Living the Liminal: Self-Care Doesn’t Feel Good

Last updated on: October 24, 2019 at 6:45 pm By Lisa Jade

The Corner Crone: Samhain-palooza and Expectations

Last updated on: October 24, 2019 at 6:38 pm By Martha Kirby Capo

Your “Samhain Moment” may not happen exactly on Samhain. If we slow ourselves down in the headlong rush to get there, if we soften our expectations and are mindful about being fully present where—when—we are right now, we may be surprised to perceive our Beloved Dead whispering across our senses.

Between Two Worlds: Gender Dysphoria, Death and Samhain

Last updated on: October 22, 2019 at 8:32 pm By Brianne Raven Wolf

I'm not fond of Samhain. For me, I remember too many transgender women and men who have either committed suicide, or been murdered for living how they needed to live. Instead of remembering my ancestors, I will be honoring those of us who are no longer alive at Samhain. Read more

Last updated on: October 21, 2019 at 11:12 pm By Willow Rose

Irish-American Witchcraft: Fairies and Samhain

Last updated on: October 21, 2019 at 6:30 pm By Morgan Daimler

Samhain is a time when the beings of the Otherworld are more present in the human world not as the twee fairies of modern popculture but as the powerful and tricky beings of older folklore and myth. This isn't a bad thing, but it does require a certain canniness to navigate. Read more

The Balancing Path: Non-Binary Thinking & The D&D Alignment Chart

Last updated on: January 4, 2022 at 9:04 am By Sidney Eileen

The D&D chart is an example of non-binary thinking. Odds are you’ve been using it just fine for years, and never thought about it in terms of binary vs. non-binary. Non-binary thinking really can be that easy and natural when it more accurately describes the subject. Read more

Pan-Celtic Hoofbeats: The Dagda is Not Zeus!

Last updated on: October 21, 2019 at 4:08 pm By Kris Hughes

On at least a weekly basis I see people asking which Celtic god is like Zeus or who is the Irish equivalent of Loki. No. Just stop it. Also, why? How would answering this make your life, or your relationship with a deity, better? Read more

Magick IRL: Elevator to the Moon

Last updated on: October 17, 2019 at 1:57 pm By Vincent Higginbotham

The moon has always drawn me in. Its bright, changing face was a comfort to me when I was homeless, sleeping on the street. I was not alone when I had her to talk to. And I do, I talk to the moon, still to this very day. Like a consistent, dependable friend, she has always been there. Read more

The Corner Crone: When Photos Are Rocking Are Spirits A’Knocking?

Last updated on: October 17, 2019 at 1:19 pm By Martha Kirby Capo

The first anniversary of my sister’s death is next week. She was 59. She died three days before Granny’s birth date, so now for me October belongs to Laura and Granny. The beginnings and endings become blurred, obscured and indistinct like the thinning of the Veil that also takes place around this time. Read more

The DruWitch Way: Think Twice, Banish Once

Last updated on: October 16, 2019 at 3:52 pm By Tara Sanchez

This is the time of year when magick is often dedicated to the Ancestors of all varieties. It’s going to stir things up and sometimes draw things through. Mostly though, I believe that this time of year affects the OtherWorld in exactly the same way it affects us. Read more
