HELLO.... A while ago I began creating a work of the Craft. I wanted it to be full of the feel of traditional magicks, but also very practical, ~ cool and current. I called it, ~ Bad Ass: Living And Spells. I soon realized it would develop into a series. Here you will find the "lace and trimmings" of that first volume, plus many more extra fascinations. PLEASE MAKE SURE to scroll down to the very end of this page so as to NOT MISS any of unusual, exquisite things there!!! *********
Yes...
AND, --- while you are being MAGICAL >>> This is what you should do: love the earth and sun and the animals, despise riches, give alms to everyone that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown or to any man or number of men ... re-examine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss what insults your own soul, and your very flesh shall be a great poem. --- Walt Whitman

Salome & Her Dance...
Rita Hayworth was a beauty and a great dancer, but it was the 1950s... If she did dance with seven veils, --- we all know the real Salome wore nothing under those veils >>>
Uh... More >>>
Salome: Was the "dancing" daughter of Herodias a child? >>>
Most people think of Salome as a conniving, dangerous seductress, but is her reputation as a seductress deserved? In this post, I look at the daughter of Herodias who “danced” for Herod Antipas in order to discover what kind of person she was and to find out what she did that resulted in John the Baptizer being beheaded. >>>
Preamble: Young Woman or Little Girl? >>>
I was reading 1 Samuel chapter 9 today, in the Greek, and I came across a word that is translated in 1 Samuel 9:11 (NIV) as “young women.” The word is "korasia" (plural). When I think of “young women” I think of women around the ages of 18–25, but the “young women” in 1 Samuel 9 were probably girls whose chore it was to get water for the household.
I decided to look into this word korasion (singular), at its meaning and its usage, and while studying I found that there are two korasia mentioned in the New Testament.
Jairus’ daughter is identified as a korasion in Matthew 9:24 & 25 and Mark 5:41 & 42. And we are given her age. She was twelve years old (Mark 5:42; Luke 8:42). The other korasion in the New Testament is the daughter of Herodias. (See Matt. 14:1–12; Mark 6:21–29). Josephus tells us that the daughter’s name was Salome.
In the past, I was led to believe that Salome was a sexy woman, an experienced temptress, and that she danced in a deliberately provocative manner for her stepfather Herod Antipas, but in real life Salome was possibly just a kid. --- From "I've Got Rhythm".
