Llewellyn Worldwide - Articles: Harvesting & Preserving By the Moon

My neighbor started growing his own fruits and vegetables. For him, it was not real easy, but worth the effort. Unfortunately, I do not have a green thumb. I can't even keep fake plants alive! But I do believe this is a very good idea, especially for those who have earth abilities. ~ Tater

Harvesting & Preserving By the Moon

There’s no question that home gardening has exploded in popularity in recent years. With rising food prices and a rising need to reconnect with nature, growing your own food can be an ideal two-for-one hobby. It’s wonderful to watch once purely ornamental gardens being transformed into berried hedgerows and vegetable patches that can provide for the kitchen table all year round. You might think eating from your garden all year is practically impossible, but think again. The key to success is in preserving the fruits of your labor.

When One Door Closes… « Tarot by Elizabeth

I wanted to share this article by Elizabeth. She has a very good point that disappointment has an upside. It provides an opportunity for transformation. We can change and disappointment is the catalyst for that change.

When One Door Closes…

by Elizabeth

The Five of Cups is about disappointment, loss, what “might have been” and crying over spilled milk. It is the card that sees the world as half empty instead half full. If the stricken looking little bunny would just look behind him, he would see that there are two cups that still remain standing.

Steven Tyler Shows Off His Broken Face, Promises He's Still Sober

NBC

As Spinner recently reported, Aerosmith's Steven Tyler had a nasty fall in a hotel bathrooin Paraguay over the weekend. The singer was rushed to the hospital where he underwent treatment for a busted lip, cut forehead and two broken front teeth. And from the ghastly picture that Tyler sent NBC's 'Today Show,' it looks like the frontman may have rocked a little too hard while singing in the shower.

Speculation arose about Tyler's sobriety after the incident caught wind around the world, but the 'Idol' judge assured Matt Lauer that this had nothing to do with substance abuse, and everything to do with dehydration after food poisoning.

CITI Bank Arrests

CITI Bank Arrests

Big brother bank has your money and he won't give it back.

"When the power of love overcomes the love of power, we will know peace." - Jimi Hendrix

For those who can't view the video, a group of 30 people are locked inside a Citi Bank, detained against their will. According the video and reports, these people were attempting to close their accounts as a form of protest.

Near the end of the video, a lady standing outside the bank is asked if she was inside. She says yes, I'm a customer. Holds up her banking info (presumably, I can't read the paper and the cops didn't bother to either). She is immediately detained by a guy in plain clothes and other cops come and surround her and drag her away as she repeats "I'm a customer!"

Yes/No Questions – A List Of All 78 Tarot Cards As Yes-No Answers | Tarot Elements

I find that how I react to the card helps me to determine whether it is a yes or no card. But if I am seeking yes or no answers, I just use the choices spread to get a clearer perspective in order to determine the right course of action. - Tater

How to determine yes/no tarot cards to suit yourself

I ask a yes/no question and draw a single tarot card. This can be a jumper from the pack, one drawn randomly from a pack spread out on a table, or just a plain shuffle and cut.

The only thing I then do is determine the yes/no answer based on my own positive or negative association with the card.

For example, the 6 of Wands would be a yes, while the 10 of Swords would be a no. It’s that simple.

New York priest accused of cashing dead teacher's pension checks - Yahoo! News

It's nice to see how Church leaders weather the tough economy. This priest was cashing a dead woman's pension checks while lying about her death for more than 10 years! On top of that, he would preach about God to other customers at the bank in the process. I guess he had to skate over that verses about not stealing or bearing false witness. Disturbing. - Tater

He would cash the checks, which amounted to about $241,000, often at a local bank, investigators said. Investigators said they interviewed bank staff, who recalled Rosa often preached about God to other customers while waiting in line.

The Phoenix Temple, Tantra, and Sacred Sexuality

The Phoenix Temple, Tantra, and Sacred Sexuality

Living in Phoenix (Land of the rising sun), I realize this is such a spiritual place. But, even though it is so spiritual, we must endure the battles for religious freedom. The events that occur at the temple brought harm to none yet they were raided and the sacred temple, desecrated. But those who brought desecration, will themselves be desecrated in accordance with the laws of the universe, which brings me great comfort. - Tater

Recently, in Phoenix, Arizona, a group of people appear to have allegedly used the concepts of Tantra, goddess worship, and sexual healing as a cover for illegal acts: prostitution. They called themselves the Phoenix Goddess Temple, and after six months of undercover work (I wonder how many hundreds of thousands of dollars that cost the people of Phoenix and whether the money could have been better-spent elsewhere?), the police busted the church (yes, they were a legal church) and had some of the people being arrested do a “perp walk” for TV cameras. A brief report from the police’s side can be found here. Jason Pitzi-Waters, in his Pagan-oriented blog, The Wild Hunt, gives another view of what happened at this LINK, and he follows up HERE.

Kiss My A** « Ward Anderson

Kiss My A** « Ward Anderson

It's time for club owners to face the facts, if you want to reach out to the "clean" crowd, have a family night or something, but leave your main comedy shows alone. My favorite act of censorship began in a comedy club that began not allowing the comics to drink alcohol on stage because they felt it sent a "negative message" and yet the club had a full bar menu available and a two drink minimum. What kind of negative message are they worried about sending? The guy on stage likes to drink like everyone else in the crowd? Then the club progressed to censoring the language of the comics and topics discussed. The club is now a lame duck. People who go to comedy clubs are not looking for Mickey Mouse cookie cutter comedy. The whole reason they are out at the comedy club is let go of the cookie cutter lifestyle of the day world and laugh their asses off. Now I'm not saying that comics HAVE to be dirty, but it is our job to expose the dark dirty areas of the mundane life. Thanks Ward for telling it like it is.

I toured 49 weeks on the road last year, traveling to 38 states and 5 Canadian provinces. I can tell you first-hand that the average comedy club audience does not want a watered-down, sanitized, or censored comedy show. In fact, I’ve been amazed at the fact that many crowds have caused me to push my otherwise PG-13 show straight into R-rated territory, made clear by their overzealous reaction to the dirtiest jokes and tepid reaction to the same routines when cleaned-up for certain situations. Hands down, the more “adult” the show, the better the response from the crowd…and that includes when I was simply witness to other comedians performances and not just my own experiences on stage.

Yet I’m amazed to find more and more comedy clubs censoring the comedians who work there. That’s exactly what it is, by the way: censorship. To call it anything else is an insult to both the performer and the audience. It’s a decision made by nothing but a combination of ignorance and arrogance, by the way.

Full Moon in Aries: October 11, 2011 - Astrological Musings

Full Moon in Aries: October 11, 2011 - Astrological Musings

A time of polarity between pushing forward into new territory and the desire to not "rock the boat". Not a fun time, but it provides the possibility of inner balance of ideals. - Tater (Real Spells - a Magick resource)

Full Moon in Aries: October 11, 2011

posted by Lynn Hayes | 8:01am Monday October 10, 2011

The Aries Full Moon occurs on the evening of October 11th. As in any Full Moon, the Aries Moon opposes the Libra Sun, bringing the Aries/Libra polarity into the forefront of our awareness.

The Aries/Libra dynamic balances the need for self-orientation (Aries) with a focus on The Other (Libra). Libra itself seeks to achieve balance, and in that quest there is often a loss of the desired balance as the quest for harmony, especially in relationships, takes precedence over personal needs. Aries maintains the focus on personal needs and is less interested in achieving balance.

Scared Bros At A Haunted House

Scared Bros At A Haunted House

I love all the different types of reactions of people caught off guard. Even though they, obviously, know they are in a haunted house and expect to be spooked, they don't know that their reactions will be captured. Not knowing what they are actually seeing, it amazes me how most of them huddle together for protection from something they know won't hurt them. Plus, it's hard to look cool, peeing in your pants. :) - Tater

Scared Bros At A Haunted House

Culture Buzz These hidden camera shots from Nightmares Fear Factory in Niagara Falls, CA tell me three things. 1. Bros love going to haunted houses together. 2. Bros are easy to spook. 3. We should call them “scarebros.”
