Don’t Let Them Make You React (A Witch’s Perspective)

November 11, 2025November 11, 2025 / Moonwater / 2 Comments

Do you know what sells more than sex? Rage. The algorithms in social media are, reportedly, geared to make people react in anger or rage.

Anger in times of chaos is understandable.
In fact, my new book, World On Fire: How Witches and Wiccans Transcend the Chaos and Find Their Peace, has three sections on anger. Also, not-a-fun fact, the word “anger” shows up 45 times in this book.
Good news: There is a section about how to shift so you can get sleep even if you start angry.

Here, let’s talk about shifting away from falling into a reaction. When you pause and take a breath, you can make a transition to a healthy response. Not a reaction.

Breath of the Loving Goddess

Breath supports and heals you.

So, take a deep breath in, and breathe in the love of the Goddess.

Hold…

In your mind, say, “I breathe in peace. Goddess, thank you.”

Then exhale.

In your mind, picture tension, stress, and pain exiting your body as if you are exhaling black smoke out of your mouth.

In your mind, say, “I breathe out all stress, pain, and tension.”

Repeat this process 9 times.

A warning: As with any form of exercise or exertion, consult with your doctor. Some people may need to be careful about getting lightheaded or hyperventilating.

May these insights support your journey.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

Imagine What the Goddess Would Say (A Witch’s Perspective)

November 4, 2025November 4, 2025 / Moonwater / Leave a comment

“Do you think Goddess would really say that?” Susan said to Theresa—two acquaintances I know.

I reflected on this.

Do you ever pause and really listen to one of the thoughts that arrive unwelcome in your brain?

Thoughts like:

You’re not good enough.
You can’t survive now.
No one cares about you.

These were the thoughts that Susan was talking about.

Is this what Goddess would tell you?
My heart says, “No.”

Why? Goddess placed divinity within you. You are Her child.

Here’s another detail:

Have you heard that researchers point to 15% of men (in the U.S.A.) report having no close friends? That is a fivefold increase from 1990. Back then it was only 3% of men reported having no close friends.

I add this to our conversation because we all need support and even opportunities to be kind. For my readers who are covens, it creates community.

So, let’s practice putting a metaphorical “pause” on the destructive thoughts.

Ask yourself, “What would Goddess say?”

Listen for something positive.
Something supportive.
Something that inspires you to grow and enjoy your spiritual path.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

Happy Samhain 2025

October 31, 2025November 2, 2025 / Moonwater / 2 Comments

Blessings to you and all your kin this Samhain!

As so many people are celebrating Halloween, many of us are scared about real-life situations. Just in time, my new book, World On Fire: How Witches and Wiccans Transcend the Chaos and Find Their Peace, is available as an eBook and an audiobook to provide you with comfort.

Samhain

Samhain is the final harvest Sabbat of the year. At this time, the last crops are gathered and put into storage for the cold winter’s months. The God makes His ultimate sacrifice at this time. But fear not, His sacrifice is a willing one, for he does this for his children. The God is symbolized by the last of the harvest. He (the God of the harvest) is cut down (sacrificed) at this time so that we may have food to last us through the winter. The “Johan Barleycorn” songs came from this.

At this time of the year, the cattle and pigs are culled, keeping only the ones strong enough to weather the harsh winter months. The meat is then salted and cured so that the people would be able to survive the long winter.

Samhain is also known as the witches’ New Year. The Celts felt that this was the beginning of the year. The reason for this is that they believed a new life started at death. You needed to die to be reborn into a new life. That is just what the God has done with His sacrifice. He now resides in the underworld, awaiting birth at Yule.

Samhain is also the time to communicate with the dead. The Veil between the worlds is the thinnest at this time. The Veil is the doorway or curtain that separates the land of the living with the land of the dead. Contact between the two worlds is now easily accomplished. So, contacting past loved ones is common on this Sabbat. The dead are honored at this time. An example of this in today’s modern society is Mexico’s Day of the Dead.

The Wheel turns to represent death at this Sabbat, only to continue turning at Yule, to the beginning, representing life and rebirth. The eternal cycle of reincarnation is celebrated during Samhain. The old God dies to be reborn at Yule.

Blessed be,

Wait! There’s a Good Side to Anxiety? (A Witch’s Perspective)

October 28, 2025 / Moonwater / Leave a comment

“This book is pushing a wild idea,” my friend, Alice, said.

“Oh?” I replied.

“This author, Tracy Dennis-Tiwary, PhD, wrote: ‘Anxiety has evolved to make us more resourceful in the face of uncertainty,’” Alice said.

I reflected on this.

Here are two insights.

1. A Witch Looks to Nature

We, as witches, observe the seasons.

In the Fall, a squirrel gathers nuts. Does it gather while in full anxiety? “Oh! I’d better gather these nuts or I will die!”

Who knows?

Still, we can take an anxiety thought and use it as a springboard.

Anxiety-Thought: Oh! I’ll crash and burn at the job interview.
Natural Shift: “Got to prepare. I’ll rehearse with my good friend, Robin. Maybe I’ll hire a coach.”

How do you need to prepare? Then, you emerge from worry into a more resourceful version of yourself.

2. Call on the Goddess.

Here’s a prayer you can use.

Goddess,
Let me pivot my anxiety into a springboard for a helpful thought.
Help me see the opportunity in my situation.
So Mote It Be.

May these insights support your journey.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

Are They an Idiot or Semi-Idiot? (A Witch’s Perspective)

October 21, 2025 / Moonwater / Leave a comment

“Oh, no! Did you see that? What an Idiot!” I said, driving, after ducking my car out of the way of an idiot-driver.

“I’m venting,” I said to my husband.

Later, I reflected on this.

Scott Cunningham wrote: “The magic begins in you … Words and actions are used as focal points or keys to unlock the power that we all possess.”

Here are two insights.

1. Carefully choose your venting and take a look at your perceptions

When, in frustration, I called another driver “an idiot,” I was venting. But was that all I was doing?

Upon reflection, I realize that I judged that person based on one action.

What if that person was a kind teacher, who was rushing to the hospital to visit her brother, who … ironically … was injured in a traffic accident?

It is possible that perceiving one as surrounded by idiots can cause trouble.

Our words are a form of magic.

Venting for five minutes is not driving our friends nuts by complaining for two hours.

Do you vent?
Are you judging people and feeling bad as a result?

2. Ask Goddess to Help You Shift During Your Day

Here is a prayer you can use:

Goddess,
Help me shift from judgment to compassion.
Let me see the value in the other person,
Even if I don’t see it now.
Let me breathe in and out
So my peace stays all day.
So Mote It Be.

Let these insights support your path.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

When a Blackout and Flood Reveal… (a Witch’s Perspective)

October 14, 2025 / Moonwater / Leave a comment

I’m writing this as I am in a blackout with my computer battery almost dead.

Oh, wait! Just the day before, a flood caused by torrential rain and a clogged drain created a river to engulf my car. Ooooh. Urban living.

This is not a challenge. This is a problem. Well, two problems.

Years ago, many people were running around trying to replace “problem” with “challenge.”

When I had to move to this place of the flood and blackout … it wasn’t my idea. Life kicked me forward.

I need a new idea about a problem.

Here’s a prayer you can use.

Goddess,
Help me see that it’s not just a problem,
It’s a beginning.
Help me to cherish the transformation,
So I see the amazing process that is the adventure.
So Mote It Be

May these insights support your path.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater
