New Year. Clean slate. Fresh spirit. Before you call in abundance, love, peace, or purpose—you have to make room. You don’t pour fresh water into a dirty glass and hope for the best. Spirit works the same way. If you’re serious about starting (or restarting) your spiritual journey this year, step one isn’t manifesting—it’s clearing. Clearing old energy. Old habits. Old emotional residue. Old attachments that followed you way too far into the year. Let’s get into it. Step One:

Manifestation isn’t a January-only hobby. It’s a lifestyle. Too often, people light a candle on New Year’s Eve, make a wish, and then wonder why nothing changes by March. Real manifestation follows rhythm—the same way nature does. Seasons shift. Energy evolves. And your spiritual tools should move with the year, not fight against it. This is why working with monthly intention rituals—sprays, oils, and candles aligned to the calendar—creates lasting results instead of short-li

Kwanzaa is a week-long cultural and spiritual celebration honoring African heritage, community, and collective responsibility. It was created in 1966 by Dr. Maulana Karenga during the Black Freedom Movement in the United States as a way to reconnect African Americans to ancestral values disrupted by slavery and colonialism. When Kwanzaa Is Celebrated December 26 – January 1 Each day honors one of the Nguzo Saba (Seven Principles), lighting a candle on the Kinara to reflect gr

A sacred slowing-down, a holy hush, a return to the old ways. Before Christmas had carols on repeat and glitter everywhere, there was Yule—an ancient midwinter celebration rooted in survival, reverence, and hope. Yule begins on the Winter Solstice (around December 20–22), the longest night of the year, when the Sun appears to stand still… and then, quietly, begins its return. Yule is about rebirth, light from darkness, ancestral memory, and intentional rest. Not hustle. Not n

The Winter Solstice marks the longest night of the year—a quiet threshold where darkness reaches its peak and, without fanfare, begins to loosen its grip. From this moment forward, the light slowly returns. Not all at once. Not in a rush. But faithfully. Ancient cultures across the world honored this turning point. Long before calendars and clocks, our ancestors understood that rest is not failure—it is preparation. The earth itself models this wisdom, lying fallow beneath fr

Beelzebub is one of the more mysterious figures in biblical texts. Though often associated with Satan today, his biblical mentions are actually quite limited—and specific. He appears only in the New Testament, primarily as a figure invoked by critics of Jesus, accusing Him of using demonic powers. Let’s dive deeper. Biblical References and Interpretation Matthew 12:24 “But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, ‘This fellow does not cast out demons except by Beelzebub, the p

Sometimes a name echoes through history like a storm that never quite passes. Beelzebub is one of those names — dramatic, ancient, and often misunderstood. Folks throw it around like it’s just another title for “the Devil,” but the truth runs much deeper, older, and far more fascinating. Let’s walk through it together — grounded, respectful, and honest — the way wisdom has always been passed down. Ancient Origins: Before the Demon Stories Long before Beelzebub became linked t

Thanksgiving rolls around every year with its warm colors, big plates, and that annual puzzle of “Where did all my Tupperware lids go?” But beneath the cinnamon, the turkey, and the soft glow of family time sits a story that deserves to be told honestly — because healing never comes from pretending the wound wasn’t there. And yet, even with the complicated history, this season can still be a time for grounding, honoring ancestors, blessing your home, and finding spiritual pea
