Healing by the Moon
Moon goddesses are also goddess of magic and heral healing.
Isis, Artemis, Hecate, and Diana are just a few of the any lunar deities who were invoked in herbal healing rituals and spells.
The very first forms of magic were healing magic.
Healers used the energies and properties of the world around them to bring their ailing patients back into a state of health.

Red Road Ethic 12
Take What You Need, Leave the Rest Be
There is nothing placed upon this Earth that deserves to be destroyed or wasted for the purpose of
human convenience. To destroy trees and leave them unused simply because they blocked the view of
the garden, or to kill animals only for their fur, is not a rightful way to share the world with
another. To waste and discard some-thing due to your own selfishness is an act that goes against
the Creator, and str… Continue

This month is also known as ‘The Cold Moon’ to some of our Pagan Ancestors. According to Celtic beliefs, this is the time to keep the ‘light’ alive in the present Darkness. So they made sure to keep the fires burning especially for disconnected or lost family members or friends. The light from those fires had the power to lead t… Continue

In some parts of the world, the first day of December is the traditional time for young girls to perform the ancient art of cromniomancy (divination by onion sprouts) to find out the name of their future husband.
To find out who your future husband will be, take some onions and upon each one carve or write a different man's name. Place the onions near a fire and the man whose name is on the onion that sprouts first will be the one. Continue

Several years ago, I tried a treatment that I thought of as fairly radical. I felt skeptical but in need of something more in my treatment to control bipolar disorder and co morbid conditions of my Asperger’s Syndrome. The treatment; neurofeedback. Neurofeedback is a balancing treatment for your brainwaves, and it actually works.
Neurofeedback, also called neurotherapy or EEG biofeedback is a process of training conscious control of various brainwave patterns by showing the patient results of b… Continue

Kitchen Spells
Spell to Bless your Oven
(From "Witch in the Kitchen" by Cait Johnson)
The oven is an ancient emblem of transformation. Raw brad dough is one thing, but baked bread is clearly another; what comes out of the oven is quite different from what went in. We can honor the oven and its almost alchemical magic - it's ability to change things in order to nourish us more deeply - with this simple spell.
You will need:
A cookie sheet
Flour
On the cookie sheet, which represents the Earth, sp… Continue

Sun Magick
Some magicians may wait months for the sun to enter the proper sign of the Zodiac. This is fine for major workings but unrealistic for those who are working everyday magick. However, there are other solar cycles worth following... if you have the time. If not, don't wait.

Day begins as light stretches out from the eastern horizon. This is an excellent time to perform rituals involving purification, business success, study, employment, breaking addictions of all kinds, travel,… Continue

I had no Christmas spirit when I breathed a weary sigh,
and looked across the table where the bills were piled too high.
The laundry wasn’t finished and the car I had to fix,
My stocks were down another point, the Cowboys lost by six.
And so with only minutes till my son got home from school
I gave up on the drudgery and grabbed a wooden stool.
The burdens that I carried were about all I could take,
and so I flipped the TV on to catch a little break.
I came upon a desert scene in shades of tan… Continue
