Let's go over the science of it all and the metaphysical! I talk about tips on how to manage getting through this cycle.

Valentine's Day & Lupercalia
Valentine's Day and Lupercalia are two celebrations that are intertwined by history and legends. Valentine’s Day. When I think of this over commercialized holiday, images of candy hearts, roses, and chocolates come to mind. To be honest, I’ve never been a big fan of this particular holiday due to the commercialization of love and advertising programming the masses to believe that gift giving equals love. Love every day, not just on one specific day deemed necessary by modern capitalism.
But that doesn’t mean that this can’t be a fun and important holiday for you. It does remind us to express our affection for those whom we love and that is never a bad idea.  Since I’m a research nerd and I absolutely love the history of our modern day holidays and the anthropological details regarding them, so I felt today we shall dive deep into the history of this day of eternal love; Valentine’s Day.
Let's look at this day's origins with some Roman history and their celebration of Lupercalia.  This was celebrated at the Ides of February, or the full moon, which was around February 15th.  Let's dive into this bloody holiday and find out how the hell it came to be morphed into the hearts and flowers celebration it is today.

Imbolc, Brigid, And I'm Sick Of Winter
Imbolc is the beginnings of Spring and when some pagans celebrate the Goddess Brigid. It is a celebration of Winter being half way over and Spring coming! Let's talk about this turn of the Year of the Wheel and learn a little bit about the history of the celebration.
Also, I'm sick of winter in Nebraska. It is cold and icy and I am getting a bit whiny about the whole thing. I miss sunshine, green grass, and flowers. Most of all I miss being able to go ride my horses. Yup, I'm being a bit of a baby but I'm owning it.

Lilith And Mental Health
Today I introduce you to Lilith and talk about my mental health. Before we get into the amazing Goddess Lilith, I’d like to share something with you all that I decided to do a couple weeks ago.  If you’re a listener from the beginning, I’m sure you know I have been trying to manage depression.  I made a decision about how to move forward and I share that with you today.
I also share my experiences and some history about Lilith. Lilith, for me, is the original feminist. She embodies self confidence and empowerment that I absolutely love. She was the original Queen of the Garden of Eden, rocked the status quo, and is the caretaker of all that are lost and downtrodden. Her energy is something I’ve been reaching for a lot the last six months or so. I don’t like politics so I won’t get into any of that, but, here in the US women’s rights has had a bit of an attack on them for the last couple years and Lilith feels like the energy to call on.

Pendulums And How To Use Them
Let's talk all about pendulums and how you can use them in your practice! One of the first ways I ever tried divination was with a pendulum. This tool helped me decipher my intuition vs my human ego voice. It also takes the interpreting work out of divination with the possible answers to questions being limited to the function of the pendulum. 
I'd like to share a little bit of history I found on them as well as what they are.  Also, I'll go over how I like to use them as well as some other information I found on them that you may want to try.
