I’m Ivy Selene (Dawn in the non‑witchy world): a modern witch, moon lover, writer, and spiritual work‑in‑progress who believes witchcraft should feel like coming home — not like passing an exam. My path has always been rooted in intuition, spiritual healing, and everyday magic, and everything I share here is shaped by that lived experience.
Before stepping fully into this creative, witchy chapter of my life, I spent twelve years working as a spiritual medium, intuitive healer, and paranormal investigator. During that time, I gave thousands of readings, supported clients through energy issues that often showed up physically, worked as a Spirit Rescue Medium, organised Mind, Body & Spirit events, and ran two successful, award‑winning spiritual businesses. Although I haven’t focused on that work for a couple of years, it shaped me deeply — and it still weaves its way through my writing, teachings, and intuitive guidance.
Here at Ivy Selene Writes, I explore the things that matter most to me: intuition, healing, witchcraft for everyday life, the messy bits of becoming, and the moments of clarity that sneak in when you least expect them. You’ll find spiritual musings, gentle guidance, witchy lifestyle content, and the occasional sassy nudge when you’ve forgotten who you are again.
It’s spiritual, but grounded. Witchy, but never performative. Honest, but never heavy for the sake of it.
This space is a cosy corner for modern mystics — a place to pause, breathe, grow, laugh, reconnect with your intuition, and rediscover the witch you’ve always been… the one who’s been waiting patiently under all the noise.

In a world buzzing with notifications, deadlines, and endless noise, it’s easy to imagine spirit guides as something ancient — beings who belonged to candlelit rituals, sacred temples, or the quiet of old forests. But the truth is far more intimate and beautifully ordinary:
A deeper guide to grounding, reconnecting, and reclaiming your inner calm.
Saturday is one of the most quietly powerful days in the witch’s week. It doesn’t shout like Monday. It doesn’t sparkle like Friday. It doesn’t hum with Sunday softness.
Today we enter Freya’s Day — yes, Friday is named after her, the Norse goddess of love, beauty, desire, magick, and fierce feminine sovereignty.
Let’s be honest… most of us are pretty good at cleaning our physical space. We hoover, we wipe surfaces, we light a candle, we mutter “this house is a tip” while dramatically throwing laundry into a basket.
Intuition is often dismissed as a soft, whimsical thing — a flutter, a hunch, a whisper. But intuition is one of the most sophisticated systems your body has. It’s ancient, intelligent, and backed by real science. Your intuition is not random. It’s not imaginary. It’s not “woo‑woo nonsense.”
A gentle, grounding practice to restore balance, soften the mind, and return you to yourself.
