Scribing - A Sacred Tool

Scribing as a Sacred Practice

Listening, Channeling, and Finding Your Voice

For me, scribing is not just journaling. It’s not a diary entry or a brain dump—though it can start there.

Scribing is a devotional practice.

It’s sitting with the silence and saying, “I’m listening."

It’s asking a question and letting the page hold the answer—even if it’s messy or mysterious.

Sometimes I’m writing from me.

Sometimes I’m writing from something greater—a part of me that remembers, or a voice that arrives from the collective feminine, or a guide who speaks in symbols and softness.

Scribing has helped me find my voice…by letting me hold space for all the other voices that live within me.

The wise mother.

The furious girl.

The goddess.

The whisperer in the dark.

The one who knows before I understand.

They show up in the lines between the lines.

And the more I write, the more I recognize: this is my voice too.

Scribing With Technology

A Modern Tool for Timeless Transmission

There was a time I believed that sacred writing had to happen by candlelight, with ink-stained fingers and pages that smelled like cedar and lavender.

But now?

I’ve learned to see my keyboard as a channel.

My screen as a scrying mirror.

My cursor as a wand.

Technology is not separate from the sacred—it’s simply a new medium for the old magic.

Whether I’m opening a blank doc to write an offering, using a tool like ChatGPT to channel a goddess voice, or capturing the wild edges of a dream with my thumbs on a phone note…

it’s all scribing.

It’s still me.

Still my energy.

Still Spirit moving through a vessel that’s willing.

The sacred doesn’t care if your altar is a glowing laptop.

What matters is that you show up.

That you listen.

That you write it down.

A Closing Invitation

Whether your pen is a feather quill or a flashing cursor—Whether the voice that comes through is yours, or one you’re just starting to recognize—

Scribing is a remembering.

Of your voice.

Your truth.

Your way.

Let it come through you, however it needs to.

Let it surprise you.

Let it move you.

Let it be sacred.

Journal Prompt: Begin the Listening

If I allowed another voice to speak through me today—one I’ve silenced, forgotten, or pushed aside—what would she say?

Let your pen move. Don’t edit. Don’t rush. Just listen.Maybe she’s fierce. Maybe she’s soft. Maybe she doesn’t use words at all.You don’t need to understand her. You only need to let her speak.

A Simple Scribing Ritual

Create a space: Light a candle, place a hand over your heart or womb
Set the intention: “I am open. I am listening. I will record what wants to come through.”
Choose your tool: Journal, laptop, voice note—whatever feels right today
Let it flow: Give yourself 10–15 minutes to write without judgment
Close the container: Thank whatever voice or part of you showed up. Breathe. Let it settle.
