It has been awhile since I have posted. I have been very busy with life: I am going to school, publishing a book, lecture frequently, and help take care of my family. Nothing is simple. Yet I have felt the need to return to blogging; sharing my thoughts and aspirations. Helping to demonstrate research on various topics. Also, to transmit oracular knowledge to the communities at large. After all, that is my contract with Hekate and Dionysos: serve the community.

School

I decided to go back to school to earn my Bachelor’s degree in Alternative Medicine. What caught my eye were the nutrition classes I had. I believe that is where I should go. I am planning – when I graduate – to go for my Master’s in Public Health with a concentration in Nutrition. I feel that is where I belong. With the encouragement of one of my professors, I will also be looking into Herbology. I have a background in Allopathic (read: Western) Medicine. So I have that knowledge to help me make certain decisions on whether some alternative protocols are called for, or allopathic, or both (complementary medicine). This education provides an excellent opportunity for me, and I feel as though I belong.

Lecture

I lecture frequently at a local Unity church along with making videos and being interviewed by various folks. In upcoming posts, I will link to the videos and see what your feedback is. The way the lecturing works is this: I am part of a interfaith rotation of speakers. We are all given abstract themes (e.g. forgiveness, darkness, faith, etc.), and we can talk about it from our points of view both individually and what our various religious beliefs have to say. Suffice it to say, as a witch I am the odd one out. I do my best to deliver snippets of what I believe in accordance from my faith. However, as in all things Neopagan and witchy, there is no popedom and we are not orthodox. Therefore, only I can speak for myself. I use that disclaimer a lot before I lecture. I also, while at it, oracle people who need healing or prayers for something. As an oracle (not a psychic), I find these opportunities a welcome breath that sets me apart from others.

Book

I’d like to inform you all that I am having a book published via Llewellyn Publications. The title is “StrixCraft: Ancient Greek Magic for the Modern Witch.” I am really excited with this project. It’s been a year and a half in the works. Writing a book is never simple. The editing process is a pain, and the words you want to say almost never come out of right. Thank heavens for editors. The book can be preordered, as it is released on October 8th of this year, 2020. The link is below.

Thank you dear readers for having patience with me as I have not blogged in quite some time. Over the course of the next several weeks, I will work on doing so regularly. There is so much to talk about. Thank you again.

Eirene kai Hugieia!
