I am a Goddess Worshipping, Witch Priestess, working within the old ways and with a specific emphasis on the true Faery/Underworld tradition, Wombyn's Mysteries and Shamanistic practices. My intention for this space and my service is to spread the word of The Great Goddess.I am working on become a Wild Witch once more but for now I am a Re-Wilding Witch. You may find uncomfortable truths here and
I will admit, my ways are not for the faint of heart, but they are soulful, they are nourishing, the are sustaining, they are lasting.I will not lead you through the woods but I will help you build your home there with me if you so wish!
“When I dare to be powerful, to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid.”
― Audre Lorde
We gain strength, and courage, and confidence by each experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face... we must do that which we think we cannot.
―Eleanor Roosevelt
Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.
―Anais Nin
And we need courage. The word "courage" comes from the same root word as COEUR the French word for heart. We need all the courage of which the human heart is capable, forged into both weapon and shield to defend what is left of this planet. And the lifeblood of courage is of course love. So while this is a book about fighting back, in the end this is a book about love. The songbirds and the salmon need your heart, no matter how weary, because even a broken heart is still made of love. They need your heart because they are disappearing, slipping into that longest night of extinction, and the resistance is nowhere in sight. We will have to build that resistance from whatever comes to hand:whispers and prayers, history and dreams, from our bravest words and braver actions. It will be hard, there will be a cost, and in too many implacable dawns it will seem impossible. but we will have to do it anyway. So gather your heart and gather with every living being. With love as our First Cause, how can we fail?

“I have come to believe over and over again that what is most important to me must be spoken, made verbal and shared, even at the risk of having it bruised or misunderstood.”
― Audre Lorde
“and when we speak we are afraid
our words will not be heard
nor welcomed
but when we are silent
we are still afraid
So it is better to speak
remembering
we were never meant to survive”
― Audre Lorde, The Black Unicorn: Poems
“There are and will be those who think I have gone overboard. Let them rest assured that this assessment is correct, probably beyond their wildest imagination, and that I will continue to do so.”
―Mary Daly
