Holy is the True Light, and passing wonderful,
lending radiance to them that endured in the heat of the conflict,
from Christ they inherit a home of unfading splendour,
wherein they rejoice with gladness evermore.
Alleluia!
from the Salisbury Diurnal by GH Palmer

A pause on the road

I may try to ignore it, but I feel the energies shifting around me. It hasn’t really been summer for weeks. We had three weeks of our worst heat and humidity at the beginning of August, after a comparatively mild summer; when it broke, driven away by tropical storms drifting up the Atlantic coast, I [...]

I was baptized Methodist and confirmed Episcopalian. I discovered paganism when The Spiral Dance was published and waffled back and forth between Christian and pagan for the better part of twenty years, until I began practicing a form of Hermetic magic that pointed me to Buddhism, and I took refuge.
I am an Anglican, a Druid, a witch, [...]
The view from the hermit shack

There is a large chessboard laid out on the floor in the central court of the library where I work. The chess pieces are three or four feet high. Two men are playing a game, while a couple of others stand watching. I think this is for National Library Week.
I keep reading on our local weather [...]

Seven books a month seems to be my average reading pace–not quite two books a week.
The UFO Phenomenon by John Michael Greer: I’m not sure what to say about this book. Greer is one of the best occult writers out there, a solid researcher who checks his facts as well as one of the [...]

Capricorn Horoscope for week of April 2, 2009
Your symbol for the week is the Mariana Trench, which is the lowest place on the earth’s surface. Located underwater in the Pacific Ocean, it’s almost seven miles down — further below sea level than Mt. Everest is above sea level. I chose this [...]

And another thing about RaceFail

Remember “The Trouble with Tribbles”? Sure you do–that Original Star Trek episode with the cute little furry pet-thingies that breed faster than rabbits. The author of that episode, David Gerrold, wrote a making-of book in the 1970s, full of personal reminiscences that I really should not have been reading at the age of [...]
The voice of the turtle
Posted in AODA, Druidry, Wheel of the Year, tagged AODA, Druidry, Nature Awareness on February 11, 2009 | 2 Comments »
I heard the cooing of a mourning dove while walking to work today, for the first time in months. It’s one of my favorite sounds, hollow yet intimate, distant even if it’s right outside your bedroom window. The voice of the turtle is heard in our land, as it says in the Song of [...]
