The Wicca Book of Days for June 18th – Cunning Connections

The Wicca Book of Days for Monday, June 18

Cunning Connections

 

The Roman God with whom Mercury is equated is significant to Wiccans. Not only was he believed to travel effortlessly, between the reals of the Gods, humans and the dead–and, as the Greek Hermes Trismegistus, to be a master of Magick–Mercury was admired for his cunning, too. Wicca, the old English word for “male witch” (wicce denoted a female witch), whose usage was revived in the twentieth century in reference to the Craft, today also embraces those who, centuries ago, were “cunning person,” that is local wise men and women and healers.

June’s Gems

Agate, pearl and moonstone are June’s birthstones. Agate is said to strengthen health, but the pearl (which the Greeks associated with a happy marriage) and moonstone (which the Romans equated with moonlight) are particularly suited to a month linked with Juno and the moon.

Wishing You A Very Blessed Week To Come, My Dear Friends!

Days Of The Week Comments Good Monday Morning, my dear friends! I am sorry about the weekend. But as you know, my youngest child has moved back in with me. All I can say is, “Drama, Drama, Drama!” And I have talked till I am blue in the face. Still I cannot talk any sense at all into him. I know he is confused but he could listen to someone who has his best interest at heart. I keep hearing, “I am a grown man!” I am about ready to say, “Well, then damn it act like it.” But I am biting my tongue. You know I am seriously beginning to wonder if I got the right kid in the hospital, lol!

 

I ask of you, dear friends, to keep us in your prayers.

 

I picked out the following prayer for all of us parents. I am sure at sometime in our lives, we will find it useful.

 

Prayer Of A Parent

 My Lord and Lady, you are my eternal

parents, and I have a special need to ask

of you. Please make me a better parent. Help me

to understand my children. Help me to be

a parent when a parent is needed, and a

friend when a friend is needed. Help me

to set a good example so I may be a good

teacher for my children, and give me the

patience and wisdom I will need in raising

them.

So Mote It Be.

I hope you have a fantastic week. Don’t work to hard and remember to take time and smell the roses (watch out for the thorns, though). 

Luv & Hugs,

Lady A

Happy & Blessed Saturday To All My Sweet Friends!

Saturday Images, Quotes, Comments, Graphics
Good Saturday Afternoon to you, my Sweets! I hope you are having a very relaxing day. As you can tell I took the morning off. Since the A/C is still on the blink and it was cool (77 degrees), I decided to do some cleaning. Now my little rump is dragging the ground. I finally stopped when I got a heat headache. I came in here and took one of my migraine pills. So my head is starting to ease up. At least the house is clean, lol! But they say it is suppose to stay up in the 90′ to almost a 100 all next week. I done made my mind up this witch can’t take it. I am melting fast. But that is the way my luck goes, everything happens in three’s. Has anyone else noticed that? I have when something tears up I always hold my breath because I never know what’s coming next. In other words, “when it rains, it pours!”

My son is still here. He is such a pleasure to have around. I haven’t seen him since yesterday at 12:00 p.m. He has been working 12 hours a night. He gets home around 3 in the morning. Then on Saturday’s he goes and does dog training at a local kennel. We are all affiliated with vets, kennels, groomers, pound and etc., one way or another. He enjoys it and so do I, we both love animals. I got tickled at him the other night (it seems like my critters are trying to do him in, lol!). He said he had his hand hanging off the bed. He was looking for his Mountain Dew and hit something with a strange coat of fur. He reached for his phone and shown it in that direction.  He told me he liked to have jumped out of bed. There sit Razzy just sitting there staring at him. He told me she had the meanest look on her face and also she was very scary. And he generally isn’t the scared type, either. He wanted to know if I had seen her in the dark. I told him, “of course, all the time silly.” She looks like an angel curled up beside me. He said, “Bullshi&! She is a mean cat.” I told him she remembers that he is the one that brought that dog in. The one that dislocated her shoulder, animals don’t forget. So he shut up and went back to bed around 4 and I was wide awake. Oh! If life would only get back to normal!

I was thinking today since it is so late, what do you say I do something a little different? Put on some info about Crystals, Potions, Tinctures, Bath Salts, some Spells and Rituals? What do you say? Sounds good to me, hee, hee, hee! Of course it would!

Anyway I am going to run and get busy before you all replace me, lol! I hope you have a super Saturday! Stay cool and most of all enjoy!

Herb of the Day for June 15 – Valerian

Valeriana officinalis MEDICINAL:Valerian is a relaxer, and is very effective for insomnia. It is often used as a tranquilizer, but it leaves no sluggish effects on the user. It is used for nervous tension, pain relieving, strengthening the heart, lowering blood pressure, IBS, diverticulosis, menstrual cramps, and for muscle spasms. It should not be taken over a long period of time, as it can cause mental depression in some people after long-term steady use. It is not habit forming.

RELIGIOUS:Valerian is used to get fighting couples back together, in spells of love, and in purification baths.

GROWING: Valerian is a perennial plant that grows to 3 feet tall. It prefers full sun, and average to rich well-drained soil. Root cuttings are best for propogation, and once the plants are established, they self-sow and spread by root runners. Valerian has a similar effect on cats as catnip, so you may need to protect your patch with chicken wire. Harvest roots for medicinal use in the fall of their second year.

Deity of the Day for June 15 – HELIOS

 

by Micha F. Lindemans

Helios is the young Greek god of the sun. He is the son of

Hyperion and Theia. By the Oceanid Perse he became the father of Aeëtes, Circe, and Pasiphae. His other children are Phaethusa (“radiant”) and Lampetia (“shining”) and Phaeton.

Each morning at dawn he rises from the ocean in the east and rides in his chariot, pulled by four horses – Pyrois, Eos, Aethon and Phlegon — through the sky, to descend at night in the west. Helios once allowed Phaeton to guide his chariot across the sky. The unskilled youth could not control the horses and fell towards his death.

The reverence of the sun as a god came from the east to Greece. Helios was worshipped in various places of the Peloponnesos, but especially on Rhodes, where each year gymnastic games were held in his honor. Rhodos was also where the Colossus of Rhodes (the sixth the seven wonders of the ancient world) was built in his honor. This huge statue, measuring 32 meters (100ft), was built in 280 BCE by Charès of Lindos. In the earthquake of 224-223 BCE the statue broke off at the knees. On other places where he was worshipped, there were herds dedicated to him, such as on the island of Thrinacia (occasionally equated with Sicily). Here the companions of Odysseus helped themselves with the sacred animals. People sacrificed oxen, rams, goats, and white horses to Helios.

He was represented as a youth with a halo, standing in a chariot, occasionally with a billowing robe. A metope from the temple of Athena in the Hellenistic Ilium represents him thus. He is also shown on more recent reliefs, concerning the worship of Mithra, such as in the Mithraeum under the St. Prisca at Rome. In early Christian art, Christ is sometimes represented as Helios, such as in a mosaic in Mausoleum M or in the necropolis beneath the St. Peter in Rome.

His attributes are the whip and the globe, and his sacred animals were the cock and the eagle. Helios sees and knows all, and was called upon by witnesses.
