Birds are chirping, small sprouts of green are peeking up from the newly thawed soil, and the Northern Hemisphere is abundant with the songs of spring!

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...

Close to Lammas, I start to feel a little disconnected from myself. Summer has me running around with so many activities, even this year during the Covid-19 pandemic.

On the summer solstice, we celebrate Litha and the life-giving sun! It is a time for light magick, honouring love, luck, abundance, fertility, and joyous energy. Litha, as with many celebrations, is centred around gathering with your witchy clan and loved ones around a bountiful table of delicious love-infused food or roaring bonfire.  We may not be able to congregate across a glorious banquet table decorated with spring flowers, finger-licking BBQ and seasonal fruits and vegetables, but we can still bring light into our lives with food. This is especially wonderful for the weed loving witch, as we all know...

As the sun’s power increases, so may our feelings of anxiousness and hopelessness as typically Beltane is a time to gather together and celebrate High Spring. We will be missing our nature rituals, elaborate May Day fire rites and jubilating with loved ones. This Beltane will feel odd, however in a time of uncertainty, turning to traditions and rituals will help heal the soul. Celebrations shouldn’t be cancelled, they will just need to be altered.   Beltane is about high energy and celebrating life with titillating revelry, but it is also the time, like Samhain,...
