For the second of my blogs celebrating Pride Month, Gay Spirituality and the LGBTQ+ Community I wanted to explore “LGBTQ+ Archetypes” or those gods and goddesses who are recorded as having LGBTQ+ natures. Although I am sure the list below will contain some deities that you – dear reader – are less familiar with I am sure too that some…
The first of my Gay Spirituality LGBTQ+ blogs this month (June 2021) in honour of Pride month focuses on the Pride Flag. Sometimes called the Gay Pride Flag, the Rainbow Flag or the LGBT Pride Flag it has evolved and changed since its creation into that flag depicted at the header of this post but I want to start with…
In Alchemy the vessel in which the Prima Materia (prime matter – the thing that is being changed) is placed is called the Alembic – other wise known as “the Philosophic Egg”. The Alembic has a rounded exterior mirroring in many ways the shape of the Yoni – the sacred gateway to the magic of the Mother of Creation –…
Yule – the 21st of December – is a VERY special date in the Pagan calendar! It is a time in which the light of spring is called back at the point of greatest darkness to the lands frozen by winter! It is the day upon which the “child of promise” – the new Solar and Oak King is born…

This week the world heard about the success of the first possible vaccine for Covid19. For some (myself included) this was cause for jubilation – for others concern. Vaccines are a contentious topic – particularly within the spiritual community – and the rapid development and approval of this one has caused more than a few eye brows to be raised.…

Energy can be found in a variety of different locations … in a variety of different vibrations and frequencies from the energy found in crystals and stones to the energy found in the forest and the sea. However each different…
As we journey on the spiritual path we are encouraged to be and do many different things in order to be … more spiritual! We are encouraged to be non judgemental – to be compassionate – to acknowledge that all are one – having come from the same source.

I thought it was time to lighten the mood and so todays blog is a TV show review/recommendation!

Set in an alternate reality where witches are not only real but valued within society the premise of the show focuses on…
