Regarding Questions About My Reviews

Posted by: "gleason.mike@comcast.net" gleason.mike@comcast.net   gleasonm01915

Tue Jan 24, 2012 6:07 am (PST)



Just wanted to let folks know that so far I have received 24 responses to my question regarding whether I should restrict myself to Pagan/Craft/Magical themes only, or continue my eclectic mix of off-topic items as well. Of the 24 responses 19 have been in favor of mixing things up; 5 have been in favor of restricting. Unless I receive an unexpected influx of responses favoring restriction, I will continue with my usual mix - adding in a lot more Pagan-themed music reviews this year.

A Dark Moon Meditation

Posted by: "FPB" radiohawthorne@yahoo.com   radiohawthorne

Tue Jan 24, 2012 12:13 pm (PST)



This week I have for you a Dark Moon Meditation.

The Dark of the Moon can be an exceptionally powerful period. This is a time when we can look more deeply into ourselves and learn what it is that's holding us back in Life. And, hopefully, learn what we can do about that. We'll do our meditation during the first part of the show, then in Part 2, we'll do a protection ritual as Ted Andews leads us in "The Bannishing Ritual of the Pentagram".

So, enjoy as we cast a Widdershins Circle together.

Drop me a line at spiraldance1@excite.com

Some of the music you'll hear on this week's show include; Inkubus Succubus: "Dark Mother"; Alexian: "Crone Chant"; Dead Can Dance: "Snake&Moon"; Enya: "Pilgrim"; Wendy Rule: "Singing to the Bones" and more.
Please listen to The Spiral Dance with Hawthorne each week. It's an online Pagan radio show (Webcast & Podcast). The podcast gives you the option to either<BR>listen to right from the website or download to your
computer. It's FREE and it's fun. Your suggestions and comments are welcome!

Each episode is approximately 75 - 80 minutes. Podcasts remain posted for about 4 or 5 weeks, so you can go back and listen to the other episodes for some great interviews, information and fun!

DO YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY?
Maybe you've composed a new poem and would like to hear it on the radio. If you want to submit audio to The Spiral Dance, send me an email. There are basically no rules - just no harsh language, no commercial
self-promotion and no Christian-bashing. Please let me know what you think about the show. I'm always open to suggestions; email spiraldance1@ excite.com/radiohawthorne@yahoo.com

You can also catch The Spiral Dance with Hawthorne webcast and Podcast by visiting my website to find the links.

Herbal Smoking Mixes, Part One

Let’s finish up the first month of the New Year, and our focused work with the mint family, by making an herbal smoking mix. Any dried mint-family plants you have on hand can be used make a great healing smoke, especially if mixed with some mullein, and perhaps a few other herbs. Smoking can be good for the health of your lungs and your being.
 
Careful application of hot smoke and burning herbs, near the body (smudges), on the body (moxibustion), and through inhalation (smoking) are healing techniques that have been used for thousands of years in myriad cultures around the world. If you choose not to smoke these herbs, you may still wish to try them out as smudges.
 
Herbal Smoking Mix Number One: Combine one large handful cut and sifted commercial mullein leaf and one to three teaspoonfuls of any mint-family plant. Mix well and smoke in a pipe or roll in paper. A relaxing smoke that is good for the lungs.
 
Bergamot (Monarda varieties): rich in oregano oil, an powerful lung antiseptic

Catnip (Nepeta cataria): roll your own catnip cigarettes to relieve menstrual cramps fast fast fast.

Horehound (Marrubium vulgare): bitter taste, powerful effect on the lungs.

Hyssop (Hyssopus off.): powerful penetrating healer of lung tissues.

Lemon balm (Melissa off.): liberally added to mixes to help fight viral infections.

Motherwort (Leonurus cardiaca): alters perception when smoked.

Oregano, rosemary, thyme, and sage: antioxidant, anti-infection; aromatic tastes; deep healing

Oswego tea (Monarda didyma): minty taste; harvest late summer when in flower.

Pennyroyal (Hedeoma pulegioides): just a pinch lifts the mood and brings a smile.

Peppermint (Mentha piperata): nice taste; nice to the lungs.

Rosemary (Rosmarinus off.) : as smoke or smudge, improves memory, wards off dementia, counters asthma, and pleases the fairies.

 
Medicine people and post-menopausal women are the ones most likely to smoke. Fire activates the spirit of the plants and this may prove overpowering for young or untrained people. Each Medicine person makes their own smoking mix, imbued with the spirits of the plants that are their allies.
 
Herbal Smoking Mix Number Two: Combine one handful each finely chopped uva ursi leaves, cornsilk, and mullein, plus one to two tablespoons of powdered or ground thyme or sage. This is a fair substitute for those wanting to smoke less tobacco; it is more bracing than relaxing.
 
Fire use sets humans apart. We alone have fire, the dangerous friend, as an ally. Burning herbs is a shamanic action. Inhaling the smoke from burning herbs confers both physical and spiritual healing. The smoke directly affects the lung tissues, opening them and relieving spasms. And smoke carries prayers.
 
Herbal Smoking Mix Number Three: Combine one handful each finely cut coltsfoot, mullein, motherwort, nettle, hops, and cronewort. Smoke at the dark and the full of the moon to increase your visionary powers.
 
Some plants have spirits so strong that smoking them alters our perceptions. Happy High Herbs, A Guide to Natural Highs and Addiction Solutions, by Roy Thorpe of Australia, includes these common psychoactive smoking herbs: scotch bloom flowers, California poppy, Mexican poppy, damiana, hops, wild lettuce, lion’s tail, madagascar periwinkle, motherwort, mugwort, nettle!!, passionflower, and Salvia divinorum. Some of these plants are poisonous internally.
 
Please treat all plants, especially these, with respect and care when you make use of them.

Next week â€" more adventures with herbal smoking mixes.
 
Green blessings,

Herbal Adventures - Peppermint by Susun Weed
The streets are narrow; literally the width of a donkey, fully loaded of course, plus room for merchants to set out their wares in front of their shops. The melee of people, animals, insects, smells, voices, noises, staggers me. At this time, I lived in Manhattan, one of the most populous cities in North America, and I rode the subway at rush hourâ€"but I have never been in such a crush of people moving about intent on their own and every one else's business.
