Hi. This post has several links. Marketers know you’re not supposed to use links because they send readers away to other sites. Whatever. You can follow the links down the rabbit hole if you want. Or skip to the spell/practice at the end. I also know links can be...
Decisions, decisions…
I don't know why decisions are coming up so frequently lately. In posts, in my classes, when I speak at Spiritual Activism... (that's a Sunday 12:15 ET group you can come to if you want. Speakers share about magic (me), Gnosticism, Automatic (channeled or "direct")...
Owl Moon
