Are you a compassion warrior, culture worker, and rebel who cares deeply about humanity; who's tired of doing all the “right things” and still getting what you’re trying to avoid; and who feels trapped between burning it all down or dying but would rather be wildly, and sacredly alive? I'm an animist and ancestral wisdom guide; ceremonialist, and empath. And I love guiding other humans who want to use their burnout and purpose anxiety as a jumping-off point to journey into their shadows and the shadows of modern society in order to de-armor their hearts; remember a deeper, wilder sense of belonging to the world; and reclaim the rich and sacred spark of their aliveness. This newsletter contains wisdom nuggets, podcast episodes, and invitations to paid and free offerings from my business. All in support of remembering a more animist and land-based culture; holding firm to our humanity in a dehumanizing world; and living with compassion, vulnerability, and reverence.
Happy Lughnasadh! (harvest holiday bonus 🎙️ ep)

Hello, dear ones - We're entering the first round of eclipses and about to start a new lunar cycle so things might feel energetically charged in the next week or so. Old patterns may be coming up for a final release or transmutation. Whatever can't come with us into the next cycle will be under review. "No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it's not the same river and he's not the same man" (Herclitus). Let yourself be different. Trust that the unknown might be better than the known....
Hello, dear ones - Happy Imbolc/ Imbolg (in the Northern Hemisphere). According to the cross-quarter harvest festivals, we are now officially in the light half of the year and life is beginning to stir in the belly of the Earth. Lambs and calves are beginning to emerge from their mothers. Bear cubs are being born in caves. And the great hag of Winter, the Cailleach Beara, is beginning to give way to Brigid (or, in some versions of the story, is dying and being reborn as her). In Brigid's...
Hello, dear ones - I write to you from the floor of a friend’s house outside of Santa Fe where I’m staying warm by lying in a sun spot and trying not to doze off to the sounds of wind rattling outside the house and the dog snoring near me.
