- About Me
- I have been wallking this path for most of my life and the longer I walk it, the less I realise I know.
I am founder and HPs of the Temple of the Dark Moon (Adelaide) and longest contributor of "Insight" magazine. I am also the visionary behind "The Goddess House" (also based in Adelaide), established to provide services, rituals and teachings in Goddess lore. These include a workshop on Egyptian Goddesses as well as a special day in honour of the various Dark Goddesses. More details of these events can be found on my web site - http://www.templedarkmoon.com (but enough about that plug) :)
I am endeavouring to complete my first book by the end of this year - that is providing I don't get too distracted in the meantime.
My current challenge is to turn my little dust bowl into something that resembles the hanging gardens of Babylon despite Adelaide's harsh climate.

Jade Buddha for Universal Peace
This buddha statue is the largest carved from gemstone quality jade in the world. The Jade Buddha is 2.7 metres high and sits on an alabaster throne of 1.4 high. The Jade Buddha itself weighs around 4 tonne and has been valued at $5 million. Its size and beauty make it a wonder of the world. The Buddha inside the Mahabodhi Stupa in Bodh Gaya… Continue

Spring Equinox observance - a wee report on what we did
Last night the Temple of the Dark Moon observed this time of balance with many students from the current Study Circle in attendance.
The ritual commenced with everyone being anointed and the standard set up in turning the temple in to a sacred space. The Maiden of the Awakening Spring and the Lord of the Pulsating Heartbeat were invoked before we were reminded that as with a physical garden, the seeds of hopes and inspirations we have sown over Mid Winter and Imbolc need tending… Continue

That would be so kind of you, not sure when I shall be visiting Adelaide in the near future but it might be within the next 4-6 months. I shall definantly let you know in advance though. And thanks for creating the ceremonial group too, High Magic/Golden Dawn practises are my forte.

Nightshade said… - That is really nice, many people shy away from Anubis's power. I haven't been in any group ritual in which he was invoked. He and Hecate are my Patron Guides and are a big part of my life and ritual practices.

madmouse said… - Good Morning Frances. Unfortunately these are old photos and alot of Brunos' work was destroyed. If i recall he lost most of his paintings and his gallery. fortunately some of the sculptues survived. Maybe you could do an article for Insight about him?

Some thing to think on
PERSONS OF THE DIALOGUE: Socrates and Alcibiades.
SOCRATES: Are you going, Alcibiades, to offer prayer to Zeus?
ALCIBIADES: Yes, Socrates, I am.
SOCRATES: you seem to be troubled and to cast your eyes on the ground, as though you were thinking about something.
ALCIBIADES: Of what do you suppose that I am thinking?
SOCRATES: Of the greatest of all things, as I believe. Tell me, do you not suppose that the Gods sometimes partly grant and partly reject the requests which we make… Continue

Orionid meteor shower
These meteors began life as tiny specks of dust ejected by Comet 1P/Halley during its innumerable trips around the Sun. Over the eons, these particles spread out along the comet's orbit. Every October, we run into this stream of dust.
if you are any place to see its a good show

A bit of Poety
Electra, lo, my way
To thee in the dawn hath sped,
And the cot on the mountain grey,
For the Watcher hath cried this day:
He of the ancient folk,
The walker of waste and hill,
Who drinketh the milk of the flock;
And he told of Hera's will;
For the morrow's morrow now
They cry her festival,
And before her throne shall bow
Our damsels all.

Some thing I found in my readings that I find VERY good and yes wiccan but very close to my path ways
