About Us

 

I'm Stephanie, witchy, hippie mama, living with my husband Eric (a Chef, by trade), our two gorgeous kiddos Trev (he's 20) and Maddie (she's 16) our two pups, Sampson and Lulu (or Lou, as she is often called by me), and our brand new, adorable kitten Clio.
We are a home-educating family, living in the high desert Salt Lake Valley, in Utah--which is the very western border of the Rocky Mountains.
I'm a full-time, stay-at-home Mama, and I've blogged throughout my children's entire childhood at Ordinary Life Magic.  Once in a while a post that was originally on OLM will find its way here, if I think it might be useful.

I've been studying The Craft purposefully for fifteen? twenty? years, but long before that I was learning about stones, herbs, spirituality, gardening organically, and all the lovely things that go with it.

Though my children were raised hearing me say every-so-often  "I am at least Part witch!" Maddie never took me seriously until around the time she turned 13-- and started asking about The Craft.

Since then it has become a huge part of our lives, so I figured --being me, and loving to photograph the moments and tell the stories-- that it was time to put it all here.

So here we are, me telling my and our story of journeying deeper, living this beautiful life as a soul enchanted.

Thanks for visiting.
Blessed be.  ♥

The Law of Attraction and Magick

Image
 Lately I've been studying and thinking a lot about the law of attraction, and how it relates to magick. Maybe a better -more descriptive- word would be Worry.  Much of doing magick (such as prosperity) is a pretty big statement of I Am.  In this case, I've been pondering if I Am (lacking something) is really the way I want to present and broadcast to the universe. I've known there are things... bits and insights that are almost there for the grasping.... but I hadn't taken the time to truly sort and sift and organize my way through it all.  Until now. This morning after meditation I asked "how can I (inside my head) reconcile magick and the law of attraction?" Three cards presented themselves-- Temperance, 7 of Wands, and The Star.        Tarot Vintage Immediate first flashes of thought were 1) flow, gentleness 2) defensiveness 3) magick and wishes being supported. After delving deeper, here's where I arrived: Temperance:   Flow.  Gentl...

Tea-Dyed Pages

Image
    Finally  dyed more paper today.  Every time I need a sheet, I have to go swipe one from my Book of Shadows-- and it's getting harder and harder to find pages that aren't printed upon. So today was the day!  I used the same herbs that I used for my first batch of paper: Tea for Courage Sage for Wisdom Devil's Shoestring for Power Pecans for Prosperity Rosewater for Love. I put the cauldron on the fire to bubble,   and after a satisfactory bout with that, I took it off and poured it (herbs and all) over a hefty stack of paper... maybe 150 pages or so. I lifted up the stack at various points, to allow the liquid to seep into different pages of the stack.  After playing with it and letting it be in the tea (and herbs, still) for ten minutes or so I took it out and laid small stacks of it out to dry. When it wasn't sopping anymore, I hung it up on the clothesline in small stacks.... maybe 5-15 pages per stack.  Had I thought of it, I would hav...

Soft

It seems like I've been chasing autumn this year. So many things and people and moments rushing in between me, and It. Yesterday, I was taking a moment to look at this Gorgeous World through instagram, and saw someone had mentioned snow .  Snow!?!  What!?! Naturally, outside I went. An' there it was.     The soft.  The hush.  The Still. And then--           There are countless bits of Magick in this world, and I'm so, so grateful that I get to wander through and be enchanted by this one.
