		<title>Rose’s Friday Rant: Working with Jupiter&#8217;s Energy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Dear Friends,
Jupiter has incredibly expansive and beneficial energy that many people are drawn to, and with good reason. Among other things, Jupiter is the planet of luck and prosperity. It&#8217;s as big and expansive as it&#8217;s actual physical size. When you think Jupiter, think big and bold! It&#8217;s no wonder that working with Jupiter is [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rose’s Friday Rant: Working with the Energy of Mars</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Dear Friends,
Mars is a tough planet to get along with sometimes. It (and the Roman God it is named after) have typically been associated with war, anger and strife. However, it&#8217;s much more than that. Just as people have different sides to them, so does Mars. It&#8217;s the opposite of Venus, so the lovey-dovey peaceful [...]]]></description>

		<title>Honoring Venus</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Dear Friends,
I hope you&#8217;ve been enjoying this series of planets so far. When I first started to walk this path, I didn&#8217;t understand the powerful connection between astrology and paganism. When you think about it, though, it makes a of sense. As followers of nature, we pagans center our belief system on the elements and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Honoring Mercury</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Dear Friends,
Mercury is the planet closest to the Sun and it&#8217;s swiftness and speed are represented in the magick that it rules over. It&#8217;s the planet of technology, travel and mental activities. We honor Mercury each day when we hop into our car and speed down the freeway, when we participate in a friendly debate [...]]]></description>

		<title>Honoring The Moon</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Moon is regarded as the most important heavenly body in magick. This is because over hundreds of years witches have developed a special relationship with the moon. Witchcraft had to be hidden because of persecution, so it was done under the cover of darkness. The moon was the largest body in the sky and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Honoring The Sun</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Dear Friends,
Over the next several posts, I want to take time to look at each of the heavenly bodies and ways that you can bring a little astrological knowledge into your magickal practice. Although I know many astrologers who want nothing to do with paganism, and many pagans who don&#8217;t delve into astrology, I believe [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dealing with Coven Growing Pains</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Dear Friends,
Joining with others in your pagan practice is an important step in your spiritual practice. Group work in a coven isn&#8217;t for everyone, but if you crave some connection with local witches you should know that coven work isn&#8217;t without it&#8217;s drama and difficulties. Anytime you get a group of people together, even if [...]]]></description>

		<title>Honor The Deities in Balance</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Dear Friends,
Nothing bothers me more than seeing a witch, new or old, forget half of the deity coupling. What I&#8217;m referring here to in the honoring of the God or the Goddess, without reverence or acknowledgment of the other. A lot of people make this mistake when they first come into this path, and I&#8217;m [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rose&#8217;s Friday Rant: Spells to Use During Times of Stress</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Dear Friends,
As much as I would love for the God and Goddess to grant me days of everlasting peace, every once in a while I encounter a period of overwhelming stress. I&#8217;m sure you experience the same. Whether it&#8217;s conflict in personal relationships, legal matters, money troubles or health issues, stress effects us all. The [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rose&#8217;s Friday Rant: Sunday Church For Pagans?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Dear Friends,
The monthly full moons or Esbats are the closest that we Pagans have to the Sunday church services of the Christians. The 13 full moons of the year are honored by rituals that are tuned to the specific qualities of the full moon.  While the Sabbats celebrate the path of the Sun throughout [...]]]></description>
