I am a Witch of the Wild Kind. I am also mother, wife and householder.
I do not set items upon my Altar to signify the Elements because they are all
around me. They are within me. I may not call upon fire with flair when casting
my Circle but I certainly pay reverence when lighting my stove. I honor the
wood that serves as my fuel and the rain that helped it grow. I know without
the oxygen to feed the flame, the fire would soon die out.
If I can stop and take time for these small rememberings, I can connect
to the sacred in multiple ways, several times a day. Rather than waiting for a
Circle cast or a spell to be writ~ I can make tea; a perfect blend of Earth,
Fire, Water and Air~ and I the Spirit that takes it all in with gratitude and
prayer. I can make bread. The dough taking shape on my wood stove can be an act
of magic. Infused with prayerful thought and loving intention with wheat of the
earth and water to integrate. Add to that the warm air to rise and the fire to
bake it and we have a blessed menagerie of elements combined. I can make Love.
My breath grows heavy, the heat builds, bodies dripping sweat...
