The Spirit of Air

Allow yourself a special invigorating Air experience. On a clear day, get into a comfortable position lying on the grass, in a field or just sitting in a park, looking up into the spacious canvas of the Element Air. Relax your body, breathe slowly, and inhale and exhale deeply, while acknowledging the Air flowing into your lungs. Continue to relax […]

Visions of Air

I view the daytime sky as a canvas of magnificent clouds in incredible shapes, sizes, and hues. Our ancient ancestors believed that the Gods and Goddesses rode upon the clouds. In these gossamer winged chariots, they rode displaying their power for all to see and interpret. In ancient Hebrew mythology, the chariots became the winged Cherub with their ancient God […]

Many years ago, while studying for my first Degree in the Gardnerian tradition of Witchcraft, I was relaxing on my couch […]

Ancient pyramid texts claim that she was the mother of Nehebkau, a snake God who protected the pharaoh from snakebites.

The Goddess Selket

Who is the Goddess Selket? Well, she traveled through millennia and splashed into our consciousness in one remarkable moment, when the British archaeologist Howard Carter took his long awaited peek into the tomb of King Tut and said, “I see wonderful things.” It was at that moment when her rebirth was assured. There she stood in this long forgotten tomb […]
