More about me: I am not into "religion" per se - though I have been deeply exploring Quendi, or Elven Spirituality via Professor Tolkien's works (mostly the Silmarillion) as of late and the path is developing beautifully! It is called Tië eldaliéva, meaning the Elven Path (as in spiritual path) and we hope to have a manuscript published soon (and though not confirmed, we are excited about the publisher, so stay tuned). Because of this new stand-alone path forming, I became a legally ordained Minister through the OFFICIAL Universal Life Church on Yule/Turuhalme, 2008.

I am also a professional Astrologer (leaning toward Western Classical but also enjoy Vedic) and just so happen to be the founding and current President of the Big Sky Astrologers (myspace won't link it) http://astrologymontana.webs.com. I am also an Author, Tarot Card Reader, Pendulum Dowser, Flower Essence Creator/Practitioner, and Intuitive Consultant. I have recently achieved Master Herbalist certification, having completed the School of Natural Healing program, thanks to scholarships from the school, as well as the Soroptimists. I am a Traditional Usui Reiki Master and hope to help implement the Elven "healing" system that is surfacing.

OCTOBER 6, 2006: My crochet website is receiving attention from of all places People Magazine! Apparently, Mary-Kate Olsen has been photographed wearing a red knitted/crocheted tam and when their readers inquired as to where they could purchase one, they responded by adding my link to their page! Here is the link! So I will likely have a heavy crochet season and need to stock up on red yarn! :-) In the meantime, I have a quick example for those who wish to see MY version hehehe!

One of my best friends in the whole wide world just so happens to be one of the most gifted healers I have ever encountered - if you are in North Carolina or beyond, take a look at Karen Corey's page at www.coreyhealth.com! Karen is an aromatherapist, reflexologist, nutritional, homeopathic and flower essence practitioner, not to mention all of her other amazing gifts (and there are lots)! She is also starting a wonderful project, www.coreygardens.com and I can't wait to see what develops with that!

Interests

  • General

    Classical Western and Vedic Astrology, Tarot, Dowsing (especially with a Pendulum and I like DNA Dowsing), Crocheting with Hemp, Herbalism (mostly Western Medicinal and Magickal, but like Chinese as well as Ayurvedic), Flower Essences (making and using), Reiki and other vibrational work, Crystals and Gems, Paganism, Heathenism, Asatru and other Teutonic, Norse and Germanic spiritual practices, Druidism, Celtic Shamanism as well as other forms, Wicca and Witchcraft and magick in general (and working with Faerie and nature spirits), and as of late, Elven Spirituality, particularly through Tolkien's Arda, or Middle-Earth works (collectively the Legendarium and includes the Silmarillion and Morgoth's Ring).
  • Music

    Dead Can Dance (all of them), Lisa Gerrard, Collide, Anois (Elvenhymn is very nice!), Helen Trevillion, Enya, Loreena McKennitt, Delerium (especially Karma, and love Nuages du Monde), Blackmore's Night, Rhea's Obsession, Zingaia, Cybertribe, Lumin "Hadra" and their new one, Irina Mikhailova, Amethystium, Aurah, Aera Cura, Ether Aura, Angels of Venice, Enigma, Faun, Qntal, Castus Rabensang, Sharon Knight, Pandemonaeon, Narsilion, Faerience, Omnia, Irfan, Vladislava, Myth, Azam Ali and Vas, Niyaz, Afro-Celt Sound System, The Moors, Mediaeval Baebes, Nest and other projects involving Laurie Ann Haus, the "Steam" soundtrack and weirdly, much middle-eastern belly-dance music and even much world music as well (check out Carvin Knowles, as well as The Fellowship - In Elven Lands). Check out Radio Rivendell as well! I also like rock, although it was more my past than present, still love Black Sabbath, Alice in Chains, Nirvana, Jane's Addiction (and LOVE Deconstruction), Tori Amos, and the first two CD's from Garbage too. And I even like some electronic music (like older DJ Shadow, Massive Attack and Thievery Corporation) and goth music too (I particularly like Dargaard, Regan, Switchblade Symphony, The Birthday Massacre, Faith and the Muse, as well as Bauhaus and Skinny Puppy - and Gary Numan's newer work like "Jagged" is GREAT!), so I guess I am all over the map! ;-)

    I also have some friends who are in bands, anything from 70's style soul (Hobex) to total death metal (Sator Square) so check it out! Also, my awesome husband Ray was in San Diego-based Den of Thieves (1988-1997), a GREAT hard rock/metal band - please send either of us a message and we will arrange to get you some Den of Thieves music! :-)
  • Movies

    All 3 LOTR extended movies (especially the 1st)! Also, MirrorMask, Chronicles of Narnia, Mists of Avalon, Merlin, Willow, Dark Crystal (and cannot wait for Dark Crystal II), Labyrinth, Legend, Conan, Underworld (both), Matrix, and almost anything by Tim Burton, especially with Danny Elfman and Johnny Depp! Nightmare Before Christmas, Corpse Bride, Charley and the Chocolate Factory, Sleepy Hollow, the list goes on (and of course I love Johnnie Depp as an actor regardless, from Secret Window to Pirates of the Caribbean and nearly everything in between). I also LOVE the X-men series - I knew there was a reason I really like Famke Janssen's energy - we virtually share the same birthday! WOW! I also really enjoy What the Bleep and The Secret! I like many movies but these I can watch again and again!
  • Television

    When I did watch TV (we got rid of it, and haven't even had time to try Hulu.com, I watched pretty much only the History Channel, especially if it is ancient studies. My news? Well, I get that from the internet too!
  • Books

    I achieved "Master Herbalist" through my herbal school in June 2007. One of the books during my Herbalist studies I particularly liked is "Green Pharmacy" by Barbara Griggs. It discussed the history (and somewhat the pre-history) of Western Herbalism and really Western Medicine as we know it. Many believe that the age of so-called "chemical" medicine happened during the Industrial Revolution and/or at the turn of the 20th Century, but it appears that, besides heavy bloodletting, widespread and heavy use of mercury, a very poisonous metal, was in vigorous regular practice from the 1300's and escalated in popularity despite its disgusting setbacks (how about death?) for some 500 years! I am glad I live now! Since I have actively been making flower essences, I am using many books for cross-referencing and I think there needs to be a book with all the information in one place (hmmm, another book idea hehehe)!

    The Lord of the Rings (LOTR) Trilogy
    (In particular, the Appendices in Return of the King that relate to the Elven Symbols, Languages and Calendars).

    The Silmarillion by JRR Tolkien (edited by Christopher Tolkien) 1977

    The History of Middle-Earth (HoME) Series (12 volumes, includes Lost Tales I and II, and Vol. 10, "Morgoth's Ring")

    Unfinished Tales and also the Letters of JRR Tolkien

    For non-Tolkien related:

    I have been doing much Celtic Ogham and Tree Alphabet study and seeing relationships with the elven material. "Whispers from the Woods" by Sandra Kynes, as well as the classic Steve Blamires' work "Celtic Tree Mysteries" are part of this, as well as learning about the trees here in Montana on a more mundane level. I had no idea how many trees help one connect with the elves/fae or their respective realms (and Rowan, or Mountain Ash, particularly interests me since it relates to dragon as well as elven energy - and there is LOTS here in MT! I STILL also want a Willow staff - it will happen!)

    I have read Orion Foxwood's "The Faery Teachings" and enjoyed it VERY much! (I also met him at PantheaCon and he is super hilarious!!)

    Whoa, a heavy question! Let me say that I have respect for anyone who acts with valor, honor and balance! :-)

    Sacred Salutations of Peace

    Sweet Sister

    Stay Close *hugs*jeff*


    Photobucket

    = GROWING WINGS AND EATING ROCKS =

    A star takes you so far. far beyond the distant home.

    The home every heart holds dear.

    Some aren't sleeping when they go there.

    Walking.living.breathing.awake.

    They are the distant home.

    Architects of the seen and unseen.

    Visualized in service. .carrying invisible chains.

    Labors of love so glorious. Tears of joy and gratitude.

    Join the raging rivers of compassion.

    To wash and rinse inside the house.

    Conducting the change.

    Growing wings.

    .and eating rocks.

    Hey Calantirniel,
    It's that time of year again, and as an independent artist trying to get their music heard, we'd really appreciate if you'd buy our debut album, "HOBS END", not only for yourself (if you haven't already), but also for your friends and family this holiday season.
    We had the guys from Bose-Collins of London do our album artwork, it includes a 12 page booklet of incredible imagery with collector's jewel case. Definitely makes a nice gift.
    We Thank You for helping us get our music out and heard.
    Peace & Love,
    Chance

    In the midnight darkness

    of my garden I silently sit.

    All is dark, save for the wan light

    from a yellow gibbous moon.

    The air is still, there is no breeze

    to move the vegetation.

    Silence surrounds me broken

    only by a Church clock,

    chiming the witching hour.

    As I sit my body slows to the

    rhythm of all that surrounds me

    Suddenly my spirit takes flight

    and travel where it wills.

    Will it take flight with brother Owl

    who sits above me hooting

    in the tree.

    Or join with sister cat who hunts

    her prey on silent paws.

    But then I feel a different call

    That of my mother Gaia

    beseeching me to let my spirit rest

    held fast in Her comforting arms.

    There are places that I go to in each and every state that I'm in that I visit, for holistic health, but thank you....the study of the houses & astrology in general is much more of my teenage yrs. Turning a little open minded in my 31st yr. is only paying homage to Jupiter. Love, Love, Love
