I used to be a workaholic. I would get up, work at my day job, work during my lunch break and then work when I got home. Late in the evening, I would play video games to quiet my mind.

I didn't know how to give myself a break. I didn't realize how much I was giving away of my own joy and contentedness or how much I was disengaged from my relationships.

And then I burned out. I hit a wall and like the Wile Coyote I hit the ground hard.

And I couldn't get back up.

My creativity was fried. I was exhausted physically, emotionally, creatively and spiritually. Whenever I tried to write or work on a class or do anything else, I found I couldn't do it. I simply had to rest.

So I rested. I recharged. I read books and started taking better care of myself. But even that wasn't enough. I would do it for a bit, think I was ready to get back into my creative projects and discover that I was still so tired, so burned out, so disconnected.

Can you relate to that?

I realized I had to something different, something I had never done before.

I had to winter. I had to go into endarkenment and lay still and silent, allowing myself to rest and let go of all the pressure and stress and anxiety I had been carrying around.

I had to get curious about my burnout and allow it to teach me.

What it taught me was:

❄How to slow down my life in every area and liberate myself from all the shoulds of modern society. ❄How to cultivate a stillness and endarkenment practice that allowed me to make friends with my shadows. ❄How to use underworld work to seed my consciousness and prepare it to go back into the light.

When I took this practice on it changed my life and helped me find the essential grounded practices that have allowed me to cultivate my creativity and freed me from burnout.

On Dec 10th, my latest round of Advanced Inner Alchemy of Wintering is starting. In this 3 month experience, you will get the opportunity to go on an underworld journey guided by me where we will explore the rich depths of endarkenment, the power of stillness, and the liberation of shadow work.

In this interview, S. Connolly and I discuss her book the Alchemy of Goetia and the fascinating research that she did as she explored the alchemical symbols and connections that can be found in the Goetia. We also discuss how these alchemical correspondences can shape our understanding of working with the goetic daemons and the lessons and experiences that occur when they are worked with.

Many years ago I learned how to cultivate the stillness within me and integrate it into my spiritual practice to open the doors of awareness to the luminous imagination of reality.

On December 10th, I invite you to descend into a 3 month journey of endarkenment with me and explore the rich path of stillness and silence as we attune ourselves to the rhythm of winter and allow it to permeate our being.

As we descend into the underworld, we'll explore how to connect with the seasonal energy of winter and use it to lead us into restorative rest and rejuvenation. You will also learn:

❄how to draw on meditative and somatic practices to enhance your mental, spiritual and physical well being. ❄how to cultivate the full potential of your creativity and imagination through the intentional slow down of wintering. ❄how to make friends with your shadows and use them to help you find your light.

We will attune to winter and draw on the season to carry us through darkness to the light.

Ready to go deeper into your spiritual practice?

Longing to make space in your for yourself?

Wanting to still yourself and let go of burnout?

Then come join me on December 10th and let us attune to the power of winter and the endarkenment of the long night.

When most people think of Saturn from an astrological perspective, they treat Saturn as a malefic force, in part of because the classic mythology associated with Saturn and in part because of Saturn being treated as a limiting and binding force. And while it is true that Saturn represents boundaries and limitations and also embodies fear and what happens when we react from fear, I've also discovered that Saturn can be a liberating force, if worked with properly.

Saturn as a planetary influence invites us to examine our relationship with our own limits and boundaries as well as our relationship with fear.

These are heady topics to consider and its not surprising that some people will shy away from them. Who really wants to come up against their own boundaries or limitations? Who wants to do a deep dive into their fears?

This is another article I wrote some time ago about Aspects of Saturn work that involve weaving together and pulling apart realities. At the time I wrote the article I had just begun to explore this facet of Saturnine magic. I have, since that time, become quite adept at this work, using it most recently in August and September of this year to aid in the process of creating a new reality. Original article starts below.

Recently I created a magical painting dedicated to Saturn. when I created it I worked with the wet and dry alchemical essences of lead. It was a powerful magical working, but what happened as a result of that working was even more intriguing and powerful in its own right. I was given the opportunity to take a peek behind the curtains and I got a very different perspective of the interweaving of reality and possibility.

When many people think of Saturn as a planetary energy to work with they think of it in terms of limitations and specifically how obstacles, boundaries, and limitations can get in the way of a person’s journey to achieving specific results. Or perhaps they consider the artful application of limitations and how those limitations can actually be used to create a refined and focused magical work that gets specific results. Certainly these aspects of Saturnic work are true and the planetary energy of Saturn can be worked with in that way.

Your identity is a central point of convergence for space and time, in your life. Your identity creates and influences your experience of space and time, but is also influenced by the way that time and space present themselves in your life. Most people think of time as linear and they are trapped by the tick of the clock, and the monotonous grind of living on someone else’s schedule. Most people think of space as fixed and static, and so only see what is available within the immediate space that is available to them.

The space/time magician knows that time is not inherently linear and that space is much more fluid and flexible than it seems. The key to unlocking the secrets of space and time is identity.

The word intention is thrown around a lot these days, both in magical spiritual communities and in general. I think it’s become a fairly loaded word in its own right, and yet its not a word going away anytime soon. I’ve lately been thinking a lot about the role of intention in magical work and why its so important to look at the shadow of one’s intentions.

I can have good intentions, and yet nonetheless the impact of those intentions can be anything but good. When I apply the word intention to magic, it suggests that there is a direction or a focus for that magical work. I am seeding the magic with my intentions to manifest a specific reality. That’s all well and good, and yet what else is embedded within that intention?

To get the answer to that question comment below and I'll dm you.

The other day I had someone share with me that they didn't have TIME for a space/time magic class.

I'll admit I giggled when I heard that response and yet I get it.

Making time for a magical class in a busy, packed life, with kids, career, and other obligations can seem impossible.

It doesn't help that we have specific myths about time which tell us the following:

"There's only so much time in a day"

"I can't make time"

"I can't control time" The thing is...you have more control over your time AND space than you realize.

I know this because I live a very busy and productive life and yet I am able to regularly do all the activities I want to do and while one reason is because of time management skills, another reason is because I have a unique relationship with space and time that I've developed through my magical practice.

And I want to show you how to create a similar relationship, with all the benefits it brings:

✨Imagine being able to make time when you need it to do whatever pleases you.

✨Discover how to expand time outside of the linear perspective you've been taught.

✨Explore all the possibilities available to you.

All of this and more can be available to you, but it requires that you make some time for a class on Advanced Space/time Magic.

Here's the thing...I'm closing the doors on Thursday afternoon, and I won't be making this class available again for another TWO years.

So if you're thinking about taking this class, now is the TIME to make a commitment!

When you sign up for this class, you' be learning the following:

✨How to connect with cycles of time and space to get better results.

✨How to work with space/time spirits to expand and contract time

✨How to step in and out of different timelines and work with the alternate versions of yourself.

✨How to use the power of repetition and iteration to create a life with more space and time for what you really want.

If you still feel like you don't have time for a space/time magic class, I understand...but if you're ready to change your relationship with time, I want you to comment below.

In this episode, I pull back the curtain and share my insights around spirit work and why spirits want to connect with us. I share what they give and what they get from our connection and discuss why this can be so helpful in working with spirits in general.

Doubt is one of those experiences and emotions that can feel insidious because of how it shows up in our lives. When you throw doubt into the mix with magical workings, it can undermine the effectiveness of your magic and make you question what you are doing. Yet, we all, myself included experience doubt sometimes and I actually think its a healthy sign of a person’s maturity around their spiritual practice when they can acknowledge they feel doubt around what they are doing.

I recently experienced a feeling of doubt around a magical working and I’ve been practicing for 31 years. I share that because you can have a lot of experience and still feel doubt. The question is…what do you with that doubt?

In the linear world most people live in, life is a boring sequence of moments where you wake up, get ready for work, go to work, come home and try to numb yourself for a couple hours and then go back to bed and rinse and repeat this cycle of your life, day in and day out each week. The two day break of a weekend is never enough and at the back of your mind is a question:

"Is this the best life has to offer to me?"

In the non-linear world of space/time magic, the answer to that question is found by busting out of your linear comfort zone and questioning the reality that has been presented to you, in order to discover the possibilities that have been hidden away.

On October 17th I am going to take you on a journey through space and time where I'll be sharing with you how to unlock the imaginative potential of the future and past and use that to transform the present. In this 4 week course you will learn The latest space/time magic techniques I've been developing, including...

🌟How to use repetition and iteration to increase the momentum of your magic. 🌟How to unlock the spiral of time and access the hidden possibilities contained within. 🌟How to access the mysteries of space and use them for manifestation. 🌟How to walk from one time line to another. 🌟How to connect with your future self and get their advice and experience.

Space and time has aligned for me to offer this class again, but I only offer it once a year, so if you want to learn space/time magic or improve on what you already know now is the moment you've been waiting for.

If you're seeing this message through the algorithm, then there's synchronicity here. Take this opportunity and take a quantum leap into advanced space time magic.

I did a magical working a while back where I created an artistic sigil for the Daemon Glasya-Labolas and then paired it up with a modern day sigil for a practical magic working. I came up with this pairing as an experiment with spirit work, where the spirit would activate the sigil, instead of me activating it.

I still created and charged the sigil, but then placed it beside the sigil for Glasya and allowed both sigils to marinate with each other, creating a blend of the Daemon’s energy with the spell sigil. This blend created a specific association where the spell sigil could be activated by the spirit and fired off.
