MAGICKAL 🍂SAMHAIN

By: Forest🐾Devi✨ (Novice in the Heart’s Spirit Coven)


Voices from the spirit world whisper in the wind.

Tonight two worlds come ever closer the curtain waivers thin.

Hear the crackle of the flames burning in the hearth, while loved ones in the Summerlands 

Return to walk the earth.

We welcome in the new year, a time to shed our skin.

With gratitude for lessons learned the future ushers in.

As entities from other worlds come feast with us again.

All commenced in celebration of MAGICKAL Samhain

Sweet Beltane

Swirling around the maypole
Dancing to the drums
Celebrating sweet Beltane
Summer has begun
Mother earth breathes New life
Under the sun aglow
The marriage of the earth and sky
Fertility bestowed
Swirling around the maypole
Flowers in our hair
It’s the Goddess and the green man
& they’re blessed love affair

The fascinating history of cemeteries – Keith Eggener

This is an interesting take on regular burials and cemeteries. The History of Cemeteries

The Witch Says….What?

I call to the Witches,

Both near and far.

No need to name you,

You know who you are.

Come Dane with me,

By the firelight,

and give praise to the Goddess,

this full moon night.

It doesn’t matter where you are.

Send your soul,

it travels far.

I’ll wait for you,

as the sun goes to rest,

tonight will be truly blessed.

Brothers, Sisters, dance with me.

As I will it,

So more it be.

Today, dear Sisters, Brothers and Guest, I leave you with this video…

14. Witchcraft and Magic

Some may find this video does not explain the history in witchcraft in England. I present it to you to decide if you learn anything new about witchcraft or if you feel it is all lies.

Description of video: Early Modern England: Politics, Religion, and Society under the Tudors and Stuarts (HIST 251) In this lecture, Professor Wrightson discusses witchcraft and magic. He begins with the context of magic beliefs in this period, introducing the ‘cunning folk’ who had reputations as healers and were often consulted. He then considers the specific problem of witchcraft, the use of magic to do harm, and its identification by the late medieval church as a form of anti-Christian cult. He examines the distinctive nature of both witchcraft beliefs and the history of witchcraft prosecution in England (as compared with both Scotland and continental Europe), outlining the typical circumstances of a witchcraft accusation and what these might suggest about the rise and fall of concern with witchcraft. Finally he considers a number of unresolved problems in the history of witchcraft in England: the nature of the links between gender and witchcraft; the reasons behind the passage of the statutes defining witchcraft as a crime; and the exceptionally large number of trials conducted in the county of Essex. 00:00 – Chapter 1. Magic 08:56 – Chapter 2. Differences between Witchcraft in England and in Europe 19:26 – Chapter 3. Trials in England 35:05 – Chapter 4. Witchraft Statutes in Essex Complete course materials are available at the Open Yale Courses website: http://open.yale.edu/courses This course was recorded in Fall 2009.

This is an interesting and informative video on Native Americans who have freely given us words of wisdom to take into ourselves to help us live in harmony with other people and most importantly Mother Earth. The music that accompanies the beautiful pictures is soothing and great for mediation. The video is well worth watching from beginning to end. I have seen it a few times and always take something new from it to tuck into my spirit.

Today it is in the single digits where I live in Chicagoland, Illinois, USA but I will still be walking to the post office to get the request for the death certificate and to have the paper with my person information, etc notarized. Why am I walking? Because I no longer drive due to medication for my back. But it’s only about 1 to 1 1/2 miles round trip from my door doing all the errands and getting home again.

I will try to keep you updated as information about WOTC website changes, Than it is definitely nap time with getting very little actual sleep.

I am still not fit to be seen but at least I had the energy thanks to Sirona and Kwan Yin to catch up on birthday horoscope posts.

I apologize to my Southern Hemisphere brothers, sisters, and guests for not getting a current Moon phase and planetary positions up for you the last few days.

To my Northern Hemisphere brothers, sisters and guests  I apologize for you missing a couple of days for the current Moon phase and planetary positions.

My goddess

Hekate

Hekate

Hekate is a goddess

from long long ago

way back in Greece

long before I began to grow

Hekate helped me to understand her ways

and there are times for levity

and that there is times for seriousness

that’s something I will have to remedy

I had made an error

I knew I had messed up

I had upset my guide

Causing me to tear up

She took me to a dark and misty place

A trip that went on through the night

I felt no fear along the way

I knew that I would be alright

I walked a long path

with many many turns

I felt my guides

Who voiced their concerns

The message was felt

I was not spoken

Your guides are here

Unless they are forsaken

I was on the right path

The evidence was clear

There were things to do

But i was to have no fear

I was to go back

I was to return

To the true ones

That had showed concern

I was to end

The long negativity

I was to smile

And always to be positive

I was to apologize

To those I had hurt

To light the incense

And repair the cuts

I was to be patient

In my greatest desires

To end the anxiety

But to find my power

If I maintained

And if I prayed

I would return

And find my way

If I continued on my current path

If I did not slow  down

Things would go badly

And I would slowly drown

You know who loves you

I was told

Follow your heart

but don’t be bold

Be patient and kind

and let them lead

They know much more

Of what you need

You will get there

But not today

You need to learn

Along the way

There are good and bad spirits

along this long path

Some are there to help

Some will cause a wrath

You know the difference

You can read the signs

Now follow your heart

and not your mind
