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.

I’ve been thinking I need to work on a weight loss spell that can help me with losing weight.  I am going to make this one slightly different from any I have tried before.  Instead of some kind of candle magic or something similar, I am going to make this a full out kitchen witch project.

I’ve never done a lot of kitchen witchery, although I do know some stuff about how to get around a kitchen magically, I never tended to do very much kitchen magic.

Time to change that and get started with some kitchen witchery on weight loss spells.  I’ll be working on this later this evening, right now I have other things that I have to get taken care of.

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.

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.

I have been working on a dragon painting for the cover of an artist book that can be used for either an artist to keep their sketches or as a book of shadows by a pagan that loved dragon magic.

I’m very happy with how the book is turning out, but until I get back my desktop computer  I can’t share any pictures of it.  I’ll get some pictures of it as soon as I can, however, and share them with everyone here.

I have been working on getting a copy of my BOS organized for sharing with others in the form of a handbound BOS.  It is not exactly easy, since a lot of what will be going into it are actually things I have not written down before, being kept in my head rather than in any book or on a computer.  So many of my spells are done from memory rather than being read recipe-like from a BOS that I really never write many of them down, so creating a working BOS to share with others means a lot of things that were never written before now need to be set to paper to supplement my BOS and make it complete.
