all of nature is beautiful, as long as we are respecting her is the most important part of any ritual regardless [of] what time of the year it is." well, i would say that if you feel respecting nature is the most important part of any ritual, then choosing something that is naturally in season still seems best. i'm sure you can buy sunflowers in june, but they will have been imported from abroad or grown in man-made hot houses. shipping long distances by train, plane or massive lorry doesn't seem particularly natural, neither does forcing plants in artificial environments where they might not even get any natural sunlight. that certainly doesn't mean i would never put out-of-season flowers on my own altar. when my mother died i wanted pink roses on her coffin and on the altar for her funeral. my mother loved roses and pink was her favourite colour. there were none in bloom in my garden at that time of year, so i happily asked an independent florist to source them for me. she made a beautiful floral arrangement and i was happy to support a local small business. but, in that instance, the rite was to honour my mother, not specifically to honour the season. i also realise that we all lead busy lives and if we are asked to bring flowers to a ritual it can sometimes be easier to pick up a bunch at the supermarket with the groceries than go out and pick them ourselves. the supermarket also might not offer much in the way of local, seasonal blooms. we have to be realistic and don't always have the time or energy to make our rituals exactly the way we would like them. of course, we are all free to do what we want in our own personal rituals, so long as we don't harm anyone in the process. but, if i was doing a rite specifically to celebrate the season, i would still feel uncomfortable putting a sunflower on my altar long before it was in season. the wise old witch who trained me, back when i was a lot younger, used to say: "the first thing you do when you are writing a ritual for the wheel of the year is look out of the window. what can you see growing there? what's happening in nature? use that for inspiration." i think that is still good advice. posted by badwitch at 10:35 no comments: links to this post email this blogthis! share to twitter share to facebook share to pinterest labels: flowers , pagan , ritual , wheel of the year friday, 22 june 2018 music: nine inch nails - bad witch released today well it seems an old goth band that i rather liked back in the day has released a new album called bad witch. i reckon i ought to buy it, even if just for the name. here are some links to articles and reviews of nin's bad witch: https://consequenceofsound.net/2018/06/nine-inch-nails-bad-witch-stream/ https://www.loudersound.com/reviews/nine-inch-nails-bad-witch-album-review https://theartsdesk.com/new-music/cd-nine-inch-nails-%e2%80%93%c2%a0bad-witch you can view bad witch on amazon . posted by badwitch at 10:00 no comments: links to this post email this blogthis! share to twitter share to facebook share to pinterest labels: music , witch book review: a pilgrimage in japan by joan stamm this book is perfect summer reading. a pilgrimage in japan takes you on a delightful journey to the 33 temples of kannon, the bodhisattva of compassion, through the words of joan stamm. this is an ancient pilgrimage route in western japan, which has been travelled for over a thousand years. it is a buddhist pilgrimage, but honestly you don't have to be a buddhist in order to enjoy the delightful and evocative descriptions of travelling to places of historic interest and natural beauty in a far-off country. nevertheless, publisher mantra books concentrates on the spiritual aspects of a pilgrimage in japan on its website , where it says: kannon, the bodhisattva of compassion, is the one who “hears the cries of the world” and vows to “assist anyone in distress.” as the author embarks on the pilgrimage route that extends from the japan sea to the pacific ocean, through the ancient city of kyoto and the modern city of osaka, and to the many mountain tops in between, she allows the special characteristics and sacred presence of each place to bring forth relevant buddhist teaching; letting go of attachment, contemplating impermanence, engaging in right livelihood, being of service, and other teachings found in classic buddhism. the dharma, or doctrines of universal truth, intertwines with rich descriptions of mountain hikes, remote temples, modern shugendo practices, sacred icons and the author’s spiritual insights. journeys change us. those embarked on especially to contemplate or confront specific concepts can change us even more. however, joan stamm's contemplations aren't preachy - she isn't trying to convert anyone to buddhism. she describes the thoughts she has as she takes difficult routes to remote sacred sites, and well-travelled paths to quiet sanctuaries within busy cities. she contemplates the messages associated with each one when she arrives. she makes it clear that these are her own thoughts and feelings. through her beautiful descriptions she has inspired me to look for my own pilgrimage route; to seek answers to my own spiritual questions by travelling in body, mind and spirit to those ancient and sacred sites that call to me, on my pagan path. you can view a pilgrimage in japan on amazon . links and previous related posts http://www.mantra-books.net/books/pilgrimage-in-japan http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2011/02/ley-line-pilgrimage-to-brides-well.html http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2009/12/lot-of-bottle.html posted by badwitch at 08:00 no comments: links to this post email this blogthis! share to twitter share to facebook share to pinterest labels: books , buddhism , holiday , review , temples , walk thursday, 21 june 2018 witch room tales: my sun light for the solstice here is one of my favourite things in my witchy room. it is a lamp designed to look like the sun. alt
