February 11, 2026 : Tonight's omen brought to you by Eir, Freyja, and Artemis through the Goddess Guidance Oracle by Doreen Virtue. In the beginning of the ritual, I began to shuffle and three cards jumped out: Rhiannon, Artemis, Freyja: Now is the time to be bold with your magik. You are protected. Freyja was overshadowed by Artemis who condemned those who do generational curses--saying that if innocents are harmed by fear and hate, the caster would be visited by Artemis and The Cailleach. Generational curses makes you no better than ICE--bigots are cowards, regardless the side you think you're on. Then I drew three cards from Eir: Cycles, Past Lives (this life), Transformation: Your country is going through shadow work. The roots are exposed--fleshy earth ripped from infected roots. A great healing is happening, even though it doesn't feel like it. The infection is exposed--Warriors and Healers are working. Warriors fighting and Warriors protecting Healers who're ampu...

 A month into the Pre-Clergy Program and last week, I finally got the motivation to start reading, studying, and doing the writings!  I was hoping to get started right away, but then I got hit with ADHD and a little bit of Imposter Syndrome.  That Imposter is just shadow work to explore.  I explored it.  My Imposter asked what did I have to offer to ADF or to anyone else?  I was a poor speaker and a college drop out, who the hell could I help as a clergy person? Good questions, honestly.   What are my strengths?  What are my weaknesses?  What could be improved? I love writing rituals and I love performing them for my community.  I love teaching folks about the Kindreds as I know and interact with Them, and passing on Their messages.  I also know that my ritual writing needs a lot of work.  I attend others rituals and pay attention and learn.  I've taken writing workshops, ritual writing workshops, and I've read books....

 Sometime this morning, I woke up from an intense dream--second one this week and with the same theme!  Except this time, I woke up in a panic--heart pounding, quick breathing.  But the dream wasn't nightmarish--not really.   I went to one of my favorite local spiritual shops called The Magical Druid to see my local grove--Three Cranes.  Then suddenly I wasn't feeling well.  It was like I was being possessed without my consent and I couldn't remove the entity.  I couldn't because it wasn't a stranger coming into me from the outside, but an entity within me, emerging .  Maybe I've been watching too many Alien movies lately?   Prometheus and Covenant are good, though!  An entity not laid inside of me by a devious synth, an airborne virus, or a face-r*ping alien.  Something part of me.  Something that IS me. At one point, one of the cranes--a warm, plus sized woman with shoulder length brown hair (not Arch Druid Rev. ...

Intense dream this morning: Hubs and I went to a ritual by Byron Ballard. She was dressed like a whimsical dancer. She moved and instructed and many of us in the audience started to dance with her. Hubs stayed in the back, but I joined, entranced. Then Byron would single people out and give them a command, which involved doing something friendly to another dancer. When people did, we celebrated. Reminded me of Jester's and mischievous Fae. Joyful. Soon a whimsical costume would appear on that person. When it came to me, Byron told me to kiss a handsome guy with a round face and short brown hair. He was cute, but I said no because I didn't know him (it had nothing to do with my husband). Byron responded silently, disappointed. The rest were disappointed, too.  As was he.  It made sense what I said, but he felt left out--why didn't I want to?  What was wrong with him?   Nothing.  He was just a stranger.   Then my dance was different fro...

Rabbit Rabbit!   Blessed Full Moon!  Blessed Midwinter/Imbolc!       For both events, I'm going to pull a card from Moonology and Seasons of the Witch: Imbolc! Sister Moon, what's your message? "Stay inside, stay warm.  No reason to go anywhere." I've drawn, New Moon in Taurus - Prosperity lies ahead.  Outside of paychecks and saving on gas or possible wreckage just from staying indoors.  Perhaps a surprise settlement check. The Deer Mother and Winter Hag Cailleach say, through the Imbolc deck:   "Does well to listen." I pulled, Black Bear - "Your existence is the resistance.  All you must do is accept the power awaiting your arrival."  Personal Power.  Combat fear and hate with compassion.  Protect yourself, too. I feel Cailleach hitting on something that I saw on Bluesky--a witch calling for people to not only curse ICE but also their children.  Generational curses, which always annoy me.  It's like those...

 My current life's work over the last few years has been chronologically organizing all of my photos albums, as best as I can, because family and past mes did not think dates were important, so now me just wants to travel back in time and smack em all.  I'll be leaving notes for my descendants to LABEL THEIR PHOTOS.  Older Yous and future gens will thank you, especially if they're anal and (family) Tree Keepers like me. Yesterday I was working from 1600s all the way up to 2002, until my cat broke my hyperfocus by laying on my photo album! " Hello, slave.  I'm here NOW ."  Can't say that I was the happiest Au-DHDer, but I had also been working on this project for about 12 hours, give or take.  Jimmy V was tired of being ignored and shooed away.  Also I'm sure she was putting her scent all over my albums.  Funny enough the pages she's laying on in the pictures are of old dogs and cats that I used to have when in the late 90's early 00's: two ...

 Remember how I'd signed up for a ritual on Feb 17th, and that I was going to focus on Frigg and Fire Grounding?  Well, on Monday, my Hearth Kindreds got really loud!  Encouraging me to sign up for last night's High Day ritual.  And I did.  I used the ritual that I wrote for Frigg and edited into one celebrating Midwinter and honoring my Hearth Kindreds.  All while I edited and wrote, Frigg chimed in either through simple channeling or possession.   Opening the Rite, I said: " On this day of Jan 28th, we're celebrating Midwinter and honoring the All Hearth Kindreds–just know that Frigg is standing in the front, leading the inspiration for this ritual.  But I see Them all present, sitting in a grand room, around a huge warm, crackling fire.  Many of them doing various fiber arts, mending things, writing, reading, drinking, relaxing, laughing and socializing with one another.  Entities of many, if not all, cultures, together in one pe...
