Confidence Kept or Harmful Secret? - Opinion

 Just a little ramble that entered my head.



Just what is the difference between keeping confidence or keeping a harmful secret? My opinion is in the words themselves. A secret is bad when it causes harm. However different people have different concepts on what is harmful, which causes no end of confusion.


All I can do is share my go by.
If it is not my story it is not mine to share

Magic Mushrooms - a closer look

Image
Magic Mushrooms Magic mushrooms are wild or cultivated mushrooms that contain psilocybin, a naturally-occurring psychoactive and hallucinogenic compound. Psilocybin is considered one of the most well-known psychedelics, according to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administrations. Psilocybin is classified as a Schedule I drug, meaning that has a high potential for misuse and has no currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States. [1] What is the Schedule Drugs thing? Drugs, substances, and certain chemicals used to make drugs are classified into five (5) distinct categories or schedules depending upon the drug’s acceptable medical use and the drug’s abuse or dependency potential. The abuse rate is a determinate factor in the scheduling of the drug; for example, Schedule I drugs have a high potential for abuse and the potential to create severe psychological and/or physical dependence. As the drug schedule changes-- Schedule II, Schedule III, etc...

Living the Wheel of the Year - Building Community and Family

While at Florida Pagan Gathering for their Samhain celebration at Maddox Ranch I hit upon a topic that I don't really hear spoken about much, but is really critical for building community and ultimately for creating your own "chosen family". We, as in all Pagans etc., talk about and worship the Wheel of the Year, but how many actually apply this to their lives? There are many of us who fall into the Spring and Summer only people category. As in we are only there when things are new, the work easy, and food/reward plentiful. The trick is to also be or find the people who are there for the Autumn and Winter parts of life. When there is a lot of work and times are hard. I get it. It is very difficult to be there for people when they need a lot of work or when they are going through hard times. It is also the responsibility of the person experiencing the Autumn or Winter to appropriately use the resources others can give and not expect them to cause an Autumn or Winter...

Intoxicants & Altered States of Consciousness

Control is important where an ASC is entered from another ASC. Path-working, visualization and scrying is often more intense, more meaningful, if done in circle. This is because when you start to do the path-working or whatever from a mild ASC instead of your own normal waking state, you tend to go further or deeper, and thus gain more from the exercise. [1] However, using drugs to enter an ASC before performing ritual is a completely different matter. Drugs leave you with no control over the first ASC you enter, so the outcome of entering a second one can be quite different from what you expected. The harder the drug, the bigger the problem is likely to be. A drug might, on a rare occasion, have a place in ritual, but only when the effect of the drug on the person taking it is known, there is a very good reason for its use, and someone else is available to deal with any problems that might arise. Drugs also sap the magical will and discipline by preventing you from learning how t...
