October schedule: Questing for power
I am writing this from the Scottish Borders, a home from home for me, where I currently have the added bonus of a very loving canine companion as I wander along a favourite river walk. This morning, before Storm Amy came blowing in, Ruffin and I enjoyed a long walk along the river, high and…

Healing and changes at the new moon
The cycle of the moon is one of the natural prompts in my life, something I’ve been paying attention to and drawing on for the last 20 years or so. When I was a young witch in training, I attended group rituals at every full moon – a practice I kept up for years. I…
