Confession: I know almost nothing about astrology or tarot

This may come as a shock to many, because I am very witchy, aesthetically and in my practice. I mean, I have candles hanging on my wall and my business name is "Moth & Flame" and I have quite a few tattoos. It feels almost like false advertising that I do not know my own astrology chart, but I swear it is not intentional, nor am I condemning those who do.

In fact the opposite is true.

I LOVE it when we humans find things that help them better understand ourselves and the world, in whatever form that takes.

Ceremony and rituals are beyound important as they create meaning and safety.

I find it so fulfilling to help my clients find and utilize the ones that serve them.

Some of my rituals are:

1. collecting rocks and stones (and sometimes crystals) when I travel

2. meditations to set intentions each equinox as the seasons change

3. make my own candles each season and burning them during sessions

4. burning sage between sessions to ground myself

5. making my own art journals

6. writing poetry*

*Sign up for my newsletter to find out more about the real source of my witchy vibe- I often think of certain poems as mantras and mantras as spells. That is the basis of most talk therapies after all. Words have power, no matter your belief system.

What are your rituals, what helps you ground yourself and stay focused on your goals in our increasingly loud world?
