Serving Up Witchcraft & Magick at the Young Crones Cafe

In this episode, the Crone & Sage discuss how formal consecration of items we may end up with for our rituals and magick isn’t necessary because we believe that everything is already sacred. However, we also think that items carry energy “imprints” from their travels before they end up with us and that these items can benefit from a period of acclimation before being used. Whether they choose to keep these energies, such as something a maker has brought to an item through their creating, or discard those that don’t mesh with their own nature, giving them time to figure that out can be beneficial. In our Practices segment where we talk about what we do and how we do what we do, a lively discussion about where we may choose to work magick is available. We also include a New Perspectives Quarter Quick Spell in honor of the upcoming change into the Times of Beltane. Finally, the Sage discusses how sometimes our path may be smooth and easy and other times it seems as if we are moving through a jungle needing a machete and that we may need to take some time to understand why.

The available Light Energy has gradually been increasing since its “return” at Winter Solstice, However, we on The Path have learned over the years is that between the start of the upcoming Times of Beltane and Summer Solstice it feels like the Light Energy is increasing exponentially around us. This is a gentle reminder to take care of yourself and not allow yourself to become overwhelmed because you feel like you have to be more energetic than you may be able to manage.

This week the Crone & Sage started out discussing the Metaphysical Kernel of Thought to break down why we choose to bless rather than cleanse ourselves, objects, places, etc. Then our Practices section led to not only a Discussion about those little daily things we do but it seemed to fit the idea of using a blessing as part of our everyday stuff as well. Finally, (just to keep a theme going which never really happens) today’s Tip, Trick, or Witchy Hint gives you three different small practices we often do as part of our day and the specifics of what we do so that you can try them yourself if you want.

As a Witch on The Path, I have always been followed by Crows. To me, they represent one of my most powerful synchronicities as a result. We have an abundance of crows locally and they are constantly around, especially in the local parks. Seeing them flock overhead at dawn and dusk making an amazing amount of noise is always a wake up call.

In this episode, the Crone & Sage talk about how different groups come up with names for the 13 Moons of the Lunar Year and how The Path developed their own names. The important point of this is to find ones that fit our own area or practices for yourself. In our Practices Segment, we talk about Keeping Track of What You Do or Not and the point of enjoying your own history. Finally, the Sage talks about Putting a Finger in Your Magick or using the sense of touch to enhance what you do in this episode’s Tip, Trick, or Witchy Hint.

The Vernal Equinox is March 19th this year. This is one of those dates like the Autumnal Equinox and the Solstices whose date moves around a little bit each year. However, it is now that day where we experience equal amounts of Light & Dark Energy. Things are in perfect balance only twice a year and this is a good time to take a few minutes and notice which parts of your Body, Mind, & Spirit are in balance and where things aren’t so that you can figure out how to move closer to balance. Remember that on The Path we know that perfect balance is an ideal that can’t be achieved but there is no reason not to work towards it when possible. Happy Spring!

In this episode, the Crone & Sage focus on developing what The Path terms an attitude of gratitude for the good things we all have in our lives when we pay attention. In our Practices segment where we focus on why and what we do when we do things, we get into the idea of what we term Rabbit Holing when looking for new and different ways of doing or seeing things. There’s a Quick Spell for creating a healthy garden as the spring season approaches. Finally, today’s Tip, Trick, or Witchy Hint focuses on the idea that it is ok to take 5 minutes to just breathe when we find ourselves overwhelmed for whatever reason, either mundane or even magickal.
