about me
I have been described as fun, funny, warm, sweet, absolutely outspoken, outrageous, and earthy. I am a grounding and dead-on insightful listener and advice-giver; soft and compassionate... and a silly and sarcastic creator of all things trouble.

Born Jewish, love the Jews! I find comfort in the heritage, the relationships, and some tradition. I am a Wiccan/Pagan. I am working hard on deciphering and expanding upon...me. And expanding my methods; more yoga and its teachings, shamanic journeying. There is magic in and around us and I want in.

I love theater, and music, and movies, and yoga, and philosophies, and cooking. I love talking, unraveling, debating, expanding. Laughing my face off. I really, really love being with people; family and friends.

I am a professional voiceover artist, I sing and play guitar for caffeinated listeners, and I write (I have two blogs). I have a one-woman-show in development... once I write it. Oh, and the gays just love me. And it's mutual.

I like glitter. And cous-cous.

Re: ~~~Spiritual MInds NY August Beach Gathering~~~ (in NYC people) Good point... is this an actual event? If so, they would need a permit.

And don't get me wrong, I hate that pulsey stuff. But it is being uses a lot... COSM events use it, and people really groove. I can't stand it, and it harshes my happy.

Re: ~~~Spiritual MInds NY August Beach Gathering~~~ (in NYC people) I'm sorry... I am laughing. I thought Dave's response WAS a little harsh, and I know plenty of people, some of them actual grown-ups, who do get into that trance-dance stuff and find it sort of spiritually transportive (or something that's a word)... read more

Re: witch school? (in Wicca) To me, one of the essences of wicca is the intimate, private work in small circles, and the personal passing on of knowledge; relationship with a priestess in perfect love and perfect trust.

I know there are plenty of solo practitioners out th... read more

My Blog

This is one of those situations where ignorance and moral superiority (and meanness) all come together for the good of the people. Which people? Exactly.

She's not hurting anyone. She's not using words that have any real meaning or power. What she IS doing is giving real wiccans and pagans and druids (oh my!) an opportunity to rebut, and have our moment to step up to the microphone and explain, rationally, who we are and why it's backwards thinking to put us down.

Ultimately, there is ... read more

The surgery went perfectly. Faster than we were led to believe, and with no complications of any kind. Orien Rose's skull and brow are fully intact; there is nothing to do inside her head now. There was very little bleeding, so healing should be quick and the hospital stay should be short. She's asleep now. Orien and Christine are amazing; full of gratitude and happiness.

The full story is here: orienrose.blogspot.com/

There was a problem with the Moonfinder blog; Christine is ... read more

Orien Rose is a miracle. She is a nine year old girl who, just over a year ago, was in a horrific boating accident. There was skull, facial, and brain injury. Really bad stuff. Tuesday morning, June 24th, she is having surgery, and we are looking for as many people on this earth as possible to simply think of her, and send positive energy.

You should see her now; have a look at this article (www.recordonline.com/apps/pb.../article from the ot... read more

So this year I am not going to Free Spirit Gathering. I just wasn't feeling it, wasn't able to decide, had (valid) trepidations, have been broke, (and didn't want to work security like I have the last two years), and so I wrote it off.

(That was the Out of Touch section of this post.)

Only now I totally want to go.

There is a burst of heat (literally, with the 90 plus degrees of stickiness) which allows me to feel, viscerally, what Free Spirit feels like, and I'm way connected with ... read more
