Hi Nisaba,

Sounds lovely. Becoming the 'one in the middle' could be just the ticket :)

Over the moon and away we go ..

Spiritually speaking the witches art is a view of the world of the unseen by eyes finely attuned to feel its very skin...
but religiously speaking, anything can find value in something they put faith in, but will that faith be returned to you or to those you share this awareness with, it is easy to want to belong, but in the end, are you apart of it or is it now part of you... (that is where the line between the finder and the found happen....) all i know is when, i see it, it sees me like a mirror, i need not look into it, but know when i do its never going to turn from me, unless i don't wish to look...)
can you say the same thing......?

RIP Tiggles May 1993 - 18/3/2011

My familiar and much loved Cat called Tiggles left this incarnation at 6.30pm
Friday 18th March 2011.

He had battled diabetes and kidney failure for three years but on Friday he had
also developed liver failure and hypothermia, although Tiggles was not in
distress or pain it was a professional opinion by the vet that the cats body was
shutting down and the decision was to put the cat to sleep.

Why am I telling this to members of a witches forum?

Tiggles was well known by the people who attended Pagans in the Pub - He sat in
on committee meetings and took part in meditations. He also went on camps with
the Spheres of light.

Regards

Simon Goodey
