From Dr. Halo Quin Notes of Love & Magic (Join The Enchanted Academy for classes, meditations, & more here!) Hello lovelies, Happy Lammas, Lughnasadh, Calan Awst, and Imbolc for my Southern Hemisphere folk! Here it's the start of the grain harvest, and Leo season is in full swing. The rowan berries are out, turning the small dark trees brilliant red, and, as I write this, the sun has burned away the cooling clouds to bake the stone paths that wind through my town, and the tourists have...

Hello lovelies, I'm settling back into life after my adventure weaving lunar magic in Italy and reflecting back on some of the powerful experiences and beautiful magic that was shared. One piece was on shapeshifting, a skill that has fascinated me since I first discovered, aged 11, that there were adults who also believed in magic and I wondered; "If witches are real, are shapeshifters...

Next week I am heading over to Italy to teach at a Lunar Witchcraft Retreat, I'm busy reconstructing a myth of Diana, and writing class outlines for Shapeshifting, Scrying, and Working with the Fairies. I haven't left Britain for about 9 years so I'm nervous and thrilled in equal measure. I've missed adventuring to...

The summer so far has been a whirlwind of performance and magic, just the way I like it! It started with my storytelling persona, the Faery Doctor, and it is such a wonderful experience to be able to share magic with people that would probably not call it that, or indeed identify as pagan. There is such healing in stories, and the way they help us rest in that...

From Dr. Halo Quin Notes of Love & Magic (Join The Enchanted Academy for monthly classes, meditations, & more here!) Hello lovelies! Beltane-tide is already in full swing for me, how about you? Here's a round-up as we move into May... I shared some impromptu musings on Instagram, with a mini-ritual for Beltane that you can watch here if you like, to soak up some of the summer sun energy. I love to tread that line between performance and magic, story and spirit-work, so on Beltane Eve I...

From Dr. Halo Quin Notes of Love & Magic (Join The Enchanted Academy for monthly classes, meditations, & more here!) Hello lovelies! We are fast approaching the Equinox... which in my part of the world means spring is in the air! And this month has swept by rather speedily, so my apologies for the delay in sending this. Last weekend was the Goblin Masquerade and I was rather wrapped up in event related things, and then recovering this week, so thank you for your patience at this slightly...
