Re: Vervain's Journey

For Hallowe'en I dressed myself in violet and in black, I wore large jewels in my ears and a coat upon my back. I celebrated Samhain Eve with a simple, silent supper, with beets and beer and Spirit Guests, more "magickal" than "proper." On Samhain in the Morning I went to Cedar H...

Re: Vervain's Journey

10.29.2013 I might edit these slightly. I want to expressly invite Hela and Odin into my life. I believe Hela has already made herself known, but I would like to ask them both for a sign if they are with me. I believe I have seen them (esp. Hela) in the dying squirrel, the decaying rat skeleton... e...

Re: Vervain's Journey

10.28.2013 I have thought this for a while but have just mentioned it to Shawn, as I remembered for we were listening to Alice . When I die I would like a gravestone, and I would like it to say, "The rain makes such a lovely sound, to those who are six feet underground." Alice is full of i...

Re: Vervain's Journey

10.22.2013 Death is a recurring theme lately. last night it was not on purpose, i thought of it twice. Shawn and I played Farkle, and when we were done I leaned over and he kissed me and it was the most wonderful kiss, it might even have outshone our first kiss for me but I don't know--it was the mo...

Re: Vervain's Journey

10.18.2013 I was helping someone on the EUTM forum yesterday find more information about Odin, and as I was typing out his entire entry from Judika Illes' Encyclopedia of Spirits, I think I began to realize a few things about myself and why I am drawn to Odin (and Hel and Persephone, etc.). I think ...

Vervain's Journey

So far almost everything I have to say on this is just a record of my experiences/travels/etc during meditations, but this seemed like the best place to put it as they are quite long and detailed and probably not really relevant to anyone else. All the same, I wanted to share them and put them out t...

Re: Whittled Idols

Here is Huginn! All three together: http://i.picasion.com/pic75/1da221a853f19ccca57d28f793263197.gif And just Huginn: http://i.picasion.com/pic75/63333fd2c90b22f7cbb25b28f4381f9b.gif I hope you enjoy them! I was amazed, Muninn took me sessions over 3 days to carve, and I finished whittling Huginn in...

Is REM during Meditation possible?

I've done some searching online and have found a few other confused souls like myself, but I couldn't even properly tell if they were experiencing the same thing as me. What happened is... I had tried to meditate many times before and kind of just gave up on the whole idea until it occurred to me th...

Re: "Found" Altar tools

I get a lot of my pieces from thrift shops, they're so great!
I was definitely admiring your ivy candleholder, not gonna lie I am a little bit jealous of that find. :)
Beautiful setup! I like all the white and clear, but everything just looks so good together.
Thanks for sharing!

Re: New to Lenormand

Thank you very much, CharlyC.
Of course, most of this is what I already knew somewhere, but the encouragement/reassurance is really good. It's good to hear from someone who does regularly read Lenormand. When I'm ready I think I will try out the free readings section.
Thanks again!

Women of the Northern Tradition

I didn't write this and I don't know who did--it was passed on to me by my former boyfriend, an Asatruar. ------------------------ The Nine Noble Virtues may have been given to the men of The North by the Gods to live by, but it was the women of The North that most faithfully extolled these nine vir...

Re: Aphrodite's Altar and using The Lovers tarot card

I would say not bad at all--if you only put it back in your deck for readings, and frequently leave it on your altar to charge, then you would even be bringing her energies into your readings--helpful for you, and a nice way to honor her, I should think.

Re: Return to me.. If a part of you still wants to

I like that you leave this very open so as not to interfere with free will. I did something similar once. A connection definitely opened, but nothing ever really happened, which I was actually glad to see because it meant that my spell had worked AND hadn't messed with free will. I would be careful ...

Re: Shadow's Altar

This is a lovely setup. I love how you're using the castle! And the wand is really lovely... I'd love to see the one you carve, though, when you're done!
