Pennies in the Well – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Well, it's been nearly a pandemic since last we chatted.  But huzzah!  It is happening!  It's a short episode because I'm exploring something new and weird.  This discussion on Arcanum (what is Arcanum?  well, listen and learn and discover that it's nothing new, but perhaps conveniently labelled) was not only recorded for here, as audio, but also livestreamed on YouTube! 

That's right, if you're inclined you can watch me babble instead of just listening to it.  And yeah, it's a rough episode because being watched is so much stranger than just being listened to.

Much love, fellow seekers.

Blessings of the wyrd and wyld to you.

Violet.

Greetings and salutations, to one and to all,

You could say that this episode is a part 2 to episode 49, expanding into some specifics around places to employ that REAL connected communication.  But since it was planned first, is it really part 2?  It's a more tangential relationship, I think, though still around communication.

We discuss 3 invitations/challenges on communication:

1) accepting apologies

2) letting people be in a difficult space, holding space for them and reflecting

3) witnessing people as they truly are

Good times ending with difficult times. 

With love, service, and the blessings of the deep and wild ~the Abysmal Witch

Merry Yule!

This surprise abysmal witch mini-sode is brought to you by the desire to give a gift to everyone this Yule season.  I'm offering a course on Practical Qabala that is free for anyone registering by March 15, 2017.  Check it out at http://www.terraarcanum.org/qabala-t/.  

There's also some tidbit thoughts around hosting your own teas, the joys of retreating from the world and some snow love.

Blessings of the deep and wild to you all!

Well, just goes to show that we never know what the future will bring.  Welcome to Episode 40 of Pennies in the Well.  The episode that wasn't sure it would ever be.   Mabon starts us off, as does a discussion of the need for reclusion.  Then a jaunt in making beds the magical way, a bit of a blather on doing ritual with an hourglass for timing and fun (This Ritual Has 27 Minutes, so Canadian of me, eh?) and finishing with Part 2 of the Wake World by Aleister Crowley.   Happy listening!

Can you believe how long it's been since my last episode?  Yes, so can I.  Time flies when you've too much on the go.  And even when there's less.  Regardless, here and now we are, with a fresh episode for your listening pleasure?  perusal?  propinquity?  (I'm not even sure what that means but it was fun to type.) We start with an exploration of one way to approach prioritizing in your life. Then there's a break for Fruitcakes, the Jimmy Buffet song, for reasons that are important personally.   I share a brand new project that is at its first and beginning, a birthday gift to my coven mate, though if it becomes useful and used, it shall last longer than the year I've paid for the domain name.  :)  www.manstealingcoven.com  C'mon, you know you wanna look. This episode is brought to us by the Hanged Man and Kenaz. And we conclude with a rousing rendition of Part 1 of Crowley's Wake World.   Enjoy! Saturn,The Abysmal Witch.

AND BETSY TINNEY But I get ahead of myself.  Welcome to Episode 38 of Pennies in the Well.  We shall not speak again of Episode 37.  It shall be as one that never happened, and that is for the good. Episode 38 looks at the relationship we have with our bodies, starting from our sexual connection to ourselves and travelling from there as well as a Mission Magical segment on reflecting on all the feel good moments of the day. This episode was brought to us by The Hanged Man and the Wyrd stone (yes, the wyrd stone is not a traditional futhark concept, but it's in that rune set and it's what I drew, so there it be). And then the episode ends with Gentle Storm from Betsy Tinney's new album "Release the Cello" which is fabulous and you should go download it right now.

Merry meet and merry talking!  Not that it's been awhile but wow, when did you last see a podcast from here in your feed? It's an odd episode, tossing out a few thoughts and sharing some stories on a certain acceptable level of madness that we should well embrace, in my opinion followed by some meandering thought exploration of service and master/slave dynamic and what that can mean in a spiritual context. The show finishes out with "No Place Like Home" from Marianas Trench, a band I've become exceedingly fond of.  It's an even better song when you've listened to the album as it embraces components of previous songs in its making. Have missed you somewhat fiercely.Saturn
