ASK THE ARCH
WELCOME TO ASK THE ARCH

What is something in your personal practice that you feel is required for you to be successful on the path?
Prayer and Meditation. I consult with deity daily and wait for answers. I follow what the Gods tell me, and I feel confident that the path will unfold as they wish. Being a priestess to me means being in service to the Gods. Prayer and meditation help me know what they are asking of me. I start with a daily devotional invoking the Gods to join me throughout my day. Then, just like with a best friend, I check in often.
What is the most important mistake you ever made?
Falling in love with someone 17 years younger than me at a pagan festival while I had three children in elementary school. But, without Dusty as my working partner, and husband, I probably would have never developed the relationship I had with Pete Davis. By Dusty encouraging me to call Pete every week, Pete and I developed a teacher/student relationship, which led to me becoming Archprietess. I also wouldn't have been nearly as happy, supported and fulfilled in what I'm doing today. I didn't mean to fall in love with Dusty, and I don't think he meant to fall in love with me. Here we are twenty years later and we're both pretty happy that we did.
