannock river in Virginia on a freezing cold and rainy November day. I was excited and nervous because I just wanted to be included and involved with the other "kids" who were already part... Continue Reading →
Rituals & Researching
I discovered Pinterest 5 years ago, roughly 4 1/2 years ago I really seriously started pinning. I have long been known to scour Google for information when my interest has been peaked. In short, I live and breathe researching. That's how I come to understand what it is that is holding my interest or what... Continue Reading →
