Oct. 22nd, 2004 06:09 pmSamhain is in the air. It's been gray and damp all week, with a chill in the air. I'll admit that I've had so much distraction and drama in the last two months that I've had very little patience or time for spiritual pursuits. I have many books on my shelves that I have yet to read through, and many old favorites to re-read. And of course, I have to watch Sleepy Hollow-- it's one of my seasonal favorites. I wonder if I can find The Wicker Man anywhere nearby-- I've never seen it.
My school readings have been heavy this semester, very difficult to keep up with. I can't imagine trying to read a Faulkner book and a novel for Psyche's class every two weeks and still have time for leisure reading. I almost can't wait until Thanksgiving break-- turkey and hot tea and a cozy blanket. I like when the house is quiet and I can read by lamplight all night long. Of course, the feuding siblings can be a bit of a challenge in the morning.
I'm still trying to figure out my Samhain plans. I'm going to a Halloween-themed wedding on the 29th, and I'm performing the 30th. The 31st is in the clear, so I may go to Toni's if she has something small, or I may stay in with a book and do my own small ritual. I've got a Samhain meditation taking shape in my brain-- now I just need some peace and quiet to practice it-- peace is so hard to find on a college campus.
Mmm. I have some Pumpkin Spice tea I need to be getting at. :)
Oh, and today I hit an F# before Kyle stopped me. A new high!
