In just a few weeks, we'll be celebrating the Summer Solstice with out annual group rites! This is one of our largest rituals of the year, and provides some of the most potent natural energy for personal triumph, growing abundance, and burning through what hinders us.

Look who's hiding up on our tallest mountaintop. The mother doe (and subsequent fawn here) was well fed on offerings of corn and fruits dedicated from clients over the winter and early spring. Truly magic.

This pair of magical cords for protection and spiritual health was recently made for a client who wanted one to wear while she's at work and one for sleeping at home. ✨❤

It was a very windy and rainy Spring Equinox, but we didn't mind moving some part of the rituals indoors, and working outside at a smaller wind-safe setup during the lightest rain. 🌧️🌱

We had a great view of the lunar eclipse last night, and the perfect atmosphere for casting energy and making offerings!

(Remember, kids, never light any fire unless you have a plan for how to safely put it out in the event of an accident.)

This Spring's altar is inspired by volcanic energy, grounding in lava rock and drawing in such an abundance of energy from nature-- pearls, bat wing bones, hops, cicada sheds, lily petals, and so much else! ❤️
