Greetings, fellow hobbit!

Sarai Ora

I'm an eco-pagan polytheist and artsy cottage witch in the Pacific Northwest. I write about goddess worship, pagan parenting, and spiritual ecology (there's some poetry thrown in there too). You can also find me on YouTube or on Instagram.

I've looked forward to this for so many years, for so many lifetimes. To choose my little one before anything else. To center my reality on welcoming a new Sacred Being to this planet. To show her the way through the woods. To bestow her with a sense of destiny. To give her the tools she needs to be a steward of this garden.

A little poem inspired by the sculpture & art of Julia Adzuki (who I am so thankful to have learned from in the forest guardians course with @advaya.co !)

I'm making new things

🌼 Here's what my #tarottuesday looks like: a deep dive into my anxiety around "next steps." More specifically... Why am I finding it so hard to live in the present? What preoccupation is causing me to always need a plan, a next move, a strategy? When was the last time I simply enjoyed my life as it was, and relished the moments in it?

It looks like we just might get a reprieve from the drought today. I felt a single raindrop on my forehead, and I'm just grateful. Our apple trees are going to be key for preparing baby food this year, especially since we had to prune the bulk of our pear trees and will lose over half their fruit. Sourcing my daughter's nourishment directly from these trees made me think of this quote from William Makepeace Thackeray, about the strangeness of having lived old ways in new times. As Isidora grows, I hope to pass this to her - a farm to table experience in the middle of a city, a gratitude for Idunn, Pomona, and the many goddesses of the trees that nourish us.
