The numbers nine and three, significant in Germanic paganism and later Germanic folklore, are mentioned frequently within the charm.[2] The poem contains references to Christian and English Pagan elements, including a mention of the major Germanic god Woden. According to R. K. Gordon, the poem is "clearly an old heathen thing which has been subjected to Christian censorship.

To the Readers of IntegralWorld.net: I have enjoyed this website for many years, and it has been most interesting to follow its evolution. Frank Visser was kind enough to invite me to contribute something from my book.

The Brow Chakra | Bliss Returned The Brow Chakra, the center of our “Third Eye”, is our connection to the wisdom the universe has to offer. Through the experiences we have, we gain knowledge, and through that knowledge we gain perspective. It enables us to separate the real from the imagined, the vital from the unimportant. On the flip side, someone with a closed brow chakra may have problems with visualization or any type of imagination. When out of balance with Ajna, a person may be more forgetful, doubtful, or be an obsessive worrier and afraid of success. Opening your Brow Chakra allows you to enlighten every aspect of your life by understanding the relationship between the physical, emotional, and intellectual. Feeding Your Brow Chakra Awakening Third Eye Senses Dark bluish colored fruits: blueberries, red grapes, black berries, raspberries, etc.Liquids: red wines and grape juiceSpices: lavender, poppy seed, mugwort Finally Affirmations for the Brow Chakra: I am open to my deepest intuition and knowing.
The Hedge Wife: Magical Herbalism Part 1 Witchcraft and herbalism go hand in hand and have done so for centuries. In the past, witches were called wise women or wise men and were often the only people their neighbors could go to for healing. Doctors were sparse and so expensive only gentry could afford them or...there were none to be found in general. Today, many witches are returning to their roots so to speak and looking to find a connection to the earth by healing themselves and those around them with herbs and plants. I wanted to do a series of posts to collect data online into one place for easier research not only for myself but for others looking. The following are site and blogs that provide magical herbal information. Wicca.com has a great reference list form A-Z of herbs and their magical properties. Witch of Forest Grove has a great series of posts called Weeds for Witches that include Dandelion and Clover, two of my favorite weeds. I hope you find many blessings in the links given.
