People often assume that I am a liberal Democrat. I am not. Nor am I a conservative Republican. What I am is a Constitutionalist. Whenever I say that I get a lot of responses of, “So am I.” I always ask, “Have you ever read the whole thing?” Most Americans have NOT. I have. I have read it, analyzed it, written papers about […]

There are currently SIX, yep six, planets retrograde and on Tuesday the 23rdthey will be joined by Neptune.

My childhood occurred before the Industrial Food Supply and Big Pharma took over the world, so the concept of eating Seasonally was not a completely new concept to me when Michael Pollan came out with the book The Omnivores Dilemmaand then a bit later the little handbook Food Rules.

You are approaching the Circle before it is cast, attending a Witch’s rites, maybe an Esbat, maybe a Sabbat, maybe some other formal working, but it is dark, and it is a little intimidating. There are robed figures standing around, stoking a fire, lighting incense, looking over notes, whatever needs to be done just before a
Wicca 101 – study the plants and their magick! It has been where the study of witchcraft starts for a very long time. No real surprise.
