Life on Earth

Published March 30, 2021 by tindertender

“Before I was six years old, my grandparents and my mother had taught me that if all the green things that grow were taken from the earth, there could be no life. If all the four-legged creatures were taken from the earth, there could be no life. If all the winged creatures were taken from the earth, there could be no life. If all our relatives who crawl and swim and live within the earth were taken away, there could be no life. But if all the human beings were taken away, life on earth would flourish. That is how insignificant we are.”

Russell Means, Oglala Lakota Nation (November 10, 1939 – October 22, 2012).

Love Is All Around…

… just the way we like it.

Can you hear me, O Goddess!

Published March 8, 2021 by tindertender

Sweet virgin of the forests who hunts the night under the glow of the moon.

Terrible lady who avenges harm against the young.

Daughter of Heaven

Can you hear me as I ask that you walk with me and bring into my life your many divine blessings?

Let my songs reach you!

Accompanied by the sweet scents of fruits and herbs that I burn upon this altar.

Let my prayers be heard!

Accompanied by my sincerest wish that all upon this sacred Earth be touched by your beneficence.

Let my hopes flow!

That all know peace of mind.

If you hear me, O Artemis, and your will aligns with mine, I ask of you that boon!

Grant us the willingness to temper that part of ourselves more animal than man!

Grant us the will to make it happen!

For in our hearts is your light if only we choose to let it shine forth.

Don’t Panic!

Get ready!

After 17 years underground where they’ve been since 2004, feeding on sap from the roots of plants, Brood X, one of the largest broods of cicadas, will be emerging soon to lay their eggs in trees.

The eggs will hatch 4-6 weeks later and the “big brood” will spend 2-4 weeks in late May and early June courting, mating, flying, and driving people crazy because cicadas can emit sounds between 80 and 100 decibels, equivalent to a low-flying airplane or a lawn mower.

You can expect to see them in Tennessee and about 14 other states as soon as the temperature reaches 64 degrees. Their offspring will head back underground until 2038.

Glowing Hermit-ics

Published February 3, 2021 by tindertender

They say Leo’s love attention, crave it even, wanting to be the center of everyone’s focus. ‘They’ do not know me, or many others.

I am of the mind that people say this about the Leo simply because the ‘horoscope’ that has been printed for decades describes us as such.

Mostly, it’s just “leave us the heck alone”.

But when we shine, we shine so bright, which may cause this misperception, and even cause some to despise us for the genuine happiness we radiate.

And when we radiate happiness, it GLOWS and gets all over everything and everyone. Maybe this is why so many talk smack about our brightness, calling it ego.

Sometimes the brightest lights are the most severely attacked.

The slanderers cannot stand the light shining upon them. After all … we are quite bright, illuminating the shadows some try to hide.

Personally, I find relief when others decide not to focus on me … allowing me ME time … without interruption, or judgement, or scheming ways to manipulate or control.

Maybe I get this from my recluse father.

Genetics … hermit-ics … hahahaa

Just don’t spray. It’s that easy.

This is a honey bee. The pollen on her legs is from dandelions. Her tongue is sticking out due to what killed her that was on the dandelions. It’s spring, dandelions are the bees first food.

This bee is dead from weed killer spread on what we see as weeds, but what nature sees as food. Please don’t spray for weeds until you see the blackberries blooming. In this area, weeds, flowers and fruit trees are bees only source of food until middle of June. There are FAR more weeds than flowers or fruit trees, so it’s their only food source.

No bees, no food crops for us, and we all starve.

Full Wolf Moon

Published January 28, 2021 by tindertender

The sunset embers smolder low,
The Moon climbs o’er the hill,
The peaks have caught the alpenglow,
The robin’s song is still.
~ John L. Stoddard (1850–1931)

Wolf perched on mossy rock getting ready to howl at the new Full Wolf Moon peaking this afternoon; Thursday, January 28, at 2:18 P.M. EST.
1-28-’21.

May your fires rekindle anew, alive, hopeful optimism of regeneration.

Animals in the Astral

Published November 29, 2020 by tindertender

This virus isn’t just affecting this realm.

It is affecting the animals in the astral.

They want to know what it is.

Their hair is falling out and their eyes are weeping.

Everything is getting “cleaned out”.

Raven Dream

It was on top of my car, dead. I was driving down the freeway and it fell into my open window. I grabbed it and flung it to the road, leaving it behind me.
