Scorpio is a fixed water sign. The water element is all about passion, emotion, SOUL. It’s the energy that moves in us. That clears away the debris. That rocks us to sleep. That blesses us.

“Let your hook always be cast; in the pool where you least expect it, there will be a fish.” I thought of this quote today, and in my mind I remembered it as a Japanese Haiku. When I looked the quote up and found out it was Ovid I have to admit I was disappointed. […]
SAFE SPACE CLEANSING BATH Call in your spirits and your guardians. Light candles (white for clearing, green for heart mending, blue for healing, sun yellow to sooth the mind). Burn sage or mugwort or cedar, or your clearing fumigant of choice. Infuse a cup of warm coconut milk with a pinch of cinnamon and clove […]

When I perform a divination, […]
I had severe asthma as a child , so bad my lips would turn blue and you could see my heart beating through my purple unicorn shirt from across the room. Sometimes I’d have to go to the hospital and be hooked up to an oxygen tank. The asthma found it’s way into my body […]

I found myself sobbing in the car as I was driving to my final day of healer training with one of my mentors, David Elliott, this past weekend. The work has a way of bringing stuff up. I was triggered when I, for some mysterious reason, started thinking about what a shitty waitress I was […]
