#FediCoven 2026 Q7: What have seasonal changes taught you that books or teachers could not?
I've learned more from nature in general that I ever would have in school when it comes to many subjects. I allow myself to truly feel (and love) the changes during the year, throughout the seasons, and that alone has done a lot for me. Just as we as people change, Mother Earth does as well throughout the year. Change is good. It cleanses and renews.

#FediCoven 2026 Q6: What relationship do you have with the moon and its phases, and how does that show up in your craft?
Ever since I was little, I've always felt connected to the moon. That hasn't changed, nor will it. The moon plays a big part in my practice, as I'm sure it does for many others as well. I usually work my schedule and spells around its phases.

@floofpaldi I love when somebody hits it off with you & we start talking energies, herbs, or spiritual court. Then others join in with their experiences.
What doesn’t work for me when you bring something up that could be better & you’re greeted with apathy. I’ve left circles over this. #Pagan #Paganism #Wicca #Wiccan #Heathen #Fedicoven

#FediCoven 2026 Q5: What helps you feel welcome in a pagan or witchy space? And what doesn't?
A true feeling of "otherness" and a lack of crosses. LOL. In all seriousness, though, just a genuine sense of self, unapologetically and authentically them, so I can get a read on the person, an idea of who they are or what they like, and we all decorate differently. That final part makes things fun.
Just be yourself.

#FediCoven 2026 Q4: How do you identify? (Witch, druid, pagan, shaman, medium, 'all of the above'?)
These days, I generally only use a single word: pagan (because it's simple, easy). Feel free to call me anything you want, though. None of those words bother me. Also, random: I'm a medium, or a clairvoyant, psychic, etc. I even have a paranormal podcast.

Jake is an electrical engineer, and a wizard with ancient devices. But he didn’t know real magic until he met Mary, who uses her powers to control the weather. Together, they team up to heal Gaia from the ravages of human industry. Is it science or magic?
Read “Our Better Nature”, and you can decide.

#FediCoven 2026 Q3: Are you out of the broom closet?
I was raised in an Irish Catholic family. With that being said, my father practiced his own sort of Paganism, having been close to and dear friends with so many indigenous peoples, and my mother is Wiccan. So, of course, to some family members, I'm out. To others, I'm not. I actually live with my grandmother, my nana, and she thinks I just collect crystals. She also thinks I might be agnostic. It is what it is.

#FediCoven 2026 Q2: What role does self-care play in your practice? Any tips?
Self-care is a huge part of my practice. A major one, actually. We have to take care of ourselves before we can even think of taking care of those around us. No matter what your religion is, that should play a role.
As for tips? Do what's right for your body. Listen to what your body needs. Drink more water. Take your medication if you're reading this and you haven't yet. Every little thing matters.
-
#FediCoven 2026 Q1: For those who have a form of divination in their practice, does this indicate to you that the universe is predestined or deterministic?
Thank you, @HeliaXyana! :11111:
In some ways, I believe it is. In others, I do believe we forge our own path. You could ask any pagan and they would probably give you a different answer. While I think some things are set in stone, others might be changed.

One review called “Our Better Nature” a modern fairy tale for hopeful adults. Mary, a thoroughly modern woman, uses her ancient weather-wrangling wiccan ways to heal Gaia from the ravages of the global industrial complex. Along the way, she and her consort Jake find love, intrigue, good food, mystery, danger, and an ultimate challenge. On Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and at the Boulder Bookstore.

Love and Safety Through the Goddess Way (A Witch’s Perspective)
“Do I know you well enough, so you feel safe and loved?” my husband of over 26 years asked me. Do we know anyone well enough? “You shall be free from slavery.” – The Goddess in The Charge of the Goddess, as written by Doreen Valiente Have you ever felt like a slave to your anxieties? I have depression symptoms. So, I often feel like crap. When do I feel safe?Often, when my husband is next to me.Recently, I was driving us in my car, and he called out, “Watch out, on your […] -
It’s the real world, with a touch of magic. It’s the good people saving the world, and the bad people getting in their way and (almost) defeating them. It’s love, family, betrayal, redemption, pain, healing, good friends, intrigue, conspiracy, evil villains, a little bit of sex, and a lot of good food.
It’s “Our Better Nature”. Mary, Jake, and the world-wide weather-wrangling wiccans set out to heal Gaia from the ravages of man. Available on Amazon, Barnes & Nobel, and at the Boulder Bookstore.

Did you know I wrote a Pagan self-help book? I've long been skeptical of most self-help books, so I wrote one that's a little different. It's for everyone who feels a sacred connection with the Earth, not just Wiccans, despite the title (the publisher of the first edition chose the title and I had little say in the matter).

Find Your Music – The Door to the Goddess’s Level (A Witch’s Perspective)
“How is your daily life?”“It’s crap,” Alicia, someone in my community, said.The divorce didn’t help. How is your own daily life?Do you feel that you connect with the Goddess each day? Maybe, like many of us, you feel too exhausted to do a ritual. Then the answer is to do something simple. First, can you walk for 5 minutes next to trees? How about listening to comforting music? In my circle, a friend, Ben, dances for 4 minutes a day. He’s been doing this daily. He does NOT […] -

What if you need to shift to calm in a stressful situation? (A Witch’s Perspective)
“When are you calm during the day?” a friend, Alicia, asked me. “Usually when I first wake up in the morning. Before the weight of the day crashes down on my shoulders,” I replied. Alicia wasn’t expecting that answer. Meanwhile… Lidia, someone I know, works in retail. She’s noticing that more and more customers in recent weeks have been saying rude, impatient things. Downright mean insults. Lidia needs to stay calm – or lose her job. I asked her, “Do you have some way […] -
Milestones or Moments? – Ask Goddess (A Witch’s Perspective)
I was concerned. I had just a week to create my 400th Podcast episode. This was so important to me… and to the listeners who have downloaded my podcast episodes over 45,000 times. Do you feel squeezed by other people’s expectations? Are you harsh with yourself about expectations? I was wracked with questions: Is my 400th Podcast Episode going to be good enough? (Eventually my team came up with this title of Meditation for Strength and Release from Anger and Frustration) Will it […]https://goddesshasyourback.com/2026/07/14/milestones-or-moments-ask-goddess-a-witchs-perspective/

Wash Away the Pain (A Witch’s Perspective)
Ever move too fast at work and bump your hand … perhaps, you SMACK your hand on the corner of a desktop computer? Owww! One of my spiritual elders developed her own ritual. After bumping her hand, she went to the employee restroom. She ran the water faucet. Cool water cascaded on her hand. In her mind, she said, God, Goddess,May this water wash away my discomfort. She did feel better. Would you feel better to have your own brief ritual to support yourself? And would you ask the God […]https://goddesshasyourback.com/2026/07/08/wash-away-the-pain-a-witchs-perspective/

Slow Down, Soul Up (A Witch’s Perspective)
My eyes are closing.No! Must stay awake.I’m exhausted.I just said to my kitten Max, “Behave yourself. Go to your room!”(His room is a special pet bed that has a dome over it.) Max has two speeds: “Berserker and off (Sleep)!”He cycles through that at least 7 times a day. Perhaps, you’ve had similar experiences.You are running, running through your day. Often, I am supporting my elderly parents through their cycle of doctor/therapy appointments—get groceries—and more.

Your Essence vs. Ego – The Goddess Knows (A Witch’s Perspective)
“I don’t want to miss an opportunity. But … but I’m shaking,” a friend, Henry, said.Henry is artistic, and he was facing a whole new venue for his art. A big opportunity.“And a big risk,” Henry said. In talking with spiritual elders … the conversation often turns to the idea of “your essence versus your ego.” Henry’s essence is “artist.” His ego is “scared guy worried about making a mistake.” The idea is that one’s ego is made of fear.

Mother Earth and Father Time, Charlotte's Web, 1973
🎵 He turns the seasons- around.
And so she changes- her gown.
But they al-ways look
In their prime.They go on dancing- their dance
Of everlasting- romance.Mother Earth,
And Fa-ther Time.🎵Happy Mabon. Blessed be.
