Just enjoying the Cherry Blossoms

Be sure to check out the article about Beltane in the Witches Sabbats section!

Recommended web-site of the week

This week I want to recommend Llewellyn Worldwide. This is a great site that I've mentioned to you all a couple of times before. This site contains SO MUCH knowledge, and so many useful resources it is def. worth your time to check it out, find Articles, rituals, products and much more. http://www.llewellyn.com/index.php

Recommended read of the week

My recommended read is , "The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Dreams" by by Anna Fornari was published in 1988. Yes, this is not exactly a new book. I got my copy from a used book warehouse, buried among stacks of hundreds of random books, but you can get yours from Amazon.com (link below). I credit this book with saving my life! This is a book about dream interpretation, I've used this book loyally for about 3 years and it has been 100% accurate in predicting important events in my life. I am a precognant, and my dreams occasionally warn me of events to come. I highly recommend this book. Take note that not all dreams mean something, in fact the vast majority mean nothing at all. Only certain dreams, dreamed during REM sleep have meaning. I can usually tell these dreams apart because they are very realistic in nature, and they have a certain heaviness about them.

Poem of the week

There will be no poem of the week this week! Sorry everyone, but i'm only human and the inspiration just isn't flowing this week. I want to take this opportunity to apologize for this weeks post being late I've been dealing with some pregnancy issues. I would like to mention that though Beltane is celebrated between the 1st and the 5th the majority of people celebrate on the 1st, to them I apologize doubly. As always I welcome your questions, comments and complaints. Until next time, Love and Light!

Recommended web-site of the week

This week I wanna tell you about Mother Nature Network, this is a great site/blog to check out. There are a ton of Eco Friendly links for you to explore, but the one that I am linking directly to is the Top 10 environmental documentaries of 2009, (yes I am aware that it is 2013 this is still a great list!). I highly recommend that you watch as many of these environmental impact documentaries as you can stomach, they are VERY eye opening. So in the Spirit of this Earth Day past, enjoy! You can find most of them free with enough searching, some are also available to, "rent" on Amazon.com. http://www.mnn.com/lifestyle/arts-culture/photos/top-10-environmental-documentaries-of-2009/inspiring-and-shocking

Poem of the week

"Break the Stasis"

Jealousy entangles me

tapping trapping choking me

the dark side of me eyes of green

the future yet remains unseen-

light wins out and crushes black

balance I need to get on track/

I desire shades of grey

light and dark mixed love and hate-

I will never let fear win

lessons learned remember them/

pieces of it make you whole

let not one side have control-

they must share and you must take

there is too much that is at stake/

embrace all aspects and all faces

break the cycle leave your stasis

-Angel Hammer

Please feel free to leave me any questions or comments!!! Take care and enjoy your path always. Be sure to check out my Beltane article in the, "Witches Sabbats" section to the right! (Beltane May 5th!!!)

Recommended read of the week

I want to highly suggest the book Moon Magick: Myth and Magick, Crafts and Recipes, Rituals and Spells by D.J. Conway. This is currently my favorite book. I have always been deeply connected to the Moon as are we all, this book really helps you to realize how deep that connection goes. It is written in a way that you may read it all at once, skip around or as I am doing follow along month by month. I love this book!!!

Poem of the week

"The Goddess"

The Goddess is my mother

she provides for all my wants

I will not waste my life with worries,fear and buts/
my soul's calm in her pasture
my heart dances to her song -
the earth restores my soul
& moonlit waters make me whole/

I follow my own path the one the Universe has set
the truth guides me through the valley
a song forever in my step-
with reverance for life and no fear of death
the old way is the right way I know this with every breathe/

I shall prepare a table for those who aren't my friends
with words of care, peace& love relationships will mend-
"May you never hunger", this I say,"May you never thirst
your cup is filled this day" /

Surely peace and harmony the days of my life will follow me
so many lessons left to learn i'll take them all to heart-
in Summerland my soul will rest until it all restarts
When the beginning comes the end the circle will come round again/

Love Light and Blessed Be follow your heart and you'll be free

-Angel Hammer 4/17

As always I welcome questions and comments! Until next time Blessed Be.

Beltane and more!

Recommended read of the week

My recommended read for the week is a book that I mentioned in this weeks meditation! The Power of the Witch, by Laurie Cabot. This book may not be for everyone but as with all things you must draw your own meanings from it. It is still quite a useful tool and as I mentioned previously it was the very first book I ever read related to the craft as a child. It stuck with me!

Poem of the week

"Spring"

I breathe the air it cleanses me

refreshing exhilarating setting me free

so crisp this spring my favorite thing

to dance barefoot under moon and sing

the time is right beginning new life

the Mother our Earth renews my fight

-Angel Hammer

"untitled"

Trust in your heart young one it will not lie to you

ignore what the others say they don't know the truth-

love and light will guide you like a bird upon the wind

trust yourself above all else the Goddess is your friend/

follow always the sacred rede that matters above all else

take your destiny by the hand put doubt upon the shelf-

know and breathe the magic that surrounds you every day

there is no shame just love and peace when you follow the Wiccan way/ -Me

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed

by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do.

So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor.

Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."

(Mark Twain)

Recommended web-site of the week

My recommended site for this week is , The Pyramid Collection

( http://www.pyramidcollection.com/default.aspx?kwsrch=brand&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Brand&gclid=CNSF2_eBjLYCFQ6EnQodrTAAnQ ) . They are a bit pricey but they have some really

great deals. I love to use them for gifting, and even though they can

be expensive, anything I have ever bought from there has been well

worth it. They put a lot of time and effort to make sure they that

sell QUALITY products. I highly suggest them.

Recommended Read

I love the book, Solitary Wicca For Life, By Murphey Hiscock. It is
a great book especially for those who choose to walk their path alone or who don't have access to a good circle or coven.

Poem of the week

"The Mess"

Expressions flow through beating heart

at times I need to fall apart-

the tug and pull like falling down emotions twisted all around/

It's pleasure pain its life and death its that first kiss and the last

breath-

Embrace duality of man to live your life the best you can/

You aren't perfect don't try to be just do your best then you'll see

It's all more simple than you make it you have a chance so breathe

and take it/

Gateway to the soul

I titled this picture gateway to the soul, when I captured this photo it really took my breath away, and I

would be honored to know that it has the same effect on any of you. I hope you enjoy.

Recommended web-site of the week

These are sites that I have personally

used and can honestly recommend for excellent selection and customer

service. This weeks site is Aeclectic Tarot http://www.aeclectic.net/tarot/ .

On this amazing site you will find hundreds of amazing tarot decks and oracle

decks. You will not find a better selection anywhere on the net as far as I am

concerned and I very highly suggest taking a peak!

Animal Magick: The Art of Recognizing and Working with Familiars by D.J. Conway . I love this book! If you want to find more ways bond with your familiar, and find ways to further communicate and protect each other this is a great read.

Poem of the week

They told me that I'd fail but they don't know a thing

inspiration fills me like a puddle fills with rain/

I poured my pain and sorrow into a chrysalis of hope

and pulled forth the new me with the words that I spoke-

breathing in the moonlight and dancing on a cloud/

my ears ring now with the truth and I shall sing it loud-

fear not the changes that you know you must make/

embrace your life and trust yourself take that leap of faith

-Angel Hammer
