The Mother of Rebellion

Hello, Friends!

I just returned from teaching at Free Spirit Gathering and it was INCREDIBLE both personally and professionally. Something cracked open there that better allowed me to see the path ahead. Now I just need to do the work of manifesting it.

Darkflower - and the budding Lilithian Community I work with - are about to expand. Teaching at FSG led me to receive interest for me to teach in a wider area. And a lot of guidance came through about what's next. I can't wait to share it all with you!

In addition, Lilith classes on video are about to be offered, and several other new projects for 2027 are in the works. It is now a time of asking The Mother of Rebellion to help strip away what does not serve so that things have room to grow.

I have been writing furiously on The Book of High Places and now need some help. I am looking for two long-term readers to act as test readers for the next book in The Spiral Pathways Series. If you have read Wyldwood through Bonewytch AND the two Birdie MacLeod books and are willing to help, I would very much like to hear from you. I have about 200 pages of The Book of High Places ready to roll and would love to have you read and give me feedback on the next stage of Alex and Saorsa's journey. This book is a strange one. And I so hope you enjoy it. Please send me a message through the site and let me know if you are interested.

In other news, I will begin leaving video blog posts here on the site starting next week to say hello and keep you all in the loop as this magickal journey continues. And I have been encouraged to start a Patreon as well, so I am going to look into that. Lots of thumbs in pies, lots of community building, and lots to do as Darkflower forges ahead!

CLASS and EVENT UPDATE:

Had THE TIME OF MY LIFE at FSG and am already counting the days until I can apply to teach there next year as a Community Share presenter. It also looks like some lovely people I met there have set the wheels in motion for me to come teach Lilith in Wilmington and Baltimore next Spring (post knee-replacement surgery this winter!)

There was SO much energetically going on that it is taking me a few days to recover and get into the swing of things. But in the meantime, here are UPCOMING EVENTS!!
