I've been neglecting the Blogging Chicks lately, but I'm getting back on the bandwagon. Here's this weeks Carnival, all about love in honor of Valentine's day.

I can't remember what movie or TV show that line was on, but it really struck me when I heard it.  It so exactly describes my relationship with my husband and his with me.  I've tried in my adult life to follow my intuition and the path laid out for me.  It's not easy when you're an obsessive over-thinker/worrier.  But sometimes things are so clear ( Read more... )

Coming from a Catholic background and having spent time in the convent, I am obviously familiar not only with ritual, but with creating ritual.  However, when you step outside of a familiar belief system to create what is meaningful to you, in essence creating your own religion/spiritual tradition, it's hard to visualize what you want to do ( Read more... )

My sister-in-law is just an amazing individual.  She's one of those people with so much energy, you get tired just being in the same room with her!  But she puts all of that fabulous energy to good use.  She does management consulting in the video games industry, which, as we all know, is not exactly the bastion of feminism.  She does a huge amount ( Read more... )

I know, I know, I'm writing a lot today. But for some reason I feel inspired. I don't want to do the same old things I do every weekend, so I'm stretching myself a bit, and that alone tends to inspire me.

The January card was King of Wands. I figure since January is mostly over, I'll go ahead and take a whack at this one. I've been reading various ( Read more... )

So, I finally got around to doing a tarot reading for the coming year. I pulled a card for each month and one for the year. I'm still working on the interpretations (I'm now and a bit slow), so I'll add those later. For now, here's the draw:

January - King of Wands

February - Princess of Hearts

March - Ten of Pentacles

April - Ten of Wands

May - ( Read more... )

I found this over at The Witch Within. It was too good to not share it with all my female friends here. I hope you post it on your sites. I have been unable to find an attribution, other than it is by an Australian girl. It's been around the net for a while, but it can't be repeated too much

See, nothing irritates me more than to have people trying to define what is and isn't pagan. Pagans have to be nature centered. Pagans of to be polytheists. Blah...blah...blah....

I feel the same way about Christians who try to define who is and isn't Christian. If I want to say I'm Christian, who gives a damn. If I want to say I'm Pagan, what the ( Read more... )

Now *that* is what the spirit of Christmas is all about!  No fan faire, she didn't seek publicity and hardly gave people a chance to even see who she was.  Talk about angels.

Sorry for not posting in so long.  A lot has been going on for me.  I've always tended to have periods of being non-communicative, usually when I'm depressed.  Well, for once it's not depression, but just being so darn busy!

Yes, I know the site disappeared for a couple of weeks.  I forgot to renew the domain, but it's renewed now and back up and ( Read more... )
