How It Started

It Started With a Spray

The woo has always been home. As a kid I made "potions" out of mud and rocks and talked to trees. (Who didn't?) As an adult who's sensitive, empathic, a Pisces sun and a Reflector in Human Design, I started to feel just how much I soak up in public spaces. I needed extra support, so I started making my own protection sprays.

I shared them with friends. Then I brought my spray into ceremonial spaces. Soon it came everywhere with me: one in my car, one in my purse, and one on every altar in my home. The Modern Altar is me letting the witch within play with elements, scents and formulas that support anyone who feels called.
