Descending into November

Allow yourself to soften into this season of stillness. Resist the urge to scurry. Stretch your fingers out to your own life. See what you notice when you give yourself time. Quiet now. Let drifts of dreams appear through the mist on the horizon. Greet yourself arriving at the crossroads. Lean in. Reach out. Listen. Here you are.Happy November and welcome to the Cauldron of the Crossroads and this week’s Rituals of Returning newsletter! This issue explores our allies for November. We’ve also updated the shop with some special edition OOAK (one of a kind) goddesses!This week's magic:A Book of Magic Days is now available for pre-order in both paperback and hardcover!

This approach has its place, but it keeps me in “sacrifice mode”--scanning everything I love for what I can bear to lose.In October, as I prepared for the new year, I switched it up and asked myself: What do I already KNOW I still want to do?I made a big YES list for myself, everything I never even consider letting go of, things that are not even close to being on the table when it comes to deciding what to choose. This was surprisingly liberating and released me from feeling both overloaded and sacrificial. Once the clear yeses were written down, everything else became clearer too. If something wasn’t showing up on my yes list, that was probably the thing to let go of. I didn’t have to wrestle with my spirit over what to choose and what to release, making the yes list did the sorting for me.So if you’re facing your own Mountain of Too Much, I’d invite you to try this too. Write down your clear yeses: the absolutes, the essentials, the things you know you’re keeping. Then see what’s not on it.I’m carrying this idea over into a new comprehensive, interactive project I’m working on for the Goddess Magic Mystery School next year. Can’t wait to tell you more about it soon!Life’s Bits and Pieces:Today, I set down the mask and honor all my faces, inviting my whole self to the table. I forgive myself. I watch how the leaf waits for the right moment to let go. I wonder with the wind as it wanders by. I take a deep breath of freedom and a long exhale of ease. I return to center and allow devotionto guide me.Currently reading: (to self) Sipsworth—I was reading something different, but this book caught my eye on the book club table at the library when I went to this month’s writers club and it is so good. A sweet, heart-touching tale about an elderly, grieving woman who makes friends with a mouse.(to self) Fallen City—this was what I was reading when I found Sipsworth at the library. I’m having trouble keeping my attention on it and keep falling asleep while reading, necessitating nightly backtracking to figure out where I am and what is happening. A little too much political intrigue as a the focus—reminds me of all the Senate stuff in the Star Wars prequels. Not the biggest fan. About star crossed lovers, one who is part of the rebellion and one who is one of the “Magistrates” in a struggling city.(listening to by self) When Among Crows—a fantasy set in Chicago about a Polish immigrant on a mission to find Baba Yaga and his interactions with the hidden underworld of non-human creatures that move among us. The book’s themes are drawn extensively from Slavic folklore (including zmora and strzyga and banshees/llorona). It is very interesting, though grim, and has a small male-male romance subplot. By Veronica Roth of Divergent fame and while the grimmness feels familiar from that series, the style and subject feels very different and I almost wouldn’t believe it was her.(listening to with Tanner): Prince Caspian—just finished yesterday and about to start the Dawn Treader. Descending into the Cauldron of the Crossroads: November’s Allies (Garnet and Mugwort)Reminder: May you be patient with yourself. May you step into the flow. May you listen to the dream time, and may you pay attention to the deep lessons found in your roots and your bones.This month we step into the Cauldron of the Crossroads, one of four cauldron points in our wheel of the year, with the theme of Descend. It's a time for harvesting the wisdom of the year, making choices, and letting go: integrating everything this year has held into your cauldron of being, and forgiving what didn't come to fruition.Our supplemental allies for the month are Mugwort and Garnet.Note: expanded edition is here.Questions to consider:How am I coming undone?What is unraveling for me?What gifts am I taking with me on my descent?What am I hoping to learn in the darkness of retreat?What do I need to forgive about this year?What didn’t come to fruition?What am I tending and carefully guarding as we head into winter?Affirmations to consider:I savor the flavor of my own life.I pause at the crossroads to contemplate. I choose with discernment and intention. I am willing to set things down. I step into the flow.I unclench my life. The magic is in my hands. I am open to wild enchantment. Quietly, now,let the sparkin the lantern catchand shine.Carry it into the darkness. Bring a legacy of connection,how shadows can playwith light,how we can inviteour own whole selvesto the table to dream and do,to feel and falter,to love and let go. Bless this spaceof possibilitywith what you carryand what you long for. Open your hands. Blow a kiss to the moon. Soften your edgesand inhabit the wholenessat the center. Take a pauseto sit with who you are. Listening to your own lifechanges everything.Much love,Molly, Mark, + Family This is a public episode.

This workshop is free and this is the Zoom link to join in!We are on the threshold of Samhain, honoring endings and welcoming mystery. Standing in the doorway, we make our commitment and allow our own lives to charm and delight us. We pause here, honoring what was and welcoming what will be. We thank our bones for carrying us. We turn in wide circles beneath the waning moon, letting our gratitude fly free to bless the darkening night.Happy October and welcome to this week’s Rituals of Returning newsletter! This issue explores our allies for the month.

I was honored to contribute to a new anthology from Pantheon Press called "In the Deep," poems of resilience and grief. The book was released in print this week!This is How We PrayIn a recent Live community practice, I shared a quote from Mary Oliver:“So this is how you swim inward.So this is how you flow outwards.So this is how you pray.”It felt like a perfect encapsulation for what we do together in circle and in our lives. There is a rhythm to a well-nourished life: a movement inward and a movement outward. Time alone and time in community. Reflection and expression. Receiving and offering.If we swim inward but never flow outward, we can become stagnant, over-contained, cut off from the life that wants to move through us. If we flow outward without ever swimming inward, we grow depleted, brittle, burned out by constant giving and doing.So in circle we practice both: Swimming inward, (breath, body, journaling, contemplating, noticing our own inner landscape), flowing outward (blessing one another, sharing stories, creating, writing, making things with our hands).This, too, is prayer: not only words, but in the ways we show up for our own lives and for each other.(photo is from GGG last month)Announcements:October EnchantmentThroughout this month, I’m offering a simple and sacred class called October Enchantment, designed to help you settle and soften into the enchantment of the season as well as to explore Baba Yaga and to deepen into our allies for the month.

I haven’t listened to enough of it yet to draw any conclusions—it seems to be domestic suspense/mystery-ish, but I also think it has a salacious side that I might not be ready for, toxic relationships are about to begin.

And, so,gently, September slides into the year, bringing breaths of cool air,the first yellowing leaves,and welcome clarity as we review what we learned in the cauldron and emerge to once again commit to what we know to be true, choosing with trust,determination,and renewed purpose as we look at our lives, at the abundant possibility around us, and settle into the rhythm that nourishes us, that supports us as we both change and thrive. Let us savor the time spent being here in this season of power and plenty.Happy September and welcome to this week’s Rituals of Returning newsletter and our September allies as we cross the threshold into a new season! We’ve updated the shop with some beautiful OOAK goddesses and color experiments as well as Hestia flags and bags. And, we’ve got our beautiful, powerful, magical ritual kits for Mabon ready as well!September ThresholdsImagine standing at a doorway in your life, a threshold into a new season. By the door there’s a basket. You don’t have to abandon anything forever. You can simply set a few things down for now.It’s okay to put some things in the basket, leave it at the threshold, and step across into what is waiting for you. (If you change your mind, you can always go back and get it later.)Prompt for this week:Name one thing you’d like to “leave in the basket” as we cross into September.Embers for SeptemberIn the threshold meditation I recorded for the Goddess Magic Mystery School with an expanded version of the above, I also invited people to consider their “ember for September.”If you imagine your life as a hearth, then September is not necessarily about building a roaring fire, it can simply be about tending a single glowing coal. It might be an ember of rest, or an ember of creativity, an ember of courage, or an ember of trust.You might name this ember with an intention, a word, or simply a sensation in your body. You might place a candle on your altar and light it once a day. You might notice a moment—a hawk flying overhead, a monarch crossing your path, the smell of apples in the air—and name that as your ember of joyInviting you, too, to consider: What ember am I tending this September?And, then, give that ember what you have: breath, presence, a smile, a few minutes of attention, a hand laid gently on your own heart.Feel free to hit “reply” or to share your thoughts on either of these prompts in the comments section!This week's magic:20 minute video: September’s Allies—Replenish with Hestia.I’m celebrating the equinox and a book-aversary and the Kindle edition of Return is on sale until September 15.My poem “the poem I wasn’t going to write” was published in the Amethyst Review in June (but I didn’t see it until this month).Other new videos:September’s activation replay (35 minutes)August’s Book of Magic Days flip-through (2 minutes)and, check out the new Wayshowers experience from the Divine Feminine App! Such a neat idea (and I’m honored to be included).New Class! Replenish at the HearthThroughout this month, I’m offering a simple and sacred class called Replenish at the Hearth. Inspired by the goddess Hestia and by the “release and review” energy of the autumn equinox as well as our allies for the season, this class includes:The Hearthkeeper’s Handbook printable Hestia devotional which includes a poem, prompt, and practice for each day of the month.A companion guidebook for September, including a fall equinox ritual.Four short, simple guided audios with companion ritual “recipe” cardsWeekly Live community practices on Patreon.This class is included at the $16 tier and above! For additional info and a special secret offer for September, check out this post. Note: if you are already a member of the Goddess Magic Mystery School you don’t have to do anything else—you’re already in and you’ll automatically get everything for the class. This post and announcement is for new members only (and so the post will be invisible to you if you’re already a member—you’re not missing anything, you’re just already there. :) )Announcements:Writing Nature and MagicI’m delighted to be the guest teacher for this year’s session of Writing Nature and Magic from Lucy Pearce and Sarah Robinson. I’ve created SO MANY good things to share for this course, including two hour-long workshops (The Magic of Place and Poetry and Practice), a printable book, and a set of mix and match oracle cards. Registration with an early-bird discount is open until September 15 and the course begins in October. It is self-study for four weeks and concludes with a live workshop on November 3 with Lucy, Sarah, and me.

Remember, you are always invited to return. You will forget sometimes. You will scroll too long, over commit, get scattered, and feel frazzled.Remember. The practice isn’t perfection; it’s returning.Light the candle.Draw the card.Read the poem.Step outside and watch the birds.Blow a kiss to the moon.You are always allowed to come back to your breath, your body, your magic.What helps you nestle back into the real?Currently reading: (to self) Swordheart—my beloved T. Kingfisher coming through for me again with a daring tale of a middle-aged woman and a dashing and seasoned warrior who happens to inhabit the blade of a sword.(to kids): The Wizard’s Guide to Defensive Baking—I have already listened to this one, but I decided to see if T. Kingfisher could come through for my kids as well and break us out of our reading rut. We’re doing our best. This one is about a “minor mage” who has power over dough and baking, but finds herself as the last remaining hope of her whole city. (listening to by self) The Raven and the Reindeer—surprise! T. Kingfisher again! This one is based on Nordic folklore and is a retelling of the Snow Queen with some sapphic undertones. About a girl who sets forth to rescue a boy and discovers that perhaps she actually likes girls better than boys. Some Sami folklore and magic are also woven in.side note: Mark is currently reading Nettle and Bone also by…T. Kingfisher. I’ve already listened to myself and it is a favorite for me! (It is coincidentally this month’s book club pick at the local library, which is why I snagged a copy for Mark)(listening to with Tanner) The Magician’s Nephew—I could not resist getting the complete Chronicles of Narnia from Audible when I had a credit to use up before cancelling my membership. It is a single credit purchase for 33 hours and THE ENTIRE SERIES as one file. The first is narrated by Kenneth Branagh too, who is doing an excellent job with voice acting it, so it isn’t like you got discount/AI narrators for such a bargain either! I’m finding the Christian allegory a lot more heavy-handed than I tuned into as a kid and, of course, I’m also annoyed by the “witch is evil” trope, which feels very tired. However, it also contains some truly excellent understated British humor and I did so love this series as a kid that it remains fun to share it. September’s Allies: Hestia, Nettle, Nasturtium, Amethyst, and FoxHestia,Keeper of Cauldron and Flame,bless this hearth, this desk, this sink, this screen,wherever my life is actually happening.Let my small acts of stirring, typing, folding, and feedingbecome prayers of care for myself and the world.Reminder: replenishment begins at the hearth—within yourself and your home—and then naturally extends outward into community.Note: expanded edition with practices and printable companion cards is here.This month’s theme is “Replenish.” As you watch and listen, you might consider:What in me needs replenishment?What is ready to be harvested?What is ready to be released?Our guiding presence this month is Hestia, keeper of the sacred flame and goddess of hearth and home.Hestia reminds us that:A house becomes a home when the hearth is tended.The hearth is not just physical—it is the center of your life, your heart, your body, your inner fire.Consider these questions:How are you tending your own hearth space?Does your home—inner or outer—need more attention, care, or love?Has your home become just a place to sleep and change clothes, instead of a place that nurtures you?An affirmation to continue working with this month (inspired by last month’s turquoise ally): I call myself home to myself.You might repeat:My home nurtures me.I am allowed to seek and receive replenishment.I am allowed to nourish and nurture myself.As the wheel of the year continues to spin, we find ourselves seeking stability and warmth, reaching out to what will comfort and sustain. May we trust the necessary wisdom of both gathering and releasing. May we have plenty of time to settle back with our tea and the wind. May we know contentment at our hearths and on our paths.May we continue to tend the steady flame within. This is a public episode.

Let us be generous with ourselves.Let us rest well and wisely. Let us listen to the yearning in our souls. Let us leave space for wonder and space for delight. Let us create and nurture wide margins for magic in our lives. Let us trust the call we feel. Let it lead us to leap in the direction of desire.Welcome to this week’s Rituals of Returning newsletter!

What are you inviting to become real?In this month’s Simple and Sacred live circle, I read one of my poems from 365 Days of Goddess and then offered this invitation: Tonight’s candle lighting invites you to consider what is bubbling up from that cauldron of dreams. What are you inviting to become real?We named: contentment, harmony, acceptance, creativity, aligned action, listening to intuition, finishing books, speaking up, slowing down. After each, I offered the benediction: May it become real.I share this now with the wider circle present here in the the Rituals of Returning newsletter. What are you inviting to become real?Feel free to share yours in the comments, or whisper it into a candle flame tonight.Pele’s FireReminder: May you follow the call of your desires, dance with all your feelings, and keep living your magic.Note: expanded edition with practices and printable companion cards is here.Questions to consider:How are you in touch with the molten, fierce aspect of your life—that deep inner heart, that core beneath distraction, division, worry, and concern?What is the fierce, molten core of your life right now?What is your relationship with your own anger?How have you been taught to handle anger (and how does gender socialization impact it)?What is your heart’s true desire?How can you more intentionally listen to the rhythms of your heart and breath, your own “internal drumming”?What dreams are you ready to extend your arms to embrace?AffirmationsI extend my arms to embrace my dreams.I embrace my own passion.I dance to the rhythms of my life.I take action to manifest my heart’s desire.I choose and change.It is now that we rememberwe are here to be in love with living,not to exist for productionor performanceor to pleasethe electronic rectanglesof approval and discordthat we carry with us through our days.Here, now,curled in a green cocoonof becoming,we remember how it feelsto treasure our place on this earth,raindrops sprinkling our shouldersand starshine in our eyes,feet planted on the earth,arms lifted toward the moon.This is what is sacred now,being alive in the real.

Pause. Root yourself in where you are, your own landscape of living. Allow yourself to be, whole and here, held and heard. Keep a space for the sacred at the center of your own life. Hold it holy. Return often.Happy weekend! I hope you are making some space to steep in the deepness of this thick, heavy, hot summer season. To honor the abundance of this time of year, we have our new Summer Meadow goddesses in the shop. We also still have some of our special edition Pele-inspired Lava goddesses available.This week's magic:It is now that we are invitedto step into the cauldron of change,to sink downand inand let everything we are carryingsoften and melt awaywhile we remember how it feelsto simmer in everythingwe have made,all that we love to tasteand serve.My most recent essay for Feminism and Religion, Notes from the Cauldron of Change, was published this week. 14 minute mini ritual video: from reactive to creative, more allies for August.scroll all the way down to the bottom for your free companion card set!New audio for Everyday Magic: Wild Enchantment.I’ve actually started working on my next book! A Book of Magic Days should be finished by late fall. As I explained in this week’s community practice live, when I say “writing a book,” what I really mean is that all of the pieces of the book are already written, I just have to start putting the puzzle together and getting it all formatted and laid out. Unfortunately, the laying out part is the hard and boring part. I’m really in the thick of it! I am up to April in it so far. I was hoping to have the first draft in my actual hands by the end of this month, but I don’t think I’m going to make it that swiftly.Speaking of writing, I’m so pleased to announce that we’re offering a free, special Writers Workshop on October 9th at 7:00 central time (via Zoom) with the founder of Rolla Writers Club, Derek Zboran.

Older-YA fiction about a girl, Blue, who comes from a family with psychic powers and a ley-line-obsessed private school student and his assortment of troubled friends.(to kids) we’re struggling to find something anyone likes. HELP! So far, we are now partway through Steelheart (too violent, depressing, and occasionally cringe in characterization for my taste, but kids are semi-interested in it and it IS by Brandon Sanderson) and also Gabriel Finley and the Raven’s Riddle (this one is on the chopping block because the riddles are, frankly, so bad. For a book in which riddles feature heavily, you think you’d include some good ones. This book is about people having lost their former special magical relationship with ravens and also about valravens, who are evil, flesh-eating immortal ravens. Yeah. Sounds like it would have potential…right?). I have Dragonwatch queued up in my kindle, but they kids got annoyed with Seth during the Fablehaven series and he’s in this book too. I’ve also got Wolf Tower by Tanith Lee in print that I got from a playgroup giveaway box back in the day and maybe her time has finally come!(listening to with Tanner): From the Desk of Zoe Washington—a story about a girl who wants to be on a kids baking show. She also has an incarcerated father that she begins to communicate with secretly. It is ALSO narrated by the same voice actor that narrated Mighty Miss Malone, who we have now learned is Bahni Turpin and she is one of our favorite narrators! She does an amazing job. This is a second listen for us, because we also listened to it a couple of years ago for Alaina’s literature.(listening to by self): A Dark and Wild Wood—I’ve actually been listening to this while typing, but then I had to stop to focus. I thought initially it was a re-visioning of Bluebeard, but I might be mistaken. It is about a woman with some un-controlled, dark magical powers (still unspecified), who experiences quite a lot of trauma and bad experiences and ends up going from a convent to a brothel to a mysterious chateau in the woods with a potentially dangerous man-spirit of whom I will give you no more info in case you decide to read it.Note: I am on Fable if you want to follow along with what I read there!Resource Reminders:August’s practice update for #30DaysofGoddess!Back to the Root free series is still available:Make sure to check out the collection where all of the free posts are available.And, you can still grab your welcome kit with beautiful journals and customizable covers.Make sure to keep up with our dedicated newsletter for Gaea Goddess Gathering!

"odd uneven time" comes from Sylvia Plath. Both from pieces written about August. "Hey ritual," part is a funny, but fitting autocorrect from this month in which I said: "a ritual of returning," and the voice-to-text gave me, "hey, ritual!

In the heat of summer, I pause at the crossroads,lighting a candle in the sacred cauldron of my heart.I listen to the whispers of my soul,as dreams coalesce and possibilities take form.I stand in the center of my own life,where I extend my hands to touch the infinite fieldthat carries and holds me in each moment.I breathe in the ordinarygifts of life,the bright sky above me, the solid earth beneath me,the squirrel’s dance, the fox’s crossing,the falling star’s blazing message.Grant me the courage to show up,the willingness to notice and see,to love the ordinary and trust itas my pathway to the sacred.In this living practice of presence,magic, mystery, and meaningcoalesce.Happy June and welcome to this week’s Rituals of Returning newsletter with our allies for summer!

My yesis a spell of devotion. I let inspiration carry me with ease.reading: (to self) Fields of Asphodel—a novel about the daughter of Hades and Persephone and her relationship with Thanatos. It is okay, but I do keep forgetting where I am because it isn’t that memorable. I also took a break from it while I read…(just finished) My Other Heart—this was August’s book club pick at the library and it was so engaging that I ate it right up in a few nights. It is about two girls, one who is adopted and is half-Japanese, and one whose single mother is from China, as well also about a Vietnamese woman with a tragedy to investigate. It was really touching and felt very real in terms of characterization. (to Tanner) More Milly Molly Mandy—these vintage UK stories from the 1920’s charmed me as a little girl and they still charm me today. Love them! I’m taking a break from reading to everyone because they got fed up with the Seventh Tower series and need a break. I’m going to be extremely sad if that series is what stopped my tradition of reading aloud to all my kids each night (including those in their twenties). :((listening to with Tanner): Conjure Island—a story about a girl who ends up having to stay with a long-lost great-grandmother on a mysterious island off the coast of South Carolina, where she finds out that she comes from a long line of Gullah people well-versed in Southern conjure magic. It is narrated by the same voice actor that narrated Mighty Miss Malone and she is one of our favorite narrators! She does an amazing job.(listening to by self): Caroline—the Little House story told through Ma’s eyes.

This is an interesting anthology with poems, short stories, and book excerpts from speculative fiction. It has made me highlight several book titles to get separately because I was hooked in by the extracts included.(to kids) The Violet Keystone, the sixth and final book in the Seventh Tower series (why there aren’t seven gets on all of our nerves, but we’re also ready for the series to be over). listening to:by self: Caroline—this is an adult retelling of the Little House on the Prairie saga through Ma’s eyes. It WAY overuses simile and is a little more navel-gazing than I expect Ma would actually have had time for, but I’m finding it very engaging and interesting. Listening to this for me is completely independent of the new Netflix series that is currently ALL over the news and social media. I didn’t even know there was going to be a new series until just this week and I have been on the waiting list for Caroline for several months now. I also feel like I need a disclaimer that despite my deep childhood fondness for this series, as an adult, I’ve definitely come to see what a sanitized, idealized, and whitewashed picture it paints of the westward expansion, colonialism, and the indigenous nightmare of forced removal.with Tanner and Mark: Daughter of the Deep—a lengthy revisiting of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea by Rick Riordan.

Wise weeds and wild ones, show me the holiness hidden in what I overlook. There is plenty right here, a cocoon for the metamorphosis of now.Inviting you to step into the Cauldron of Change in our Rituals of Returning video for July. This month is a gently powerful invitation into midyear reflection and integration—a sacred pause to let your experiences steep, so you can carry forward what truly nourishes you.Reminder: I do create monthly handbooks for members of our Goddess Magic Mystery School community and July’s handbook is available here.Expanded post available here.Questions to consider:What from the first half of this year needs to be:Scooped out and released?Left to steep longer?More fully savored and integrated?What needs to be reconsidered, redefined, or re‑explored at this midpoint of the year?Where do you need spikier boundaries around your time, your days, and your energy?What needs to be lovingly cut away so you can choose transformation?Where are you being invited to savor the sweetness of your life more fully?How can you create sanctuary in your everyday life, right where you are?How can you create what you seek right now, in the middle of everything?What might become clear if you grant yourself a sacred pause this month to integrate, reflect, deepen, and steep?AffirmationsI tumble with the turning.I allow myself to choose and to change.I take my life to the cauldron and listen.I am on the lookout for the presence of wonder.I am awake to the miracle.I tend to the secret garden in my soul.I am at home in myself.I create a sanctuary in my everyday.I savor this sweet and wild life.A Blessing of BelongingWe close our weekly live community practice each week with our familiar blessing of belonging:Breathing in, we arrive in our bodies,breathing out we soften.We remember we belong to the earth and the sky,to ourselves and one another.May our small, steady flamesjoin countless othersin a great weaving of repair.Here, in the Cauldron of Change of summer, we remember: we do not change alone.We change in circles, in conversations, in the solidarity of knowing that other people, other places, are lighting their candles too, placing their own experiences into the cauldron, asking their own questions, and trusting that together, across distance and in all our imperfect humanity, we are part of a great weaving of repair.So as July unfurls, I invite you to steep in some practices/ideas that we’ve recently been exploring in circle:Let July be July.Let yourself be yourself.Release what is too heavy.Let what is still becoming have time to steep.Savor what is already sweet and true.And remember, every time you pause to remember you belong: you are a small, steady flame in a wide, wild, shimmering cauldron of change in which we can brew a new world to share. Our Inner Pace…My inner pace in Julymoves in resonancewith the languorous,liquid,luminous,lazy rhythm of desire,of longing,of curiosity and wonder. It is the pace of discovery,of creative renewaland energetic re-setand review,the pace of life’s own unfolding,on its own time,in its own ways.Sending love to all of you.Keep living your magic, Molly, Mark, + Family This is a public episode.

Waters flowand clear light shines,summer’s magic is now mine.reading:(to self) Red Rising—a little violent and disturbing and disheartening (a blend of Hunger Games meets Ender’s Game), this book is also immediately engaging and swoops you right up into this sci-fi world of far-future colonists of Mars and how they have stratified society into a brutal color-caste system. Naturally, we must rely on a plucky, gifted, unwillingly heroic 16 year old to save the day (world).(to kids) Into Battle, book five in the Seventh Tower series—almost finished with this one (also color-caste based society with Red at the bottom, interestingly!).

She invites us into our senses for a "geohaptic" connection. Imagine that your six senses—touch, sight, sound, taste, smell, and intuition—are six thick roots extending from your body down, down, down to the center of the planet, where they anchor into what Annie Dillard once called Holy the Firm. Holy the Firm can be whatever you name as ultimate:• Goddess/God• gravity or time• molten metal or mystery• the sacred, the absolute, the hum at the center of thingsFrom that core, these roots rise back through the layers of the earth—rock and soil, water and air—reaching into your veins, your skin, your bones, your mind, and heart."You are socketed into the living world through your senses."This deep rooting is a gift.And, a quote to remember and draw strength from:“When the world feels hard, remember this: We live on a planet where trees feed their dying elders through underground rivers of root and fungus. Where whales carry songs older than memory across entire oceans and octopuses dream in shifting colour. Where every breath we take is given by trees and the algae drifting through the sea. Where plants rise around us as medicine, monarch butterflies travel thousands of miles on wings softer than paper, and tiny birds navigate by sensing the earth itself. Where starlight travels for millions of years before touching the earth, and tiny seeds break open stone in their longing for light.”-- Brigit Anna McNeilNote: this section was part of my Back to the Roots series free on Patreon.A summer blessing…And so,we crossed the thresholdinto summer,the vision we breathed into beingon the winter solsticehas now taken form.May we have the courage neededto stand in this liminal space,one foot in creative darkness,one foot in bright possibility.Let us look into our own cupped hands,seeing the seed dreamwe have nourished,that we’ve planted and protectedis now ready to bloom and thrive.Let us clear space around it.Let us weed awaywhat is not needed.Let us step backand invite the heat and passionof summer’s lightto invigorate and strengthenthat which we have so patiently tended.It is now when the visionswe have nurturedbecome real.Sending love to all of you.Keep living your magic,Molly, Mark, + FamilyNow is the time for golden dreams, for your imagination to dance with reality and weave ideas into form.

In the heat of summer, I pause at the crossroads,lighting a candle in the sacred cauldron of my heart.I listen to the whispers of my soul,as dreams coalesce and possibilities take form.I stand in the center of my own life,where I extend my hands to touch the infinite fieldthat carries and holds me in each moment.I breathe in the ordinarygifts of life,the bright sky above me, the solid earth beneath me,the squirrel’s dance, the fox’s crossing,the falling star’s blazing message.Grant me the courage to show up,the willingness to notice and see,to love the ordinary and trust itas my pathway to the sacred.In this living practice of presence,magic, mystery, and meaningcoalesce.

I started it in the airport on the way home and it is perfect for me. (to kids) Into Battle, book five in the Seventh Tower series—I took a break from reading while we were gone to Nevada and so we’ve just started this one. I’m a little disappointed that they are now prepping for this big battle and solving the problems of their unraveling society and worldview with a fight. (listening to with Tanner): How to Trap a Tiger—a story about a girl and her mother and sister who go to live with their grandmother in a small town and there is a mysterious, elusive tiger that she keeps glimpsing.
