Of Light & Shadow: Connecting with Anubis at Samhain

Last updated on: October 13, 2019 at 5:16 pm By Charlie Larson

Samhain is not an Egyptian-originated holiday. But if you take a look at the religion of the ancient world of Egypt, it’s rife with themes of death, the dead, the afterlife, spirits of the dead, ancestral reverence, etc. For me, it’s not as much the origin of the celebration as the celebration itself.

Magick IRL: Spiral Out; Keep Going

Last updated on: October 2, 2019 at 9:15 pm By Vincent Higginbotham

Real magick happens in the seemingly mundane conversations with a coworker, when you realize you’ve just channeled the spirit, source, or whatever while giving advice. It happens in an interaction with a stranger when you offer a kind gesture that changes their day. Read more

The Corner Crone: What Were You Expecting?

Last updated on: October 2, 2019 at 7:04 pm By Martha Kirby Capo

But, you ask, what if I’m doing it all wrong? Ask yourself this: Are you doing your best? Are you sincere? Is what you’re doing more about being seen by others as whatever defines “witchy”, and less about the private meditations of your deepest heart? Do you remember to say ‘thank you’? Read more

Living the Liminal: Signs Everywhere – Do You Want Them or Not?

Last updated on: October 21, 2019 at 10:53 pm By Lisa Jade

Hearing about signs is one of the most common things within the broader pagan community. We all seem to be waiting for them, for loads of different reasons. The action of waiting for them seems to send out an energy that tells the world you’re not ready for what you need to hear. Read more

Phoenix Rising: Black Mirror – Working With Obsidian

Last updated on: October 2, 2019 at 1:08 pm By Robin Corak

Each time we descend into the dark half of the year, there is another stone that I find myself increasingly drawn to. Its inky blackness pulls me in like a magnet, and I find myself returning to its mysteries again and again. Obsidian has become a powerful personal ally. Read more

Irish-American Witchcraft: 31 Movies for Halloween

Last updated on: October 1, 2019 at 2:04 pm By Morgan Daimler

I celebrate October by watching a movie every day that has some connection to either Halloween itself or a wider theme I associate with the time of year: ghosts, the dead, monsters, or witches. It's just a nice way to keep in the Halloween frame of mind and have fun with it all. Read more

Hearth of Hellenism: The Cult of Academia

Last updated on: September 30, 2019 at 6:07 pm By Angelo Nasios

The vast majority of scholarship out there is not from polytheists. Their work is not aimed towards practitioners, nor do they provide insight into the application for the 21st century. Why would you choose what they say over direct sources from antiquity that teach emically? Read more

Between Two Worlds: Escape, Never to Return?

Last updated on: September 30, 2019 at 2:35 pm By Brianne Raven Wolf

I was doing a pretty deep meditation when I received a message I believe was from Hekate Herself. "Something will happen to you from 50 years ago, give or take a few years." I thought, what does that mean. Who is it about? Turned out it wasn't who, it was where. Read more

Magick IRL: The Radio is Suddenly Speaking to Me

Last updated on: September 26, 2019 at 2:42 pm By Vincent Higginbotham

When I receive a sign or message from beyond the physical world, I tend to have a rather physical reaction. This is often in the form of a sort of tingling at the back of my neck. It’s like the hair stands straight out from every pore. In those moments I’m aware there are bigger things than I can imagine at work. Read more
