Out With the Old, In With the Enchanting New! Discover the Spellbinding Changes That Will Ignite Your Inner Witch
For a few years I've been trying to tidy up the blog, which has been online since 2009. It's been through different iterations of my main website, from Talia's Tarot to Lucky Temple to Hoodoo Online. As requirements to make the witchcraft blog "mobile friendly" also had the unfortunate effect of making it more difficult to search through the posts, there was good reason to simplify the content. It had built up over 600 separate posts at its peak, with no good way to search through them except by keyword. Originally I intended to delete nothing, but only to merge posts about similar subjects so they'd become easier to find.
However, as I've been going through everything, I've been finding more and more old posts that were primarily about sharing some news article to which the link is long dead, or talking up some now-defunct spellcraft company. At some point, the only sensible course was to hit the delete button.
As of this writing we're down to about 390 posts. Most of the material has been saved, but outdated links and posts that were talking up long-gone iterations of my site or my books had to go.
In the process of streamlining the Spellcaster's Source blog, I've also taken the opportunity to refresh and update some of the content. Over the years, my understanding of magic, witchcraft, and the spiritual realm has evolved, and I wanted the blog to reflect these changes. As I revisited the old posts, I found instances where my perspectives had shifted or where new insights had emerged. This presented a chance to add depth and clarity to certain topics, offering a more comprehensive resource for both newcomers to the craft and seasoned practitioners seeking fresh perspectives. The posts about the Intranquil Spirit especially show these updates.
Of course, maintaining the blog's integrity and credibility remains a top priority. While I've removed outdated posts and broken links, I've made sure to preserve the essence of the original content that has stood the test of time. The foundational knowledge about folklore, herbs, tarot, and other magical practices that many readers have come to rely on is still present and even enhanced.
Looking ahead, I'm excited to continue expanding the blog's horizons. Occult sciences and metaphysical practices are in a constant state of evolution, and I intend to keep pace with these changes. From exploring the intersection of modern psychology and ancient mysticism to delving into the practices of lesser-known magical traditions, the Spellcaster's Source and Hoodoo Online will remain a dynamic resource for those seeking to harness the power of the unseen.
In conclusion, the journey of revamping the Spellcaster's Source blog has been one of reflection, growth, and adaptation. By reorganizing and updating the content, pruning away the obsolete, and infusing new life into timeless wisdom, the blog stands as a testament to the enduring nature of magic in an ever-changing world. As we move forward together, I invite you to explore the revamped Spellcaster's Source, embrace the knowledge it offers, and contribute to the ongoing discourse that enriches the global magical community. Your journey of discovery and transformation awaits.
