2nd Day of Christmas

I missed posting on the first day. Mea Culpa.

My meditation yesterday was brief, but useful. The theme of "Behold! I make all things new!" resonated with me. I realized several things about myself, and the reasons why I was taking some actions that puzzled the folks around me.

Today's Theme deals with practicality, the senses, and ambition. It's a good theme for me today. Got some practical things done, like insurance on my new car. Still have to do the meditation, though.

And, Tomorrow's Theme

I will be out of town over the weekend, so Friday I'll try to post the weekend's themes.

Also, today is the Feast of St. John. A happy St. John's Day, everyone.

100 books to read

I went and found this over on my old livejournal. I've decided to start working on the list again.  I have read a few of the books since I posted the original list in July 2008, but I'll update it as I go along. "Someone" reckons that the average adult has only read 6 of the top 100 books they’ve printed. It's not the Big Read though -- they don't publish books, and they've only featured these books so far. In any event... 1) Look at the list and bold those you have read. 2) Italicize those you started but did not finish. 3) Underline the books you LOVE. 4) Reprint this list in your own blog so we can try and track down these people who’ve read 6 or less and force books upon them.

Fire Wand & Golden Dawn

I have completed the construction of my fire wand, finally. I'll be consecrating it this weekend/next week, either on Sunday or Tuesday. Haven't decided which day is more auspicious, yet. I'm about to start taking Golden Dawn degrees (about = sometime this year I get my 0=0). I've gotten on a GD forum, and they're perplexed that I've started with my weapons already. I'm simply working on them as the HGA directs. Edit: Had it explained to me by a member of the forum. These are supposed to be adept's (5=6) tools, so making them early is jumping the gun a bit. I'll simply have to make others/reconsecrate them when that time comes. The Abremelin working is going well. I agree with Steven Guth that the working should take longer than not. The purification process is intensifying. I've moved from simple prayers morning and evening to an Invocation of the Archangels, Pater Noster, Heschayist practice, Pater Noster, Dismissal. I'm actuall...
