What Happens When You Let the Moon Lead ~ Notes on a Year of Lunar Practice

I’ve been tracking the moon seriously for a little over a year now.

Not casually. Not the thing where you notice it’s full and light a candle and call it lunar practice. I mean tracking: the phase, the sign, the aspects it’s making to other planets, what I’m feeling in my body and my practice at each point in the cycle. A full month of deliberate record-keeping, repeated twelve times.

Baba Yaga ~ The Wild Old Woman at the Edge of the World

Every culture has a story about what happens when you go too far into the forest.

Not the forest that is merely trees and darkness and the absence of paths – but the deeper forest, the one that represents in the symbolic logic of the human imagination the place beyond the reach of ordinary rules. Where the social structures that tell you who you are do not follow. Where the protections of the known world fall away. Where what you encounter depends entirely on what you are, stripped of everything circumstantial.

Building CraftTalk in the Rain ~ What It Feels Like to Do the Work You’re Actually Meant to Do

When I started building this in 2024 I thought I was building a website. A platform. A content hub for practitioners who needed better resources than what was out there.

Why I Left Colorado ~ A Decision the Cards Made Before I Did

I want to talk about the move.

Not the logistics of it – the boxes, the drive, the way you have to leave a place before you understand what it was to you. I want to talk about the months before it, when I already knew and was still pretending I didn’t.

Colorado was good to me in the ways that places can be good to you. The mountains were real. The altitude changed something in the way I thought. My practice deepened there in the specific way that happens when you have enough space and enough silence – there was room for it to expand into. But somewhere in the middle of 2025, something started to shift.

Sekhmet ~ She Who Is Powerful ~ A Guide to the Eye of Ra and the Lady of Flame

The desert heat is not metaphor. It is her breath.She comes with the sun at its most brutal. The white, annihilating noon of the Egyptian summer when the sand radiates upward and the air itself seems to burn and there is nowhere to hide and nothing to do but submit to it. She comes with the simoom, the poison wind that moves across the desert like a living thing, carrying plague and fever and the smell of something ancient and without mercy. She comes when the lioness bursts from the reeds at the watering hole, and the world reduces itself, in a single shocked instant, to the irreducible fact of power.
