Date: Tuesday, December 21, 2010, 8:42 PM
I had an extraordinary experience with it because more than just the solstice, eclipse, and the full moon lined up; it was also the peak of my moon time. I used the circumstances to advantage to burn my lights for Dee, even traced the sigils on the god and goddess candles, on the petitioner's candle and on the beneficiary's candle, and on the 'air' candle which goes in my special bell candle holder in blood. They burned until there was nothing left of them and then it was time to go outside and see the eclipse. The flames were steady, even the ones dedicated to Dee which usually flicker uncertainly and have to be coaxed.
According to the NASA site, the optimum time for viewing was between 241 and 303 EST. We saw it a few minutes before the eclipse completed and then stayed out long enough to watch it start to recede. We live in the middle of nowhere with no light pollution, not even from other farms, to block the night skies and they were clear as a bell. It looked as though someone had strung up a set of faint blue-white lights in the pine branches. We caught a few meteors too from the Ursids because of the obstruction of the full moon.
This evening, coming home from a rummage through the book store, a round fat moon followed us over the bridge as we crossed the various estuaries of the St. Johns. Gorgeous! I don't know how on earth anyone could see such a thing and remain cynical or unhappy or anything other than fulfilled.

12 Winter Depression Busters
Posted by: "Lady Nightshayde" LadyNightshayde9@aol.com nightshayde99
Wed Dec 22, 2010 9:39 am (PST)
The First Day of Winter: 12 Winter Depression Busters
Tuesday December 21, 2010
Categories: Depression
We've officially entered the hard months, the "dark ages" as the midshipmen at the Naval Academy say: the time of the year when the sun disappears and the pale complexions of your friends remind you that you had better take your vitamins or else you'll have a cold to go with your pasty look.
I dread winter each year because many of my depression busters require sunny skies and temperatures in the 70s. What does a girl who kayaks and bikes for sanity do in the winter? Lots of things. Here are a few of them:
1. Watch the sugar.
I think our body gets the cue just before Thanksgiving that it will be hibernating for a few months, so it needs to ingest everything edible in sight. And I'm convinced the snow somehow communicates to the human brain the need to consume every kind of chocolate available in the house. We are mammals, yes, so do we think we need an extra layer of fat in the winter to keep us warm? I'm starting to think so.
Depressives and addicts need to be especially careful with sweets because the addiction to sugar and white-flour products is very real and physiological, affecting the same biochemical systems in your body as other drugs like heroin. According to Kathleen DesMaisons, author of "Potatoes Not Prozac": Your relationship to sweet things is operating on a cellular level. It is more powerful than you have realized....What you eat can have a huge effect on how you feel."
2. Stock up on Omega-3's.
During the winter I'm religious about stocking in my medicine cabinet a Noah's Ark supply of Omega-3 capsules because leading physicians at Harvard Medical School confirmed the positive effects of this natural, anti-inflammatory molecule on emotional health. I treat my brain like royalty--hoping that it will be kind to me in return--so I fork over about $30 a month for the Mac Daddy of the Omega-3s, capsules that contain 70 percent EPA (Eicosapentaenoic acid). One 500mg softgel capsule meets the doctor-formulated 7:1 EPA to DHA ratio, needed to elevate and stabilize mood.
3. Give back.
Ghandi once wrote that "the best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others." Positive psychologists like University of Pennsylvania's Martin Seligman and Dan Baker, Ph.D., director of the Life Enhancement Program at Canyon Ranch, believe that a sense of purpose--committing oneself to a noble mission--and acts of altruism are strong antidotes to depression.
The winter months are a good time to do this because the need is greater, the holiday spirit ideally lasts until February, and you don't have the excuse of attending family picnics, unless you live in California or Florida.
4. Join the gym.
Don't let the cold weather be an excuse not to sweat. We have centers today called "gyms" where people exercise inside! Granted, it's not the same--watching the news or listening to the soundtrack from "Rocky" as you run in place as opposed to jogging along wooded paths with a view of the bay. But you accomplish the goal: a heart rate over 140 beats a minute.
The gym is also a kind of support group for me. These women, I'm guessing, are going after the endorphin buzz just like me because alcohol and recreational drugs don't do the trick anymore. And, like moi, I suspect that they also have great difficulty meditating. Every time they close their eyes, they have visions of screaming kids, Chuck E. Cheese hell, and the crisis of no thank-you gifts for teachers.
5. Use a light lamp.
Bright-light therapy--involving sitting in front of a fluorescent light box that delivers an intensity of 10,000 lux--can be as effect as antidepressant medication for mild and moderate depression and can yield substantial relief for Seasonal Affective Disorder.
I usually turn on my mammoth HappyLite in November, just after my least favorite day of the year: when Daylight Saving Time ends and we "fall back" an hour, which means that I have about an hour of sunlight to enjoy after I pick up the kids from school.
6. Wear bright colors.
I have no research supporting this theory, but I'm quite convinced there is a link between feeling optimistic and sporting bright colors. It's in line with "faking it 'til you make it," desperate attempts to trick your brain into thinking that it's sunny and beautiful outside--time to celebrate Spring!--even though it's a blizzard with sleet causing some major traffic jams.
Personally, I tend to wear black everyday in the winter. It's supposed to make you look thinner. But the result is that I appear as if and feel like I'm going to a funeral every afternoon between the months of November and March. This isn't good. Not for a person hardwired to stress and worry and get depressed when it's cold. So I make a conscious effort to wear bright green, purple, blue, and pink, and sometimes--if I'm in a rush--all of them together!
7. Force yourself outside.
I realize that the last thing you want to do when it's 20 degrees outside and the roads are slushy is to head outside for a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood. It's much more fun to cuddle up with a good novel or make chocolate chip cookies and enjoy them with a hot cup of Jo.
On many winter days--especially in late January and early February when my brain is done with the darkness--I have to literally force myself outside, however brief. Because even on cloudy and overcast days, your mood can benefit from exposure to sunlight. Midday light, especially, provides Vitamin D to help boost your limbic system, the emotional center of the brain. And there is something so healing about connecting with nature, even if it's covered in snow.
8. Hang out with friends.
This seems like an obvious depression buster. Of course you get together with your buddies when your mood starts to go south. But that's exactly when many of us tend to isolate. I believe that it takes a village to keep a person sane and happy. That's why we need so many support groups today. People need to be validated and encouraged and inspired by persons on the same journey.
And with all the technology today, folks don't even have to throw on their slippers to get to a support group. Online communities provide a village of friendship right at your computer. Every day I read comments like this one from Beyond Blue member Margaret: "Membership in this club to which we all unwillingly belong isn't something I would wish on anyone; nonetheless, reading how others have survived specific circumstances has given me hope where I'd lost sight of it and inspired me to keep on keepin' on even when my feet feel as if they're encased in buckets of cement and will pull me under the stagnant water in the bottom of the pit."
9. Head south.
Granted, this solution isn't free, especially if you live in Maine. But you need not travel like the Kennedys to transplant your body and mind to a sunny spot for a few days. I try to schedule our yearly vacation the last week of January or the first week of February so that it breaks up the winter and so that I have something to look forward to in those depressing weeks following the holidays.
10. Take up a project.
There's no time like winter to start a home project, like de-cluttering the house or purging all the old clothes in your kids' closets. When a friend of mine was going through a tough time, she painted her entire house--every room downstairs with two different colors. And it looked professional! Not only did it help distract her from her problems, but it provided her with a sense of accomplishment that she desperately needed those months, something to feel good about as she saw other things crumble around her. Projects like organizing bookshelves, shredding old tax returns, and cleaning out the garage are perfect activities for the dreary months of the year. And hey, most of them are free!
11. Challenge yourself.
My mood can often be lifted by meeting a new challenge--an activity that is formidable enough to keep my attention, but easy enough to do when my brain is muddied. Learning how to record and edit video blogs, for this girl who hates technology, turned out to be great fun. Friends of mine get the same boost by joining Jenny Craig and losing the 25 pounds of baby fat, or exploring a new hobby--like scrapbooking. I try to stretch myself in a small way every winter--whether it be taking a writing class, researching the genetics of mood disorders, or trying to build myself a website. It keeps my brain from freezing, like the rest of my body.
12. Light a candle.
If I counted up all the minutes I've spent staring into a flame, I wonder how many years of my life that would be. Certainly more than the hours I've spent brushing my teeth or combing my hair. It would probably even surpass the combination of bath and shower time.
For some reason I assume God hears me better if I stick my face in a hot glowing body of flame. The scarlet blaze generates a feeling of hope, of fierce tenacity, that whispers: "you're not off the hook yet...hang in there."

Elder's Meditation of the Day
Posted by: "Lady Nightshayde" LadyNightshayde9@aol.com nightshayde99
Wed Dec 22, 2010 10:34 am (PST)
Elder's Meditation of the Day
"From Wakan Tanka, the Great Spirit, there came a great unifying life force that flowed in and through all things: the flowers of the plains, blowing winds, rocks, trees, birds, animals, and was the same force that had been breathed into the first man. Thus all things were kindred, and were brought together by the same Great Mystery."
-- Chief Luther Standing Bear, SIOUX
The Great Spirit has six things that make up this life force. They are life, love, intelligence, soul, principle, and truth. These are the reasons the life cycle continues. None of this can be altered by man, but we can have access to these powers any time we wish. Just think about it - anytime I have a need I can access one or more of these powers."
Oh Great Mystery, let me know how to use these powers. Today, let me love life, let me know truth, let me live by principle, and let me follow Your intelligence.

My Cruise
Posted by: "Lady Nightshayde" LadyNightshayde9@aol.com nightshayde99
Wed Dec 22, 2010 10:43 am (PST)
My cruise last weekend was definitely one to remember. We left on Thursday afternoon and arrived in Freeport, Bahamas on Friday morning. We went on an excursion on a glass bottom boat which was great. There were lots of sharks as well as many other kinds of fish. I shopped and bought some souvenirs.
Friday night we set sail for Nassau. I went to a Las Vegas type show on the ship, and it was fun. I wanted to get up and dance with the showgirls. We arrived in Nassau on Saturday morning. It was a cloudy and windy day, but we went to Atlantis, a resort, and spent some time on the beach. The beaches are so different from any I have seen. The water is a beautiful blue and the sand was white, like sugar. I brought some of it back home with me. Saturday night when we left Nassau for the return trip home. The weather turned stormy. A front was headed at us, and the waves were breaking over some of the balconies. The ship rocked back and forth so hard that things were sliding off the tables. Did I mention that the food was outstanding? I have never eaten so much in a 5-day period as I did on the cruise. There was a dessert called Melting Chocolate Cake that I wish I could duplicate.
We arrived in Jacksonville about 6:00 AM on Monday morning. It was verrry cold. I enjoyed the trip, but was glad to be home.
The ship was the Carnival Fascination, and I plan on booking another cruise with them next year.

Lady N,
Here's a recipe.
How to Make Melting Chocolate Cake Dessert
Things You'll Need:
• 8 oz. semi-sweet chocolate
• 1 cup butter (2 sticks)
• 7 eggs
• 6 tbsp. sugar
• 1/2 cup flour
• Vanilla ice cream
• Ramekins or baking cups
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the chocolate with the butter stirring constantly so it doesn't burn.
3. In a separate bowl, mix four eggs with the sugar. Whisk until smooth. Add the flour and keep whisking until smooth. Add the remaining three eggs and whisk again until smooth.
4. Add egg mixture to the chocolate mixture and stir until well blended. Pour into individual baking cups or ramekins that have been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
5. Bake 15 to 20 minutes until just done. The inside will be melting, the outside will be cake-like.
6. You can either remove the cakes from the baking cups or ramekins or serve them in the baking vessels - it's a matter of choice. Serve with a side of vanilla ice cream.
This is especially great when dusted with powdered sugar and served with fresh raspberries or strawberries.

A wealth of Yule info

I just recieved this from a frind of mine and it has a lot of great info on this wonderful tradition. Its great for those of us who are still learning and haven't seen it before. Blessed be,
Lady Diamond Light
Yule Lore (December 21st)
Yule, (pronounced EWE-elle) is when the dark half of the year relinquishes to the light half. Starting the next morning at sunrise, the sun climbs just a little higher and stays a little longer in the sky each day. Known as Solstice Night, or the longest night of the year, much celebration was to be had as the ancestors awaited the rebirth of the Oak King, the Sun King, the Giver of Life that warmed the frozen Earth and made her to bear forth from seeds protected through the fall and winter in her womb. Bonfires were lit in the fields, and crops and trees were "wassailed" with toasts of spiced cider.
Children were escorted from house to house with gifts of clove spiked apples and oranges which were laid in baskets of evergreen boughs and wheat stalks dusted with flour. The apples and oranges represented the sun, the boughs were symbolic of immortality, the wheat stalks portrayed the harvest, and the flour was accomplishment of triumph, light, and life. Holly, mistletoe, and ivy not only decorated the outside, but also the inside of homes. It was to extend invitation to Nature Sprites to come and join the celebration. A sprig of Holly was kept near the door all year long as a constant invitation for good fortune to pay visit to the residents.
The ceremonial Yule log was the highlight of the festival. In accordance to tradition, the log must either have been harvested from the householder's land, or given as a gift... it must never have been bought. Once dragged into the house and placed in the fireplace it was decorated in seasonal greenery, doused with cider or ale, and dusted with flour before set ablaze be a piece of last years log, (held onto for just this purpose). The log would burn throughout the night, then smolder for 12 days after before being ceremonially put out. Ash is the traditional wood of the Yule log. It is the sacred world tree of the Teutons, known as Yggdrasil. An herb of the Sun, Ash brings light into the hearth at the Solstice.
A different type of Yule log, and perhaps one more suitable for modern practitioners would be the type that is used as a base to hold three candles. Find a smaller branch of oak or pine, and flatten one side so it sets upright. Drill three holes in the top side to hold red, green, and white (season), green, gold, and black (the Sun God), or white, red, and black (the Great Goddess). Continue to decorate with greenery, red and gold bows, rosebuds, cloves, and dust with flour.
Deities of Yule are all Newborn Gods, Sun Gods, Mother Goddesses, and Triple Goddesses. The best known would be the Dagda, and Brighid, the daughter of the Dagda. Brighid taught the smiths the arts of fire tending and the secrets of metal work. Brighid's flame, like the flame of the new light, pierces the darkness of the spirit and mind, while the Dagda's cauldron assures that Nature will always provide for all the children.
