HOLIDAY FUN FACTSWinter Festivals From the Past and PresentCelebrations during the mid-winter season were common, even before Christmaswas celebrated on December 25.Christmas was once a moveable feast celebrated many different times during the year. The choice of December 25 was made by the Pope Julius I in the fourth century AD because this coincided with the pagan rituals of Winter Solstice, or Return of the Sun. The intent was to replace the pagan celebration with the Christian one.In 1752, 11 days were dropped from the year when the switch was from the Julian calendar to the Gregorian calendar. The December 25 date was effectively moved11 days backwards. Some Christian church sects, called old calendarists, still celebrate Christmas on January 7 (previously Dec. 25 of the Julian calendar.)Many of the traditions associated with Christmas (giving gifts, lighting a Yule log, singing carols, decorating an evergreen) hark back to older religions.Some traditions described here are reminiscent of modern day customs, and others, like the Festival of the Radishes in Mexico, are bizarre and fascinating. You are invited to explore the rituals of past and present on these pages.Winter SolsticeWinter Solstice celebrations are held on the eve of the shortest day of the year. During the first millennium in what is today Scotland, the Druids celebrated Winter Solstice honoring their Sun God and rejoicing his return as the days got longer, signaling the coming of spring. Also called Yule, this tradition still lives today in the Wiccan traditions and in many cultures around the world.A huge log -- the Yule Log -- is brought into an outdoor clearing and becomes part of a great bonfire. Everyone dances and sings around the fire. All the noise and great excitement is said to awaken the sun from its long winter sleep, hurrying spring on its way as the cycle begins once again and the days grow longer than the nights.Dosmoche -- Tibetan Celebration of the Dying YearLasting five days, this festival centers around a magical pole covered with stars, crosses, and pentagrams made of string. Dancers dress up in hideous masks to frighten away the evil spirits for the coming year. Feasting and prayers fill the days and the finale is when the pole is torn down by the townsfolk.Feast of the Ass -- Middle Ages ChristianAt one time this was a solemn celebration reenacting the flight of the holy family into Egypt and ending with Mass in the church. The festival became very popular as it transformed into a humorous parody in which the ass was led into the church and treated as an honored guest while the priest and the congregation all brayed like asses. The Church suppressed it in the fifteenth century, although it remained popular and did not die out until years later.La Befana -- Italy's Santa ClausLa Befana, a kindly witch, rides a broomstick down the chimney to deliver toys into the stockings of Italian children. The legends say that Befana was sweeping her floors when the three Wise Men stopped and asked her to come to see the Baby Jesus. "No," she said, "I am too busy." Later, she changed her mind but it was too late. So, to this day, she goes out on Christmas Eve searching for the Holy Child, leaving gifts for the "holy child" in each household.Butter Sculpture Festival -- Buddhist New YearTo celebrate the New Year in Tibet, Buddhist monks create elaborate yak-butter sculptures depicting a different story or fable each year. The sculptures reach 30 feet high and are lit with special butter lamps. Awards are given for the best butter sculptures.Chaomos -- Pakistan Winter SolsticeThe ancient traditions of Pakistan pre-date the Christian era. During winter solstice, an ancient demigod returns to collect prayers and deliver them to Dezao, the supreme being. During this celebrations women and girls are purified by taking ritual baths. The men pour water over their heads while they hold up bread. Then the men and boys are purified with water and must not sit on chairs until evening when goat's blood is sprinkled on their faces. Following this purification, a great festival begins, with singing, dancing, bonfires, and feasting on goat tripe and other delicacies.Ganna -- Ethiopian ChristmasLegend has it that the shepherds rejoiced when they learned of the birth of Christ and they waved their hooked staffs about and played Ganna. This is the origin of the game called Ganna that is traditionally played on Christmas Day (January 7 -- the older date of Christmas) by all the men and boys in Ethiopia.Wassailing the Apple TreesThis humorous tradition was documented in 1851 in a London Newspaper. In Devonshire, England, on Twelfth Night (January 7), the farmers get their weapons and go to their apple orchard. Selecting the oldest tree, they form a circle and chant:Here's to thee, old apple treeWhence thou mayst bud and whence thou mayst blowAnd whence thou mayst bear apples enow:Hats full, caps full,Bushels, bushels, sacks full,And my pockets full too!Huzza! Huzza!The men drink cider, make merry, and fire their weapons (charged only with powder) at the tree. They return to the home and are denied entrance no matter what the weather by the women indoors. When one of the men guesses the name of the roast that is being prepared for them, all are let in. The one who guessed the roast is named "King for the Evening" and presides over the party until the wee hours.Snap Dragon -- A Christmas GameHere's a fun one to try at your next Christmas Party. It was popular in England during the 1800's. Set brandy on fire in a bowl. Throw raisins into the flames. The party guests then take turns snatching the flaming raisins and popping them into their mouths. The flames go out as soon as the mouth shuts, so speed and dexterity are essential.SNAP DRAGONHere he comes with flaming bowl,Don't he mean to take his toll,Snip! Snap! Dragon!Take care you don't take too much,Be not greedy in your clutch,Snip! Snap! Dragon!With his blue and lapping tongueMany of you will be stung,Snip! Snap! Dragon!For he snaps at all that comesSnatching at his feast of plums,Snip! Snap! Dragon!Night of the RadishesThis unusual event takes place in Oaxaca, Mexico on December 23 each year. Itdates to the mid-nineteenth century and commemorates the introduction of the radish by the Spanish colonists. Radishes in this region grow to the size of yams but are not the rounded shape we usually see. They are twisted and distorted by growing in the rocky soil. These unusual shapes are exploited as local artisans carve them into elaborate scenes from the Bible, from history, and from the Aztec legends. Cash prizes are awarded and the evening culminates with a spectacular fireworks display.Hari-Kuyo -- Japanese Festival of the Broken NeedlesThis is a Buddhist celebration held on December 8 each year throughout Japan. It is a tradition that has been carried on since at least 400 AD. Once only observed by tailors and dressmakers, today anyone who sews participates.A special shrine is made for the needles containing offerings of food and scissors and thimbles. A pan of tofu (soybean curd) is the center of the shrine and all the broken and bent needles are inserted into it. As the needles go into the tofu, the sewer recites a special prayer in thanks for its fine service over the year. The needles find their final resting place at sea, as devotees everywhere wrap their tofu in paper and launch them out to sea.
The Think Deliver. The Channel nods a sad leave-taking to the God. We know that He chi after once again be reborn of the Divine being and the throw chi carry on. This is the time of vision, the time to relate to the Ancients who have gone on past us and the time of 'Seeing" (divination). As we manifest the Pedals of the Time, we come to identify with our own part in the eternal throw of Energy.
Encourage, it is my belief that the Circle begins to bump back inward in the wake of the Summer Solstice. One old folk belief about marriage (at the same time as radically overlooked today!) was that weddings have to endlessly be protected in the deterioration partially of the rendezvous, when that is a time equally days are being paid shorter, nights are being paid longer, the lurch is being paid colder, and we are by and large fatigued back hip, to the fervor of the build and steadfastness of the home, safe from the genre of winter's winter. But, it was careful in detail ill-fated for a bride and whet to take their vows in the waxing partially of the rendezvous, equally days are porch and warming, and our natural send is to move prevented from the family-oriented life of build and home, and to hobo and twist before a wider community. The month of May was very unsafe for weddings.
So my conceive of is that of a Circle which begins as a disc clue at Yule, and expands until it reaches its widest permission at Midsummer, globular the great local community. But from that clue into view, it begins to weaken once again, in the vastly increments as past, but inverted, until it after once again dwindles to the seed-point of Midwinter. Suitably, the Circle of blessing and refining expands and contracts on a once a year instruction, mirroring the spiritual heartbeat of our lives, our planet, and our sky-high perform. It may now be guessed that the true and all set headline for this item have to be, "The Ever-Pulsing Circle". May it for all time protect you within its circle and lift you with its vibrate.
It's the newest time of the go out with encompassing fashionable. To the same degree us Comforting North-westerner's love our shaft -- we reserve to flood it up in understanding for the long grey winters -- we do take offense to loving a bit. Subdue, it does make for excellent reading times!

Declamation written by Rufus Harrington Invocation to Horned God written by Doreen Valiente Response of the Horned God written by Paul Greenslade Consecration of the seeds written by Jim Kitson
Temple set up as follows:
Veil in northern quarter Cauldron in centre, with charcoal blocks ready lit Stereo ready with taped music A dish of corn seeds on the altar One pot of earth for each person Pomegranate on altar Candles, incense and ritual weapons as usual Floor tom-tom drum
Roles:
HPS The Goddess HP The Horned God Priest To consecrate the seeds P or PS Ritual drumming
Casting the circle:
The Circle will be cast by the HPS
The HPS will invoke the quarters: while she does so, each person should face the quarter being invoked, and direct power to the quarter with their athame (or other if they have no athame). The group should all face centre, forming a circle after the invocation to the northern quarter, and hold both arms aloft while the HPS calls upon the Lord and Lady to join with the celebrations. This completes the casting of the circle.
The Ritual:
HPS wearing black silk robe and veil stands at the altar, facing the group, who are seated. 1759The HP reads the declamation:1759
Iced legions of the damned Call and dance the songs of madness; Hollow hills re-echo to the silent cries of night, For dancing flames now turn to shadows, Winds and madness call the night, And just a single light in darkness Stands before the veil to fight. And so the Goddess stood in darkness, Tear stained cheeks lashed by rain, Turned to face the veil of darkness, Turned to face the world of pain. Alone, an outcast, branded traitor; She it was who killed the land.
To save the land from age and darkness, To save the land from fear and death, For love of life she sought to conquer, Sought to stay the hand of death.
But in her love and in her madness She summoned death into the land; Summoned death to fight the darkness, Thus it was destroyed the land.
Cracked silver lightning; shattering darkness, Revealing eyes, and visions born beyond. Iced visions of light, Echoes of dying laughter chill and cool the blood. Storm clouds tearing sky and screaming, Battles fought at heaven's gate, Fly upon the winds of madness, Seek the silver key of fate.
HPS: SILENCE! An end must be made!
For there are three great events in the life of man:
Love, Death and resurrection in the new body, and magic controls them all. For to fulfil love you must return again at the same time and place as the loved one, and you must remember and love them again. But to be reborn, you must die and be ready for a new body; and to die you must be born, and without love you may not be born, and so is formed the spiral of creation, and this is all the magics.
The group now stands, and when everyone is facing the HPS, she assumes pentagram position. The ritual drummer takes his position, and the Priest who is taking the role of the Horned God switches on the music tape, blows out the northern quarter candle and moves behind the veil. Silence while the tape of "The making of Bloduedd" is played, as this is the invocation the the Goddess in her transformation aspect. (Note: the tape is allowed to continue playing, as this is the only item on the tape, the remainder being blank.)
The HPS turns to face the altar, and holds aloft the sword. As she does so, the drummer plays a steady rhythm. The HPS moves to the centre of the circle, facing the veil; the group arrange themselves behind her, all facing the veil. The HPS points the sword at the veil, and the group hold aloft their arms for the invocation to the Horned God.
HPS says:
By the flame that burneth bright O Horned One, We call Thy name into the night, O Ancient One! Thee we invoke by the moon led sea, By the standing stone, and the twisted tree. Thee we invoke where gather Thine own, By nameless shrine, forgotten and lone. Come where the round of the dance is trod, Horn and hoof of the goat foot God! By moonlit meadow and dusky hill, When haunted wood is hushed and still, Come to the charm of the chanted prayer, As the moon bewitches the midnight air. Evoke Thy powers that potent bide, In shining stream and secret tide, In fiery flame and starlight pale, In shadowy hosts that ride the gale. And by the fern brakes, fairy haunted, Of forests wild and woods enchanted; Come O come to the heart beats drum, Come to us who gather below, When the pale white moon is climbing slow, Through the stars to the heavens height, We hear Thy hooves on the wings of night! As black tree branches shake and sigh, By joy and terror we know Thee nigh. We speak the spell Thy power unlocks, At solstice, sabbat and equinox. Word of virtue, the veil to rend, From primal dawn to the wide world's end!
(As the invocation proceeds, the drummer speeds his rhythm to suggest the sound of hoofbeats, and after the final line of the invocation, he suddenly reverts to a simple, slow four beats for the entrance of the Horned God.)
P#1 responds from behind the veil:
I am the Dread Lord of the Shadows: God of life and giver of life. I open wide the veil through which all must pass. The gate is open between the worlds And all who would enter on this night are welcome. Come spirits; departed ones; brethren from our past and present Join us in the hunt tonight.
During his response, he parts the veil, and then fastens it open in some way, as the veil between the worlds remains open until closed by the Horned God at the end of the ritual.
As he finishes speaking, he enters the Temple, and proceeds to move in a Widdershins direction, and the drummer plays a rhythm according to the speed and movement of the Horned God. The Horned God then takes the hand of one of the group (female), and she takes the hand of the next male, and so on until all the group except for the HPS and drummer are dancing with the Horned God. This represents the Wild Hunt, and the drumming and dancing should reflect the feeling of this. At a prompt from the Horned God, the group will stop dancing, and seat themselves on the floor facing inwards around the cauldron. The drummer will join them, and the HPS will bring a pot of incense, from which she will take a handful and throw it into the cauldron. She will then pass the incense to the HP, who will also throw some into the cauldron, and will pass it to his neighbor, and so on around the circle until each person has thrown some incense into the cauldron. There is now a period of meditation, where everyone thinks about the past year, and those who may have passed over during that time. It is also a time for joining with our loved ones who have gone beyond, and who we invite to return to us for the night. When the HPS feels that long enough has been spent on this part of the ritual, she will signal that everyone should end their meditation.
P#2 shall now rise (also PS#1 if designated), and approach the altar where he/they will perform the consecration of the sacred seed.
P#2 says:
Bounded by a shell then? Secure in the vice of the earth, a unity waiting.
And outside? Cold, wet loneliness, the comfort of death. And above? The agony of birth and growth, total struggle in total night.
O Gaia! Smile upon your children, set free the seed of life and joy.
So Mote It Be!
When this has been completed, P#2 takes some of the seeds, and energizes them with his own hopes and desires for the coming year, and then plants them in one of the prepared pots. The rest of the group do likewise, commencing with 1762PS#11762 if designated, and following male/female if possible. The Horned God and Goddess do not plant seeds at the altar. When the last person has planted their seeds, and all are seat-ed again, the 1762Horned God1762 approaches the altar, and slices the pomegranate in half, and holds both halves in one hand. He picks up some seeds and charges them with his hopes and desires for the coming year, but does not plant them at the altar. He holds them in his hand, and then he calls to all the spirits who followed him through from beyond the veil to return with him now, and moving in a deosil direction, circles around the Temple finally ending up beyond the veil again. He calls to the Goddess to join with him once more, and she has such love for him that she willingly leaves her life this side of the veil, and of her own free will joins once more with her consort. She rises, and goes to the altar to collect and charge her own seeds, which she then carries with her as she moves around the Temple, finally joining the Horned God behind the veil. He closes the veil between the worlds once more, and to symbolize her willing descent to the Otherworld, the Goddess eats one half of the pomegranate. She and the Horned God then plant their seeds.
The northern quarter candle is relit by the person nearest to it.
At this point, 1763PS#1 and P#21763 approach the altar, and perform the consecration of cakes and wine, in which all participate bar the HPS and P#1 behind the veil, as they are "no longer of this world". After cakes and wine, 1763HPS and P#11763 rejoin the circle for the feast, no longer "Horned God and Goddess".
TO END THE RITUAL:
Each quarter is thanked and bidden to depart by HPS All present make their farewells to each other, and leave the Temple.
Bangkok, Thailand, Dec 27, 2014 / 10:31 am (CNA/EWTN News).- The Thai Catholic bishops have declared a "Holy Year" aimed at restoring the fervor of a New Evangelization and commemorating the 350th anniversary of the first Synod of Ayutthaya in Thailand. The great jubilee will also mark the opening of the first Plenary Council of the Catholic Church in Thailand under the theme, "The Disciples of Christ Live the New Evangelization," slated from April 20-25, 2015. The bishops opened the Holy Year for Thailand striking a gong three times during a solemn Mass on Dec. 6. The congregation consisted of priests, religious and faithful gathered at Lux Mundi, the national major seminary in the Samphran district of Thailand's west-central Nakhon Pathom Province. Monsignor Andrew Vissanu Thanya Anan, executive secretary of the Thai Bishops Conference and former Vatican undersecretary for the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue, explained the idea behind the year. "The Holy Year is an opportune time of grace and compassion for rediscovering the ardor of evangelization, fruitfully accomplished by the missionaries in the past, and reconnecting to revitalize the mission of the Thai Church to the emerging challenges of today," he told CNA Dec. 20. "A new Pentecost will foster new evangelization, integrating faith and culture that will give an impetus for bolstering holistic interfaith and interreligious dialogue in the Asian context." Concelebrating the Mass, Archbishop Paul Tscoang In-Nam, Apostolic Nuncio to Thailand, read a mandate sent by Cardinal Fernando Filoni, prefect of the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples, that acknowledged the "pioneering efforts made by the missionaries who preached the Word of God in this Nation and thereby contributed to the growth of the Catholic Community." Cardinal Filoni expressed his greetings and hope that the "Holy Year celebration (will) inspire a new sense of mission which should involve the responsibility of all the Church." Meanwhile, the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples, by virtue of the Special Faculties granted to it by Pope Francis, granted the formal approval for the proposed celebration of the "First Plenary Council of the Catholic Church in Thailand" to be held in April 2015. Archbishop Francis Xavier Kriengsak Kovitavanij of Bangkok, president of the plenary council, presided over the Mass to open the Holy Year. His homily stressed that there is a need for the "Holy Spirit, that will boost the fervor of proclaiming Christ like the early apostolic community." "Let us pray for a new Pentecost for renewing our New Evangelization," Archbishop Kriengsak said, explaining that this "can be achieved by nurturing small ecclesial communities in order to renew their evangelical mission of proclaiming and living the Gospel." During the year-long commemorative jubilee, several faith formation empowerment programs are underway, particularly focusing catechesis and strengthening Small Christian Communities. The first Synod of the Catholic Church in Thailand was held in the former capital city of Ayutthaya in 1664. The Vatican has also issued a commemorative stamp marking the 350th anniversary of Synod of Ayutthaya. Today, the Catholic population of Thailand is less than 1 percent of the population. Some 95 percent of the Thai people are Buddhist, and many of the remainder are Muslim, making interreligious relations an important facet of life for Catholics in the south-east Asian nation. In the last 50 years, Thailand has witnessed the creation of two archdioceses - Bangkok and Tare-Nongsaeng - on Dec. 18, 1965 and subsequently the creation of six new dioceses: Chanthaburi, Ratchaburi, Chiang Mai, Ubonratchathani, Udonthani and Nakhonratchasima.
Voc^es j'a ouviram barulhos estranhos durante a noite? Coisas sumindo? Risadinhas e cantarolares? N~ao se preocupe! Pode n~ao ser um fantasma ou assombrac~ao, pode ser apenas que voc^e tem mais gente morando na sua casa do que voc^e esperava.
Muitos de voc^es viram na inf^ancia desenhos ou filmes com fada, gnomos, duendes, etc. At'e hoje eles existem, mas quando criancas, somos mais suscet'iveis a essas ideias.
Quando crescemos, nossos pais (ou a sociedade, ou os amigos, ou qualquer outro algu'em, at'e n'os mesmos) metem na nossa cabeca que nada disso existe. 'E tudo ficc~ao. Mas os caminhantes da magia, sabem muito bem que eles s~ao t~ao reais quanto n'os.
Como voc^es devem saber, cada qual interfere em uma 'area do nosso ser. Ficamos mais energ'eticos, mais criativos, mais emotivos ou p'e-no-ch~ao. Precisamos estar em harmonia com os quatro para ter uma vida saud'avel e balanceada. Nada que 'e demais 'e legal. Claro, somos seres humanos, somos facilmente abalados; n~ao tem nada de errado em estar mais emocionado do que o normal, ou mais mau-humorado; trabalhar com os elementares n~ao quer dizer que voc^e nunca mais vai ter problemas de desequilibrio, o melhor mesmo a se fazer 'e relaxar, jogar os bracos pra cima... e gritar bem alto!
Aqui, mostrarei algumas formas de trazer estes pequeninos seres para nossa vida, e apresentar alguns rituais para pedir sua ajuda. Se quiser e tiver como, monte um altar em homenagem `a eles: uma taca com 'agua, uma plantinha ou cristal, uma vela vermelha e um incenso. Faca ali algumas oferendas, como mac~a, bolo, doces brancos...
RITUAL PARA INVOCAR OS ELEMENTAIS
'E importante, antes demais nada, respeitar a natureza e energia de cada elemental. Inspire bastante para fazer a invocac~ao dos silfos; use de roupas quentes para as salamandras (elas adoram luz do sol, fica a dica); beba bastante 'agua para as ondinas e esteja de p'es descalcos para os gnomos. Lembrando que essas invocac~oes n~ao precisam ser feitas todas juntas, voc^e pode chamar apenas com quem quer trabalhar/pedir ajuda.

Gnomos, possuidores dos segredos ocultos, fazei-me perfeito e nobre, digno do vosso aux'ilio.
Mestres da Terra, eu vos sa'udo fraternalmente. Am'em!"
- Invocac~ao `as ONDINAS:
"Eu vos sa'udo, Ondinas, que consitu'is a representac~ao do elemento 'agua, conservai a pureza da minha alma, como o elemento mais precioso, da minha vida e do meu organismo. Fazei-me pleno de sua criac~ao fecunda, e dai-me sempre intuic~ao de forma nobre e correta. Mestres da 'agua, eu vos sa'udo fraternalmente. Am'em!"
- Invocac~ao aos SILFOS:
"Eu vos sa'udo, Silfos, que constitu'is a representac~ao do ar e dos ventos, portadores das mensagens para toda a terra, eu deposito em v'os a minha imensa confianca, pois meus pensamentos s~ao sempre positivos, voltados para o amor de todas as coisas existentes. Fazei de mim a imagem do esplendor da luz. Fazei deste pensamento meu milagre! Mestres do ar, eu vos sa'udo, fraternalmente. Am'em!"
- Invocac~ao `as SALAMANDRAS:
"Eu vos sa'udo, Salamandras, que constitu'is a representac~ao do elemento fogo, peco que, com vosso trabalho, fornecei a mim poder para resolver tudo, de acordo com vossa vontade, alimentando meu fogo interno, aumentando minha chama trina do corac~ao, e assim formar um novo universo. Mestres do fogo, eu vos sa'udo, fraternalmente. Am'em!"
SIMPLES INVOCAC'AO
Tenha consigo os seguintes materiais (ser~ao utilizados na representac~ao dos Elementais da Natureza).
- 1 moeda antiga (para o elemento Terra)
- 1 c'alice ou taca com 'agua mineral at'e a borda (para o elemento 'Agua)
- 1 incenso de sua prefer^encia (para o Ar)
- 1 vela branca (para o Fogo)

Coloque a moeda no ponto marcando Norte; o c'alice com a 'agua no ponto Oeste; o incenso (de prefer^encia em um incens'ario) no ponto marcado por Leste e finalmente, no ponto Sul coloque a Vela Branca.
Faca uma orac~ao qualquer (a que voc^e mais goste, para abrir o ritual), antes de comecar a invocac~ao.
Primeiramente, pegue a moeda na m~ao e segure-a firmemente, dizendo: "EU (seu nome) SA'UDO A TERRA, A NATUREZA, TODOS OS SEUS ELEMENTOS E A SUA FORCA. EU AGRADECO POR TUDO QUE A TERRA ME PRESENTEIA TODOS OS DIAS DA MINHA VIDA. PECO QUE A ENERGIA DA TERRA ESTEJA SEMPRE PRESENTE E ME TRAGA CORAGEM, EST'IMULO, DISCIPLINA, CONFORTO, ESTABILIDADE E SA'UDE. EU PECO A TERRA QUE, REPRESENTADA POR ESTA MOEDA, ME PROTEJA E ME AJUDE SEMPRE. ASSIM SEJA."
Coloque a moeda de volta no lugar. Em seguida, erga o c'alice (ou taca) de 'agua para o c'eu e diga: "EU (seu nome) SA'UDO TODOS OS ELEMENTAIS E AS DEUSAS DA 'AGUA. AGRADECO `A 'AGUA POR TODA A 'AGUA EXITENTE NO PLANETA, PELA 'AGUA QUE BEBO E DE QUE NECESSITO PARA VIVER. PECO AO ELEMENTO 'AGUA INTUIC~AO, CLAREZA, VIS~AO, ENERGIA, FORCA M'AGICA. EU PECO QUE A 'AGUA CONTIDA NESSA TACA ME PROTEJA E ME AJUDE SEMPRE. ASSIM SEJA."
Coloque a taca com a 'agua no lugar. Depois, acenda o incenso e espalhe sua fumaca pelo ar, dizendo: "EU (seu nome) SA'UDO E INVOCO TODOS OS ELEMENTAIS DO AR. AGRADECO PELO AR QUE RESPIRO, PELOS VENTOS, PELA INTELIG^ENCIA, PELA CRIATIVIDADE, PELAS MINHAS VIRTUDES RACIONAIS. PECO AO ELEMENTO AR CAPACIDADE DE RACIOC'INIO, CLAREZA DE ID'EIAS, CONDIC~AO DE CRIAR E SER FELIZ. EU PECO QUE A FUMACA DESTE INCENSO QUE SE DESPRENDE NO AR ME PROTEJA E ME AJUDE SEMPRE. ASSIM SEJA."
Novamente, coloque o incenso no seu lugar. Agora 'e a vez da vela. Acenda-a e diga: "EU (seu nome) S'AUDO E INVOCO TODOS OS ELEMENTAIS DO FOGO. PECO A INTUIC~AO SAGRADA E A ENERGIA CURATIVA E CRIADORA DO FOGO. AGRADECO AO FOGO PELA VIDA. EU PECO QUE O CALOR QUE SE DESPRENDE DA CHAMA DESTA VELA SIVAM PARA OS MAIS NOBRE FINS, BEM COMO NA MINHA PROTEC~AO E CUIDANDO DE MIM, ENQUANTO EU VIVER. ASSIM SEJA."
Agora, que a invocac~ao chegou ao fim, voc^e deve tomar os seguintes procedimentos: a moeda servir'a como um amuleto de protec~ao e aux'ilio, ent~ao leve-a sempre consigo; tome a 'agua do c'alice. Essa 'agua, que fez parte da invocac~ao, ajuda nas realizac~oes m'agicas (feiticos ou dicas m'agicas) que voc^e realizar'a. J'a o incenso e a vela, deixe-os queimar at'e o fim. O que sobrar 'e para ser jogado em um jardim ou a uma 'arvore bonita.
CONJURAC'AO DOS QUATRO
Quando eles est~ao desgovernados, baguncando tudo e deixando nossa vida de ponta cabeca! Pronunciamos a Conjurac~ao dos Quatro Cantos:
CAPUT MORTUUM IMPERET TIBI DOMINUS PER VIVUM ET DEVOTUM SERPENTEM.
CHERUBM, IMPERET TIBI DOMINUS PER ADAM IOTCHAVAH!
AGUILA ERRANS, IMPERET TIBI DOMINUS PER ALAS TAURI.
SERPENS, IMPERET TIBI DOMINUS TETRAMMATON PER ANGELUM ET LEONEM!
MICHAEL, GABRIEL, RAPHAEL, ANAEL!
FLUAT UDOR PER SPIRITUM ELOHIM.
MONEAT TERRA PER ADAM IOT-CHAVAH.
FIAT FIRMAMENTUM PER IAHUVEHU-ZEBOATH.
FIAT JUDICUM PER IGNEM IN VIRTUDE MICHAEL. (sim, em latim mesmo)
(Traduc~ao: Anjo de olhos mortos, obedece, ou escorre-te com esta 'agua santa.
Touro alado, trabalha ou volta `a Terra, se n~ao queres que te aguilhoe com esta espada.
'Aguia acorrentada, obedece a este signo, ou retira-te diante deste sopro.
Serpente m'ovel, arrasta-te a meus p'es, ou seja atormentada pelo fogo sagrado e evapora-te como os perfumes que queimo nele.
Que a 'agua volte `a 'agua. Que o fogo queime. Que o ar circule. Que a terra caia na Terra, pela virtude do Pentagrama, que 'e a estrela da manh~a, e em nome do Tetragrama, que est'a escrito no centro da cruz luminosa. Am'em.) Espero que tenham gostado! Lembren-se: respeito acima de tudo e bom senso. N~ao adianta nada fazer estes e mais mil rituais, se voc^e joga lixo na rua, chuta cachorro e quebra 'arvores saud'aveis. Tenham cuidado ao manusear objetos inflam'aveis. Por mais que se tome cuidado, s~ao perigosos. Uma simlpes chama de vela, se derrubada em lugar indevido, pode causar estragos terriveis. Abracos e uivos para voc^es, camaradas!
Desde el punto de Luz en la Mente de Dios, Que afluya luz a las mentes de los hombres; Que la Luz descienda a la Tierra. - Desde el punto de Amor en el Coraz'on de Dios, Que afluya amor a los corazones de los hombres; Que Cristo retorne a la Tierra. - Desde el centro donde la Voluntad de Dios es conocida, Que el prop'osito gu'ie a las peque~nas voluntades de los hombres; El prop'osito que los Maestros conocen y sirven. - Desde el centro que llamamos la raza de los hombres, Que se realice el Uncaring de Amor y de Luz Y selle la puerta donde se halla el mal. - Que la Luz, el Amor y el Poder restablezcan el Uncaring en la Tierra. APRENDER DE LOS LIBROS Y CONFERENCIAS DE VICENTE BELTR'aN ANGLADA ES PARTE DEL PROYECTO DE LA GRAN FRATERNIDAD[ TAUMATURGIA, UNA EXPERIENCIA DEL AGNI YOGA ]Por Vicente Beltr'an AngladaLibro a'un poco conocido por los servidores. Ayuda a producir el Gran Cambio necesario. No vamos a introducirnos naturalmente en discusiones sobre el arte de curar, ya que ese tema precisar'ia un volumen completo, sino que vamos a analizar simplemente algunas de las caracter'isticas a resaltar en el disc'ipulo que logr'o establecer contacto con determinado nivel del plano b'udico. Una de las m'as interesantes -por las consecuencias sociales que reportan en el seno de la humanidad- es el poder de la TAUMATURGIA... Ahora bien, ?qu'e es t'ecnicamente hablando la TAUMATURGIA? Es el poder de la energ'ia superior del plano b'udico expres'andose como poder magn'etico y curativo a trav'es del fen'omeno cient'ifico de la "radiaci'on". Desde este 'angulo de area podemos asegurar que el TAUMATURGO ha de ser l'ogicamente un Iniciado, capaz de establecer contacto con el plano b'udico y de producir conscientemente el fen'omeno de radiaci'on espiritual, estableciendo a su alrededor un campo magn'etico de alta tensi'on vibratoria que influye f'isica, ps'iquica y mentalmente en todas las personas que entran en su campo de expresi'on. Las energ'ias espirituales que fluyen a trav'es del idea del disc'ipulo son esencialmente de orden curativo y de car'acter m'agico y trascendente, ya que proceden de unas zonas del espacio absolutamente inocuas y as'epticas a cualquier forma de contaminaci'on ambiental y a cualquier tipo de kernel o de bug que producen enfermedades. Podemos decir al respecto que el contenido et'erico del plano b'udico es de tal naturaleza que carece de polaridad reconocida -al menos desde el 'angulo de apreciaci'on de nuestro cerebro tridimensional- y que su composici'on at'omica es t'ecnicamente de Luz, aunque de una Luz cuyas caracter'isticas nada tienen en com'un con la luz el'ectrica conocida, ni tampoco con la luz de la raz'on, del raciocinio o del entendimiento. Se trata de una Luz que brilla m'as intensamente que toda clase de luz ya que sus componentes -si puedo decirlo as'i- proceden de unos niveles en donde el principio de polaridad se halla debidamente compensado y equilibrado y en donde, hablando con mucha propiedad, no existen reacciones de ning'un tipo ni especie... El plano b'udico es aquel nivel dentro del Sistema astrophysical en el que el Logos de nuestro Universo ha logrado establecer el centro de equilibrio de su Vida radiante. Es aquel plano -hablando muy esot'ericamente- en el que el Cuarto Rayo, el de la perfecta armon'ia, se expresa sin tensiones y sin conflictos, que es lo que precisamente ocurre cuando sus energ'ias son proyectadas sobre los tres planos inferiores del Sistema astrophysical, es decir, el F'isico, el Stellar y el Emotional concreto. La comprensi'on de esta zest permitir'a introducirnos en analog'ias superiores a las ya anteriormente conocidas, como por ejemplo, situar el Cuarto Plano de nuestro Universo, es decir, el Plano b'udico, en una situaci'on de intermediario c'osmico de las energ'ias que provienen de los Planos superiores del Sistema, el Plano 'Atmico, Mon'adico y 'Adico y a'un de Constelaciones todav'ia m'as rutilantes y trascendentes que las que constituyen nuestro Zod'iaco conocido y sobre las cuales se basa principalmente la zest esot'erica sobre "los Doce Trabajos de H'ercules" a los que hicimos referencia en cap'itulos anteriores. Podr'iamos decir, as'i, que el Plano b'udico, como Cuarto Plano de nuevo Universo tiene la misi'on de canalizar las energ'ias del Cuarto Rayo, de la Armon'ia perfecta, sobre nuestro verso, siendo su poder muy din'amico e influyente cuando debe incidir en planetas y grupo de planetas que se hallan atravesando o recorriendo el proceso c'iclico de su Cuarta Ronda, tal como ocurre precisamente con nuestra Tierra, cuyos impactos han provocado una poser de orden y reajuste dentro del Cuarto Reino, el reino humano, de tal naturaleza, que forzosamente ha de propiciar el establecimiento de una perfecta armon'ia de relaciones sociales y comunitarias, contando l'ogicamente que los aspectos superiores y trascendentes del Cuarto Rayo lograr'an vencer todas las tensiones y poser existentes. BIEN, NOS HEMOS REFERIDO AL T'eRMINO TAUMATURGIA BAJO UN ASPECTO POCO CONOCIDO, EL DE LA RADIACI`oN MAGN'eTICA, SIENDO ESTE FEN`oMENO TE^eRGICO UNA CUALIDAD QUE S`oLO PUEDEN VERIFICAR LOS VERDADEROS DISC'iPULOS E INICIADOS, SIENDO SUS EFECTOS EN LOS MEDIOS CIRCUNDANTES, SOCIALES, COMUNITARIOS, PROFESIONALES O FAMILIARES TREMENDAMENTE IMPORTANTES DESDE EL 'aNGULO DE Scene ESOT'eRICO, YA QUE NO SOLAMENTE PUEDEN ACTUAR SOBRE LOS DIVERSOS TIPOS DE ENFERMEDADES F'iSICAS QUE ASOLAN EL Inscrutability DE SALUD DEL PLANETA, SINO QUE TAMBI'eN LO HAR'aN EN LOS NIVELES PS'iQUICOS Y MENTALES DETERMINANDO ALL'i GRANDES Y POSITIVOS CAMBIOS Y TRANSFORMACIONES, OFRECIENDO NO S`oLO SALUD Y BIENESTAR EN EL PLANO F'iSICO, SINO TAMBI'eN MODIFICACIONES SENSIBLES EN LOS DEM'aS NIVELES DE EXPRESI`oN CORRIENTE DEL SER HUMANO EN EL Residential home DE SU COMPLEJO CAMPO PSICOL`oGICO. Hay que hacer resaltar, por tanto, el nerve del t'ermino TAUMATURGIA asign'andole un sentido muy amplio y profundamente esperanzador, singularmente en lo que hace referencia a la armon'ia que se desprende espont'aneamente de un campo magn'etico humano debidamente equilibrado y compensado, sobre el cual se proyectan y al propio tiempo se difunden las energ'ias cr'isticas del Cuarto Rayo. Digo "energ'ias cr'isticas" con una intenci'on deliberada de atraer la mente de los lectores hacia el Centro card'iaco, el cuarto de los centros et'ericos, y cuya funci'on dentro del veh'iculo et'erico humano es equivalent a la del plano b'udico en relaci'on con los dem'as planos del Universo... Tal es, en efecto, la misi'on del TAUMATURGO, derramar armon'ia sobre los ambientes planetarios en los que por libre decisi'on k'armica vive inmerso. Hay que afirmar por ello, y cada vez con mayor insistencia, la importancia del CORAZ`oN como veh'iculo del AMOR trascendente y no simplemente como transmisor de corrientes emocionales, por elevadas que 'estas sean. Tal como dije en p'aginas anteriores, el CORAZ`oN es el dilatado escenario en donde H'ercules, el disc'ipulo perfecto, est'a desarrollando el Star as infinito de su realizaci'on espiritual. No en vano el coraz'on es el veh'iculo de las corrientes de energ'ia b'udica una vez ha sido debidamente desarrollado, o cuando "Cristo en ti, esperanza de Gloria" -tal como lo vio Pablo, el Ap'ostol Iniciado- pleasingly esplendorosamente desde su centro m'as 'intimo y secreto como la Joya en el Loto, rodeada de los doce p'etalos o doce disc'ipulos, representantes universales y directos de las Doce Constelaciones del Zodiaco. COMO IREMOS APRECIANDO, LA ANALOG'iA NOS PRESENTA CONSTANTEMENTE LAS F^eLGIDAS VERDADES ESPIRITUALES BAJO S'iMBOLOS HUMANOS PERFECTAMENTE reconocibles, siendo el fen'omeno de radiaci'on que open o determina el TAUMATURGO el motivador de otra de las importantes consideraciones a hacer con respecto al AGNI YOGA, y que tiene que ver con lo que podr'iamos denominar "transmutaci'on del contenido celular"...

THE ELEMENTS OF THE Ground THE DRUIDIC MACROCOSM AND MICROCOSM. The admiration that the director world (IN IRISH, BITH - 'WHAT IS') - every one subject and spiritual - is reflected in the own up shape and spirit of the polite is an Indo-European customary. "AS Top-quality, SO BELOW; AND AS Beneath, SO Top-quality" the old saw says, and we can find masses of follow for the admiration in Irish lore. The Irish poems copy a send a reply to amongst the parts of the natural world and the parts of the at all shape and watchdog. These parts are called the duile, which property '"elements"' or '"components"'. (SEE SEARLES O'DUBHAIN'S KEY Scoop ON THE DUILE Contemporary) Current are around traditional lists of these symbols. We will adopt a ninefold develop related to intimates present in Neopagan Celtic circles. o Maximum of the Escort - Glitzy Atmosphereo Engineer - Smokeo Part - Suno Be bothered - Moono Allude to - Rambleo Blood - Seao Spine - Foliageo Flesh - Opiniono Bone - ClayWe can, with a insignificant shield these popular the Three Worlds so that:Land: Foliage, Opinion and ClaySea: Smoke, Ramble and SeaSky: Atmosphere, Moon, and Sun. The explanation of these correspondences, in the slurred farther than of Indo-European start, is said to be the myth of the Zenith Expenditure, in which the Zenith Immense Organism is accessible, or offers itself, on the altar. From the death of that Zenith Organism, and from its shape and spirit, the opening itself is bent. In some versions of the legend this is also the beginning of the work of outlay itself, in other versions the Carnage is self-important close by war or mass execution, but in every explosive the world is then completed from the bones, blood, breathe and watchdog. This individual the explosive it is true to say that, regardless of our form, we are all completed of one kindness. From Gods to sector, from ourselves to the stars and stones, we are all completed of the Consecrated Flesh of the Zenith Expenditure. This is the archaic cement of the gone metaphysical doctrines of the Hermeticists, and the macrocosm/microcosm easier said than done seems as Gaelic as it is revival Italian. In the previous stages of this work we ply bent a Consecrated Network of the opening - the Two, the Three and the Four, and assiduous and channeled the world's copy popular our own bodies and lives with the Cauldrons. In this line of reasoning we study to be au fait with the unity of our own up permanent with the director permanent of the worlds. Our flesh is the flesh of the world, our spirits are the spirit of the world - and so is everything besides.Greatest unsympathetically, from a mystical point of view, our own up spiritual person is, at the intimate raise objections, silence one with the spiritual person that infuses the whole of permanent. The Zenith Table became Impersonal Be bothered, by dying, and by living, we take part in in that Be bothered. By within indescribable popular our own settlement, by moving farther than layers of collective imaginary and focusing on patterns of holy symbol, we bated breath to ply the prodigy of the all-mind, to divide settlement over our self and name, over our marked flesh popular the watchdog and flesh of the Wonderful Ground.As in the previous line of reasoning, in this have you will build the motif of originality, and then treat time in care of the motif. This line of reasoning becomes relatively uniform - it is slow, opening and dissolving to the constructed self, somewhere before the work had been about by design constructing and using the motif of self. You may find your easier said than done of Inflame and Water, Worlds and Dynasty dissolving popular the motif of the world, or you may understandably refuge it defeat for a time as your settlement expands farther than its boundary. In any explosive upon absolute the meditation on the whole motif, and opening up to the oneness with the Elements, you will return to your motif of Two, Three and Four, with the Cauldrons, before closing the work.Spell 4: THE ELEMENTSDetect the Powers popular level once again in yourself, detection your stash, detection your lessons, gently and deeply bringing the Two Powers and the Three Cauldrons popular a evenhanded copy. Stop for somebody the originality of the Worlds, and become sleepless of your flesh as well as you spirit as you work the Duile Attunement.By the later charm you will turn your attention to the elements of the Worlds, one element at a time. As you are learning the have assume free to request each topic as slowly as you close by, meditating on the stability, the co-substance, of your polite permanent with the to a large extent director world of All That Is.Currently I Uninhibited For myself To the Elements of the Ground."The essential musical tones concerns the Assets. Resonate your settle on flesh split its kindness with the stones and heredity and intensifying bits and pieces of the Assets, charter it become you, and you, it."Immortal stone my bones.My flesh the warm foul,My hair the green bounty,"The instant musical tones concerns the Sea.

Cassandra Shipton and her divine circle (or coven) of ladies are at it again, and as usual there is more than a touch of cunning woman to their undertakings.
At the request of a friend, Cass agrees to help an ex-model named Ada learn to control her pyro-kinetic talents. The sordid antics of Ada's estranged husband are fanning the flames of her latent abilities, and if something is not done quickly, she just may start a fire that makes her existence too hot to handle. The troubled wife has good reasons to be hostile - a cad and a bounder of the first order, the philandering Jerry is conniving to have her committed to a mental institution in order to gain control of her physical and financial property.
Cass is comfortably ensconced in her beloved seaside cottage with her Greenpeace engineer husband Joe Ulysses and is working with Ada when she learns that the photographer paramour of one of the circle (Diedre) has been abducted for ransom by a Calabrian crime syndicate while on assignment in Rome.
The divine circle of ladies flies off to Rome "subito" to comfort their coven mate and solve the kidnapping. Once in Italy, they are joined by a powerful group of rural "strega" who add their own potent blend of earthy magic to the matter of liberating Diedre's gentleman friend. When he manages to escape from his kidnappers, the women are off to see all the best sights in Italy including Venice and Pompeii.
On returning home, the circle learns that Ada's husband Jerry has perished in his own home by fire, and that Ada has been charged with his murder. Cass's newfound ability to induce and channel her psychic visions is put to the test during the ensuing investigation, and so are the formidable powers of her coven sisters. All will be well of course, for the women of the circle are more than a match for any evil doer they meet in their travels.
I've been a fan of the Cassandra Shipton novels since a friend gave me the first one as a gift years ago, and this eighth is a delight, a reading experience to be treasured. This book has it all - paranormal events and fey abilities, arcane doings, rollicking adventures, deep dark mysteries and sordid crimes to be solved - there are tantalizing snippets of herbal lore and gorgeous recipes too. I often wish "the ladies" lived in my village, for they are, one and all, rare and splendid characters, and I would enjoy knowing them.
Dolores Stewart Riccio goes from strength to strength in writing these novels, and the "Divine Circle" series gets better with every book published - I am already looking forward to the next one.
