My very first LOLCat

I saw this pic and just had to create my very own lolcat. It's not as cute as some I've seen, but I think it still rocks.

Summer Solstice

Happy Summer Solstice! Merry Litha!
It's Midsummer already. The Wheel of the Year keeps turning. Now, we find ourselves at the midpoint. The Sun high upon the throne of the sky raining upon the earth with warmth and fire. The Earth sown with the seeds of promise that will bring forth the bounty of the autumn harvest. The Waters and Winds bringing both cool relief and more than a little trepidation as hurricane season gets underway.

It's a time to reflect on what this year has brought us, the bounty and abundance of spirit and hearth, as the waning season begins. The slow crush into Winter's bosom once again begins as the wheel continues to turn.

So, build a bonfire - dance and sing - and celebrate all the wonder that the summer holds.
Blessed Be!

Deity Affinity

Recently, I have felt an awakening inside. Something tugging on my spirit. And it almost feels right.

I say that I am a spiritualist - yet, I don't relate to religion at all. I don't like the pomp, the circumstance, the show of organized religion. I am beginning to believe that maybe just finding a personal relationship with the divine universe would suit me fine. The Mother Earth. The Goddess inside. I can truly see a personal alter stashed in my corner, casting my circle, calling the elements, feeling a rise in energy from the very air that surrounds me. I'm sure my husband would look at me funny if I told him any of this.

I'm considering following a nature-based pagan dogma.

I'm feeling stirrings from Brigid - the Celtic Goddess of Fire, Blacksmiths, Wells, Springs and Poets.

I'm an Aries - pure fire sign if there ever was. Blacksmiths work with iron and steel - hardened metal and strength - forged in fire, tempered by water. Wells and springs nourish our bodies and quench our thrists. They also wash away the ills and negativity of the everyday fuck-yous that accumulate. Is there anything more cleansing than a nice long hot shower?

And of poets....that I am, that I always have been.
