Nowruz Blessings

This year we did a Nowruz celebration since there was a growing family in my home. I had previously only bought some food and finger wiggled over the holiday since no one wanted to join me in celebrating it. It was only the fiance and myself, but it's a start. I hope to grow it into a larger event next year. I made some traditional foods (took over two rooms actually, I just ran out of space on my art table lol) and made the table to Ama-Tiamat. Instead of this holiday being devoted to Marduk killing our mother as it is traditionally, I reclaimed it for the great mother.

Amazingly enough, my Tanzanian Red Claw scorpion went and gave birth to the minute we finished dinner on the 20th! I've had her for nearly 25 months and she's been fat for 6-8 so maybe her kind does immaculate conception because there is no research for a female being gravid that long. Eighteen months seems to be the max for any species and yes some African species can asexual reproduce when lacking a male. I love how people who hate scorpions keep trying to tell me about emperors trying to discount the magickal amazing thing that we are celebrating and she's not even an emperor scorpion! You will not bring down our joy you negative Nancies! Hehe.

Over 2 days of labour, 10p Tues to 10a Thurs, we got 5 (HUGE) babies total and they are doing wonderful so far. The composite pic above was Thurs am (23rd) when the 5th came out. Her singular is today (28th), a week of baby growth. Yes that one loves to sit over mom's eyes and mouth with some squabbles btwn the first set, she never gets a break on that. 


Not to be an opportunistic alchemist, but all the sheds for my incenses and altar pieces!

My Experience with Soul Retrieval

After a lifetime of torture leading to a series of highly traumatic events I felt myself shatter and split much like you see in the cartoons when the character runs into something. I remember hearing through out my life that I needed to under go a soul shattering, but never found a way to do it in a controlled way so I guess it was done for me in the most violent way possible. There is a process to do it so the person being unmade then remade does not have psychosis, then there was the way it happened for me where it completely takes your mind apart in the process. I had a period of time where I completely lost touch with reality. I would sit on the ground then not be able to trust if it actually was the ground and felt like I was going to fall. I could see my home plane and this world at once and react with both of them; I would duck from the jutting crystals when the path here was clear. I slipped into a serious suicidal fit during this so I would just go home and be done with it. Fi...

Mind Blowing Find in Numerology

I just blew my mind while messing with numerology. I sometimes run odd calculations when I get muddled by the ones I'm actually working on. The typical way to do the birth number calculation is per number. Shall use my birthday. - 1+0+0+7+1+9+8+1= 27 = 2+7= 9 I decided to see what would happen if I added the month to the date to the year as a lump: - 10+7+1981= 1998 = 27 = 9 It works with today's date as well: - 5+4+2+0+1+4= 16 = 7   vs   5+4+2014= 2023 = 2+2+3= 7 To further add to the mind blowing... 1998 was my glory year where I had everything I ever wanted in life (including having my musical talent broadcasted on worldwide tv and touring the us and canada) and was at my happiest. 27 is the year that the events that lead to my psychotic break and redefining "hell" started. I still love the number, it's always been my fave and a highly spiritual number 3^3, esp for draconic work.

A Feather is not Always Just a Feather

It is said that sometimes a dream is just a dream, or a feather is just a feather. Upon looking back over the past year I would beg to differ. The following are some dreams, visions and events of the past year that all seem to correlate into one large message.... just what that message could be exactly is another story... Dream-Periodically from September through November 2009: ***I was in a Samhain ritual with my ex and our newest clan-member. I didn't see her face, she was a bit chubby with black hair but I never saw her face. I watched as he got a little too friendly then initiated sex between them. Dream-Occasionally from October 2009 through March 2010: (the next three kind of progress) ***It was a hot sunny day, I watched my ex back out of the parking space in a black four door car. He was leaving to move in with his new fiancee. When he started to pull out of the parking lot he looked at me and was faceless. (At this time he had a small gray ae86 then a green soarer. ) Dr...
