Welcome to Witchcraft & Metaphysics!
This is the realm of relating with Magic, where we’ll explore all of her curves and crevices. Together we will infuse our practices with relationality, and come into community with one another along the way. We’ll have more questions than answers, as is usually the way on the relational path. The main message here is that we are never alone, and we are profoundly loved by the spirits that are all around us.
Why the name ‘Witchcraft and Metaphysics’?
This is a place where the magical webs of witchcraft and metaphysics are woven together. It’s a little of both coming together to make its own thing. It’s the practicality of witchcraft partnered with the deep pondering of metaphysics.
When these two worlds come together, they create a unique and powerful force. Witchcraft can be used to harness the power of nature, while metaphysics can provide a deeper understanding of the universe.
This is a sacred, liminal space. A place of Magic.
Magic wears many faces and tends to come to me most often as the ancestors, spirit guides, and the great powers of various deities. I can’t wait to share what these beings have taught me, and I look forward to hearing from you about the faces of Magic in your life.
Who Am I Anyway?
Hi, I’m Jenna. I’ve always been a spiritually-focused person, but about 20 years ago I got very sick with a mystery illness that damn near killed me. After being told by doctors that nothing could be done for me, I spiraled into despair. Then I heard a voice that told me that I had a choice: I could choose to die (and that would be perfectly fine; no judgment if that was my choice), or I could choose to heal myself.
I am not one for personal heroics. Nor do I care at all for the patriarchal paradigm of “push through the pain.” I am not a fan of physical suffering. Not one little bit. When offered that choice, I was quite inclined to choose to die. If it meant an immediate end to being sick, I thought, “Sign me up.”
But it wasn’t so easy (it never is). I had a young son who needed me, not to mention many others who preferred that I stick around for a while. So I took a deep breath and said, “Okay, I choose to heal myself. Show me how.”
That began a decades-long deep dive into spiritual practice and healing. I became certified in several spiritual healing modalities, and, as is always my way, I made these teachings completely my own. It became clear that I was meant to share my path of healing and so I worked with clients on an individual basis, as well as led groups of transformation and healing. For the last five years, my healing work has been focused primarily on working with the dead. My path is also that of a priestess and, as such, I am committed to a life of devotion.
I have built relationships with numerous spirit guides over the years, and my journey has been one of trying to consistently answer their call. I screw that up a lot. Everything I teach and write about has come from my successes and failures at answering the call.
Who is this substack for?
Whether you are just beginning your spiritual/magical practice, or are seasoned at your craft, this space is for you! If you’re interested in throwing perfectionism out the window and, instead, coming into real relationship with Magic (even if it gets messy), then this is the place for you. If you want to be part of a community that explores life in relationship with spirits…that accepts the elements as living beings…that venerates ancestors and ancestral ways…and that has a sense of humor about all of it…then you have found your home here.
Come and explore the magical webs of witchcraft and metaphysics, and let’s create some goodness together.
