seasons changing

As I am writing this the waning moon is still heavy and bright, the energy of the fall is waning too. We are over halfway through the season. As we move away from Samhain the days are getting shorter and shorter and the nights stretch so much longer. 

How do you feel during this time of year?
Do you lean into the longer nights as a way to rest more?
To reflect more?
To craft more?
Do you start to get the blues as the sun wanes?

I love the way this time of year pulls me inward. The sweaters, the boots, the stars that spend so much more time sparkling, it all brings a sense of cozy peace to me.

During this season I start digging into practices in my craft that feel like fall to me. 
Simmer pots on the stove, candles burning on the altar.
Time beneath the starry sky connecting with the constellations and the energy of the cosmos. 
Last night I sat in my yard and listened to hooting of a great horned owl and pondered this great bird and the power they hold, and the messages they bring. 

What are your autumnal practices?

With the coming shift in the Season it is also time to get to crafting up the Winter Digest. 
If you would like to contribute an article, a recipe, a spell or instructions for a ritual or craft, the deadline for submissions is Friday November 22nd. 
You can email them to [email protected] I can’t wait to see what magick you are ready to share with the world!

I’ve been cooking up some enchantment in the Wise Woman Witchery Cauldron and we’ve got some amazing things coming soon!

If you are looking for some community to carry you through the Winter Season, I have just the space for you. 
The Winter Circle is a 6 session, 2 ritual offering that begins at the Winter Solstice and ends at the Spring Equinox. This circle is limited to 8 participants to foster trust and connection. 
During our 6 sessions we will be using embodiment practices, ceremony, expressive arts and the power of sharing our experiences to honor and support our journey through the Winter months. 
Join the Waitlist and be the first to know when registration opens!

Want to gather in person?
The Summer Solstice Outdoor Retreat is happening here in Northern California June of 2025. 
Mark your calendars for June 19th through the 22nd. Then make your travel plans and come camp with me and spend four days making magick together.
