Well I actually wasn't aware of it either until I came across http://caeraustralis.com.au/beltaine.htm and got in contact with the site's authors. :)

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.

I have not been around much of late because ...

I have been working on my very first book in an attempt to have it ready for publication in the new year. However it is an extremely slow process when full time work, organising an active coven and all my other responsibilities often take precedent ... but I am getting there slowly.

What is amazing me is that I have still been able to keep on top of my other writing commitments with Insight magazine - http://www.insightpublishing.com.au/ as wel… Continue

Bealtaine Magickal Retreat

A selection of photos are in the process of being uploaded into the Temple's photo album of the retreat we held over the weekend, just prior to the commencement of the fire ban so we were able to have our bale fire.

http://picasaweb.google.com/TempleDarkMoon/Bealtaine2009# is the link.

Enjoy.

Jade Buddha for Universal Peace

Saturday evening (after the workshop had finished), we took a visit to the Phap Hoa Pagoda Temple where the Jade Buddha for Universal Peace was on display.

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

Apologies and Notification

Apologies and Notification

~ November 2009 ~

Readers and Travelers alike have probably journeyed to The Cosmic Cauldron Newsletter since the Ocotober issue appeared, scratched their heads and wandered away wondering when the November 2009 issue was going to appear.

I apologise profusely for my tardiness to inform and for the lack of publication.

Due to the Staging of The Druids Dreaming Event and Dragonfly and my Wedding the Day before, I found I did not have either the time or energy t… Continue

Some thing to think on

ALCIBIADES II
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
