sunday 6 december 2009 the montreal massacre twenty years ago today although it seems to me like it only happened recently 20 years have now in fact passed since december 6 1989 when a crazed anti feminist gunman killed 14 young women at l ecole polytechnique de montreal i remember how in the aftermath of that murderous rampage many women across canada wore red buttons emblazoned with a single word feminist to show that the movement for women s equality cannot be stopped by fear or intimidation in the early years the annual december 6th vigils focused exclusively on the women of the montreal massacre but eventually the vigils became a broader forum for remembering all women who suffer violence or death due to gender in canada december 6 is now the national day of remembrance and

me i m not the most dedicated sports fan in the great white north but i have watched every grey cup game since i was a little girl probably at least cough 45 cough games by now hey i personally remember watching the mud bowl the fog bowl and the snow bowl too i know the cfl rules and i actually do understand the down system thanks to my mom who taught me so sunday was the 2009 big game which was held in calgary as a loyal westerner i was of course cheering for the saskatchewan roughriders they started off strong and led in the first half but the montreal alouettes fought back with about 10 seconds left in the game it was saskatchewan 27 and montreal 25 then saskatchewan was assessed a 10 yard penalty for inadvertently having an extra player on the field and that put montreal close enough to score a field goal montreal 28 saskatchewan 27 so poor saskatchewan snatched defeat from the jaws of victory as they say and montreal stole the grey cup away from the west oh the pain of it all but just wait until next year the west shall rise again posted by debra she who seeks at 05 59 7 comments labels sports tuesday 1 december 2009 i m baaaaack well i m breathing easier now my

18 november 2009 christmas madness the last two weeks of november and the first week of december are always the busiest time of the entire year for me the reason is simple christmas these three weeks are when my holiday preparations come to a head shopping wrapping getting cards ready to send mailing packages decorating i like to have everything done by early december so i can relax and enjoy all the holiday parties concerts and general socializing that fill the rest of the month because i work full time scheduling everything that needs to be done for christmas can be quite a challenge so alas i will probably not be doing much if any blogging between now and early december but fear not i ll be back although probably trailing wrapping paper scotch tape and a big tangled ball of mini lights

pilgrims gather sacred spring water to take home and for that purpose chalice garden sells plastic souvenir bottles when i went to buy one the saleslady took note of my foreign accent deduced that i would be flying home not driving and told me that i d never get my water home in one of their bottles because of airport security the bottle would have to go in my checked luggage and the bottle tops were simply not watertight the sacred water would all leak out during the flight she said so off i went to the glastonbury shops where i found a metal glogg water bottle with a good waterproof screw on top on the mystical morning of 09 09 09 i filled it full of sacred water and screwed the top on tight for good measure i put it inside a big zip lock freezer bag along with a couple of the small empty chalice well plastic bottles i m pleased to report that the water made it back to edmonton safe and sound once home i decanted it from the glogg bottle into the more decorative souvenir bottles at the october meeting of the women s drumming and goddess chanting circle we celebrated the goddess of avalon and had a special blessing with the chalice well water each woman received a tiny half ounce plastic champagne flute as a holy grail stand in i poured sacred water into each flute from the chalice well bottle then we each thought of something in our life that needs healing whether it be physical mental emotional spiritual or financial i recited the following blessing daughters of the goddess may you be blessed and healed by this sacred water from goddess s holy chalice well in avalon

monday 16 november 2009 the lion s head the lion s head is where one may drink from the red spring in chalice well garden it is essentially a spout which pours a steady stream of water over a couple of millstones in a small pool note the heavy iron oxide build up a reminder not to drink too much of this sacred water our priestess and tour leader mara freeman led us in a beautiful ceremony at the lion s head each of us filled a pewter chalice to the brim with sacred water thought of what we wanted to release from our lives and then poured the water back into the pool filling the chalice again we thought of what we wanted the goddess to bring into our lives and then we drank that water be it so near the end of our stay at chalice garden the lion s head acquired a stick on diamond bindi on his third eye chakra see it in the above photo i suspect it was a gift from a hippy family that was in the garden the previous afternoon i thought it was a wonderful way to honour the guardian of the

waters of the red spring is the healing waterfall it is located in a walled bower of trees and ferns a shady and peaceful spot the spring water splashes down a red brick waterfall surrounded by slate rocks people often leave small offerings to the goddess here a votive candle a small apple a stone a feather or two ribbons are tied to the surrounding tree branches the water then flows through a narrow channel to the healing pool a small rectangular pool of shallow water people may wade there holding on to the handrail and others hands walking carefully because the bottom is slippery with iron oxide build up the healing pool gets power washed on a regular basis too one afternoon while i was meditating in chalice garden a large group of christian pilgrims held a ceremony at the healing waterfall they were celebrating the virgin mary reciting prayers and singing hymns in honour of the mother of god the red spring is always sacred to the divine feminine no matter which form she may
