Women's Spiritual Leadership & A New Kinship with Nature Emerging on

Posted by: "karentate108" karentate108@ca.rr.com   specialjourn

Sun Feb 13, 2011 11:28 am (PST)



Greetings Friends and Family,

Be sure to tune in LIVE Wednesday, or from the archives at your
convenience.....
*
Kathe Schaaf* - one of the original co-founders of Gather the Women
Global Matrix, served on the leadership circle of that collaborative
global community for five years. She is an Ambassador for the Parliament
of the World's Religions and in 2010, she co-founded Women of Spirit and
Faith, an organization to invite the many brilliant threads of feminine
spiritual leadership into relationship and to support emerging patterns
for transformation. Tune in and hear our discussion - The *Alchemy of
Women's Spiritual Leadership* as we delve into how the energy of the
"Sacred Feminine is rising globally among women from many diverse
spiritual perspectives resulting in potent conversations at the
intersection of feminism and faith - which may be giving rise to a whole
new paradigms of women's leadership. We will discuss many aspects
related to this theme, including how the voices of compassion, unity and
hope can be more potent and powerful than those of fear and separation.
*
At the bottom of the hour* -
*
**James William Gibson* - author of *A Re-Enchanted World; A New
Kinship with Nature* will discuss a yearning for a spiritual connection
with Nature that is making a broad comeback from Greenpeace eco-warriors
to evangelical Christians preaching "creation care and geneticists
speaking openly of human-animal kinship. As we grapple with dire
environmental disasters, re-enchantment may be the final hope for
protecting the world in which we all must live.*

*Time: 6PM Pacific You'll have to make adjustments for your time
zone. And the show is available later from the archives where you might
listen at your convenience.

The Alchemy of Women's Spiritual Leadership*

*Talking points:*

~ I have witnessed the energy of the 'Sacred Feminine'
is rising globally among women from many diverse spiritual perspectives
(including at the Parliament of the World's Religions in 2009 in
Australia)

~ There are some potent conversations at the
intersection of feminism and faith which may be giving rise to whole new
paradigm of women's leadership.

~ It is important to have intentional conversations
about the many dimensions of diversity in the community of women right
now ... which includes racial issues like economic inequity, white
privilege, etc but also includes the gaps between activists/ scholars
and faith/spirit and eastern/western and inter-spiritually and
inter-generationally.

~ How can the feminine voices of compassion, unity and
hope become more real and compelling than the voices of fear and
separation?

~ The community of spiritual women in North America is
a complex pattern of overlapping networks, initiatives and impulses.
Individual women are often strongly identified with a particular segment
of the larger community: secular feminists, feminist theologians, women
of faith, religious women, and women of spirit not affiliated with
religion. There are subtle cultural forces at work that lead to
separation and tension between these groups.

~ Where are the naturally arising opportunities for
partnerships and synergy?

~ Many women's organizations and networks are
structured in traditional 'masculine' ways utilizing hierarchical
leadership models and processes which do not invite the deepest feminine
wisdom or effectively catalyze social change.

~ How can we nurture the leadership and power that is
emerging from women now?

~ How do we catalyze our collective transformational
power as women?

~ The Alchemy of our Spiritual Leadership: Women
Redefining Power to be held April 28 - May 1 in San Francisco will be an
opportunity for women from many diverse networks and organizations to
explore these kind of questions together.

Space Weather News for Feb. 14, 2011
http://spaceweather.com

EARTH-DIRECTED SOLAR ACTIVITY: Solar activity increased sharply over the weekend with the eruption of an M6.6-class solar flare from behemoth sunspot 1158. The blast produced a strong burst of radio waves heard in the loudspeakers of shortwave receivers around the dayside of our planet, and it appears to have hurled a faint coronal mass ejection toward Earth. Sights and sounds from the event are highlighted on today's edition of http://spaceweather.com.

What's Happening Today:

Valentines Day

St Valentines Day

Great Feast in Heaven:Kemetic (ancient Egyptian) holy day. The enemies are struck. There is a great feast in Heaven. Very favorable.

Arianrhod steps over the magical wand of Math:Celtic holy day. Arianrhod steps over the magical wand of Math, which manifests truth, to prove her virginity. The wand causes the seed of her lover, which is in her womb, to ripen, grow and give forth in an instant, giving birth to Dylan Ail Ton, whose name means "Sea, son of Wave". Dylan makes straight for the sea, and is accidentally slain by his uncle Gofannon. Her brother, Gwyddion, snatches up the after-birth to incubate Llew Llaw Gyffes, the great archer. — Celtic information provided by Shelley M. Greer ©1997.

Parentalia:Roman holy day. Parentalia and Feralia (Feb. 13-18), a purification festival of peace and love devoted to ancestors and to Goddesses Mania and Vesta.

Festival of Love:Greek holy day. Festival of Love, honoring Aphrodite (Feb. 14-21).

Lupercal:Roman holy day. Lupercal (also called Lupercalia), the second day of Parentalia (Feb. 13-18), a day of fertility dedicated to Juno-Lupa, the she-wolf. Women's pleas for children are granted. Origin of Valentine's Day.

St. Valentine's Day:There is no connection between either of the two St Valentines (a Roman priest martyred in the third century and a martyred bishop) who share this feast day with our contemporary courtship rituals. Most likely the coupling aspects of the holiday are remnants of a full-moon festival in honor of Juno Februata.

The custom of sending valentines may derive from the custom of drawing lots (names of partners) at the ancient Roman festival of Lupercalia (see Feb 15) or with the worship of Juno Februata in whose honor on the eve of her feastday (Feb 15), according to my Lives of the Saints, boys drew names of girls. St Francis de Sales trying to abolish this heathen practice in the mid-sixteenth century suggested drawing the names of the saints (with boys drawing the names of female saints, and vice versa). This does not seem to have caught on. According to Hutton, the custom of sending valentines began in England in the 15th century, and was more popular at first among the middle classes, who sent signed valentines (not anonymous ones). In Japan it is now the custom for women to give chocolates to men on this day, particularly their superiors at work.

In the Middle Ages, people believed that birds chose their mates on this day. This was the time of year when the courtship flights of birds, particularly of members of the crow family, were visible. In honor of the marriage of the birds, Mrs. Sharp (an alter ego of Sarah Ban Breathnach), sets out treats for the birds on this day: peanut butter balls rolled in bird seed, raisins and chopped nuts, chilled in the freezer and hung in a netted produce bag.

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

Sun Feb 13, 2011 8:49 pm (PST)



Lots of Love For St. Valentine's Day

WHAT YOU NEED:
*A RED CANDLE
*A PIECE OF PAPER & PEN
*A JAR TO HOLD ASHES
*A LOVE POEM WRITTEN BY YOU
*A PIECE OF RED CLOTH 3-6 INCHES
*A RED RIBBON AT LEAST 3 INCHES

1. Write the full name and the birth date for both you and your Valentine.
2. Say the love poem that you made up repeatedly while burning the paper.
3. After the ashes cool, wrap them into the cloth and tie it closed with the ribbon. Depending on the type of cloth you use, you may need to place the cooled ashes in plastic before you wrap them.
4. Give this to your Valentine!

(Please note: When writing your love poem, avoid taking away the free will of the person you love!)
MOJO FOR LOVE

This spell is to attract love.

You need; 1 red cloth, red thread, rose petals, jasmine petals,
and 9 pumpkin seeds, some of your hair and toe nail clippings.
Do this spell during the waxing moon. Sew your cloth into a small
pouch (sachet), leaving the top open. While sewing chant the
following words or improvise attraction words out load;

"Silver Lady, Golden Lord, bring true love to me.
Bring me love, make it come, love be mine, harming none."

Keep chanting while adding your ingredients, thinking of your
desires coming true. Sew your sachet shut. Hold your sachet in
your writing hand. Visualize a beam of light coming from the
universe hitting your mojo. Then visualize your own energies
charging your mojo. Visualize beams of love, see the power
growing, then say;

"Attractive I will be, I am open to love,
True love will be mine, blessed from above.
Mojo of Love make attraction my power,
For now is the time now is the hour.
This I charge and so it is!"

Ask the God and Goddess to bless you with a mate,
thank them for their blessings you know are on the way.
Then carry or wear your mojo with you till you find your
mate.

PETALS OF LOVE

A small mirror and fresh flowers. They can be daisies, carnations, violets, lilacs or gardenias, but roses of any color are best. If you do use roses, remove the thorns from one of the stems. Buy or collect 7 or 8 stems of the chosen flower. If cutting them yourself, thank the plant for its sacrifice in any words or actions that you see fit. Remember-nature is a power source. Magicians respect it.

Place the flowers in a large vase or bowl. Nearby place a small mirror in a position so that you can see your face within it. Sit or kneel comfortably before the flowers. Remove 1 flower from the vase. Stroke it over your head, your hair, your ears. Move it up and down your cheek and chin. As you do this, open yourself to the loving energies the flower is radiating out to you.
Close your eyes and brush their lids lightly with the flowers. Say these words:

"I SEE LOVE"

Move the flowers lower. Smell its rich scent. Drink in its aroma. Let it fill your soul. Say:
"I BREATHE LOVE"

Open your eyes. Move the flowers away from your head and above it. Say:
"I HOLD LOVE"

Lower the flower to your heart area. Stroke it up and down, soothing it, letting its energies melt into yours. Say:
"I FEEL LOVE"
Move it down to your stomach. Press it gently against your skin/clothing. Say:
"I NOURISH LOVE"

Still holding the flower in your hands before you, gaze at your reflection in the mirror. Say these words:

"LOVE IS BEFORE ME"
"LOVE IS BEHIND ME"
"LOVE IS BESIDE ME"
"LOVE IS ABOVE ME"
"LOVE IS BELOW ME"
"LOVE IS WITHIN ME"
"LOVE FLOWS FROM ME"
"LOVE COMES TO ME"
"I AM LOVED"

Place the flowers in a spot where you'll see them several times a day. If possible, wear or carry the flowers with you. When it begins to wilt, bury it in the earth, thanking it for its energies. Of Love.

Spell to Induce Lust

You'll need: ginseng (enchanted) , hibiscus (enchanted) , cinnamon - ground or whole (enchanted) and red candles.

Make an infusion of the ginseng and hibiscus. If you're using whole cinnamon sticks, stick them in the tea. If it's ground, sprinkle it on. Surround yourself with the (lit) red candles, and drink the tea. If you find it too bitter tasting, you can also add the tea to a bath.

SWEET BOTTLE SPELL

You will need:
1 Popsicle stick
sugar
water
1 qt. jar w/ screw top lid

Write the name of the person on one side of the stick and yours on the other. Place the stick in the jar,
fill the jar half full with sugar chanting:

"In this sugar, we both stand back to back, yet hand to hand.
Change------name-------sour thoughts of me to sweet forgiving
thoughts, I plead"

Add water until jar is 3/4 full, say:" With this water I wash away all that keeps us now at bay. Sugar water, I now pray, let forgiveness come my way."

Cap the jar tightly and shake it 9 times saying: "Sugar syrup do your thing and ----name---- forgiveness quickly bring.
Soak him in thoughts of me so sweet that his forgiveness is complete."

Shake Jar nine times whenever you need to.

To Ease an Unrequited Love

When the torment of a love unaccepted and unreturned weights heavily upon the heart and soul, you may chose to purge it with fire. To start, kneel before a blazing fire with a handful of dried vervain leaves. Toss the entire handful into the blaze at once along with the words:

"Creature of fire, flames that roar. Purge me of pain, let it torment me no more.

Consume the hurt, that my soul is set free. As I will, so mote it be!"

As the fragrance of the herb penetrates the air, breathe it in deeply,and visualize your entire being filling with peace and calm.~Gwydion O'Hara


A Love Spell Of A Gentler Sort

(Chant)
See me, beloved, though I fear your eyes.
Hear me, beloved, though I fear the sound.
Tell me, beloved, though I fear your voice.
Know me, beloved, though I fear your heart.

This is most definitely not a binding type of spell, although it does bring near you(as in physical location and general attention) the one you think you love at first, and anyone else you might love or who might love you. It will also give you confidence(if you don't have it) to speak to her(him). I am not certain, but it might also bring you to a truer love than the rest.~source unknown

Ritual for Letting Go
© 2001 Silvermuse

Needed: 1 Blue Candle
Lavender incense

Method:

Cast the Circle in Air and Spirit. This is done by lighting the incense with a wooden match, taking the incenseand drawing a Circle around yourself in its smoke. If you like you can say some words, such as:

"Hail Far Lady, Ruler of us all, Watch over me as I lay my Circle of Power. Hold me between the worlds and realms, in a place where there is not time and where magick is made." (Repeat for the God, using the same words just substituting Fair Lady for Great Hunter, and Ruler of us all for Father of us all).

Replace the incense in its holder. A good idea to catch the ash that falls off the incense during the ritual is to catch it is a sea shell, save the ash in this from all of your rituals and then let is go every Full Moon and make a wish as you do so.

Then, light the Blue candle, (again with a wooden match), and cast the circle with Spirit.

This time, take your index finger of your power hand, and retrace the Circle boundaries with your finger. It doesn't have to be exactbut try to make it as much the same as possible. You may wish to say no words, or use the same words again, or say these words.

"Hail Fair Goddess, Mother of all. Hail Great Hunter, Father of all. I invite you to meet with
me within my Circle of Power"

Now, centre yourself. You can do this by imagining a root coming out of where your tailbone is, and then going into the ground. Imagine that you are soaking up the energies of the Earth and giving Her your stresses and strains. Once you feel relaxed you can begin.

Enter into a meditative state. Once there visualize that which you want to get rid of. If it is a feeling, feel it. Tell the God and Goddess what you want to get rid of and why. If you are scared of being over heard then you can do this in your mind.

Then, when you have stated what you wish to loose, and still holding the visualization in your minds eye, Astral Project. You can do this by continuing to meditate and reaching a further state, and then imagining that you are entering a portal/door way. Open the door and find on the other side what you want. This could be a house, or fields, or a favourite place of yours. Even an enchanted wood is ok. These all exist if you want them too.

When you get here a person is waiting for you. You may not be able to make them out, (see any facial features), or you may be able to see them perfectly, either is fine. Go towards this person, sit down and have a talk with him/her. This is the Spirit of what you wish to say goodbye too.

When you are finished, say goodbye and anything else you may wish to say. Give him/her a hug if you wish too and then walk back towards the door. Open the door and visualize your room, you are walking towards your room and when you reach there open your eyes.

Say: As is my will so mote it be!

Extinguish any incense that you had burning. Close your Circle of Power by saying:

Hail Circle, I thank thee for protecting me now go and release me.

Thank the God and Goddess in your usual way. You can leave any candles burning for as long as you want but extinguish the blue candle. Do not use it for any other ritual but keep it and light it, (with a wooden match), any time you feel sad about this situation.

Extinguish the blue candle with a snuffer. If you don't again you could use a sea shell and place it over the flame. Try not to blow the flame out.

Valentine's Day

The South is a dream of flowers
With a jewel for sky and sea,
Rose-crowns for the dancing hours,
Gold fruits upon every tree;
But cold from the North The wind blows forth
That blows my love to me.
The stars in the South are gold
Like lamps between sky and sea;
The flowers that the forests hold.
Like stars between tree and tree;
But little and white Is the pale moon's light
That lights my love to me.
In the South the orange grove
Makes dusk by the dusky sea,
White palaces wrought for love
Gleam white between tree and tree,
But under bare boughs Is the little house
Warm-lit for my love and me.

~ Edith Nesbit
1858 - 1924

Goddess Of The Day: VENUS
Lupercalia (Rome)

Themes: Love; Passion; Romance; Sexuality
Symbols: Doves; Flowers; Berries; Trees; Pine Cones

About Venus: Venus was
originally an Italic goddess of blossoms; hearts and flowers have slowly become attributed to her loving, passionate energies. In fact, her name became the root for the word to venerate - to lift up, worship, or
esteem. So it is that Venus greets prespring efforts for uplifting our
hearts with positive relationships.

To Do Today: During
Lupercalia, an ancient predecessor of Valentine's Day, single girls put
their names in a box, and unmarried men drew lots to see with whom they
would be paired off for the coming year. To be more modern-minded, try
pinning five bay leaves to your pillow instead to dream of future loves. If you're married or otherwise involved, steep the bay leaves in water
and drink the resulting tea to strengthen the love in your relationship.

To encourage balance in a relationship, bind together Venus's symbols, a pine cone and a
flower, and put them somewhere in your home. Or, to spice up a
passionate moment, feed fresh berries to each others and drink a berry
beverage from one cup (symbolizing united goals and destinies).

In Roman tradition,
anywhere there's a large stone adjacent to a tall tree, Venus is also
there. Should you know of such a place, go there today and commune with
her warm, lusty energy.
