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

A Grieving Ritual
November 9
Tuesday
Color of the day: Maroon
Incense of the day: Bayberry
None of us are exempt from sorrow and grief; and mourning takes its
own time and its own path. For a spell to honor our sorrowful heart,
gather a black candle and a silver candle, special items to commemorate
who or what you are grieving, patchouli incense, a pen, fallen leaves
(dry), and a fireproof bowl. At your altar, honor the directions and
call in the guides and deities that sustain you. Light the black candle
in honor of your grief and light the silver candle in honor of love and
hope. Light the incense and let its grounding power envelop you. Write
messages and blessings on the leaves in honor of your grief. Present the leaves to the directions and the deities and the lit candles; and then
burn them one at a time. Watch the smoke waft upward as prayers for
blessings and comfort.

Elder's Meditation of the Day November 9

Elder's Meditation of the Day November 9
"Language is a vehicle for carrying spirit,
life, and family. Language, religion, and land
base are three things that characterize culture."
--Edmund Ladd, ZUNI PUEBLO
The Elders say we need to know the answers to
three questions in order for us to be connected;
the Earth, the Sky, the East, the
West, the South, and the North. The three questions
are: 1. Why are we? 2. Who are we?
3. Where are we going? If we know the language,
if we have our spirituality, and if we can
pray on sacred spots, then we are able to seek
the answer to the questions. We must protect
the language, religion, and land so our
future generations can stay connected.
Great Spirit,
help us
maintain our
language,
spirit, family,
religion and
our Mother
Earth.

We like to explain that only a part of the Consciousness that is
really who-you-are is focused into the physical personality that you
believe is you, so that you can then begin to consciously consider
the larger part of you, who continues to remain Non-Physically
focused.Once you remember that you are a physical extension of
Source Energy, you can then begin to consider, and consciously tend to,
your alignment with your larger, Eternal, Non-Physical
counterpart.As you made the decision to focus into this physical
time-space reality, you understood it to be a spectacular arena of
balance and variety and perfect contrast.You understood that
there is no competition for resources, but only opportunities to give
birth to your own ideas—and you understood that once an idea has
been given birth, the means with which to fulfill it will
follow.And now here you are, an extension of Source
Energy—focused in the environment of perfect contrast and balance,
just as you have intended—exploring, deciding, preferring,
creating, and becoming.

Daily Buddhist Wisdom: Awaken Yourself
Posted by: "Ash" mhc4sure@yahoo.com mhc4sure
Tue Nov 9, 2010 4:13 am (PST)
All
states that can be returned to external causes are obviously not you,
but that which cannot be returned to anywhere, if it is not you, what is
it? Therefore, you should know that your mind is fundamentally
wonderful, bright, and pure and that because of your involvement with
the things of the world you have covered it up and lost it. In this way
you are caught on the endless wheel of becoming this or that, sinking
and floating in that sea of endless becoming. Awaken yourself now to
your own bright mind.

A Brief History of Crystals
Posted by: "Ash" mhc4sure@yahoo.com mhc4sure
Tue Nov 9, 2010 4:50 am (PST)
Source: Jodi
A Brief History of Crystals
The use of crystals for healing on many levels began long before what is
called the New Age. When you hold a crystal or meditate with them,
place them in special areas of your home, or wear crystal jewelry, you
continue practices which are as old as humankind.
The history below is by no means complete; it is intended to suggest
that the human connection to crystals is one which transcends time and
cultures. Prehistoric Use of Crystals
Archaeologists have discovered in graves and barrows excavated in
Europe, the Middle East, Russia, and Africa beads, carvings, and jewelry
of amber, jet, turquoise, lapis, garnet, carnelian, quartz, and other
stones. It is believed that the carvings were probably amulets and
talismans, used for protection and as reminders of religious rites.
Some of the discovered stones were carved in the shape of various
animals, and were probably symbols of particular totems. Others were
necklaces and other items of adornment.
The value given to crystals in these various cultures is indicated by
their presence in the graves; they were intended to go with the departed
soul to help them in the next life.
A striking example of prehistoric reverence for crystals is the solar
temple, Newgrange. This ancient passage grave in the Boyne Valley of
Ireland, which is older than the pyramids, was built so that the sun
would stream through the 70-foot-long entrance tunnel on the Winter
Solstice. Its roof was originally covered with white quartz, to
symbolize the White Goddess. Crystal Skulls
One of the most remarkable archaeological discoveries has been that of
anatomically perfect crystal skulls. According to the many sources I've
consulted on them they defy modern dating techniques; estimates are that
they are at least 20,000 years old.
One of the best-known of these is the Mitchell-Hedges skull. Its origins
are disputed. Some believe that it was discovered by Anna
Mitchell-Hedges, the daughter of archaeologist F.A. Mitchell-Hedges, in
Guatemala; others claim that the archaeologist bought it in London.
Although the specific purpose for the carving and use of the crystal is
unknown, those who have spent time with it have reported a variety of
mystical experiences.
I had the privilege of spending some time with this skull in 1988.
Simply to view its perfection (it is so lovingly carved that its surface
is perfectly smooth) and the rainbows which flash from its interiors
would have been gift enough; being able to touch it was an experience so
powerful that I am sorry to say I can't describe it, except to say that
there is enormous spiritual energy in this skull. Ancient Egypt
Crystal was widely used in this civilization. A hieroglyphic papyrus
from the year 2000 B.C. documents a medical cure using a crystal, and
several from the year 1500 B.C. have additional prescriptions.
Lapis was considered to be a royal stone. It was often pulverized and
made into a poultice to be rubbed into the crown of the head. It was
believed that as it dried it drew out all spiritual impurities.
The pharaohs often had their headdresses lined with malachite in the
belief that it helped them to rule wisely. In powder form this stone was
used for poor eyesight and inner vision.
Many other stones were found in the tombs, including carnelian,
turquoise, and tiger's eye. These were often shaped into amulets,
shields, and into the shapes of hearts, the Eye of Horus, and scarabs.
Native American
The original settlers of North, Central, and South America used crystals
widely for spiritual, ceremonial, and healing purposes, and served
practical purposes, as well. The ancient Mexicans, for example, made
mirrors out of pyrite.
Obsidian served both practical and ritual purposes. The Mayans used it
for ceremonial knives, and and other tribes believed that it served to
sharpen both outer and inner vision.
Turquoise was believed to be a stone which bridged heaven and earth (a
belief also held in Tibet). In one legend it is stated that if one went
to the end of the rainbow and dug in the earth he would find a
turquoise.
Mayan Indians used quartz crystals for both the diagnosis and treatment
of disease. Some Mexican Indian tribes believed that the souls of those
who led good lives would go into crystals. China and Japan
Quartz was traditionally revered in the Far East, especially in carved
form. Quartz crystal balls were considered to represent the heart or
essence of the dragon. Dragons were thought to have great power, and a
deeper meaning for "dragon" is that of a very wise and evolved
individual.
The stone most associated with China is jade. It was termed the
concentrated essence of love. Many kinds of amulets are carved from this
stone, including those for friendship and for romantic love. A jade
butterfly was a symbol of successful love. India
The culture of ancient India is a rich source of information about
crystals. The system of chakras (energy centers), which helps us to
place crystals on the body for healing and meditation originated there.
Astrological documents written as early as 400 B.C. contain detailed
observations about the power of various stones to counteract the
negative effects of planetary positions.
Stones were regarded as having great spiritual and emotional powers.
Moonstone, for instance, was a sacred stone, and believed to arouse
love. Onyx, in contrast, was believed to help release the ties of old
loves. The ruby was a highly valued gemstone, and was known as the "king
of precious stones."
The connection between humans and crystals is especially vivid in the
following verses from the Vedas (Hindu sacred texts): There is an
endless net of threads Throughout the universe. The horizontal threads
are in space. The vertical threads are in time. At every crossing of the
threads, There is an individual, And every individual Is a crystal
bead. The great light of absolute being Illuminates and penetrates Every
crystal bead, and also, Every crystal bead reflects Not only the light
From every other crystal in the net, But also every reflection Of every
reflection Throughout the universe.

The Lion
Courage Confidence
Command
Take a deep breath and invite the spirit of
the lion to fill you. Click here to Listen to the Lion's Song
When you walk, walk
like the lion. Be proud to be who you are, exactly as you
are. Hold your head high. Look each person in the eye and silently say to
yourself: I am the lion.
The
lion will fill you with courage, the courage to be who you are and show it to
the world. He will teach you how to roar out with your power, displaying your
talents and announcing your presence. He will teach you to have the courage to
be yourself, always and in all ways and to know the deep truth, that you are
exactly as you should be. After all, you are the lion.
The lion is power,
but power contained. He will teach you the strength of quiet command.
He will teach you to hold yourself with such presence that merely being around
you will fill others with respect and awe.
Know and be the quiet strength
of complete confidence. Speak calmly and with authority. Act from a
place of personal truth and wisdom, a wisdom that comes from the quiet times you
spend just being and feeling your deep connection with all that is.
Walk with grace and
strength. Hold your head high. And
once in a while, give out a resounding, magnificent roar. After all, you are
the lion.

Quado's Garden: It is All Inside You

It is
All Inside You
Everything
in your life will become easier when you make your choices from your center of
truth and rightness rather than from your emotions. And by emotions, I mean
excitement and anticipation as well as fear and anger. All emotions are
responses to expectations and your heart of rightness has no expectations.
In
your center of truth and integrity, there is a deep knowingness, a connection to
a greater purpose, a connection to more than you alone. A connection to all
that is.
You know everything you
need to know. It is all inside you. All you need to do is learn to go beneath
emotion and access truth. Learn to do this, and you will open up a clear path
before you. You will not know what the future holds, but it will unfold before
you, step by step, in clarity and wonder.

Re: Who are the Indigo Children?

From what I've read they are kids that were born from 1992 and on I think. They
are highly sensitive people and are here to carry out a divine mission for the
world to be a better place. They are often unfortunately miss-diagnosed with
ADD, autism and other social or "mental" diseases because of their heightened
sensitivity and new ways of communicating.
I've read a lot of Doreen Virtue books and she often talks about them

They are children with supernatural abilities, like a 6th sense if you will. I myself am a prime example of an Indigo child. The way you identify them [or the way I identify others] are through their aura. Indigos often let off a type of indigo colored aura, where as most auras are a yellow color [depending on situations]. It is even said that Native Americans tribes had the sorts of Indigo Children which they called "Indigos". If you are good with reading auras you will easily be able to tell if they are 'autistic' and as well, I do believe they are real. I have always had a type of supernatural ability, it wasn't until I met another Indigo to realize, I wasn't 'weird' but I had something most people don't have. We became friends quite quickly and she told me more about the Indigo Children.
Many of the characteristics of a Indigo are empathetic, curious, very willed, independent, and 'strange'.
I hope that this will help you understand and learn more about it!

IS PRONOIA JUST FOR RICH, COMFORTABLE PEOPLE? Part 6
Excerpted from *PRONOIA IS THE ANTIDOTE FOR PARANOIA*
available at Amazon: http://bit.ly/Pronoia
or Powells: http://bit.ly/PronoiaPowells
The Maasai people of Kenya don't have running water, toilets, or
electricity, and their per capita income is $300 a year. They use cattle
dung as plaster in building their homes because the scent helps repel
lions, which dislike it, from venturing too close.
And yet they are as happy with their lives as Forbes' magazine's "400
richest Americans" are with theirs -- even though the latter may live in
10,000-square-foot palaces with stained glass windows, French patio
doors, limestone kitchen counter tops, spas, wine cellars, and Olympic-
sized swimming pools.
This assertion comes from "Beyond Money: Toward an Economy of Well-
Being," a report done by psychologists Ed Diener and Martin E. P.
Seligman. On a scale of 1 to 7, where 1 is "extremely dissatisfied," 4 is
"neutral," and 7 means "extremely satisfied," the Maasai, the Inuit of
northern Greenland, and the wealthiest Americans all scored 5.8.
Paupers scratching out a livelihood in the slums of Calcutta registered a
score of 4.6, while international college students and the Amish of Illinois
weighed in at 4.9. Citing 150 other studies in their work, Diener and
Seligman conclude that economic factors are not necessarily correlated
with happiness levels, especially in the developed world.
+
Meanwhile, according to the World Values Survey, published in *New
Scientist* magazine, Nigerians are the happiest people on the planet,
although 60 percent of them live below the poverty line. The next four
populations at the top of the list are Mexicans, Venezuelans, Salvadorans,
and Puerto Ricans. On the scale of the planet's wealthiest places, they
rank 63rd, 64th, 101st, and 163rd, respectively.
To be clear, Ed Diener notes in another report that on average, rich
people are happier than poor people. He also says that cultural context is
an important consideration in analyzing the relationship between financial
well-being and happiness.
A homeless man in California may have more money than a Maasai cattle-
herder but be less sanguine about his fate. That's because basic
necessities cost more for him and he is surrounded by people who are far
better off than he is.
But Diener also declares that happiness is harder to attain for those who
believe money is the most important factor in feeling good.
Echoing him, the World Values Survey goes so far as to say that "the
desire for material goods is actually a 'happiness suppressant,'" mirroring
the Buddhist assertion that the craving for earthly riches can be the
source of intense suffering.
+
In calling attention to some of the surprisingly good news about the
developing world, I of course don't mean to imply that paradise is at hand.
My recognition of the underreported progress and miracles is not
equivalent to an endorsement of evil-doers.
And I trust that after having read the six-part series that's completed
here this week you won't go numb to the suffering of others and stop
agitating on their behalf.
Just the opposite: I hope that you will be energized by the signs of
creeping benevolence and waxing intelligence.
As you absorb the evidence that an aggressive strain of compassion is
loose in the world, maybe you will conclude that activism actually works,
and you'll be motivated to give yourself with confidence to the specific
role you can play in manifesting the ultimate goal: to create a heaven on
earth in which everyone alive is a healthy, free, self-actualized, spiritually
enlightened millionaire dedicated to living sustainably.

Week beginning November 11

Grammar key: Asterisks equal *italics*
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): "I cannot seem to feel alive unless I am
alert," wrote author Charles Bowden, "and I cannot feel alert unless I push
past the point where I have control." Yikes! That's a pretty extreme
approach. But I suggest that you consider trying it out in the coming
week. If you hope to seize even one of the multiple opportunities that
are swirling in your vicinity, you will need both supreme focus and a
loosey-goosey willingness to respond to novelty. So don't tense up and
blank out and try to wrestle the mysterious flows into submission. Use
your sixth sense to find the groove, and relax into it.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): "Democracy is the worst form of
government except for all those others that have been tried," said
Winston Churchill. He was defending his favorite political system,
asserting that its imperfections are superior to the flaws of monarchy,
plutocracy, anarchy, theocracy, and the rest. I invite you to use a similar
gauge as you evaluate the belief system that's at the center of your life.
Does it sometimes lead you astray, cause you to see things that aren't
really there, and fill you with confusion -- but in ways that are more life-
enhancing than any other belief system you know of? Or is your belief
system actually kind of toxic? Should you consider replacing it with
another set of organizing principles? If it's the latter, now would be a
good time to begin making a change.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Connie Post, my beloved former editor at
the Dayton Daily News, sent me a haiku-like poem that I'd like you to
ponder: "November trees / which are living? / which are dead?" I'm
hoping this will put you in the mood to mull over an even bigger question,
namely: What parts of your own life are withering and what parts are
thriving? In my astrological opinion, it's very important that you know the
difference, and act accordingly.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Numerologists say the number 10 signifies
completion, wholeness, totality. It could rightly serve as your lucky
number in the coming weeks -- a symbol of your power to draw long-term
processes to a climax on your own terms. But you might also want to
consider using 11 as your emblem of good mojo. That number denotes
the drive to surpass the success you've earned before -- to transcend
easy triumphs and conventional wisdom so as to reach for a more
challenging conquest. Either way, Aquarius, I think you'll be flying high for
the foreseeable future, so there's no need to worry about which way you
should go. If you do choose 11, the risks will be somewhat greater and
the rewards more interesting.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): In *Moby Dick,* Herman Melville suggested
that ideally a person should be a "patriot to heaven." Poet Gary Snyder
wrote, "I pledge allegiance to the soil / one ecosystem / in diversity /
under the sun / with joyful interpenetration for all." Seminal
environmentalist Edward Abbey said, "My loyalties will not be bound by
national borders . . . or limited in the spiritual dimension by one language
or culture. I pledge my allegiance to the damned human race, and my
everlasting love to the green hills of Earth, and my intimations of glory to
the singing stars, to the very end of space and time." I recommend you
experiment with this perspective in the coming weeks, Pisces. You don't
have to tone down your love for your tribe or country. Just see if you can
expand your sense of belonging . . . extend the borders of your comfort
zone . . . and feel at home everywhere you go.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Where I live, 35 percent of all high school
students confess (or brag) that they have engaged in binge drinking,
which is defined as imbibing five or more alcoholic drinks in a two-hour
period. According to my reading of the omens, your inner teenager may
soon be longing to flirt with that kind of intense and total release. Can I
talk him or her out of it? As much as I sympathize with the younger you's
need to escape the numbing effects of the daily grind, I'm asking the
adult you to step in and assert your authority. Try to find a more
constructive approach to liberation.

MY OTHER HOROSCOPES
Factual information and reasonable thinking alone are not sufficient to
guide you through life's labyrinthine tests. You need and deserve regular
deliveries of uncanny revelation.
One of your inalienable rights as a human being should therefore be to
receive mysteriously useful omens on a regular basis. In this spirit, I offer
you the free weekly horoscopes you read in this newsletter.
If you ever want more, and think it's worth paying for, try my daily text
message 'scopes or my expanded audio 'scopes.

+++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++ +++++++++ +
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Why did feathered dinosaurs evolve wings?
Paleontologists in Britain have a new theory: It added to their sexual
allure. The head researcher at the University of Manchester speculated
that "maybe they ran around with their arms outstretched to show off
how pretty their feathers were." Eventually those forearms became wings
that came in handy for flying. In other words, the power of flight did not
originate from the urge to fly but rather from the urge to be attractive.
Oddly enough, Taurus, this approach to understanding evolution would be
useful for you to meditate on in the coming weeks. According to my
reading of the astrological omens, you could develop some interesting
new capacities as you work to enhance your appeal to people who matter.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): On the subject of being divided, novelist Iris
Murdoch wrote the following: "He led a double life. Did that make him a
liar? He did not feel a liar. He was a man of two truths." Whether you
deserve the generosity of that interpretation still remains to be seen,
Gemini. It is possible that your version of doubleness will be rooted in
deceit or delusion rather than sincere and honest duality. Of course I'm
rooting for the latter. Please do all you can to ensure that you're being
authentic, not manipulative.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): My friend Ariel's six-year-old daughter Juno
doesn't understand why anyone would build streets that run in a straight
line. Isn't it more fun if the highways and byways are crooked and curvy?
Shouldn't people want to get to where they're going by veering this way
and that, relishing the playful twists and turns? That's where the best
action is, says Juno, and I agree: in the tweak, in the twirl, in the winding
way -- not in the beeline route that leaves no room for improvisation.
That's especially true for you right now, my fellow Cancerian.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Would you be delighted if I arranged to get an
offshore oil-drilling rig named after you? Probably not. Would you
celebrate if you won a prestigious all-expenses-paid vacation to the
hottest war zones in Afghanistan? I doubt it. So don't accept dubious
honors and gifts like those, Leo. Be clear that you're not interested in ego
strokes that are irrelevant to your long-term dreams. If you hope to get
the prize you're aiming for, you will have to say a definitive no to
supposedly good things that you don't really want.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): The nature of the game is changing. Do you
know which game I'm referring to? I mean the one that everyone's playing
but no one's acknowledging they're playing. The rules of the game had
held steady for quite some time, but recently they began to shift. Now
even the game's rewards are in the process of metamorphosing. My
advice? You don't necessarily need to splash a big dose of raw candor all
over the place, but I do recommend that you at least tell yourself the
truth about what's going on.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): My Facebook friend Robert Goldberg has come
up with terms for you Libras that puts a more positive spin on your
reputation as a fence-sitter. He suggests "fence dancer" or "fence
warrior." You don't always deserve to be bestowed with those honorable
titles, of course. Sometimes you really do molder there in your
intermediate position, paralyzed by indecision and unable to do what's in
the best interests of anyone, including yourself. But on other occasions --
like now -- you have the power to use your in-between status dynamically,
coordinating the opposing interests to work as a whole that's greater
than the sum of the parts.

Dear Cher,
Can you believe it's already November? Where on earth has this year gone?! It's getting colder out, dusk happens earlier and earlier, Thanksgiving is right around the corner, and the Yuletime holidays are right behind. Amazing.
I'm very pleased that The Weiser Field Guide to Witches by Judika Illes is now in. My order was messed up so it's a little late. I apologize for that. Christopher Penczak's new book will be in this week, I'm happy to announce. Been very much looking forward to both of these!
Thanks to you we raised another $100 (added to the $300+ already collected) for The Bloomingdale Animal Shelter through the sale of the sample Tarot decks I had here. I still have a few available so please come in and clean me out. It's all for the good of the dogs and cats! $5/deck, buy as many as you wish, cash only. A great way to find a new deck or play with one you've always wanted to check out!
And, this Saturday, from 9-12, two doors down from SoulJourney will be the Butler Marketplace! Homemade (and delicious) ravioli, breads, pies, cakes, organic meats and poultry, pizza, pickles, soups, handmade items (just in time for holiday gifting), and a knife sharpener will all be on hand.

ARRIVING THIS WEEK
Inspired by a vision of Awen depicting a spear, a flowering branch, and a horned serpent emanating from three drops of wisdom, surrounded by three worlds, Christopher Penczak received a teaching to reconcile many disparate parts of modern Witchcraft into a cohesive body of magickal lore for personal evolution and enlightenment. Experimented with and expanded upon, this lore is now shared through his latest book; The Three
Rays of Witchcraft: Power, Love and Wisdom in the Garden of the Gods.

Fw: DailyOM: Staying Open and Fluid
Posted by: "Cher Chirichello" CHIC0411@YAHOO.COM chic0411
Tue Nov 9, 2010 7:48 pm (PST)
DailyOM - Judgment Versus Opinion
Today's DailyOM brought to you by:
November 9, 2010
Staying Open and Fluid
Judgment Versus Opinion
It is important to distinguish between opinion and judgment. Opinions open us up, judgments close us down.
Most of us understand that when we judge someone, or someone judges us, it is a negative emotional experience. As a result, we naturally want to avoid being judgmental, but this gets confusing when we feel we have to suppress thoughts that could actually be offering us guidance. For example, we may meet someone new and suppress a negative feeling about them, thinking that we don't want to fall into the trap of being judgmental. Later, though, it may turn out that paying attention to that thought could have helped us take care of ourselves or someone else.
It is important to learn to distinguish inner guidance, and having an opinion, from judgment, otherwise we run the risk of not listening to our intuition and not allowing ourselves to form opinions. Inner guidance and opinions both help us to interact more intelligently in the world, so we don't want to throw them out in an effort to avoid being judgmental. Our intuition usually makes itself known to us in a flash, and often has a physical component—a flutter in our stomachs, sweaty palms, or a chill. When we use this information to help us navigate a situation, we always benefit. Similarly, having an opinion about a person or an idea allows us to converse about it in a focused way with intention. Listening to our intuition and forming opinions are both positive outcomes of our ability to interpret the information that comes our way.
When we make a judgment, on the other hand, we attempt to have a final say on whether someone or something is inherently good or bad. Judgments close us down instead of opening us up; opinions have a lighter quality and are amenable to change. Once a judgment has been made, there is no more conversation or consideration, whereas opinions invite further debate. Intuition guides us from moment to moment, but, unlike judgment, never makes a final decree. In other words, it is only healthy to be open to the information we receive and to allow ourselves to process that information. As long as we stay open and fluid, we can trust that we have not fallen prey to the trap of judgment.
