What an amazing grand opening we had at Curio, Craft & Conjure last weekend! Our C-4 Station is a popular attraction and we are getting great reviews on Facebook – {Grateful!!!} With all the hubbub going on, one of my favorite moments was when a young woman walked up to our staged altar …
Willy-Nilly Magick Exposed
So last week, I talked about how you can move your practice from some-timey to getting the results you desire more-often than not. I mentioned that one of the things that can turn your rituals around is the practice of preliminary divination. Check out my blog here if you missed it, because …
Avoid Willy-Nilly Magic
Very often, when people decide they want to “do magick”, they get some witch book which walks them through some type of ritual for love, wealth or success. Then they gather their materials, and start a practice I call “Willy-Nilly Magick”. Can I say something? This is the worst and least …
4 Keys to Active Magick
Most of us have learned that when creating affirmations our words should be positive and present tense. The theory here is that our brain responds to this best. Underlying this fact, is our beliefs (usually around worth) needs “correcting” so that we can create new neural pathways to support our …
The BEST Intentions
I am finding a huge divide among people in the spiritual community these days. Some believe “Everything happens for a reason” and some believe “I am the reason why everything happens.” I am somewhere in the middle. Wanna know why? Basic religion indicates the “will of God” is always done. The …
4 Keys to Creating Meaningful Magick
Happy Sunday Beautiful! Have you ever worn “lucky socks” or use a “lucky charm” when you want things to go your way? Many people get weirded out by words like “spells”– but in the end, (for me – anyway), it’s all about personal rituals. Folks that follow certain spiritual paths may feel …
Divination. Oracles. Magick. Witches.
Looking at these words clumped together may leave some of us feeling uneasy, & others squealing with delight (I am the latter, in case you haven’t guessed). In January 2016 I posted something on Facebook about a bird flying into my house. I asked the group what they thought it …
Bewitched?
Bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie were among my favorite shows growing up, Today, they help demonstrate a valuable lesson to my students. Both characters in these shows (“Jeannie” and “Samantha”) worked their magick often, and did something “special” to “turn their magick on”. Samantha wiggled her …
What’s UP with you, lately?
Yup. This was a real question someone asked me. My friend noticed that my emails & topics are little more “woo”. For some reason, she interprets the word “Magick” with “the dark”. Fortunately, I didn’t take it personally and banish her from my Queendom ;o) I did recognize a beautiful teaching …
Candle Magick (or “Setting Lights”)
When I was in my late teens, I moved in with my best friend (who I met in college) and his family. Mario’s Mom, Mama Rosa was a loving woman who welcomed everyone. In typical Dominican style, she always had enough food for an army cooking on the stove and neighbors would come and go, making …
The “W” Word
So…I am having lunch with my friend (a former student who now has her own thriving business) and I shared my most exciting secret: I was able to secure author Sasha Graham for Lumin8 Charlotte, my annual “Educational FunRaiser” that helps people with cancer. She had never heard of her, so I shared …
The Method to My Magick
My intention for 2018 is to bring more magick into people’s lives. So, in this newsletter, I will introduce you to my approach to magick. “Setting intentions” is very different from “setting goals”. And after the last two (trying) years, I learned the value of counting blessings over counting …
