P.S. Cara Schulz, you're not one of those at patheos that I take offense to.

Samhain Ritual

A blessed Samhain to all!

So, Samhain is once again upon us. A time once again for honoring our dead and continuing our internal work to better ourselves. I'm going to be doing a personal ritual tomorrow probably some time around the afternoon. My mother will be at work and my sister will be at her dad's house, so that would be the best time for me. I don't have every single tool some might say I need, but that's ok. The most important magickal tool of all is the one inside your skull. I have a wand and an athame, candles for the Lord and Lady, and for my ancestors. I have items representing the four elements for the quarters. What I can't quite figure out is what I want to say for the quarter calls or for casting and closing the circle itself. For my ancestors, I believe each particular speech will flow when the time is right. I'm not even sure where I'm going to be doing this. I'm planning on doing it at Huntington Beach Central Park in Huntington Beach, CA, but I must acquaint myself with local fire safety laws beforehand.

P.S. Dave of the Pagan Centered Podcast has given me leave to discuss a few topics from the Ask A Pagan forum on my show so, expect a new episode soon! :-D

The Satyr's Thicket Episode 4- Doing it for Teh Lulz

I'm finally back with a new episode everyone! YAY! In this episode, I discuss why I think the lulz are important in life. Seriousness has it's place, but lulz I think are a tad bit more important as you will hear. I also mention something about Australia and Germany and how they both tie in to something that is very dear to my heart, very important to me. Of course there's the usual shout outs to the Crew of PCP and to Aiden Odinson, host of the Secrets In Plain Sight!

Episode 3- Connecting with Deity

In this episode I discuss the importance of connecting with Deity among other things.

Podcasts mentioned in this episode are The Secrets in Plain Sight and PCP: Pagan Centered Podcast

You can find this podcast and podcasts like it at the Proud Pagan Podcasters at www.paganpodcasting.org

Episode 2- Proactive and Prudent

In this episode I discuss the importance of research and action in the pagan community. I also discuss some books I like.

Something I wanted to add that I didn't say in the episode is that when talking with a stranger about religion, I don't have to worry about what they think AS MUCH as my family. I meant to clarify that.

Also I apologize for the terrible audio. Something happened with audacity and windows and I did the best I did to clean it up. It's passable but not great.
