Join us Wednesday, March 22nd at 9pm EST on HK’s Discord for a meditation led by Hex which will focus on building your own, personal mind palace. This meditation is great for both beginners and advanced practitioners alike. You can join our Discord here:
Big change can start with small steps.
If you try to adopt all of these sugestions now, it could stress you out. It’s best to break down change into small chunks. That way you can reduce stress and keep advancing one small step at a time. Choose just one new change to spark some positive momentum in your life.
These small changes are not life goals — they are the lifestyle adjustments that will help you achieve your goals. Choose one that speaks to you and jump on it with both feet.
1. Do One Thing At a Time- Concentrate fully on each thing you do. If you’re writing an email, give it your full attention. Make a strong connection and feel proud and satisfied that you’ve provided its reader with real value. Find your flow state, and go through your tasks like a bullet train. When you do stop just breathe deeply and fully and enjoy the moment.
2. Schedule Some Down Time Into Your Life Alternate deep work with shallow work and essential breaks. Have a short conversation, walk around to increase blood circulation and oxygen to the brain, then go back to work refreshed after your mini-break. Use that Fitness app on your phone, telling you to stand up once an hour. Or use one of the Remindme Apps and set small timers throughout your day. Too often we forget to take a moment and decompress, then we end up with our shoulders in our ears. Put some time in your daily schedule for short breaks and/or small meditations. Remember to breathe deeply with purpose. If you rush through your day, you are inviting burnout and lower productivity.
3. Clean As You Go At work or at home if you tidy up as you go you will be surprised at what a difference it can make in your overall mood and well being. If you are at work, take the time to organize papers and clear off your desk between projects. At home, if you are cooking, rinse the dishes as you use them so that you can easily load the dishwasher when you are done. Wipe off surfaces behind you as you go. Take that few extra moments to make the bed in the morning. I know, I know! You are just going to get back in it tonight but do it! See if you notice a difference in how coming home to a tidy bed makes you feel. When you finish working at your desk, close your computer, and put away your books, notebooks, notes, pencils, and pens. They say your state of mind reflects your home environment? Or is it the condition of your home reflects your state of mind? Either way try it for a week and you will see it can make a big difference in mood and productivity.
4. Bring Full Appreciation To Everything You Do Pay careful attention to everything you do. Don’t just toss your coat on the back of the sofa or a chair as you pass through the door. Find a place and add a hook so it has a home. Put your shoes in the closet or on a shoe rack. Show respect for all the things you use daily, and don’t take what you have for granted.
5. Do One Mindfulness Practice Every Day. Mindfulness is a skill that takes practice. Meditation is a practice that has been in development for thousands of years. You cannot expect to be able to maintain an hour of meditation without practice. You will soon be snoring out of sheer exhaustion or if you are like me, going over the endless lists you keep running in the background of your mind. Start with three minutes. Set that phone timer, get comfortable, and just breathe deeply, in and out for three minutes. Focus on the breath and its rhythm. Work up to that 20 or 30-minute goal slowly. Nothing worth learning or doing is done in one go.
6. Do Things That Simply Cut through the excesses in your life. There is a lot to be said about minimalism in your clothing, home furnishings, and lifestyle choices. Throw away those old toothbrushes. You only need one for cleaning your teeth, the rest are just hanging around. Be straightforward in your communications — say what you want simply and directly. Don’t add extra meaning to things or additional layers of complexity. You do not have to explain yourself to anyone. Live simply in every aspect of your life. Show up for your life every day and be yourself!
7. Set Aside Time For Deep Work It’s hard to do anything well when you’re distracted. Deep work is the ability to focus without distraction on a cognitively demanding task. Simply scheduling time for solitary undistracted work gives you the advantage of focus. Whether you are working on a big project for your career, you are writing a blog, or if you are an artist workin on a project or piece, setting aside time to do deep work means closing that door and leaving all the other things on your mind outside till the allotted time has past or the work is done. Use that timer on that phone! It's not just for excercise you know!
8. Go outside! Step outside for at least a few minutes a day. Breathe deeply, take a short walk and soak up the spring sun! I am not saying you have to become a nature lover, but contrary to popular belief, you are a living breathing thing and those tend to need some sunlight! Suck it up my night loving friends, risk that sunlight for five mintes a day. Depression can be directly linked to a lack of Vitamin D! So do yourself a favor and put those dark sunglasses on, brave the outdoors for a few and let the sunlight burn the cobwebs from your mind.
Final Thoughts: A small change can have a significant effect. Adding a new habit to your life will spark other changes and new ideas. Stay curious and look for new ways of working and enjoying your life. Life is too short to be boring and routine. Embrace change and enjoy!
Counselor energy is an ever shifting, growing entity that fluxes and flows with the change of the seasons. As we move into the light side of the year, connections grow stronger and the pull to the corporal becomes more apparent. It is the time of life and the green growing things.
As the season shifts towards the time of light and spring, the feeling of Connection to the green and growing things intensifies. The vital energy flows in a more available pattern as the days become longer and the world seems to become more alive. Sunlight is an amazing mood and energy booster that can bring joy and inspiration to your daily life.
For myself, this time of year brings a renewed need to connect with those I care about. I seek out more social interactions and I become much less introspective. My connection to the dead and disembodied wanes a bit but is still present. It just takes a tad more oomph for me to communicate with them. My connections to the living are at the forefront of my daily life during this time. This also means I am much more aware of the creatures of the wood, land and elements. I still need to exchange energy with the human creatures, but I can also use the natural energy that abounds this time of year.
So how does this all translate from my experience into something you can use? Take time to notice how your own energy is changing. Are you feeling more awake and engaged or are you feeling sluggish and slow? The shift in seasons is also a good time to take stock of your mental and physical health as well as your energetic health. Meditation, physical activity, cleansing your physical and energetic space and enjoying nature can all be ways to expand and adjust to the changing energy of the light side of the year. May this shift treat you well and may you pull from it what you need.

The Power of Observation
It’s time again for the Midnight Sun’s monthly newsletter! I do hope that winter wasn’t too harsh for you, and if it was my dear reader, we at least have Spring to look forward to. As I write this, the days have shifted forward one hour, a bit more light in my day has done wonders for my mood.
On the magickal side of things, it has been an interesting month! With Venus moving into Aries, I’ve seen new opportunities and have met some interesting new people. Mars entering Gemini has brought some interesting challenges and revealed some potential adversity in the workplace that is being handled. Have you checked your horoscope lately? Now may be a good time. I don’t know about you, but I have been keen on a change in life patterns, and oh boy is change coming!
I’ve been pondering the nature of Deities. There is a theme amongst the worldwide pantheons, as the Gods and Goddesses took on the various forms and functions of nature. This makes sense to me, as ancient people needed an explanation for the natural world and had limited scientific understanding of the world around them, so of course their deities could be similar even across the oceans. The best way to understand something from a human perspective is to humanize/anthropomorphize those forces into a (near)human form, so as to better understand the chaotic experiences in our lives and to come to terms with the traumas that life can bring.
When we reach out with our desire, what answers that longing, that Call? Were those forces already there out in the cosmos, waiting to be called, or was it humankind’s desire for understanding and longing for connection that willed these deities into being? Perhaps a combination of the two? Your Lillith, your Zeus, your Hachiman, your Deity, is that the same as mine? Do our perspectives and life experiences mold and shape the form and determine the manifestation of these beings, or is it our perspective as observers that changes what is perceived in the first place? It would make sense to me. Is the blue hue you see the same blue as me too?~
Perhaps I see turquoise, but either way, you’re probably now thinking of “your” blue, so that is the point. Where your attention is, where your passions lie, determines what manifests. That is our power, what allows us to glean meaning from infinite chaos and what can be a boring, painful, objective reality. We are the observer, and in each of us is a unique perspective from which the Universe perhaps finds its own meaning, too.
What you seek in the first place determines what you will find. Seek your own truth and have a blessed month!
Neverending
My original goal of Slow Dancing with Shadow Work was to share my experiences around my personal shadow work journey and the knowledge I acquired through that process, but as of late I have been experiencing some major imposter syndrome, especially around shadow work. I spent the last three years delving deep into myself, looking at who I was and who I wanted to be. Along with that came a lot of changes. I got a divorce, I moved states, bought a house, went back to school, and spent hours in therapy. I fell into the pit of “I’ve got this… I know what I’m doing” and I did have it, I still do have this.
The reason I named this series “Slow dancing with Shadow work” is because that is exactly what self work is. You take two steps forward, two steps back, you move to the side, you twirl, you are bent over backward, and your feet are stepped on. But you keep moving, and even if you feel that you end in the same place you started you are a different person. Somehow changed by the music and the movement.
I have imposter syndrome because the music of my shadow work has changed. Maybe you’re in a similar place? We learned the beat, the pace, and the steps to the previous song. We knew who the partner was and we could anticipate their moves. All this gave us comfort in the process and we feel confident in our skills to do the shadow work. But now the song has changed, how long has it been that there was a new song? New lyrics, new steps, a new partner?
Taking off that “It’s fine, everything is fine” mask is difficult to say the least. I am not writing this article from some tower in the sky as someone who has it all figured out. I don’t. I am in the process of learning a new song and with that comes taking off a new mask.
We look up at the stars allowing ourselves to marvel at the brilliance of light overhead. A light emitted billions of miles away that somehow touches our spectrum of vision through the vast quiet of space. The night sky fades as a variety of hues begin to take shape with the dawning of our sun awakening us into the reality of our physical world. This correspondence to our senses, to the colours, shapes, smells, and sounds that make up our world, begins to inform us of our tactile reality and we leave the night behind.
When we talk about the light and dark side of the year, we often think of the periods of fall and winter moving into the spring and summer seasonal changes. As physical beings, we take notice of the temperature, the decay and growth all around us, and the activity outside our homes as birds migrate back and forth toward the warmer weather. We, too, as human beings begin to change our patterns of behaviour accordingly, taking refuge inside or preparing to venture out into our beautiful world to reap its benefits as the rotation of life continues merrily on. This transition, however, can become upset or delayed in ourselves as often we can find ourselves clinging to the comfort of the darkness and the quietness of the stars.
The light side of the year is often thought of as the time of action, to effectuate our goals and accomplish what we must do in the physical plane to achieve them. When so many, however, have been in a place of the long darkness, cut off from a sense of community, from achievement, from purpose, emerging into a new dawn blinking and trembling from the brightness of that new day, can bring us to pause. We struggle to find meaning, to find direction, and we look internally for the answers to questions a new world poses to us now. It is now that we find it the most tempting to regress and long for the night sky once again.
Our transition is both internal and eternal. We are beings of change and the points where we find ourselves reaching out for growth while still grasping to what is familiar is one of the most difficult points to address within ourselves. We ask ourselves the important questions of “why do I do this”, “what is it that I want”, and, ultimately, “who am I?” Stripping away the layers to find the answer is not on a deadline. We who rely so much on the ticking away of a clock, who feel as if we should have accomplished more than we have by now, often forget this important whisper we hear from that darkness.
You are on your own time. You don’t have to have it all figured out yet. You are a being of change and this, too, is a part of you. The transition into the many different versions you have been, are, and will be, happen as you learn who it is you are. Your sun and stars rise and fall within you, when you need them, and when you are ready. Forgive yourself for not knowing who you are meant to be.
So as the light side of the year approaches, as we begin to come into a more active period of the year, take time to remember this journey is for yourself. Progress forward with becoming the person you want to be, build a life for them, nurture them, get to know them, and do it on your own time. There is no progress bar in this life, it is made for you. Should you need to stop along the way to enjoy the stars overhead and take a moment’s rest and touch base with yourself, do so carrying the sun inside you looking forward to a new dawn.
Hello friends, and welcome to Tea with Hex!
March is an exciting time of year for many reasons. We begin to see the glimmers of Spring around the corner, you may be getting a tax refund, and for Kheprians, we celebrate the turning of the year from the Dark side (a time of introspection, self-work, and spiritual concerns) to the Light side (focusing on the lower or physical self, community, and the external world). It also puts us one month closer to Gather, the annual public event we host for the metaphysical community! For more information, check out https://kheperu.org/gather2023.
Transitions are a liminal time, and as a Counselor in our tradition, liminal spaces and energy are my bread and butter. Dawn and dusk, the Otherworld or spirit realm, the offstage wings of a theater, dimly lit dance floors, these are a few of my favorite things, as Maria once sang. Depending on where you fall on the continuum of occultism and esoteric study, the concept of spirit work may either be very foreign to you, or you may have some degree of experience with it. I practice forms of witchcraft that embrace and emphasize working with spirits, and this month I'd like to share some of my musings on that subject, as well as a review of a book that helped advance my witchcraft in that direction.
Newcomers to various iterations of paganism or occultism often inquire about working with deities from various pantheons throughout antiquity and regions of the world. There is much talk of practitioners feeling called to work with any number of gods, and when that isn't the experience of other practitioners, they often wonder why, and how one identifies what god(s) they should work with.
I'll let you in on a little secret, dear readers. Are you ready? No, but are you though? Well.
That might be because you don't need one.
Drink something.
The attraction to working with deities from any number of supplanted cultures or religions throughout the world is understandable, from Greek to Norse to Egyptian gods. Studying the ritual practices and methods of honoring the divine that are written down somewhere makes those practices accessible and easy to understand and emulate. We have a sort of manual describing how we might identify synchronicities and omens that could signify the presence or influence of such a being. However, gods from ancient cultures are not the be-all, end-all of spiritual experience and messages from the Otherworld.
In Traditional Witchcraft, we talk about working with what we call a "court of spirits", incorporeal beings we have passively attracted or deliberately called to us, who offer varying degrees of companionship, service, and knowledge of how to interact with the spirit realm. The concept of a "familiar spirit" may be familiar (heh) to you, or a "witch's familiar". This is one type of relationship one could have with such a being. There are many accounts throughout European and American history (many of them obtained under duress, and while this is terrible, it does not invalidate them) of accused witches describing such an entity they worked with to some extent.
In Kelden Mercury's book, "The Crooked Path: An Introduction to Traditional Witchcraft", he describes working with the Otherworld and spirits in this tradition. In addition to familiar spirits, an important aspect of Traditional Witchcraft is learning to connect with the spirits of place, or genii locorum. The physical world around us is suffused with the essence of the Otherworld as well; we're practically swimming in it, with spirits surrounding us constantly. However, as Kelden elaborates on, working with spirits takes time, reverence, and dedication. The relationships one can form with these spirits are deep and personal, and the ways to achieve this are not already proscribed for us in a book or a website somewhere. Each of them is unique, with a distinct personality, and you must open your mind to them and earn their trust. This is a very different practice than announcing your devotion to a Celtic deity and calling upon them in ritual from that point forward.
Kelden goes on to describe methods of communing with the Fair Folk, as well as the land wights that inhabit individual plants, stones, and animals; Traditional Witchcraft is a fairly animist tradition, which is evident from the amount of spirit work we perform. The entire book is an extremely accessible and digestible read, and I highly recommend it not only as an introductory manual to Traditional Witchcraft, but also an excellent resource on spirit and energy work. It absolutely helped me elevate my own personal practice, and added nuance to my approach to the Otherworld and its denizens.
Spirit work can be just as important, if not more so, as choosing a divine entity to approach and work with. Gods (in most traditions) are lofty beings that exist in some far-flung realm that we pray to for guidance and favor. Spirits are here, all around us, existing beside and behind every door, tree, rock, and lake we see. They hear and see us, and often respond to our thoughts and words without us even asking, perhaps hoping that we will see their influence and acknowledge them. I would posit that in many cases, when we think we see the hand of a divine being at work, perhaps it is simply a spirit, helping manifest our desires or providing us a measure of protection. Open your mind to the Otherworld, see and listen with your subtle senses, and you may be surprised at what is waiting for you.

Time of Dawn
EXCERPT FROM THE TOME OF THE DARKSIDE RITUALIST
It is time for the Darkside to step back. The days grow longer, the weather begins to shift, and winter claws on but spring is winning once more. It is in this time that the Darkside curls up to rest for the bright, summer days of the Lightside of the year. This does not mean that the Darkside is gone, hibernating, untouchable, and inaccessible. Far from it. Where there is the brightest light, there is also the deepest shadow.
Transitions are often difficult or they may take preparation in order to move through them more smoothly. Within the Kheprian cycle of the year, we exchange ritualists. We shift our focus. We bring our minds to the present and look forward instead of focusing within and to the past. It can feel jarring at times to transition and other times, we are ready and anticipating the shift.
This year feels like a shift we are ready for.
In my time as House Kheperu’s Darkside Ritualist, I have experienced the weight of the Darkside as its custodian but also the deep, winding paths towards healing, shadow work, self improvement, and memories. The Darkside can feel heavy at times and my time as ritualist concludes with me ready to pass the torch to those who will carry it forward, guiding us. I have hope for the future, despite the press of what can feel like a bleak present. I have trust and enthusiasm to see what comes next. A curiosity that buds to see the warming, spring light and bloom to new opportunities and possibilities.
“I have trust and enthusiasm to see what comes next.”
And yet- I will miss the Darkside. I will miss the long nights for deep conversations, pondering the meanings of things, and exploring corners of my mind. The Lightside does not mean these things will stop, but I do feel like life brings our focus to elsewhere. And that’s okay. If anything? It is necessary.
To those who take my place as Ritualist for House Kheperu, know that I am excited to see what paths you forge as you guide through 2023. Know that I am here, amusingly in the shadows, should you need the introspective energies of the Darkside. And may we all find strength and empowerment in the brighter, lighter times of the year.
Farewell. For now.

Darkside Ritualist, House Kheperu
So a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away… I had a YouTube series for like two seconds. I introduced folks to Mythologies of all kinds and did an overview of popular tales from each if the different mythos’, as well as origins for certain practices, superstitions or lore that stemmed from mythological sources.
It seemed appropriate to resurrect one such discussion for this month. So I pulled it out, dusted it off, and gave a little polish to some things that I have learned since then. I give you;
The Tuatha De Danaan
It was in a mist the Tuatha de Danaan, the people of the gods of Dana, or as some called them, the Men of Dea, came through the air and the high air to Ireland.
From the book Gods and Fighting Men by Lady Gregory in 1904, it is said that the Tuatha came from the North, bringing four great treasures with them from the four great cities of the Tuatha. First of the treasures was Lia Fail, the Stone of Destiny from their city of Falias, second was the Sword of Light from Gorias, wielded by the then Tuatha King Nuada Airgetlam, The Spear of Victory from Finias, most widely associated with Lugh, and The Cauldron from Murias, which is rumored to be the Cauldron of Dagda. It is the reason for the celebration of Beltane, as it is said Beltane is the day the Tuatha arrived in Ireland.
Upon their arrival, The Tuatha send their Hero Bres, to meet with the current rulers Heros- the Fir Bolgs - who send Sreng. They chat, and exchange Spear notes, and despite this cordial discourse, by Midsummer, the Tuatha and Fir Bolgs are at war. The Tuatha win after a four-day battle, and thus the Gods of Ireland take power.
This change heralded the Fifth Taking of Ireland. According to the record, there are six all told as per the Lebor Gabala, and the Tuatha was the last before what was called the Milesians - They are named after the character Míl Espáine, which is the Irish form of the Latin Miles Hispaniae ("Soldier of Hispania" - Carey, John. The Irish National Origin-Legend: Synthetic Pseudohistory. University of Cambridge, 1994. pp.1–4). Scholars believe that the tale is mostly an invention of medieval Christian writers. However, the Lebor Gabála Érenn translates to The Book of Takings of Ireland, and contains a collection of prose and poems outlining what at the time was believed to be the origins of Ireland. Widely regarded as Myth rather than history in modern times, the first known recording in written text is from an anonymous author in the 11th century. There are many versions that have been discovered over the years, and it seems that while much of it was Christianized once things started being written down from oral tradition, some were not.
But the Milasians is the name used in the Lebor Gabala. The name by which they are more commonly known as The Gaels.
But when they were established, who were the Tuatha de Danaan? While a few names and descriptions probably come to mind immediately for those who are passingly familiar with Celtic Mythology, I find that knowledge of the Tuatha is far less prolific than Greco-Roman or Norse in modern culture. So, we’ll start from the top.
Tuatha de Danaan translates to “The Children of Dana” or “The children of Danu”. Not hard to assume that Danu is the progenitor of the pantheon. She is associated with Fertility, wisdom, and water - rivers, wells, prosperity, and plenty. In some recountings, Bile or Belenus is her consort and the father of the gods. In others, she is the wife of Dagda. Hello, pitfalls of ancient oral traditions written down by many scribes from different orators over a long period of time!
Bel, or Bile, also called Belenas was a sun and fire god, whose name meant Shining One. While his role alongside Danu is unclear, in the stories where he is her consort, he is the father of Dagda. Then of course there’s The Dagda with his dual-headed club and Cauldron of Plenty that supposedly could bring the dead back to life, except! It was without their voices. This was believed to be so that they did not speak about the afterlife.
Lugh, the warrior god, was also associated with the sun and was far more pervasive in the surviving Myths. He is considered a later arriver to the pantheon, he was the son of Cian and Ethlinn, making him grandson to Danu/Dian Cecht, and Balor himself, the king of the Fomorians.
Dian Cecht was a healing god. He was basically God Doctor. Originally, when the Tuatha arrived to take Ireland, Nuada was their king. But according to legend a King must be perfect in mind and body, so when Nuada lost his hand in the battle to take Ireland, their hero Bres took the throne. When Bres became oppressive and tyrannical, Dian Cecht made Nuada a hand of purest silver, so that he could be perfect and rule once more.
There’s also Brighid, the goddess of Fire and metalworking, as well as a healing goddess. She was a great warrior, and now it is debated as to whether or not Saint Brigid of Kildare is actually an evolution of the same goddess.
Ogma was the god of language, writing, eloquence, and poetry and created the written language of Ireland, shown by the fact it was named for him.
Angud Og was the god of love and youth,
Bres was the god of agriculture.
Credne was the master artificer and Luchta a master carpenter.
Goibhniu was the god of smiths, his brother Cian, and Nuada of the Silver hand.
There are many Celtic Gods, even outside of the Tuatha. Those who are the children of the Tuatha and a Fomorian, and others.
But I’ve saved one Goddess for last as I think she is probably chief amongst the familiar deities from Celtic Mythology - The Morrigan. Her name meaning is a subject of debate, but generally, she is referred to as The Phantom Queen, or The Great Queen though the etymology suggests that perhaps there is more to it, sharing a similar origin as the word “nightmare”. Aka, she’s not cute nor fluffy, nor to be messed with - and Probably the one you could name before reading this. The Morrigan is a Goddess associated with Magic, Sovereignty, Death, War, Vengeance, and Conflict. Popular in neo-pagan culture, she is also personified in Keiron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie’s The Wicked and The Divine from Image comics, represented in her three most well-known facets - Badb, Macha (or Macca), and Nemain.
If you have further interest in learning more about the Tuatha De and Celtic Mythology, I highly recommend grabbing a copy of the Lebor Gabala which is fairly easy to find, as well as if you’re a REAL big book lover, Morpheus Ravenna’s The Book of The Great Queen. While it is a book about the history and modern worship of the Morrigan, the first chunk of the book covers all historical references (to Morrigan specifically BUT) and has a wonderful bibliography that I use whenever I’m looking for a new book specifically for Irish Mythology.
If you made it to the end, thank you for reading, and we will see you next month!
