It is Beltane here “Down Under”
The sabbats are seasonal:
so in the southern hemisphere it is Beltane (MayDay)
In the northern hemisphere it is Samhain (Halloween)
Beltane was a fertility festival where the villages would come together:
This way “in- breeding” – in the same village was lessened.
A child conceived at Beltane was considered special.
We witches in the days before Wicca became popular; and before “political correctness” ;
jokingly called it the “Nookie Festival.”
Bright Nookie! 😀

This is me at the very first Australian Wiccan conference in 1984. At spring equinox:

Enjoy your celebrations:
Blessed Be
and be kind and respectful of non human life forms
–the continued existence of all life depends on it
I am anthrophobic – don’t think it is officially a word but
I have been saying this for several decades
(Break it down etymologically——
“etymology
/ˌɛtɪˈmɒlədʒi/
noun
the study of the origin of words and the way in which their meanings have changed throughout history.
“the decline of etymology as a linguistic discipline”
the origin of a word and the historical development of its meaning.
plural noun: etymologies”)
Part of my reasons are because I have suffered a life time of abuse from significant others and strangers who believe lies told by a narcissist
My main reason is most humans lack of respect for other life forms and are causing the extinction of all life on the planet
Religion defines a culture
Our culture believes other life forms don’t feel and have no soul.
The Koran and Old Testament are almost identical (I’ve read them both)
Presuming The Torah is similar to the Old Testament
Both Jehovah and Allah are the same god
Yet Islam and Judaism play a dominant role in Palestine and Israeli conflict
War destroys so much life.
When Constantine decided to combine Jesus teachings and Judaism and make it the religion of Rome –there was a meeting in Nicaea to decide what to put in the bible and what to leave out
Our culture believes other life forms don’t feel and have no soul.
We have destroyed the ecology and continue to make all life extinct.
I tried to practice ahimsa before I was aware of this word and concept:
People ridiculed and abused me for this:
some told me I was anthropomorphising animals and other life forms.
As if I would wish any creature to be human 😛
If we credit some “Being” as having created this reality, this “Being” would have to be a sadistic psychopath.
Every creature has to deprive another life form of its existence in order to survive. ( Its called eating)
Just breathing kills other life forms! As we breathe in micro organisms.
I believe everything that exists has a consciousness: And because of my clairvoyant experiences I believe everything survives beyond physical death.
I asked clairvoyantly about “the meaning of life” which strangely enough isn’t 42 (Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy)
The answer I got was more a concept than words but translated, I was asked if I could conceptualize NO linear time and when I said “No” I was told that “they” couldn’t explain.
The clairvoyant Experiences of a Sceptic is not a literary masterpiece
but a true story.
I don’t know the meaning of life:
nor understand the nature of reality:
I do know physical death is not the end.
And there are so many amazing stories omitted so as not to break client confidentiality.
The second part I wrote as therapy and had not intended to include.
It wasn’t included in the original l publication
( I started shaking when I tried to write about the abuse so it is badly written and a great deal omitted)

Blessed Be

–the continued existence of all life depends on it
Something I have been told I shouldn’t complain about—-but I am –because I want to —-also I know that many people can relate to this
I had 63 years and 8 months of abuse from my mother
I am almost 76 years old now
When the person that gave birth to me was alive I loved her and all I wanted was a kind word but her insults and abuse continued up to and including the week she died
She definitely fits the definition of a narcissist – her only goal was to be the centre of attention
“Narcissistic personality disorder is a mental health condition in which people have an unreasonably high sense of their own importance. They need and seek too much attention and want people to admire them. People with this disorder may lack the ability to understand or care about the feelings of others”
She was also a convincing liar
I am not surprised that people believed her lies – most people believed here to be all sweetness and light and believed that either me (or my Dad when alive) were horrible to her
i even believed her lies at times – knowing she lied about everything and anything
After Dad died she told me that the dog (a staffy cross bitch) wasn’t well and convinced me to have her put down
It only occurred to me much later that she just couldn’t be bothered with the dog
For as long as I remembered she told me “you are useless; a failure; a disappointment; cannot do anything right; neither use nor ornament”
I have blocked out a lot of my abuse but somethings will occasionally trigger a flashback.
When we were still at Northfield and I was already going to school my mother pushed me into the wood burning part of the wood stove when it was lit and shut the door: She then pulled me out: wrapped me in a blanket and told people that she had saved my life after I crawled in. I had first degree burns.
A few years later we moved to Salisbury North. It was still mostly farms at the time.
When I was ten my mother was bashing me with a scrubbing brush and had also washed my mouth out with soap. I said to her “I haven’t done anything wrong” and she told my that she just felt like bashing me. Despite this, for over half a century I believed that I deserved abuse because this is what everyone told me.
Had I not believed that I was the problem and seen what my mother was like I wouldn’t have let her mind my children and my husband’s nephews and saved these nephews from trauma that has affected their lives
In this photo taken 2003 (I was 54)
I put my arm around my mother and she moved away

Blessed Be
and be kind and respectful of non human life forms
–the continued existence of all life depends on it
When I walked this morning there was a snail squashed on the foot path –it really upset me especially as there was nothing I could do to help
When I was younger I thought that I was insane because I cared about other life forms
Probably because my mother threatened to have me put in a mental hospital because I didn’t want to eat meat
I tried my best to practice ahimsa before I was aware of this word/concept
Impossible in a culture that believes only humans have a soul and only money matters
As a child I got a bashing for not wanting to eat meat:
The same meal served to me for breakfast lunch and tea until I ate it:
And my mother threatened to have me put in a mental institution
I fed the local birds for 25 years when i lived at Goolwa –not accptable now that I am in a retirement village
When i lived in Goolwa mindless automatons told me
“Do not to feed the birds -they are meant to find their own food”
It doesn’t occur to them that the human plague (of 8.2 Billion) has destroyed the homes and food sources of all other life – making so many extinct.
The larger birds (carnivores) kill the smaller birds for food because thanks to homo sapiens there are not enough mice worms or small reptiles for them to eat
A couple of years back in Australia they started culling the kookaburras to stop them killing the smaller birds
I feed the crows too –one neighbour complained about their noise
The other told me that she likes the Ibis but not the crow.
Crows like many other life forms are disliked because of cultural programming
The crow I fed, fed the baby before she? fed herself
I wasn’t able to take a photo because the baby flew away when I walk outside – came back when I went in.
Humans have this effect on me — have said I am anthrophobic for decades – don’t think it is an actual word)
It upsets me that people use poisons and insecticides
And label rats and mice vermin
And then there are kangaroos which most farmers consider vermin and kill them
In the 1970s I was a member of the original Greenpeace
We were labelled dangerous radicals
I was ridiculed and abused for being in Animal Liberation and a vegetarian
This has changed
These days I am abused for caring about insects moths and spiders
And told that insects are vermin and dangerous to my health
Humans are dangerous–
Considering all the positive changes in my life time I am optimistic that
the caring, intelligent people will prevail and stop all life from becoming extinct.
Enjoy your day
I wrote and published this sci fi short story a few years ago when the human population was only 7.4 billion:
(1st published 4th April 2017)
It is now mor than 8 billion.
Our cultural norms and the Protestant Ethic are causing the extinction of all life.
I wrote this as social satire and sympathetic magic
I wanted to put my idea that humans are not indigenous to the planet
The idea that we were genetically engineered is from Mayan writings plus my belief that humans are not indigenous to the planet
The concept of translocation was once a practice pre Roman Empire and apparently still is in some so called primitive cultures
The idea that humans were livestock for the gods is mine but am sure others have thought this
I chose Ophiuchus because I was I was drawn to this constellation
I chose Kunapipi because I respect and admire the wisdom and spirituality of indigenous Australians

What the bleep has been around for more than two decades
It covers quantum physics and neuro physiology
In this movie they explained that if we don’t have a concept of something it doesn’t exist for us
It occurred to me that some people who are told that they are hallucinating are seeing things others cannot see because they don’t have a concept for this
People tend to believe that a belief in God and heaven is necessary for a belief in an “afterlife”
Surviving death isn’t synonymous with a religious belief.
We do not understand the nature of reality.
(or at least I don’t)
It appears we exist in an alternate reality when we are “not here”! In this reality the electrons are apparently moving at a different speed around the protons and neutrons so it is out of phase. ( This is my very limited understanding of quantum physics)
Another misconception is that people have to be “earth bound” to communicate with the living:
NOT SO!
I asked “clairvoyantly” about “the meaning of life” which strangely enough isn’t 42 (Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy)

I should have called this book LIFE AFTER DEATH as my experiences convinced me that this life isn’t all that there is –
The clairvoyant Experiences of a Sceptic is not a literary masterpiece

it is so much better if you can have these experiences first hand.

A SHORT STORY ABOUT HEALING THE BLUE PLANET
I wrote and published this sci fi short story on the 4th April 2017 when the human population was only 7.4 billion:
It is now more than 8 billion
I wrote this short story as social satire and sympathetic magic
The idea that we were genetically engineered is from Mayan writings plus my belief that humans are not indigenous to the planet
The concept of translocation was once a practice pre Roman Empire and apparently still is in some so called primitive cultures
The idea that humans were livestock for the gods is mine but am sure others have thought this
I chose Ophiuchus because I was I was drawn to this constellation
I chose Kunapipi because I respect and admire the wisdom and spirituality of indigenous Australians
I started writing the prequel the same year 2017 –but I still haven’t finished it – I lose my motivation because I don’t like scary stuff and it is where humans are grown as live stock by the “gods” –maybe I’ll finish it this year
There are excellent doctors and nurses but generally speaking the medical system is set up to support the drug companies and isn’t concerned about helping people
The success of any treatment or drug is at least twenty five percent placebo effect
Check out doctorsaredangerous.com —-when I paste the link the page opens and I don’t want this here but will put at the end
Chinese medicine teats cancer like the flu
I’ve just started watching New Amsterdam again on Netflix
I’d rather be doing house work but as usual pain and other health stuff is forcing me to rest
I like New Amsterdam it covers real issues that I can relate to from working in the system
I have worked with excellent doctors and nurses but as Jockko Sims character says
“you know the whole system is rigged
— they are not going to let you come here and just help people”
Despite more than half a century of medical and surgical mistakes and being treated like I am an attention seeking hypochondriac I didn’t spit the dummy until August 2021 – telling both my doctor and cardiologist I wanted nothing more to do with western medicine
I do not trust the medical system
Because
it is controlled by drug companies that only care about profit not people:
In medical centres there is not enough time allotted to each patient hence production line people
Hospitals are “total institutions”
A person’s rights are taken from them and they are in the hands of people whose goal is to get rid of their nuisance value
This is because staff to patient ratio isn’t adequate
And then there is NOCEBOS — “pointing the bone”
(e.g. — you have less than six months to live)
some doctors have a patronising attitudes to patients:
There is always the good the bad and the indifferent:
The bad and indifferent are dangerous in an health system

I am am not an organ donor because I am aware that
if you have a 50% chance of survival and you are an organ donor — kiss your chances good bye.
I do not trust nor support western medicine
for a variety of reasons: –
i had PND with both pregnancies
With the second pregnancy I could feel the chemical change —the doctor said “You have nothing to be depressed about Go home and snap out of it”
I suffer from medical and surgical mistakes:
Including two major traumas
Came to under anaesthetic in 1974
Next time I had minor exploratory surgery –1992 – I came to with the bed perpendicular horrific chest pains and was told that they nearly didn’t get me back
Had a gynea repair in 2007 which I still suffer pain and problems from
It wasn’t until 2011 that a doctor took the trouble to find out what was wrong
She told me that the gynaecologist that performed my surgery had been reported for making mistakes before but was still practicing
At the beginning of this century I was put on triple the normal dose of meclobomide straight up — after being on this drug for several years a doctor told me that I should not be on an anti psychotic
I was put on tramadol and ignored for several years when I said I felt like the walking dead
I have had breathing difficulties for well over a decade and until 2020 told there was nothing the matter
But when I had an angiogram after an heart attack the cardiologist said my breathing difficulties were not related to my heart condition
I was diagnosed with diverticulitis in the early 1990s yet after I moved to Goolwa
I would go to the doctors telling them I had diverticulitis and I was either completely ignored or told that I didn’t
–it wasn’t until a CT scan in 2011 which confirmed io had diverticulitis that the doctors took any notice
And there’s more
A friend now deceased went to the doctors on numerous occasions saying she wasn’t well and they told her nothing was the matter
When her cancer was diagnosed she was told “If you came here sooner we could have done something”
I am aware of numerous people that have died because of medical and surgical mistakes:
some were friends or acquaintances:
some were related to people I have done clairvoyant readings for.
Both my parents died of a continuous high dose of morphine:
their death certificated said heart attack
Dad said that he didn’t want morphine and they ignored him
Mum complained it made her too dizzy and they ignored her.
When I tell people that patients are deliberately put on an high dose of morphine which stops the oxygen flow to the heart as euthanasia they don’t believe me
Doctors are taught Freudian psychology
This affects the way some doctors treat women
Freud says that all women are neurotic And have penis envy
His test subjects were twelve middle class Jewish women
The majority of doctors are controlled by drug companies
Drug companies are horrifically cruel to animals:
Not just when testing drugs but when making same.
One example that I am sure few people are aware of:
They have the abattoirs leave all new borns to die of dehydration and starvation so they can harvest the hormones that this death produces.
How do I know this?
In 1982 the husband of a staff member asked that I report to the RSPCA that new born calves were left to die of dehydration and starvation:
The RSPCA staff called me a liar and a trouble maker:
I put something in writing and it was ignored.
Presumably the RSPCA is funded by drug companies and the meat industry.
Over the years since,
I have learned from people who work at the abattoirs or collect stock from them
that all new borns are left to die this way and that the drug companies ask for it.
It was my podiatrist who told me why –“The drug companies harvest the hormones produces when animals die this way.”
I presume most people know how drug companies collect Premarin = pregnant mares urine?
Another reason
Western medicine treats symptoms
not the cause
Long ago
when I dispensed drugs from the old fashion drug trolley
I noticed that I was giving one drug then another to compensate for the side effects
e.g. antispychotics cause pseudo Parkinsonism.
hence I gave out another drug for Parkinsonism.
I like “New Amsterdam”
And the movie “The Doctor”
they highlight mistakes
and that some doctors care more about advancing their career than caring for patients.
Western medicine came into being at the time of the “Inquisition”
when village herbalists were executed and replaced by male doctors.
Eastern medicine diagnoses using iridology and kinesiology
and treats with acupuncture and herbal remedies.
I was including this Monty Python sketch to highlight doctor’s attitude to patients but it reminded me of humorous events
I was working in a general hospital when Monty Pythons Meaning of Life was in the cinemas:
One doctor would say “Bring in the machine that goes Ping”
And one of the charge nurses when coming on duty would say “morning
morning” –like fish scene.
Be well
be happy
