Megan Black | Rituals of Rock Bay with MA Phillips || Pagan Fiction and Magical Realism @RoundtheCauldron | Uploaded February 2021 | Updated October 2024, 15 minutes ago.
Sitting down to chat with M.A. Phillips was like chatting with an old friend! If you follow me anywhere on social media, you'll know that I am in love with her book series. Today, we talked about the inspiration behind her book, how her path influences her writing, and being a modern Druid writing about a modern Druid!
"M. A. Phillips is a writer and fabric artist in Northern NY. She lives with her husband, daughter, and three lazy cats. She fell in love with writing and sewing at a young age thanks to her encouraging, creative family. Over the years, she’s made various plushies and fabric art dolls who have found homes on bookshelves and altars around the United States. Mythology, folklore, and the landscape are her primary inspirations."

Brigid is an Irish Goddess and has mythology tied to a vast array of topics and ideas. These span from Her relationship to someone outside the Tuatha de, strong connections to the forge and transformation through fire, and being transformed Herself from a Goddess to a Saint.
But there is always more to the story, and to get that, we have to look back at Her mythology and miracles, both as a Goddess and a Saint.

I received a question on Instagram about how Im adjusting to life in Florida in regard to the Wheel of the Year, energy work, and seasonal celebrations. It got me thinking about how I dont really follow the traditional Wheel of the Year and how Ive created, and continue to refine, my own celebration calendar.

![What is consecration? - Simple ritual for new sacred tools! [CC]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/7cjgu1pWzyg/hqdefault.jpg "What is consecration? - Simple ritual for new sacred tools! [CC]
Consecration is the act of making an object sacred, but it wont always be necessary. This simple ritual can help you give your items their ritualistic purpose and make them sacred. Once an item is consecrated, it shouldnt be used for anything else!
