I have happy news! Coven Pleiades will soon be adding a member. The young grandson of my silent but smiling room-mate Marisol has asked me to be his Magickal Teacher. I explained to him that I did not teach Magick in a vacuum, and I expected him to take seriously the Spiritual aspects of the teaching as well as the technical side. He would not get one of them from me without the other, and then must be progressing on all fronts to access more advanced techniques. He agreed, and we will see if he really understood. I gave him a little homework- to assemble notebook, journal , etc, for next class, I do not know when he will be Dedicated - but I want to make it soon- after he has seen my teaching style, and begins to grasp the magnitude of what he has asked of me, and what it will , in turn, require of
him. The Mysteries protect themselves from the merely curious!
It occurs to me that my Uranus in 8th House Cancer is having its ' effect again. My stars predict that I will acquire my children in unusual ways. I adopted Rhys, and am now teaching from my hospital bed, the grandson of my fellow inmate!
My older child, the ineffable Rhys, will also be Dedicated soon. He is young, 16, but he has lived with Pagans all his life, sat at my feet while I taught, been in all sorts of Circles. I was hoping for around Yule, but scheduling problems intervened. Anyway, I am very happy to announce that Pleiades is growing - Thank the Goddess!
