I object in the strongest terms possible to the statement "O'Donnell is way
to attractive to be a politician." Who the hell decides who and what is
"attractive?" This is an insult to every woman on the planet, as it is based
on a culturally biased view of attractiveness that has been toxic to women
for generations.

Laurel objects to my opinion of O'Donnell's appearance? Fair enough, but maybe there is some other reason why O'Donnell's not taken seriously? I don't think there really is. Is it ok to take un hombre mas guapo seriously? Would there be any objection if I had hots for Scott Brown? Or John-John? Or Sean Bielat (He cleaned up nice too ;)
Grant a beholder his own eye and lighten up a little. Some of us are just as happy have find grin as a scowl.

I think O'Donnell isn't taken seriously because of her comments and public
statements and her extreme right wing positions. Many people do not take
Sarah Palin seriously either. Those who take both these women seriously
mostly tend to do so for ideological reasons.

Costumes are encouraged but not required. Although this is our Halloween event,
please note that it takes place on Saturday the 30th of October. Of course, a
few hours after we open, midnight will roll around and we'll kick off the
official start of Halloween!

Dracula's Ball takes place at Shampoo Nightclub in Philadelphia, on Willow
Street between 7th and 8th Streets. The club has a large enclosed parking lot
which is free, but it does fill up early during Ball events. Doors open at 9pm
and the event ends at 2am. In addition to live bands, there are 3 DJs on 3
dancefloors, vendors, candy and door prizes. The official DB website can be

To hold a memorial for a special pet who has passed on, place a picture of your
pet (preferably taken when it was in its prime) on your altar. Lightdirectional
candles, and place them around the picture. Light a black candle, and place it
next to or on top of the picture. Meditate on your pet's life and the joy it
brought you. Look at the picture and speak words of peace for your pet's soul:

Like the wind, soar free through the heavens.
Like a flame, warm the hearts of those who think of you.
Like water, let your spirit flow ever onward,
Like the earth, be steadfast awaiting rebirth.
As the wheel turns, may you find as much joy in your next life as you gave in
this life.

Homer, The Odyssey

In the great hall, her great loom stood.
And upon it, a vast fabric, woven upon a fine warp.
Every day, she wove upon the great loom.
And every night, by torchlight, she unwove it.
~Homer, The Odyssey

The figure of Penelope, the loyal wife of Odysseus, was made familiar to us by
the great poet Homer. While her husband was thought to be lost - in reality, he
was simply wandering back from the Trojan war - Penelope was fending off
suitors, claiming that she had to finish a large weaving before she could
remarry. Each night she would tear out what she had woven that day, so that her
progress was slow indeed.

Behind this queen stands a larger, more cosmic figure. The Great Goddess of
Earth continually makes and unmakes her great creation, life. Each spring she
weaves a new tapestry of color and fragrance and sound. Each fall, she unweaves
that tapestry, only to start afresh the next year. In the ceaseless making and
unmaking that is our planet's pattern, we can either see a hopeless progression
into death or a hopeful movement toward eventual rebirth. Both patterns are
there; we can choose which one to focus on.

Today's Goddess:   Yama-no-Shinbo Bettar-tchi (Japan)

Today's Goddess: Yama-no-Shinbo
Bettar-tchi (Japan)

Themes: Luck; Wealth; Prosperity; Protection; Joy
Symbols: Good-Luck Charms

About Yama-no-Shinbo: This Japanese Goddess of prosperity and good fortune
joins in today's festivities by blessing all efforts to improve our luck. Her
name means "mother of the mountain", which, in feng shui (the art of placement
in accordance with a region's energy patterns for the most beneficial result),
represents a protective, ancient power that brings happiness and wealth to
those within its shadow.

To Do Today: This annual festival takes place near the shrine of Ebisu to
encourage good luck. Sticky items are among the favored tokens carried today,
to encourage good fortune to literally stick to the participants. For our
purposes this might translate into using double-sided tape inside a piece of
clothing so that the outside can gather Yama-no-Shinbo's fortunate energy.
Alternatively, put a symbol of an area of your life that needs better luck
(such as a dollar bill for money) on the refrigerator with a magnet, while
whispering a brief prayer to the goddess. This action symbolizes prosperity
sticking with you (and attracting right energy).

Take out any tokens or objects around your home that you value for their lucky
energy. Clean them off, and ask Yama-no-Shinbo to energize them anew for
protection. Put your hands over the tops of these, visualize a personally
lucky-colored light filling them, and say,

"Goddess of fortune, fill this charm;
keep me ever safe from harm." )0(

Clean Water Libation Ritual

Clean Water Libation Ritual


Today is the anniversary of the enactment of the Clean Water Act. Water is
precious to Pagans of various paths and to all because it is the elixir of
life.
Pour a libation outside from a crystal chalice filled with pure spring water.
Pull together your coven or a circle of earth-wise friends. Have the group
recite while pouring the libation:

We honor the God.
We honor the Goddess.
We salute the spirits that animate nature.
We remember and appreciate the ancestors.

Lift the cup, then begin pouring again.

In honor of the elementals, precious water to each of you we extend.
