Hurtin' deep

Not wanting, not hoping, not expecting, yet you came

Ethereal fog in the mist, you slipped past the defense

Fences, walls, and pits you drifted past as if nonexistent

At the perimeter you stopped, going no further

Enticing you wait my emergence….I awedly obey

You stole my heart and whisked it away

Hid it from me to keep as your own

Like Gollum with his precious, I became the enemy

You used it and abused it yet loved it all the same

Then you… Continue

Yule is upon us

Merry Yule season Everyone! I have to admit that this year has turned out to be a tough one, but I am optomistic about the new year! I am at a very significant time in my life. I am learning a deep lesson about myself and relationship to my husband. He is a wonderful kind accepting Man and I am honored to belong to him. I can feel myself changing.

Tribes vs. Communities

I recently heard a fellow talk about tribalism as being a very instinctive, primitive form of interaction. He stated , we are evolving beyond tribe to community. This was from someone who is not familiar with the current use of the word "tribe" to actually mean community.

So what's the relationship between "tribe" and "community"? A tribe is certainly a community, but a community may not be a tribe. To me, a tribe is more tightly connected. A community means those who are around you,… Continue

Nehalennia (Dutch Sea Goddess)

Little is known about this goddess, but GardenStone of Boudicca's Bard (who is from the NL) is writing a new book about Her. It's great that Heathens around the world are coming together to research the various gods.

We are nearing Yule, and Nehalennia is considered to be one of the 'matronae' honored during Mother's Night. An interesting thing about her is that she has no mythology - yet her worship is attested to by the presence of many votive altars (one is pictured above) with… Continue

There Is Only Down For Me

Here's a little something from a festival two years ago - a very rainy festival, most of which I spent in my tent. And, oh, how we needed the rain in that Georgia pine forest.

There Is Only Down For Me

There is only down for me

Compelled, impelled, propelled to fall

Gaining mass and purpose, stealing moisture from the sky

Through cloud and shroud and shadow

Joined with others of my kind

'Til I can't tell where they end and I… Continue

HOW TO ATTUNE TO THE WICCAN TRIPLE GODDESS

Step1

Wait until night has fallen and the moon is visible. Go outside where you won't be disturbed. If it's difficult to find such a place near your home, an open window where the moon is visible will work.

Step2

Bask in the moonlight, concentrating on the energy of the moon and the goddess. Let her fill your spirit as you reach out to her. If the moon is full, visualize the goddess in her guise as Mother. If the moon is new, visualize her in her Maiden aspect. If the moon is… Continue

Pagan in the Paralegal Department (Episode 27)

First off... I would like to apologize for not keeping the blog updated in recent weeks. For lack of a better description, things just have been absolutely insane.

It is really terrible when the author has to flip through her last entry to remember what happened, because so much has come to pass. I will do the run down of what has happened in recent weeks.

After the elevator incident, Hound and I were doing good. He understood that on some weird level he did care and I… Continue
