Everything Under the Moon

I don't work strictly within one pantheon, though there's a heavy Egyptian influence. I also work with animal allies, so I should start considering some of nature's best home finders/builders. I've done some group work with Brighid in the past, but I admit that she's never really spoken to me on a p...

So in a month or two, I'll be looking to purchase my first home. There are a handful of things that I currently do to promote a happy and healthy home/hearth, and there are even more things that I look forward to being able to do with a home/land that is my own! But I'm a little stuck on the spiritu...

Thanks for the kind words!

So this is a little late, but I haven't changed it yet so what the hey! I was struggling with a proper Imbolc altar; I knew the things that should go on it, but nothing felt true to me at the time. I was meditating at the altar space when it hit me- the energies that I had been looking to incorporat...

Unless I met the person at a Pagan gathering, metaphysical shop, meditation circle, etc., I usually don't mention my spiritual practices on the first date unless they come up naturally. When meeting new coworkers or colleagues, it's pretty standard practice among most people not to discuss politics ...

Merry Virtual Meet! So Yule was a blast. I added a bunch of Yuletide things to my home, had fun with my altar, and wrote a ritual that just felt...right. It's not difficult to find signs of the winter solstice all around, at least in my mind. But as happens every year, it seems as if Imbolc just...s...

I live in a medium city, very close to a larger city (Orlando Fl). It's a veritable tourist area, and what may be a restaurant today could very well be a pawn shop next month. While there are no occult shops/book stores, organic cafes, mediation studios, or even many small businesses near my home, I...

Merry meet my fellow book worms! I find that most books delving into polytheism (and the duality of energy in general) are all-encompassing; expressing the importance of both light and darkness. Masculine and Feminine. I wholeheartedly agree with and practice this approach, but I find that most book...

I am currently reading The Temple of Shamanic Witchcraft. I know that it is recommended to read his series in order, but my spiritual path began in shamanism, and it still retains strong roots in such practices. That is the book that came to me and seemed appropriate, so I figure that I'll go throug...

I saved it for later perusal. Thanks!

I've yet to read a book solely based on Druidry, so I look forward to reading your opinions!

Wow, thanks everyone for your kind words! They've really made me smile.

Thank you! I did not carve the olive branch myself. It actually came to me like this from a friend, who had received it from a friend himself. I figured that an olive branch passed from friend to friend has its own special quality of peace and harmony. One day, I hope to find its new owner and carry...

http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l44/Kismet_Jaganashi/Altarsmall.png This is the Altar that changes throughout the seasons. During the ritual, a small white candle was added that's shaped like a house to welcome the light of love and joy into the home. The charmed bracelet that I wove during ritua...

Happy Yule! This morning, there was an exchange of gifts with the family and a little cleaning up around the house. Tonight, there will be an observance of the Solstice, as well as personal spellwork that I've been preparing for. I'm a professional night owl to begin with (or rather, a bat), so I'm ...
