“Why do you chase the darkness when the light is available to you? … Wisdom calls you and yet you wish for foolishness … A foolish man … goes on the path of the desire of every passion … it is like a ship that the wind blows from one side to the other, and like a horse that has no rider … before anything else … know yourself.”

Dittany of Crete is a Mediterranean herb closely related to Marjoram and Oregano. But Dittany is not the kind of green stuff you put on roast chicken. Oh no. Its reputation as a magickal ingredient has far outgrown the stature of this unassuming little pot herb. Dittany (the name probably comes from Dicte, the mountain …

Are you keeping a journal? Here are some ideas you will appreciate if you enjoy both writing and the Tarot … or even if you are completely new to the Tarot but open to using a new tool for triggering new thoughts and ideas.
Tarot and journaling are the two tools that can help you achieve self-awareness better than any other. Using the Major Arcana Tarot cards (or archetypal keys) as journaling prompts, combines these two tools in a powerful way and helps you access the realm of the subconscious.
TAROT TIP 1: These prompts can also be used together with your daily draw and will inspire a deeper connection with your card of the day, drawing on your own life experience.
TAROT TIP 2: After you have completed the entry, come up with a new prompt/WORD based on the same card … simply by looking at the image. Write it down for next time you pull this card.
TAROT TIP 3: Place your deck inside your pillow case and sleep with it for a minimum of one week to connect and bind your energies to it.
HOW-TO PERFORM TAROT CONTEMPLATION EXERCISE AND CIRCLE SPREAD DIVINATION
1 – Perform your LBRP and Relaxation Ritual. If you’ve already performed your daily banishings ritual, there is no need to repeat your LBRP; just perform the Relaxation Ritual.
2 – Recite the Prayer to HRU. (You should be memorizing it for testing purposes anyway.)
3 – Shuffle only the 22 Major Arcana cards only. If you are 1=10 and higher, go ahead and add-in the Minor Arcana.
4 – Divide the cards into four piles, right to left, while intoning YOD-HEH-VAV-HEH (one syllable, one pile each syllable). Recombine the piles, picking up each pile, again, right to left.
5 – You are now ready to use your cards.
6 – If practicing a Circle Spread divination, pull out a blank worksheet and write down your IF-THEN Karmic query. To wit, WHAT ARE THE KARMIC CONSEQUENCES IF I (perform an action or think specific thoughts), OR NOT? (You need to produce 3 dated, completed worksheets to qualify for advancement into 1=10.)
7 – If performing a tarot contemplation exercise, then randomly pick a card you haven’t drawn before, or work through the Major Arcana in order, i.e., Fool, Magician, High Priestess, Emperor, Hierophant, etc.
8 – Journal your results either in your magical journal, or in a separate tarot journal. You can use poetry or prose as your journal entry … Your journal won’t even object to the occasional haiku, hiccup or squiggle… Be free with yourself (like The Fool!) and enjoy! 🙂
9 – Be sure to keep your tarot deck wrapped in a WHITE CLOTH.
Here are some ideas for prompts to contemplate:
The Fool – Describe the last something you did something so spontaneous or ‘off the cuff’ that someone might label it erratic
The Magician – Which skill have you always been good at? Describe how you discovered your talent.
The High Priestess – Write about a vivid and meaningful dream you have had or would like to have.
The Empress – Write about the most positive traits you have after your mother.
The Emperor – Write about the most positive traits you have after your father.
The Hierophant – Write about the teacher you remember most vividly… what made him/her stand out?
The Lovers – Write about how you imagined married life to be when you were 16.
The Chariot – Write about your definition of success.
Strength – When was the last time you had your mettle tested. What did you learn about your strengths?
The Hermit – Contemplate what lessons the past 12 months have brought you. Try writing about the lessons in detail without judging your performance.
The Wheel of Fortune – Write about a time when you took a really big risk. What happened?
Justice – Have you ever had a run-in with the law? Talk about it (even if it was just a parking ticket).
The Hanged Man – Have you ever had an experience that radically changed how you perceived a person or situation? Write it down.
Death – How do you feel about death? Is there an afterlife? What will it be like?
Temperance – Talk about the portion of your healing journey that made the biggest difference to how you view your own health and wellbeing.
The Devil – Write about the last time you gave into temptation.
The Tower – Write about the most traumatic experience you had in the past five years.
The Star – What is your best, brightest vision of where you will be and what your life will be like five years from now.
The Moon – Write about what being anxious feels like in as much detail as possible.
The Sun – Write about your perfect day, when everything you do is done with the utmost ease, confidence and clarity of mind.
Judgment – What is your calling? Where are you on the path of your life’s purpose?
The World – Write about the last time you had a sense of achievement thanks to completing a complex and time-demanding task.

Just as from Kether to Malkuth there is a successive movement from the abstract to the manifest, so there is in the Kabbalistic worlds from Atziluth to Assiah:
| Atziluth | Archetypal World (World of Emanations) or Divine World |
| Briah | Creative World or World of Thrones |
| Yetzirah | Formative world |
| Assiah | Manifest or Material World |
These four worlds can be considered as a linear hierarchy, with each world containing its own full Tree, in which Malkuth in one world becomes Kether of the world below, and Kether of one world becomes Malkuth of the world above (as shown to the left). Malkuth is seen as the complementary fulfillment of Kether: the first is Divine Immanence, the latter Divine Transcendence. (1)
To the upper right is the traditional view of the Four Worlds mapped onto the sefirot. Following the Kabbalistic holographic principle, each world maps onto the Tree, but each…

With a number of us gearing up to serve as ritualists in an upcoming Pacific Northwest Fall Equinox Festival, I’m re-running an older post on what it means to serve Isis as Her priest/ess. (Also, I’m scrambling to get the ritual written before our next Festival Crewe gathering, so bear with me.)
Of course, not all of our Festival ritualists will desire a relationship with Isis beyond the festival. Probably most won’t; they may already have important Divine connections in their lives. But for those who may, I offer these next few posts as starting thoughts for discovering a specific type of relationship with Her.
Oh, and another thing. As these are older posts, they used the gendered terms “priestess” and “priest.” As a community, we haven’t yet settled on a gender non-specific title for the intensely connected relationship with the…

Yes!
The Pacific Northwest is ON for an Isis-themed Fall Equinox Festival (Sept. 24-26, 2021). This is not the same festival we were planning for 2020. That one was much more…involved…shall we say. This one is a gentle way of coming together once again as a community. So I’d like to share with you the write up for the festival, then I’ll repost something on Making Offering in the Egyptian way that will be related…
Offering to Isis: A Fall Equinox Celebration of the Goddess and of Community
If you asked the ancient Egyptians, the act of Making Offering was one of the things that maintained Ma’et, that which is Right and True. Offering helped keep the world in balance. Making Offering is part of the great reciprocal flow between the Divine and the human…

A little while ago, I had the opportunity to be in the same room with several other priestesses of Isis and we were talking about Her (as priestesses of Isis are wont to do).
All of us agreed with this statement: “Isis will kick your ass.” And each of us knew exactly what the others meant by that.
We had all experienced it, you see.
But just in case you haven’t yet had the opportunity to have your own sweet butt kicked by the Goddess, I’ll explain.
When you undertake a relationship with Isis, whether that be as a priestess, priest, or devotee, it is more than likely that She will ask something of you. For instance, She might want you to get your physical surroundings in order so that you can create a temple space…
