What is Pagan Homeschooling? Well, it is many things. In this instance, it’s home education that aims to merge a “Spiritual” ,“Holistic” and or “Natural-Magick” level into the curriculum. There aren’t any dogmas involved. This style lends more toward the “Eclectic.” For instance, there are so many “paths” to get to that “one” divine destination… why adhere to a “limited” vision? OPEN up…expand your Creativity! Be FREE!
Subsequently, it’s very vital to join Self into the cosmic of knowledge, wisdom, and life experiences. Thus, naturally…this associative style supports and fosters learning. This style provides “natural-opportunity” to view the interconnection each “subject” and or “moment” has to our mind, body, and spirit.
Hence, children start learning from the moment they are born, we are their first and most important teachers/guides. And, within the womb they do feel…they have a conscious…they have a “connection” to that energy…that being, they have known for months. Moreover, it is our duty as parents to continue that cycle of knowledge, compassion, and structure.
In the same manner, each child learns in a “unique” way. That should be Celebrated… and Explored as they progress on their journey. Consequently, each child will be , and should be, exposed to many different views on this journey. There are numerous paths within the Pagan way of life. For example, a list is as follows:
- Native American/American Indian
- Shamanism
- Wicca
- Neo-Paganism
- Celtic
- African
- Buddhism
- Hinduism
- Druidism
- Taoism
- Shintoism
- Eclectic Paganism
- Egyptology
- CreoleMagik
The list can go on and on….thus, they are Free to choose which way their Spirit connects…with no Dogmas involved. Naturally…to be at one with individual spirit is a gift… nurtured via the Pagan way of life.
Blessed Be…

As I anxiously await the birth of my 3rd child…I find myself preparing spiritually for this life passage we call childbirth. It is a sacred journey.
I believe there is “more” to life than what our senses perceive. There is a level of wonder which transcends ordinary consciousness. Moreover, bringing forth a new life into this human sphere is the most powerful calling that anyone can do. I feel honored. Without this passage…we simply would not exist.
There has always been a “Magickal” power of women to create new life from within ourselves. Just like “Mother-Earth”…as she produces life from nothingness.
The light and Magick of new life is a healthy human experience. Within the birthing experience, we meet with an opportunity for personal transformation. Be aware of this miracle growing inside. Hence, there are many paths on how to still our mind toward this consciousness…toward this divine within. This is the state in which deep transformation can begin…just by being. If we focus while giving birth…it can and will truly be a transformation for our mind, body, and spirit.
We need be conscious of our nutrition, of our physical health, and with those who make up our support system. If we can find a way to concentrate on the relationship of our experience to the archetypal “Mother-Earth”, we can deepen our own journey, thus sharing that strength with those we come in contact with.
In the breath of Iemanja…we have an ocean in our womb. And, within that ocean life begins again and again-developing from this one tiny cell to an independent conscious being. All of creation is happening from within our body. We are all of creation.
Blessed Be,

I am often asked, “Why do I call myself a Witch or practice witchcraft?” I simply say, “I have always known that I was a witch…a practitioner of Earth and or Natural Magick”. I have always known witchcraft as a path that draws primarily on the Element of Earth and the honor of Nature. A path composed of the elements Earth, Air, Fire, and Water.
Incidentally, it was not until I was much older, than that young child, that I realized what the “magick” aspect of witchcraft was molding my psyche into. You see, the magick that I hold so dear projects my natural energies (such as personal power); all to bring about that needed change. In psychoanalytic terms, ”Transpersonal Psychology” in this instance, that magick is the balance created between mind, body, and spirit. Consequently, magick is a natural, not supernatural, practice.
In regard to the Elements, I speak of more than just the physical elements. For example, each element symbolizes our physical, spiritual, and emotional attributes.
Consider each element is their natural state; thus, examining within yourself what spiritual and or emotional aspect you connect with them. For example,
- AIR is the element of the mind. It stimulates intellect, inspiration, and imagination. It contains the ideas, knowledge, dreams and wishes. Air aids us in visualization, a technique that is very important in magick.
- FIRE is the element that promotes change and passion. It cultivates creativity, motivation, will power, drive, and sensuality. Fire encourages sexuality, both physical and spiritual. Fire governs all candle magick.
- WATER is the element of emotion and subconscious. It is love, purification, intuition, compassion, family, and mysteries of self. Water accentuates psychic ability.
- EARTH is the element of stability and of the body. It contains the wisdom, strength, growth, and prosperity in each of us. Earth Fosters the physical earth and the very heart of life.
- Spirit is that which permeates all things…It connects us to each-other…to the divine-energy.
So you see, being a Witch and practicing Magick is a Positive! It is a path of self-knowledge, a path of peace and light.
Blessed Be,
