Last updated on: July 2, 2023 at 9:37 pm By Esa

This transition is usually one that can take years to get to the completion point because it is not just spiritual or physical life changes – it is all of it together. It is an ascension of life. These types of transformations deserve a ritual worthy... Read more

We talk a lot about our magical practices, but less on the aspects of living in your practices. Some of you reading this are probably asking – “What does that even mean?” This is what I want to dive into. What it looks like to move from a space of practice to living it and how to infuse your daily mundane activities with your own magical flare! What is the “Goal” of Witchcraft? We all know how learning works. Gathering... Read more

Creating Spells and Candle Magic with My Ozark Women

Last updated on: June 25, 2023 at 10:32 am By Esa

There comes a point where we grow beyond just learning from books and the ideas of others. It’s not that we do not value them, but often it is the same information repeated over and over. Yet we still yearn to learn from something beyond us. My Guides are my best teachers. My Ozark Women are particularly good at this, especially when talking about magical workings. They have taught me how to look at magical crafting and blending energies in some... Read more

Creating Servitor Spirits and Other Living Magic

When we first start out, the number one thing people seem to scream at us is – PROTECTION! I think it’s even worse now than when I first started, because of social media – Everyone has an opinion and a space to push that opinion. I’m not saying protection is a bad thing, we need to have things in place because there is risk in what we do magically. What bothers me is the way it’s being done. It seems... Read more

Guides Beyond Deities – Ancestors and Their Roles in My Practices

Last updated on: June 21, 2023 at 6:16 pm By Esa

No matter who you are, you are here because of those who came before you – your Ancestors. There are some who feel very disconnected to that knowledge because of experiences they have had with the living people in their families. Our Ancestors though stretch the span of humanity. There are some we will perceive as bad, and some good. Some that have done great things for their people, and some who committed heinous acts. Just because some have left... Read more
