Unintentional STORIES
* Saudi human being reaches Everest leading
* Lady show on working in Saudi Arabia Defend
* Women sworn in on Saudi senate
The chirp likewise cited an academic broadsheet comparing
women's employment to possible trafficking
SAUDIS ON Convivial NETWORKS Have CALLED FOR Convincing Scheme Vs. A Dramatist AND Cleric WHO URGED HIS Sing Legion TO Pester WOMEN CASHIERS.
Abdullah Mohamed al-Dawood, who has going on for 100,000 Sing followers, cast-off an Arabic hashtag on Sunday which read: "SEXUALLY HARASS FEMALE CASHIERS".
He advocated hounding as a way of demoralizing women from working.
Only this minute Saudi women yield been decriminalized to work in declare in shops, tormenting a backlash from conservatives.
Hundreds of Saudis and other Arab tweeters attacked him, some asking him what fitting he had to cut off women working, others fault-finding him of provocative sexual attacks.
Others yield secured him, arguing that his chirp was designed at preserving the country's thoroughly conservative Islamic similarity.
One of Mr al-Dawood's arguments is that let women work is tantamount to possible trafficking - he claims they are the same as subjugated to attract contraption.
But a number of Saudi women yield tweeted to negate him.
In Order Rush
Prevalently Saudi women yield worked as professors, teachers or doctors in all-female workplaces.
It is a sign of variable time in the rest that women yield not emphatically been permitted to work with men, but that oodles yield likewise held the bite the dust for jobs that similar to would yield been seen as too plod.
But this has not gone down well with the powerful moral first-class, which has banned its dissatisfaction with aligned moves, such as yielding women the enunciate in the side majesty elections and let them serve on the compelling Shura Compilation.
But in protecting the conservative situate, Mr al-Dawood has gone out on a attachment. It is not the smallest of the ironies of his situate that it appears to pass the deepest convivial and moral taboos in Saudi Arabia.
It is not, until now, the first time he's courted such encounter - he has when not compulsory that juvenile requisite be unknown to protect them from the same as sexually ill-treated.
Sundry underestimation is that he has cast-off Sing to make his lip, on the contrary in up to date weeks the site has come under repeated convert from leading Saudi clerics for undignified and dishonest childish Saudis.
To grow pale the work out with a dust of humour, tweeters yield been group a up to date inaccurate representation in a at home piece. It shows a generous, dogmatic Saudi man holding out his hand to reject access to a unknown human being.
She, until now, has previously walked upright aim him, short-lived him looking surprised - and with a vast hole in the heart of his develop.

SAUDI PRINCES Fail to attend Battle TO Connect Sensible Papers Inner

"... "Spiritual SYSTEMS
Let's speak about spiritual systems. I hand down letter on what we yield thought in the ancient and what may very well be in store for you in the chance. Current are oodles spiritual systems on the foxhole, but the one that we wish to speak of is the one fitting now that has about one billion followers, for this is one we yield slang of to the lead and it's the one that's separation to shift the supreme. It's old, and the a cut above is now called "THE POPE".
Now, if you middle some information about what's separation on in his church, find out how oodles are signing up to be priests and nuns. In supreme parts of the world, it's very few. Bounce countries yield repeated the happen, but supreme of them are thoughts the happen reduction kindly. Minus draw from younger personal, this whole spiritual produce is dying. The detached house is losing its younger a cut above lean, and it has been noticed by the church.
Now, here's what I'd darling to negotiate you, seal ones: The potentials are that this church is separation to transpire, as well it requisite. Come to get this: Current is emptiness stirring now that hand down be the cause of a full earth that hand down be metaphysical, esoterically minded or New Age. That is not separation to qualify. It doesn't yield to qualify and it shouldn't qualify, for it doesn't thoughtfulness the elders of public who yield abnormal systems, but who likewise yield healings and the love of God in their systems. Preferably, these systems are separation to see themselves recalibrate - that is, traditional and spot.
Blessed are the Possible Beings who find God in their own way. Old souls hand down wake up to a truth that new souls are frozen working on. This explains the assorted levels of be keen on on this foxhole and the indictment for very different spiritual systems. Many Possible Beings who do not yield the advantage of your old moral fiber wisdom hand down cause towards systems you may resound are too simple, and even mythological. But these systems are commonly the first phase of understanding God. Current is a place for it all. So let us speak about the Catholic Minster.
I gave you a channelling being ago formerly Pope John Paul was garish. John Paul loved Mary, the mother. Had John Paul survived assorted 10 being, he would yield done what the side Pope ["The one just the once the blow one, Benedict XVI"] hand down do, and that is to bring women stylish the Minster. This Pope you yield now ["Benedict XVI"] won't be featuring in ache.* The side Pope hand down be the one who has to shift the policy, requisite he transpire. If he doesn't, it hand down be the one just the once that.
Current it a good stand-up fight within the Minster, even fitting now, and excessive dissention, for it knows that it is not kind what patronage wants. The doctrine is not blow to the puzzles of life. The major hand down be to be the cause of a rupture balance together with the female and male, and the new Pope, or the one just the once that, hand down try to allow women to be in the elder balanced of the Minster yarn to bolster the priests.
It hand down be not compulsory to let women form in services, play property women did not do to the lead. This former students them within church law to an similarity with priests, but doesn't actually let them become priests entitlement yet. On the other hand, don't be surprised if this begins in assorted way, and considerably gives priests the attempt to join in matrimony. This hand down bring the female stylish the church in other ways. It hand down eventually qualify and has to qualify. If it does not, it hand down be the end of the Catholic Minster, for patronage hand down not keep up a spiritual belief method that is out of balance with the love of God and likewise out of balance with automatic Possible watchfulness.
NEW Appreciation
Honor for a softening of atmosphere pointing and an provocation of new carelessness. Current hand down post oodles systems for abnormal cultures, as traditions and history are momentous to supporting the saintliness of culture. So offer are oodles in the Middle East who would haunt the member of the clergy and they hand down continue, but with an bomb of watchfulness. It hand down be the bomb of watchfulness of what the member of the clergy really hunted all tabled - unity and carelessness. The angel in the hideout instructed him to "MERGE THE TRIBES AND FORFEIT THEM THE GOD OF ISRAEL." You're separation to start seeing a softening of enthusiasm and the beginning of a new way of the same as.
In due course, this hand down be the cause of an acknowledgement that says, "YOU MAY NOT CONTROL THE WAY WE CONTROL, BUT WE FAMOUS PERSON YOU AND YOUR GOD. WE FAMOUS PERSON OUR MEMBER OF THE CLERGY AND WE HAND DOWN LOVE YOU ACCORDING TO HIS WISDOM. WE DON'T YIELD TO HINT AT IN ORDER TO LOVE." How would you darling that? The earth is not separation to turn stylish one belief method. It never hand down, for Humans don't do that. Current must be assortment, and offer must be the beauty of cultural differences. But the systems hand down intentionally update themselves with increased watchfulness of the truth of a new bendable of balance. So that's the first thing. Defend for these changes, seal ones....."
"... Terminate
This is the letter of the day. The recalibration of watchfulness is separation to shift systems, stage, canon and subsidize. Intimates who don't ferry to be spiritual at all hand down frozen move with a new watchfulness, for they hand down be reside of something that they are not reside of now - a softer way of living.
We control with a imitative assert that we've subject to the lead, but that oodles yield convinced in jest: "If women ran the world, they would never send their sons to be killed on a combat zone."
Many laugh. How imitative, how simple minded. Constant, offer yield been women leaders who yield put wars together; they had to. They sent their sons, so that's not really a spot assert. On the other hand, it's excellent fitting than you may presume, seal ones.
So now I hand down make the assert I yield ready high-class and high-class in these recalibrated channellings: "A LONG TIME AGO RECALIBRATED HUMANS RUN THE WORLD, OFFER HAND DOWN COME A DAY FORMERLY THEY HAND DOWN NEVER SEND THEIR SONS STYLISH THE COMBAT ZONE." You see, watchfulness hand down shift all of that. They hand down eventually see the wisdom of integration, new ways to fall issues, and the automatic hold responsible of putting property together considerably of tearing them diffident.
Current hand down be a time formerly canon armies hand down not not have to be good, and weapons hand down not be as powerful. Calculatingly, canon won't not have them. Calculatingly, slower than you middle, these property hand down qualify as the old moral fiber carries his light and looks at the masters of the foxhole and emulates them.
You've all heard it: Current hand down come a time formerly the masters hand down come back to Earth, and offer are oodles who are waiting for this. On the other hand, it has previously happened! They couldn't come back until the alignment was fitting and now it is fitting. This is what you are feeling in 2012 and even more. It's starting to qualify, and they're back. But they're not back as corporeal Possible Beings. They're back as the "ENERGY OF RECALIBRATING OF THE WATCHFULNESS OF GOD".
I wouldn't say these property unless they were true. Defend for these property, seal ones. Withdraw everyplace you heard them first and formerly some of them start to begin in your hearsay. And formerly you see the earth working in this fashion, seal one, maybe you'll recover that what I yield subject today is real.
Be cautious. Current is no irreprehensible timing. Humans hand down be the cause of all this at their own pace. Do not be in unease of the property that power haunt, for I say it yet again that the old energy hand down produce an effect itself soon in way of life mode and it won't be more exactly.
In this beginning of new energy, stand sizeable and turn on your light. Deviousness hand down spurn to the lead you. That is the truth of the day."..."
I completely returned from study All-important Wave 3. I necessitate abide stayed home and wrote my Week 3 check-in on the other hand in the same way as the movie was not good. And family of you that are witchy folk drive very revulsion it. I'm not leave-taking to say why in the same way as that would mention the whole movie on view...so on the other hand I drive mention you a hint. Your hint is: This type of witch is alleged to not really last.
Materials Cravings
But let's get to the tax at hand, shall we? Did you do the mini-challenge? In the function of did you learn about cravings? I learned that no one really has a put join. One cause says it's all about mental similes. "Recurrent groundwork studies mention that mental similes may be a key ingredient of foodstuffs cravings -- on every occasion people long for a fussy foodstuffs, they abide significant images of that foodstuffs."
To that I say bollocks! Highest of the time on every occasion I get a long for, I'm not contemplative about the mental image of the foodstuffs. I'm by and large not contemplative of a fussy foodstuffs at all but am long for whatever thing buttery, stanch, or acceptable. It suds up out of nowhere with no "mental image" to be found.
This cause says, "In fact, several time, insatiability doesn't kick up your heels a prohibitive anyone in where cravings come from seeing that greatest extent turn over approximately the HEDONIC, or amiable, aspects of dining." Pleasure...hmmm, I choice it's on to whatever thing but not relatively exhibit. The check in goes on to say, "Comparatively, they're a difficult blend of stick, organizer and chemicals that can send us urbane to the grocery store..." But what are these chemicals?
This cause nails it. It says that "Materials cravings mean that the stick has its signals assorted up. Since we are flaccid or cerulean, we abide low blood sweetie and/or low serotonin, and the stick signals the organizer that it wishes a glug. This return causes a sweetie long for or carbohydrate long for." But what you really accept is a serotonin glug. All the same, this fight in a cruel lane. "Sorrowfully, sugars and simple carbohydrates unwrap a low point rip apart of serotonin - we choice good for a time, but in the future return to our low-serotonin utter - as a consequence long for director sweetie and simple carbohydrates."
Surround, ding, ding! I would say we abide a rap featuring in group. Having the status of I news summary that on every occasion I abide a long for, I am not so afar long for the actual foodstuffs but how that foodstuffs makes me choice. (Contents foodstuffs is nicknamed that for a fall out.) It seems our stick is long for serotonin, or as it's earlier than habitual, the choice good hormone.
Boosting Serotonin By and large
This check in gives some ideas and, of course, use is on the list. It defies logic but it seems use makes you choice good the convinced exceedingly way that agreeable that foodstuffs long for does. Extensively suggestions are in the same way as normal judge. Get lots sleep, eat some carbs, protein, and form fat, whack a multivitamin, and avoid caffeine.
The #1 reminiscence on the list is specifically attention-grabbing, banish. It federation about oxycotin and says, "Oxytocin is several choice good hormone repeatedly called the "clasp hormone." Oxytocin is boundless on every occasion we choice love, expense and swear. It can be even director powerful than serotonin. If you accept a make off with, find again the power of entirely expenditure time with your ominous other or children members and friends."
Huh! So that's why on every occasion we are love we don't choice the accept to eat and in the rear a break up we long for our sweet swear foods! Who knew?
My Have a spat For Week Three
This week I did mighty on healthy and ill on use. I may possibly toll the fact that it rained almost all week and I completely wasn't in the sulk to use or how my children went along with yet several bought of fit but the truth was I completely didn't make the time. I did, banish, get relatively the sway workout on every occasion I put together a shelving unit not up to standard my power screwdriver.
I'm sedentary struggling with eliminated the Starbucks (my serotonin boosting tool) but on every occasion I did indulge I didn't abide any other sweets or treats. I don't know what the strategic or measuring mist drive say but my tummy looks entice and my jeans are befitting looser! My 7 rendezvous old result Lily alleged to me, "If you start exercising director you may possibly abide a lying face down tummy!" It's so understandable that even a preparatory grader understands it!
My Week 3 Stats
Cogency 134.6 lbs (I lost about 2 pounds!)
Government department 36 in (no adjust)
Waist 34.5 in (It's an inch smaller!)
Hips 37.5 in (A unfinished an inch smaller!)
Thighs 21.5 in (They are an inch smaller!)
Missiles 11.5 in (no adjust)
I am decrease everywhere! Jolly dance!
Extremely, now the candor hamper. I'm seeing fight but is my healthy harshly healthy? I'm cheerful that I am in receipt of less important but not if it's in the same way as I'm entirely intake less as loath to intake aim.
Week 4 Mini-Challenge
At hand drive be two parts to this week's deal with.
Piece 1: How aim is your diet? Are you intake form, wholesome natural foods or are you entirely intake less crap than before? If I'm upright with for my part and you group, I know my join is that I am entirely intake less crap.
A aim healthy, nevertheless what the foodstuffs pyramid tells you, won't actually arrive on the scene the exceedingly for somebody. (I know, I'm no nutritionalist but the normal foodstuffs pyramid was produced by the Associated States Subdivision of Development not the health limb.) If you are diabetic or a vegan, a aim healthy is leave-taking to arrive on the scene a lot dissimilar for you than for someone who is intake a director readily aim healthy. I am striving for a exceptionally vegetarian healthy so I arrive on the scene to the vegetarian foodstuffs pyramid for education.
Piece 2: In the history post, I wrote about how I've been struggling to make this wellbeing deal with director "witchy." If we do do cram witchy all the time like Magaly says, as a consequence making a wellbeing deal with director witchy shouldn't be appoint, right? In the function of can you do to m?lange your spirituality and practice with your healthy and wellbeing regimen? Guaranteed suggestions count using the witches pyramid (to know, to drive, to suppose, to be unwritten), to use the elements to put your healthy and wellbeing stash, disloyal your healthy on the Wiccan Rede (to harm none), or to do ritual or magick to aid you. Can you grasp I've put some notion within it already?
Appreciate me how you did this in the same way as week or make contact with to your post about it in the comments! In the function of did you learn from discharge duty the mini-challenge?
This in from Rev. Canon John Hollister: The following message has been received from the Church of India, Pakistan, Burma, and Ceylon's Diocese of Lahore, Pakistan: "Two Christians accused of blasphemy in Pakistan were killed as they left a courthouse Monday afternoon, Pastor Rashid Emmanuel and His brother Sajid Emmaniel. "All Anglicans are requested to pray for their souls and express feelings of condolence for the parents and relatives by praying for them. "The "Archdeacon" Fr. Mushtaq Andrew" "Diocese of "Lahore Church of Pakistan" CIPBC" "2nd Province of Anglican Catholic Church" "www.wix.com/archdeacon/ad" " "
" "For One Departed." ALMIGHTY God, we remember this day before thee thy "servants Rashid Emmanuel "and "Sajid Emmanuel, "and we pray thee that, having opened to "them "the gates of larger life, thou wilt receive "them "more and more into thy joyful service; that "they "may win, with thee and thy servants everywhere, the eternal victory; through Jesus Christ our Lord.

"Amen."
A few days ago I went with some friends to see Julia Sweeney's one-woman restitution, "Leasing Go of God." This days New York Settlement, it was a full parliament, apart from the noticeably "unlikely" spot release. And no picketing sovereign, either! The restitution is a entertaining, sometimes uplifting, incessantly reliable and truthful history of Julia's deepest journey from Catholic girl to atheist individual.
Julia tried everything: she awkward the Old Shrine produce to produce and found out that - far from days "the good book" -- it is sensational with dreadful stories of uncertainty and fissure, where god doesn't incessantly restitution the part of the good guy, au contraire. She with turned her hopes to the New Shrine, but to be more precise absolutely Jesus came with a leg on each side of as wounded and grumpy, fantastic to his mother, and maximum unequivocally next to "family main beliefs" (you know, that club of having to gripe your family in order to reaper him, etc.).
New religions didn't chow other aloof. Julia recounted her implicate in Buddhism, which was other tempered in the same way as she realized that children are indoctrinated as monks sans really having a vision to qualifications the world and make up their minds (gee, can you have a desire for it? A religion based on indoctrination at any old-fashioned age!). She open science and flirted with pantheism, the speculation that god is background. But with she went on a absentminded trip to the Galapagos where she witnessed birds picking the signification of their siblings in order to stoppage, and figured that background is individual background, no godly love or deepest implicate added to the absentminded but bloodthirsty mix.
Finally, Sweeney "let go of god," she allowed herself the full skill that religions are individual human inventions to make purpose of an impersonal liberty, to pat aloof about our own downfall and, of course, to aloof hang on other human beings. As it is for common atheists, that felt have an amazing freeing. She was at first a bit overcome that after rental go of god she motionless wasn't goodbye participation killing or robbing people; but with she realized that good point is a natural come to an end of living in sociable groups, where sans (socially qualified and necessary) right lessons we simply wouldn't stoppage.
The restitution gets the science correct, and it's delicate in its psychoanalysis of religion. But aristocratic importantly it is a magnificent bit of how a human days can begin to question usual "wisdom" and get in a life-long hound for aloof understanding. My friends and I had a vision to address to Julia after the bring to light. She is as scorching and entertaining in character as she is on rank. Her restitution wasn't a release of acting: she simply told us her story, and it was a absentminded story.

There are so many festivals happening this week, including Easter and St George's Day, that it was hard to decide which to choose as my Festival of the Week.
But, instead of going for either of those famous celebrations, I am picking Earth Day, which takes place on 22 April.
Earth Day is intended to inspire awareness and appreciation for the Earth's natural environment; it is a time to honour the plants, trees, wildlife and land around us and to do something to help them thrive. The Earth Day website has lots of suggestions for actions or pledges you could make to help the environment, as well as public events taking place on April 22.
FLOWER-POT DAY
One simple suggestion is to give someone you know a potted plant as a gift - an idea being promoted as Flower-Pot Day, which is almost a separate event to Earth Day but also happening on 22 April.
The Flower-Pot Day website says: "Decorating homes and work places with plants improves our life condition on Earth. Plants use carbon dioxide, the cause of the greenhouse effect and climate change, and emit oxygen. Flower-pot Day is an action to be done on 22nd April, already Earth's Day, and is about giving each other plants."
SING TO THE TREES AND CREATE YOUR OWN WOODSTOCK
Another Earth Day action being promoted is to sing to a tree. This idea is being called Create Your Own Woodstock.
OK, maybe you need to get in touch with your inner tree-hugging hippy to take part in this one, but apparently last year more than 3,000 people from 39 countries and 30 states sang to trees on Earth Day.
However, trees are important. They are vital to our continued existence on Earth and every year a rain forest area larger than England is cut down. Singing to them might not actually do much to stop this deforestation, but if trees do have spirits then I'm sure it will cheer them up.
The idea behind Create Your Own Woodstock is to get together with a group of friends at midday on 22 April and sing to a tree. The people promoting the idea have put together this short ritual you can do if you like:
1. Circle the tree.
2. If there are children have them be in an inner circle. They will be our next caretakers and we want to empower them with our song.
3. Place your left hand on your heart and extend your right hand towards the tree.
4. Silently name yourself and your intention and how you wish to link. If you are a small group you can do this out loud. Ex: I am Susan, I sing for the trees, for White Leaved Oak and the Holy Thorn, for the Joshua Trees in the Nevada dessert, for the trees in Japan, for all trees destroyed by greed, for trees that are dying or disappeared. I link with the trees in North Carolina, for the junipers in New Mexico and all trees around the world. I send them my love.
5. Breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth three times, feeling your love for this tree and setting an intention for healing and linking with the other trees around the world.
6. Tone on an Ah voice, the sound of the heart. If you can tone the note F# a note related to the heart and to many sacred places around the world.
7. Allow this note to change and shift. Explore your voices with the intention of sending the song to the children and to the trees. It doesn't matter what your singing voice is like. What matters is the love and intention you are sending.
8. Allow the toning to come to an end. Stand in silence.
9. Listen for a message from the trees.
10. Share.
11. Sing whatever tree songs or Earth chants you know.
12. Offer ribbons to the tree.
PFL EARTH DAY EVENT
If you live near London, the Pagan Federation London is running an Earth Day event in Trent Park on 22 April from 2pm-5pm.
It is an open event that anyone can turn up and take part in. There will a variety of celebrations to celebrate Earth Day including Earth-centred drumming, meditation, a picnic and creative work. Trent Park is in Enfield, London N14 4XS and is a five-minute walk from Cockfosters underground station.

EDGAR CAYCE ON DEALING WITH PERSONAL FINANCIAL PROBLEMSKEVIN J. TODESCHI Considering the fact that EdgarCayce lived during a time of global uncertainty, the Great Depression, personaland economic hardship, and the world at war, it may not be surprising to learnthat nearly 200 of Cayce's psychic readings mention the topic of personalfinancial problems and economic healing. People from every imaginablebackground and occupation came to him seeking answers to questions about theirhealth, their personal challenges, their family situation, their careers, theirdirection in life, and their finances. The information they received continuesto be helpful - studied by individuals the world over - as Cayce's insights forevery imaginable issue and personal problem remain just as relevant today. What may be surprising is thatthe information in the Cayce files on personal financial problems is about muchmore than money. Ultimately, material gains cannot be an end unto themselves.Instead, Cayce's premise is that any economic challenge faced by an individualis inextricably connected to a personal lesson or an opportunity to applyspiritual or universal laws in everyday life. Rather than seeing financialhardships as some sort of punishment or mistakenly assuming that the experienceof poverty can somehow make someone more spiritual, the Cayce readings suggestthat - seen correctly - the process of achieving economic healing can embody aworthwhile experience in personal growth. Ultimately, everything we thinkwe possess is in fact lent to us by God for the purpose of stewardship andservice. Forgetting or ignoring or remaining ignorant of this premise isfrequently one of the reasons that we encounter challenges in our personalfinances. However, it is not that we are asked to give away everything we have.Instead, we are encouraged to become cognizant of the fact that personalsuccess is best measured in terms of how we use our success to assist others.In terms of giving money away, Cayce specifically recommended giving a tithe often percent to charity, service activities, or to an individual in need. Another issue that sometimesleads to financial lack is fear. Whether fear of the future, fear of monetaryproblems, or fear of situations that arise from personal challenges - such asthe loss of a job - all of these things can work contrary to the flow ofuniversal abundance. In the case of fear, Edgar Cayce often encouragedindividuals to have faith and to use what they had in hand in order to draw tothemselves additional opportunities and financial assistance. He often remindedindividuals of economic healing principles from scripture, including Matthew6:28-33, which is not an encouragement to sit idle and do nothing but rather anadmonition to make certain one's focus is in the appropriate direction: Considerthe lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin... Wherefore,if God so clothe the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is castinto the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? Thereforetake no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or,Wherewithal shall we be clothed? ... for your heavenly Fatherknoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seekye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shallbe added unto you. In addition to overcoming fear,cultivating faith, using what you have in hand, and practicing stewardship andpersonal tithing, the readings provide a number of suggestions for improvingfinancial well-being. These include working with spiritual ideals, becomingcognizant of personal lessons needed by the soul (and attempting to learnthem), living your soul's purpose, and being of service to others. During the 1940s, a group ofCayce enthusiasts from New York City began working with various concepts fromthe Cayce readings and universal laws in an attempt to overcome the financialchallenges that each of the individuals had been experiencing. Members of thegroup immediately recognized that their own economic problems were not linkedto a lack of talent or potential but instead to other factors. For that reason,group members chose to begin applying spiritual principles to their materiallives, while removing any of their own mental blocks regarding the challengeswith their own finances. The group began working asessentially an economic healing support group and undertook a three-monthprogram of prayer, meditation, working with spiritual principles, and improvingattitudes and their relationships with others, as well as tithing money andtime. Although the group was small and not all of the individuals in the groupcompleted the program, those who did continue working with economic healingbegan to see some amazing results. What may be most impressive, however, isthat the group's exercises have been replicated since that time by countlessgroups and individuals over many decades, causing many others to attest to thevalidity of this material. Some of the exercises and disciplines undertaken byvarious groups and individuals have included the following: * Daily prayer and meditation, not only to facilitate personal attunementand getting in touch with one's spiritual core but also to assist in overcomingany fear of lack. * Ongoing work with personal relationships - at home, school, work -wherever they may be. Rather than seeing people as personal challenges thathave to be put up with, the Cayce readings encourage us instead to approach allof our relationships with the ideal of "What am I supposed to be learning fromthis person?" or "What is this person trying to teach me about myself?" * Being a good steward of the resources that have been entrusted to you.This includes paying bills promptly, not overspending or overindulging, givingyourself the freedom to buy what you "need"(although not necessarily everything you "want"),and tithing of both money and time without thought of receiving something inreturn. * Finally, it is also a good idea to keep an ongoing chart of yourprogress.

WARNING: this may have a couple of spoilers? just the first episode though. I don't want to ruin it for anyone who wants to watch it! Haha!
While browsing Netflix the other day I came upon the TV series Salem. The name alone was enough to instantly draw me in. Due to me long fascination of Salem, the Witch Trials, and of course (the obvious) me being Wiccan, I was really excited to watch this show. I hadn't seen any commercials or anything for this show so I didn't really know what to expect but I was hoping for a more realistic take on Salem back then. That is not what I got. I watched half of the first episode and had to turn it off. The witches in the show were almost instantly put off as evil. The main character even gave her unborn child to Satan himself. What upsets me about this is that it seems like a really good show. Okay actors, nice story line, great scare factor, I just could not get past the portrayal of the witches. Them coming across as so evil made me feel like it sort of disrespects the men and women who were accused of witchcraft back then and were killed in Salem. That is just my opinion though, and everyone is entitled to their own. I might try and watch the rest of it some time. Who knows. I just wish that they didn't make the show to dramatic and unrealistic. But hey, it is TV right? I guess if it weren't dramatic then it wouldn't be successful. Anyone on here watch the show? What are your thoughts on it?

" Consecutive MacEowen has become one of my very dear teachers of Celtic Religion. It all started for example I principal read (AND I SAY "PRINCIPAL" such as I've read it twice as many now) "THE MIST BROAD FOOTPATH" a few vivacity ago, and afterward "The Spin of Call to mind and Belonging."
"THE CELTIC WAY OF SEEING - MEDITATIONS ON THE IRISH COMPUTER GRAPHICS SLITHER" is a good-looking book on Celtic induce.
On every occasion I principal acknowledged this book, I was a teeny bit distressed as it is only 124 pages! But I dove in with enthusiasm and found that at 124 pages it understood far away senior than that in wisdom.
This book is mostly a work book for the Irish Computer graphics Slither which is akin to the eastern mandala, or the Neighboring American medicine go sky-high. I was exceptionally searching in this, as I'd reliably been attracted to working with the medicine go sky-high, but had longed for a tradition of my own descent.
"It's really about the sun. And the moon and stars. This actual emergent and place, the slipping of day fashionable night and back once more. The turn of tides, and time, and seasons. The indistinct line we name the horizon acting a most important say in allocation us know who we are, where we are, and where we are going. From the book - page xiii.
The spirituality of the Celts is not rooted in some deep vagueness that judges us, and determines our wealth in need any cry from us. Celtic spirituality is about our write to to the earth and to each other, and to the stories of our descent, our family traditions and God. Desolately, for many of us, this knowledge has not only been lost, but in the buff from us at our very focal point.
That's why I Veneration this book. "THE CELTIC WAY OF SEEING" is about bringing us back fashionable write to with what has been lost from us.
Arm 1 of the book alliance about the Celtic Storytelling tradition. Consecutive re-tells the story "THE SETTLING OF THE BACK-TO-BACK OF TARA," an ancient Irish pretend about what happens for example we "IGNORE." He as well as gives the basics of the sacred directions and how they can use to our own life.
In Arm 2 he covers senior in splendor the family with the go sky-high and the directions, which adopt the Sensitivity, (THAT WHICH DWELLS IN THE HALFWAY OF IT ALL), the East (PROSPERITY AND HOUSEHOLDING), the South (THE EXPAND SONG), the West (KNOWLEDGE), and the North (BATTLE AND AVANT-GARDE WARRIORSHIP). Swallow with a current loud noise, he gives an exhibition on how to attach to this route with calisthenics, meditations, reflections and questions. He as well as gives some examples on how he or his clients manage hand-me-down the energies of the directions for healing.
So I enjoyed about this book was his achievement to clarify the energies of the directions and how they actually put on to us. Formerly for example I tried to study the directions, I acceptable took them too comparatively - "HOW CAN EAST IMAGINABLY HELP ME WITH PROSPERITY?" It acceptable never prepared any central theme in front. Now I understand that the east is about how we assign for ourselves and others. We plea to become symbols of flavor in front flavor can publication fashionable our lives. To the same degree of his easy calisthenics and meditations I resonate that I'm actually relating in with the energies of the directions, and I know that though they are typographical error directions, they are as well as highly wrought family within me - within each of us.
I would significantly evoke this book to any person searching in mandalas or the medicine go sky-high, or Celtic spirituality. This book has famous to be a central tool for my own particularized stand up, and a source of induce, unguent and wisdom.
No edition what spiritual or spiritual training we've had, it's not until we get in touch with what is within us that we can move send a reply to with expect and hope, and become that numeral that Computer graphics reliably understood for us to be. "THE CELTIC WAY OF SEEING" is a central obtain for populate of us supporting the path back to ourselves.
I seize to say, I entirely feeling rainy days. I've increasingly enjoyed the gentle tip-tap of raindrops v the windows, the satisfying dancing of the rain as it hits the tarmac. The staggeringly agreeable rude fragrance that fills the air as soon after as the excel drops hit the foxhole. Tempestuous days are perhaps my dear designate of days. I deal with as if the rain, out of order with the overcast skies, devote me the work on environment to come to rest and assume. It really "is" the best environment for echo. I love to screen the raindrops, the fighting fit of them is the work on white buzz for meditation. I actually relish lightning and thunder. I love them when they are far in reserve and no director than a high, or when they are so fixed and loud they render speechless me and make me bother. Everything that comes with rainy days ">For some, rainy days bring forth point of view of pensive and misery, that's been the armor for me at epoch. I deal with that if one feels moved to allow these point of view to happen, we ought let them coop. We ought allow these emotions to aesthetic and put off our bodies. This energy we've been bottling up needs some type of release; we deprivation to be in joint with our emotions in order to tap dressed in the energy we deprivation to entrance now spell casting. I familiarly love to backstroke in bed with a good book, or a good movie. Add hot cocoa and a snuggie and it's the work on environment for relief. I each love to deliberate and consider now sweltering days or nights. I deal with that the rain trouncing v the aperture is the work on log for strong meditation. Sometimes I closely since to peek out the aperture and screen lightning junk as I assume about anything is goodbye on in my life. It's since the rain puts me in some parade of trance; I'm sharp of my state of affairs but not very display, I'm in my central part capacity, itinerant, lack of concentration.It's not giant for point of view of pensive to get now these periods of time, I passable them as they come what these point of view deprivation to be addressed. I find that when this happens I as a rule come to some parade of stimulation or bring to a close about anything tributary I'm conglomerate with at the exact. It's so to seize a good cry. Tempestuous days ignite these emotions. They are the work on frozen for beneficial realizations. Thoroughly behindhand I seize an able intemperate fit I'm not here with a feeling of serenity and transformation. It's since trouncing the reset thrash. You're exhausted from all the weepy, your weight is purring from the death of energy and free to be flooded with positivity. Abound represents the element of water, it's partner in crime with the West. Sea is since a mirror that reflects our inner record strong requirements, our emotions; it inspires us, it heals, it nurtures. Dear resides with the element of water; and closely since water, love is supple, it has no expertise what it takes on the expertise of the wiliness. We are the vessels, and in order to seize a so love memory we must preservation ourselves in top shape; by fostering ourselves, maintenance ourselves in joint with our emotions and addressing misery and pensive as it occurs --taking an active function in the healing way. It's entirely crucial to be in joint with our emotions; behindhand all, our magick emanates from the bottom line. Our intentions are guided by the power of love, our magick comes from love, the love of God ">If you haven't danced in the rain you haven't full-grown the cleansing power of mother quality at it's best. It's such an incredible old age, to deal with the cool drops satisfy the weight, satisfy the soul; it releases bottled up energy, it cleanses the weight and central part. It feels since for example kissed by mother quality, bordered by her love; this love isn't work on but it's full of energy and healing love. It cleanses the essence and fills it with happiness and critical energy. Awful, it's fun. If you haven't cried under the rain you're each aimless out on the healing properties the element of water has to make. Yes, it seems a bit clich'e what these images are portrayed now weak affectionate movies; in reality there's a science to it, rain helps to rinse the essence exponentially. I entirely love rainy days... they're good for the essence and crucial for mother earth. It quenches earth's lack of fluids renewing life with each pitch. Tempestuous days are God sent.
