I find myself thinking of Demeter as I watch Autumn take hold of the land around me. She’s the Goddess I walk with during the season of Virgo, though my connection with her this year feels different.Usually, I walk more closely with her daughter, Persephone- especially as she begins her descent into the underworld and …
Leo season has always been a double-edged sword for me. When July arrives, the sun burns high in the sky and the days stretch luxuriously long-but I find myself strangely adrift, my usual spiritual rhythms melting in the heat and humidity. I’m a lover of autumn and the delicious darkness that descends then, and the …

Associated with Sovereignty, Healing, Wisdom and Protection, She also has a close connection to the space inbetween and the seasonal transition from Winter to Spring- Imbolc that marks the half-way point- She is the Goddess I work closely with during this season. She is …
