Blessings Darlings!
Because the Gods have a huge sense of humor ... just when I decide to start blogging more regularly, we get a computer problem. Not on MY computer this time, but on the computer we use for development of products/customer support for our business.
So instead of doing anything proactive on, well, anything at all, I'm spending several days this week driving to, and then home from, Washington, DC. I dropped off the computer on Monday, they MAY have it finished later today, so I'm not sure when I'll be driving back to pick it up.
And that pick up trip that is causing a problem with Job #2. Which I'm supposed to be at tonight. And tomorrow night. And I don't know which of those evenings I'll still be out driving the poor beast home.
So, while I called out of Job #2 for tonight, I might be free to work tonight, but not tomorrow night, which I have NOT called out for.
Our computer repair shop is GREAT, and turns things around quickly, but some things just take time - like back ups of a computer that has this much stuff on it. I cannot and do not fault them for any of this.
I'm just whining. It's my blog, after all, I can do what I want here.
At least I can do it when I'm not driving to and from DC.

Election Magic
Blessings, Darlings!
I'm blogging this as the 3rd US presidential debate between Clinton and Trump is going on. I'm not watching it. I'm reading friends live tweet it, drinking cocoa, and coaching a friend thru' her first spellwork (in PMs, tho' she's just 10 miles from here, because the Spawn has the car). And I'm writing this blog.
So, yeah, I'm not watching the debate. I know who I'm going to vote for/against/with/holding my nose/whatever. And I'm letting the Presidential race take its own course/train wreck/reality show. Me, I'm working magic on the down ticket.
And doing it at work.
Yes, I could do a honey jar at home. OTOH, what I'm doing is a sort of sweetening spell at a restaurant, on a major highway. I can do that woowoo I do there, and more directly reach travelers going all over the country. Mostly I'm working to swing down ticket voters in NC who pass thru', but as surely as the sun appears to rise in the east and set in the west, I'm not limiting myself to that one state.
Now I'm sure that I'm not the only person throwing roots at the election. I'm sure that there are folks out there doing the 109th Psalm against the same folks I'm sweetening customers for, and plenty of other folks doing workings for the same candidates I'm working for.
Time will tell who's harnessed the most energy, worked most efficiently, involved the best set of magic helping spirits, etc.
Buckle your seatbelts, darlings, it's going to be a bumpy and exciting ride.

Tea for the Tillerman
Blessings, Darlings!
Samhain's coming, as most of all y'all know. So I've been upping my ancestral honoring game - spending more time a their altar, listening more to their voices. (See? My life isn't all Morrigan all the time!)
Which is not to say that the ancestors are any more love-and-light than the Morrigan is. Yes, the recent ancestors love us, and all of them want us to have success in life (and thus keep their line going) ... they now have that 'one step removed, looking it all over' view on life. And, MY ancestors are into capital T Tea. 100% Truth. They don't pull punches. They expect full disclosure from me - yeah, they already know what is going on in my life, but they want to be 100% sure that *I* am aware, awake, and handling my responsibilities.
Since I'm here being 100% with you - they aren't always happy with me.
But without that 100% pure Tea, that full-awareness/awake Truth, you can't navigate your life. You need those set points, those rock-solid landmarks, so you can travel the path you want and know when you're off course.
It doesn't mean that you don't have any UPG (unverified personal gnosis). It means that you acknowledge what is UPG and what is, well, canon or has verifiable history behind it. The former you don't tell others to steer by - they are not THEIR landmarks. The latter, others don't have to steer by, either, of course. But all you can do is point out known reefs/where the North star is/etc. What they do with those verifiable facts is up to them. They CAN throw them out.
Admittedly, I do tend to point and laugh when they do and end up with problems after I rather bluntly told them about the rocks ahead.
But what THEY tell THEIR Tillerman is up to them. What my ancestors call for me to do, what *I* call for myself and all y'all to do, is for us to give my/your Tillerman as close to 100% Pure Tea as you possibly can. Fact check. Check yourself. Check your assumptions. And 100% venture out there, keeping that T supply full.
