Spells and Magick

Lookie, lookie! My Llewellyn Contributing Author copies have arrived!

This year I am published in the Magical Almanac for the third consecutive year and the Spell-A-Day Almanac for the first time. Blessed Be!

I am grateful to be a member of the Llewellyn family. I find it extremely hopeful and encouraging there are so many who still look to Nature and the Old Ways, for their spiritual nourishment and direction, especially in these trying times.

In the 2017 Magical Almanac, you will find my article “Drumming Up the Sun.” It’s about the Pagan community of Denver, Colorado and our ritual of drumming up the Sun at Red Rocks, for the Winter Solstice. Red Rocks Park has long held a special place in my heart. I am thrilled to have written an article about it.

In the 2017 Spell-A-Day Almanac, you'll find twenty-five spells written by yours truly. I loved writing the spells, I felt like I was writing my own spell book. Some of my favorites are the ones I wrote about the National Parks, Lady Bugs and Samhain.

May my articles along with the other articles and spells, written by some of the most fabulous and magickal people, help to uplift, guide and conjure up goodness on your path.

Paper, Pen and Llewellyn

In my past life I was a scribe.  No one has ever had to tell me this, I know this to be true within my own being.

I am passionate about all things that deal with writing.  I love new journals, the smell of paper and fine writing utensils.  Keeping a journal is as breath is to my lungs.

That is why I am so excited to announce I am under contract with Llewellyn Worldwide Publishing!  My first article will be published in the 2015 Witches' Companion.

Can you say stoked, floating on air, dancing on the ceiling?!  Truly this a manifestation of a life long dream and a manifestation of the Goddess, in whom I live, move and my have my being.

To further add to the joy and excitement, I received my contract on my birthday.  Oh blessed be!

I follow the signs and omens.  Over and over again, the signs and omens told me the Wheel would turn and things would come right.  Sometimes that was hard to believe when dark days and doubts clouded my thinking.  Perhaps you too have felt that way.  You know something good is coming, but it seems everything conspires to test your faith and patience.  In the world of magick when a spell is working we must be still, silent and wait.  Oh how hard it is to wait and be silent when your dreams are at work! 

Here's to bright blessings that your dreams may come true as well!
