Newsletter: February 2013


The Wicca Series
Newsletter
February 2013

I hear and recognise the well known call as they come around every year, the men on their bicycles, with giant sacks of corn strapped to the front handlebars. They ride up and down the streets, calling out to the homes they pass by “MIELIES!”, and I know the harvest season is beginning.

We will be celebrating the first of the harvest seasons, Lughnasadh here in the Southern Hemisphere this week, 31st January to 2nd February (I personally celebrate on the 2nd February every year). The Sun God is fading, and the Mother Goddess is growing in strength as we begin to harvest the bounty that has grown over the summer months. Celebrating, sharing and showing gratitude for the gifts we receive from the earth.

I would like to wish a blessed Lughnasadh to all those who celebrate in the Southern Hemisphere, and a blessed Imbolc to all who celebrate in the Northern Hemisphere.

January 2013 has come and gone, and after a particularly difficult December and January, I found myself focusing a lot on healing, and really working on launching my Reiki practice.

As I began to focus on healing and moving forward, I began to notice that around me, a lot of people seemed to focusing in the same direction. Whether or not people had experienced a tragic or difficult time, there seems to be a general focus on healing and growth of body, mind, emotion and spirit.

In order to help those who are interested in healing and growing, I have decided to focus my specials for February 2013 on products and specials to assist in the process. I have also been posting regular pieces on my blog with regards to Reiki and healing, please feel free to read them at http://thewiccaseries.blogspot.com

'THE ADVOCACY'

ART FOR HUMAN RIGHTS


“Against Prejudice and Violence”

The Witch-hunt is a centuries old tool of prejudice against society, in particular women. It is a form of genocide that is bound neither by ethnicity nor time and which continues to demand its victims across the world.

Witchcraft accusations, hangings, stoning episodes, burnings, beatings, hackings, banishing and forced relocations are common types of brutality and violence women in particular, are still subjected to in rural communities of South Africa. All too often, with epidemic frequency as a matter of fact, the disempowered (old women, children and men) are subjected to false accusations, brutal and abusive treatment at the hands of rural courts, superstitious and angry mobs who wish to purge their community of the “evil” amongst them.

Violence against women is at “crisis levels” throughout the various regions of South Africa. SAPRA has run a yearly 30 days Advocacy Campaign against Witch Hunts since 2008 and this year have undertaken to coordinate an exhibition to highlight the problem and thereby make people from all backgrounds and walks of life aware of the negative impact of violence on elderly, often sickly women and children in particular.

“The Advocacy” is a collaboration of several South African Artists, united against the brutality of witch-hunts, a visual bid and appeal to the public, as well as Government, to engage in a drive for education, programmes geared towards addressing the culture of “scapegoating”, halting the abuse and persecutions, as well as working towards the upholding and strengthening of a culture nurture in the lap of Human Rights and Gender Equality as well as creating and building the support for victims and survivors of this form of social abuse.

Artists so far committed to exhibit:

Majak Bredell
Judith Mason
Tamar Mason
The Artists Press : presenting works by Colbert Mashile and Mmakgabo Sebidi
Damon Leff
Anthony Stakes
Luke Martin
Daniela Leigh
Mize Principe

VENUE : White River Art Gallery
DATE: 16 March to 16 April
OPENING SPEECH: 16 March 13h00

SUBMISSIONS & DEADLINES


Deadline for submission of Artworks: 20 February (inbox me or email me at info@pagancouncil.co.za for delivery details)

Every artwork must be accompanied with a title and a brief explanation of the piece and how it relates to the Advocacy Against Witch Hunts.

Artworks will be on sale during the exhibition, so they need to be priced reasonably. 20% of moneys will go towards the Gallery and 30% towards SAPRA’s Advocacy Campaign. If I sell any of my works, I will donate the money made towards next Year’s Advocacy.

The Gallery is still looking for other local artists, so the list of artists on show is bound to grow.

Damon Leff will contact the SAHRC, the Department of Justice, to invite some dignitaries to the exhibition. I will invite those involved in the Interfaith Debates.

A piece on the exhibition will appear in the Get It Magazine, during the month of February and we have plans of advertising the event on the local radio stations, hopefully Radio 702 as well and running an article in papers which have in the past shown support for the Advocacy Campaign.

Kindly send me a photograph of your work as art will be exhibited on the Gallery’s webpage as well as their FB page.

Purple Lizard:


Dream, Work & Meditate with Angels – Charmaine Morris.

The book description: This book was written to teach individuals to interact and work with Angels on a daily basis. It contains channeled information on ten different Angels: Archangels Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, Anael, Haniel, Uriel, Zadkiel, Samael, Sachiel and Metatron. It includes some notes on other Angels, Angelic Rituals, Product Recipes & Meditations.

The book will bring you new and easy ways to connect with the Angelic energies on Earth. It is written for the individuals who wish to improve their own lives and heighten their spiritual vibration through working with Angels.

All the meditations, rituals and recipes are easy to understand and follow. I included a chapter on new Angels that came in to work on Earth during the 2012 energy shift. There is also a short chapter on Angelic Novenas and Angelic Rites.

I have many years of experience in working with the Angelic energies and wrote this book to help people gain the same benefits without having to go through trial and error like I had to do.

In the words of one of my proofreaders: “I love your book. This comes from a place of Divine Truth. I am in awe. It is a book for any person learned or new to the Divinity of the Angelic Realm.” I am happy to say that I achieved my aim: It is a book for both the gurus and the fledglings. Enjoy it.

There is a FREE Archangel Michael Meditation on YouTube! It’s a full meditation for anyone to follow!!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_v_b35I6OPA

  7. I was wondering if you ever considered changing
    the structure of your blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
    But maybe you could a little more in the way of
    content so people could connect with it better. Youve got
    an awful lot of text for only having 1 or two images.
    Maybe you could space it out better?
