Thank You, Lady Ruby and Shay

Thank you, Shay and Lady Ruby, for your years of service to this democracy. I am so ashamed as an American that these horrible things were done to you. I hope you both can recover your sense of safety. Thank you for being a witness at the Jan 6th hearings. I'm sure that was difficult and frightening. May your lives be blessed from here on out #ShayFreemanMoss #LadyRuby #Jan6 #Trump #justice #racial #white #black #thankyou

Because I may not be able to drive much longer, due to my eyesight, but I still have places to go and things to do!  I am not alone.

Thoughts on becoming Pagan Clergy

The following is an excerpt from something I have been studying in preparation for the Correllian Ministry.  It was an address to the clergy of the Church of Gaia, back in the day. The essay is called "What Gaeists Believe" and it's published as part of

"Correllian Philosophy"

This really struck me, as I have been trying to pin down why I want to become a Correllian Minister, and what that will mean for my life and purpose. The 'energies' referred to are those of the changing age, and the power and destruction, and eventually rebirth, that will accompany them.

"...At this time we Priests and Priestesses have the special task of understanding and assisting these energies and those affected by them. In becoming a Priest or Priestess you commit to helping both the planet and society as well as individuals. There will be many problems and crises on both large and personal scales with which you may be called upon to help, as well as the High Magic of Priestcraft. You must be caring and compassionate to those who look to you for guidance, yet also be strong enough not to be misused. You must be teacher both of universal truth and correct action, and a facilitator of universal life –helping those who turn to you to overcome all blockages and hindrances to their own greatest potential. You are taking them and helping them to find their places in the universe, and to weather and even rejoice in the coming changes. You must be their advisor and friend, their leader when needed, and their defender and protector. To be a Priest/ Priestess is not an easy path. It is a vocation –a calling, not a job. It requires courage, persistence, and dedication, as well as psychic and magical training. It is a high calling, not accepted lightly. Yet the rewards are great. The world will change. The changes can be easy or hard, the results to our liking or not –it is to guide this that we are called. If we do not, the world will change without us. It is a window of great opportunity in which great things can be done, if we choose to do them. This is the choice put before you. Think on it well, for it is not a one-time choice, but a choice to be remade and more deeply made each day. A steep path leading to great heights and ancient magical things. Think on it well".

Solar energy that doesn’t block the view

A team of researchers at Michigan State University has developed a new type of solar concentrator that when placed over a window creates solar energy while allowing people to actually see through the window. It is called a transparent luminescent solar concentrator and can be used on buildings, cell phones and any other device that has a clear surface. And, according to Richard Lunt of MSU’s College of Engineering, the key word is “transparent.”

After The Rapture

[morgainebrigid]

I experimented with dying wool before spinning it, using Kool-Aid and a microwave. Decided that the best time to dye is before I card the wool, or after it's spun. Dying the carded rolags just messes  them up.

video games are not the reason people kill.

people kill because

they like to kill and have no remorse
