Witchcraft Business Booms due to Trump Administration, Evangelicals and CBD

Last updated on: March 27, 2019 at 12:07 pm By Heron Michelle

During those first eight relatively hopeful Obama years, our Witchy business quietly grew, yet still struggled financially. Then suddenly these last two years of the Trump Administration our sales tripled! So, what changed? I think it is because of the anxiety bred by the Trump Administration, the boldness of Evangelicals, and the availability of CBD products from hemp...among other things. Read more

Shopkeeper Sagas: Deep Roots are not Reached by the Frost

Last updated on: May 12, 2020 at 6:09 pm By Heron Michelle

I had my marching orders to help heal society and the earth through Divine Love. But how? The day after my burning bush moment, a new door was opened for me. It was there I discovered I could use my special blend of clairvoyance and Reiki to heal and retrieve information about past lives throughout time. This is the tale of how I figured out how to do that. Read more

Shopkeeper Sagas: The Old that is Strong Does Not Wither

Last updated on: May 12, 2020 at 6:06 pm By Heron Michelle

Occasionally, the gods talk to me...I call these my “burning bush” moments. They are few and far between, but are pretty low-key events when they happen. However, this one time, I'd traveled a very long distance on a kind of Spiritual Pilgrimage. It was an epic quest, just like in the mythologies of old. Read more

Shopkeeper Sagas: Renewed be the Blade that was Broken

Last updated on: May 12, 2020 at 6:12 pm By Heron Michelle

Personal Will is like one's blade, and it is forged in elemental fire. There was a time back in my 30's when my blade was broken by the pains of life, but through Witchcraft, it has been renewed. Read more

Good Judgment? or Nonjudgmental? Let’s Unpack This…

Last updated on: March 1, 2019 at 10:51 am By Heron Michelle

We say we are nonjudgmental...how accepting of diversity we are, that we have compassion for our fellow man, no matter what. We call that unconditional Divine Love. Yet, we also extol the virtues of showing "good judgment." Which is the greater virtue? Good judgment or nonjudgmental? Let's unpack this... Read more

A Mother’s Love is Irrational

Last updated on: February 21, 2019 at 11:45 am By Heron Michelle

Show me any devoted mother, and I'll show you heart break. She grieves over every harm life imposes on her children, and suffers each woe and ailment along with them. She knows that to love her children well, is to raise them to courageously leave her protection behind. So, she painstakingly prepares them to fly directly into the fray - to face the dangers of the outer world, the struggles of their inner world. Somehow, she is meant to accomplish all this without allowing them to be traumatized by reality. Read more

67 minutes for this Full Storm Moon in Pisces/Virgo Balance

Last updated on: February 22, 2019 at 6:03 pm By Heron Michelle

The true potency of the full moon energies occurs when the moon is full in the sign opposite that of the Sun. When it is in "opposition" to the sun, (180 degrees) a perfect balance is formed in the zodiac. It is a big yin/yang symbol in the cosmos. It is the tension and intersection of the two sides of this polarity that are auspicious. This polarity hangs between illusion and reality, or nebulous emotion and structured materialness. Read more
