Russian pagans from ancient cult reception solstice


By SERGEI PONOMAREV Related Break down Author

Jul 5th, 2009 MALOYAROSLAVETS, Russia -- Tambourine yearning in hand, Velislav chants to gods whose cult has in the vicinity been obliterated by a millennium of Christianity in Russia.

A variety of hundred following at home linen, ancient Slavic bric-a-brac and flower garlands circle around the high priest to revelry the summer solstice, in an all-night revelry fought by the Russian Up front Church for centuries. The fearless faces of bearded gods and stern goddesses top a temple of traditional logs.

These are Russia's neo-pagans, whose ranks are speculative in the low thousands. Track a handful of pagan groups are legitimately registered in this in the main Up front Christian authority with cosmic Muslim, Buddhist and Jewish minorities. The split pagan groups repetitively fight about the truth of rituals, the ranking of priests or the pantheon of gods.

The Up front Church claims neo-pagans are mainly curious in the entertainment of the rituals, and truly some are pagans of superlative. They are also suggest seeing that right-wing nationalists who wedge the migration of non-Slavs bother meant some of their members are neo-pagan. In after February, four pagans were arrested in Moscow and charged with organizing a series of explosions and the cruel massacre of 11 dark-skinned non-Slavs.

On this night of the summer solstice, the pagans cull on a aromatic handle communicate the municipal of Maloyaroslavets, some 200 kilometers west of Moscow. They go by way of a fertility rite recognizable as Ivan Kupala -- resulting from the Slavic word "TO SOLUTION" -- whose aim is self-purification, unity with armed forces of fabrication and the commemoration of the Sun god, Velislav says.

Priests disappear string on the bump, and emergent women with braided hair assistance loaves of unleavened currency and kvas, a nonalcoholic predilection finished of rye. As heaviness drop, they kick via bonfires, ride fired pompous wheels symbolizing the Sun chariot and fly fired candles in a end watercourse to attract good luck.

Dmitri Pankratov, who goes by Ragnar in the middle of his friends, says Slavic paganism is the truly true religion for Russians. Extra sincere "ARE BRANCHES GRAFTED TO A TREE," Pankratov says on the crack of dawn at what time the revelry. "None of them are a explore of the take part."

No Parole For A Prison Pastor

No Parole For A Prison Pastor
John Brown murdered David "Stringbean" Akeman and his wife in 1973. He was convicted and sentenced to 198 years for the crime. Brown has served 37 years in prison now and want a parole. The state is having none of it. They laughed off his good behavior, which partially consisted of service as a prison pastor. I'm happy with the parole board's decision. Brown should die in prison without spending a single day free. The case brings up a topic which has bothered me for a long time. How can a murder serve as a pastor? We know that the bible says a leader should be above reproach. That should be reason enough to question his pointless service, right? There is more though. It has to do with the difference between a pastor focusing on reality (behaviors) and a pastor focused on the spirit. What can a murder teach others about the behaviors needed to be a truly good person? Sure, the pastor could focus on on the spiritual side of things. Like, Jesus loves you, redemption for the most heinous of crimes (except some thought crimes), and the promise of eternal life in heaven with God. These is a disconnect though. The men Brown preach to are hardened criminals. They need behavioral tutoring more than anything else. They need to be taught how to be good (if that is even possible). Brown is incapable of teaching on the subject and is unqualified. His effort is simply be a jailhouse scorecard to count baptisms for Jesus. What it the point? Becoming a Christian does not make you good. Being good makes you good. Which brings me to another point. If Brown were a true Christian he would realize that his crime demands a heavy penalty. One which he should pay willingly as atonement to his victims and society. Brown sees being a pastor as another check mark in the process of securing his release. It can be no other way. HIs focus is on getting out of prison. He's not acting like a Christian should act. He's acting like a selfish self-absorbed murder.

Guide To Crystal Healing

Guide To Crystal Healing
Spiritual healers and mystics have used crystals for healing for countless years. Crystal healing can be an effective treatment when used properly, but you want to make sure that you first consult a medical professional for any serious condition or if the condition worsens. Crystals work to heal the physical, spiritual and emotional self. The energies contained within gemstones correspond to the seven energy centers known as chakras throughout the body.

PHYSICAL HEALING


According to AstrologyZine.com crystals are used to heal the physical body by reducing energy blockages located in the chakras. First, pinpoint the location of your pain or discomfort and the corresponding chakra. See the Resources list at the end of this article for charts that detail the chakras and their connections to various physical structures. For example, if you're having problems with a sore throat or cough, wear a blue "crystal such" as sodalite or blue lace agate pendant. Meditate with the crystal while focusing its energy into your throat chakra. The associated color of the throat chakra is blue and the blue color of the crystals will help awaken that area of your body and clear it of impurities.

SPIRITUAL HEALING


Crystals are wonderful healers of SPIRITUAL DIFFICULTIES. Focus on what spiritual difficulties you are having and connect them to a particular chakra or color. For example, if you are feeling disconnected from the spiritual plane, focus on your CROWN CHAKRA (a few inches above the top of your head) and surround "yourself with violet" colored stones linked to that chakra. According to Crystal-Cure.com the crown chakra links the individual to the cosmos, so surrounding yourself with violet crystals such as amethyst and sugilite will increase your sense of connection to your spiritual self.

EMOTIONAL HEALING


Before using crystals for emotional healing, you should first contemplate the true source of your discomfort. Use a clear crystal quartz initially by meditating with the stone and seeking the source of your emotional pain. Once recognized, focus on the heart chakra which is located in your chest. Using a green crystal such as aventurine, jade, or emerald, meditate on the source of this pain and the freedom you will feel once you let it go. Consider forgiveness of others and of yourself, and most importantly allow the crystal's energies to imbue you with a sense of self-love and self-acceptance.TAGS: yourself with violet, crown chakra, crystal such, "heal physical", "source your", spiritual difficulties, "throat chakra"

New Reviews Of Vodou Love Magic

New Reviews Of Vodou Love Magic
Natalie Maxwell at Feminist Review offers these thoughts:Filan not only provides an in-depth definition of these issues; they are dissected and analyzed with the eye of an amateur psychologist with lots of "practical" advice on how to deal with them. So, what's the first thing you should do if you realize you're being stalked by a jilted lover, stranger, or an ex who just can't accept it's over? "Cut off all contact with your stalker now", Filan recommends. Also: "Record every stalking incident" and "Take steps to ensure your safety." If that isn't practical advice, I don't know what is.Yet in this chapter, as in the rest of the book, the spells Filan suggests we consider trying in order to help us work through our problems will keep you interested. Having a hard time battling your sexual demons? Go to a crossroads with a tiny pouch filled with a corncob pipe, tobacco, a bottle of rum, and some loose change to consult Papa Legba (guardian of the gateway between the two worlds) for guidance. Feeling intense sadness and depression after a breakup? Performing Damballah's (the most ancient and powerful of all the Iwa) Transmutation of Love Spell may help. Ms. Maxwell comments that this book seemed a bit heavier on the psychology and self-help and a little light on the Vodou. I can definitely see that: I was aiming here at people who were seeking help through love spells. After spending some time on various forums hearing things like "can you make my ex-boyfriend leave his babymama, remove the restraining order against me, and move back in once he gets released from prison?" I felt it was best to deal with safety and emotional health issues. Giving someone a spell when they really need a shoulder to cry on and a few sessions with a counselor does no good for anyone. Meanwhile, La Bianca waxed rhapsodic about the book at Latino Sexuality."I've reviewed a fabulous book for one of my editors called Vodou Love Magic: A Practical Guide to Love, Sex, and Relationships by Kenaz Filan, which is a book for practitioners and those interested in this belief and value system."It's always great to see that people are enjoying your work and finding it useful. Thanks, Natalie and La Bianca, for your kind words!From the Kenaz Filan Bloghttp://kenazfilan.blogspot.com

Profile Quanah Parker

Profile Quanah Parker
QUANAH PARKER (c. late 1840s - February 23, 1911) was a Native American Indian leader, the son of Comanche chief Peta Nocona and European American woman Cynthia Ann Parker, and the last chief of the Quahadi Comanche Indians.

Quanah Parker's mother, Cynthia Ann Parker {b.ca 1827}, was a member of the large Parker frontier family that settled in east Texas in the 1830s. She was captured in 1836 by Comanches during the raid of Fort Parker near present-day Groesbeck, Texas. She was given the Indian name Nadua ("Someone Found"), and adopted into the Nocona band of Comanches. Cynthia Ann eventually married the Comanche warrior Noconie, (aka Tah-con-ne-ah-pe-ah) (called Peta Nocona by the whites), who was a Mexican captive. Quanah was her firstborn son. She also had another son, Pecos ("Pecan") and a daughter, Topsana ("Prairie Flower)" In 1860, Cynthia Ann Parker was recaptured in the battle of Pease River by Texas Rangers under Lawrence Sullivan Ross. Peta Nocona, Quanah, and most of the other men were out hunting when Ross' men attacked. Returning to find the aftermath, they found it difficult to get any information as only a few people were still alive. Meanwhile, Cynthia Ann was reunited with her white family, but years with the Comanches had made her a different person. She frequently demanded to return to her husband, but was never permitted to do so. After Topsana died of an illness in 1863, Cynthia Ann starved herself to death in 1870.

In October, 1867, Quanah was among the Comanche chiefs at Medicine Lodge. Though he did not give a speech - his place was as an observer - he did make a statement about not signing the Medicine Lodge Treaty. His band remained free while other Comanches signed.

In the early 1870s, the plains Indians were losing the battle for their land. Following the capture of the Kiowa chiefs Satank, Adoeet (Big Tree), and Satanta, the Kiowa, Comanche, and Cheyenne tribes joined forces in several battles. Colonel Ranald Mackenzie was sent to eradicate all remaining Indians who had not settled on reservations.

In 1874, while in the Texas panhandle, a Comanche prophet named Isatai summoned the tribes to Second Battle of Adobe Walls, where several buffalo hunters were active. With Kiowa Chief Big Bow, Quanah was in charge of one group of warriors. The incident was his closest brush with death; he was shot twice.

With their food source depleted, and under constant pressure from the army, the Quahadi Comanches finally surrendered and in 1875 moved to a reservation in southwestern Oklahoma. His home in Cache, Oklahoma was called the Star House. Parker's was the last tribe of the Staked Plains or Llano Estacado to come to the reservation. Quanah was named chief over all the Comanches on the reservation, and proved to be a forceful, resourceful and able leader. Through wise investments, he became perhaps the wealthiest American Indian of his day in the United States. Quanah embraced much of white culture, and was well respected by the whites. He went on hunting trips with President Theodore Roosevelt. Nevertheless, he rejected both monogamy and traditional Protestant Christianity in favor of the Native American Church Movement. He had five wives and twenty five children and founded the Native American Church. One of his sons, White Parker, later became a Methodist minister.

Author Bill Neeley writes:

"Not only did Quanah pass within the span of a single lifetime from a Stone Age warrior to a statesman in the age of the Industrial Revolution,but he never lost a battle to the white man and he also accepted the challenge and responsibility of leading the whole Comanche tribe on the difficult road toward their new existence."

Quanah died on February 23, 1911. He is buried at the Fort Sill Cemetery, beside his mother and sister. The inscription on his tombstone reads:

"Resting Here Until Day Breaks"
"And Shadows Fall and Darkness"
"Disappears is"
"Quanah Parker Last Chief of the Comanches"
"Born 1852"
"Died Feb. 23, 1911" Quanah Parker is credited as one of the first big leaders of the Native American Church Movement. Parker adopted the peyote religion after being gored in southern Texas by a bull. Parker was visiting his mother's brother, John Parker, in Texas where he was attacked, giving him severe wounds. To fight an onset of blood burning fever, a Mexican curandera was summoned and she prepared a strong peyote tea from fresh peyote to heal him. It was from this incident on that Quanah Parker became involved with peyote. Peyote is reported to contain hordenine and tyramine, phenylethylamine alkaloids which act as potent natural antibiotics when taken in a combined form.

Parker taught that the sacred peyote medicine was the sacrament given to the Indian Peoples, and was to be used with water when taking communion in a traditional Native American Church medicine ceremony. Parker was a proponent of the "half-moon" style of the peyote ceremony. The "cross" ceremony later evolved in Oklahoma due to Caddo influences introduced by John Wilson, a Caddo-Delaware Indian who traveled extensively around the same time as Parker during the early days of the Native American Church movement. The Native American Church was the first truly "American" religion based on Christianity outside of the Latter Day Saints.

Parker's most famous teaching regarding the Spirituality of the Native American Church:

"The White Man goes into his church and talks about Jesus. The Indian goes into his Tipi and talks with Jesus."

The modern reservation era in Native American History began with the universal adoption of the Native American Church and Christianity by virtually every Native American Tribe and Culture within North American and Canada as a result of Parker and Wilson's efforts. The Peyote religion and the Native American Church, however, was never the traditional religious practice of North American Indian Cultures. This religion was driven by Parker's leadership and was driven by influences from Mexico and other Southern Tribes who have used peyote since ancient times. Under Parker's leadership, peyote became an important item of trade, and this, combined with his Church movement and political and financial contacts, garnered Parker enormous wealth during his lifetime.

CRITICISM

Although praised by many in his tribe as a preserver of their culture, Quanah had critics within the Comanche community. Many claimed that he "sold out to the white man" with his rancher persona in later life, dressing and living in a more American than Comanche style. Quanah did adopt more white ways than most other Comanche of his time, but he always wore his hair long and in braids. He also refused to follow white American marriage customs, which would have required him to cast aside four of his five wives.

Another point of controversy among the Comanche was that Quanah was never elected chief of the entire tribe by the people themselves. Traditionally, the Comanche had no single chief. The various bands of the Comanche had their own chiefs, with no single figure standing for the entire people. But that, as many other things, changed with the reservation times.

FAMILY

Quanah's grandfather was the Chief Iron Jacket, famous among the Comanches as a powerful chief who wore a Spanish coat of mail and was said to have the power to blow bullets away with his breath.

Quanah's first wife was Weakeah, daughter of Comanche chief Yellow Bear. Originally, she was espoused to another warrior. Quanah and Weakeah eloped, and took several other warriors with them. It was from this small group that the large Quahadi band would form. Yellow Bear pursued the band and eventually Quanah made peace with him, and the two bands united, forming the largest force of Comanche Indians.

Over the years, Quanah accumulated four more wives. He had twenty-five children. Many north Texans and south Oklahomans claim descent from Quanah. It had been said that more Comanches are related to Quanah than any other chief. One grandson became Comanche chairman, the modern "Chief" of the tribe.

After moving to the reservation, Quanah first got in touch with his white relatives. He stayed for a few weeks with them, where he studied English and western culture, and learned white farming techniques.

In his later years, Quanah carried on a correspondence by letter with Texas cattleman Charles Goodnight. Though Goodnight was illiterate, he dictated the letters to his wife, who in turn sent them to Quanah.

The Mysteries Of Beth

The Mysteries Of Beth
Beth (pronounced Bayt or Bet) is the second letter of the Hebrew alphabet. It, therefore, has the gematria value of 2. Its Hebrew spelling is Beth Yod Tav, which, in turn, has a gematria value of 412 (Beth=2, Yod=10, Tav=400). The fully spelled word means "House", and is sometimes transliterated as Bayith.

The letter is drawn by starting at the top left, drawing the roof, which extends down into the right-hand "wall". Then the floor is drawn by starting at the left, making sure a little "ledge" extends out further on the right (so it is not confused with Kaph, etc.).

The first letter in the Torah is Beth, forming Bereshith: "In The Beginning". There are many commentaries for why a Beth begins this seminal Qabalistic text and not an Aleph. One explanation states that Aleph was not used because it begins the word Arar, meaning "curse", while Beth begins Berakah, meaning "blessing". Another has all the letters line up before God, asking to be honoured with beginning the Torah and Creation. God chooses Beth, but keeps Aleph as the first letter, representing his unity (Kether).

Interestingly enough, if we take these first two letters together, Aleph Beth, we have Ab, the Hebrew word for Father. Thus, even the alphabet begins with the Father (God). The little "ledge" at the back of the Beth is an opening unto the breath of Kether, showing that these two letters are interlinked, like Force and Form. Beth always points to that which precedes it, just as the House points to the One who built it (and Aleph=1).

A further interesting point about Bereshith is that when we take the Hebrew, BRAShITh, and remove the three letters Resh, Aleph, Shin (RASh), which forms Rosh, meaning "Head" (related to the letter Resh), we are left with Beth Yod Tav (BITh), the spelling of Beth and "House". Thus, the Head (God) dwells in the House.

However, Rashith (RAShITh - Resh Aleph Shin Yod Tau) means "[the] beginning" (Beth can represent the preposition "in"), and thus Beth, which means "House" (Bayith), existed before the Beginning. B'Rashith. Beth Rashith.

The House existed before the Beginning. This is the House of God. But it is also the House of Israel. And what existed before the Beginning? Nothing. Nothing existed before the Beginning. So the House of God, the House of Israel, is Nothing. It is Ain. It is above the manifestation of Kether, because it is Unmanifest.

The Bahir says: "To those who seek to see the face of the King, but they do not know where the King is. First they ask the whereabouts of the King's house, and then they ask where the King is." When you find the House of God (Beth), then you will find God (Aleph)

Rahu In 1St House Ketu In 7Th House

Rahu in 1st House / Ketu in 7thHouse The Rahu in the First House is good for the native; it brings him a measure of support which will enable him to succeed in life. It is also a sign of wealth from the intellectual standpoint: a practical imagination, an inventive and fruitful mind. This position is good for the health.The Ketu, being in the Seventh House, signifies worries and troubles regarding partners. It often indicates a very material union, so that if the planets are well-placed in the Horoscope this position will be fortunate for money and material things, but where marriage is concerned, not for the emotions.Person must develop his/her own initiative and their own personal power. They would have relied too much on other people in the past, and have been dependent on or dominated by others. Now they must work and carve out their own destiny. Through their own efforts and own actions, they will gain the confidence and self-reliance they need.This person tends to learn to do things for himself/herself, to rely on their own initiative. Life seems to force them constantly into situations where they will have to act under their own volition. He/she should develop a personality that the public identifies as being individual; and he/she needs to take a personal stand on things. Rahu in the first is forced constantly to project himself, depending upon the sign position. The sign would indicate the reason for the projection of self. He/she will need to accomplish things through the power of his personality, and to develop self-sufficiency.Ketu in the seventh is self-negation. There is danger here that the individual will try to indulge in all kinds of relationships. His/her partnerships can become so involved that he/she may lose his/her individuality in other. This gives the probability that the person will marry successfully later in life. There is always a secret fear of losing the marriage partner. It gives innate knowledge and talent of how to be a good partner. Along with this comes dissatisfaction because of the Ketu person's overly idealistic image of a partner. Marriage in this ideal sense may be tried many times and many times denied. He/she is not rational where partnerships are concerned, especially when Ketu is in the sign of Libra. Ketu in Scorpio in the seventh is troubled with sexual idealism and / or the partner's financial status. The person is capable of counselling others despite his own personal problems, or more probably because of them. This condition signifies that the personal values are more important than general public or partnership(s). Individuality is self-propelled; and this person may or may not take heavy partnership responsibility. In reality, the partnership activities are often a drag for them in many ways, but they have to learn to cope with that. Strong aggressive tendencies are displayed, and the personality can be action-oriented. Other people or partnerships become a medium of learning experiences with or without choice. In their recent past life, they have been too much marriage-oriented or in deeper public involvement. This individual is here to go through experiences which challenge the self. In former incarnations, he/she fell into the trap of depending upon undependable people.Spending too much time trying to help others understand themselves, he/she never stopped to reflect on how their same situations and circumstances played an important role in his/her own identity. As a result of putting the accent outside the self, it now becomes difficult for him/her to see who he/she really is.These Nodes indicate past incarnations in which the individual submerged his identity in the affairs of others. Marriage and partnerships are so deeply rooted in his/her way of doing things that his quest of self is constantly viewed through other people's eyes. He/she therefore allows their thoughts and opinions of him to influence his own sense of identity.Ultimately he/she must come out of the bondage of trying to be all things to all people, and, in the light of his own singular vibration, establish who he/she really is. He/she must escape from living in the shadow of other people's lives.His/her soul memories of co-operation and teamwork are so strong that every time he/she falls back on them, he/she actually extinguishes himselfherself in the causes of others.His/her first house Rahu now brings to him/her the awareness that somehow he/she has lost his identity. Submerged in the desire to please, he/she has made himself a reflection of an ideal peculiarly opposite to his own basic nature. This causes him much current-life pain as he/she desires to come out of himself/herself while at the same time not inflict hurt upon those near him/her.He/she must ultimately learn how to assume gracefully the role of leadership. This is extremely difficult, because he/she has had so much prior-life experience in being submissive. He/she has sacrificed himself/herself so that others could achieve their goals.All of his important experiences revolved around docile acquiescence. Now the highest growth potential is to establish a sense of self without shutting off completely the benefits of marriage and partnerships. Too often when he/she becomes aware of all he/she has sacrificed through his Ketu, he/she becomes an extremist, feeling that one state of existence inhibits the other. He/she starts focusing every part of the life energy around the desire to lead rather than to be led. Through an instinctive knowledge that his/her Achilles heel or weak spot is in the ways that he/she can allow himself to be put into the position of being taken advantage of in marriage, he/she develops the tendency to become too over-assertive. He/she tries too hard to make up for what he/she feels he/she has lost.To achieve happiness in the current life, he/she must learn how to balance equally his/her own needs with those around him. He/she must deliberately try not to rush his/her own growth and independence, with the understanding that the most beautiful flower takes time to blossom, while only the weed grows quickly!The sign which contains the Ketu indicates the ways in which the individual during former incarnations submerged himself/herself in others. The sign which contains the Rahu shows the ways in which he/she can now establish his own sense of identity. Conflicts: Good self-projection in terms of being true to self vs. good projection in terms of appealing to others. Excessive worry about partner's well-being vs. attention to your own well-being. Self-generated vitality vs. dependency on others for stimulating vitality.Possible results of sacrificing Rahu: You become dependent on the co-operation of others. You lose awareness of your own feelings about things. You lose your identity. You sacrifice yourself so that others can achieve their goals.Possible ways to integrate Rahu: Learn to accept leadership roles occasionally. Remain sensitive to your environment, but try to avoid being overly influenced by it. Travel - preferably on your own. Seek direct, honest contact with others. Seek out new experiences.In the first house, there's a hang-up about leadership. This person is inherently strong and probably highly motivated, but often lacks moderation in his/her attempts to fulfill a leadership role. There's a fluctuation between playing the dictator - which invariably proves unsuccessful - and a strong lack of confidence in your abilities. You feel if you can't be the ultimate leader you may as well just put your life in other people's hands. Either extreme produces clashes with others, since neither the dictator nor the pawn proves to be a totally comfortable role.A less common tendency is to not care about how you look. This person, rightly or wrongly, wants to be accepted on the basis of his or her inner qualities. However, again rightly or wrongly, in our society relationships are often initiated on the basis of an attractive appearance. For this reason, those who neglect to develop this facet of their personality quite often don't get to first base when it comes to forming relationships.It's interesting to note that in the process of balancing the first / seventh nodal axis, the person may for a time develop an almost narcissistic preoccupation with grooming and appearance.Rahu in the first house wants to be thought of as ambitious, energetic, and lucky. In contrast, ambitions may have been thwarted by an early marriage or an unfortunate marriage that was based more on transitory romantic feelings than real love. Feelings about relationships and life in general are changeable, and often make a drain on energy, so that when opportunities arise, motivation to act on them is lacking. Sometimes there are problems from laziness or passivity. Your focus for personal development will concern identity and relationship issues. You may become dependent on others and, in so doing, submerge your identity in the process, perhaps by displaying a passivity to their will, desires, and needs. You may lack self-esteem, as your self-image often reflects others' perceptions and evaluations of you. This can be misleading, perhaps creating a distorted self-perception, particularly since you allow others' views and opinions to influence your actions and behavior. Yet relationships will be important, and you can devote much time trying to satisfy these partnership needs.You need freedom from dependency on others. Learn how to be more independent and forge a unique identity, instead of relying on others to define it for you. Through self-understanding, you can live by your own light. But, until this is achieved, you probably will remain too influenced by another's persuasion. What may occur is that, through your desire to please others, you deny and repress your own identity, needs and desires; and through misplaced self-sacrifice, lose contact with your deeper being.While you recognize the value of relationship co-operation and harmony, being too passive and submissive to more assertive personalities becomes damaging. There are alternate ways of relating, however, which can benefit all concerned. Discovering this alternate path is your challenge. You may have to assert your needs and desires in a way which does not create conflict. Perhaps due to previously relying on others to decide actions, when you become more assertive, you encounter friction with those who have almost taken you for granted. They may find it difficult to deal with the emerging 'new you'. Such difficulties must be faced, and relationships must be rebalanced and adjusted; reverting to a submissive or passive attitude will be detrimental to inner growth.Ideally, this developing self-expression will be balanced with an opennes to experience the richness and complexity offered by relationships. Initially, this may cause relationship challenges; and your assertiveness may be inappropriate at times. Careful moderation may be necessary, especially if you suddenly at as a 'new you' overnight, or try to dominate others. You need awareness of how you are treating others as you move from a passive to an active role in your relationships. Care is required as you unfold your personality, and when harmonizing your needs with those of partners. For some, the transition could involve dissolving older relationships and later forming new ones more suitable to the old phase. Growth rarely happens overnight; it will come slowly and with considerable effort. But retain faith that your struggles will create great personal benefit and freedom.Here the individual stands out against the backdrop of his or her environment. In the 1sthouse, the native introduces himself or herself. The 1st house is an extrovert house. The native seeks recognition and makes an effort to be noticed. With the Node in the 1st house, what is required is the courage to stand up and say, 'This is what I am, and I am not going to change for anyone'.When the chart is examined as a whole, it is usually found that the ego has problems in sufficiently being itself, and that this is something the Moon's Node urges us to work at. If, with the Node in the 1st house, I run into difficulties, the most likely reason is an inability to say, 'Whatever happens, I am going to be myself; and it is for me to decide whether or not I can do it or want to do it'. With the Node in the 1st house, we must learn to stick to our point of view.Also, it is important to be aware of the opposite Node, as there is a tendency to be ruled by the opinions of others, and to wait for them to tell us what to do. The Ketu is, of course, in the 7th house. But reliance on someone else, and hoping that another person will put our chestnuts out of the fire for us, so that we have no need to fight for ourselves, amounts to stagnation or falling back in development.In hard aspects to the 1st-house Node, the tendency is to use the Ketu reflexly by currying favor with the other person; we get on well with this person because we are friendly and hide the less amiable side of our character. Thus a false picture of ourself is presented, which considerably blocks our development. Certainly, in the 1st house, one has to cultivate one's image, but it should be presented as honestly as possible.If the Node in the 1st house receives soft aspects, the partner, represented by the 7thhouse, will be very supportive without having to be asked. This is not as bad as when the native asks for support. The motivation is what matters. If the native tries to help himself or herself, the partner may also come along and help. That is not stagnation. Action has been taken. If the Node is on the Ascendant itself, the whole 1st-house theme must be taken very seriously. In soft aspects, and very much more so in inconjuncts, it is observable that often the native does not care to emphasize the ego, because it is not the 'done thing'. This can be a big mistake, since without parading our ego we have no real chance in the world. The world will not know who we are. It is preferable to try and make the best possible impression on people than to make none at all. The Node on the Ascendant is a placement in which the native almost always has to call attention to himself or herself. The world has to be made to look at him or her. It is very important to put the self forward and to keep on improving the personal image.Rahu in the first house. If the Rahu is in the first house, the person's greatest growth, evolution, and fulfillment come through developing his/her own personality and personal power. He/she has been too dependent on marriage partners in past lives, and has relinquished his individuality and authority to his/her mates. The person must follow his/her instincts and impulses, and learn to care for his/her own destiny. He/she must not allow himself to be dominated, manipulated, or overshadowed by the feelings and wishes of others. There is a great likelihood that the person will become enmeshed in early marriage and soon feel smothered and controlled. He/she may (with great effort, pain, and struggle) eventually free himself in order to develop and nurture his own personality, ambitions, and self-expression. Then the possibility of growth, satisfaction, and a sense of accomplishment becomes a reality.The person should beware of compromising too quickly and easily. He/she must work on confidence and self-reliance, and use his/her own judgement. He/she will be happier and healthier when he/she learns to value his own opinions and stand up for himself. The person gains a great deal from decisiveness and dynamic action, and should therefore take the initiative as much as possible. Men or women with this Rahu placement are well-advised to cultivate and nurture their masculine side. The person should be more assertive, and express his/her emotions when provoked. He/she must not, in the event of anger or irritability, give in to his habitual patterns of suppression and self-denial. In this lifetime, his individuality, self-esteem, and ego needs are of the essence.The person must let go of his compulsion to create peace and harmony in the environment. Toward this end, he/she will be forever thrust into circumstances where he/she feels compelled to declare his convictions and take appropriate action. The person should focus on his/her physical body, be more daring, and allow the fiery element of his personality to come through more often. In ancient Hindu astrology, the Rahu in the first house and the Ketu in the seventh indicates a beautiful and powerful appearance, serious ups and downs in married life, and a strange, eccentric, or highly spiritual spouse. Sign positions of the nodes are of much higher significance as well. The post Rahu in 1st House / Ketu in 7th House appeared first on Trueastrologer.com.

Church Affiliation Colonial And Now Sightings Martin Marty

Church Affiliation Colonial And Now Sightings Martin Marty
"Ah, the good old days, when America was a Christian (Protestant) dominated Eden. Oh, if only we could go back. There has been a strong "restorationist" impulse in American life. We've looked back at the past and tried to find touchstones that mark a sense of primitive purity. My denomination the Disciples of Christ, is rooted in one of those movements, born as it was on the American Frontier early in the 19th century. As observers look out at the current scene, with the dominance of Christianity receding, so that not only are Mainline Protestant churches shrinking, it's affecting everyone. So, in the face of this, do we look back with nostalgia. In this week's edition of Sightings", which I'm reproducing later in the week due to my earlier political coverage, Martin Marty takes a look at the question. I invite you to consider his words and add your own thoughts. Where are we in relation to earlier days? Is this good or bad? Is the movement away from institutional religion to freer spirituality a positive or negative sign? Take a read; offer a thought.

Martin Marty Center for the Advanced Study of Religion


The University of Chicago Divinity School SIGHTINGS" 11/5/2012 CHURCH AFFILIATION COLONIAL AND NOW-- MARTIN E. MARTYSuddenly it has dawned on pundits and publics that decline in religious affiliation and participation demands notice. Editorials on the subject abound. Some of these celebrated the liberation of society from religion, though descriptions of what is replacing it are seldom seen as satisfying (spiritually, philosophically, politically). We'll talk about that some other day. Others use the statistics of decline to scold those whom the editorialists blame: liberals, secularists, compromisers, sell-outs. Still others use the data to inspire counteraction: a search for new strategies, fresh theological statements, understanding the alienation of so many of the young from religious and other institutions. You will even find some of the Catholic and other churches who argue that statistical decline might leave the nation and its churches with leaner, purer memberships and affiliations. "Comparing church membership and participatory decline with data from the past calls for the question: which past? Saturday'sWall Street Journal" features an op-ed by David Aikman, author of the new Baker book, "One Nation Without God: The Battle for Christianity in an Age of Unbelief." Despite an occasional sneer, for example about "a secular orthodoxy clank[ing] its way peevishly through academe, the media and popular culture," Aikman's tone is that of a sincere and sincerely worried believer. One might suggest, however, that the past he chooses is more complex than he recalls. Colonial America was not as church-bound and church-moved as he suggests. He does better with the nineteenth century, when religious practice did take hold not only among Catholic newcomers but also revived Protestants. So how were things in the good old days? A consensus questioned by a few serious scholars-Patricia Bonomi among them-is that fewer than 20 percent of the colonial citizens were active in churches. Change came after 1776, so that, in one common estimate, church participation jumped from 17 percent to 34 percent between 1776 and 1850. A better past, more illuminating for comparison in present concerns, is between the early 1960s, when participation crested, and today.

Problems abound: Aikman and all other observers reckon that religious vitality is not simply tied to church and other-institutional membership. Thus, for example, Douglas and Rhona Hustedt Jacobsen, in an important new book "No Longer Invisible: Religion in University Education" (Oxford), see religion not simply confined by the "peevish" but is all over the place in many sectors of academe. Religion, for better and for worse-often for worse-gets more space and time in media than at any time in memory. Usually, stories of decline focus on "Mainline Protestantism," which has taken many hits even as it scores some others. But the demographers reveal that decline is also measured in many large evangelical Protestant churches, which are no longer exempt from the trends. Also, if one takes out the Mexican American population membership, almost everything one can say about Protestant decline is matched by losses in Catholic participation in worship and activity. Aikman, though his work is tinged by nostalgia for a nation that was never as faithful or godly or "together" as he suggests, does a favor by connecting decline with faltering in or rejection of "belief. Being spiritual" is hardly an address to that, if spirituality lacks ties to communities of faith and services provided by often derided "institutional religion" whenever it was healthier, as the Aikmans of today measure it. Now, for the future?...

This month's Religion line-height: normal;">Pussy Riot, the Media and Church-State Relations in Russia Today" by Katja Richters (University of Erfurt). What role was played by the Russian Orthodox Church in the arrest and sentencing of the band Pussy Riot earlier this year? And what are the implications of this case for church-state relations in Russia today? In this month's web forum, Katja Richters argues that the "reluctance on behalf of the Moscow Patriarchate to become more actively involved in the [Pussy Riot] lawsuit combined with the disunity its leadership displayed in its approach to the punk prayer gave rise to a vacuum that could be filled in many possible ways by both the media and the state. The latter took advantage of this situation by presenting the [Church] as a victim which it needed to protect." At the same time, Richters stresses, "the relationship between the [Church] and the Kremlin is much more complex than the recent developments would suggest."

Mt 141 12 This Man Deserves Death

Mt 141 12 This Man Deserves Death
Matthew 14: 1-12 INTRIGUE, INFLUENCE AND POWER

(Click here for reading)

Today's readings present the juxtaposition of two great prophets in the midst of powerful leaders. The prophet Jeremiah boldly prophesied in the Lord's name to the "princes and the people" to the point of being sentenced to death. He held firm, and the people said, "This man does not deserve death; it is in the name of the Lord, our God, that he speaks." St. John the Baptist, boldly proclaimed the Lord and Herod was intrigued; however, he did not fear God. Distressed by fear of the way he would be perceived by guests and out of a twisted sense of duty to uphold an unjust oath, he put to death one man who could have led him to Christ.

We rejoice in the way Jeremiah was spared and the people were converted; yet we despise Herod. In a way, if we honestly reflect, we find that we are often like Herod.

INTRIGUED BY CHRIST OR COMMITTED TO KNOWING HIM?

If only Herod would have opened himself to The Truth, how might the world have changed? Have you ever considered what would have happened if Herod underwent a radical conversion and stood up for Christ...the Gospel would read differently. It wasn't in the Divine plan. Yet, we are called, daily, to draw close to our Lord to allow Him to speak to us, make His will known and fill us with the graces we need to be bold witnesses like Jeremiah and John. Is commitment to quality time with Christ an intriguing idea or a conviction so strong that we will boldly and actively seek him each day? Let us make a greater commitment to substantial daily time with our Lord.

THE INFLUENCE OF OTHERS VS. THE WAY WE INFLUENCE OTHERS

Turning back to Ahikam and Herod we see two distinctly different ways that powerful men use their influence. Ahikam protected the prophet; Herod put one to death. Often we fail to recognize the power of our influence. Our words and our actions can preserve life or destroy it. In our homes, schools, workplaces, parishes and in a world so desperate for Christ, we have great influence. The question is, does my influence preserve and give life?

HOW DO WE USE OUR POWER?

The power we have been given by Our Lord is great indeed. In the 2nd chapter of Colossians verses 9-10, St. Paul writes, "For in him dwells the whole fullness of the deity bodily, and you share in this fullness in him, who is the head of every principality and power." Do we really believe these words? He who is the head of every principality and power beckons for us to come to Him...daily. He asks, doesn't demand, our time. He poured himself out on the Cross and presents himself to us in the sacraments, especially in The Eucharist. Let his power be made manifest in you. How do we, as husbands and wives, sons and daughters, executives, workers, stay at home moms and religious use the great power Christ bestows on us to transform the world that is in such great need of our authentic witness.

St. Ignatius of Loyola, whose memorial we celebrate today said, "Give me only Thy Love and Thy Grace and I am rich enough, I ask for nothing more." Let that be our prayer today.

Lord, give me only your Love and Grace and I am rich enough, I ask for nothing more. Help me to be resolved in my commitment to you; not intrigued. Grant me the grace to be ever mindful of my influence on others and embolden me to use the power you have given, through great sacrifice, that I might bring you glory.

A Practical Guide To The Runes Their Uses In Divination And Magic

A Practical Guide To The Runes Their Uses In Divination And Magic
BOOK: A Practical Principal TO THE RUNES THEIR USES IN Divination AND Imaginary BY LISA PESCHELEIHWAZ the yew, URUZ the bleak ox, KENAZ the copy fire. Bent by the Nordic and Germanic tribes of northern Europe, the runes began as a magickal method of pictographs intended for the martial and stuff in soul. This director general feeling help you convoy the oracular soul of the runes and how to use them as a magickal tool for insight, protection, and luck. Practical and dumpy, this book includes: - Equipped similes of the twenty-four runes of the Aristocratic Futhark, begin WYRD, the numb rune - The differences involving bindrunes and runescripts - Four rune layouts and fastidious rune Interpretations, along with reversed note meanings - How to chop runes and initiate talismans - Meanings and uses of the runes in magick As a beginning rune caster (coming from a good Ceasefire of tarot), I find this book very feasible and very lovely to understand (as loath to a guide that came with purchased runes, which were too forceful and crisp to interpret.) Not hardly does it help to make finish contacts with each rune, it as well explains how to make your own runes and talismans and includes a load of other superior information, along with suggested reading. I'd fantasize this is as well a groovy book for someone who is discerning with runes. This book is ring out and easy. The explanations of runes within its pages are ring out for the beginner as well as the veteran. The refrence tables in the book for magick works are as well one of the best I've seen so far. Though elfin and pouch, this book holds a king's ransom in runic knowledge and no one neediness pass up the rest to get it. The poet gives you a good introduction with a method that reminds me of Scott Cunningham, its easy to read and has room for self. All at the same time permanent for the utmost part historically strict, I ruminate that the hardly thing that isnt strict is the numb rune, which has slight to none signifigance to the Aristocratic Futhark and i would reccomend getting rid of it (copy in mint condition referee understood, "lug it out! ". Before this book is one of the best introduction books on runes that i own. And i would reccomend this to human being responsive in runes.
