Welcome, Witches.

This all new meditation series is devoted to the archetype of the witch. Why, you ask? Well for starters, it is spooky season, but perhaps more importantly, because the witch archetype is especially potent for those of us grappling with reclaiming our personal power. 

There are so many ‘types’ of witches: the kitchen witch, the green witch, the water witch, etc. And,all of these sub-types refer to the place or activity where we source the majority of our power. 

Today’s episode is devoted to the Kitchen Witch:

In ancient Greece the word for “cook”, “butcher” and “priest” was the same -‘mageiros’- and the word shares an etymological root with the word magic.

– Michael Pollan

The Kitchen Witch is one who finds her power in the kitchen. 

• She is deeply committed to nourishment - with a cauldron bubbling and tea brewing 
• She is drawn to family recipes connecting her to ancestors
• Her ingredients connect her to the earth element
• And perhaps most importantly, cooking on stove or hearth-fire, connects her to the alchemical power of fire. 

Fire resides in the belly. It is the heat of action, of purpose, intention and passion. It is also the fire that burns the ghosts that haunt us.

This fire is directly tied to the heart space, the home of air/breath/spirit, this is where our caring, compassion and love originate. For the kitchen witch, these two domains are intimately linked - our fire transforming our love - making love manifest.

Join me for today’s episode devoted to the alchemy of the kitchen witch complete with a 20-minute guided kitchen witch meditation and a custom-made kitchen witch soundscape from Nick McMahan. Enjoy!
