0 Comments

Soul Runes are a divination tool, and complete magical system, specific to Crane Practice, though they can be used by anyone. These Runes and Rune system can be used as simply, or as complex, as a practitioner makes them. To get started though, you first need a basic understanding of them, how to craft your own, and ways to get started with them.

The Challenging and Misunderstood Duality

Last updated on: June 25, 2024 at 12:01 pm By Esa

0 Comments

How did we end up here? A place where Duality is seen as a negative thing that must be squashed? Ok. yes I am being a little over-dramatic here, but the truth is there does seem to be some misunderstandings around Dualities and what it means to work within Dualities from my perspective. It all started when I was searching for a specific meme – what I was confronted with was several memes discussing the toxicity of Duality. I even... Read more

Magical Seals are most commonly associated with Spirit work/ communication, but they can also be powerful self contained spells. Meaning that they already contain all the magical energies and core intentions woven into them, all you have to do is draw, charge, and add your specific intention on-top. They can be used to create permanent spells by incorporating them into something, such as carving or sewing them into an item. You can add them to other magical workings, like jars... Read more

Should We Go Deeper Into Solar Magic?

Last updated on: June 10, 2024 at 11:27 am By Esa

0 Comments

As you may know I am a bookworm. When it comes to Witchy/ Occult books, I love to read about people’s personal experiences and interpretations. It allows a glimpse into different ideas and expressions of those ideas, because in practice, magic is personal. Being Summer time, and the month of the longest day, I decided to see what books were out there concerning Solar Magic specifically – and I only found one called Sun Magic, and that one seems to...

The Wheel turns once again, moving from a place of doing and into a place of being. Summer Solstice has a long history as a turning point. For some it marks a celebration of the sun or light on the longest day of the year. Embracing the bounty of the earth, not yet ready to be plucked but growing and expanding. Some see it as the height of the magical season, with the sun energizing the world. Others see it... Read more

Working from the Core – An Element of Power

Last updated on: May 14, 2024 at 5:16 pm By Esa

0 Comments

I grew up, and have spent most my life, in the forest, foothills, and Mountains of the US. In the early years of my practice I had thought the element I was most drawn to was Earth. The lush greens of spring and summer. The shifting and dancing colors of fall. Even the slumber of the winters brought a deep sense of comfort. I also knew deep down somewhere that what I was really connecting to and being drawn to... Read more

Something has been shifting within the energy. Many of us have been experiencing it and talking about it from different perspectives. It is being felt through all the planes in different ways because we are all connected through it. Some of us that work more deeply in the spirit realms – those of the unseen – are being bombarded with information (downloads and messages). It feels like something has begun and we are just on the cusp of its beginning.... Read more
