Hrmmm.
I seem to be updating more, just lately.
It's the Equinox - very nearly - sometimes called Mabon, and it's time to gather in the harvest, lay aside the burdens you no longer need carry, and settle yourself for the new year and the winter to come.
The light is changing, the nights are cooler - summer is gone, the Sun King is dead. Proserpina finds her way into the Underworld and in her grief Dementa will strip the earth of green and growing things.
And we had a bonfire tonight and my hair and hoodie smell wonderfully of woodsmoke and i am so, so happy to be kissing the back of my hand to summer!
Also, this:
Church of All Worlds Ten Commandments
... from the CAW membership newsletter, Winter, 1993
What follows is meant entirely tongue in cheek.
1. This is the first commandment: Be excellent to each other.
Thou shalt have no first commandment but this.
2. If thou carest not for It, thou canst have none of It.
3. Playeth thou nice and avoid the reading of Vogon poetry; it
is a vexation to the soul.
4. Speaketh thou clearly and slowly and not with thy mouth full.
When laughing at sermons, blow not chunks upon the clergy, neither
woofeth thy cookies in far trajectories for, yea, robes are expensive
and dry cleaning dear.
5. Freakest thou not yon mundanes overmuch for, verily, they
whine piteously and wax sorely pissed.
6. Honor thy Planet and Her creations that thy days be long and
thy nights be worth spending at clam bakes. Cleaneth up after thyself
and turneth thou down unused appliances. We meaneth this.
7. Believeth not what thou witness on television but for Star
Trek. Verily, skippeth thou all television but for Star Trek.
8. Where applicable, maketh thou love, not war. Where not
applicable, maketh thou love noisily.
9. Shareth thy bounty with thy friends that they may wax
bountiful. Yea, then thou mayest shareth thy bountiful friends with
still more friends to create yet more bounty. Invite the clergy to such,
uh, sharings.
10. Might dost not maketh right. Nay, 'tis but truth dost maketh
right. But, by the Goddess, we shall be persuaded by all forms of beauty
and even unto the finest of celebrations thereof.
