 Pain is Power – Making Magic Out of Pain

Anyone who has experienced excruciating pain will testify to the strength and power of it.  Pain has the ability to knock us to our knees and keep us confined to our beds for days.  Pain can overpower a person and render them immobile.  What you can do with your pain will surprise you. Many women [...]



 On Being A Rootworker: Never Forget Your Roots!

People cross my path from time to time who wish to study rootwork or proclaim themselves to be rootworkers.  Some I take with a grain of salt, some I throw a handful of salt into their exiting footprints and others intrigue me.   The ones I see as genuine and sincere are those who never [...]



 Selecting a Spiritual Worker When You Want Magickal Assistance

I get many inquiries for magickal and spiritual work but I take on only a few, select cases.  Many people are surprised when I turn down their request or redirect them to another worker or suggest they do the work themselves.  For some workers, the thought of turning down a client’s request for spellwork equates [...]



 Moving Forward After a Break-Up

So, you’ve been dumped…or you’ve done the dumping or maybe you’ve both come to the conclusion this just wasn’t the right time/person/wasn’t going to work.  You’re in pain.  You can’t sleep/eat/focus/breathe.  Your head wants to move on but your heart won’t let you.  What’s going on my friend isn’t just the end of a relationship, [...]



 Candles – not just for lighting

I’ve loved candles all my life.  Big candles, small candles, church candles.  One of the few things I liked about going to church as a child was lighting candles.  Either we would stay after mass or, in special circumstances, go on a daily basis and light a candle in front of a particular saint to [...]



 You Get What You Pay For or Why The Rise of the Internet Teacher is a Bad Thing

I see much discussion these days about occult/magic teachers and who is best/cheapest/easiest.  Unfortunately, most of the discussion is focused on internet teachers – those who own forums, offer online course, video courses, telecourses…rarely do I see anyone ever recommend a particular person whose workshop is not to be missed or a teacher who must [...]



 A Day in the Life Federal Hill, Providence, Rhode Island

I was taught from an early age to look for signs, symbols, omens, patterns…folk methods of divination handed down by the Breton French Celtic, the Irish/Scot Celtic and the Germanic people who raised me as their own. Today was an interesting day for sure…a gentleman resembling a D & D wizard came into my Federal [...]



 Reaching Your Roots: Calling Up the Voice of Your Ancestors

No matter what your spiritual or magical path, honoring your ancestors will only benefit you and help you to reach your goals in life.  The DNA of your ancestors is what you are made of and it is my belief that many of the memories that people call “past life” memories is actually DNA memory [...]



 Crystals and Stones

A lot of workers diss the use of crystals and stones as “New Age” but stones are mentioned by name in the old testament and have been used long before the common era for metaphysical purposes. Stones are natural artifacts, they come out of the ground same as herbs and roots and they have a [...]



 Do You Believe In Magic?

Do you believe in magic?  Folk magic, ceremonial magic, black magic, wishful thinking, all have their roots in the human desire to make changes using outside forces.  But believing in magic and understanding its limitations are sometimes two very separate and far apart things.  Many clients come to me, wanting to make serious changes in [...]
