Storm Faerywolf sends off the Samhain season with a tribute to his grandmother, whose spirit has guided, protected, and urged him onward on both sides of the Veil.
“Whether in public, or in secret, we need to oppose this regime with everything we’ve got,” writes Storm Faerywolf as today’s No Kings protests gather around the world. “And since this is a publication for Pagans and Witches, this means magic.”
“Whether the killer turns out to be on the Left or the Right,” writes Storm Faerywolf, “this is a clear example of how Republican compassion is strictly compartmentalized, available for conservative straight white folks but patently denied to anyone else.”
In magic we strive to fulfill our mundane needs in a magical way. Using herbs, stones, bones, or other curio (along with prayer, energy work, and intention) we attempt to conjure forth the hidden spiritual properties within those items to create an environment that will protect us from whatever harmful influences we may encounter.
“Things are much worse now than they were even just last month,” writes Storm Faerywolf in a fiery response to his critics. “But to the ‘conservative’ Pagan, this is just what the doctor ordered, apparently. Shame on you.”
