Supported Unfolding | Crystals for the Full Moon in Virgo + Blood Moon Eclipse, 3/13

"Life is to be experienced, not fought against, run from, or engaged halfheartedly. Though we may wish to make changes in the future, to be conscious is to be with an experience as it’s unfolding, rather than thinking about how we would like to change it. Taking charge of our life so that we alter the quality of our experiences in the future comes after an experience." ~Shefali Tsabary

Burning the List: Virgo Full Moon + Lunar Eclipse Ritual‍, 3/13

"Do you have the patience to wait till your mud settles and the water is clear? Can you remain unmoving until the right action arises by itself? The Master doesn’t seek fulfillment. Not seeking, not expecting, she is present, and can welcome all things.” ~Lao Tzu, trans. by Stephen Mitchell

Feel It All | Crystals for the New Moon in Pisces, 2/27/25

Commonsense Almanac By Ben Commons | February 2025

“This entire thing we're involved with called the world, is an opportunity to exhibit how exciting alienation can be. Life is a matter of a miracle that is collected over time by moments, flabbergasted to be in each other's presence. The world is an exam to see if we can rise into direct experience. Our eyesight is here as a test to see if we can see beyond it. Matter is here as a test for our curiosity. Doubt is here as an exam for our vitality.” ~Timothy Levitch

Remember the Rituals of Conscious Communication

Conscious communication, from a place of authenticity, is a way to manifest the better world of our hopes and dreams, in the here and now. Our words and their expression, in all forms, shape our reality. Actively listening, and communicating with kindness, vulnerability, and awareness, can make all the difference in the world.

Shadow Work | Learning to Love your Subtle Darkness

"Everyone has a subtle darkness that wraps around them like a soft, velvet cloak. This is your shadow, the part of you that is dark, rich, and fertile…" (Shaheen Miro & Theresa Reed). Learn how embracing your shadow can liberate you from entrenched fears and limiting beliefs, and unlock the key to expressing your full, creative self to the world.

Create a Beltane Altar

You can create an altar using any items sacred to you. If the item has significance to you and brings you feelings of celebration, peace, love, or inspiration, it’s a good choice. This is your altar. This is your sacred space. Make it yours.

Altared Consciousness - A Place to Remember

As far as we know homo sapiens, and the Neanderthals before them, have been constructing, decorating and worshiping at altars for millennia. Whether at the base of a tree, the top of a mountain or the water’s edge; within a cave, chapel or temple: the impulse to express devotion and connect with ‘something’ unseen within and beyond ourselves, endures.

Effortless Ease | Let the Earth Breathe For You

Think of resting on the earth, or being held by the Earth...In beloved Buddhist teacher Thich Nhat Hanh's book, "Zen and the Art of Saving the Planet," you will discover a beautiful meditation that explores how stop "trying" and allow the Earth to work through us, so that we can shift our state of being from overwhelmed and tense, to light and effortless.

Work with your Dreams to Strengthen Your Intuition

Our dreams are a rich source of images and feelings, which can illuminate the workings or our subconscious mind. Learn more about the connection between dreams and deep innate wisdom in an excerpt from Rose Inserra's book "Dreams: What Your Subconscious Wants to Tell You". Discover her four-step method for practical dreamwork and understanding your dreams.

Affirmations for Acceptance, Self-Love, and Excellence in All Things

The antidote to perfectionism is self-love and acceptance. Get a deeper understanding of the difference between perfectionism and excellence--one will drain your energy and drag down your confidence, while the other will energize you and build self-confidence. Here are some affirmations to help you shine bright and put forth new sprouts...

Intuitive Candle Dressing with Herbs and Essential Oils

Dressing a candle is the act of anointing the candle with oils and herbs to add an additional level to your magical workings, personal rituals, and ceremonies.

Celebrating Losar, the Tibetan New Year

"Traditionally, prayer flags are used to promote peace, compassion, strength, and wisdom. The flags do not carry prayers to gods, which is a common misconception; rather, the Tibetans believe the prayers and mantras will be blown by the wind to spread the good will and compassion into all pervading space."

Be the One who says YES

YES is an enchanted password into a new world and new point of view. YES is a deep inhale and exhale; a full breath. An opening. A stretching of the soul beyond its boundaries. YES is a knowing that you can trust the forces of the Cosmos at play in your life.

Celebrate Spring, the Equinox, and Ostara!

Ritual is a way to bring sacredness into our day to day lives. Here are some ways to Celebrate Spring, the fertility of the land, and our souls, and invite a little (or BIG!) dose of magic into our experience.
