The world is a little chaotic this week, so we need to do what we can to ground ourselves, sooth our souls, and care for our community. Choosing authenticity over keeping things cute is a power move but can also be taxing. Take time to listen to your inner wisdom (we have several Great Goddesses of Wisdom standing by), eat some carbs, and make sure you keep a "time out" session up your sleeve if things go sideways. https://www.patreon.com/MeaganAngus Food Not Bombs National Network of Abortion F...

So many Holy beginnings this week! Fall Equinox, Rosh Hashana, Navaratri, Mundis Cereris, just to name a few. We step through another gateway into the Dark Half of the Year, and we begin to shed skins and change faces as we head into our new forms for the next portion of our journey around The Wheel. Ivy, Two of Swords, and Air divination are all helpers this week in this work. www.meaganangus.com https://www.patreon.com/MeaganAngus Mabon Class on Youtube https://prochoice.org/...

WITCH'S THANKSGIVING - MABON - SECOND HARVEST Heathens! The Wheel Turns... The Wheel of the Year continues to turn for Pagans with the Quarter Sabbat Fall Equinox also known as Mabon. The high point of the Sun's arc over The Wheel is done and with that completion, we see the fullness of The Harvest come to fruition at this time of year. We have reached Fall Equinox, the Quarter-Day festival marking the half way point between Summer and Winter Solstice. Also known as Second Harvest and Witch's Th...

This week's 'cast is a shorty because we have our next Mabon class coming up quick! This Moon brings us upheaval in our world events and nebulous encounters in our private lives. Don't get lost in the haze, do allow the parts of you that are hidden to speak. We take a look at The Eleusinian Mysteries and the opportunity to think back on old forms of self. Change is inevitable, what can you harvest from your labor?

Great Goddesses like Yemoja, Oshun, Virgin Mary, Holy Sophia, Artemis, and Themis want us to understand how much we have cultivated in ourselves to be who we are and where we are, in spite of all the wild sh*t this world has thrown at us. We carry great wisdom, talent, strength and capacity, and it's not by accident or chance. We are who we are because we have grown ourselves, like a great verdant garden. But let's not get it twisted, Mercury stations Retrograde this week and our powers of infor...

As we move into the final weeks of Summer, during Virgo season, we can feel a little overblown, spent, hungover from the excess of Summer. A hermitage is just what the soul needs. Getting back to the personal, the daily routine, the simple self-care elements, the personal rituals of life. Also, it’s hard to believe this magical time will end, but the elder in us knows The Wheel Turns, and Summer will end. Begin tending to the body, recalling the self-work like routine that is so needed in Fall a...

Wow! We have SO MANY harvest festivals this week! But also holy days dedicated to The Ancestors who live underground pushing up what we harvest, the Water deities that support of Harvest, and the Wisdom Keepers that help us protect the harvest. Odin and Virgo are front and center in the deepest symbology of Lughnasadh insistence on maturation and leadership, with all the sacrifice and reward that comes along. Our astrology supports this work too. We are asked to call ourselves out and in on what...

This week asks us to consider the Shadow Work that comes up when we embrace Power. Can we handle being so close to The Sun? How do we handle the strain when our edges get a bit crispy? We can work with plant helper Hazelnut Tree, Tarot helper the Six of Wands, and Gods and Archetypes like Puck, Volos, and Hercules to remind us the fault is not in our stars... www.meaganangus.com https://www.patreon.com/MeaganAngus More on Volos (Veles): https://lukomoryefolklore.wordpress.com/2020/02/03/volos-ve...

Hey Heathens! We Witches have some beautiful festivals this week and some crunchy astrology. BE GENTLE WITH YOURSELF THIS WEEK. Festivals like the Islamic Hajj and deities like Castor and Pollux remind us to stay close to friends and family, and to hold each other up. Elegba-Bara stands with us at the Crossroads where we must take a moment to examine - truly - the road we're on, the Path we're meant to be on, and the roads less traveled. And our astrology asks us: can we push through programming...

This is a week that brings us lots of opportunities to fight for what we believe in. But not all of us are built to be warriors. So what can we do? So many things. Laughter, movement, and calling ourselves out on our "main character" tendencies is vital to doing the Work needed for The Collective. Holy days like the anniversary of the Stonewall riots and the Heliacal rising of the fixed star Sirius, aka the Egyptian Goddess Sopdet, oversee our process of stepping into our new power and a new cyc...

A shorty episode this week because, life. We take a look at the funk-eee astrology of this week. TLDR - CHOOSE YOUR BATTLES WISELY - you can always walk away, don't get pulled into BS that is not worth the sacrifice of your time or energy. We take a look at the Greek festival of Boufonia, a festival about passing the buck after murder (ehem). We also look at Rusalka's Week, restoring the (currently) evil entities to their former fertilizing and dewy glory. www.meaganangus.com https://www.patreon...

This week gives us a moment to get ready for the maelstrom of astrology next week. Virgo Moon encourages us to get our homework done, fold the laundry and do the grocery run before sh*t hits the fan. A river of holidays brings focus to mariners and maritime festivals, with fixed stars like Capella, Rigel and Columba lighting the way. Solar Goddesses like Epona, Mater Matuta, and Sunniva all step forward to usher in the approaching Summer Solstice. www.meaganangus.com https://www.patreon.com/Meag...

To make it through the Work that is before us, we must invite in play, magic, and rest.

And are you accepting the responsibility of setting a badass example for folks coming up?

“I am not afraid. I was born to do this.” – Jeanne D’Arc Beltane season is here! Nearly every group under the broad umbrella “Pagan” celebrates Beltane , stretching back into the ancient past. The central symbolism of this festival is fertility and virility. In other words, bringing opposites together and having some friction occur that produces a thing. In the beginning of the holy season, it is about the binary of opposition, but as we move into the later half of Beltane, it becomes about the ...
