Under A Watching Moon

Aug 18

poem spiritual, poem about a witch — A poem about spiritual growth

It’s all over the place, every opportunity an upsell.
Things a guise for safety.
Though objects are but placebos,
and we wish someone knows us under a watching moon.

If only, we think, if only, we strive,
and despite all the Six of Wands,
we still, we still, we still wish someone knows us.

Our own hearts are our greatest wilderness.
And if the wild is defined as what’s uncertain, then all of life is. The “out there” is “in here”.

I had thought I had to go somewhere, where all along, among Hecate’s crossroads, I just needed to choose where I already am.

ABOUT MIMI

Hello! My name is Mimi Young, and I’m a Taiwanese Canadian animist spirit medium, occultist, and the founder of Ceremonie, servicing Los Angeles to New York and Vancouver to Toronto, teaching occult studies, as well as providing dream interpretations and spirit guidance services. Being an inheritor of Gongfu Tea and trained artist-designer, my work also incorporates the esoteric art of Tea and culture.

My mystery school combines animist folk magic with Taoist principles, offering occult courses on light and shadow spell work, divination (including cartomancy, the I Ching, and Chinese astrology), psychic development, necromancy, and witches retreats. I also operate an online magic shop carrying handcrafted magic supplies and ritual tools, including conjure oils, ritual incense, and Aura Mists to aid in protection spells, money spells, and return to sender (to name a few). Ceremonie’s Skin Care line is designed with occult science principles to enhance psychic sensitivities while leaving your skin moisturized, balanced and radiant.

I collaborate with brands such as goop and the Salem Witch Festival, and am also a poet, SEO copywriter and business strategist, and stylist. Based in Vancouver on the ancestral traditional lands of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and Sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations, Ceremonie gratefully serves a global community, while remaining rooted in animist, decolonizing perspectives and intersectionality.
