I am a village witch, and what this means to me is that the magic I make and the rituals I share are simple, accessible, and made for everybody. No secret rooms or hierarchies: village witchcraft is by and for the people.
The theme of power With is foundational to my work. I don’t see myself as having power Over my clients, where I know more and so get to tell them what to do. I see myself as sharing the tools and guidance I have in order to empower them, and at the end of the day, I respect and recognize that they are making the choices for their life. (If you want to read more about the “4 Types of Power,” check out this link.)
Lately, the message I’ve been channeling around what we collectively need is simplicity. I described it like this to a client: at the center is You, and energy flows through you but you stay constant, an anchor. All the parts of your life - your lists, your desires, your projects - are drawn to you by gravitational pull, and continue to revolve around you. You don’t have to reach out and grab at them. This effortless dance between you and your life arises when you refocus on your breath, your nervous system, your center.
Part of it is having systems that will support you by reminding you of what you need to do, so you don’t need to hold it all all the time. This is something I support my clients with.
Lately, when I feel chaotic, I’ll step away, allow things to fall into gravity, and return a few minutes later. A few rounds of this, and I can solve a problem that seemed too messy to solve.
For example, this week I updated my Patreon and Youtube channel.
Here’s the problem as it arose: I was making a Beltane meditation and community Tarot reading, intending them for Patreon, and I felt clear that these things should be accessible to the public on Youtube. The support those videos offer is something I want to share for free, and is a a good way for new folks to experience my work.
I quickly got lost in the specifics: I put out a lot of seasonal content, how will I organize it?? I would chew on this for a while, and then when I felt the thoughts circling in my mind spin out of gravitational pull, I’d step away, get back in my body, and come back later.
In doing so, I figured out a plan I feel good about (see above).
Happy Beltane! May 1, or May Day, is also known as Beltane. I hope you find some resources on my Patreon and Youtube channel to help support you at this time of year.
