One of the core things that forms part of my Everyday Magick is an altar. My altar is a sacred space where my most sacred tools live. It’s created with intent for a specific reason, having a magickal, sacred space where I can focus my ritual intent. Let me describe my altar to you. I am sitting in my office. […]
As Valentines day rolls around you may be feeling there is something missing in your life. Nowadays with the rise of the feminist movement it is echoed that we do not require a significant other to be happy. But no one can tell you that the longing for partnership that you feel is nothing. Love spells can be a touchy […]
Though many of us do it on a day-to-day basis, driving can be a treacherous activity. Between misdirection, road rage, upkeep and maintenance, driving is often a stressful component of everyday life.

Taking the time to look inward and evaluate the goals we intend to […]

It’s not only a beautiful and varied stone, but an incredibly versatile one. In ancient history, the Romans believed moonstone was the solidified shards […]
Sigils are, in the most basic sense, personal symbols that are imbued with the magick and intentions of the user. Much like ancient runic alphabets, sigils have many uses and can be inscribed into objects or tools of magick, worn as amulets or given as gifts. However, unlike established magickal alphabets, sigils represent a goal or word that is connected to […]
With Christmas right around the corner it can be a confusing and isolating time for some pagans especially those that are new to their path. Many feel they can’t celebrate Christmas with their loved ones and nothing could be further from the truth. Now don’t get me wrong, I am not the Pagan police, nor am I the Christmas police. […]
