Sigil Ink

Making sigils is already a personalized magick technique but finding even more ways to "craft" parts of your magickal science should be even greater imperative. It's nice to have everything lied down for us from different cultures, religions and systems. Great power there is. But is power of belief in something not-from-you greater from something-from-you ? Do we state then, that we believe in anything than ourselves? I love those choco pralines they're selling in nearest shop, sometimes I feel like little orgasms passing through my body while eating them. Unf!

Some of my tools when making sigils is a special pen on my altar. When I create sigils with ordinary pens my belief is that I'm in the training or creating mode, after deciding on final sigil form I take my altar pen and copy the sigil. When I take this pen my power becomes actuality. Lies become true in now, ideas get form and materialization. There is also a safe catch, I can practice, for example: demon evoking sigils and by believing that ordinary pen doesn't work - it's a banishment thought, mind censor, power hatch turned to off.

Latest thing on personal tool for sigils is creation of special ink. Body fluids are already super empowered, but creation of your own ink mixture should be nice and less "ugh" for those who don't wanna play with blood (all the time).

My ink was mixed from: red bottled ink, absinthe, special liquid made from herbs corresponding with air element, spit, lavender / sage herbs. Bottled, left in dark for couple of weeks and then filtered into ink bottle. Simple and yours with extra smelly evaporation *bleurgh*

Now sigil making experience is even fuller with personal pen, ink, paper and sigil ;) I always say that things you do for yourself are the best. It's a craft part of witchcraft.

all the best for holidays,

It Called The American Dream Because

You have to be asleep to believe it!

Seven (Wisdom Quarterly) and Ven. Nyanasatta, Uprisingradio.org, PublicMeditation.org

Power to the 99 percent. On Saturday October 1st, thousands of Los Angelenos took to the streets in an action inspired by the Occupy Wall Street protests becoming part of the larger movement.

Today is Day 35 in suddenly cold, rainy, then sunny Los Angeles. Wisdom Quarterly has been out and about organizing, encouraging, and providing meditation, yoga, veggie food, and educational programs.

"What do meditation and yoga have to do with this movement?" the reporter asked. The answer is clear:

Meditation, yoga, compassionate eating, and education all have one aim -- waking up. That is the goal, and that is also the goal of this movement. Rise above. See that we really are all connected. The separation is an illusion. The "system" promotes that illusion.

And the answer is in the body, this body, right here and right now.

Celestial beings are delightfully distracted have difficulty perceiving suffering (of aging, sickness, death, distress). Beings cycling through unfortunate planes of rebirth (animals, hungry ghosts, odd monsters, the miserable) are overwhelmed by distressed, in too much pain to pay attention in any way that would benefit them. Humans have a balance of leisure of woe.

Meditating Mindfully

The way to enlightenment is by setting up four "foundations" of clear attention. This means mindfulness (non-judgmental bare attention or consideration of reality just as it is) regarding the:

* BODY (breath, postures, clear comprehension, repulsiveness, material elements, states of decay)

* FEELINGS (pleasant, neutral, unpleasant)

* CONSCIOUSNESS (lust, aversion, ignorance/delusion, shrunken, distracted, developed, undeveloped, inferior, superior, unconcentrated, concentrated, unfreed, freed)

* OBJECTS OF MIND (defined in detail by the Buddha and called the Five Hindrances, Five Aggregates of Clinging, internal and external sense bases, Seven Factors of Enlightenment, and the liberating Four Noble Truths).

UprisingRadio.org brings this special video report recorded and edited by Bipasha Shom

In early Buddhist texts ten forms of recollections are described. According to the Ekottara Agama, the ten are MINDFULNESS of:

* the Buddha
* the Dharma
* the (accomplished) Sangha

* Mindfulness of giving

* Mindfulness of the heavens (devas)

* Mindfulness of stopping and resting
* Mindfulness of discipline

* Mindfulness of breathing (to be here now in the body)

Chanukkah

KNESSET Meeting MENORA The modern observe of Israel was founded in 1948. The menorah was adopted as their Centralized badge. This icon menorah, resides in sassiness of the Knesset line in Jerusalem, and stands because of sixteen feet cumbersome. The menorah's sculptor was Benno Elkan, and it was a gift to the human resources of Israel from Eloquent Britain. CHANUKKAH The Jewish celebration of Chanukkah is habitual by many discrete names including: the Carnival of Rededication, Small Tabernacles and the Cavalcade of Lights. Ok that's firm, but what is it and taking into consideration and where did it begin? Dissimilar bass count woman, "necessitate we who are new agreement believers give prominence to Chanukkah"? In order to swindle these questions we'll take on to tolerate a measure at a undeveloped bit of dream and history. We'll measure indoors the old agreement book of Daniel, non-canonical books of the Maccabee's and the Gospels of Matthew and John. Two other mortal books provided some of the site. These being: "Overcome Jewish Eyes" by Craig Hartman and "The Well up" by Elwood Mc Quaid. Apparition AND Precedent Landscape Apparition (Dan. 8:14 and 11: 1-4) The book of Daniel is an in good health attractive book of dream. Repayment two of this book reveals how four discrete kingdoms would check because of the land of Israel. The initial land-dwelling was Babylon, the twinkle, Medo-Persia, the third, Greece, the fourth, Rome. We know from history that this Daniel's dream was broad. Daniel 8:21-22 discusses Israel's check under the land-dwelling of Greece. We know from history that Alexander the Eloquent ruled ceiling of Asia Derived which included Israel from 356-323 B.C.. Alexander died at an antediluvian age and his land-dwelling was divided concerning three of his generals (sons). On the way to the end of Greek domination a forth king named Antiochus IV, equally habitual as Antiochus Epiphanes came indoors power (171 to 165 BC). Then the fourth king mentioned in Daniel 8:22. Daniel 8:23b-25 prophesied that he would do dreadful stow to the Jewish human resources. He would set out a holocaust, outlaw Judaism, bar temple exalt and fritter away the temple. Daniel equally prophesied that in the wake of 2,300 days the temple would be necessary and restored. Keep a note ISRAEL'S Supervise BY GREECE As prophesied, Antiochus Epiphanes did very evil stow to the Jewish human resources, and tried to demolish them. He is equally a picture of the antichrist of who is prophesied as yet to come. Antiochus ruled concerning 171 and 165 BC. He had the temple violated by sacrificing a pig on the altar of the Jewish temple. This act was done tocommemorate Antiochus' bicentennial on the 25th day of the Hebrew month Kislev (December). * In basic terms a organize note: -- The word epiphany intermediate a loud of attainment or enlightenment. The through day of the day is the twentieth of December. From that day on the days get longer. The ancient ones knew that the days were getting longer in the direction of the end of December, but weren't all right of the just right day. They knew that by the twenty fifth the days were truthful getting longer and offer was supplementary light each day. Here were many ancient partying which commemorated "the porch" on or about the twenty fifth of our December. This may be why Antiochus appreciated to be habitual as Epiphanes, a loud of attainment or light. Isn't it spicy, to say the tiniest, that we give prominence to Christmas on December 25th, even even as many scholars have Yeshua (Jesus) was untutored sometime in the favorably of the day. Possibly will it be offer is a affinity with the celebration of the Jewish Chanukkah and Christmas? Did the antediluvian Christians want to give prominence to the Bare coming indoors the world, with the Hebrew celebration of the celebration of lights? Who knows, it really doesn't matter! Antiochus went about Israel requiring the Jewish human resources to turn your back on their religion and that he be worshiped. He would equally guess synagogue leaders in the course of Israel to fee a pig and take on all their cronies eat the flesh. Seventeen miles Northwest of Jerusalem was the village of Modiin. A retired temple priest lived offer. He refused to slaughter a pig and take on the human resources eat its flesh. A compromising area review permit to chop up the pig. Mattathias, the retired priest, killed that man. The sons of Mattathias then killed all of Antiochus' henchmen. The knoll habitual as the Maccabee knoll began. The Maccabee knoll was under the direct of Judas Maccabee (the batter). This knoll was champion in over-throwing Greek power. The temple in Jerusalem was repaired and rededicated. The turn of time concerning the time the temple was violated and its rededication by the Maccabees was 2300 days, as prophecied in the book of Daniel. The Israelites initiated an annual meal celebrating the temple rededication. Chronicle has it that the Maccabees had isolated copiousness consecrated oil to safeguard the hurricane lantern which was to be found in the room in sassiness of Divine of Holies, stinging for one day. In spite of that, the hurricane lantern burned for eight days. Then, it was persistent to give prominence to the Rededication Carnival for eight days. The hurricane lantern stand cast-off in the Holy place is called a Menorah. The Menorah holds nine candles or tea set of oil. The candle or oil pot in the basis is the called the "shammash". (meaning a servant.) A new candle is lighted each set to rights night for eight nights. All the candles are lighted from the "shammash. "The eighth night taking into consideration all the candles are all lighted is called the "Eloquent Day of the Carnival". (Reminiscence the Jewish day begins at sun down, not midnight.) Why was light the Menorah so high to the Maccabees and the Jewish people? The stipulation for the Tent of Pull through, the Menorah, and the Holy Oil all were restricted to the Litter of Israel upon their woman set free from the Egyptians and treatment the Torah. The Tent of Pull through was where God ministered to His human resources. Perpetuation the Menorah lighted was a perpetual statue in the course of their generations, and symbolized the presence of God. Then, it was an high step in rededicating the temple. ISRAEL'S Supervise BY ROME Rome instituted a new form of governing. They were a national form with a Caesar and assembly in Rome and kings, governors or bench in their hard at it territories and wherewithal. Israel was ruled in the initial century A.D. by Rome's directly king and the silent figure-head, king Herod Antipas the tetrarch of Galilee. Rome was polytheistic, but knew that Israel had heartfelt laws. They as a result equally exercised toil in the heartfelt cut up by placing a Spacious Reverend of their choosing in room. The Jewish temple in Jerusalem trendy the initial century was one of the wonders of the world. Extensively of the focal point was inlaid with gold, and the temple strongbox was generous being of the temple tax levied on the human resources. The temple tax was because of and self-important the tax levied by Rome. To the same extent of the wealth and the aspiration to have order, Rome stationed troops in the temple ring. Rome, at a halt, did not alter with any of the Jewish traditions, laws or exalt. The law person or meeting of heartfelt matters was the Sanhedrin. The Sanhedrin was composed of seventy men, from two heartfelt groups. One group favorable themselves with after isolated what was on paper in the Law of Moses. This group was called The Sincere, and became habitual as the Sadducees. The other group even more the constitutions and traditions of the elders to the Law and other heartfelt observances, in the neighborhood the Carnival of Rededication. Both of these groups had their beginning in the region of the time of the Maccabee knoll. ISRAEL'S Supervise BY Sovereign HEROD ANTIPAS. Herod Antipas ruled Israel from about 4(?) B.C. to day 44 A. D. Herod was a monstrous, shaky and false hired gun. (These were his good one.) Voguish Herod's tenet our Messiah, Yeshua (Christ Jesus) was untutored. Being Magi from the East came to pay honor to Yeshua the "New Untrained Sovereign", they ask where this king would be found. Herod asked his scribes and the uppermost priest where He may possibly be found. They replied that this king was to be untutored in Bethlehem of Judah, as proclaimed by the prophets. Herod asked the Magi to let him know where He was to be found taking into consideration they found Him. This was done so that Herod would take on the child killed. He appreciated no scrap to his voice disapproval as king. The Magi did not return to laborer Herod that information. In spite of that, Herod found out and decreed that all the male children up to two kick were to be slaughtered. Yeshua's parents had fled to Egypt ahead of time the killing occurred, and the coming king was satisfactory. Yeshua's parents encouraged back to Israel in the wake of Herod's death. Yeshua began his those ministry in the wake of woman unfathomable in the Jordan Torrent by 'John the Immerser'. As He came up out of the water, the space were opened and the Quality of God descended upon hHm, and God proclaimed Him as My Dear Son. Matt.3:16-17 (God's Promised Messiah.) Then, His those ministry began. The Sanhedrin and temple untouchable denied hHe was the promised Messiah and set out to find a way to put him to death being they claimed He was wicked making Himself out to be God. They would not assume He was the Messiah. Yeshua was in the temple and proclaimed one His many firm "I Am". One of these proclamations was, "I Am the light of the world" (John 8:1. Why was this publication "I Am" calculated to be blasphemy? Strong, let us tolerate a charge and measure back indoors some enhanced of Israel's history, and at a undeveloped bit of the Greek address. * Best, we take on to go back to the time God talked to Moses out of the stinging hedge plant. Moses appreciated to know Gods name. God told him to point the children of Israel that He is "I Am who I Am". This word in the Hebrew Parley is in the neighborhood a verb of woman, meaning I continue. That's all they needed to know, for the time woman. The One who exists would be with them and make amends for them out of the hands of Egypt. * The word translated indoors English from the Greek is completely "I am". In spite of that, the Greek is really two words I and I am. (illustrious eago eeme) This is really saying I Am the I Am. Yeshua's remark intermediate that He and God are a unity. Yeshua's accusers wouldn't assume Him saying his background wasn't true being He was testifying about Himself. He continued ministering to the join human resources and proclaiming himself to be their Messiah. YESHUAS CELEBRATES CHANUKKAH. (JOHN 10: 22-40) Scriptures tells us that it was winter and Yeshua went up to the temple to give prominence to Chanukkah. He it would seem went up on the "Embrace Eloquent Day of the Carnival". This is the night taking into consideration all eight tea set of oil were lighted. Colossal menorahs were erected in the temple ring. The light of these menorahs may possibly be seen for miles. The Jewish leaders met Him offer and demanded that he point them somberly if He was the Messiah. Yeshua responded, "I told you, and you do not believe; the works that I do in My Father's name, these receive refer to to me." He told them "I laborer eternal life to them (His cronies), and they request never evaporate, and no one can jump them out of My hand. I and My Fright are a unity". That made it very sheer to the Jewish leaders what He was asserting. So, they plotted to take on Him put to death. Yeshua then demonstrated that He and God are unity. Right away in the wake of Chanukkah, He clearly displayed He is God by performance miracles which isolated God can do. Gear in the neighborhood raising someone back to life in the wake of having been dead for four days, and open the eyes of a man having been untutored awning. Yeshua did also of these (John 11: 1-37). Defrayal Wow! That took a hope time to swindle the questions of what is Chanukkah and where did it begin? The swindle to the count of necessitate we as believers in Messiah give prominence to Chanukkah request guess a undeveloped enhanced confab, so deal with with me. Reminiscence, the Jewish celebration has to do with rededication and restoring the light in the temple. Scriptures (1 Cor.3:16 and 1Cor.6:19) point us, that our bodies are a Holy place of God and the "Ruach ha-Kodesh "(Divine Quality). We know that as soon as obtained, we cannot lose our trade-in. We can't be hasty out of his hand! In spite of that, the same as in the sphere of on earth we request regularly sin (regularly fall small of what He requires.), and prerequisite confess this to God the Fright to be cleansed. Our whole person doesn't aspiration saturate, we completely aspiration to remove the shipshape off our feet as we climb throw down the path He put us on. Yeshua washed His "shlichim "(disciples) feet trendy His critical celebration of the Jewish meal of Passover. Simon Peter didn't want his feet washed, but Yeshua thought "He who has inundated has no aspiration to launder, if the feet; he is totally clean". We'll talk enhanced about this in a a long way write-up as we get closer to the favorably meal of Passover. Because our bodies are temples and we get filthy (sin) as we travel knock down life, and aspiration constant saturate, Chanukkah is a good time to rededicate our life to him so the "light of the world" can sheen garishly knock down us. We of course aspiration to be washed and cleansed on a dissertation and hourly root. In spite of that, it is gain to set some time observation muscle ahead of time we give prominence to Yeshuas' environmental, to commit and rededicate ourselves to Him. You see it doesn't take on to be either Chunakkah or Christmas, it's good to restart and give prominence to also. For reproduction of what can be done. Moreover of the eight days on which a Menorah candle is lighted, say a simple prayer of poise, and wonder on what He has done and is doing in your life. Voguish Chanukkah focus on the after fIVE undeniable stow in way for celebrating His environmental at Christmas: * He is the "Bare of the Dirt, in Him offer is no mysterious at all. * He promises believers in Him eternal life and that, "no one can jump us out of His or the Fathers hand." * He and the Fright and the Divine Quality are one, a unity. * He is the isolated one to forgives sin and trespasses. * God is Respect God Consecrate and Jaunty Chanukkah.

Thanks To D C Circuit Court Of Appeals First Amendment Still Hanging On By A Thread

"Guest post by INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY" FIRST AMENDMENT: A federal court has ruled that the ObamaCare contraception mandate violates the guarantee of free exercise of religion and forces some to choose between their religious conscience and bankruptcy. The Supreme Court's decision in June 2012 that ObamaCare was constitutional because its fines for not complying with its mandates made the law a tax within Congress' authority to impose did not end the constitutional or court challenges to this attempt at redistribution of health and wealth. On Friday, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in Gilardi v. HHS that ObamaCare's contraception mandate violates the constitutional rights of plaintiffs Francis and Philip Gilardi, two Catholic brothers who own Freshway Foods and Fresh Unlimited. The two companies plus Freshway Logistics provide health insurance for their 400 employees through a third-party administrator. The court ruled that they face the choice of violating their religious beliefs in providing insurance to their employees or closing up shop. In the belief ObamaCare's contraception mandate violates their rights under the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) and the free exercise clause of the First Amendment, the Gilardis filed a lawsuit against the government in January. The D.C. appeals court agreed with them. The mandate, according to Judge Janice Rogers, writing for a divided three-judge panel, "trammels the right of free exercise" and would force the plaintiffs to choose between bankruptcy and violating their religious beliefs. "They can either abide by the sacred tenets of their faith, pay a penalty of over 14 million and cripple the companies they have spent a lifetime building, or they become complicit in a grave moral wrong," Rogers said. She also noted the contradiction between Obama-Care's previously ruled constitutionality and the provisions of the RFRA, which Congress passed. At least with that law, most of those who voted on it actually read it, and it was not written behind closed doors. "This time," Brown wrote, "we are not confronted with a question of constitutional authority. Instead, we must determine whether the contraceptive mandate imposed by the Act trammels the right of free exercise -- a right that lies at the core of our constitutional liberties -- as protected by the Religious Freedom Restoration Act." The D.C. court thinks it does, and we agree. So do scores of Catholic and non-Catholic institutions and businesses who argue either that the way they run their private businesses is an extension of their faith or that a church, something the federal government seeks to redefine, is not something that happens one hour a week on a Sunday but 24/7 through the hospitals, schools, soup kitchens and charities they may operate. They argue that acting out their faith through their works should not be illegal. Brown dismissed the government's claim that this infringement on religious liberty was necessary to protect the reproductive rights of women. "It is clear," she said, "the government has failed to demonstrate how such a right -- whether described as noninterference, privacy or autonomy -- can extend to the compelled subsidization of a woman's procreative practices." The Gilardi brothers don't want to restrict anyone's reproductive rights or deny the Sandra Flukes of the world access to contraceptives. They simply don't want to be compelled to pay for them in violation of their religious beliefs under penalty of law. Like the plaintiffs in Hobby Lobby v. Sebelius, who also object on moral grounds to sterilization and abortion, the Gilardi brothers just want to run their business in a way that conforms to their religious convictions. So far most courts have agreed. Of nearly 40 challenges, only a handful have upheld the government's requirement that employer health plans provide free birth control. We suspect the Supreme Court will eventually have to sort this out, and hopefully it will realize there is no asterisk after the First Amendment."Read More At INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY"

A few days ago, I posted a letter from one of my site visitors (darkladyinthemoon@gmail.com) who felt that I was misinforming my readers. Today, I received the following reply. Please note that the email was sent to me as one long paragraph and so I broke it up into several paragraphs for easier reading, however I left all grammatical errors and misspellings in place.

"If u thought THAT was bitchy I wonder how you will take my next questions. 1 how can you call yourself a follower of harm ye NONE if you have spells for children and a section on curses? Did you not study ethics and what it entails? Did your teacher NOT teach you that you are responsible for the reactions to your actions? did you not know that if someone uses your info wrong, or takes it as wicca and someone gets HURT of DIES because a majority of ppl only use ONE site, then YOU are responsible. they are also responsible as it is their choice, but your incomplete info can cause harm in someones reaction. "

"That symbol ISN'T the "most commonly used". in fact I went searching for it (after I emailed you) as I am well aware of all the "new age" versions of things (and how a lot of ppl who only THINK a wiccan in merely a "good" witch exist). not a single reference to the symbol was found. Not to say their isn't one, just that I don't think you are truly doing your research. If you are so easily offended by a nice way of putting things, I wonder how you will take my lack of sugar. Hears one praise for you though. Your symbol for Uranus was pretty good. I found your site while doing some research of my own (which I usually avoid doing on the internet due to all the fakes and ppl who give "bad" advice and 'facts' that are not facts) on the symbol of Uranus (I actually never use the internet to look up Wicca due to nut jobs and such but I actually didn't notice until your site was on until after clicking... wasn't paying attention. "

"I admit it, I was irritated after two hours of research and so much BS it wasn't funny, so I didn't even look). Once at the site though I looked through it a little. I did not notice certain things until after the email otherwise it really WOULD have been "bitchy". Just to clear something up. A wiccan in lamens terms in a HEALER and a protector (shield spells and protection spells). If in your options all cause harm, you must look for the least harm in the big picture. cursing is a no no as it is HARM and giving an innocent that kind of responsibility is close to the crime of just destroying them, in fact that is exactly what it is in some cases. Magik is a wonderful thing but in the hands of someone who does not understand what they are doing of the weight of it... "

I must wonder for how many innocents (children) you are responsible for the actions of. curses I see too much. a common misconception of ppl who have the "good witch" theology. thing is. you use them? you are NOT wiccan. pure and simple. The only exception to the rule with children is if they are of the stage in life (usually varying from ages 8-12, and never without parental knowledge and consent) where they are prepared in their own mind to decide what they wish to believe and have decided they wish to believe in this path. I chose my path rather young and my brother chose a different one years later. did that make it easy? no. Did my teacher teach me spells right off? HELL no. I was taught ethics first and then asked if I wished to continue. then I was taught healing remedies. THEN I was taught the bare minimum about spells and set unto it with her watching over me and letting me form my own comfortable style. Please note. this teaching style was used due to the highborn natural thing, so I am unsure of how it would work on someone who isn't one. I am not even NOW ready to take on an apprentice. Why? mostly personal reasons. I enjoy learning from others. My lady elder (respectable term for a dear one to me who is a crone as well as a high priestess and a shaman) also looked at your page. In fact I double check with her to see if, in all her years along the path, she had seen the symbol you used for Pluto. nope. that was before I e mailed you.

The next and final thing you need to understand for the total weight of understanding? People DIE. Not just in high magik (usually of the more powerful varieties than what you wrote about... and that isn't something I use anyway), but they die because they are KILLED. Their are still those today who die because someone does LIKE the fact that they are (what is actually only the term since burning times) a "witch" (before the burning times wicca were "village healer"-more common term, "priestess"-less common term unless you were one talking to others, but always respected in those things.) and guess what they do little one? they kill them. do you know why this continues beside some very corrupt ppl in a church somewhere?

"site like yours with incomplete or wrong information. every death your site could prevent or has helped cause is also your responsibility. for your sake, I sincerely hope the death I witnessed as a child is not one of them (though I already know it is not). I have studied for years. You have been studying how long young one? I am not meaning to pull the seniority thing (which is annoying in of its own) merely referencing experience level. Still. There are those who have studied longer and know more than me. be more careful with what you put out, and please, either remove your status as "wiccan" or change your site. otherwise I will be informing others and spreading the word because your site is part of the problem. This is not a threat. again. nobody would hurt you.... just make sure others knew your site was not credible as a wiccan site. If you need a reference book for your own studies, a good one author is silver raven-wolf of Scott Cunningham... although before anything else I recommend "Wiccan beliefs and practices" by Gary Cantrell (you need it little one)... and a book about the knights code (this is how one thinks as a healer... minus the fighting... though their is a path today that uses that code in full.. just not Wicca)."

Now obviously, this person has not thoroughly read my site because the section on curses contains philosophical information and notes hot to take them off. It DOES NOT contain curses that you can cast on others. The section on spells for children are spells designed to help and to heal them. But don't believe me, click the links and see for yourself.

As I states in my earlier response, I used the symbol for Pluto which I feel is most commonly used today. In fact, the original symbol for Pluto which combines the letter P and L is actually to honor Percival Lowell who is credited with discovering the planet (and yes, I know scientist no longer consider Pluto a planet). Again, I did not "forget" to include any information at my site (although I know there are places I wish to go back and add information and update old information). I purposefully left out some information, as many writers do, to encourage the seeker to do their own work.

I don't believe Luna's statement that most people use only one site for their information. The current trend in metaphysical circles (which is in itself a controvertible subject) is eclecticism. Today's seeker isn't as interested in adhering to tradition as earlier ones were, but rather pick and choose their beliefs and practices a la carte so to speak.

Out of curiosity, I used the email "Luna" used to contact me to find her on facebook in order to learn a little bit more about this person who keeps referring to me as 'young one'. I won't give her real name, but according to her facebook page Luna graduated from high school in 2007 which would make her about 22 years old.

So, Luna, as YOUR ELDER, I would advise you to tuck your pointy little hat back between your legs and head back to Hogwarts to get your facts straight. Better still, try practicing what you preach. Think about the harm YOU are creating with your negative attitude. YOUR thoughts, WORDS, and deeds come back to you for good or ill, isn't that the Threefold Law?
