ABOUT ME
I grew up on 40 sweet and wild acres nestled along Maryland's coastal bays where I spent my childhood running free in the marsh, playing with fiddler crabs, and listening to the murmurs of the wind through the tall reeds. In that place my Witchcraft was born, closely partnered with the Spirits and Beings who, whether seen or unseen were deeply felt as they received me with rich welcoming.
These days, as an urban witch, I serve the fierce Spirits and Beings of a very different place, a place where the soil is corrupted with lead and the water choked with raw sewage. My devotion to Baltimore is tied up with my awareness that, historically, being loved and desired by white people can be fatal for a neighborhood, a region, a continent, its people and animals. I am trying to teach myself, and my ancestors and descendants, how to love without having to possess.
I teach in the Reclaiming tradition, as well as help plan rituals for Baltimore Reclaiming. I often think things and very occasionally, I write them down.
