"The penetrating brilliance of swords
Wielded by followers of the Way
Strikes at the evil enemy
Lurking deep within
Their own souls and bodies"

-- Morihei Ueshiba

I had always used a broom and for banishing
and maybe a bundle of sage or other incense.
I seldom used a knife
and when I did, it was always directed outward.

sweep the floor
smudge the air

if need be, fling a dagger
crying out "APO PANTOS KAKODAIMONOS"

Today I cleared out a candle holder
for the first time, simply, cleanly, easily.

I held it to the flame, so the wax could begin to melt
just a little
just around the edges
just enough

I then struck into the wax with my knife
twisting it lightly
and out it came
without struggle
and without leaving anything behind
except a thin coat which protected the metal
and left everything brilliant.

I believe in parity between the physical and spiritual
I believe they mirror each other
and as this method is so effective in the physical
how much more-so in the world of the spirt?

I need to point my sword inside
I need to apply heat
not a burning heat, which dissolves everything
which burns and injures
just enough to bring things to a movable state
and with surgical precision
pluck the plank from my own eye
and see a better, more pure world.

To banish is to remove what should not be in a place
this works only so far as we do not care where things go
provided they leave
not in my circle
not in my back yard

To clean, to purify, is to put things in their proper place
to give them their proper name
to balance things as they should be.

I do not strive to remove all the wax from the holder
in fact to leave that thin coat makes everything better, smoother, cleaner

I do not strive to remove all stress and anxiety
but to give them their proper name and place
I can not fix the world
but I can improve myself
and in so doing, perhaps bring about a similar improvement
in the world around me.

This is the time to check in with the goals you set last month; evaluate where you stand and work to cleanse and purify yourself from any negativity that could be blocking your energy from flowing in a positive, productive direction. February is also the perfect time to rededicate yourself to your passions, spiritual path, patron deities, etc. Take care of yourself mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually so you can move into the rest of the year rejuvenated and renewed."

Total win from the street fair on Avenue of the Americas last weekend. #Selenite #crystals grow so straight that when polished they exhibit strong #chatoyancy. It would have been easy to drop a couple hundred at this place, they had so many cool #carvings & #jewelry, so choosing just this was a #happy #chore.

Selfie of a man with long white hair and a rainbow tie-dye shirt, wearing a beautiful selenite necklace from the street fair. Its crystals grow so straight that when polished, selenite has strong chatoyancy.

One for my fellow #Weather nerds and # IOS users this arvo: I use the #Purify #AdBlocker on my #IPad, and sometime this morning they finally decided that the Australian #BureauOfMeteorology website (which has long needed to change from http to https but hasn’t) was a baddie - and so blocked images. Took me ages to figure out what was happening (I blame too much blood in my caffeine stream) but then just a quick toggle. Yay for strong adblockers, boo to underfunded government systems!

These are the days whereon Thou hast bidden all men to observe the #Fast, that through it they may #purify their souls and rid themselves of all attachment to any one but Thee, and that out of their hearts may ascend that which will be worthy of the court of Thy majesty and may well beseem the seat of the revelation of Thy oneness.
