Tending the Glorious Garden
2007-05-08 20:32:00 Ooooooo…it’s that time of year again. I haven’t had a garden in several years now….too much moving around in college. But now I have a nice little place to live with a relatively good amount of planting space. Planning a garden gets me all weak in the knees. All of the ...

It is a psychological disorder similar to agoraphobia which some spiritual seekers, mystics, prophets and gurus can develop.

Why it’s not a competition…
2007-04-30 02:31:00 Being on a spiritual path can make you long to meet others who are of like mind. But being lucky enough to know other people who are of a like mind to you is not always a cake-walk. It can sometime be hard word to maintain these friendships. Humans have become viciously competitive in this modern world and it is a human trait which can be hard to leave at the door to the temple, if you know what I mean. This can be forgiven in someone that we know to be really and truly working on his or her spiritual path, on self-development and enlightenment. At least you know that they are working on it and can have faith that they will tackle their challenge eventually. What is most frustrating is the vicious behavior of hangers-on, people who profess the way and spout the readings but don’t walk the talk…in short there are pretenders in any faith, some of whom mean well but haven’t the wherewithal or the awareness to become true seekers. I have seen the well-meaning in... More About: Competition , Petition , Hell , Petit
New Channeling: The Law of Attraction
2007-04-26 16:25:00 This one is fresh, about five minutes old, from my newest guide Astra. Astra is ascended and has a unique way of keying into popular topics in order to deliver universal insights that are timely. This one is a little brief but very informational. ~ I want to talk to you about the cause and effect of your thought upon your path. I can’t say that this is the “Law of Attraction ” per se but is more like the law of opposites. What you think you make that is well known but what folks don’t recognize is the opposite truth that accompanies that: what you don’t think you don’t make. Don’t think about negative things and they will have a harder time manifesting in your life. The same is true for positive things. Sometimes people say be in “the now” as if thinking about the future is a bad thing, or a waste of time. What is bad about not being in the now is the dwelling on the past. In your place and in your realm of existence the past is not changeable ... More About: Law of Attraction , Channel , Anne , Trac

Blog Apocalypse: Why I Blog…
2007-04-24 05:08:00 I have been tagged by my good friend Matthew to join in the Blog Apocalypse meme. The brainchild of The Urban Monk, the Blog Apocalypse is a fund-raising and attention-raising effort, now joined by a multitude of bloggers, designed to elicit some exemplary blog writing and show how each of us and all of us, joined in a community, can bring about small changes that benefit us all. First the challenge: The blogosphere is ending. No more blogs. Blog apocalypse. The internet is still working, the world is fine. But you can’t write anymore. Write your last post. Make it a good one. What is the reason you blog? What is the last gem of knowledge you want to leave? What do you want to be remembered for? Who are you? What is the meaning of life? Haha…well not exactly but you get the point. Pour your heart into it. Now my apocalyptic post: Why do I blog? I started this blog VeraNadine.com after a couple of failed attempts at blogging about more mundane things such as my life as creati... More About: Hell , Auction 73

Oh, Hello there
2007-04-16 16:25:00 Hi folks! Sorry for my absence, I have been working (though not so feverishly) on my newest manuscript…an interesting little ditty about building you own magical traditions instead of being bound by what others say or write. Of course, all traditions were started by someone and then repeated by others, that is how things become traditions. So, what is the harm in starting your own. If you ask me that is what makes a tradition meaningful to you, changing it to make it your own or designing it to fit your spiritual needs. For instance, some people decorate eggs for Ostara and plant them for what they would like to have manifest in the new year, some people take old shoes or old clothing and burn it to release the old and welcome in the new. Well if you don’t feel that these traditions suit your needs for banishing old and welcoming new, you could bake a cake that represents the old and put it in one of those net bird feeder socks with some seed to represent the new. W...

Do you have ?the sight??
2007-03-16 16:30:00 Someone wrote and asked. When did you first know that you had the sight? Good question. I, of course, do not have a very simple answer. Firstly the sight is ofttimes a complete misnomer as many psychics do not actually SEE anything. I think that this is what can give rise to dismay ...

Mercury, Doing the Backwards Waltz
2007-02-20 14:29:00 Yipppeeeee! It’s my favorite time of the year, when Mercury goes retrograde and we all stick our foot in our mouth while graciously accepting responsibilities and entanglements that we would never otherwise be foolish enough to get ourselves into. What is Mercury Retrograde you ask and why would something “out there” affect what happens in our lives “down here?” Mercury, the fleet-footed God of the ancients, is the planet in our solar system that rules communication. He can get the point across quickly and smoothly with no confusion. Of course, that is when he is moving forward and he has his groove on. (So to speak.) In a retrograde period, which happens occasionally throughout the year, we have a cycle of a few days or weeks when observing Mercury in the night sky would show you that it is apparently moving backwards in its orbit. This is an optical illusion caused by the difference in speed between the Earth’s rotation around the sun and th... More About: Backwards

Snow Magic
2007-02-16 00:23:00 Since it is winter and many people are thinking about snow, or the lack thereof, I thought that I would put together a short primer on Snow Magic for all of you. Keep in mind that you really can have too much of a good thing and that you should always be careful what you wish for. Bringing Down the Snow Ingredients: an ice cube and a sharpish knife Begin with the ice cube in your less dominant hand and the knife in your dominant hand. Shave the knife across the top of the ice cube so that you get a bunch of flakes (like trying to scrape butter off of a stick that is still too hard to spread on toast.) Now that you have the hang of it, begin in the east (element of air for most) and work, scraping those icy, snowy flakes to the ground around you, in a clockwise circle until you reach the point of manifestation in the north and then close the circle. While doing this action say (out loud or to yourself): I make manifest the snows of winter, a bright white powder, decorating the w...

February Moon Cycle
2007-02-14 19:41:00 February is the month of the Ice Moon , it’s fullness falling on the 3rd this year. As I sit and write this I can hear the sound of snow and sleet bouncing off of the window behind me. It is ice in the making. As we cycle through the new moon on the 18th we head toward March and the Storm Moon. As for me I hope that we receive enough precipitation to ward of an early drought but that it remains clear enough to see the fullness of the mother in all of her glory.

Imbolc as Valentine’s
2007-02-14 14:54:00 Well here we are at February 14th. The day when the mundane finally catches up with the pagan. Early February is the time of the stirring, the awakening of the seeds that will create life in the cycle to come. The ancient way is that of the youthful maiden, giggling joyously at the stirring in her heart and her loins. It is girls forgetting that boys have cooties and boys no longer feeling the urge to pull pigtails. It is the butterflies in one’s stomach. It is the first blush, the first kiss. This is Imbolc , celebrated on February the 2nd each year by Pagans and Wiccans the world over. It is a day sacred to the goddess Bridget, hence the placement of St. Bridget’s Day close to it in the modern calendar. It is the festival of light when we begin to stretch our hope forward out of the darkness of winter and we feel youthful and alive once more. We do not need to ship our local rodent out before a spray of cameras, for our connection the divine Earth will tell us in... More About: Valentine

The Creaking Door
2007-02-13 04:16:00 I have never been in the closet about who I am. It seems a waste of time to me if you breath and speak and never say anything of truth or value. I am a true witch. I did not become this by reading a book. I was born as I am. I have been dedicated and focused, living with integrity. I have earned my title and do not need to advertise with a bumper sticker. For many years people have felt instinctively that they can sip tea with me and allow the cauldron of their woes and wonderings to overflow at my feet without any fear for the clean-up. Today, I opened the creaking door to my magic cupboard of spiritual ingredients and this blog spilled out. I hope that you will find acceptance and inspiration here. Share This More About: Door
