The Wicca Book of A ceremony called the Burning of the Lamps was held on June 24 in ancient Egypt. Dedicated to the Goddess Neith, it took place in a crypt beneath the temple of the great Goddess Isis in the city of Sais, and involved the circling of a coffin (representing the corpse of Osiris) by devotees bearing burning lamps (symbolizing lunar light and the moon’s powers of healing and resurrection ). This festival emphasized the roles that both Neith and Isis played in their aspect as moon and underworld deities, Neith was also regarded as the creator of Sais and the inventor of weaving.
To make an outdoor lantern, first clean a tin can, then, using it nail and hammer, punch a decorative pattern into it, plus two holes at the top for the handle (hook each end of a length of wire into these). Now drop in a burning tea light and hang your lantern from a sturdy branchDays for June 24

A sacred day of the goddess Fortuna, Lady Luck. As St. John the Baptist’s Day, it is also the official Midsummer’s Day. It is customary to light midsummer bonfires on high points to celebrate the high point of the year and of solar light. Traditional locations for St. John’s Day fires are often places where the sun was observed in former times.

Traditionally, Sunday is the first day of the week. It is also known as the Lord’s Day from it original association with the Lord, that is, the Sun God, personified as Helios, Apollo, Ogmios, Mithras, and St. Elia. But in the Northern Tradition, the sun is seen as feminine, personified as the goddess known as Phoebe in East Anglia and Saule in eastern Europe. The sun rules the conscious element of the human being, the ego, the real self, and Sunday is the day on which this conscious power is at its most effective.

Lady A had to take the day off. She needed to take a break and rest for a bit. She isn’t suppose to be doing anything but she doesn’t know how to do that. In fact, resting isn’t even in her vocabulary. When she was released from the hospital, she was instructed to come home and rest. Did we do that, no. Instead we took a trip to Eastern Kentucky to see her family and friends up there. She figured that would probably be the last time she got to see them.
You haven’t heard her mention her health but I will. The doctors highly recommended removing her spleen. Then the procedure they would have to do so she could live without it. She told them no. Next they wanted to put her on this trial medication for people with her condition. As you know it is expensive and she turned them down. She told them there was no way she could afford that and she would just go home to die. The doctors told her if she changed her mind they would fax the prescription to the local pharmacy. Without it, they told her, she probably wouldn’t make it. The people who own and operate these drug companies need to come to the real world. They need to offer the prescriptions at an affordable rate for those whose life depends on them. But they don’t. Even though we tried in vain to raise the money for her first round of the drug, we couldn’t do it. We had several generous donations but we still fell $315 short on meeting the first payment. That was why Joseph worked so hard to get the store built. He had days he worked 24 hours a day just to try to raise the rest of the money needed for his mother’s medicine. It didn’t happen.
I know some of you have been wondering why Lady A hasn’t talked about her health, now you know. Basically she came home to die. It seems she knew what would happen because she told me, ‘she would die because of the lack of a dollar.” I am not telling you this in order to plea with you for money. I am telling you this so you can enjoy the time Lady A spends on this site. She will have days when she get so tired and sick she can’t even raise her head up. Today happens to be one of those days. She will rest up and be able to go for another two or three days, then the same thing will happen again. Her health is horrible. She told me, “she had accepted her fate and so be it.” The rest of us have not accepted her fate and we won’t until she draws her last breath. Until that time we will keep on fighting for her and trying to get the medicine she needs. She is determined to carry on as usual as long as it is possible. How long that is, we don’t know.
I went against her wishes. She did not want you to know what the doctors had said, she didn’t want anyone to know, especially the boys. Now that you know, I would appreciate it if you did not mention her health or any of this to her. She wants to continue as normal and as long as she can and we are going to let her.
I must now get ready to do today’s postings. I hope you have a very blessed day,
Lynette
For my father, my friend,
This to me you have always been.
Through the good times and the bad,
Your understanding I have had.
A gentle man at heart,
This sets you apart,
From the others I’ve seen,
You mean so much to me.
The laughter we have shared,
Cannot be compared.
The tears I have shed,
As you lovingly nodded your head.
You have always been there,
With a smile and a hug,
A precious gift from our Goddess up above.
The times that I have been down and sad,
Your silly ways could always make me glad.
You gave me strength to carry on,
Even when all hope seemed to be gone.
The lessons in life that I have learned,
Are from your genuine love and concern.
With deep appreciation for all you have done.
You, Dad,
Are our number one.
With all our love,

I grabbed the first account I founded opened and it happened to be Lynette’s. Let me introduce myself, I am Joseph. I am Lady A’s older adopted son and Jacob’s older brother. I am not a witch but I do know the Craft enough to know that if Lady A ever recovers I want to learn more about it. Maybe one day, I can say I am a witch. Till then, I am the one working on the WOTC’s store, Magickal Necessities. I have spent numerous hours on the store and we have some items on there. Right now, we are putting on herbs and half priced herbs. Tonight, I hope to get some oils on there for you. We are counting on the fact that perhaps you might be out of herbs and in the need of some. The same goes for the essential oils. We have several pages bare put the pages I mentioned are full of herbs. Give the essential oils time and it will be also. We are still under the construction phase of the store but we are more than willing to take orders for any amount of oils, herbs or anything else you might need. I have a brother about 500 miles away from home and a mother who is rapidly going down hill. To say we need the sales is an understatement.
If you have not check out the new Magickal Necessities, please do so. It is nice meeting you and you will be hearing from me off and on.
Sincerely,
Joseph
Happy Flag Day! I was allowed in to make this post then the men are throwing me out. They ran into a few glitches on the store but are now moving right along. We have been told we won’t be allowed back on the computers till they are through. They are in a rush now because Lady A has been transferred from the local hospital to one out of state. Jacob, Lord M and Eleanor went with her. Her condition is not getting any better and the doctors here have done all they can. Joseph (Lady A’s other son) has stepped up and started finishing the store. We are very thankful he is computer literate.
You can check out the progress of the store at the link below. We hope you understand why it is now of the utmost importance to get the store running and selling. With everybody out of state they will need funds to meet their expenses as well as Lady A’s. We don’t won’t them to be sleeping on the street while they are with her. We are hoping and praying Lady A will be back with us soon. I am sorry if I am all over the place this morning but I am worried sick.
Here is the link to the store. It will be open within the next few days. We have already had people join the site in anticipation of it opening. We are hopeful that we will have a huge grand opening.
Have a blessed day,
Lynette
Wishing everyone a blessed Monday morning. We have to be off the internet for the next few days but it is for a good reason. We are turning the office over to the men. The men will be working feverishly to get our store back up and running. It is important that the store comes back up as quickly as possible. I don’t know if I said it or Jacob said it but one of us mis-spoke and I apologize for that. Maybe we didn’t, maybe that is what the doctors originally told us about the medicine Lady A is going to need once she is out of the hospital. I know we originally said that we had to make an attempt to pay the $738 for the medicine. That was incorrect. We have to pay that amount for the first bottle of medicine because it takes at least 30 days to get on the pharmaceutical’s list and get approved for the drug to be provided for free. We have had several generous donations and we do appreciate those but we are still a long way off. We had thought by doing the fund raiser that might produce more income but it didn’t. We are a very long way off from meeting the amount needed to purchase the first bottle.
Therefore, we are turning the office over to the men so they can get the shop built and get some income coming in for us. I know Lady A would throw a hissy fit if she knew that we were not going to be on the internet for the next few days. She will not be finding out till she is out of the hospital. We were first informed that if her progress stayed good she would be out sometime this week. She has suffered some complications and we honestly do not know now when she will be out of the hospital. When they repaired the hernia, her liver was accidentally scraped and this was not discovered for about two days after the surgery. Lord M and Jacob went to visit her in the hospital. They walked in, found her white as a ghost, sweating and shaking. Jacob immediately when to find a doctor to look at his mom. He grabbed the first one he saw and brought them into the room. The doctor told the nurses to call Lady A’s doctors immediately. Jacob said after that everything happened so fast neither Lord M or himself knew what was happening. The nursing staff brought up several pieces of equipment and took them into the room while Jacob and Lord M stood out in the hall. The doctor finally told them they had to take Lady A back to surgery because she was internally bleeding. It looked like her liver had been scraped and it was the cause of the bleeding. She was in surgery for two hours. She has also been given a blood transfusion or two, I am not sure. One of us have been at the hospital around the clock since that happened. We are all baffled and cannot understand how this went undetected for so long. Now we don’t know when she will be out of the hospital. Needless to say, we are all upset by this turn of events.
The ladies, Lord M and Jacob will be at the hospital. Jacob has been staying the nights at the hospital along with one of the ladies. They have brought in bed for him to sleep on. We also have a fold out chair that makes a bed. I know it scared Jacob to death to come in and find his mom like that. He was crying and upset. He said the night before she seemed out of it and didn’t eat much. He thought it was because of the medicine she was on. Truth be told, she was bleeding out then and the poor kid didn’t know it.
That is our current situation. The men will have control off the office for the next few days to rebuild the store. It is our hope that once it is rebuilt that we can get some income coming in. If we don’t, I don’t know what we will do to pay for the medicine Lady A is going to need when she is out of the hospital.
If we have any further up-dates, we will let you know. We will see you Thursday.
Have a blessed week,
Lynette

The Judgment card represents a sexual awakening, and now that you aren’t afraid to move in a new direction, a whole new world awaits you. What sex positions do you want to try, and which fantasies have you been dying to act out? Being honest with yourself and potential partner(s) about the details of what you desire will help you get what you want faster, and the end result will be much more satisfying. And above all, enjoy your sexual liberation!

The Sun is an invitation to a supportive relationship in which you can be yourself around your significant other. You feel relaxed and loved, with a sense of peace of heart. You’ve struck gold and entered into a new realm. Keep looking if this is not how you feel because it is how things should be. You can’t expect improvement in a long-term union if you do not take effective steps to create it.
The Seven of this suit is typically a paean to the humble laborer who is willing to show up every day and sweat in the sun for next season’s bounty. The traditional concept is cultivation, with an attitude that slow and steady wins the race, with faith in nature’s assistance. The protagonist of this card doesn’t make excuses, isn’t whimsical or moody, but is dedicated and sees the job through. Of course, it’s no good to count your chickens before they hatch, but there’s no question that the person who is vigilant over a project is more likely to get the desired result.
Someone who works with nature, cooperating with her ways, will waste less energy and time than the person who works against her. As a side meaning, we sometimes see this normally humble farmer in a moment of frenzy, betting the crop on a roll of the dice. This represents a moment of dementia, addiction or desperation which hopefully will not last long enough for the farmer to lose everything!
You are a true networker, possessing an insatiable curiosity and readily reaching out to people, but you have a distinctly private side as well. You have a real flair for the dramatic, and you can be a great storyteller. Your drive is powerful and you thrive on challenges. You are pleasant and agreeable, but you won’t compromise your principles to be these things. You are witty and always have something interesting to contribute to any conversation. Famous people born today: Robert Schumann, Barbara Bush, Joan Rivers, Frank Lloyd Wright, Kanye West.
Your Birthday Year Forecast
With the Sun and Moon in harmony in your Solar Return chart, the year ahead should be satisfying and balanced overall. You are in comfortable demand and personally popular, and you are able to achieve a decent balance between work and play; personal and professional life. For the most part, you are on top of your game this year, and positive connections with others can be made fairly easily. With the ability to handle your emotions successfully, there is less stress on both your mind and body. Your self-confidence and positive attitude will reward you!
This can be an exceptionally busy year on a mental level. At times, you may feel like the pace of your life is running ahead of you. You can be especially productive, however, in all types of communications–writing, speaking, learning, teaching, and so forth. Your reputation may be enhanced through word of mouth. Making new contacts through learning and mental pursuits figures strongly as well.
You are taking pride in your relationships. It’s a good time to strengthen and support others and to build trust. You tend to instinctively know how to behave in ways that boost others’ confidence. This can be a pleasantly ambitious period.
Certain relationships grow and expand this year or there can be the growth of a money-making pursuit or a satisfying hobby. Pleasing circumstances surrounding your love life, finances, and creative pursuits are in store this year. You are more generous, and others return the favor.
However, intensity characterizes your personal relationships and romantic attachments at times. Passions, feelings of jealousy, and possessiveness can run high, and these emotions are in direct proportion to fear of losing someone. You are likely to have to deal with these emotions in yourself, but you may also need to handle the jealousies and possessiveness of a partner. Relationships may be complicated or you seem drawn to complicated relationships. The need for deeper intimacy is present, but fear of this closeness may be just as strong. Something tiny can trigger all sorts of buried emotions, and this can be very revealing! Instead, there may be some tension over your personal finances, and/or need to make a large payment that necessitates changes in your spending habits. Finances may be complicated or there are power struggles with money this year.
Idealistic and humanitarian goals or impulses surface this year. Making connections with others from different backgrounds may figure strongly. Widening your mind through unusual or different experiences can be part of the picture. You more easily make personal sacrifices for what you believe to be the better good this year.
You’re in an excellent position for personal interests, education, and projects, as you are more committed to these things than usual. Your social life can transform in wonderful and perhaps magical ways, although some relationships can be complicated. You’re motivated regarding your personal interests and projects, and life can be very busy this year. Even so, until February, energy levels are up and down until you get in touch with what inspires you.
2018 is a Number Seven year for you. Ruled by Neptune. This is a year of preparation, chance, and refinement. It is not a time of dramatic changes. Instead, it’s a year when reflection on the past is helpful, and when refinements to your life path should be made. It’s a good year to study and analyze. Unexpected twists to your life story and “chance” meetings are probable. Advice – take stock of your life in order to prepare for more exciting years to come, examine the past and plan for the future, get in touch with your deepest needs and uncover your personal power, don’t strain yourself or actively try to expand.
2019 will be a Number Eight year for you. Ruled by Saturn. This is a year of power and accomplishment. Actively seeking to expand, taking educated risks, and moving forward are highlighted. This is a year of opportunity, particularly in the material and business world, and opportunities need to be seized. It’s generally not a year to find a new love partner, simply because the focus is on the material world and your place in the world. This is a problem-solving year in which you can expect real, tangible results. Advice – take action, plan ahead, seize opportunities.
