Today's Goddess: KALI Festival of Shiva (India)

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

Thu Feb 23, 2012 7:16 pm (PST)



Today's Goddess: KALI
Festival of Shiva (India)
 
Themes: Rebirth; Cycles; Joy; Courage; Hope; Cleansing; Change
Symbols: Flowers; Dance; Iron; Sword; Peacock Feathers; Honey
 
About Kali: Kali, a Hindu Goddess whose name means "time;' is the genetrix of
natural forces that either build or destroy. Even in destruction,
however, she reminds us that good really can come of bad situations. If
you find your hopes and dreams have been crushed, Kali can change the
cycle and produce life out of nothingness. Where there is sorrow, she
dances to bring joy. Where there is fear, she dances in courage.
 
To Do
Today: Hindus gather today at Shiva's temples to honor his celestial
dance; of creation, and Kali dances with them in spirit. Beforehand,
they fast and bathe in holy waters for purification. Doing similarly (in your tub or shower) will purge your body and soul of negative
influences. Add some flower petals or sweet perfume to the bath to
invoke Kali's cleansing power.
 
To invoke
Kali's assistance in bringing new life to stagnant projects or ruined
goals, leave her an offering of honey or flowers, and make this Kali
amulet: Take any black cloth and wrap it around a flower dabbed with a
drop of honey, saying:
 
Kali, turn, dance, and change.
Fate rearrange.
End the devastation and strife;
what was dead return to life.
Carry this with you until the situation changes, then bury it with thankfulness.

Daily Aromatherapy Tip - Fragranced Wood

Daily Aromatherapy Tip - Fragranced Wood
.
While you're vacationing this year pick up unusual pieces of driftwood. Add essential oils and use as
decorations or as drawer fresheners. Any dried wood will soak up essential oils.

Don't worry so much about tomorrow

Don't worry so much about tomorrow;
consider this day a gift from fortune,
this day that you are granted to be young
and dancing while the sap rises 
and death stays away. Now is the time
to discover new purposes for playing fields or
public square: to discover them as places
for lingering whispers when soft night
covers secret meetings, a place for hide-and-seek
and telltale giggles from a girl hiding in a corner
from whose arm or finger the prize is snatched
and who ~ almost ~ resists.
~Horace
 
The sap of spring is beginning to rise in the trees. Growth is like that:
invisible at first, then seeming to arrive in a sudden crescendo of
green. But the secret of growth resists in invisible times such as
these. The world is still gray with winter, but spring has secretly
begun.
 
Within
ourselves, too, we must learn to labor through the silent nights and
winters of our lives, times when nothing seems to come form fruition,
when we encounter only disappointment and disdain. For the inner work we do during these times is what creates the environment for growth on
which others later remark. Keep faith during the wintry times, and
spring will surely follow

What's Happening Today:

Early Rome: FEAT OF REGIFUGIUM (The Flight of Kings) involving changing (& ritual sacrifice?) of annual kings.
 
St Matthias -Also known as the "thirteenth apostle," because he replaced Judas, St Matthias was supposedly beheaded with an axe, thus becoming the patron of woodcutters and carpenters.

It is said that if there is sharp frost on his day it will last several days. Another weather proverb says:
Matthias breaks the ice, if he finds it;
If he does not break it, he makes it all the harder.
 
A good day for honoring any carpenters you know, for making a bookshelf or beginning a wood-working project. Also maybe a good day to go ice-skating. Then again maybe not.

Regifugium -On this day, the Roman king "ran for office," pursued by an eager band of would-be usurpers who, if they caught him, could dethrone and kill him. In later times this ritual was purely ceremonial but it was, as Frazer writes, "a relic of a time when the kingship was an annual office, awarded along with the hand of a princess, to the victorious athlete or gladiator who therefore figured along with his bride as a god and goddess in a sacred marriage to ensure the fertility of the earth by homeopathic magic."
