Northern Beltane 2013:
Current mood: pensive
Current weather: warm, clear
Current listening: Hecate's Wheel
I'm late again, or barely in time, depending on your timezone. So sue me.
So Beltane has come to the northern hemisphere. Oh, yes, spring has definitely sprung here, and sumer is icumin in. The trees are in full bloom and the full heat of summer is definitely encroaching. The wheel has turned and life is here in full force, in all its glory.
It may seem odd to some, but I tend to get depressed in the summer. Maybe it's the heat. Still, it always gets me thinking that another cycle of life is passing, and, well, it just makes me feel old. (Really, I'm not as old as I sometimes make my...

March Equinox 2013:
Current mood: pensive
Current weather: cloudy, warm
Current listening: Hecate's Wheel
Time flies. The winter, it seems, passed too quickly. The northern hemisphere is now coming into the light. The exact moment of the equinox was about twelve hours ago, as I write this entry. Part (but only part) of the reason that I am at my best in the dark cycle is that the best times of my life occured during the winter. I still will assert, though, that the natural tendency to withdraw brings out the best in people, certainly the best in me, as it tends to bring out a tendency to contemplate the deeper things, and to share some insights thus gained.
Life is definitely returning, thoug...

Oh the Humanity:
Current mood: pensive
Current weather: cool, clear
Current listening: Spiral Dance
A few hundred thousand years ago, the human race arose in Africa. Who'd a' thunk that what at first appeared to be just another tool-wielding species would turn out to become such a potent presence on the planet?
Humanity spead from its African cradle, into Europe and Asia and other parts of the world, seeking new ground, seeking expansion, seeking whatever. Different cultures arose. Different religions arose. Different ways of life.
The early humans learned to apply themselves and their knowledge. A Neolithic Revolution arose, paving the way from more nomadic to more sedentary societies...

Northern Imbolc, Southern Lunasadh:
Current mood: pensive
Current weather: cold, clear
Current listening: Spiral Dance
Winter is coming to an end in this hemisphere. Or so at least one would think. It tends to hang on a bit here, or rather, it tends to make its comeback just when everyone thinks spring has sprung for good. Mama can be sneaky that way.
I've mentioned numerous times that winter tends to be my favorite season, the time when I feel at my best. I still feel that way. Yeah, I gripe about the cold as much as any other person, but, really, I'm still a cold weather person. I still hold that the dark cycle tends to bring out the best in people. It is the time of reatreat, and with that comes introsp...

MMXIII revisited:
Hm, well. Again I'm not satisfied with a recent blog entry. Of course, I'm never fully sastisfied, but this one was a bit hastily written.
It was my usual pessimistic rant, but even pessimistic rants can be better written than that. If anything I needed to expand on a few things. I might start with these.
War in general: >40 conflicts currently ongoing.
No, I can't name these off the top of my head. I probably can't name the majority of them. (Okay, I can't name the majority of them, so sue me.)
Occupy movement: epic fail.
Okay, sticky wicket here. I was likely misunderstood. By epic fail I meant an epic failure to maintain itself, having been brou...

Doomsday revisited:
Current mood: pensive
Current weather: clear, damncold -3°C windchill -8°C
Current listening: Hecate's Wheel
No, it's not about doomsday. It's a followup on my recent blog entry "Doomsday" regarding the alleged Mayan doomsday.
Okay, as I said, there was no such prophecy from the Mayans auguring the end of the world on the December solstice of 2012. It's merely the end of the cycle. The whole issue of the world ending came from a misinterpretation (or rather, a misunderstanding) of a time of upheaval and instability--in other words, that the end of the Long Count cycle would occur during a time of upheaval. This much tu...

I hadn’t imagined to hear from you this night--or when the message was sent--but tonight for me….I suppose that is the beauty of posts and retroactive collected when ready replies, where weeks, months, even years, and then suddenly—surprise! 8DDDD
Happy New Year! (I know this is your season…enjoy!!!)
