What would you most like to see changed in the world?

Posted on Oct 7th, 2009 by Phoenix : Reborn and Complete Phoenix
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for October 07, 2009:

While the list of what I would like to change is long - tonight my mind is focused upon the planned NASA bombing of the moon.
I am not a Scientist, but I am concerned about an endeavor that could have impact upon so many people on our planet.
Let me begin with the amount of money that is spent on a mission - which could be spend in so many different ways. People need to be fed, educated, the damage we have done to our planet has to be fixed - the list of possible spending of this money in a more constructive way is endless.
Then there is the fact that we are not sure of the exact impact this bombing will have upon the moon, its orbit or any other possible effects that might result. Unless there would be an absolute guarantee that nothing can go wrong, I think messing with the moon is just not a good idea.
The other fact, that many religious paths are connected with the moon, and to which she is sacred is also an aspect that disturbs me, especially as a Wiccan Witch.
In any case, this bit of news really upset me.
Here is the link to a blog that has more info on what NASA has planned:

The following prayer is written by Moonwillow

Silver Lady, nestling in the midnight sky,
shine your ageless wisdom upon our souls.
Guide us and nourish our spirits with your mysteries
So that we may flourish and grow under your beauty.
Our Goddess of Light, send us the truth we so desire
And let us bathe in your silver aura.
Cleanse our body in your purifying light
And uplift our minds with your magic and majesty
So shall we honor you with our hearts
And forever follow your illuminated path
To the center of our soul.

So mote it be!

Many blessings!

What's the most soothing or calming music you know?

Posted on Oct 13th, 2009 by Phoenix : Reborn and Complete Phoenix
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for October 08, 2009:

Soothing and calming sounds to me are the sounds of nature - music, vocals and compositions made by people are what I seek out for different emotional respondses, such as inspiration, motivation or lifting up.
One person I can count on for that is Josh Groban. I think his voice is just breathtaking.
But currently, the emotional responds I am seeking is more that of moving forward, overcomming hurdles and answering questions. Therefore one of my favorite songs on my playlist is currently "Let Me Be Myself" by 3 Doors Down. (Yes the one from the Geico comercial).

Gaia,
dear Goddess, we have done so much to damage you,
our carelessness hurting the only home we have.
For that we ask your forgiveness.

As you accept our apology, we offer now
our changed attitude,
our love
our healing energy
and our solidarity as people
so that we may undo which we have already done
make aware those who need to learn
and guarantee that the same mistake of our past will never be repeated again.

So mote it be
And it is so.

I choose.....

Posted on Oct 16th, 2009 by Phoenix : Reborn and Complete Phoenix
I choose to invite only positive energy into my life.
I choose to disconnect from that which does not serve me, or my family, or my community and the world.
I choose to embrace that which is good, by spreading the news about that.
I choose to make positive emotions, respondses and expressions my path.
I choose to define myself and others in all postive ways possible, as I am aware of the power of the word.
I choose to make amends and give retribution to those I have done wrong - in action, thought and word.
I choose to elminate out my vocabulary, that which invite conflict.
I choose to see the connection in All-There-Is.

Blessed Be!

How do you define power?

Posted on Oct 25th, 2009 by Phoenix : Reborn and Complete Phoenix
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for October 24, 2009:

Magick - the ability to regognize, create and direct magick
I am not only talking about the magick that people associate with the Craft from the outside in, I am talking about the power to see the magick in each moment, in the hugs of a child, the love in the eyes of ones spouse, the prayer uttered to aid people half-way accross the world. It is the magick of saying what needs to be said, when others are afraid to. It is also the magick of finding comfort by sitting under a large, beautiful tree, or overlooking the vast oceans.
Using that which is right in front of you, honoring it, directing it to make a better world for all of us to me is power, and that power is magick.

Blessed Be!
