Happy Halloween! (Samhain Blessing)

***I found this great blessing on a fellow homeschoolers blog. http://www.ninnynoodlenoo.com/blog

Dancing ’round the flame of Summer’s end
sparks of golden yellow celebrate Samhain.

Twirling around tossing leaves in the air
laughing and giggling while catching them in our hair.

The last harvest is in as turns the new year
while the chill of Yule draws ever so near.

The dead will join our festive feasts,
giving glimpses of our past, present and future feats.

Come young maidens, mothers and crones
Let the whispers of spirits rattle your bones.

Embrace the silence of the coming dark
and join the Sabbat’s circle with open mind and open heart.

Raising Peace

The wonderful Reverend Kat Hawbaker has introduced me to this fantastic duo Emma's Revolution. I have listened to this cd almost constantly since I got it.
My kids love it and this morning we did a peace dance to the song in the following video 'Keep on Movin Forward' We have made up movements and then we "move forward" in a peace march around our home. What a wonderful way to start the day!!!

Meditate (or dance) your peace, Jesse
