Silk Threads

Look within yourself and see the silence of eternity.

There is nothing else!

We are each one of us alone;

And all that binds us in the end is love,

Or compassion - call it what you will!

I will find my loneliness in you

And be no longer lonely.

Let it be!

My inner silence,

My eternity.

A bridge to you and all the others,

Only through this gentle web,

Spun of the finest silk

And from my heart!

In praise of older women – no thank you!

Robert Graves (Th e White Goddess ) and the neo-pagans have a lot to answer for with their triple Goddess. We seem to have imbibed that whole "maiden-mother-crone" schema. It brings us all those stereotypes that I believe are best avoided – the girl who must be beautiful, the woman who must be a mother and, after a certain age, all that is left to us is our wisdom! These are gender roles that have existed for thousands of years! I tell you now, I don’t intend to be a crone – even one honoured for her wisdom!

Brigit’s multiplicity implies that she is a master of many arts – all valuable. Having said that, I am getting very tired of having...

Or maybe you were trying to make a decision, but the question you asked only confused you more. Whatever the case may be, asking the wrong question can be a costly mistake. It can waste your time, lead you down the wrong path, and ultimately prevent you from achieving your goals. So how can you avoid asking the wrong question? Here are a few tips: 1.

Peacocks are Magical

Peacocks are Magical Peacocks are beautiful birds with stunning plumage that has been admired for centuries. They are also associated with some very special, mythological and spiritual meanings. In Greek mythology, the peacock was sacred to Hera, the queen of the gods.  Hera was known for her vanity, and she was said to have been given the peacock by Zeus as a gift. The peacock's tail feathers were said to represent Hera's eyes, and they were also seen as a symbol of immortality.

The peacock's tail feathers are also said to represent the petals of a lotus flower, which is a symbol of enlightenment.
