Walking my priestess path

I’m excited to start using the blog on my website and to share my life, experiences, musings, and creativity with you.

Let me tell you a little about myself. My name is Jamie Lynn—I'm an Aquarius sun, Leo moon, and Libra rising (with Aquarius and Scorpio stelliums in my chart). I'm a curious, creative, and deeply spiritual person. I vibe on the witchy side, working with nature both spiritually and creatively, and I commune with spirit regularly. I am currently walking the path of the priestess and am in the first year of my priestess initiation.

Walking the Priestess Path

My priestess journey is one I’ve chosen to create for myself, rather than being led by a specific priestess school or class.

Now, I don’t look down at all on those who choose that route—it’s wonderful to have that option, and I myself would love to attend a priestess school. But it’s just not in the cards for me. I’m meant to create my own way and carve my own path into this ancient wisdom through experience and study.

Also, let’s be real—those priestess schools are hella expensive, and I don’t have that kinda scratch. I don’t blame them for the price; this path is intense, and there’s a lot to learn, heal, and grow through. Having it all mapped out can be such a gift.

But if you can hack it, studying and devoting yourself to the priestess path doesn’t require formal schooling. What it does require is your devotion and commitment. This is not a path to be taken lightly—you must

honor it every single day. And lemme tell you, once you walk this path, the universe will not let you forget it.

The Temple of the Mother

The path I walk honors an archetype of the Divine Feminine each month, and I refer to these honorings as Temples. Each month, I focus my rituals on healing, understanding, and embodying that archetype.

This month, I’m in the Temple of the Mother—the archetype of nurturing, compassion, emotional wisdom, and unconditional love. I’ll be honest: I was not looking forward to this month. I carry deep mother wounds I wasn’t exactly eager to face.

But after processing through ritual, meditation, energy healing, and talk therapy, I’ve found myself much more at ease within this archetype. I’m still a little apprehensive—I can’t quite help it. This temple has already been, and will continue to be, full of tears of release and renewal. And crying gives me a headache.

The Path Forward

Though this path has its rough and overgrown parts, it has been an honor to walk. I’m grateful for the wisdom and lessons that continue to come my way, and I’m excited to meet the woman I become at the end of my year-and-a-day initiation.

There’s no expectation for where I’ll end up on this path—the journey itself is the destination. I know that sounds kinda hacky, but it’s true. And it’s a truth that applies to all paths.

This, however, is my path. And I look forward to sharing more of it with you.
