EmberVoices
My name is Ember Cooke. I serve the Vanir - Freyja, Freyr, and Their kin - as a priestess, minister, teacher, bard, artist, medium, and witch. Or to put it the Heathen way, as a gythia, galdrakona, and seidhkona.
My personal practice is more diverse, as the Vanir have lead me into cross-training, interfaith work, and counseling for the wider Pagan community as needed. My friends and allies may span the world, but it is the Vanir I love as family. -E-

Love Will Come
This song has been running through my head for weeks now, telling me to admit my bias. I may need to make a rule that I will not do divination on the question “Will I find love?” I admit, in … Continue reading

Valley of Flowers
Perlandria said, “One of the grace names I heard for our home when growing up was Valley of Flowers.” I should put off this post until mid February, perhaps, as that’s when the flowers will return in force. I’m curious … Continue reading

I still owe my Lady Clare 9 entries for the Month of Written Devotion I had to pause in the flurry around Many Gods West. But the reason I haven’t returned to it already is that those prompts were just … Continue reading
