Merry Mabon Witches! This Sabbat is sometimes bitter-sweet for me. On the bitter side, I have to say goodbye to the fruitful gifts of summer such as not wearing shoes, brilliant sunsets on the beach, bbq'ing almost every day and growing herbs and vegetables on my balcony. However, I get to transition into the super sweet side of Autumn! I welcome with open arms all the wonderful things fall brings, from cozy sweaters, basking in the vibrant colours of the changing leaves against grey skies, delicious teas, soups and stews season to harvesting my crops both figuratively (taking stock of what...

Cannabis is compatible with witchcraft in so many ways! This magickal multi-use plant can amplify your meditation and divination practices, help you connect with your spirits, be used in spellwork, enhance your magickal ceremonies and bathing rituals, or in this blog's case, help increase your confidence and self-possession.

Lammas encourages us to take a moment to relax and reflect on the upcoming abundance of Autumn. It's a time to bless...

Merry Meet witches! I've always enjoyed cooking and baking for myself and others. Layering intention and focus into the cooking process helps to whisk a little magick into the mix and allows me to whip up tasty enchanting treats! To celebrate Litha and the summer solstice, I chose to bake some delicious crescent moon shortbread cookies featuring two very summery flavours, lavender and lemon. Ingredients 1 cup all-purpose flour 1/4 tsp. salt 1/3 cup granulated sugar 1 1/2 tsp. culinary lavender mixed with organic lemon peel (lavender is great for love, friendship and harmony magick and the lemon wonderful for summer and happiness magick) 1/2 cup unsalted butter* softened 1/2 tsp. vanilla...
