“The Sun’s path has returned to where it was at Samhain. Take some time to notice the quality of the light, for it is the same now as that shimmering magical glow of late October. But instead of the season of dark and silence before us, in the Northern Hemisphere, the season of light and growth […]

Ways to Celebrate Winter Solstice and the Goddesses of Winter by Kimberly Moore
The first of December is actually the start of meteorological Winter, but in many Northern areas hard frosts and snow begin much earlier. In ancient times, when the agricultural calendar was the focus, our Ancestors knew that Winter Solstice signified the halfway point of Winter. There was comfort that half of the hardest, coldest months […]
Hekate’s Night – A Winter’s Tale by Renee Starr
Hidden by the shadowy overgrowth of dying vines and dry, lifeless trees she stood at the crossroad, the borderlands where the realm of the living mingled with the world beyond.

Goddess Calendar for November 2021 by Kimberly Moore
Each month for me is a consecration – a sacred practice of beginning a brand new journal and adorning that journal. I do a vision board (of sorts) in the beginning and what I love most about vision boarding is that where you begin is never where you end up. Also part of consecrating my […]
The Goddess Kali – Mystic Madness and Her Mantras by Kimberly Moore
“I am not one of those,” he chanted, Who puts the garland of skulls round Thy neck, And then look back in terror And call Thee ‘The Merciful’.

Daily Devotions – Inspirations for Your Practice by Kimberly Moore
“Thank you for this beautiful day of growth, of separation and individuation. Thank you for the water, the grass, the simple things we need to live and tend to take for granted. Thank you for the wide, open-range thinking, and for the ability to create our own realities with your help. Thank you for the courage […]

Goddess Practices for Abundance and Prosperity with Yellow Tara by Brandi Auset
There’s a discomfort that arises when spiritual people begin to talk about money. Somewhere along humanity’s history the idea arose that all spiritual people, regardless of culture, lineage, belief, or sect, should turn away from pleasure and money to seek a ‘higher purpose.’ Every spirituality has an established system of beliefs when it comes to […]
