Are you cyclically confused? In a ceremonial quandary? Completely clueless? Wonder no more.   *Ask Your Mama™ Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Spirituality and Didn’t Know Who to Ask™   by ©Mama Donna Henes, Urban Shaman     A Question of Mothering   Dear Mama Donna,   I’m enjoying reading your book, The Queen of My Self. I have a question, though. My own mother and both of my grandmothers were never the nurturing type of women. In truth, they weren’t the kind of people I’d care to be around if I wasn’t related to them. Both grandmothers have passed, and I try to have very little contact…

Necromancy and The Talking Board   Talking Boards, like the Ouija, are tools used for contacting the dead, which is also known as necromancy, and as a tool it is not in and of itself ‘good’ nor ‘evil’. It is a tool just like any other tool. Like a cell phone, for example, it can be used to make calls to those you love and care for or used to make prank calls to strangers. The Ouija Board acts as a portal to other dimensions allowing non-physical entities to enter this physical dimension. Many casual users do not understand who or what they are communicating with and would not be…

  The Astrology of Great Sex by Myrna Lamb © 2010 Hampton Roads Publishing (An Imprint of Red Wheel Weiser) ISBN: 978-1-57174-509-5 290 pages Paperback $17.95 (U.S.)   This is one of those books which is difficult to review, since it is intended to be basically a reference book, and therefore has no rhythm to get into. The only way to approach it to read the sections you are basically familiar with and see if that information appears accurate.   That presented a minor problem for me, simply because I have been happily married to the same woman for about 35 years. My memories of previous relationships is hazy at…

Samhain Peace   Our Celtic wheel has turned to Samhain.  This time of year seems like such frenzy and activity.  Time to finish up all outdoor work before the coming winter darkness. Time to plan for the upcoming holidays.  And yet it is a time to gather in our energies in preparation for rest.  Mother Nature shows us her example in hopes we will follow suit.  How many of us do follow what the season is teaching?   As each day gets shorter and the night hours longer we can move into a state of peace.  How, you might ask?  Life is going at breakneck speed and while our sacred…

Fortuna                 Fortuna is a Roman goddess of luck, fortune, prosperity and fate who was at one time very popular.  With Greek influence, Fortuna became Tykhe and was also a very popular deity there.  She was even popular in Italy and she had more temples than any other God in that time.  She was always afforded the most luxurious kinds of worship since people hoped it would bring them good fortune. She is usually depicted holding a cornucopia in one hand, and a ship’s rudder in the other.  Sometimes she is blindfolded or veiled and most of the time she is standing on or near a globe or wheel.  The…

September and Squirrel Nutkin   At long last Mother Earth is balancing and the slow move toward the winter months begin.  I watch as the squirrels and chipmunks in my yard are gathering acorns and other nuts and hurrying away. The last of the hummingbirds are visiting the bird feeders getting fatter and fatter in anticipation of the long flight further south.   Self Discipline and Self Reliance are the virtues for this month and little Squirrel Nutkin is the perfect example of both of those ideas.   Having the discipline to prepare for our own needs in order to be self-reliant is something sorely lacking in our society these…

The Jealous Girlfriend   “A jealous girlfriend is a faithful girlfriend. If she doesn’t get jealous when someone has your attention it’s because someone has hers. “     This was a status message that I read a few weeks ago on facebook. Surprised? Facebook seems to have a lot of these random pieces of ‘wisdom’. I use the word wisdom in quotations because while others may view this message as such, I do not.  Wonder why? Well, let me explain why I do NOT in any way view these words as wisdom.   First, I want to explore the definition of the word jealous. Jealous means an intolerance or…
