I have been busy, real busy. Reading, researching and getting sick. Got alot more books and even a CD that helps with a Shaman Journey, which is where alot of my research is centered. It did actually have an effect on me, but not my fiance. I haven't been able to devote enough time to do a full journey.

Other than that, sorry for being absent. With my LJs and message board communities I got distracted. How is everyone?

I was born in New York, but grew up Texas gulf coast my whole life. So being up here for a white winter is an experience!

Today, I felt a well of nature's inspiritation surge forth and burst into play and mischeif, as if joining the unruly games of the faye. Yes, the Unseely Court is at play, a very dangerous one to dance with, yet still I danced in the snow with Drasken. When I closed my eyes and held my arms wide, I saw all white for a few minutes and then a orange orb appeared in my mind's eye. So odd.

Today I sat down and lined up all my stones. Moss Agate, Amethyst, Orange Calcite, Carnelian, Hematite, Lapis Lazuli, Moonstone, Rhodonite, Sodalite, and Tiger's Eye. I meditated with each one in a 'rainbow' order. Afterwards I gave them a gentle bath in lightly salted water. From that session, I seem to be more in tune and sensitive with water aligned receptive stones.

I am hoping to continue expanding my collection. Garnet due to a strange dream revolving around it. Amazonite, I have been drawn to it.

I am less then a month away from 22 years. I have been spiritual for 10 years. Practicing the use of personal energy for 4 years. I am now learning magic and very new to the magical community.

Though I am generally shy and self conscious, I am open to all sorts of questions. I am hoping to make friends and learn from this community.

Unfortunately I am using a tempermental PSP that makes browsing difficult. Hopefully I will have a computer soon.

Blessings and Well Wishes
