Hay Gina, Just thought i would stop by and see how you were doing. Hope all is well with you and yours. Miss chatting with you but i have been very busy lately.
May the Lord and Lady bless you and yours in all you do."And ye shall say these words... I will love and harm none. I will live, love die, and live again. I will meet, remember, know, and embrace once more. For the free will of ALL, and with harm to None as i will it now is done So mote it be!" Silver RavenWolf
I wanted to be as fair as possible about passing on the responsibility and fun of continuing our story> I originally wanted to pass the staff to the first person I saw on line........as my brother did with me. I did pass the staff to some one awhile back, but, the staff was not received.
So, I chose a different method of passing the staff. I pulled up the members and had my son chose for me. He first chose page 5, then I asked him to chose a member off that page. He chose you.
And the story continues..........I hope!!!!
I pass the staff to you!!!
Please visit "round Robbin" in the forums. Read from the begin and then just continue the story from where I left off by adding a reply. Have fun!!!!!
Awen
May the Full Moon grace your dreams and bless you with light and love.

I have added a few new categories in the forums and will be adding a few more. Please feel free to start your own discussions and share your studies or interesting finds here. If you would like me to add a new category please feel free to send me word.
There is now a place to chat much like IM. I hope you will have fun with that.
I have also worked the home page a bit, so when you add music it will be featured on the play list there along with every one else's.
This is your place to learn and help others to grow, don't be shy, ask questions, and share your knowledge in the forums.
Thanks for joining the sight.
In the Name of All that IS, Danu.
Mabon, (pronounced MAY-bun, MAY-bone, MAH-boon, or MAH-bawn) is the Autumn Equinox. The Autumn Equinox divides the day and night equally, and we all take a moment to pay our respects to the impending dark. We also give thanks to the waning sunlight, as we store our harvest of this year's crops. The Druids call this celebration, Mea'n Fo'mhair, and honor the The Green Man, the God of the Forest, by offering libations to trees. Offerings of ciders, wines, herbs and fertilizer are appropriate at this time. Wiccans celebrate the aging Goddess as she passes from Mother to Crone, and her consort the God as he prepares for death and re-birth.
Various other names for this Lesser Wiccan Sabbat are The Second Harvest Festival, Wine Harvest, Feast of Avalon, Equinozio di Autunno (Strega), Alben Elfed (Caledonii), or Cornucopia. The Teutonic name, Winter Finding, spans a period of time from the Sabbat to Oct. 15th, Winter's Night, which is the Norse New Year.
At this festival it is appropriate to wear all of your finery and dine and celebrate in a lavish setting. It is the drawing to and of family as we prepare for the winding down of the year at Samhain. It is a time to finish old business as we ready for a period of rest, relaxation, and reflection.

May your Mabon be memorable, and your hearts and spirits be filled to overflowing!""
