“Let them eat cake”
Seeing James Cromwell on morning television –
motivated me to re post this
He was saying how visiting an abattoirs in the mid 1970s caused him to become vegan
Wiser and well known people have advocated for other life forms and the ecology long before me.
Peter Singer
Albert Schweitzer
John Newton (wrote Amazing Grace)
Irving Stowe and Dorothy Stowe, (founders of GreenPeace)
Casey Affleck
Alec Baldwin
James Cromwell
David Attenborough
And many many more
And there were movies
“The Day the Earth Stood Still” (re make)
And “Avatar’
“Let them eat cake”
a famous quote attributed to Marie-Antoinette, the queen of France during the French Revolution. As the story goes, it was the queen’s response upon being told that her starving peasant subjects had no bread.
Most people have this attitude and response to starving wild life.
e.g.
I am often told
“don’t feed the birds they have to find their own food”
People don’t realize that humans in western culture have destroyed the homes and food sources of all other life forms.
Our norms and attitudes are causing the extinction of all life.
In our culture we don’t share with one another; never mind other life forms.
Karl Marx who advocated sharing – communism – is seen as evil.
And please know China and other so called communist countries have “state capitalism” not communism.
(I wrote a paper on Karl Marx when I majored in sociology)
Some one told me not to go on about the ecology because there is nothing that they can do:
but they and you can:
Do what you can in the microcosm
Feed the birds even if your neighbours abuse you because they don’t want the noise and the poop.
Don’t chop down trees
Trees don’t light fires
humans do
Makes more sense to get rid of arsonists rather than trees
Google eco friendly homes and gardens for ideas:
Don’t use poisons:
Try your best to adhere to ahimsa
Don’t kill insects and mice etc
Enjoy your day
A SHORT STORY ABOUT HEALING THE BLUE PLANET
I wrote and published this sci fi short story a few years ago (under the above title) when the human population was only 7.4 billion:
(1st published 4th April 2017)
It is now 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 realize my writing style doesn’t fit what people expect
My excuse –I majored in sociology not literature 😛
I wanted to put my idea that humans are not indigenous to the planet
A few lines from this short story:
“Most humans think that those who live in harmony with the environment are primitive and inferior. Actually they don’t think.
They just mindlessly conform to what those in power and their entertainment media tell them.
They are really stupid but consider themselves superior to all other life forms because they talk:
They think if something or someone doesn’t talk they don’t understand.
They thoughtlessly destroy everything. They call some creatures vermin, when humans are the vermin. They kill insects and destroy all the trees despite the fact that insects and trees are essential.
And everything literally goes down the drain polluting the oceans instead of nourishing other life.”
In the following book I hope to help those who wish to develop their clairvoyant abilities.
In “The Clairvoyant Experiences Of A Sceptic” I told a few of my clairvoyant experiences.
Listening to others similar stories made me realize that
it is so much better if you can have these experiences first hand.
Kung fu tz (Confucius) say “Perseverance prospers”
So don’t give up – you will succeed
And use the recorded meditations in my blog
The clairvoyant Experiences of a Sceptic is not a literary masterpiece
but a true story. I majored in sociology not literature
I dont 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)
POPULATION
When I was growing up the population of the whole of Australia was 9million
And the majority lived in the eastern states
The suburbs in South Australia were basically small country towns
We moved from Northfield to Salisbury
Which still had horse troughs in the main street and there were still farms with return veranda houses
We didn’t lock our homes or our cars
In the hot weather we slept on the front lawn
Small businesses treated people as valued customers
The bus driver would drop children off at their front door if it were raining
I could phone home from a public phone box even if I had no money
I just asked the operator to put me through
Everyone was friendly and they helped each other
Salisbury is now the suburb from hell
When I first moved to Goolwa it was basically a country town
Everyone said “Hello” whether they knew you or not
And small businesses treated us like valued customers and friends
These days no one says hello unless they know you
People are rude and impatient and only a few small businesses have been able to afford to stay in business
The meaning behind my story is that the human plague isn’t just bad for the ecology and other life forms it is bad for humans too

Magic
magic”/ˈmadʒɪk/Submit
noun
1.
the power of apparently influencing events by using mysterious or supernatural forces.
“suddenly, as if by magic, the doors start to open”
******************
The first page of my Book of Shadows which was started in 1983
“Eight words the Wiccan Rede fulfil
An it HARM NONE
Do what thou will”
Despite training “would be witches” last century and earlier this century I stopped believing that we create our own reality.
I now acknowledge that we do but that there are other variables influencing this:
not the least being the thoughts and words of other homo sapiens.
Plus we are programmed to believe we have no control over our lives and that there are experts –
(Ex spurts = unknown drips under pressure)
that know better than us
Hence the Witches Pyramid “says” To know: to Dare: to Will and TO KEEP SILENT
I used to tell neophytes that it is intent that matters and emotion that empowers.
We draw energy by chanting and dancing (the cone of power).
Most people would be aware of the idea of a self fulfilling prophecy:
“A self-fulfilling prophecy is a prediction that directly or indirectly causes itself to become true, by the very terms of the prophecy itself, due to positive feedback between belief and behaviour.” Wikipedia
The power of suggestion –When I am in too much pain to cope or my anxiety disorder kicks in I say to my self “RELAX” and “SMILE”.
Try saying smile to yourself and see what happens 😀
Another thing about magic is
that it our subconscious
–we witches call younger self
–that communicates with our higher self—
which I personally call my true self —
and our subconscious takes everything literally
any good psychologist or hypnotherapist will tell you this
Since I was seven I remember being able to sense my
“true self”
this is difficult to explain
it isn’t like transactional analysis — It doesn’t feel like a “parent” or “adult”
but something wise and powerful
I am mentioning it because I know others feel this
I believe that our culture programmes us to feel powerless –
But won’t go off on a tangent about this
There is so much available on magic and spells these days:
My favourite is Marion Weinstein’s “Positive Magic”
And the following is a quote from Doreen Valiente’s “Natural Magic”:
“Believe in the possibility of what you intend to do, hold it strongly in your mind, and it will happen.”
A spell from my very old book of shadows.
When I collect the leaves from the Bay Laurel I thank both the tree and the leaves. I may seem weird to others but I don’t care.
Bay Leaf Spell
Prepare a container with live coals or charcoal blocks:
Scatter crumbled bay leaves over them:
concentrate on the wish you are making:
Chant:
“Bay leaf burn fire
Draw to me my heart’s desire.”
Speak of your wish aloud:
And repeat the ritual thrice.
**************
Blessed be
and be kind to non- human life forms.

AHIMSA – In a culture that believes only humans matter
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
I fed the local birds for 25 years when i lived at Goolwa –not accptable now that I am in a retiement village
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 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
Kill snail s —-I was upset this morning by a post about killing snails
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
VEGAN
I am so happy to know that so many humans care about other life forms
I have stopped watching television but if I chromecast from same I see ads re eating parts of the corpses of animals that have been factory farmed and production line slaughtered or creatures that have been boiled alive
(I also object to using insect spray – so don’t like these ads either)
I have been vegetarian since the 1970s and when I was younger used to cook meat for my family but this century I have refused to cook meat
I found this picture years ago but do not know who to give the credit to.
In South Australia in the 1970’s and 80’s vegetarians and vegans were not catered for.
There was a cafe on the corner of Hindmarsh Square and Rundle Street Adelaide, called “Carrots” :
one restaurant that catered for vegans
and a Lebanese restaurant that offered a vegetarian platter.
The only vegetarian food one could buy was by Sanitarium
which was, and am guessing still is, owned by the Seventh-day Adventist church.
(And very much appreciated — Thank you Seventh Day Adventists)
We were ridiculed and abused by those in pubs, restaurants and people generally.
I made my own burghers using lentils, vegetable and bread crumbs and at a surprise birthday party for my (now ex) husband all the carnivores were eating these:
not realizing they had no meat.
I didn’t insist my family were vegetarian
I would make a vegetarian dish to share
and also cook meat.
If I ate meat I would have night mares about being an animal in a slaughter house.
I object to factory farming and production line slaughter.
Of course the reason the setup is this way is there are way to many humans.
I didn’t want to eat meat as a child:
for refusing I received a bashing from my mother:
she threatened to have me put in a mental institution
and served me the same meal for breakfast lunch and tea until I ate it.
I have allowed myself to eat meat on a few occasions over the years usually because I was anaemic
The night mares return plus my digestive system doesn’t handle meat.
In this day and age when there are so many vegans, I never expected to be ridiculed but it has happened on several occasions.
I complimented one woman on having soy milk in her coffee and she abused the hell out of me:
Said that she wasn’t vegan (which according to her is worse than leprosy ) she had soy milk because she liked it.
It is important to me that I am always honest so I must confess that sadly I have only been a part time vegan— but still vegetarian:
Hoping this time around I will stay vegan.
If I ate eggs I bought those produced locally as I have been to the farm where the chickens are and I would live where they live 😀
I cannot watch cooking shows:
Haven’t cooked meat for anyone since 1998
I am horrified that people think eating creature that is boiled alive is a treat.
A friend asked me why vegans avoid dairy :
I explained that the cows are kept continually pregnant:
the calves go to slaughter and their mothers know.
In my opinion the drug companies are worse than the meat industry.
In 1982 the husband of one of my staff asked me to report that suckie calves were left to die of dehydration & starvation.
I was told by someone who bought stock that
all new borns are just left to die that way.
In 1982 I reported what was told to me to the RSPCA who called me a liar and a trouble maker.
I put something inwriting but it was ignored.
Animal Liberation told me to write to my politician.
Nothing.
Years later an acquaintance who had worked in the abattoirs told me that the drug companies ask for this.
And my podiatrist (an animal activist) told me that the drug companies collect hormones from this type of death.
People just don’t want to know.
SAW THIS ON FACEBOOK — THIS IS ALSO MY OPINION
Namaste
and be kind to non humans
In the following book I hope to help those who wish to develop their clairvoyant abilities.

Yule
This information is just to inform not undermine your spiritual beliefs :
Christmas was originally the pagan festival of Yule — Mid Winter — moved a few days: Every church festival was originally a pagan festival. The church of Rome incorporated them because they couldn’t get rid of same.
After the emperor Constantine made Christianity the religion of Rome there was a meeting at Niacea to decide what to put in the New Testament and what to leave out..
With a huge empire it was easier to control the masses with a religion. Hence the Inquisition to get rid of the Old Religion and the women healers who had– herbal remedies: contraception and abortion and replace the with men who used leeches and blood-letting: Couldn’t have contraception if you wanted to populate armies.
The Wheel of the Year is from my Book of Shadows:
Have a Merry Christmas: Blessed Yule: or Blessed Litha (Summer Solstice)
AND BE BLESSED
LIFE AFTER DEATH
Wrote this hoping people would question the nature of reality
HONESTY IS IMPORTANT TO ME — THIS IS A TRUE STORY
I dont know the meaning of life:
nor understand the nature of reality:
I do know physical death is not the end.
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)
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.
This would explain why people not in linear time are out of phase
Any clairvoyant will tell you that images and words flash in a fraction of a second
We may all be in a huge holodeck:
As suggested by Star Trek Next Generation —
And “What The Bleep”
“Ship In A Bottle” season six — Star Trek Next Geneeration
In the “special features” of What the “Bleep” they mention that Professor WilliamTiller gives the mathematical constructs of a hologram that we “are” living in.
(William A. Tiller is a professor emeritus of materials science and engineering at Stanford University)
Until the following I suspected clairvoyance was wishful thinking and vivid imagination
The incident that convinced me that clairvoyance was a reality happened at work. I was a student nurse at Strathmont Centre. I was washing dishes with a male staff nurse. We didn’t have kitchen hands in those days. Kym was six feet tall and rather heavy set and had long blonde hair. A man (deceased) flashed in (when I see or hear things they flash in a fraction of a second) He had Kym’s high forehead and similar features but wore a suit with a crepe ribbon and a cross and had a short back and sides haircut and dark hair.
I asked Kym if his father was a minister. He asked me why and initially I would not answer. I eventually told him what I saw and Kym told me that it was his uncle. He asked me what denomination his uncle was.
I did not know.
After Kym left the kitchen I asked his uncle, whom I could no longer “see”, what he had died of. The words were that fast all I could make out was sclerosis. Because we were with the intellectually disabled I thought “tubular sclerosis?” Then I realized it was multiple sclerosis.
When we were having a tea break Kym told me that his uncle died of multiple sclerosis. I was amazed and said that his uncle had “told” me this!
Kym said “Get more”! I informed him that I couldn’t.
But I saw panama hats and monkeys. I said “He was a missionary in South America” Kym said “Yes”. I then saw masks and a jungle and said he was also a missionary in New Guinea. Kym told me this wasn’t so. When Kym came to work the next day, he said that his mother had confirmed that her brother was a missionary in New Guinea. This showed that I wasn’t just reading Kim’s mind.
AHIMSA
I didn’t write this to brag about my clairvoyant abilities or to make money (coz it doesn’t anyway)
Everyone is clairvoyant — the ability atrophies because or culture tells us that it doesn’t exist – I was fortunate enough that my Dad was a Spiritualist — although he didn’t tell me until I was 29
The clairvoyant Experiences of a Sceptic is not a literary masterpiece

WICCA
MISCONCEPTIONS
I realize some people still equate witches with evil people who sacrifice animals.
Not us!
I moved to a retirement village at the end of April 2023 – I have only told one person in the village that I am a witch and a clairvoyant –this age group definitely think witches are evil –am wearing my pentagram today no one has noticed
Me when I was teaching “would be witches” in 2001
This is the first page of my Book of Shadows started in 1983
“Eight words the Wiccan Rede fulfil
An it harm NONE
Do what thou will”
The concept that witches were evil began at the inquisition when the Church of Rome was trying to get rid of the Old Religion and the women herbalists.
The Satanists, who we are sometimes equated with, got their ideas from Malleus Maleficarum,
which is about how to torture people to get them to say they worship the devil and not about witchcraft as it says if you Google!
Our rituals are similar to American Indian rituals –at least the one I am aware of, which is Sioux tradition.
After telling a friend that I used to lecture on Wicca in the 1980s and early 1990s –
I told her that in the 1990s when it was becoming popular it attracted a lot of people to training courses
Her reply was “you must have made a lot of money“
WE DID NOT CHARGE
Neophytes were asked to donate for candles and incense.
Back to witches not being evil.
I will not kill anything — Not spiders: mice: insects: trees –
I believe everything that exists has consciousness and deserves respect.
I have cried on many occasions because I haven’t been able to save a bird: animal or reptile that had been hit by a car – at least I move them off the road so that they are not continuously run over.
I get upset when moths throw themselves at the window to get to the light.
This doesn’t mean there are not people out there calling themselves witches and killing animals.
Male witches are called witches,
so if someone claims to be a warlock be suspicious.
***
The following words had different meanings once:
Wicca meant wise or to bend
Heathen = dweller on the heath
Pagan = village dweller
Weird = magic
Sinister = left-handed
***
Blessed be
and be kind to non humans
I should have called this book LIFE AFTER DEATH as my experiences convinced me that this life isn’t all that there is – mind you the last time I posted a blog with this title it only got 2 likes – guess I am threatening the status quo
The clairvoyant Experiences of a Sceptic is not a literary masterpiece

MID WINTER
It is Mid Summer here = Litha
and Mid Winter – Yule in the northern hemisphere.
The Wheel Of The Year: pagan festivals celebrating the seasons:
solstices and equinoxes.
When the Romans and Christianity took over they could not get rid of these festivals:
So every church festival was originally a pagan one.
FYI – pagan means village dweller.
Wicca means wise –or to bend
Heathen means dweller on the heath.
The concept that we are evil came from the “Inquisition”:
(This is where the Satanists got there ideas — so if you are interested in Wicca trust your gut)
Our rituals are similar to American Indian rituals:
Or at least the one I was involved in which was Sioux tradition.
We dance and chant to raise power.
NO SACRIFICES
Anyone who has read my other blogs will know that I will literally not harm a fly
or any other creature
Blessed Yule
to those in the northern hemisphere
Blessed Litha
to those “down under”

Seeing James Cromwell on “Sunrise” —morning television –

The night mares return plus my digestive system doesn’t handle meat.
In this day and age when there are so many vegans, I never expected to be ridiculed but it has happened on several occasions.
I complimented one woman on having soy milk in her coffee and she abused the hell out of me:
Said that she wasn’t vegan (which according to her is worse than leprosy ) she had soy milk because she liked it.
It is important to me that I am always honest so I must confess that sadly I have only been a part time vegan— but still vegetarian:
Hoping this time around I will stay vegan.
If I ate eggs I bought those produced locally as I have been to the farm where the chickens are and I would live where they live 😀
I cannot watch cooking shows:
Haven’t cooked meat for anyone since 1998
I am horrified that people think eating creature that is boiled alive is a treat.
A friend asked me why vegans avoid dairy :
I explained that the cows are kept continually pregnant:
the calves go to slaughter and their mothers know.
In my opinion the drug companies are worse than the meat industry.
In 1982 the husband of one of my staff asked me to report that suckie calves were left to die of dehydration & starvation.
I was told by someone who bought stock that
all new borns are just left to die that way.
In 1982 I reported what was told to me to the RSPCA who called me a liar and a trouble maker.
I put something inwriting but it was ignored.
Animal Liberation told me to write to my politician.
Nothing.
Years later an acquaintance who had worked in the abattoirs told me that the drug companies ask for this.
And my podiatrist (an animal activist) told me that the drug companies collect hormones from this type of death.
People just don’t want to know.
SAW THIS ON FACEBOOK — THIS IS ALSO MY OPINION
Namaste
and be kind to non humans
In the following book I hope to help those who wish to develop their clairvoyant abilities.
In “The Clairvoyant Experiences Of A Sceptic” I told a few of my clairvoyant experiences.
Listening to others similar stories made me realize that
it is so much better if you can have these experiences first hand.
Kung fu tz (Confucius) say “Perseverance prospers”
So don’t give up – you will succeed
And use the recorded meditations in my blog
The clairvoyant Experiences of a Sceptic is not a literary masterpiece
but a true story. I majored in sociology not literature
I dont 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)
A SHORT STORY ABOUT HEALING THE BLUE PLANET
I wrote and published this sci fi short story a few years ago (under the above title) when the human population was only 7.4 billion:
(1st published 4th April 2017)
It is now 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 realize my writing style doesn’t fit what people expect
My excuse –I majored in sociology not literature 😛
I wanted to put my idea that humans are not indigenous to the planet
A few lines from this short story:
“Most humans think that those who live in harmony with the environment are primitive and inferior. Actually they don’t think.
They just mindlessly conform to what those in power and their entertainment media tell them.
They are really stupid but consider themselves superior to all other life forms because they talk:
They think if something or someone doesn’t talk they don’t understand.
They thoughtlessly destroy everything. They call some creatures vermin, when humans are the vermin. They kill insects and destroy all the trees despite the fact that insects and trees are essential.
And everything literally goes down the drain polluting the oceans instead of nourishing other life.”
