Homage to the Old Ways

Hello to all the cunning beautiful folk sharing the cosmic love here with me today!


As many of you know I’ve been in a creative hiatus deep in the wild woods with the birds, rocks, trees and animals. Now I am present even more in my ancestral gifts of witchcraft with the return home to sacred lands & my birth name of Rachael.


Throughout these last five years i have been in the metamorphosis of menopause. I have navigated intense yet simultaneously interesting challenges whilst showing up in my online business to support myself & my family as a solitary witch in business.


I have witnessed many things change as I have observed with more mature, psychic eyes the world around me. I have felt the somatic majik within my body elevated to a different expression that does not require the constant hustle or false accolades of algorithms as I shape-shift in my older being.


Many times this year I wandered the rainforest embracing the potent magick of solitude whilst communing with ancient kin. Learning new ways of being a menopausal woman carrying her medicine bundle on the edge of the wild yet still of this world.


It is a quiet resolute trust in my own internal compass & embodiment of my ancestors as a Keeper of Star Lore and the old ways that I walk this well-worn trodden path of my foremothers.


This past year the Saturnian tests have been immense and brought me to my knees at times in humbleness & tears. I have been crushed by the mortar & pestle of despair and then cast to the wind with the ashes of my lessons.


However I have risen with a wisdom so embedded in my bones that I am solid as a rock. I have sat with the grandmothers as they blew holy smoke over my third eye - cleansing & clearing the way forward.


“I am a heretic in my body & my being.”


In great trust & gratitude as the wheel of the year turns … thank you for being here 🖤
