Monday Musings
Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving Weekend. We had an eventful one. Between turkey on Thursday, the Yule tree on Friday morning and camping Friday night I feel like I have gotten a lot accomplished this past weekend. This being followed by decorat...
Post-Samhain Musings
Samhain is past and the Christmas Creep is well underway. I can't believe that the Yuletide decorations are already out in the stores, in some cases they have been out since last week. But that is our world that we live in. This past Sabbat was abou...
Monday Musings
October is already here. I know, I know technically it has been here for three days but now it is only four weeks until the week of Samhain. So I wanted to take some time to talk about his upcoming Sabbat. Samhain is a Sabbat that focuses on the Anc...
After Mabon Musings
Today was a mixed day. I attended an Asatru blot which was absolutely fantastic. I could almost see the bonds of frith growing stronger between us. Frith is very hard to define but it is what family is all about. When you are around good friends or f...
The Origins of Wicca
Lately there has been a rash of articles on Witchvox concerning the origin of Wicca. Whether Gardner made it all up or did he actually get his knowledge from the New Forest Coven. The data cited runs from historical documents to a claim that a woman ...
Musings this Litha
Went to a community circle and while I did not join in circle (I had my youngest daughter with me and the ritual was to long and the heat index was to high) I still celebrated in my own fashion. With good fellowship, good food and good mead. For me ...
Thirteen Goals of a Witch - Keep Your Thoughts in Good Order
Continuing on my series on the 13 Goals of a Witch we come to the one, 'Keep Your Thoughts in Good Order'. So many people fill themselves and the world full of negative thoughts. We obsess with how bad things are instead of focusing on the blessings ...
What is Bealtaine?
Beltaine, or May Day, falls on May first and lays across the Wheel of the Year from Samhain. While Samhain is about the separating of the energies of the Goddess and God, since the Goddess goes into the Underworld, Beltaine is about the integration a...
My Thoughts this Ostara
Another Sabbat has come and gone and I still can't believe how fast this year is going by. Ostara is a time for new beginnings and a time for renewal. So I want to make an effort to grow readership and add subscribers to my blog. But I can't do this...
Friday Musings
Here in Florida, where I live, it seems like Spring is already here. The weather has been approaching the mid 80's, except for that freak cold front earlier this week. So I can't look around and begin to understand how it is in the Northern states to...
Romantic Reasoning
Yesterday I covered Classical Reasoning, which is best described as the modern state of science. We catalog and create without a moral compass to guide us. For anyone that thinks that this type of reasoning is the only correct path all they have to ...
Classical Reasoning
Or as Eckhart Tolle put it, 'The Inner Self'. To begin my multi-part series on achieving a life of quality and presence I figured that this woud be a good place to start. The generations leading up to mine were obsessed with success and progress. Th...
Friday Musings
I know this has been a week of odd posts but it has been a truly odd year, one that is running by fast already. So I am going to finish this week with another odd post. First I wanted to say that I know I am having a problem with the images on this ...
Children and Rituals
One of the questions that was put to me in the last month was how do I take my solitary and eclectic practice and boil it down to something that I can do, first with my family and second with my young children most of all? So I figured I would try t...
Our Technological World
I am currently reading Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: An Inquiry into Values (P.S.) by Robert M. Pirsig, which I highly recommend by the way, and there was a passage in the beginning that caught my attention. The Buddha, the Godhead, resi...
It is 2009!
I can't believe that another year has come and gone already. I have been saying for a few weeks now that this past January seems as close as a month past. It has been a busy year, chock full of excitement and new things. I have found new family in Wi...
My Thoughts This Yule
Hope all of you had a Blessed Yule! Just got back in from a long holiday weekend out of state. I met some friends that are now family for the first time and am sad that I had to go. We spent the night before Yule keeping vigil over the Yule fire and...
