Primal Earth power is fueled by the blood, bone, and ash of every creature and substance that has preceded our existence. Following every life cycle, these “above the soil,” sources settle into the ground where they are recycled and transformed as eager chthonic biomass to animate and/or nourish their next vessel. The practice of Chthonic Grounding recognizes and honors the millennia of lifetimes and ingredients that animate your current existence and helps you reconnect to this enduring and humbling source of strength, wisdom, protection, and tethering. (Information and guidance about this practice is coming soon.)

We are surrounded by constant cycling as the universe and the Earth maintain balance through celestial patterns and reactions, elemental exchanges, energetic exchanges, life and death, and the cycles of the geosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, cryosphere, and biosphere. We are a product of these cycles and when we fall out of rhythm with ourselves and our surroundings, we feel lost and disconnected.

Recognizing and reconnecting to your chthonic substance, power, and completeness in a way that is sustainable to all systems around you, will also support what we call Full Cycle Witchcraft.

Full Cycle Witchcraft is a balance-conscious approach that encourages practitioners to make sustainable decisions, within their means, as often as they are able, empowering them as ever-improving responsible and respectful stewards of planetary, energetic, universal, and spiritual power.

Fostering a connection to the land and all inhabitants and viewing yourself as a part of a whole and not exceptional to the whole, will promote humility and grounding, tuning you into the natural energetic rhythms of spirit and place, expanding and super-charging your natural intuition and magical power. A willingness to listen is all it takes to connect with your surroundings, whether you’re tuning into the language of the rocks, the trees, the water, the creatures, or the stars. We are born with the innate ability to communicate or exchange information in every animistic dialect. There is no learning curve to hear the rhythms because we are born of the rhythm.

Focusing on your roots and foundation, reinforcing and grounding into that stability, you can learn to pull deeply and sustainably from chthonic nutrients and feel your harmonious connection to the world and the greater cycles of creation and existence; to connect with the natural power and protection of source, while channeling and manifesting spiritual energy and links between worlds.

I encourage you to join me in responsibly honoring the spirits of animals, plants, place, substance, and all the source-materials that are used to enhance individual spiritual, magical, and/or witchcraft practices.

If you’re like me, you desire to construct your practice in whatever way is relevant, rather than follow a path that is restrictively linear and loaded with stipulations. Embrace your eclectic nature! Untamed (not to be confused with “undisciplined”) spirituality and witchcraft facilitate inspiration in, and interaction with, multiple ecosystems, universes, God-pantheons, bio-pantheons, various wisdom keepers, cultures, etc. Wherever you discover connection, inspiration, and power, and find a healthy balance within your personal ecology (physical, spiritual, energetic, and social) and with the universe, that is your focus and your true magical origin story.

The path of discovery is as mesmerizing and beautiful as it is difficult and sometimes terrifying. It requires tapping into and navigating the vulnerable depths, darkness, and shadows of the unknown. An unknown that may be shadowed by your personal and ancestral triggers and trauma, where the truest light is your own.

I am here to help and support you along this path however I can. From simply offering a smile of encouragement or if you’re seeking magical tools and supplies.
