Summer is upon us here in the Northern Hemisphere, and I have been noticing a delightful trend among my Pagan and Witchy friends: they are making plans and are determined to enjoy themselves. Seems simple, but after the last year we have all experienced, it is a welcome sight. Is it time for the rest of us to find the magic of a Pagan Summer? Read more

21 Ways to Celebrate Spring Equinox

Last updated on: March 9, 2021 at 1:46 pm   By Lisa Wagoner

Spring is coming for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere! Even if where you live is still covered with snow, listen closely. The earth is moving ever onward. It's no coincidence that March is filled with so many celebrations: Spring Equinox, Ostara, St. Patrick's Day, and sometimes Spring Break, Passover and Ramadan take place in March. With so many traditions, we feel the excitement building as the calendar turns towards this month. March 2021 also marks the one year anniversary when COVID touched many of our lives, and even though we are not out of restrictions and concern by any means, there is a glimmer of hope as vaccinations are administered and we are able to be outside more as the weather warms.  Read more

Hold on, Spring is Coming: A Witch with S.A.D.

Last updated on: February 21, 2021 at 12:10 pm   By Lisa Wagoner

Every year around this time, Ostara beckons, and I am filled with both delight and something that feels like reluctance at the thought. I have Seasonal Affective Disorder (S.A.D.), which means I have a type of depression related to the seasons. In my case, it is Winter. I've learned a few things this winter, one that has been overlaid with a pandemic. Read more

Rituals of Acceptance

Last updated on: February 7, 2021 at 12:31 pm   By Lisa Wagoner

Post Imbolc in the Northern Hemisphere can be a challenging time. Winter still lingers, cabin fever is more prevalent, and people tend to spend much more time online. There seems to be an uptick of unhappy people, as the combination of all these factors (and more) reach a crescendo before Spring finally arrives, and diverts us with its beauty. Acceptance rituals can help ease this time as we head into Spring. Read more
