I'm finding a lot of things funny lately, but I don't think they are.**

***"Friends" policy: If you add me and you want me to add you, please comment in my journal and tell me why.

If you are a proponent of horse slaughter, have ever eaten horse meat, take Premarin (unless you don't know it kills horses...well it does so Make the Switch!) or support the slaughtering of horses in any way, don't bother friending me.

I am a curmudgeon, easily pissed off by those who label eclectic practices "Celtic," "Gaelic," "Norse" or any cultural label that they are not and I feel that it's up to those in the cultures to syncretize or not...so historical syncretisms are great but don't be telling me about your Gaulish-Aztec tradition, mkay? I also swear a lot, supposedly LJ wants warnings about that sort of thing. Now they have that filter thing so fuck it***

So ends the friending policy.

Self Pity
DH Lawrence
I never saw a wild thing
sorry for itself.
A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough
without ever having felt sorry for itself.


I'm a polytheist focused on Scottish Highland and Hebride culture, ban-fhiannaidh, Hillbilly survivalist, barbarian, writer, boss mare and all around raging, rabid, opinionated, savage alpha bitch. Any questions?

I am not the Celtic Reconstructionist you are looking for. In fact, by the current definition, I'm certainly not one at all. I also do not endorse any book about it you might see my name on or in and I certainly do not endorse anyone else whose names I might be linked to due to them. Warning: never, ever, collaborate. You're an idiot if you do.

Don't expect a lot of supa speshul mystical posts here. While I do ritual and ecstatic work, I don't discuss it a whole lot, tends to lend to people saying they worked with you and are part of your path when they aren't. This doesn't mean that I don't discuss aspects of my path and spirituality, just that I tend to talk more about the practical side of the warrior path than the mystical. So, yeah, when I talk about time with my horses, dogs, in the woods (even at work), working out and all sorts of "other" stuff, I'm actually also talking about my spirituality. Because everything ties in. If you think it doesn't, you're a fucking hobbiest.

I really sort of do make my living as a ban-fhiannaidh as well as professional fire-tender in the winter. ~;) In modern terms this is called nightwatch at a wildernes youth camp. Before that I was a reporter and photographer for a local paper, before that various other things...including my first career as a photojournalist long, long ago at a larger paper. My various interests, well, I guess you can see from my interest list and from the sites and communities here and elsewhere that I run.

My mate, [info]mythos999, and I have been taking steps into homesteading, but work does get in the way of doing this as far as we would like. We have a Greyhound, used to have three, an Aussie/Border Collie cross who is our trusty farm dog and we used to have an elderly Arabian horse who made an amazing recovery from his past abuse. We have now welcomed a new PMU filly into our lives, and inherited four Mini Horses, two of which already followed my father into the next world. We raise chickens, for meat as well as eggs so if you have a problem that..... We live in some of the most beautiful woods in the world in northern New Hampshire.

As well as my personal site (which is getting overhauled), which includes some of my writing, linked above, I do a Physical Feminism blog called Championing Ourselves. I also maintain The Sarah Connor Charm School site and the the SCCS ning network. I run a Sacred Horse mailing list for Pagan horse enthusiasts as well. I can occasionally be found running around MySpace, where I am mostly involved in horse related politics. My computer does not seem to get along with Tribe.net or Facebook.

I founded and run the following LiveJournal communities:
[info]sacredhorse for Pagans involved with horses and/or worship equine Deities
[info]horselistening for Natural Horsemanship, not Pagan specific
[info]womenofstrength for fierce, strong women, women only, not Pagan specific
[info]hooded_crow for Outlaw Warrior Poets and other mad wild mystics. This is a semi-private group and you MUST contact me to join unless you are already on my flist.

I also, uh, co-maintain, uh, yeah, that's it, [info]sccharmschool for those Terminator 2 fans who think that muscle and suvivivalist savvy DO matter. But, really, even if you join the community you want to join actual network where we'll be discussing the upcoming reunion and paintball tournament.

Want to buy me stuff? Well, probably not, even though these would help me with some projects I'm working on, but this is the wishlist anyway.

The WeatherPixie
The weather MAY be similar to this, which is actually Whitefield about an hour or more south of here, then again the weather on the Hill isn't always the same as down in Colebrook village, anyway.
