Subject: [which_witch_is_witch] Who is the owner of Witchs Secret Blogspot
I noticed someone has started a blog and has put our groups on it where you can see the daily digest come up, the problem
with that is my groups are set to private and your going against our groups policy. Please take my groups off the blog, I think
there is also other group owners that also want to be taken off...No one is upset or mad but this is a privacy issue..Please take
my groups off (Which Witch is Witch) and any other groups I have.
Cher
I was informed of this on another group and you might be interested in this link: http://witchessecret.blogspot. com/
One of the group members is re-posting the daily digests from yours
and other groups to their personal blog as content. It appears there are 5 yahoo groups who have had all of their daily digests posted there for the last two years. Having my own private posts to those groups in this list that I am a member of angers me greatly. I didn't write those
posts for anyone on the web to access. I'm uncertain what steps I can
take in protecting the content I have posted. I had hoped to offer each
of you a list of members that are a part of all of your lists. I have
never had an interest in the other members of your lists and so did not
realize that some of the lists members were set to private. I hope you will find this helpful.

Good or Evil?
Posted by: "holly@ravenoriginals.com" holly@ravenoriginals.com hollyberrysheart
Thu Oct 27, 2011 6:17 am (PDT)
This morning I was greeted straight away with the 6's.. I was at first
thinking .. Oh great! I then asked could I not get a better number.. and
then I changed my thought patterns.. Why is it 666 should be considered
evil? Why is it that I think it does? well from conditioning .. I have
always been told by others that it was evil so it must be.. right? NO!
The angels want us to change our way of thinking ... just because
someone has told you that this is the meaning of whatever it is .. that
doesn't mean it is all truth... meditate on it for yourself and go
within to find the TRUE answer.. the TRUE meaning of what lies before
you.
Here's something I found on the 6's that may shed more light this
subject of angelic numbers.
666 was known as a number of higher dimensional light and there are
those that have deliberately created fear around these numbers in order
to keep sacred the true geometric knowledge and keep the magical
frequency available for the select few. Those that hold fear around the
numbers then create their own reality, bringing the true negative aspect
of that geometry into their reality. For those that believe 666 to be a
number of darkness, of service to self frequency or indeed a 'devil's
number' as you say, then this is exactly what it shall be. The living
force of the universe is weaved upon a net, a web as it were, a
mathematical web of number frequencies like codes in a computer. These
numbers that exist, flow, change, divide, remain the same, move, feel,
communicate, dance, learn and teach are the very fabric that works it's
magic around you when you use that which you know as the law of
attraction. The fabric of geometric intelligence, the living numbers and
mathematical shapes of the universe, of hyperspace respond to your
consciousness, to your emotions, to your actions and thoughts. These
geometric number frequencies exist within you, within your DNA therefore
your thoughts are intertwined at all times with them. From our
perspective they are one and the same. From your perspective there is a
choice, there is free will. You can choose to believe that any order of
numbers, any geometric shape or symbol or triple number code such as 666
is dark, negative, bad and evil bringing bad luck, omens of disaster and
fear into your lives. Or you can choose to break free from the
deliberate conditioning of others, conditioning that only serves to halt
your evolution and ultimately shift timelines and prevent Ascension of
Earth and Humanity on Earth.

Who needs jobs?

Some of the folks on this list may have seen us on the news:
http://www.cbsnews.com/8301- 18563_162- 20126117/ orchard-growers- offer-jobs- few-choose- to-pick/
The truth is, we are short of help. You don't have to know any spanish, you just need the fortitude to get up on a ladder, fill the bag and fill the bin, without damaging the fruit too much.
Most newbee's get the technique down in a few days. You get paid in U.S. dollars, which for the time being, spend almost anywhere. Many growers offer temporary accommodations, as regulated by the state labor and industries department.
This is a job that will truly bring you close to nature, where there is weather, and thirst and sweat and natural stuff like that. You might even see a coyote, before he steals your lunch.
Lamanister to Yakima, Wenatchee, Chelan, Brewster, Bridgeport or Oroville Washington. Google map us. Come out to "Thu West". Make some money. Get a tan in October. Bring your I-9 documents.

DailyOM: Let Go and Let Flow
Posted by: "Cher Chirichello" CHIC0411@YAHOO.COM chic0411
Thu Oct 27, 2011 5:53 pm (PDT)
DailyOM - Taking a Leap of Faith
Today's DailyOM brought to you by:
October 27, 2011
Let Go and Let Flow
Taking a Leap of Faith
When you make a leap of faith you can accomplish almost anything you set out to do.
Many people, in heeding the guidance of their souls, find themselves contemplating goals that seem outrageous or unattainable. In the mind’s eye, these individuals stand at the edge of a precipice and look out over the abyss at the fruit of their ambition. Some resist the urge to jump, paralyzed by the gap between their current circumstances and the life of their dreams. Others make a leap of faith into the unknown, unsure of what they will encounter but certain that they will gain more in their attempts than they would bowing to self-protective instincts. This leap can be exceedingly difficult for individuals with control issues because the act of embracing uncertainty requires them to trust that surrender will net them the rewards they seek. Yet when you make a leap of faith, believing without a doubt that you will land safely on the other side, you can accomplish almost anything you set out to do.
There have no doubt been times in your life when you chose to go where the universal flow took you. Yet you may encounter instances in which your objectives require you to step outside of the boundaries of your established comfort zone so that you may freely and actively jettison yourself into a new phase of your life. While you may fear what seems to be the inevitable fall, consider that in all likelihood you will find yourself flying. A successful leap of faith requires your attention, as it is the quiet and often indistinct voice of your inner self that will point you toward your ultimate destination. Understand that the leap across the chasm of ambiguity may challenge you in unforeseen ways but you will make it across if you trust yourself.
If your mind and heart resist, you can dampen this resistance by building a bridge of knowledge. The more you know about the leap you are poised to take, the smaller the gap between “here†and “there†will appear to be. Your courageous leap of faith can lead you into uncharted territory, enabling you to build a new, more adventurous life. Though you may anticipate that fear will be your guide on your journey across the abyss, you will likely discover that exhilaration is your constant companion.

What's Happening Today:
Ochi Day (Greek)
Bring Your Jack-o'-Lantern to Work Day
Mulvian Bridge Day
Czech Thanksgiving
Day of the No - Just say "NO"!
Old Slavic feast of Baba and Dedo, protectors of families and elders.
Days of the Dead - In Puebla in Mexico, the accidentados (the souls
of those who died in accidents) return on this day, followed by the angelitos (the souls of dead children) who show up at noon on October 31, to be followed by the souls of dead adults on November 1st.
Altars are adorned with candles, food, and marigolds, the flowers of the dead. Sometimes paths of flower petals are laid to guide the souls from the street to the altar.
Slavic: Mokosh Day - Mokosh was honored on the Friday between Oct 25 and Nov 1, though some fix this date on Oct. 28. Mokosh, Goddess of the waters of the air and the soil, fertility, and bounty, was given offerings of vegetables. Her worship was part of the state religion in the ancient Slavic lands that are now Russia, Poland, and the
Ukraine, and she was patroness of fishing, spinning and weaving.
Celtic Tree Calendar: Ngetal (Reed) - October 28 to November 24.
The Reed Month, is said by some to be most favorable for communication with ancestral spirits and the strengthening of all family ties, with magickal associations with fertility,love, protection, and family concerns. "Thin and slender is the Reed. He stands in clumps at the edge of the river and between his feet hides the swift pike awaiting an unsuspecting minnow to come his way. In his thinness the reed resembles arrows that fly, silver-tipped, up into the unknown air to land at the very source that one had searched for all these years. Firing arrows off into the unknown is an expression of the desire to search out basic truths. If you loose off without direction, the place of landing will be random. If the firing off is carried out with the correct conviction, determination and sense of purpose, then the act becomes secondary to the event that comes both before and after the moment."
Phoenicia: The Phoenician Sun God, Baal of the Heavens, was honored annually in ancient times, on or around this date. He presided over nature and fertility, and was associated with winter rain. Sacred sun-symbolizing bonfires were lit in his honor by his worshipers in Syria.

Today's Goddess: Nicneven Halloween (Various Locations)
Posted by: "Cher Chirichello" CHIC0411@YAHOO.COM chic0411
Thu Oct 27, 2011 7:46 pm (PDT)
Today's Goddess:Nicneven
Halloween (Various Locations)
Themes: Protection; Ghosts; Divination; Peace; Winter
Symbols: Pumpkins; Gourds; Traditional Halloween Fare
About Nicneven: In Scotland, Nicneven is the Crone goddess of Samhain, which is the
predecessor of modern Halloween festivals.
Nicneven governs the realms
of magic and witchcraft and also represents the imminent onset of
winter.
To Do Today: In magic and Celtic traditions, this is the new year - a time when the
veil between worlds grows thin and spirits can
communicate with the
living. Follow the usual customs of carving a pumpkin or turnip for
protection and to illuminate the way for
family spirits to join you in
today's celebrations.
In druidical tradition,
Samhain was a time to rectify any matters causing dissent. Nicneven
provides the magical glue for this purpose.
Take a white piece of paper
on which you've written the reason for anger in a relationship, then
burn it in any hallowed fire source
(the pumpkin candle, or ritual
fires). As you do, ask Nicneven to empower the spell and destroy the
negativity completely.
To inspire Nicneven's wisdom or magical aptitude within, enjoy traditional Halloween fare - apple pie, for example, brings sagacity.
Sparkling
apple cider tickles magical energy. And root crops provide solid
foundations and protection while magical creatures are afoot!.

Druid Reading for Samhain
Posted by: "Cher Chirichello" CHIC0411@YAHOO.COM chic0411
Thu Oct 27, 2011 7:51 pm (PDT)
Druid Reading for Samhain
The celebrations on the eve of All Souls Day, called Halloween, stem from the Celtic New Year
celebration called Samhain. When the Sun goes down on this eve, there is a time between the old year and the creation of the new. Specifically,
this occurs at sunrise. In this twilight of the years, the veil between
this world and the world of the spirit is thin. It is a time when ghosts and spirits can interact with the living, and a time when divination is most effective. This is a sacred time when all warriors were to keep
their swords sheathed. Samhain literally means “end of the summer.†This day marked the last harvest of the summer, and so it is a harvest
celebration. But, because there were only three months in the ancient
Celtic calendar, and no autumn, it is also the beginning of the winter
death that will lead to next year’s regeneration. On this night, the
lord of death reigns, and the Celts protect themselves from this threat
with bonfires and animal sacrifice. Animal sacrifice is closely
associated with divination. In most ancient cultures, the remains of the sacrificed animal were examined to discover the will of the gods and to predict the future. The Druid priests would take advantage of this
auspicious time to look into the events of the upcoming yearâ€"at least up until Beltane, which marked the year’s midpoint. Although predicting
the future is not necessarily the best use of the tarot, this is a good
time to try reading the future. You can do this by laying out three
cards for each of the six months from Samhain to Beltane (you should
have eighteen total cards). Read each set of three cards as a story that will pertain to that month.
