eckoning: with ourselves, each other, the ancestors, and all beings. We commit to our best efforts as reputable, reliable, and resourceful accomplices in the struggles for collective liberation, and to exemplify solidarity and embody relationships of mutual aid. We aspire to extricate ourselves from the bondages of all systems of oppression, to emancipate the stolen power held hostage within them, to heal the harms wrought, and nourish the generative desires of bequeathing a living world to our descendants. We commit to transparency and honesty, to learning over achievement, to reviving the love of the body, to giving attention to the realms of the spirits, and to supporting each witch learning their own way with magic. We gather to blow over the bones, call in the supernova, and infuse the spells of resistance and resonance for alliance with, and allegiance to, the beyond human life of this world. We call councilway to dwell in contemplations of our power – immanent as well as unearned – and become agile and responsible with and for it, as we bring the fortress of empire down. We befriend shadow, find companions in good deathing, conjure blessing-offering, believe our magic is real, and enspell holy questions to compel action.
