Of Rants and Reeds

Now it is official

October 29, 2008

A year of beauty. A year of plenty. A year of planting. A year of harvest. A year of forests. A year of healing.A year of vision. A year of passion.
A year of rebirth.

This year may we renew the earth.
This year may we renew the earth.

Let it begin with each step we take.
And let it begin with each change we make.
And let it begin with each chain we break.
And let it begin every time we awake.

Chant from the
Reclaiming Samhain Celebration
 

Now, I think I’ve made it official. I am now a witch - ohhh…. scratch that… Is there any form of “male” witch? A Warlock? A wiccan dude?

Ohh never-the-mind! Witch will fit anyway…

Yesterday, Oct. 29, was a new moon. My ideal day for my “Blessing of implements”. I blessed my tools for my altar, and my candles and my stones. Yes, I was actually able to find those things, and I am now able to setup my own altar. It’s just that I don’t have the space since our house is the new “inuman” county of all the tambays in my vacinity, thanks to my brothers.

I don’t know what happened to my so-called house, but that’s a different story.

Anyway, I think I have everything I need, except for the God and Godess statues. Colored candles, the four tools: wand, Athame, cup, a ring (my sub for the pentacles), a boline, some oils, inscence (Thankies MIAO) and even a book of shadows.

But for the mean time, I’ve got to keep it from my immediate family. I don’t want to shock them, but I know it will be ok. I’m already the established “wierdo” of the family anyway.

On to another story: 

But I was shocked earlier. I was buying food at Jolibee earlier, and I have an old lady in front of me with her husband. I looked on her graying hair which is somehow colored with a golden tinge, then a picture popped into my mind. I literally saw it flash in front of me. I saw her face as if she were dead. Pale, White and all. 

I tried to wipe it off my mind, but it stuck there for a couple of seconds. Then she was off, with her husband.

I was a bit scared of what I saw, because I believe in omens, but I don’t want to give any one “definite hints” of things to come since it is like controlling their free wills.

Anyway, I just thought  of writing this down. So that I wont forgetwho and what I am now.

Indeed, Samhain is a new beginning.

A nice laugh…

October 11, 2008

 

   WTF! FTW!!!

 

What was I thinking accepting that role?  
 
Well, that’s the only way out of the situation, I guess. I did not want to be in that *humiliatin* position but I had no choice. I’m the VICTIM here… 
 
At least I had a good laugh at myself…
They had me cornered and no where to go, and TL wanted me to do it anyway. No one can deny that it was indeed an unprepaired entry to that…errrr…. what ever it is.  
 
“Mioa: Seriously… Mang Jose?
 TL Lou: :D
 Miao: It was something new for a change
 TL Lou: :D
 
Yeah, they were not the person there so,  no harm done. For them.
 
Well, I had no choice but to give those giveaways to the agents anyway… And that’s that. Good thing it did not last as loong as I expected. And no one got hurt.
 
I can handle humiliation sometimes, because I am humble… ANG LAYO, TOL
 
Never the mind…
 
Anyway:  
  
 
 
 
 
 
KAWAII!!

Decisions and addictions

October 10, 2008

I would trade any work day to this kind of view any day.

Routine. Sometimes, it is somehow tiring to do the same old thing that you do everyday of your life. Actually, I plan on changing my daily scene sometime this November / December. A hard earned vacation to somewhere solemn with friends or relatives maybe. I plan to go to a beach like Subic (I wish) or to baguio or somewhere else away from the City. I need to unwind and end this year fine.

This has not been my year. But I already passed one of the hardest parts of my life, and I think I can carry on.

Change and the decisions i’ve got to make dawn my next year. HA! it is kind of wierd for me to plan this long ahead of time. I’ve never done it before - or rather tried to do it to no avail - and I plan to make this first one memorable.

Enough senti for now. Speaking of Senti… 

Meet The DotA allstars new Hero additions 

Alleria, Windrunner and Capt. Obvious, Admiral Proudmoore

 I don’t know why but Alleria is appealing to me, and she is fun to use. Whilst Admiral Proudmoore is… er…. havent tried him yet.

  Yeah! I pawn!

What Tarot card are you?

October 6, 2008

You Are The Hanged Man

You represent the seeking of enlightenment and spiritual clarity.
You tend to confuse others, but your oddities seem deeply satisfying.
Self sacrifice is easy for you, especially if it makes you a better person in the end.
You are the type of person who is very in touch with your soul and inner spirit.

Your fortune:

Right now is a good time for reflection and meditation.
You should stop resisting the problems in your life, and let yourself be vulnerable to them.
You may need to sacrifice something important to you to move ahead in your life.
Accept your destiny with courage, and learn to let go of what you think you need.

 True, so very true.
