2011 Annual Brighid Poetry Festival: Prophecy
I wrote this last year, but it’s my only piece of devotional poetry for Brighid (so far). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Prophecy She spoke to me in a tongue of flame, light flickering […]
Cave of Wonders addition
My mom got me this necklace from her holiday trip to Nicaragua. I love it because it reminds me of both Brighid and a Native Medicine Wheel (and I’m getting […]
tonight my heart is cold
Sometimes I wish I was Catholic. Or, rather, I wish I had the same sort of vehicle for purging my negative emotions as confession. To be able to go to […]
Solstice Morning
I tried to do an all night vigil for the sun last night. This did not happen. I was already dangerously low on spoons from several nights of bad sleep, […]
The Detangling of Yarn
I just spent half an hour detangling some seriously knotted yarn. Yarn detangling isn’t boring; it’s just tedious. It’s interesting to note just how tangled your yarn is, and wonder […]
Ritual Debrief: November 20th-21st encounter with the Lady of the Stars (Long post, beware)
My last post talked about prep for my introductory ritual with the Lady of the Stars, or Brighid. I haven’t posted the debrief until now because I’m actually quite bad […]
Ritual prep
Best friend and I went and scouted out a place for me to do the ritual yesterday morning. She’ll be sitting in the car waiting for me to finish when […]
A bit of light-hearted fun: Conversations with iGod
Ali posted her conversation with iGod, an AI chat machine that thinks it’s God, and it was so funny I thought I’d do my own. Me: Sup dude. God: Not much is […]
By leaps and bounds
I got my ADF materials shortly before Samhain (which was not the best Samhain I’ve ever had, but I don’t want to get into that right now). I started doing […]
Well, I’ve done it.
I just sent in my membership form to ADF. In a few weeks I’ll have my membership packet of materials. I’m feeling pretty tingly and nervous. (Also, apologies for so […]
Ár nDraíocht Féin: A Druid Fellowship
I should be sleeping, but I wanted to blog about this briefly. Several friends of mine (online and off) are part of this organization, so I’ve known about it for […]
Lughnasadh
Lughnasadh has never before mattered to me as first a NeoWiccan, and later just a Celtic Witch. I’ve never felt the need to celebrate it — much like Imbolc, it […]
So Manannan’s a fun guy.
What I posted yesterday was not what I had set out to post. I’d set out to post about Manannan, originally, and I ended up talking about the BP oil […]
Mayday. M’aidez. HELP. Oil in the water. Oil in the marsh. SOS. EVERYTHING IS GOING TO DIE. (via The Ladies’ Guide to the Apocalypse)
I just got home from Point-Aux-Chenes again. I’ve been there four days now, tagging along for various things. This video below is one of them. Which is huge f-in news […]
Finding Answers (and coming away with more questions)
So in my last post I talked about going down to the beach to see if the God Who’d been nudging me really was Manannan Mac Lir. (I probably didn’t […]
Nudgenudgenudge
So I haven’t made it down to the beach yet…. It’s been raining for three days, and last night I dreamt of rain and mist. Today it’s decidedly foggy. Need […]
Manannan?
So up till now my NeoCeltic practice (er, what little I have of one) has revolved around Brighid and Morrigan. I’d thought about branching out to other gods in the […]
Kink and Spirituality (Post #1)
This is a rather big topic, so I’m going to be doing a series of posts on it, as I am able to speak about some of this stuff. Obviously […]
The Suddenness of Loss
This morning my dog, Major, died. He was 11. We’d had him for 4 years; an SPCA rescue. Some part of me knew that this was his last summer, but […]
Doing what’s necessary
In my post about activism and the path of the Warrior, I said that to be a Warrior means to realize that something needs to be done, and then going […]
Fires of Purification (retropost)
Note: I wrote this back in January, for the print and online magazine Immanence, which I helped birth in Powell River. I used to have a regular column called the […]
Recent Dreams
I’ve had three recent nightmares that are incredibly vivid. One I’m not going to go into detail on — all I’ll say is it involves Pennywise the clown. *shudder* The […]
Activism and the Path of the Warrior
i was just a girl in a room full of women licking stamps and laughing i remember the feeling of community brewing of democracy happening but i suppose like anybody […]
Spring Cleaning and Prosperity
I just spent the better part of two hours cleaning my room. I was supposed to do a spell to bring in money tonight, but decided my room had to […]
The Beginning
That’s a good place to start, right? I’m Morag. I’m a Pagan whose path has been ever-evolving for a while now. That’s why I’ve held off on having a “Pagan […]
