We wait in the dark for the light to appear, Mother, give birth to our brother the Sun. We wait in the dark for the light to appear, Mother, give birth to our brother the Sun! We wait. We watch. Out of the cold comes the promise of newness. We wait. We watch. Out of… Continue reading Celebrating Midwinter
So something seriously weird has happened of late, and it appears that I’ve accepted the role the project I work for has to play. This is a really big thing, given that I was ready to walk out after last week. A bit more detail: my Muggle and I have decided that my boss lives… Continue reading Coming to Terms with Reality
I’ve been in two minds over whether or not to post this on here. But given there is so little on Herne online, about what he’s really about, I’m posting this for others who feel drawn to him. This is for my fellow Pagans who hear Herne’s call to them, and are interested in getting… Continue reading Hearing Herne’s Call
This weekend past was the AWC – the Australian Wiccan Conference, in its 29th year. It was my first, and I’m already looking forward to next years! I had such a fantastic time!! A weekend on an island to ourselves and the elements (and staff, obviously) on the Hawksbury River. I got to wake up to… Continue reading A New Chapter Begins

In little under a month it will be Imbolc, and our four year anniversary. It’s strange to think that… Continue reading Embracing a modern-day Gypsy lifestyle
When I first began practicing, I followed Wicca. Not for any particular reason, more because I was introduced to Scott Cunningham and, at the time, it was the only book I was aware of for beginners. There are so many out on the market now, I’d hate to be a newbie to the Pagan path… Continue reading Full Moon Ponderings
Recently I posted about my new job eating at my conscience. Today, I found peace with it. Today, we had a “team bonding session.” All day. For the most part, it was interesting. 20-40 year olds playing tunnel ball? Classic! Finishing the day at Darling Harbour with bowling and an open bar tab? Even better!… Continue reading Finding peace with what ails
