Young Souls Old

 Sometimes our children are wiser than we. I asked aloud, "I wonder if the gods were drunk when they made the first platypus ?" My boy looked at me, shocked and replied "Mom, is your memory that bad? The animals were here first, remember? A cow woke up Buri from the ice block."

We were feeding seagulls and attempting to feed ravens when my boy coaxed three little ravens over. He whispered to them "Mimir Mimin" and the birds turned about quite quickly. Then he said to me, "I bet Huginn and Muninn taught them about Mimir. Can you imagine how smart Odin's ravens are after all these years? I bet they know every language on Earth. "

Today we discovered two more badly weathered rocks with Runic inscriptions upon them along a lake called The Pond by locals, or Trout River Pond by Parks Canada. I wished aloud I could know every language in the world. "I guess you should ask the Ravens then, duh?" my grandson told me.

Karma and the Witch

I just wanted people to think about Karma for a moment. I used to envision people's vehicles breaking down whenever I was upset with them, thinking nothing could happen to me because I didn't have a vehicle  of my own. When I did get a car, however it was constantly needing to be fixed.

Sometimes Karma works differently. For example I don't slander people. I have kept my mouth shut recently because of needing to keep my job when my conscience screamed from inside that was wrong, what a fellow employ did in lying about someone else. Now that employee is lying about me. So I need to not worry about clearing my own name but the name of the one first sullied by my silence.

Now some very evil, manipulative people seem to get away with things they truly shouldn't. Don't fret over this. It is when they least expect it that Karma will strike, like a Cobra in the dark. Be the good force that acts as a catalyst for good things to happen to good people and bad thing to happen to bad people.

Is witchcraft evil? Absolutely no! Can you harm someone with witchcraft? Absolutely yes! Can you help people with witch craft? Absolutely yes!  Should you? Who am I to say?  Is it wrong to say nothing to abominable people when you know death or disaster is at their door? No, because that would interfere with Karma.

Seedlings by me, Gipsie Lee

We are made from trees,       So it shouldn't be                So hard to see                    That we are seeds

Like small twisting flags,     Like horns upon a stag,  They call us hag;                   Silk they call rag.

Our earth mother smiles    Our sun father whiles         We roam for miles             Then fit like tiles.

Our place on the floor,         We create a green door    Gifts not a chore                 Life to explore.
