Thank you for your input. Although I will not put my name on it, they will know where it came from. Right now I am just looking for ideas. Going through with it is a different story.

Subject: Re: [13Witches] Help
I want to clarify my statements first: I am an advocate of pre-emptive magic. I do not hold a strict interpretation of the Rede (ie: if you hurt me and mine, all bets are OFF). However, I see several problems with this idea. The receipt of something frightening from someone potentially unknown is now considered an act of terrorism. Believe me, if the authorities get involved and they want to find you, they will do so. I have, in fact, seen several cases where this has happened recently and real early on I ended up in such trouble myself.
In my case, I had been mixing plant powders and had sent some to my mother for her personal use. The neighbors only saw the jars of powder and me putting the packets in the mail.
I spent the next day talking...and talking...and talking...to the JSO, to state officials, and to federal officials. It wasn't exactly pleasant and I'm still cognizant of the fact that the situation could have ended very differently with me sitting in a cell somewhere and not even able to write a warning such as this.
Instead, I would simply make the poppet or whatever token you wish and incorporate a directional sort of magic which will cause the energies and reminders to be sent to the person in question. Karma will get the message and will carry it.

These people have hurt myself and my family and I want to do something. I do not want to hurt them, but I really would like them to realize what they have done and have it done to them.

I agree with everything Fran said. Something like this, even if you use a disclaimer, may rebound on you. You could try the "swifting" of energy. Change the energy from them into positive energy and let it dissipate into the Universe. Poppet magic is tricky stuff, and not for the faint of heart.

I think that it is ok to charge for services. Especially when it comes
to classes. You need to cover the costs of materials and you should be
compensated for your time.

Daily Feng Shui Tip
Posted by: "Lady Nightshayde" LadyNightshayde9@aol.com nightshayde99
Wed Feb 2, 2011 9:23 am (PST)
Daily Feng Shui Tip by Ellen Whitehurst for Wednesday, February 2
According to ancient Celtic calendars, this second day of February is celebrated as 'Candlemas,' a day dedicated to Brigid, the Irish goddess of fire, inspiration, and ultimate and perfect healing. She represented this time of year when the darkness of winter is starting to give way to seeds of light. This is also when that same burgeoning light shines inspiration into your lives that will take root and grow. Some cultures claim that simply by symbolizing the light today you will bring bright illumination to every breath you take. One way to encourage the slowly waxing sunlight is to light a colored candle. Orange candles are said to be especially auspicious and energy impacting on this day, but any color will do the trick. Additionally, you can anoint this candle with sweet smelling essential oils like lavender, chamomile or musk as you honor this rebirth of the Sun! I've been taught to take a small pin or sharp object and engrave an image of the Sun on the side of the candle while visualizing specific intentions or desires that I would like to see take hold in my own life. As the candle burns, I see myself releasing all the old habits that might be holding me back from achieving my intentions and let them get carried away in the smoke. I then create in my mind my best life blueprint and see the many opportunities that will eventually enable me to manifest all that I desire. Direct your creative intentions and energies in this same way on this same day and know that you are now the channel through which all good things will glow and grow! If you got 'em, light 'em. There's no better day than Candlemas to give that permission, no better day at all!
Love Each Day,
Lady Nightshayde

OT: When Is a Lie an Act of Love?
Posted by: "Lady Nightshayde" LadyNightshayde9@aol.com nightshayde99

When Is a Lie an Act of Love?
Tuesday February 1, 2011
Experiments have found that ordinary people tell about two lies every ten minutes. I don't see how that's possible, as I've been alone the last hour writing this piece (oh dear, am I making it up as I go along?). However, the half-hour before that, I averaged about fifteen per minute.
"What are you eating, Mom?" (I'm shoving chocolate-dipped macaroons into my mouth at an ugly pace)
"Carrots, want some?"
Robert Feldman, a social psychologist at the University of Massachusetts found that liars tend to be more popular than honest people (think politics). Because social skills involve telling people what they want to hear (things that aren't, um, true). The more social grace a person possesses, experiments say, the more willingness and ability he has to deceive.
But some lies are meant as acts of love. Truly. Parents lie to protect their kids from distressing or harmful facts (your uncle crosses his eyes because of a vision impairment...not because he's a sloppy drunk; daddy went on a business trip...not down the road to a hotel because we can't figure out whether or not to divorce).
Ever since I got summoned to jury duty awhile ago, I've been paying attention to lies. More than a few people said to me, "Just say something racist. You'll get out of it."
Um. Yeah. I could do that. But I have something inside me called a Catholic conscience. My conscience makes a dinging sound every time I approach the danger zone: where my depression is hovering like a hawk to feast on all the guilt (and I've given up trying to feel less guilty).
So, these are the lies my Catholic conscience condones:
Perpetuating myths of Santa, the Easter Bunny, and all kinds of fairies (Tooth, Diaper, Binky); fibbing to the kids for reasons of discipline ("Your teeth will rot if you don't brush"), nutrition ("Mommy's eating carrots, not frozen Kit-Kats"), health ("The shots won't hurt"), or recreation ("Barney will make you stupid and unpopular"); deceiving for the purpose of surprise birthday parties or similar ocassions (my aunt Kay can't even do that, God love her); "forgetting" certain details of my mental health record (when dealing with bureaucratic crap like renewing my driver's license or background checks for a part-time job); and telling falsehoods for convenience matters ("Yes, this luggage has been with me the whole time,"...except for when the stranger next to me watched it so I could change my babies' diapers with two hands.)
Of course there are also those forced compliments (the ugly baby dilemma): including reactions to artistic expressions by people who shouldn't hold a paint brush or a microphone but really like to ("I love it!" I say to the novice artist who shows me a portrait of moi that resembles Michael Jackson with Hillary Swank cheek bones; "You sounded great," I say to my sister who sings the national anthem when she gets drunk); feedback on attire ("Yes, the pants are flattering," I say to a friend who has just bought a ridiculously expensive pair of pants which add at least ten pounds to her butt); and weight matters ("No, you don't look heavier," I say to a sister who has gone up at least one size).
Then there are the deceptions that set off my depression alarm: lying for a co-worker who is having an affair (can't do it, get someone else); hiding something from Eric that he deserves to know; ignoring a pretty serious breach of trust in a friendship; denying that a friend's statement hurt my feelings when it did; pretending I'm okay with a neighbor whom I've very pissed off at because he stole my babysitter.
But what do you do when the truth hurts? When "honesty bumps up against other values"? asks Bella DePaulo, a social psychologist at the University of California at Santa Barbara who once conducted a study in which she asked people to recall the worst lie told them, and the worst lie they ever told. Many young people said that the worst lie was told by a parent, but DePaulo found that the parent thought that lying was the right thing to do, that they weren't deceptions but acts of love.

Wed Feb 2, 2011 10:52 am (PST)
"If you envy successful people, you create a negative force field of attraction that repels you from ever doing the things that you need to do to be successful. If you admire successful people, you create a positive force field of attraction that draws you toward becoming more and more like the kinds of people that you want to be like." -- Brian Tracy

Did You Know?
Posted by: "Lady Nightshayde" LadyNightshayde9@aol.com nightshayde99
Wed Feb 2, 2011 11:04 am (PST)
The "Groundhog Day" legend comes from German tradition
when, on Candlemas Day, people would tell a tale of
hedgehogs or badgers serving as a test for the remaining
duration of winter. The first official Groundhog Day was
celebrated on February 2, 1886 in Punxsutawney,
Pennsylvania.

Cool Website of the Day
Posted by: "Lady Nightshayde" LadyNightshayde9@aol.com nightshayde99
Wed Feb 2, 2011 11:22 am (PST)
Mount Washington Observatory
Today is Ground Hog Day. Most of the United States has eyes on Punxsutawney Phil, the famous Pennsylvania ground hog whom we all know is THE weather prognosticator for the next six weeks. However, to the west of Punxsutawney is a really 'cool' site with the current chill factor at minus 16.7 degree Fahrenheit as of the day this feature was prepared (rather warm temperatures here have been recorded as low as 47 degrees below zero). Mount Washington Observatory posts the current conditions on the mountain as well as Observer's Comments, information on the Observatory that includes a Photo Gallery. The Weather Discovery Center has quizzes that the whole family will find informative and also serve to gauge how well everyone understood the material. All in all, this site will give Phil a run for his money!

Imbolc, Dark Moon, and the Healing Circle
Posted by: "Lady Nightshayde" LadyNightshayde9@aol.com nightshayde99
Wed Feb 2, 2011 3:29 pm (PST)
Greetings, lots of things going on tonight. Imbolc, of course, which is a fire festival, and the Moon is in the Dark Phase. Although the New Moon officially begins at 9:31 PM EST, I still use the Dark Moon energies to do banishings and the like. I consider the New Moon energies as active on the first full day of the New Moon, although tonight we will be doing a combination of the two. We will also conduct the Healing Circle. It should be a night full of Magick!
Blessed Be,
Lady Nightshayde

CLICK ON "THE SIXTIES" BELOW
This is the one of the best presentations of the sixties that I have ever seen online. It is very well done. Just click on the link and sit back and enjoy the memories.. Great photos and facts. If you're not quite old enough to have been there, feel free to pass it on to someone who is. Or, you can show it to your kids so they can see what a great generation the Baby Boomers were.

Lady,
My wife & I were in Berkeley & San Francisco during the sixties. We new the
Filmore & Winterland very well. In fact I knew the guys in a little band from El
Cerrito called The Credence Clearwater Revival Band - some great stories I could
tell. I was at the famous Haight Ashberry intersection one Saturday and walked
across the street into the panhandle of Golden Gate Park to hear a free concert
by Fleetwood Mack - Stevie & Lindsey had just joined the band and it was there
first outdoor concert. You may recall the Alice B. Tokeless brownies which were
provided to the National Guard after the People's Park riots which then the
ladies placed daisies in their rifle barrels - my wife was one of the hippies
providing the troops with their "sweets" & fliers. I surfed at Stinson Beach
while my civil minded honey was throwing Molotov Cocktails at the cops,
including my brother, in People's Park. My father worked with Willy Wolfe and
met Patty Hearst, who was introduced as Willy's girlfriend, long before the
"kidnapping". In fact when UC Berkeley was out for the summer they all had lunch
together every day. There is so much more I could talk about!
Our hero's were murdered in front of us and we were dismayed at bigotry, greed,
hatred, stupidity, needless war and a corrupt government. We desperately sought
a gentle, loving and all inclusive Great Society. It wasn't just drugs, sex &
rock & roll. It really was based on good ideas & causes. But if you can draft,
arrest and kill enough people who speak what you disagree with, in total
disrespect of the Constitution and The Bill of Rights, you will eventually win -
and they did.
It was a wild and crazy time. It was beautiful and it was sad and it was fun. We
had the best music, best clothes, best hair and the best times of anyone - ever!
I am so glad that I was there.
I thoroughly loved the little film. And guess what, I also know Yakima, WA VERY
well! (Good vineyards - especially Syrah, lots of hops and great bird hunting!)
Gods how I do get around!
Brightest Blessings,
Stormy )O(
Life is a journey,
enjoy the ride ~
just avoid kissing the trail!

Spiritual Being--Physical Experience
Physical Bodies on Earth
We are on this earth in bodies because our souls have things to learn that we could not learn in any other way.
We are on this earth, in our physical bodies, because our souls have things to learn that we could not learn in any other way. It is through our physical body and the physical world that we can experience life. Purely spiritual beings are just that – they are in a state of being rather than doing – in a place that is beyond the limitations of time and space. But when we incarnate on the physical plane, we are automatically subject to the laws of physics and the world of dualities. In this place, we know what happiness is because we have experienced sadness, and we understand the value and power of light because we have known darkness. Knowing this, we have the opportunity to let ourselves be spiritual beings having a physical experience.
There is no pain in the spiritual realm, because we know we are one with the limitless source of the universe. But here, in the material realm, our sense of limitation and separation allows us to feel our emotions and to learn about love, forgiveness, and compassion. We go from a spiritual state of oneness to learning how to be in relationship with people who are different and distinct individuals. We learn to understand ourselves through our relationships with the world around us—its seasons and landscapes, challenges and opportunities. And through our journey to find our place among so many others, we begin to recognize our own glimmer of light in a constellation of stars.
Once we remember that we are spiritual beings, we can revel in the experience of being human while knowing we are all connected. We can live from the place of oneness while truly appreciating the beauty of diversity, the bittersweet feel of love and loss, and the elation of triumph over challenges and adversity. It is through these opposites that we experience life itself, and we can ride through the dark times with the understanding that it will help us to appreciate the light of life and love and spirit more fully. We are here now because we made the choice to experience an earth life, so now we can choose to enjoy the journey as completely as possible.

Elder's Meditationof the Day
Posted by: "Lady Nightshayde" LadyNightshayde9@aol.com nightshayde99
Wed Feb 2, 2011 11:16 pm (PST)
Elder's Meditation of the Day - February 2
"Even the seasons form a great circle in their changing, and always come back again to where they were. The life of a man is a circle from childhood to childhood and so it is everything where power moves."
-- Black Elk (Hehaka sapa), OGLALA SIOUX
In these modern times it is difficult to understand why we should think circles and seasons. People and society are always moving, through distance, over yonder, going here and going there - hurry up, grow up, be successful, climb the ladder of success, etc. The Elders tell us to slow down, to be patient, pray and think circles. Circle thinking applies to relationships, business and every area of our lives. We need to teach our awareness to look for seasons and cycles.
My Creator, teach me the seasons of growth.

Aromatic Waters are fun to use and
easy to make with distilled water and essential oils.
Use 100 ml of distilled water with 100 drops of essential oils.
Store in a dark bottle and let stand for about a week.
Filter through a coffee filter paper then re-bottle.
Love Each Day,
Lady Nightshayde

How to `Dress` a candle for magical purposes
------------------
The dressing of candles with oils & herbs is believed to
enhance their powers. You should ALWAYS annoint and
"handle" your candles when used for magical purposes.
You will need:
Candle 'Taper & pillar' candles works best for this, but any candle can be used Annointing oil *keep in mind your intent. Ex. Cinnamon oil for success
Herbs or flowers *These can be cut or powdered
Waxpaper
Blue Candle
Candle holder
Find an appropiate color candle for your task.
Clean candle even if it's brand new (use rose or lavender water for this and let dry). Place your tools on your altar, light the blue candle for power and strength. If you are going to carve any symbols or names into your candle, now is the time to do that.
Take some oil and place it in the palms of you hands,
starting at the middle of the candle, rub oil from middle to top for
to "Banish" energy away from you and from middle to bottom
to "Attract" energy to you.
Clear your mind and keep your intent strong.
Next take a piece of wax paper and sprinkle your herbal (or flower) mixture onto paper.
You can use fresh or dried herbs & flowers
Now take your "oiled" candle and roll onto herbs (flowers) until the candle is covered to your liking.
Keep your intent in mind while doing this procdeure.
Place oiled & herbed candle in your clean candle holder.
You now have a "dressed' candle.
This candle must be watch closely as the herbs can catch fire.
WARNING NEVER LEAVE ANY LIGHT CANDLE UNATTENED!
You can also use glass encased candles and dress the top only.

Bride's Day.
------------------
Brigid is the virgin goddess who brings new life to the earth.
She is known as Bride in Scotland - pronounced Breed -
which is the origin of the word 'bride'. Imbolc is also known as
Bride's Day. She was christianised as St. Bridget of Kildare,
the patroness of sheep and fertility, and she was also known
as the 'Mother of Ireland'.Briget's Cross is woven from corn
and consists of four arms that meet to form a square centre
- a fire wheel. Traditionally, on this day candlelit processions
were led to St. Bridget's holy shrines - wells.

Blessing of the Brat Brid
------------------
During the day before Imbolc, the woman of the house or women of the grove
should take a small piece of cloth (larger if it is for the entire grove) and lay it on a bush outside. During the night, as the goddess roams to bless the houses of her followers, she will pass by, touching and blessing the cloth. Collect the cloth in the morning and tear it into small pieces. These pieces of doth, individually called a Brat Brid (BRAHT BREE]), should be distributed among the children and females of the household. The Brat Brid will give them protection throughout the year where ever they go. These pieces of cloth may be sewn into the clothes or jackets of the children to insure that it won't be lost.

Ground-Hog Day
------------------
GROUND-HOG DAY is February 2 of each year. In rural American
radition the groundhog leaves the burrow, on that day, where it has
been hibernating to discover whether winter weather will continue.
If the groundhog cannot see its shadow, it remains above ground,
ending its hibernation. If its shadow is visible (that is if the sun is shining),
there will be six more weeks of cold weather and the animal returns to its
burrow. An old church tradition that a pleasant Candlemas means
a cold spring probably inspired the legend. So, it comes down to this:
You should have an unpleasant purification so that you can really feel purified.

Earth Mother Candle Ritual
------------------
Imbolc is a time of year when many people celebrate change and growth,
and bid farewell to things no longer needed.
For this spell, sweep a circle with a broom to symbolically
remove the old to make room for the new.
It is also a tradition to burn candles on this night as an offering to the
Earth Mother so that her divine power of fertility may soon awaken from
its winter slumber and bring forth springtime.
Light a green candle and recite thrice the following incantation:
"Mother Earth, awaken from your silent winter rest.
Let the springtime goddess of green magic manifest.
Mother Earth, awaken now and hold us to your breast.
We honor thee with love, for we are truly by thee blessed."

Imbolc Magic Lore
------------------
Imbolc is the Celtic holiday that marks the beginning of spring.
It is ruled by the goddess of spring, known as Brigit or Brigantia in Ireland,
and Bride in Scotland. In Irish myth, the god of the earth Dagda, also known
as the "good god," had three daughters, who were all named Brigit.
The first Brigit was the goddess of poetry, the second was the goddess of smithcraft, and the third was the goddess of fire and healing.
All three are really aspects of one triple goddess who was associated with the Sun and with fire.
On this day Brigit used her flame to rekindle the fire in the earth and assure that plants would have the heat that they need to break through the earth and begin to grow.
In ancient times, a woman dressed as Brigit would bless the fires in the households and forges across Ireland. On this day, Brigit's snake would come out of its mound, and the snake's behavior would determine how long the remaining frost will last.
This is the most likely origin of Groundhog Day.
In Christian times, Brigit became a saint associated with the Virgin Mary. Imbolc became the Christian Candlemas, the Feast of the Purification of the Blessed Virgin Mary, which is celebrated by lighting candles.
A Brigit's cross is a talisman made of woven reeds that form a cross with a woven square in the center and four equal arms extending out from the center. This design gives the cross a sense of rotation that evokes the wheel of the year. Brigit's cross should be made or bought on this day and used to protect the home throughout the year.
Also on this night one can leave a silk ribbon on the doorstep for Brigit to bless. Later it can be used for healing.

"If Candlemas be mild and gay,
Go saddle your horses and buy them hay;
But if Candlemas be stormy and black,
It carries the winter away on its back."
~ proverb

A Snowball Purification Spell
------------------
Snow is nature's purifier. The next time it snows,
use this spell to rid your home of negativity. Ideally,
perform this ritual at night during a waning Moon.
Turn off all your lights and walk outside, leaving your front door open.
Make a snowball, and as you hold it visualize all negative energy as
a brilliant blue light, streaming out of every window and door, and collecting in the snowball.
Then say:
Snow light, crystal light,
Cleansing blue light of winter—
As this snowball melts into the ground
Take with it all negativity.
Place the snowball on the ground where it won't be disturbed.
Let it melt naturally taking with it all bad vibrations.
