Full Moon: Wyrt, Dispute, Lightning

Huntress Skyfire — Sat, 13 Aug 2011 20:39:55 +0000

Tonight is the full moon. I am going to have company for a good part of the night, so my time spent enjoying the moon will be a little limited, I do, however, have plans for later on this evening, when I can be alone, to work a little magic. I want to try a meditation or something to help me in following the right path toward how to own the house where I lived for so many years with my parents. I’ve been trying for a long time now to get to a position where I can repurchase the house out of a reverse mortgage, and I am about to enter into the difficult part of the equation, so I want to get myself centered and grounded and calmed down so that I am as stress-free as possible and can focus on exactly what needs to be done. I’m thinking some quiet time and meditation tonight should help toward that goal. See if my guides might have anything to offer on what I should be keeping in mind if I were not so scatter brained as I am at the moment.

Thankfully my company is going to be the sort that I am not going to have to spend all of my time entertaining, so I plan to spend some of the time when I am going to have company doing a little research on all of the properties of the August full moon. Just to make sure that I have everything clear in my mind later this evening.

A Long and Difficult Year, and then some

Huntress Skyfire — Sun, 07 Aug 2011 00:31:24 +0000

It has been a long and difficult time for me, 2010 was filled with chaotic events that tossed me this way and that up to the passing of my father, which left me in a foggy haze for most of the rest of the year. I was thrown into another turmoil immediately following his passing, and have been struggling since.

I have finally started to resurface enough that I am going to attempt to get myself back to work on things, including the Alaskan Pagan Network website. I have a determination to make it back to this site at a minimum of once a week to add a few updates and share a spell or information on something. I would like to say that I could make it every day, but I am not going to promise something I know would be beyond my ability at the moment. So, for now… once a week posts here and updates on the main site.

Happy New Year – 2010

Huntress Skyfire — Sat, 02 Jan 2010 08:11:44 +0000

It is 2010 now based on the common calendar, time for resolutions. I’ll share some of mine tomorrow, for now I just want to say:

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Where does the time go?

Huntress Skyfire — Sun, 21 Jun 2009 22:46:04 +0000

I can not believe that the summer solstice is here already. Where did the time go?? I am not ready for winter to be on its way, I’m not even ready for summer to be here.

Book of Shadows Rebound

I have rebound the Book of Shadows blog, the first step in revamping the entire website.

Tarot Cards and Tea Leaves

Huntress Skyfire — Mon, 29 Dec 2008 12:14:24 +0000

I am thinking about starting two more areas here at the Alaskan Pagan Network, sort of personal discovery journals focused on two divination tools I have always wanted to learn more about. The Tarot and tea leaf reading.

I have been thinking about starting up a Tarot readings journal where I can enter what cards have come up in a reading and what I think the interpretation of that reading and the cards in it is – with a comment area for others to post their own input on what the cards might be saying.

I’ve also been thinking about taking up the habit of starting or ending my days with meditation and a cup of tea, so a similar journal for Tea Leaf Readings might be a good way for me to learn more about reading tea leaves.

The Witches’ Voice

Huntress Skyfire — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 08:09:42 +0000

The Alaskan Pagan Network is now a proud sponsor of The Witches’ Voice.

On October 31st I made a sponsorship donation to The Witches’ Voice on behalf of this site, helping to assure that all who desire to believe what their hearts feel have a voice to support them in their beliefs.

I know that as I discovered more and more about the online Pagan community, The Witches’ Voice was a constant source of reference for me to go to, to seek information, to find others in my area and to simply feel that I was not alone. I have wanted to be a sponsor for The Witches’ Voice for some time now, and decided that it was time to stop wanting to be a sponsor and start being one.

Samhain

Huntress Skyfire — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 22:40:52 +0000

It is strange to imagine that Samhain is only one day away. I have been busy over the course of the week and had not realized until a few minutes ago that it is the 30th of the month today – tomorrow is Samhain!

I hope that everyone is more ready for this than I have turned out to be this year, but then — I have not exactly been looking forward to Samhain this year as I have in years past. For me, the day can just simply pass on by and be behind me rather than ahead of me. I would not mind any at all.

I still have not really decided if I will be doing anything for Samhain or not.

Pictures of book coming soon

Huntress Skyfire — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 22:48:22 +0000

I got my desktop computer set back up, so as soon as I can get GIMP installed again and the images from my camera edited I will share pictures of what the handbound book I am making looks like. I am really happy with how it is turning out and can’t wait to see the thing finished, I just am not sure if I will have the heart to sell it once it is finished.

Finding the Time for Ritual

Huntress Skyfire — Mon, 20 Oct 2008 05:07:03 +0000

I have been finding out that one of the biggest problems I have is finding the time to do a ritual. It seems like whenever I think I have some time to cast a circle and work a spell or something, someone comes by to visit, or someone calls or I am needed for something… even late at night. It is driving me crazy trying to sort out me time to work on spells and ritual. I have it narrowed down now to where I think I should be able to have private time between 1am and 4am, so I think I will make around 2 or 3 in the morning my
target time for personal time to focus on casting a circle and working spells.
