Lover's Plea to Springflirtatious Spring, back and away at Your pace
Some would have You shackled
I choose to wait
You will mature soon enough
I, too, dream of You
but I step back from anticipation
I know You cannot read
Our designation of days is no obligation to You
I do not blame demanding elder Winter
He has already handed You the reins
Summer cannot lead while He is young
and lady Autumn rests somewhere
now Mother Nature and Father Time
I know They are wise
much wiser than We
I call to You, Spring
let Them guide You
as They guide Us all
be nurtured and blissful as You always are
just know that We wait
We Animals, the Green Folk, the Small Lover's Plea to Spring by ~NorthWind-foxtrot229

Yule 2012 Offered WordsTo the Rising Sun Itself:

Be a beacon of hope in our dark times. Bring warmth and light and love and life to the cold, scarred land. May we enter a new cycle in rebirth and renewal.

To Iris, my patron dear:

I thank Thee for Your continued support and guidance. Continue to shine and lift up those who need it most. May You be forever inspiring.

To Sekhmet, the Sun's Right Eye:

Bring peace to the warring people. Bring fire to the coldhearted. Let fear and hatred stand not before You. Raise Your disc high and burn through the chains that bind us.

To Hecate, She of the Choice:

We find ourselves in troubled times. Let Your lantern join the SYule 2012 Offered Words by ~NorthWind-foxtrot229

Oh SilvanusIn a forest grove, in midday sun
We all have gathered here
We call upon the deities
With whom we'll sing and cheer

There is still room within our space
For more to come and play
In peace and trust and footsteps light
Come dance with us today!

Oh, Silvanus
Oh won't You dance with me?
Cernunnos, Pan, and the Green Man
I'd love to dance with Thee

Come, elementals, nymphs, and fae
We all will welcome You
Come sing with us on this midday
And dance all evening too

In meadow clearing, soft and sweet
Our voices sing along
To bells and whistles, chimes and tones
Of bird- and insect-song

Oh, grand spirits
Oh won't You dance with meOh Silvanus by ~NorthWind-foxtrot229

MultiplicityThe path bites e'er harder; my worn, weary soles
Burdened with secrets, too many ways to go
Take the price of betrayal or the reward of trust?
My heart a full pouch...carry it I must

Shall a lion in triumph rear upon my crown
or in questions, anguish, and pleas will I drown?
Each of these ends has appeared in these eyes
Yet to find the answer I am not enough wise

With power and promise I stand here and now
She of the Choice smiles, for She knows
Her teeth I see, wicked in Her lantern's shine
My worry She feels, hears in Her dogs' whines

With split fingers She beckons down that hazy road
And the choice I will follow, now I have beMultiplicity by ~NorthWind-foxtrot229

My first Witchvox essay!

by ~NorthWind-foxtrot229, Apr 29, 2013, 12:27:43 PM
Personal Journal

Mood: Delighted
Reading: studying for finals
Watching: YouTube stuff

I almost forgot to mention, my first essay for The Witches' Voice has been published! They weren't kidding when they said there was a 3-month-ish backlog of submissions, but my patience has been rewarded. If you are interested in reading about my experiences with Iris, please follow the link at the end of this journal. The Witches' Voice has requested a 30-day exclusive use, so I can't post the essay itself here. I appreciate feedback; feel free to leave it here if you have any. Thank you!

We come in peace!

I'm a Pokenerd, Avatar fan, formerly the world's biggest fangirl of Riku from Kingdom Hearts, a horror/fantasy/scifi fan, and an avid reader/writer/2D artist (though that doesn't mean I'm good at it). I am a college student working toward an accounting major.

I'm also an Eclectic Pagan; please respect my path as I respect yours. I am on Witchvox, also as Rachel Iriswings, currently awaiting approval of my first essay.

Any questions? If yes, then comment or message me, I'd love to talk! Oh, and I hand out llama badges if I think you're awesome. Doesn't take much to convince me.

These are a few of my favorite things~
Pokemon: Ninetales, but do I have to pick just ONE?!
Food: Either pasta or fruit...no, definitely pasta.
Color: I like every color (with Iris as my patron Goddess, how couldn't I?), but light blue is my favorite
Music: Rock, Metal, the occasional something else
Bands: My favorites are Green Day and Avenged Sevenfold, but otherwise it's hard to choose; this list goes on forever
Real Animal: Fox, Cheetah
Mythical Creature: Gryphon, Kitsune
School Subject: Mythology, Psychology, Biology, Algebra/Calculus
Genres: Scifi, horror, fantasy, action/adventure, mystery

Current Residence: West Michigan, United States
Favourite genre of music: rock, metal
Favourite photographer: Henry Townshend (lol)
Favourite style of art: anything and everything
Operating System: Windows 7
MP3 player of choice: iPod
Personal Quote: Perception is reality. Everything is relative.

Thanks for the llama!

Thanks for the watch and the llama!

Thank you for the point, love! May I ask why? C:

~NorthWind-foxtrot229 Nov 5, 2012 Hobbyist Writer

You're welcome! You have a donation pool going, so I donated. I only ever get points from trades for llama badges, and all I ever do with those points is donate them to people when I see they have donation pools going for whatever reasons.

~Eosthewitch Sep 11, 2012

Thanks for the llama. Good luck with your school. Have you considered casting focus spells or the like?

~NorthWind-foxtrot229 Sep 11, 2012 Hobbyist Writer

You're welcome, and thank you. I don't do much in the way of spellcraft, but that wouldn't be a bad idea. I'm still practicing meditation, too. If you have any spell ideas you'd like to share, I'd be glad to hear them.
