What is Lectio Divina? (Step-by-Step Soul-Centered Practice)…

I NEED YOU TO WATCH THIS FILM!

I'll be in D.C. next week asking YOUR members of Congress to pass the Big Cat Public Safety Act.  They need to see this film in order to know how the big cat crisis began and what is needed to solve it.  If they click the link below to the movie and see that hundreds of thousands of Americans have watched, liked and shared the film, I think we can get them to watch it too. This is a riveting film, so if you can play YouTube on your TV,…

The basis of this particular study is to create a method of ritual, and I had done this prior with none other than Crowley’s Coffee Invocation.

Over the weekend pictures started flying around social media: the stage at CPAC was in the shape of the Odal rune. And while there is nothing nefarious about runes – they are sacred to Heathens and to many other people – as always, context matters.

And the…

If there is any advice I would universally give to every person, regardless of who they are, it is this: walk your own path.

Walk your own damn path.

Don’t walk someone else’s path. Don’t walk the path your parents predestined for you just because you feel emotionally indebted to…

A bit of local controversy arose late last week when news reports began to surface around comments made by Eric Hogue, who is mayor of Wylie, Texas, a small town that used…

So, as we near the end of April there is a Spring celebration coming up — Beltane and Walpurgisnacht (Walpurgis Night). Today, I have decided to take a look at Walpurgisnacht. What is the history…

Venezuelans are increasingly turning to witchcraft practices for relief from the socialist country’s devastating humanitarian crisis, the Venezuelan outlet La Patilla reported Thursday.

According to the report, the situation has become so severe that many people are now turning to sorcerers who can provide some…

Politicians backed by extractive industry interests are undertaking some of the most serious threats ever seen in the four decades of this landmark conservation law.

Remember playing Chutes and Ladders when you were a kid? The rules are simple: spin a spinner (or roll a die) and move your piece that number of spaces. If you land on a ladder, then your piece "climbs up" the ladder and advances several spaces; if you land on a chute, then your piece "slides down" and loses…

Floating lightness or warm and fuzzy: which connection do you desire?

As cannabis becomes legalized in more areas of the world, now is the ideal time to compare and contrast it with the totally…

Meditation, you’ve come a long way, baby.

I don’t mean just to be glib when I invoke the famous Virginia Slims cigarettes tagline, which debuted in 1968 to take advantage of the surging women’s movement. Because, really: when a global fast-food…

“I’d jump in front of a bullet if it meant I’d save someone else.”

The words stopped me in my tracks.

“Please, don’t be a hero. You’re my only son,” was all I could say.

I’d never heard something so brave, or terrifying from my little boy. To be fair, my “little boy” is a man now. He’ll be 18 in a couple of weeks. Still, he’s my…
