ok so I've been doing some reading up about the pagan and druid history and found a few interesting things!
so far I've learned the alternative names for the days of the week, although I can never remember the name for wednesday!
monday: the Moon's day
tuesday: Mercury's day
wednesday: (dont remember! but I do know it begins with M)
thursday: Thor's day
friday: freya's day
saturday: Saturn's days
sunday: the Sun's day
and the Moon's full cycle takes 28 days!
Lara
very interesting reading especially at bed time!
Lara
oh yeh! learning lots of other stuff too!
like metals, their meanings, qualities and uses
gemstones, "
flowers, "
and stuff like the best times to meditate and to do candle mass, etc!
Corran
Have you read about moodstones and the meanings of the different colours yet?
Lara
moon stones yes! moodstones not yet although Blue means your tranquil and calm
Corran
Blue, I was told, meant Happy, mine is nearly always blue.
Lara
thats the thing with moodstones they nearlly always stay on blue, I think they're heat sensitive!
finti
wednesday can be midweek
Lara

wednesday is Woden's day (Woden otherwise known as Odin)
Ushgarak
Got your 'M' upside down...
Lara
well! never mind we all make mistakes!
Ushgarak
Yeah, but I bow down before your mastery in them...
Ushgarak
Just take my praise like a good girl, Lara...
Lara
are you praising me for my bad spelling? in a shorter phrase: are you mocking me?
Ushgarak
First, no. Second, yes.
Ushgarak
Awww, I'm sorry... you love the attention really...
Lara
I assure you that I do not!
Ushgarak
Shall I leave you alone forever then?
Corran
Ush, she does really, she is just playing hard to get.
finti
take a few pints in the bar then
Gundark
Gee, I thought Thursday was Whiskey Thursday....
Corran
Yes, but that's the more modern version.
Lara
I dont like being cornered, I tend to do things out of character and completely savage!
Lara
apparently the full moon is the best time for meditation and astral travel/ projection!
Corran
Yes I heard that too.
Lara
whats that about finti?
Lara
oh! right! ok then!
Lara
anyone got any interesting info on this subject?

The Besom, Other wise known as a broom.
it was traditionally hand made from willow of hazel wood, depending on what was freely available at the time. Not only was it a domestic cleaning tool but it was symbolic as well.
as sweeping out the dirt you would effectively sweep out all the negative energy that had bulit up in that room or property. the sweeping is usually done from east to west.
I think that it was thought, that as you sweep out the negative energy it would be caught with the rising sun and then it be diminished but the sun when it set in the envening. I dunno, thats just my theory.
