Protection and Purification Chants
These are Chants for Protection and Purification. The first one is by Scott Cunningham and is for Protection:
Thrice around the Circle's bound, Evil sink into the ground. Very, very effective. I don't know who wrote the second chant, but it is for Purication of your home. You need some sage to burn or copal to burn on a charcoal brick. Light ( Read more... ) -
Drum Circle
Tonight, Bill and I are doing a ritual of drumming and dancing, in the African tradition. We get together every Monday night to do this and we love it. I don't dance (I walk with a walker), but the drumming totally soothes and uplifts me and touches me at a soul-deep level. It is a great way to connect with Spirit, whatever or whoever you ( Read more... ) -

Singing, Dancing & Drumming
Yesterday, Bill and I performed the most beautiful ritual. We decorated the alter with candles, pictures and icons, and other personal items that held special significance to each of us. We listened to a CD of African songs and drumming to which we danced and sang for almost an hour. What an amazing spiritual experience! We have done trance ( Read more... ) -

I sorrow not, though the snow falls hard and deep. I sorrow not; this too shall soon be ( Read more... ) -
What happened to separation of church and state?
I was at a party last night put on by a government agency and almost the entire entertainment for the night consisted of gospel songs and sometimes, even some preaching. One woman asked for all the Christians in the group to raise their hands. Needless to say, neither Bill (my kindred spirit) nor I did. I just think it is so wrong to assume that ( Read more... ) -
The Sentinel fandom and fanfic
I just read alyjude's email regarding the "Dead Sentinel Fandom" and it has really struck a chord with me. For over 10 years I have been enjoying the works of great authors in that fandom and have contributed very little fanfic myself, other than my short time on the Sentinel Angst List (a long time ago). So I am going to try and start writing ( Read more... )
