  1. Conflux ritual themes

    ritual seasons

    Blazewing Eyrie (the place where I live with a few others) has been running events for over ten years now, for most of that time doing a full cycle of 8 rituals marking the solstices, equinoxes, and days between them. These were always meant to be community events, and they’ve gotten more “community” over time, with those of us at the Eyrie always looking for more ways to include more folks in the process, by offering speaking parts and having regular “Tributaries” meetings between rituails, where we discuss ideas and logistics for the upcoming ones. For 2026, We’re taking a big new step, inviting those folks who are interested to take on even bigger roles, crafting and performing the rituals themselves, with help from us rite-tenders to make sure everything is the best it can be.

  2. Spirits in Autumn

    This is the last in a series of posts reflecting on how my experiences of the spiritworld changes throughout the year. It feels like this is just about the last possible moment I could reasonably have done one for Autumn, but there still feels like something to say. In general I’m really glad to have done this series, because of how it helps me get perspective on the living world around me, and also focus on my own journey through the seasons.

  3. Spirits in Summer

    This week, I was reminded that it’s about time to continue my seasonal series, talking about the spirits in and of the summertime.

  4. Spirits in Spring

    This week’s prompt from Trace:

    I want you to write about spirits, and how they handle the changing of seasons and temperature in spring. This can include lots of spirits, especially local ones of the earth and plants and waters, weather and sky, but it certainly doesn’t need to just be about natural ones. If you have feelings for city spirits and how they handle the season, that would be good to include as well. It’s a time of change, and I’m sure many have very strong opinions about and reactions to that.

  5. Spirits in Winter

    prompt seasons winter

    I've started doing regular writing prompts, from folks close to me. This week’s prompt came from Trace:

    I want you to take some time to write about spirits in winter. There definitely seem to be spirits that you get closer to during the wintery season, but it would also be good to talk about spirits of the land and how they respond to it. It might also be worth reflecting on how spirits react to winter in different places and compare them, with the places you have experience with.
