I am still slowly recovering so the posts are what I can do before I need a nap.
May you and yours be blessed with good health, love, and happiness with a lot of postive energy!

I am doing better but still nowhere near 100%. All the birthday horoscopes are caught up and posted on their respective dates. I got most of today’s regular posts done now I am going to lay back down. Turns out I had a really bad cold that weakened my already weak immune system which led to me getting COVID easier and making it worse. Thank you for your get well wishes, support, and understanding of my no posting until today this week.
Blessings of good health for you and yours!

A Thought for Today

Finally, I had time to do tomorrow posts for the northern hemisphere. I will try my best to keep them up.
A Thought for Today

I know I have been gone for the last few days and I apologize if it has inconvenienced anyone. Life has been in the express lane with trying to help Big Dawg get his job done, which entailed around 1,000 miles from Thursday to Saturday, so we have the money we need to catch up on bills and stay current with them. Yesterday, Sunday, was Big Dawgs birthday and we hosted a birthday luncheon for family and friends. I also have not been feeling well with low energy levels in every aspect of my physical and spiritual life. I finally got a full night of decent sleep last night after a week of yucky, broken sleep every night. But I’m feeling better more grounded and centered so I will do my best each day to being you the regular daily posts. I hope to go back to doing the northern hemisphere’s tomorrows posts too. Thank you for your support and patience during my absence!
May you and yours be blessed with a lot of positive energy dear Sisters, Brothers, and friends.

I hope this fines everyone in good health, happy, and relaxed. As for me I am doing ok just been a very long, rough week with being in the car approximately 4 to 5 hours every day for Big Dawg to serve paperwork. Today isn’t much different for being in the car plus my monthly meeting with my apprentices along with our Samhain celebration and a wiccaning for a beautiful baby boy.
Enjoy the day no matter what you will be doing!

A Thought for Today

Feeling a lot less pain and stiffness this morning. Now if the fibromyalgia flare would calm down I would be in really good shape again. But life goes on no matter how we are feeling physically, mentally, spiritually, or any combination of these. So, on to doing today’s regular posts and hopefully a few of tomorrows as well. My brain fog is so bad right now I am forgetting what I am doing as I do sometimes.
May your week kick off with a big positive bang!

Giant Burr Acorn

Giant Burr Oak Tree (not the one in my yard).
This is a Giant Burr Acorn of which I have literally hundreds of in out front and part of our side yard from the beautiful, majestic Giant Burr Oak Tree in our front yard. So, the acorns were hurting Merlin feet, Star refused to walk anywhere they had fallen, and Cleo could have cared less and walked around or on them. Since two of our companions were having a problem with the acorns, I took it upon myself to first rake them into piles, then load them into my wheelbarrow and take them to different areas for the Squirrels and Deer would have access to them now and in the winter. A very silly move on my part with a raging fibromyalgia flare! I wound up straining muscles in my back, shoulders, hip, and knees. Friday I could barely move, but it is getting better daily using a topical muscle relaxer, my heating pad and I have become best friends…lol. Hopefully I can finally soak in an Epsom bath with essential oils and herbs to help the muscle soreness to disappear pretty much completely. This is why I have been only doing the regular posts on the date they fall on instead of doing tomorrow posts also.
The ones that have fallen in our back yard from the Giant Burr Oak Tree are staying wherever they fell. I won’t do a final mowing within about 10 feet of the the tree so the deer can forge for them in the cold weather with the added bonus of some of the ones front the yard being spread out in that area also.

Druid Quote Source: azquotes.com
This is the forest primeval. The murmuring pines and the hemlocks, Bearded with moss, and in garments green, indistinct in the twilight, Stand like Druids of eld, with voices sad and prophetic, Stand like harpers hoar, with beards that rest on their bosoms. Loud from its rocky caverns, the deep-voiced neighboring ocean Speaks, and in accents disconsolate answers the wail of the forest.
A Thought for Today

I took a few longish walks this week to find my path again and to release all the negative everything that was inside of me to refill it with all positive things. So this poem really spoke to me as I was looking for a thought to put up. It also helped me to feel better physically which in turn let me get the posts for today up yesterday like I had been doing but was unable to for a while.
There is a lot to be said for walking in the grass among trees and other things pleasing to the eye that Mother Nature and Gaia gives us to look at. They also provide us lovely things to smell like flowers and fresh cut grass just to name a couple. They give us things to feel the different textures that the world around us offers. They help to ease our troubles and worries to hopefully all us to gain a better state of mind. If you do not live in a home where these things are not just outside your front door trying going to a park or forest preserve and walk there. It doesn’t need to be a long walk as you can still experince the afore mentioned things by sitting on a bench or lawn chair or the grass to take in what beauty is around you.
I also encourage you to take some type of trash bag with you and clean up what others have just left on the ground that interrupts the energy we can feel when surrounded or in nature.
Blessed be dear Sisters, Brothers, and Friends!
A Thought for Today

Depending when we get Big Dwag’s Jeep back that is in for repairs to the power steering stuff whether or not I come back on a little later to do the northern hemisphere’s tomorrow posts or not. It is still rainy and cold here so no relief from the fibromyalgia flare I’m in, in the near future. But I felt I needed to go back to doing all the regular daily posts as it is not fair to you for me to give up doing all the posts that you are used to seeing on WOTC just because it hurts me to type.
A Thought for Today
Welcome to a new and wonderful week dear Sisters, Brothers, and Friends! May positive blessing come to you and yours today and every day.
OK, so, here’s what’s going on with me and posting… We are in the misted of changing from summer to fall which means a painful time for people with chronic pain, fibromyalgia, arthritis, etc. This along with long days with Big Dawg serving paperwork and than not sleeping enough because of the pain has my body in revolt. It is all I can do to get out of bed or off our couch to do anything. Typing or using the mouse is pure agony because of the nerves in my fingertips being super sensitive to touching anything and everything, including giving pets and scratches to our fur kids 😥
So, I will be only doing horoscopes, moon phase, northern hemisphere planetary positions, daily correspondences, and a spell until this recent acute fibromyalgia flare decides to calm down. The posts I am doing will go up probably on the day of and whatever time of day I can handle sitting at either my desktop or using my laptop to do them.
During a Skype chat with my coven yesterday I found out about some herbs that may help to keep my nervous system better under my control instead of it controlling many of my regular daily activities which includes all WOTC things. Now I have to find out where to either order them online or a store that carries them.
So please bear with me I will get back to full regular daily postings as soon as I can. Thank you once again for your support, caring, and comfort while my body and I aren’t on good speaking terms.
A Thought for Today
BUILDING A MYSTERY by thegypsy
It begins with the little things
Shadows in the corner
A quick glimpse and then nothing
Observed, perhaps
Too much uncertainty
And certainly not put to memory
Like a whisper in a crowd
There and then quickly dissipates
Maybe you question for a moment
Then rationalize and continue
And it continues
With objects slightly out of place
A crooked painting
Chairs that seem abandoned
Lights flash in a darkened room
Or a sudden chill in the air
Intuition is speaking
A feeling that keeps coming
Something is stirring
Something that isn’t right
Triggering defenses
Your mind now constantly moving
That newfound feeling
Gnawing ravenously
Building a mystery
No longer just on the inside
Visible now, like an open wound
Irritating confusion
The need is growing
And you begin to question
Your senses first, your sanity second
Tiny lapses in the time stream
What should have been,
Replicated with another version
Short on the how and why
But again, it’s been rationalized
Different thoughts for now
New explanations
But then you begin to realize
The other thoughts remain
One’s onerous and dark
It’s you they are coming for
Edges starting to fray
Pulling away
The hunger growing
Paranoia and accusatory
But of what accord is the wonder
Suspects in every direction
But no case in point to reference
Careful questioning
As the days continue
Evenings fading into night
More oddities in the shadows
Growth of unclaimed activities
Actionable encounters
Footfalls deep into the darkness
Too loud to pin to a dream
Scratching window on a cloudless day
The feeling of something stirring
But when and where and why
There’s a thinning happening
Blurring the distant vision
Double takes and reexamination
And the missing things
Now more important things
Searching becomes maddening
Suspicions manifesting
Eyes shifting and observing
Borderline panicking
Brow sweating, heart pounding
Vision darting, silence deafening
Madness overtaking
Ears ringing, haunted singing
Laughing becomes screaming
Fitful dreaming, broken thinking
Tearing, swearing, earth shearing
Ground shaking, everything breaking
Things corrupting, flames erupting
Evil rising, synchronizing
Head pounding, body shaking
Smoke coiling, blood boiling
Sharp stinging, barely clinging
Alarm clock ringing…

We all grow a little each day. In which way will you be growing today…towards a positive or negative thing?

A Laugh for Today

The last two days in our home have been way of normal. Sunday, I didn’t get the Monday posts up because I was in too much pain after we drove 220 miles to serve paperwork. Yesterday we had to go bring a new battery to my youngest son, so he was able to start his car again to go to work. As we left to come home a major belt on the Jeep broke 4 blocks from my son’s home. We were able to get it to a great auto repair shop but that’s where the real fun came in. We were there 5 hours waiting for the part to come, the auto parts store lost power we had to wait for the part until power was restored and be put on. Oh, I forgot to mention it rained everywhere we were all day yesterday which isn’t fun with artists and a bad fibromyalgia flare. We left home about 10:00 AM and didn’t get back until around 8:00 PM instead of about 2 PM. Needless to say, our fur children were not happy with us and had very empty tummies their normal dinner time is between 1 and 2 PM. So, I had plan to do today’s posts when we got home but both of us could barely move due to sitting in chairs that were uncomfortable for hours and just being in the Jeep for so long. Anywho onto tomorrow posts that go live today.
