HeathenPrayers For Life
Dec 13, 202300:31:53Tap to summarizeDanielle Dulsky shares her new book Bones & Honey: A Heathen Prayer Book. Heathen is another word for dweller of the hearth. This devotional book is filled with prayers, stories, and poetry inspired by nature and paganism. It offers a way to heal from modernity using spiritual nourishment, spellwork, and eco-devotional language. You can read it slowly or all at once, and it’s perfect for anyone seeking daily spiritual inspiration. In her book “Bones & Honey,” Danielle Dulsky delves into the growing trend of people embracing a slower, more mindful way of living that is rooted in sustainability and a deep connection with the Earth. Through the exploration of thirteen archetypes and their corresponding themes, such as the Mountain Mage (representing solitude), the Bone-Witch (symbolizing grief), the Heathen Queen (embodying empowerment), and the Shepherd (reflecting nurturing), Dulsky invites readers to embark on a journey towards the “third road”- a path that emerges from the tension between opposing forces. With its rich symbolism and insightful wisdom, “Bones & Honey” offers a guide to a more meaningful and fulfilling life that is in harmony with nature. In the practice of Danielle, the use of “bones” and “honey” is quite common. Bones refer to the remains that are left after an initiation when everything else falls apart. They are associated with darkness, death, and dying. Honey, on the other hand, is a symbol of life’s sweetness, golden medicine, and a promise of renewal. In witchcraft, art, and life, it is essential to understand and embrace both aspects. We must acknowledge the transient nature of our existence and have the wisdom to appreciate and celebrate the beauty of our time on this planet. Bones & Honey is arranged into the following thirteen books that are organized around specific archetypes and their themes: Book of Stars: Prayers for Hope’s Troublemakers, Impossible Freaks, and Stubborn Visionaries Book of Wild Lovers: Prayers for Lust, Seduction, and Majestic Relatedness Book of the Bone-Witch: Prayers for Grievers, Death Walkers, and Shadow Kin Book of the Heathen Queen: Prayers for Empowerment, Sovereignty, and Truth Telling Book of the Moon: Prayers for Secret Keepers, Midnight Poets, and Fringe Dwellers Book of the Mountain Mage: Prayers for Sacred Solitude, Transformation, and Inner Alchemy Book of the Wounded Healer: Prayers for Heartache, Healing, and the Shining Self Book of the Nameless Grandmothers: Prayers for Ancestral Healing, Lineage Exploration, and Forgiveness Book of the Pagan Warrioress: Prayers for Battle, Bone Gathering, and Rough Beauty Book of the Botanical Babe: Prayers for Innocents, Beginnings, and Wild Children Book of the Shepherd: Prayers for Nurturing, Self-Love, and Space Tending Book of Shape-Shifters: Prayers for Time Weavers, Human Evolution, and Strange Futures Book of Bones and Honey: Prayers for the Bittersweetness of a Most Heathen Life Danielle believes in the power of the wild feminine and human-to-nature intimacy. She is the author of The Holy Wild: A Heathen Bible for the Untamed Woman and Woman Most Wild: Three Keys to Liberating the Witch Within. She translates the wild feminine into motherhood, magick, multimedia art, and teachings of embodied spirituality, writing, and movement alchemy. Danielle is a Celtic free-style Witch, a lover of Irish Paganism, an E-RYT500 and YACEP through Yoga Alliance, a mist-dweller, and a shadow-walker. May all beings come home to the wilds. www.danielledulsky.com The post HeathenPrayers For Life appeared first on Monique Chapman.

Sixth dimension teaching can help you now. Shares empowering insights and revelations from six-dimensional Sirian Light Emissaries to help us understand the darkness and focus on light for all humanity and the Earth. The current global landscape is marked by several significant developments, such as the ongoing efforts to merge the human mind with artificial intelligence, the disclosure of extraterrestrial life, and the weakening hold of dark forces on our planet and humanity. These events are shaping the world we live in and will undoubtedly significantly impact our future. Are you ready to take your consciousness to the next level? If so, I have some amazing Sirian guidance to help you survive our imminent collective ascension. Let’s awaken en masse and experience a new level of awareness together! In 1996, Patricia Cori had a transformative experience while visiting the Julia Set crop circle in England. During this event, she underwent a galactic out-of-body journey that awakened her to a group of interdimensional light beings known as the Sirian High Council. For over 25 years, she has acted as their scribe, sharing the teachings and insights of these six-dimensional Sirian Light Emissaries to assist humanity as we merge into the fourth dimension and confront our collective karma—this source of much of the dramatic events currently unfolding around the world. In her messages from higher realms, Cori shares new revelations that confirm the truth of past prophecies and offer fresh visions for humanity. Her messages are empowering, urging readers to confront the darkness fearlessly, gain a deeper understanding, and focus on the light that can bring hope and healing to all beings on this planet. The messages also stress the vital role humans play as guardians of the Earth and offer sound guidance on navigating the collective ascension and global awakening that is fast approaching. Drawing on the wisdom of the Sirians, Cori’s messages provide a roadmap for surviving and thriving in the new era of consciousness that is dawning. The discussions by the Sirians provide insight into the current state of affairs and touch upon various pressing issues of our time, such as the integration of the human mind with artificial intelligence, ET disclosure, cloning, the temporal shift, and the weakening of dark forces’ hold on our planet and humanity. We talk about Explanation of the Sirian High Council The Blue Sirians AI, Borgs, and Human2.0 The electromagnetic grid around planet Earth How Big Pharma took over the world Media manipulation over human perception Mass mind control Bioengineering and AI The dumbing down of the population Time mutation Parallel lives and worlds In these times of great turmoil, where the battle between positive and negative forces is being waged on all fronts, Cori reminds us to find solace in the knowledge that the Sirian High Council had foreseen and communicated to us that this period of immense upheaval would mark the final stage of our transition from a state of darkness into one of illuminated consciousness and the light of planetary renewal. As we witness the struggles and challenges around us, it is essential to remember that this is part of a more extensive process of transformation and growth, one that we are all a part of and that will ultimately lead to a brighter future for ourselves and our world.

Transcribe →Magic of the Orphic Hymns
Oct 13, 202300:36:18Tap to summarizeRonnie Pontiac discusses his new book, The Magic of the Orphic Hymns: A New Translation for the Modern Mystic. Tamra Lucid and Ronnie Pontiac present new literary translations of the Orphic Hymns that reveal their power to attune the reader to the sacred presence of the Orphic Mysteries and the higher order of nature. These translations restore important esoteric details and correspondences about the being or deity to which each hymn is addressed, offering a deeper understanding of these ancient texts. The famous philosopher Marsilio Ficino once wrote that the Orphic Hymns were the most powerful form of magic. These hymns were not just poems but were used for meditation, rituals, and ceremonies. Each hymn was dedicated to a specific deity or virtue, like Athena, Zeus, Love, Justice, or Equality. However, the original hymns were written formulaically, which made them difficult to translate. Tamra Lucid and Ronnie Pontiac have brought back the magical essence of the mystery cults of the past through their new versions of the teletai. They have included important hidden details and correspondences about the being or deity to which each hymn is addressed. They have also added a new version of a lost hymn called “Number” and messages that were inscribed on golden leaves meant to be passports for the dead. These reinventions preserve the original magical intent and mysticism of the teletai. Furthermore, the authors reveal the power of each hymn to attune the reader to the sacred presence of the Orphic Mysteries and the higher order of nature. They also demonstrate how the Orphic Hymns are a book of hours or a calendar of life, covering every event, from birth to death, and guiding us through every experience of human existence as necessary and holy. We talk about The true mission of our souls Who was Orpheus The counter-culture of the Orphic Hymns The Roman Empress Black Julia Marsilio Ficino Black Athena Sator – half goat half human The Underworld True Gods do not sacrifice animals Tamra Lucid, a documentary film producer, including the Emmy-nominated End of the Line: The Women of Standing Rock, is author of Making the Ordinary Extraordinary: My Seven Years in Occult Los Angeles with Manly Palmer Hall. She and Ronnie are founding members of the experimental rock band Lucid Nation. Ronnie Pontiac worked as Manly P. Hall’s research assistant, screener, and designated substitute lecturer for seven years. Author of American Metaphysical Religion, he wrote the biographical introduction to Letters to the Sage. He’s written for several esoteric journals and has produced award-winning documentaries. The post Magic of the Orphic Hymns appeared first on Monique Chapman.
