Beyond the mists & through the trees,
Beneath the pale moonlight…
In the shadow of an ancient oak,
There occurred a curious sight…
A collection of love, musing & occasional wisdom from my soul’s Book of Shadows.
An artist, writer, yogi & creatrix, Sates channeled over two decades of experience into The Corvus Circle, a deep movement to rekindle our connection with Mother Earth & ourselves, and its accompanying blog, What the Cat Told the Raven, a loving collection of musing & unspoken words.
Over hill, over dale,Thorough bush, thorough brier,Over park, over pale,Thorough flood, thorough fire;I do wander everywhere,Swifter than the moonโs sphere. Fairy, William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night’s Dream Midsummer exists as its own realm within my mind. Golden light, glittering dew drops, dancing fireflies, lusciously soft grass beneath bare, gentle feet.
Never be afraid to go back; to where your magick flowed, when your imagination ran wild, and you let yourself run with it. Stars. Gods, there were so many stars. Billions, twinkling against the inky black like glitter cast across midnight silk. I breathed deep, the air in the circle
Once upon a time, there was a princess who longed to be the village witch… For a long time, I wasn’t a fan of the phrase, “You have to love yourself before anyone else can love you.” To me this suggested that until I could love myself, I wasn’t worthy
Your worth is in your hands alone, babe. Stream of consciousness outpouring from the soul. Riffing from a place of love. It’s all here for it. You are more than enough. Let’s get that out of the way. You are beyond enough, beyond capable, beyond ready, beyond the crushing cage
Kshama (Sanskrit: เคเฅเคทเคฎเคพ, romanized: kแนฃamฤ): Patience, forbearance, forgiveness (among many, many other things) It’s recently occurred to me that I’ve never really talked about my personal yoga practice. And considering what an important part of my life it is, this seemed really odd to me at first to have not mentioned
I wish you magick.
