In this episode, the Crone & Sage discuss how formal consecration of items we may end up with for our rituals and magick isn’t necessary because we believe that everything is already sacred. However, we also think that items carry energy “imprints” from their travels before they end up with us and that these items can benefit from a period of acclimation before being used. Whether they choose to keep these energies, such as something a maker has brought to an item through their creating, or discard those that don’t mesh with their own nature, giving them time to figure that out can be beneficial. In our Practices segment where we talk about what we do and how we do what we do, a lively discussion about where we may choose to work magick is available. We also include a New Perspectives Quarter Quick Spell in honor of the upcoming change into the Times of Beltane. Finally, the Sage discusses how sometimes our path may be smooth and easy and other times it seems as if we are moving through a jungle needing a machete and that we may need to take some time to understand why.
