Like most years, I began 2025 through a personal process of awareness and calling for an animal ally for the year. Imagine my surprise when I found not one, but two: the cat and the crow.
Traversing the Realms in 2025
Cat
The deep connection to Bastet last year made Cat a little less surprising, but the form brought me to my knees. It was my little chunky girl (who tragically and traumatically for me) passed away before Friendsgiving last year. I thought her purpose was to teach me about mercy, but the more I listened I recognized she taught me I must be willing to surrender. To let go.
I will never have full control over the cycles of life and death, hers included.
Then Crow appeared.
Crow
Those that know me well understand that if it has a beak, I’ll probably freak! Seriously, chickens, turkeys and ducks are a no go. I am not interested in being super close to birds, even if they are pretty to look at.
Crow is somehow different.
Crow wants me to understand how to traverse the realms of life and death. To be comfortable in spaces of the unknown, Crow wants me to learn to communicate better in between through natural Crow language.
It is to remember the languages of the wild world, all of them being natural.
Crow says a Witch that Knows is one that never stops being multilingual or practicing such language.
2025 for Witches that Know
If 2024 was a pivot year then it was also the great set up for Knowing Witches in 2025. The way we communicate, the way we walk in between, and how we face our collective towers crumbling reinforces the need for the language of perseverance, community and of course defiance.
Cats and Crows don’t conform and I’m looking to 2025 to see us continue embracing that same energy.
