Re: Some Tips on Starting a Coven

In my group the hierarchical order is what determines the core group and ultimately the "Council". The order is more of a stepping stone system to ordination. It thus far hasn't created any jealousy or other riffs, is does point out that these people are on a path, and it takes 3+ years to...

Have you seen the Morphing Black Holes???

Hi folks, I have had an experience several times on the hike out to our ritual hill. As I stroll along the path, I can see definite shadows, black spaces, that you can't see through, with irregular shapes and edges. They tend to hang about three feet or higher from the ground, and their shape change...

Re: Elements

I have always had a fascination for fire and been pretty handy at making fire burn. It is just like second nature. Go figure I am a Sagittarius, with three planets in sag. Fire lives in me, It is really the element that propels me, keeps me moving...motivated, and anxious for the next day. If you ar...

Re: Grave dirt

yes,.. always... leave an offering when removing something, with a clear explanation to the Gods of the intent. Hair is good in a pinch, tobacco is my favorite, blood when you can, and the Goddess always likes an offering of ale! Dirt collected from the general grounds of the cemetery can be used in...

Re: Solstice and Lugh

yes,...thanks Sym, Lugh can be called on whenever you want him, and indeed his Holiday is Lughnasadh, but his aspects do change as you move around the wheel. Our group actually has him in the east, for it is His "Shinning Brow" that skirts across the land every dawn. BB Firebird

Solstice and Lugh

We are once again on the cusp of the day of greatest energy. The Celtic God Lugh reigns high in the sky with his flaming red hair flying all about and touching our fields with his fertile warmth. Lugh is a Fire God that makes everything fecund. Ask him to bring his seeds of "becoming" to y...

Re: Healings without permission?

Its been said that when sending healing energy it should have been asked for. You don't know what path your recipient is on. Perhaps a lesson of healing is one that needs to be discovered on their own.However, I see no harm in sending White Light that they can use as they please.

Indeed we knew it all when we were young, and if we think we are wise just because we are older, ha! we will never know it all. Tolerance begins with the self at all levels. The young to tolerate their elders words of experience and the old to tolerate the impatience of the young. If one ever ceases...
