It’s been awhile

It has been a very long time since the coven has put anything out. Each one of us has been on quite a journey. Some of it together and some of it alone. Each really delving into why we are here.

Personally, I have been contemplating for over a year deleting this website and starting something new. But in the end I decided to keep it because I am the coven and the coven is me. And there are many things that I am being drawn to share.

Right now most of the world is in a collective great awakening. You may be feeling or seeing this right now. My guides are urging me to bring my perspective to the table. Each person learns and takes in information differently. Which means, the words in this blog may help. Even if it is just one sentence that sparks something in your soul.

I started my spiritual journey in 2012. Along the way I have experienced many amazing things. And equally released things that were holding me back. I was pulled by my heart chakra to heal my past, present, and future trauma. Eventually that led me to work on my past life, generational and  multi dimensional trauma. I found these tend to linger like a bad energy enveloping my soul. Thankfully most of that healing is complete because that leaves me with a unique perspective on what we are all collectively going through.

Around 2018, I started wondering, what I could do to help. Which is when my cousin Sharon and I attempted podcasting for a few years. When the Cousins Coven was formed I had no idea where this adventure would take me. It is what ultimately led me to healing that trauma. And also held my hand on my magical awakening. Which led me to study Enochian magic, the inner workings of auras and chakras. As well as encouraging myself to search for more meaning in my everyday life. So that I could achieve living in a more aligned space. Giving me the freedom to create my own joy in every situation. Even death.

When the podcast dissolved I started writing many many books. All of which are unfinished but hold information that eventually needs to be shared with everyone. Which I hope to do via this website. As much as I would like to sell books for a living, I would rather give the information to those who need it the most. Those who are like me. Just an everyday person working, living an ordinary life but filled with magic and awe.

Recently one thing that I have been doing in my community is performing group sound wave experiences. Where we have a group of people laying on massage tables all in one room. We start off the session with guided deep connected breathing and meditation. When everyone is in deep relaxation 1 or 2 of us start playing crystal sound bowls and other instruments. While we play 2-3 reiki practitioners are using that universal energy to help the individual on their journey. When the drums beat and the bowls sing it really brings out a frequency that can be quite life changing. It has certainly changed my perspective.

Aside from sound experience I wanted to know what else I could do to help and how far out into the world these words could travel. On a whim, yesterday while searching for spiritual retreats, thinking that might be the way I could help others, I found many people offering some amazing things. Most way out of my budget. I found someone charging $55,000 (American) for a one on one retreat. That’s more than I make in a year. I sort of recoiled at the thought that someone would be charging so much for something that should be free. I understand that we all need to make a living. However, I also have a belief that we hold the tools inside of ourselves to find what we need. So ultimately, after seeing that website I came to the conclusion, that is their journey and this is mine.

My journey so far has been to give the world magic and spiritual knowledge. Which I want to keep doing.  My goal, going forward on this website is to create a tab to different things you may be guided to. I won’t be offering tarot readings or any one on one’s. Just some tools to help you on your magical journey. Consistently writing with the magical intention that whomever needs to read this will find it.

I don’t do social media anymore. I found it to be all consuming and lost sight of what truly mattered to me. Because while my face was glued to my screen I was missing out on living in the moment. And instead was really living in my ego. So I had to take a step back and reevaluate what worked for me. And for me, I don’t think I want to go back to it at this time. The point I am trying to make is that I won’t be linking social media to these posts. Which means if you found this page you were already a follower, or something guided you to it. My hope for you, dear reader, is to inspire something in you to awaken to your higher power. Enjoy this ride because even if you don’t believe so, you are here on this planet at this very moment for a reason. And you don’t have to do it alone.

Many Blessings,

Wendy

It’s finally happening

As I type this we are preparing for a new episode! It’s finally happening. We hope to have a new episode out to you all before the end of the year. For those of you on our mailing list, we are hard at work on a newsletter. Make sure to check your inboxes because we are about to divulge what our new season is all about!

A lot has happened this past year for the coven. Both personally and professionally. We can’t wait to share all of these changes with you.

Many blessings-

The cousins Coven

Speak your truth

This is a poem I wrote last year. I then used it in a spell to gain self confidence so that I could live my true authentic self no matter who I was with. Regardless of the persecution I thought I would receive. Sometimes living the witch life in a sea or religion and religious stigma can be very difficult.

This is the time this is the place

For everything to have its own space

All of my trials all of my errors

Sits on the shoulders of all the pallbearers

The world surrounds me like a fresh set of clothes

I can feel everyone even their woes

Running and panting I hide from myself

I find a solution upon a bookshelf

A book filled with spells for potions and charms

So those around me can do me nor harm

As the day is ending and the dark sets in

The candles are lit, the spell must begin

Chanting and casting have begun to take flight

The calling of corners has contained things just right

Midnight is crowning the moon shining bright

The spell sets in as night turns to light

I know in my soul life is changing fast

Because of the spell that I had just cast

Now to end the worries and doubts

I stand on the rooftop as I begin to shout

Mote it be, mote it be, mote it be

May you find happiness in your heart, love yourself and joy in each other. Blessing to all

Wendy

Craving Balance

I really wanted to share my Corona virus journey with everyone. In today’s environment I find myself working on things that inspire me to live through adversity. What does that look like? Well, for me that allows me to look at what is in my life and what I can work on. Living in the middle of a pandemic, helped me see what it was that I was needing in my life. That was balance. Right now I have been granted an opportunity to achieve balance. Balance in my every day life. I feel like a balanced life comes different for everyone. Some people thrive in the midst of chaos. Others need rigid structures. And some need a little of it all. I fall into the category of a little of it all. My current surroundings helped me see what it was in my life I was currently doing. I saw my day filled with tasks. I was literally staring at a daily to do list of massive proportions. I thought in order to achieve happiness I needed to really work for it. Then I started to see that I needed to scrutinize this list a little further. I asked myself, which of these tasks is essential. So I took that list and I narrowed it down. I found the things that were absolutely essential. The mind, the body and the spirit. That gave me the opportunity to see that in order to create an overall balance of my life I needed to start creating balance in my mind, body and spirit. I started by creating a balanced space for my body. What does creating balance in the body actually mean? Am I eating right? Am I getting enough sleep? What stress can I alleviate? Am I responding positively to those around me? Once I answered those questions and adjusted my diet and exercise, It was then I could see that my body was balanced. That took less effort than I thought. Up next the mind. I thought this would be easy. But, the truth is that through growth you have to see with extremely open eyes. From previous experience I realized that I really was not having a good mindset. I was seeing through the eyes of fear, quite often. When I really wanted to be seeing situations for what they are but with the eyes of love. Because I was able to alleviate my task list and reduce the list to just the essentials I could see that I was able to take daily shopping trips , driving people different places, travel to and from work, and many other things off my list it meant I now have the time to see who I really am through the eyes of love. That meant being more mindful about my responses to others. Knowing to listen more. Also knowing that I have a difficult time listening in the moment. Like on podcast I am constantly listening to the words Sharon is saying and then I turn around and attempt to multitask so that I can think about what I am going to say in response to something I was only half listening to. So once I realized all of my deep dark sides, I could see that my mind was in balance. Because I was able to remove the thoughts that were essential. I looked at my responses through the eyes of love. Which led me to realize that our current circumstances that I actually could have a balanced mindset. I realized that Love and fear can work together as long as fear outweighs love. Alright, so at this point my body and my mind are in check. But, my spirit was still a little unbalanced. Knowing alone that I could see that, helped me see that I had lost my ability to focus and my ability to have joy. So I dropped my mind and body down to the essentials. This method of removing essentials wasn’t really how to create balance with the spirit. Dropping down my task list I was granted the time to enjoy myself. Which I hadn’t done in awhile. It allowed me to create art, to commune with the spirits, to tap into the earth and become grounded. It let me just breathe. And it was in that moment I realized that for me, a balanced life is living in the moment. And living in the moment feels really amazing. It means that I can let go of the the things that I have held onto from my past. It means I don’t have to fear what is going to happen in the future. It only means that I am here, present in this moment. Writing these words to you. What helps you create balance.

May you find happiness in your heart, love for yourself and joy in each other. Blessings to all.
