I would like to see this in Australia.

I'm currently immersed in Hermetic literature—Salaman, Copenhaver, Litwa. Should I add this one to my reading list?

Horror stories of a ‘feminised workplace’ mask the real crisis in male identity | Finn Mackay Stereotypes that centre men’s worth in their work are strangling sensible debate, and letting down women too, says author Finn Mackay

This needs to be said over and over and over. Women are not the enemy. Patriarchy, capitalism, trillionaires and billionaires the enemy.

BoM asked to explain ‘what happened here’ after cost of website redesign revealed to be $96.5m Environment minister Murray Watt ‘not happy’ with cost blowout and has shared concerns with new Bureau of Meteorology boss

This would have required many conversations, concepts and designs and reiterations, testing, ongoing meetings, and a chain of command of approvals. $96.5m isn't spent by accident or surprise. #BOM

I don't understand the surprise. Christianity has been aligned with colonisation, misogyny, oppression, violence, fascism, etc. for quite some time.

My husband has been in hospital for six days waiting for a procedure. Just waiting. Doctors don't come when they say they will. The procedure is delayed over and over. I know everyone is doing their best, but it's hard to stay calm and patient when you don't know what's going on. #Melbourne #Austin

In this post, I share photos and reflections from my visit to Heraklion Archaeological Museum, offering glimpses of beauty and meaning from ancient Crete.

Lit candles arranged in front of a transgender pride flag, symbolizing remembrance and support for the transgender community.

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we honour the trans and gender-diverse people who have lost their lives to violence, hatred, and neglect. Let's keep working toward a world where remembrance is no longer needed.

I'm reviewing notes from the 2009, 2013, and 2024 Georgian Wicca Elders Gatherings. I love this community and how we work together to honour the roots of the trad while adapting to modern concerns.

The Minotaur: Beauty, violence, and the forbidden A solar god, a monster, an object of lust. What's the story of the Minotaur, one of the Ancient Greek world’s most fascinating and enduring mythical creatures.

Half-man, half-bull, the Minotaur is one of the most haunting figures in Greek myth. In this piece, I explore the Minotaur’s origins, meanings, and how this enduring myth continues to resonate with us today.

Sarah Paulson is right about pigeons.

Smiling older man with a goatee, wearing a dark turtleneck, stands outdoors. Text below reads: "George Patterson, 18 November 1920 - 6 November 1984."

In 1970, at age 52, George 'Pat' Patterson put forth a magickal call. Jilaine Callison and Linda Sue Guinn Sanner answered it and, together with Pat, they founded the Georgian tradition. Pat died on 6 Nov 1984 from cancer. His legacy endures through the Georgian Wicca tradition.

Marjorie Taylor Greene never thought leopards would eat her face. When will conservatives learn that Trump doesn't care about them? He is completely self-serving and will throw anyone under the bus.

How to reconnect with Hekate when she goes silent When Hekate goes silent, her absence holds meaning. Explore why silence comes and how to reconnect with the goddess through reflection and devotion.

My blogs about Hekate spark the most comments and questions, such as, "I can’t feel Hekate anymore." In this new post, I explore what that silence might mean and how to rekindle the flame.

Me too. I love that novel so much. I did like Frankenstein a lot, but the Shape of Water was more emotionally absorbing for me. Perhaps it's the love story versus father-son angle.

Ah, I'm not sure in that case. I have an annual subscription, which is annoying enough.

Me too. Those two and benzoin are my three favourites.

I downgraded my Microsoft account to Classic. They warn you that it doesn't include Copilot like it's a bad thing.

Even in THEIR OWN AD, Charlie at the end looks like he’s thinking, “This is sad and weird.” Promising people you can prevent feelings of loss is not only ridiculous; it’s perverse. Sad things and happy things need each other. This company is promising numbness.

I feel this way about esoteric content creators, too. It makes it hard for me to take them seriously.

Four horizontal paint strokes in blue, pink, white, pink, and blue create a flag-like pattern, resembling the transgender pride flag.

From November 13 to 19, let's stand in solidarity with our trans and non-binary siblings. This week is an invitation to listen, learn, and act.

The beautiful Minoan Snake Goddess, an introduction A short introduction to Minoan Snake Goddess, her origins, and a brief look at contemporary Minoan-inspired Pagan practices.

Mysterious, powerful, and enduring, the Minoan Snake Goddess continues to fascinate.

In this brief introduction, I explore her origins and how her image has influenced modern Minoan-inspired Pagan practice.

I think the Orphic Hymns exhibit distinct goals, worldviews, senses of authority, ritual focuses, technologies, and ethos that are significantly different from those of most forms of modern paganism.

The ancient wisdom of Pythagoras for modern magic Explore how the wisdom of the ancient Greek philosopher Pythagoras shapes modern magic, from sacred geometry to harmony, proportion, and the soul’s journey.

Pythagoras taught that the universe sings — every element, every soul, part of a greater harmony. My latest blog explores his wisdom, how it has shaped modern practice, and how we can apply it today.

November is the month of my birth, and I commit it to the Minoan Snake Goddess, to whom I dedicate my rebirth, regeneration, transformation, and creativity. May inner renewal bring me closer to my life purpose as a woman and Priestess for the benefit of all beings. #PaganSky

I just recently landed a job at a Catholic hospital! I didn't think I'd even get an interview.

There's an academic book I want to read. Options include pirating a PDF online, purchasing a paperback for AU$80, and becoming a general member of the University of Melbourne library for AU$65 for three months. Why is knowledge so hard to access? #AcademicPublishing #books
