Nimoy, Lit By Grace...

Nimoy Arrives...

For some reason I had a recurring daydream about a crystal skull joining my altar.

Being a self-described "shamanic tech geek," I have named him Nimoy.

Yes, he is named for the actor who played Spock first. \\//_

Nimoy is currently charging under the LED Desk lamp in my office. I also plan to give him some sun as well.

Once the photonic charge is completed, Nimoy will join my raven altar and receive periodic sonic charge from Zing, my Tibetan singing bowl, and also from Thrum, my Autumn drum. 

What I like about Nimoy is his unique set of imperfections and inclusions. There are flecks of Mars orange in his crystal, and many uniquue microfractures.

The bwst is the rainbow mandala he presents when lit.

Santa Claus the Magic Mushroom & the Psychedelic Origins of Christmas – MOOF

Portable Didgideroo Imported From Japan

This is my new digideroo, Digzy. She just came home today.

I'm impressed by the seller.

Now to watch and try learning a ton of Youtube video on learning to play. 

The didgideroo is a truly ancient instrument in its original form. The Alpine horn is very similar and also ancient.

These instruments possess a strong meditative quality when played well.

Wish me luck.

As With All Good Things...

There is always Ebb and flow to the facet of a life.

For me, the Spirit World is never far from mind, yet I rarely get to spend time there. The quandary of modern life is it's ingrained separation from inner life by the daunting business of being busy "making a living."

Still, wonderful things happen on occasion. One such is an amazing project just completed by Nicholas Breeze Wood and his team from Sacred Hoop Magazine. Sacred Hoop's crew has completed a major guide to the basics and nuances of Shamanism, and they are giving it away for free download online.

"The Sacred Hoop Guide to Shamanism...

128 pages of wonderful, Image-rich shamanic information


Available as a completely free pdf download


Or as a Print-on-Demand full colour paperback book

(This is produced at cost price, but actual books unfortunately can not be free)"

You can find it HERE: http://www.sacredhoop.org/Pages/FreeGuide.html

 


  I have read Sacred Hoop for years. It's one of the best magazines out there. Produced in the UK, it's relatively ad-free, and the articles aren't broken up into bits like U.S. Magazines do.

I'm currently reading my copy of the guide, and so far it's excellent.

I hope the Spirits are helpful to you - and that you appreciate the amazing gift Sacred Hoop is giving the world here.

A Knack For Clickety-Clack...

It all goes on in our heads,
If anywhere at all,
You don't need a crystal anything,
Not a ball,
Not a skull,
To know that the mystery of future and history,
Is anything but dull,
But it's easy to forget to track,
We're the ones making it right now,
So keep the gears all meshed and spinning,
It's not a matter of losing or winning,
Put your ink-pen back on track,
Like a freight train,
You need to keep a knack,
For making it roll on clickety-clack.

No wonder that Moonring in the 11th house felt good. That's the house of friendships and social and professional associations, and is ruled by Aquarius, my sign in spades. (I have 5 planets and the Sun in Aquarius.)

With it being well into Taurus, that speaks to me of money and comfort.

I love the energy in that view of the Heavens I saw last night and yesterday morning.

Keep beating the drum,

Reaching Out To Touch The Sky...

There was a large cloud ring around the nearly full Moon about 23:00 CDT in Chicago (60610) this past evening, ( 10/09/2014) the same night as the Blood Moon eclipse at 15 Aries. (That eclipse was early in the morning on 10/09/2014)

The Moon ring was at 9 degrees Taurus in the 11th house at the time, as best I can tell.

I felt really good with that energy following the eclipse for some reason.

Keep beating the drum,

Dan
