  • Writing in the New Year

    Time isn’t real, but our practices are. In honor of Land, the Garden Salon follows a solar calendar. Recognizing the solstice and equinoxes, our planet’s shifts throughout its orbit of the sun, as changes of season. Your wisdom and relationship to these times of years is always welcome at the Garden Salon. This Wednesday, January…

  • We Need the Garden Salon

    Taking our art into our hands can save the world. I disagree that this is a rise of fascism. Imagine if I had been putting dog shit under your dinner table for 249 years. One day, I decide to start put it on top of the dinner table instead, would you call that a rise…

  • New Offerings at the Garden Salon

    Loving hearts are maintained through practice and reciprocation. Despair is all around so many of us who have been tuned in to the horrific acts being committed in Palestine by israelis and americans, Congo by the M23 mercenaries backed by israelis, Sudan by the RSF and SAF backed by the UAE. And if you are…

  • Get in Babes, We’re Reading!

    Lucy Parsons said, ““Anarchists know that a long period of education must precede any great fundamental change in society, hence they do not believe in vote begging, nor political campaigns, but rather in the development of self-thinking individuals.” This line from Parsons lecture The Principles of Anarchism, is one of my major inspirations for the…

  • Crawlin’ towards the Worm Moon

    In the words of Leslie Jordan, “Well shit.” Everything is still happening all the time. Violence against so many of us. We keep going to work/school/produce. What are we doing? Is there any way to break out of this hellscape? Absolutely. I am attempting a Moon Devotion practice on Mondays. Where I will share musings…

  • Introducing the Leftist Lullaby Podcast

    I’ve hatched a new baby for the sleepy heads, freedom dreamers, and lover makers! Rest as resistance was a gift given to me in 2018. A woman I adore shared the Nap Ministry with me; though I’d been following the Instagram account, I had not really taken in the message until she told me about…

  • Chasing Rage Away

    In February, you are invited to embark on an exploration of the emotion rage. Infamously known as a “secondary emotion” stemming from hurt, rage is something people are taught to conquer, hate, and be ashamed of. I have always felt guilt about getting angry. That changed when I listened to angry women and started to…

  • Knowing over Owning Shame

    Mine is an invisible weight. A mess of a ball of stuff. It hangs in my body like a sogging rock, suspended in a cavity in my spirit. Shame feels like being pulled down and uncertain if I can get up. Shame has never lasted forever. When shame arrives, anger makes a good cover. Somehow…

  • The Price of a Free Fuck

    Response to the prompt: If the government and money did not exist, how would you have sex? I would lay under an oak tree. Naked, away from the roots protruding from the soil, still held in the shade. Dappled light spotting my brown body. Sprinkled by big black ants that drop from the trees. I…
