If you’re like me, you love all things feminine, witchy, psychological, and pop culture. At their intersection is Anna Biller’s 2017 masterpiece of contestable genre (Horror? Drama? Thriller?) The Love Witch. Don’t let the delectable 1960s technicolor fool you, this movie is newer than the infamous Ghostbusters! remake.

Sit down for a spell for a witchaversary tale from the broom closet, and a little note on the path least traveled: your own.
Befriending Your Inner Child
There is something so charming about a tea party. During the pandemic, I had time for a long and detailed morning routine, which at one point included a tea party and oracle reading session. After my meditation, I would open all of the windows in my bedroom and sit on the floor with a sliceContinue reading “Befriending Your Inner Child”
Power of the Portal
You’ve done your new moon. You’ve done your full moon. You’ve even done your occasional eclipse, although maybe it did you. Does anything else happen in the sky in those two weeks between? Yes, quite a bit, actually. You’ve got your transits, retrogrades, meteor showers, each with their own additions to the cosmic charcuterie board.Continue reading “Power of the Portal”

This past Friday the thirteenth, I cast a spell I usually call a blessing bowl. Rather than capture the energy in a bag orContinue reading “Sense & Sensuality”

Writing has brought great things into my life: a bike for an essay, an editorial position on the yearbook staff in high school (that’s where I met Aivrey), and an invaluable knowledge of myself honed over the course of seven years of journaling. The written elements in my creations and practice have always been fruitful,Continue reading “Flip The Script”

Divine feminine energy has returned to the spotlight in recent online discussions as a kind of panacea for the internal issues many women are plagued by. It’s been cited as a way toContinue reading “Lady of the Light”
