Hail & Welcome to A Is For Agrimony
Plus That (Somewhat) Silly Poem From the First Episode
Now that Episode 1 & 2 of A Is For Agrimony have dropped, I’m putting my feet up and breathing a sigh of relief for a sec. It’s been quite a whirlwind of my own making! I’m not complaining, though. In fact, I feel pretty amazing right now... BUT from the moment I decided that I needed to listen to the inner voice relentlessly trying to guide me in this direction, I’ve been very busy at work.
I built a website - welcome, I hope you like the new place - to house my new blog, act as a home base for the new podcast and any show related undertakings, provide a place for spells and any important details I may share on the pod and, hopefully, launch the coven shop I’ve been wanting to start up for some time now. That was step one and, as I type this, I’m realizing I don’t need to bore you with every detail of how I got to this point. Suffice it to say I’ve been meticulously planning (utterly possessed by my Capricorn Midheaven), executing, replanning and executing again - all BEFORE Mercury Retrograde. So cheers, witches because I’ve finally arrived!!
So, Hail and Welcome to A Is For Agrimony: Coffee-Stained Notes on Witchcraft. I truly and honestly hope you love it as much as I loved creating it and will continue to love feeding it with fresh content. I’ve created a monster!
If you’re here, I can safely assume you listened to at least the first episode and made it through my recitation of the nursery rhyme style, alphabetical ode to witchcraft that helped inspire the name for this entire undertaking. So here it is in written form, for your pleasure or vexation. Enjoy or wave your first.

that carry my desires

fed to the fires.

vital and strong

on nights that are long.

I am the witch
for whom J stands for Justice

but witches knows better.
To new beginnings we fly.
