Beltane: Lighting Sacred Fires

Season 2 · Episode 4

Wednesday, May 4, 2022 • Duration 18:49

The season of the Fire Festival of Beltane is upon us, and this episode is pulling together some of my big dreams and sharing them with you all. I lay it all out: the history of Beltane, a modern expression of the celebration in Edinburgh, Scotland, our place on this land and in history, and a prophecy about how we can choose to live.

The universe waylaid me (quite dramatically— listen in and I'll tell you all about it) and so here I am sharing this all with you. I believe there is much conversation and collaboration yet to be had; if this sparks something in you, reach out!!

Ritual is how we shift who we are!

To do your own research, because as always there is much, much more that I didn't talk about than I did, click the links below:
Edinburgh Fire Festival
Edinburg Fire Society
Duluth Homegrown Music Festival
Seven Fires Prophecy and this too

especially this part:
"The Seventh Prophet was younger than the others who had come and there was a glowing light from his eyes. He said that there would come a time when the waters had been so poisoned that the animals and plants that lived there would fall sick and begin to die. Much of the forests and prairies would be gone so the air would begin to lose the power of life. The way of the mind brought to the red, black, and yellow nation by the white nation would bring danger to the whole earth. In this time there will be a new people who will emerge from the clouds of illusion. They will retrace their steps to find the treasures that had been left by the trail. The stories that had been lost will be returned to them. They will remember the Original Instructions and find strength in the way of the circle. Their search will take them to the elders and the new people will ask for guidance. But many of the elders will have walked the Path of the Souls to the Star Web. Many elders will have forgotten their wisdom and they will not be able to help. Some of the elders will point in the wrong direction and others will remain silent because of their fear. Some of the elders will be silent because no one has asked them for their wisdom.

If the New People will find trust in the way of all things, in the circle, they will no longer need the selfish voice of the ego and they can begin to trust their inner voice. Wisdom will be once again be found in dreams of the night and of the day. The sacred fire will once again be lit. The Light-skinned People will be given a choice between two paths. If they choose the right path the Seventh Fire will light the Eighth Fire and final fire of brotherhood and sisterhood. If they choose the wrong path, remaining on the path of the mind, then the destruction they brought with them will come back to destroy them. The people of the earth will experience much suffering and death.”

Thank you so much for reading and listening. May the fires of the season ignite within you as well!

Where Does Tarot Come From?

Season 2 · Episode 3

Saturday, April 2, 2022 • Duration 09:18

A brief history of Tarot! From origins, to dispelled myths, come check out where Tarot comes from! Follow the links and resources below to get started on your own deeper history of Tarot journey.

EDIT: I no longer podcast, so I am not recording new information, but as my learning has grown regarding the History of Tarot I want to share that on to you.

"Tarot’s cultural roots are centered in Romani history and practices in Cartomancy which was and is a survival based trade for many vitsas. Cartomancy is the interpretation of playing cards through divination. Playing cards are the origin of the tarot, as we see in the minor arcana in the playing cards we know today. The Major Arcana came later through tarot’s journey into mainstream culture and integration into mystical and magical practices through colonialism, appropriation, and forced assimilation. We encourage folks who are creating businesses, events, and practices centered in the tarot to acknowledge the history of this practice."

Let’s Joy! (And Other Spiritual Practices)

Season 2 · Episode 1

Wednesday, February 2, 2022 • Duration 17:53

It’s “Life, The Universe, and Everything” Northwoods Witch style: an inspiring soliloquy of beliefs and practices with *most* tangents paying out in the end. None of these thoughts are exclusively mine; I’m inspired by the essays and Insta feeds of great thinkers, activists, and spiritual leaders. But I hope you find some value—some resonance or inspiration—in this expression of belief! What shapes your worldview? Are you ready to hold hands with me and step out of the box? Because I can’t claim to fully live up or in to the values espoused in this episode—but I am a wholly incurable optimist and I think that together we can.

I am currently raising donations for the Gaagige-Mikwendaagoziwag “They Are Remembered Forever” Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two Spirit (MMIWg2S) People Reward Fund. Please support if you are able by visiting paypal.com/paypalme/mmip2sfund

“This Indigenous-led and grassroots fund has been established to fill a really important gap to help us address injustices, and allowing law enforcement agencies to solve these violent crimes against Indigenous women, girls and two-spirit people, while bringing justice and healing to our region” Alicia Kozlowski, [Duluth] Community Relations Officer said. “This is not only an Indigenous issue. This is a community issue. This is a human issue. We don't want to be invisible anymore because that's how we disappear.”

What is Tarot? (Wisdom app series)

Season 1

Monday, November 15, 2021 • Duration 13:08

I accepted an invitation to join the launch of Wisdom, a new social audio app which is kind of like a mash-up of Twitch and a radio talk show. I tried it out for a couple of weeks, and while I decided not to pursue it because I wan't getting the engagement I had hoped to, I found the experience super rewarding. Also I made a lot of content just talking to the folks who stayed to listen to me (of whom there were enough to make me feel like at least I accomplished something being there, thanks y'all!)

So, here is the fist talk I shared on the Wisdom app, unedited for your listening pleasure ;) all about Tarot.

In it I share my thealogy of how Tarot works, the makeup of a deck, and sundry thoughts on how Tarot is powerful tool in our lives.

I have seven (7!) of these talks—let me know if you liked this and want to hear the rest!

Riding the Wheel of the Year - and Being a Pagan Parent!

Season 1 · Episode 6

Monday, October 11, 2021 • Duration 15:07

Podcast listener Laura (👋🏻) asked me, "How do you talk to your kids about your spirituality?", and here are my thoughts!
This episode focuses on The Wheel of the Year: what it is, and how I use it with my kiddos. I also take a number of tangents around my philosophies of parenting and the history of pagan mythology so..... come on in for this ride around my Witchy Worldview!

Hey y'all,
How do you talk to your kids about religion and spirituality? I've got more stuff to say about this, and would love for you to share what you are up to too!

Wouldn't it be a bit of a thrill to chat about this in real life? So….. I am hosting talks on a brand new app called Wisdom where we could do just that!! Is that something you’d be into?

EDIT: well friends, I completely mispronounced the (longer, more challenging name I don’t use personally but still…) name for the Pagan holiday around August 1, Lughnasadh. It’s pronounced “Loo-NAH-sah”. As Daniel Tiger sang to me just this morning: 🎵 “It’s ok to make a mistake; just try to fix it, and learn from it too” 🎵

Where Does Morality Come From?

Season 1 · Episode 5

Monday, June 28, 2021 • Duration 10:02

The Lake Superior Freethinkers invited me to participate in a panel featuring joke-worthy guests “a monk, an atheist, and a witch” (we did not go into a bar, unfortunately...)

I really appreciated the opportunity to reflect deeply on this topic, and I enjoyed presenting on the panel (I was received with comments such as “I’d expected to disagree with you, but found we are on the same page” 🤷🏻‍♀️…Only a few micro aggressions from the old white dude crowd—I get them rarely so always an interesting awareness when it happens.)

ANYHOW, check out my presentation on morality! I’m super into it, I hope it feeds some part of your mind and spirit ✨ (This episode is an after-the-fact recording of my presentation, and only features my contribution)
