Cool Website of the Day

The New York Friars Club
Subscribers periodically request sites that feature humor and the most potent medicine of all – laughter. This is a tall order with Internet content not always edited as one would like. However, the Friars Club is such a site that fits the bill. The introduction says it all! "The Friars Club has a unique gift to share: laughter! The premiere entertainment organization is throwing open the doors to its infamous Monastery. People have often mused, "If only these walls could talk!" Well, you are about to step into history and hear what they have to say. Take a seat at the Friars legendary roundtable and experience for yourself the jokes, the music, the songs, the Friars-past and present. It is all in here, the Roasts, the Toasts, the legends, the traditions of almost a century - all preserved and packaged for those who are seduced by the charm of entertainment." Be sure to accept this invitation and pay special attention because, 'you just never know who may stop in along your tour of the Friars Club!'
Love Each Day,

Elder's Meditation of the Day

Elder's Meditation of the Day - October 5
"The dances are prayers."
--Pop Chalee, TAOS PUEBLO
When we dance to the drum we pray to the Creator and attract the heartbeat of the earth. We never dance without reason; every dance has a purpose. We dance for rain; we dance for healing; we dance for seasons; we dance for joy; we dance for our children; we dance for the people; we dance for courage. The drum plays to the beat of the heart, to the beat of the Earth. The drum connects us to the Earth while we dance our prayers.
Oh, Great One, let my dance and prayer be heard by You.

Bless This Deck
Posted by: "Lady Nightshayde" LadyNightshayde9@aol.com nightshayde99
Tue Oct 5, 2010 3:31 pm (PDT)
Bless This Deck
Whether you are new to the Tarot or have been using this ancient tool for years, it is wise to define exactly what you hope to accomplish in your relationship with the Tarot. You can do this by composing a mission statement. Writing a mission statement is way of "working backward" with your Tarot deck--beginning with the end result (what you hope to accomplish with your deck and your readings) and building your skills and activities toward that end. Once you have a clear understanding of your "destination," you can better assess where you are now, what steps are suitable for the end result, and whether your current efforts are moving you in the direction you desire.
Developing a Tarot Mission Statement
One way to begin defining your Tarot mission statement is to pose these questions to yourself: What is my intent for the use of this deck? How can I best serve others with my Tarot deck? These are not simple questions, so one way to begin the process of answering them may be to do some thoughtful journaling about your relationship with the Tarot. You can also pull cards from the deck, asking specifically for help with this question. The questions you could ask your Tarot deck might be, "What is the wisdom of the Tarot with regard to my mission with this tool?" or "What is the Tarot's guidance about my purpose with itself?"
Mission statements are as different as the people who craft them. Often they include the desire to develop or enhance intuition, self-understanding, the ability to "think outside the box," change one's self-image, or the ability to speak and write creatively. They may also include a reference to one's spiritual ideal and one's desire to communicate with spiritual forces. Your mission statement needs to be only one thing: an honest assessment of the relationship you aspire to create and maintain with your Tarot deck. Once you have clearly formulated your mission, I urge you to honor your accomplishment by blessing or "consecrating" the deck of your choice--your favorite Tarot deck, your new Tarot deck, or even your I-can't-seem-to-get-it Tarot deck.
There are many ways to bless a deck. Perhaps the simplest way is to lay the deck in the palm of your hand and place your other hand on top of, or slightly above, the deck. Then say a prayer or benediction, blessing the cards and asking that the highest and best wisdom be revealed to you and to all those who touch and use the deck. You may wish to ask Spirit to assist those who use your deck in choosing the cards that are right for them. You may wish to add a short blessing, prayer, or mantra that focuses on your spiritual ideal, such as love, peace, God/dess--whatever captures the higher spiritual presence for you. You may ask this spiritual ideal to come forth and envelop the deck.
Clearing Your Deck
Before you bless your deck, however, it is a good idea to "clear" it first. There are many ways to do this, the most common method being simply to shuffle the deck. This is also the best way to impregnate the cards with your personal energy/magnetism. Other methods of "clearing" a deck:
Reorder the cards in chronological order (both Major and Minor) and keep them in order for a day or two. Swirl a stick of incense around your deck, allowing the smoke to both purify the deck and call upon Spirit to infuse the deck with its power. Dab some oil of lavender around your deck or sprinkle it with water. Place a clear crystal on top of the deck for a day or so. Sprinkle your deck with salt. Rap the deck against a table or other hard surface or fling it across the floor (to shake off any negative energies). Place your deck under your pillow at night to clear its energy.
In an extreme case--that is, when you feel your deck has been psychically damaged in some way--you can wrap it, put it in a leak-proof container and bury it in the earth for a few days, thereby allowing the earth to absorb any of the deck's negative energy. Similarly, you can use the natural healing powers of sunlight or moonlight to clear your deck, always being sure to protect your deck from the elements. Above all else, when clearing and blessing your deck, think of the deck as your connection to Spirit and that which is sacred. Treat it with respect and reverence.
"Marking" Your Deck
Once your deck is "clean," hold your hands around the deck and speak your mission aloud, saying "I consecrate this deck as my tool for ___________ (see sample blessings below). The ideal would be to do this kind of blessing in a group, with a supportive friend or colleague as "witness" for your mission and where you could witness others' commitments to their Tarot decks. After you have voiced your mission, the next step is to "mark" your deck with something uniquely you (such as a kiss, a drop of oil that you like, your breath, or even your saliva). This step makes the deck truly your own. Then I suggest you follow up immediately (within twenty-four hours) by doing a reading. This seals the work you have done and ensures that your mission "sticks."
In my experience, developing a Tarot mission statement can be very empowering. Many people find that their relationship with their Tarot deck is dramatically altered once they have created and articulated their framework for its use. You may be quite surprised at how your deck will function after this powerful process. Be prepared for some spectacular insights and results. Be prepared to feel spiritually uplifted and connected.
A note of caution: Remember that power does not emanate from the Tarot deck. Power comes from Spirit working inside of you and through you. So use the ideas mentioned in this article only if they feel right to you. Tarot is a uniquely individual spiritual tool, so again, remember that the most powerful and beneficial Tarot deck blessings, clearing techniques, and mission statements are the ones you create. Trust in Spirit, and in yourself. The results may surprise you.
Sample Tarot Mission Statements
I consecrate this deck to bring light wherever there is darkness.
I consecrate this deck for guidance and wisdom for myself and others for the higher good of all concerned.
I consecrate this deck to enlighten myself and others more fully.
May all who use and touch this deck know the love of Spirit and be drawn into the light of Spirit.
I dedicate this deck to serve others and to bring healing and peace to all who seek its wisdom.
I dedicate this deck to the development of my intuition so that I may be a source of guidance to others.

Why Be Bothered by Christian Concert?

Why Be Bothered by Christian Concert?
Thursday September 30, 2010
After we talked last week about the protests aimed at an evangelical Christian concert being held at Fort Bragg, I got an email from a reader who said, "Seriously, why is this a big deal? It's a concert. If it makes the Christians feel better to have a concert, who is it hurting? Find something more important to complain about."
Rather than respond via email, I'm going to post my answer here, because believe it or not, this IS something important to complain about - although I would point out that discussing something is not necessarily the same as complaining, but that's probably just a matter of semantics. Anyway, here's why it matters.
The Supreme Court of the United States of America has three tests to determine whether an activity is unconstitutional based upon religious issues, and this concert seems to meet all three requirements. One of the reasons it could easily be considered unconstitutional is because this concert serves no other purpose but to evangelize. Based on the case of Lemon v. Kurtzman in 1971 (also known as the Lemon test), if an activity has no non-religious purpose, or specifically promotes a religion, it would fall under the heading of unconstitutional, because of the Establishment Clause in the First Amendment.
Second, there's what's called the Coercion Test. From Lee v. Weisman in 1992, the court says "Unconstitutional coercion occurs when: (1) the government directs (2) a formal religious exercise (3) in such a way as to oblige the participation of objectors." If soldiers who didn't attend were told that they could miss the concert but had to stay in the barracks and clean instead, as a few people have claimed, then that's coercion.
Finally, there's the Endorsement Test (from Allegheny County v. ACLU). If an activity conveys "a message that religion is 'favored,' 'preferred,' or 'promoted' over other beliefs," then it unconstitutionally endorses religion. This concert didn't have any performers from other religions, so it endorses evangelical Christianty.
This is why people are upset. This is not something where we should be sitting back and saying, "Oh, just let the Christians have their concert, it's not hurting anyone." Because by permitting it, and endorsing it, the United States government is telling every one of those non-Christian soldiers that their rights have less value than their fundamentalist peers. And that goes against every single thing that those men and women will someday fight -- and possibly die -- for some day. Their freedoms matter, and so do yours and mine. That's why we should be talking about this, and that's why it shouldn't just go away, and that's why groups like Americans United for Church and State (AU) and the Military Religious Freedom Foundation have a never-ending job to do.
As Rev. Barry Lynn said, "It's not the Army's job to convert Americans to Christianity."

MRFF Concerned About AF Academy

MRFF Concerned About AF Academy
Wednesday September 29, 2010
The Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF) has sent a letter to the Secretary of Defense, claiming that there is an increasingly hostile situation at the Air Force Academy involving Christian proselytizing. Based on information from a cadet who has asked to remain anonymous and parents of a recent graduate, the letter states thate there is a group of underground cadets pretending to be fundamentalist Christians so they can stay in good standing at the Academy, and also calls for an investigation of a group called Cadets for Christ, which has exhibited some fairly cult-like behavior. In addition, the letter calls for the immediate public release of the results of a recent survey of religious behavior on base.
The letter, signed by MRFF founder and president Mikey Weinstein, also asks that the Department of Defense start an immediate investigation of the Academy's "incontrovertible and unconstitutional establishment of a fundamentalist Christian culture/meme amongst its cadet and staff populations and its concomitant failure to train and educate its professional staff and Cadet Wing about the Constitutionally-mandated imperatives of the Bill of Rights, especially church-state separation."

What is the difference between the Florida Gators and a sand castle?
Nothing, once the Tide Rolls in.
My friend who told me this is a Gator Fan, and I'm an 'Bama fan. And, as anyone who keeps up with college football knows, the Tide Rolled all over the Gators.
Sweet victory!

I am wondering why the people who send these links don't at least give us a
clue as to what they are sending. I will not open any link that someone
doesn't tell me what I might be opening. Just to send it as unknown, even
through a group that I belong to, seems kind of iffy to me. I probably
just dump a lot of really cool links because of this. Am I the only one that
this bothers? Will keep deleting until senders give me a clue as to what
I am opening. Thanks for listening.
Blessed Be!

Most of these links are from people whose email accounts got hacked and the hackers are sending out viruses/spam. the real owners may not even be aware of it.
