Note: My blog contains affiliate links/ads from advertisers from which I may earn advertising commissions. Not only is it Sunday, but it’s also the Full Wolf Moon tonight! I’ve prepared as much as I can for tonight’s ritual, and now it’s time to consult the Earth Magic Oracle cards for something to think…
Five Rune Cross Runecasting
Note: My blog contains affiliate links/ads from advertisers from which I may earn advertising commissions. The new year begins in a couple of days. I selected a five rune cross spread to look at influences going forward into the new year. As many are considering their own spirituality, I thought about how energy flows…
Where We Hold Others
Note: My blog contains affiliate links/ads from advertisers from which I may earn advertising commissions. A friend does something to upset you. You’re wounded and an apology, assuming the friend even knows what he or she did to begin with, doesn’t really satisfy you. You stay a little mad at that person, if only to…
Sunday Earth Magic casting
Note: My blog contains affiliate links/ads from advertisers from which I may earn advertising commissions. Rain, Forest and Clouds are the subject of today’s Earth Magic casting. One can almost feel the essence of each card – Purification, Breath and Shapeshifting, without reviewing the accompanying text. I really like three card landscape layouts as…
Protesting Funerals
Note: My blog contains affiliate links/ads from advertisers from which I may earn advertising commissions. A funeral was held for one of the two officers slain in their patrol car in New York City. This is an emotional situation for everyone concerned. I can’t even imagine what it must be like to be a police…
So You Want a Conversation?
Note: My blog contains affiliate links/ads from advertisers from which I may earn advertising commissions. We’ve all heard about the shootings of unarmed black men in this country. We’ve seen endless disrespect shown to protesters as they make their voices heard, and to media who cover these situations. The notion that a grand jury will…
Winter Solstice Reading
Note: My blog contains affiliate links/ads from advertisers from which I may earn advertising commissions. Winter Solstice is upon us. A New Moon brings us potential for the coming month. Both are a time for reflection and represent the Crone phase of life. We reflect on all that’s been learned, discerning what’s necessary and…
Derailment
Note: My blog contains affiliate links/ads from advertisers from which I may earn advertising commissions. I love that word, derailment. It’s descriptive and gets the point across. Typically we think of trains, but as individuals, we too can become derailed by all sorts of people or situations around us. If we can get past the…
Focus into Alignment
Note: My blog contains affiliate links/ads from advertisers from which I may earn advertising commissions. I wrote a piece a couple of weeks ago on point of origin, and I’ve been thinking more about that. Growing up, I always wanted to know how everything began. It was akin to the so-called chicken versus egg component…
Sunday Earth Magic: Alignment
Note: My blog contains affiliate links/ads from advertisers from which I may earn advertising commissions. I reserve Sundays for Earth Magic Oracle cards. I love them. Steven D. Farmer created them and the interpretations are amazingly prescient. In today’s reading, I drew Dragonfly, River and Wolf for a general landscape reading for the coming…
Some Bindrunes and Their Meanings
Note: My blog contains affiliate links/ads from advertisers from which I may earn advertising commissions. I dearly love Bindrunes. Each rune in the Futhark has vibrational resonance, and when combined together in a meaningful fashion, that resonance can be directed and increased. Protective power of some kind is a common theme, as is balance…
Choke Holds
Note: My blog contains affiliate links/ads from advertisers from which I may earn advertising commissions. So apparently one of the typical idiots on the one news outlet I refuse to watch claims that it wasn’t actually a choke hold that the cop put on Eric Garner. Well, as a Black Belt and former Kenpo Instructor,…
Daily Rune – Tiwaz
Note: My blog contains affiliate links/ads from advertisers from which I may earn advertising commissions. Tiwaz. Named for the God, Tyr, Tiwaz represents justice, honor and self-sacrifice. Represented by Elemental Air, Libra is its astrological correspondence. Magicks of increase are favored, focusing upon victory, right thinking, health and swift recuperation. A Masculine energy rune, we…
Point of Origin
Note: My blog contains affiliate links/ads from advertisers from which I may earn advertising commissions. Point of origin is a concept taught in Kenpo that essentially means the point at which your weapon moves into action. So, if your weapon is your fist, and it’s down by your side, it moves from that point into…
Love matters
Note: My blog contains affiliate links/ads from advertisers from which I may earn advertising commissions. Not only has racism not ended in this country, it seems like it’s open season on people of color. The vitriol alone expressed about our President is sickening to witness. It’s gotten to the point that I rarely watch the…
