I'm surprised you didn't use my own argument to beat me over the head. I intimated that the "Poor as bloody church mice Peruvian shamen's" magic might be found wanting against that of the rich and powerful.. but hey hang on.. if the Peruvian shamen are sheltering beneath the crucifix, Hmmmm! The crucifix represents a mob that are pretty rich and powerful too.

Perhaps their goat poo sandwiches for breakfast are not in peril after all.

Bill.

Hey Bill (& CB)

look - I think at the end of the day can bastardise the well worn axion "I may not know Art but I know what I like"...

Maybe something to the effect of

"I may not be able to define Shamanism, but I know what shakes my rattle."

And as true enough for me as anyone else...

Hello Jonathan,

How about:

"I may not know much about THE DARK ARTS ... but I know what I like"?

"Sensitive Permaculture - Cultivating the way of the sacred Earth"

While this particular Taurean doesn't get into the garden quite as
often as he use to, I do get an intellectual indulgence in gardening
through the work of Alanna Moore. <http://www.geomantica.com/>

Alanna is launching a new book, "Sensitive Permaculture - Cultivating
the way of the sacred Earth". This looks to be an interesting
exploration of her unique and practical work with earth energy.
Alanna has more than two decades of experience with hands-on work
using dowsing, permaculture and working with earth energy.

vinum sabbati,
Tim

Monday February 7th from 7.30pm
Book Launch and Presentation:
'Sensitive Permaculture - Cultivating the way of the sacred Earth'
Venue: St. John's Uniting Church Hall, Cnr. Yeo & Barry Sts. Neutral Bay

Alanna Moore's newest book explores the living energies of the land
and how to connect with them.

Drawing on indigenous wisdom from Australia, Ireland and elsewhere it
combines the insights of geomancy and geobiology with eco-smart
permaculture design, offering an exciting new paradigm for
sustainable living.
Brimming with practical tips for eco-spiritual gardeners, it
encourages us to live sustainably in harmonious co-operation and
sacred custodianship of Country.

Alanna's talk will describe the other worldly work she does,
connecting to the nature spirit realms and fostering bountiful,
sustainable food production in the process. You will learn the secret
of "Big Max", the giant cabbage featured in her book, and other tips
for a truly magical gardening experience.

Sensitive Permaculture will be available for purchase at the special
price of $25, and her other books will also be sold on the night.

Hosted by The Southern Cross Academy of Light, Ph: 02 9975 4905
www.aol.org.au

Venue: The weekly SCAL meeting with meditation and guest speaker, is
held at St. John's Uniting Church Hall, Cnr. Yeo & Barry Sts. Neutral
Bay on a Monday Night. Starts at 7.30pm. Enter through Barry
Street. Cost $15 concession; $10. All welcome.
