DailyOM: Creating A Harmonious Home

Posted by: "Cher Chirichello" CHIC0411@YAHOO.COM   chic0411

Wed Jan 12, 2011 9:35 am (PST)





DailyOM - A Home Of Love
Today's DailyOM brought to you by:



January 12, 2011
Creating A Harmonious Home
A Home Of Love
Our homes can become chaotic; it is at these times that we have the power to decide to bring more love into our homes.

At their best, our homes act as our sanctuaries. They are the nests we return to for rest and nurturing nourishment before we venture out once again to spread our wings and fly. But there are times that we may feel quite differently about our homes—times when we feel surrounded by turmoil rather than harmony, or mired in chaos rather than immersed in peace. It is at these times that we have the power to decide to bring more love into our homes.

When we choose love, we are choosing to begin within. With a deep breath, we close our eyes and ask that when we open them again, we will see where we can make shifts to create greater harmony. These may be inner shifts, such as accepting others' personality traits and working with them rather than against them. Or they may be changes we can make with items around the house--removing the ones that cause frustration and displaying things that make us feel good. Then, we reach out to the people with whom we share our homes--whether they are family members or another combination of people who share our space. We can help to shift their perceptions toward the positive by asking each person to think about their ideal living situation. After allowing some time for reflection, gathering to discuss each person's ideas may lead to the discovery that there are conflicting concepts about what your shared home should provide. Once this information is out in the
open, we have a roadmap f! or creating balance and harmony from seemingly disparate desires. Together, agreements can be made to enable all to take the steps needed to create a unified vision.

When we have consciously chosen to make our home a place of harmony, then love's energy can expand throughout the lives of all who live there. Each person will be nurtured, allowing them to take that peace and serenity with them into the world, sharing it with whomever they may encounter; and making every space they enter a warmer and more loving place for everyone.

Get Ready for Imbolc!

Day 2: Legends and Lore of Imbolc
From Patti Wigington, your Guide to Paganism / Wicca
February is a time of festival and celebration in many cultures. Today we'll be talking about some of the deities honored during the season of Imbolc, as well as some customs from around the world.
Imbolc Deities

Although Imbolc is traditionally associated with Brighid, the hearth goddess of Ireland (and we'll be talking more about her tomorrow), there are other gods and goddesses who are represented at this time of year. From the Italian Aradia to Vesta of Rome, this is a time to celebrate deities of home and hearth...Read More


Up Helly Aa

In the Shetland Islands of Scotland, villagers celebrate their heritage, which is a rich mix of Norse influence and traditional Scottish culture. For this annual celebration, there are costumed Viking marauders, lots of drinking, and a flaming longship - and that's just the beginning. Although Up Helly Aa is a relatively new tradition, it's clear that the folks of the Shetlands appreciate their Pagan history...Read More

Februalia

Beginning on January 30, and running until February 2, the ancient Romans celebrated Februalia. This festival was held in honor of a god of both death and purification. It began a month-long period of sacrifice and atonement...Read More

Groundhog Day

Okay, so the groundhog isn't really Pagan at all - after all, groundhogs are native to North America. However, you might be surprised to learn that the custom of watching for the groundhog's shadow actually does have roots in some old Pagan traditions...Read More

Valentine's Day

We all know Valentine was a Christian saint, so does Valentine's Day really have a Pagan connection? Like many other Christian holidays, it's actually rooted in Pagan customs. Learn how Valentine's Day as we know it today evolved from the Romans' naughty "love lottery!"...Read More

Lupercalia

Lupercalia was the Roman tradition that started the whole Valentine's Day custom. This ancient fertility festival was originally held in honor of the god Faun, but later was adapted to celebrate Remus and Romulus, the twin founders of Rome.

Tomorrow: The Goddess Brighid

This Celtic goddess of home and domesticity is the focus for many Pagan celebrations at Imbolc. Tomorrow, we'll talk about the legends of Brighid, and how you can honor her for the Imbolc season.

Goddess of The Day:  Nepthys All Soul's Day (Egypt)

Posted by: "Cher Chirichello" CHIC0411@YAHOO.COM   chic0411

Wed Jan 12, 2011 8:26 pm (PST)



Goddess of The Day: Nepthys
All Soul's Day (Egypt)

Themes: Death; Spirits; Rebirth
Symbols: Fire;Basket, Myrhh

About Nepthys: This Egyptian
funerary Goddess has a hawk for a sacred animal. Together they guide
and watch the souls of our loved ones in the afterlife. In Egyptian
tradition, Nepthys lives in the east, where she can receive the rising
sun, a symbol of the hopefulness she can instill and of resurrection.

To Do Today: Today was Nepthys's
festival day in ancient Egypt. As with other festivals for the dead, it was a time not only to propitiate the Goddess with offerings of
aromatic incense like myrrh but also to satisfy any wandering spirits.
If someone you care about passed away during the last year, burn some
incense for this Goddess and leave a small basket filled with a token
for her on your altar. This acts as a prayer to Nepthys to keep a
watchful eye on that soul and grant them peace.

If you find your sense of
hopefulness waning under everyday pressures, light a candle honoring
Nepthys today, and every day, until you sense a difference in attitude. Try to choose a candle whose color represents hope and change to you
(sprout green is one good choice). Inscribe the candle with a symbol of
what you most need to turn things around so that this Goddess can shine
dawn's revitalizing light into your heart and begin lifting some of that heaviness.)0( By Patricia Telesco ~ From "365 Goddess"

Winter Car Charm

Posted by: "Cher Chirichello" CHIC0411@YAHOO.COM   chic0411

Wed Jan 12, 2011 8:28 pm (PST)



Winter Car Charm

It's time to honor the dormant time, and allow yourself to rest before the
active growth of new ideas. Here is a "do nothing" spell. Place two
unlit green candles in the center of a space. Place a needle and thread
and a pair of scissors alongside the candles. Place a small cup of dirt
and a packet of seeds on the other side of the candles. Think about the
need for all living things to be dormant in order to gather the energy
necessary for growth, and remind yourself that you too need that time of rest. Think about the projects you want to start and nurture in the
coming year. Now give yourself permission to do nothing about them until you have rested and replenished your energy.

Crone's Corner -  Healing Breath Spell

Posted by: "Cher Chirichello" CHIC0411@YAHOO.COM   chic0411

Wed Jan 12, 2011 8:29 pm (PST)



Crone's Corner - Healing Breath Spell


Walk outside today, or open a window, so you
can be in a place where the air is clean and clear. Prepare your sacred
space by burning frankincense or myrrh—or a combination of both. Light a white candle, and circle it with gems that correspond with the Sun's
glow. These include: amber, citrine, topaz, and pyrite. Face east and
give thanks for the life-giving air. Concentrate on the miracle of
breath. Imagine each time you inhale you are breathing in pure, golden,
cleansing air, and when you exhale you are forcing impurities from your
body. Draw in several deep breaths as you count to four, and fill your
lungs to capacity. Hold the breath in for a four-count, and release it.
Repeat and relax. ~Ember

Daily Aromatherapy...Lemongrass Oil and Ivory Soap

What gives Ivory Soap it's familiar scent? It's Lemongrass essential oil. A pleasant, clean fragrance used in soaps, perfumes and deodorants. A great antiseptic, studies show that Lemongrass is more effective against staph infection than either penicillin or streptomycin.

Song from Brittany, France.

Posted by: "Cher Chirichello" CHIC0411@YAHOO.COM   chic0411

Wed Jan 12, 2011 8:32 pm (PST)



Brunissen lived in the forest of Broceliande.
She was dressed in high elegant silk.
Her fine hair was tied with gold.
Her face was beautiful and pure.
Her perfection never faded,
not at dawn, nor at dusk. She shone
and gleamed, radiant, beside those
whowalked with her. On her head
she wore the feathers of peacock.
In her hand, she held red roses.
~Song from Brittany, France.

The beauty of woman is like the beauty of the Goddess and of nature. There is no comparison
between the gold of an autumn leaf and the pale green of the same leaf in earliest spring.
Each is incomparably beautiful.

So it is with our own beauties, as we move through life. Yet, while we can praise the beauty
of autumn, it is harder for us to embrace the inevitable changes in the female body as it nears
its autumn years. Those who plan weekends of driving to see autumn foliage can also disdain
the tiny wrinkles that reveal traces of laughter and pain.

What a life we would lead if we could love our physical changes as fully as we do the changes
of the world around us! The autumn years would then, not be something to dread and fear
and resist, but would be a celebration of the harvest of life.
