Everything Under the Moon

I recently Altered my Altar.

My biggest reason for walking away from the faith I was raised in, practiced to the point of even becoming a Minister of said faith, and then questioning the faith after delving into research which took years to procure- is something very basic and simple.

She implements the Ras Shamra texts and their continued deciphering using the ancient Ugaritic(closer to Aramaic ...

I think My Little Pony is a nice touch. They come in so many colors :) and as nothing is true & everything is permitted secular Crafters might well heave a sigh of relief. What are the odds on having the chutzpah to know when to stop? Imagine a Middle Pillar Ritual focusing on the light of Prin...

If what you are seeking is to find a Shamanistic practice close to your Central American roots, much is adopted and similar to what was documented in Michael Harner's The Way of the Shaman as a universal approach uncovered by most Anthropologists to date.

To note- This is indeed a basic, simple, ignorant answer to some question I have received over the years to explain who, what & why about the Sepher Sephiroth and its magical application. I thought I would share it here. Has anyone ever wondered what certain phrases, words and circular layouts w...

Something I'm having trouble with is communing with the beings around me, most of the time what I think I'm hear if is my imagination trying to fill the silences between the scraps of words I do here to make a sentence or to entirely create one to what I want to hear. I need and want to be able to ...

I am surprised no one here mentioned finding a rock that has a natural hole in it to gaze through the moonlight to see the fae & spirits. This is classic, traditional faerie lore!

Does anyone understand astrology??! I'm looking for the "for Dummies" edition so maybe my eyes don't glaze over, y'know. And planets come and go these days. Who can keep up? Is Pluto in or out of the running? Is there, or isn't there, a tenth planet? No wait, that would be 9 without Pluto...
