"Humans have long tried to figure out the way of bees, but we are limited in our ability to truly know all the secrets and mysteries of bees because we aren’t bees."

Since Finding Refuge came into the world, it has been a cradle of support for grievers.

It is a tool to support your heart and an offering from my heart.

Community is a powerful antidote to what works to deprioritize our wholeness and humanity.

Community is medicine.

Community is life.

Community is a resource.

Community is generative.

Community is who we are.

"Dominant culture asks us to normalize the harm it creates as it marginalizes people instead of framing what is happening as traumatic."-Finding Refuge

None of this is normal.

It is deeply heartbreaking and harmful.

I offer meditations, rituals, practices, and more on Patreon. It is a wonderful way for you to support creatives who offer medicine to the world.

I just shared a meditation focused on Brigid and Imbolc, divination, and a time to practice yoga and meditation with me.

Yes. It’s a coup and a shit show. But then I looked up, even though that movie said we shouldn’t, and I saw this, Venus and the moon.

I trust Venus.

I trust the moon.

I trust the wild and unexplainable cosmic plan that is unfolding.

May it please unfold with the least suffering possible.

Thank Goddess for the practice my refuge is for me and others.

What are your practices?

How is your practice holding you now?

As promised, I am offering some stories from Finding Refuge now and for the foreseeable future.

Amid the chaos, we can remember our dignity and humanity. May it be so. So it is.

Charles is writing a new album as we speak. Whiskey and Bananas will be out sometime in the spring. That’s what it has come to—whiskey and bananas because what in the hell is going on? I’m holding on. Not eating bananas or drinking whiskey. Holding on and hanging with Bacchus.

All three hives were buzzing about in the sun this afternoon.

It is nice to have a break from the bitter cold. I think a lot about how the bees survive the bitterness and cold. They cluster together, flap their wings to generate heat, and keep each other warm.

If the bees can do it, so can we.
