Collecting Water

Last updated on: August 17, 2020 at 11:58 am By Annwyn Avalon

There are many ways to collect water and there is no “one way” to collect it. However, there are some things you need to be very careful of. First, get a good sharpie and labeling system going. You need to know what is in your jars! After a while, you will have a cupboard for just your waters and in the end they all look like water. Read more

Give it to Gaia

Last updated on: April 13, 2017 at 11:17 am By Annwyn Avalon

When I was younger and still today I would cringe when I would hear the phrase “Give it to God”. I used to hate this because to me it suggests give up personal responsibility in life. Now you may be wondering what this blog is going to be about since I am clearly saying that you need to be responsible for your actions and the path you walk. So why Give It To Gaia? A few days ago I was... Read more

My two cents part 2 – Yes we can work together

Last updated on: July 17, 2021 at 3:30 pm By Annwyn Avalon

Last week I wrote about my irritations with the mass cursing of Trump. This week I want to talk about how I think we can make positive change with healing and aggressive magic together. I originally had written these two posts as one, it was suggested that I split them into two parts because it was very long. I wanted to add a small section here because it was pointed out to me last week, I wanted to add that... Read more

My two cents on cursing

Last updated on: July 17, 2021 at 3:23 pm By Annwyn Avalon

Before I begin my post, I want to start with a declaration on how I feel about cursing. To me, cursing is like a fine wine. It is not for children, witchlings, or novices, there is a time and place for fine wine, and it’s not every day, and it’s not all the time. Too much wine, like too much cursing, can be a really bad thing, and depending on what you are working you can get a magical hangover.... Read more

The Girl that found a Well – Interview with Gaia Woolf-Nightingall

Last updated on: May 5, 2017 at 8:14 am By Annwyn Avalon

At the Nine Fold Festival last year, I had the pleasure of presenting my lecture “Cult of the Sacred Springs and Holy Wells”. After the class I spoke with Gaia Woolf-Nightingall. She excitedly told me a story about how many years before she had found a well. I knew that this story was full of magic and synchronicity and when I decided to start interviewing other Well Maiden and Water Priestess’, I knew that I wanted to interview Gaia and... Read more

To Worship or Bargain

Last updated on: March 22, 2017 at 8:45 am By Annwyn Avalon

When it comes to Paganism and Witchcraft there seem to be many different view points on how to interact with Gods and Spirits. For many, they focus on forming relationships and pacts with spirits, others focus on worshiping with devotion at the feet of the Gods. Where do YOU fall? Do you worship or do you make pacts? Or do you worship AND make pacts? I personally fall into both categories and have different relationships with different spirits. I worship... Read more

Water Witch Blessing and Healing Ritual- World Wide

Last updated on: March 14, 2017 at 8:52 am By Annwyn Avalon

There is no doubt that water has become polluted, endangered and in danger of being destroyed in recent times. Our water ways are polluted with plastic, oil, and chemicals faster than we can clean them. With the recent political climate and news of Standing Rock, it is vital now more than ever that we fight for our water in the physical and spiritual realms. All over the world Witches are gathering to bless, heal and protect our water ways. The... Read more

Interview with the Caretakers of the White Spring

Last updated on: December 12, 2023 at 3:52 am By Annwyn Avalon

At PantheaCon 2017 I had the pleasure of attending a class on The White Spring in Glastonbury UK. It was a wonderful class with vision journeys and stories about the spring. Lisa and Max Goodwin were the ones that offered and taught this class. It was based on their experiences while they were the caretakers of the White Spring. The vision journeys took us through the sacred landscape and through the candle lit well house full of shrines and sacred... Read more

PantheaCon 2017

Last updated on: March 1, 2017 at 11:47 am By Annwyn Avalon

PantheaCon 2017 I missed blogging last week because I was recovering from PantheaCon 2017. Really long events usually take a lot of energy out of me. You probably don’t know this, but I am a spoonie. I am just really good at hiding it and I ration my spoons like a champ when these types of events come around. Which is why you don’t see me at most of the late night parties. (Though I do swim in from time... Read more
