The last question I answered was how I found myself responding in a group E-mail. There were two responses to this person following mine that made me think. The first was an acknowledgement to commit your life to what you love and follow your soul's calling and magic will happen. The focus was on the commitment. The second was an encouragement to follow your big dreams and not lose sight of them, maybe taking a part time job to help with the...

I was reading "The Magical Battle of Britain" by Dion Fortune this morning. "How can those who do not occupy a position of influence play their part in bringing in the New Age? ... Upon the physical plane they can do little or nothing, but in the kingdom of the Unseen they can exercise a potent influence if they make use of that knowledge which is power - the ancient, secret wisdom of the Mystics. There are two ways in which this power is...

Have you noticed that more and more is becoming clear? My book, my writing, has come strongly to the fore again in the last week for a couple reasons. The title was Perfection and Ease. And there was a subtitle. I just looked it up:  A New Way of Life. Yes, that is what I feel happening right now. We are, or I am, creating a new way of life, a new way of living, a new way of being. I have felt many times in the last three to four days. This...

I am surprised to see I have not chosen to write for 6 weeks. Much has been sorted and shifted through. Much has completed. Much has begun. I think I have different levels of journals in 4 or 5 different places now. I am watching power today. It is very circular, thus calling it the dance. For many of us, we wish we had more power. Why can't we create the money, or the home, or the relationship, or the whatever it is? I mean, we can create...

Seed for today. Creating the golden age, bringing in the golden age. I have started to see just creating the golden age for me. What is a golden age for me? I offered it to Rick. Shall we create it for us now? As I spoke it, he could feel it and it became more tangible for him.  I sent some brief thoughts and words to another friend this morning, following on from a discussion and agreement yesterday. Her response was immediate. She needed...

Yesterday, I found myself in a dialogue with Miss Cackle about our garden design. It opened from a Tarot card that I drew when visiting the Yew tree. I used the words in sharing that we are creating a magical garden (yard/patio) space. In looking back, I see that I have been feeling the magic of that space, and my excitement is that of a sculptor who brings through from the medium what is already there, makes it visible. And Miss Cackle...

Seems like a lifetime, but my calendar says it’s been 22 days since I met the friend/mentor of a friend/teacher. She comes from a known maternal line of following the ancient ways of magic, seeing and know the correspondences, how all things interrelate. She has looked at other traditions but has found she is really at home in the Celtic / Britain / Druid ways. She has become my teacher, not that she teaches any longer. She has retired. But...

I feel amazing. This week has been crazy. There are so many things new and changing. I am getting ready to go into an away-from-everything state - two full days ... of I don't know what yet, but going within for sure. I woke yesterday knowing I wanted to start doing handstands. I do not remember being able to do one as a child. I could do a cartwheel. And I could walk around, and up and down stairs, in a back bend - as I recall it with my...

We had a friend reach out recently with financial woes. We met with him to get a feel for the big picture, not knowing how we might assist but we had offered and he said yes. The first meeting was putting everything on the table, many years and several businesses back. As usual, most of the beginning talk was about not knowing what he wanted. But there were nuggets every once in a while, a spark of energy, a twinkle in the eye. And we would...

Interesting times right now - well, always, yes? I am still writing here because occasionally someone replies and occasionally someone I am speaking to mentions they enjoy my words. It is easier to journal - then I don't need to think about how someone may take something. Yet, there may still be value here. It has been a long time since I thought of myself as, or referred to myself as, a witch. I just remember many years ago having to come...
