Episode 2 Yule, Road Opening, Deer bones and Myth Walk
We opened our podcast with some chanting. We love to chant as you will come to learn if you follow our podcast. We talked a little about what we did for Yule and shared some chants. I have posted the lyrics to the chants. Some of our Yule ritual was borrowed from Sarah Lawless: http://sarahannelawless.com/2012/06/26/bc-cleansing-and-consecration/ We did a ritual to bless our animal friends and River shared "For One Who Has Died Violently or in Great Distress" by Starhawk. Not your usual Yule celebration but it worked for us. What did you do for Yule? We would love to hear about it!
We talked about road opening work in the magic box section. We received some feedback that this might be better work for opening the road for our podcast. We performed candle magic after doing research on Lucky Mojo Website.
For our bone talk it was all about deer. We shared our experience with cleaning our deer skull for our stang. It was definitely an experience and I have posted some picture of the process from start to finish and these are not for the faint of heart.

We are also working on tanning our first hide. It is only partially finished.
We talked about the possible uses of a deer antler tip in our bone set. Some ideas were pride or protection. It could also be the beginning or the ending of something. It is bone so it could be pointing to descendants or ancestors. The point in your reading could be pointing towards something or possibly be the tip of the iceberg with a need to dig deeper.
On the myth walk we started working on part 1. Of course we sang a chant, Mother of Darkness, and shared the Charge of the Dark Goddess by Azreal K. We made our list, our times we felt we were in the underworld due to issues in our life. We shared a few of these on our podcast and would love to hear some of your experiences or general feedback. We put our ear to the ground, literally, and found it to be very uncomfortable. So more practice is needed to listen and maybe in the future we won't be actually getting on the ground. This exercise is something we will continue working on. For next time we will complete part 1.
Thanks to everyone that has tuned in or read the blog. We would love to hear from you!
