The Celtic Year: Spam and word verification
http://thecelticyear.blogspot.com/2012/03/spam-and-word-verification.html
Wednesday, 28 March 2012. Spam and word verification. Well we've just tried a little experiment over the last few weeks. We removed the need for word verification when posting a comment on the blog to help some readers who have great difficulty in reading the words they need to copy to post comments. Sadly the blog has been inundated by ridiculous Spam comments advertising medication and, believe it or not, porn. Spammers are the lowest form of life! 30 March 2012 at 08:52. 1 April 2012 at 10:00.

The Celtic Year: May 2012

Monday, 7 May 2012. Beltain/ May Day 2012. A late post again, like our Spring, I feel too busy living to post sometimes! So was there much dancing round Maypoles, jumping through fires and unbridled merrymaking for Beltain where you are on our wonderful planet? I'd love to see your celebrations. Here, for many reasons, it was a quiet celebration with fire, food, music, meditation and gratitude. The gorse lined path from Bedburn. The music of this waterfall. Fresh red growth among the glaucous greens.

Monday, 2 January 2012. Yule 2011: Goddess of Air by Chrissy Heaven. A beautiful poem from Chrissy, this gave me such peace. In frosty blasts of cold Yule air. Winter Lady breathes the stillness. To shimmer our landscape white with ice. And snow as silent rain. When Danu comes again. Whispering wisdom in the winds. She blows a breeze that frosts her web. Sheer and glinting in winter sun. Inviting herself into our waiting hopes. Our steamy breath carrying silver strands. To weave us into her spidery domain.

The Celtic Year: Winter Solstice Yule 2011
http://thecelticyear.blogspot.com/2011/12/winter-solstice-yule-2011.html
Friday, 23 December 2011. Winter Solstice Yule 2011. The Solstice sunrise heralds the lengthening days. And the longest night's clouds scatter. Offering, in their passing, a transient window blessing. Many original Yuletide decorations grace our home. Foggy, Jamie and I made this revolving and annually evolving mobile. And my sister, Sheila made the beaded snowflake. Victor consents to join us for the party! The holly and the ivy. And Foggy's Christmas candle lights. Ficus has a festive dressing. Wishing...

The Celtic Year: September 2011

Tuesday, 20 September 2011. Autumn Equinox: Alban Elued (Light of the Water): Mabon: Harvest Home. As the equinox approaches in this time of equal day and night great flocks of birds fly over my head, migrating, the trees are in their last bloom, the reds and golds light the paths I wander. Nature's colours stun me and I have to stop and stare. I feel the thinning of the veil and remember. September, a time of loss, withdrawal, of seasonal activities ending. And in my garden flowers bloom still. Slows an...
