BEGINNINGS

“There will come a time when you believe everything is finished. That will be the beginning.”

--Louis L’Amour, Lonely on the Mountain

Some quotes you hear and think you understand…but if you don’t feel the quote, you have no idea what it really means.  When the above quote found its way to me recently I had reason to think back on two beginnings, both of which were part of my path and one of which is the reason I felt…

This December marks the one-year anniversary of the night my goddess appeared to me after two decades of willful neglect of my beliefs.  On that night she was guide, counselor, and interventionist.

I woke up yesterday feeling really weird.  I was hyper sensitive to everything and everyone.  I kept noticing little things like people looking at me and how close they were.  I had no clue what was going on, everything just seemed high strung.  Well, later after class, night had fallen and what happened to be the moon's phase?  You guessed it.  FULL MOON.  So I performed a little ceremony and offered some of the excess energy to the Goddess.  I feel much better.

Moon Facts

The moon has long been regarded as a mark of femininity. In past times the moon was revered and is…

    One thing I have noticed since becoming an overactive member of various wolf communities is the significance of the moon. This goes beyond the standard issue statement of "me big wolf, me howl at bright thing in sky now". Those that take their spirituality seriously within the wolf communities tend to recognize the moon as important, for multiple reasons. There are, of course, people that experience psychological and physical reaction to the full moon and dark moon. You've all heard it,…

Last evening I was chanting Aradia's chant while gazing at the Moon shining brightly, and in a moment clouds came surrounding the Moon, creating like a figure of woman (goddess) with crescent moons at the sides... That was really magical moment...

 I just wonder, was it any sign for me...

The Sun in the Underworld

   For many of us we are use to viewing the sun as male ans the moon as female.  This view comes to us from the Classical myths of the Greeks and Romans, who ascribed to the same gender distinctions for these celestial bodies.  Modern Wicca keeps in line (to some extent) with this same view.  But when we look to world mythology it becomes apparent that the sun was just…

The main invocation to the Morrigan in this ritual is based partly on a beautiful poem a friend of mine wrote about the Morrigan.  You can find it here:  http://www.witchvox.com/poetry/dt_po2.html?a=usnm&id=23211

The Moon. It casts a silvery glow across the landscape, and yet we still have to squint to see. What is behind the tree over there? Was that something that moved?

When we see by…

The expression of the seven planets in relation to each other formed the foundation of astrology. The active mechanism of their expression, that is the energy that affects change, is the equivalent of what Lucas termed "The Force". Hence, he wanted the main characters in the original film to personify the seven planets of the zodiac with their interactions with each other acting as the driving force behind the story.  And…

I was surfing the net, chatting with friends, and suddenly looked outside, and saw that the sunset was near. I tend to get sudden urges or compulsions to do something like take a walk or call a friend. I almost always listen to that little voice that tells me to do it, and it always ends…

             It's been awhile but the path I have choosen is still my own. My spriitual friends are few. So, as I learn. I also yearn for the interactions of others. I miss learning from other coven members, exchanging ideas and stories. Where am I now? I am going to start at the beginning and start anew. I am open to any and all comments or suggestions.…
