The Garden of Your Birth

Ushered into life – by hands of the Departed,
Within the hallowed garden – of graves and yellow roses,
The ancestral spirits testify – to the glory of her grace;
And she of seven sisters – taught the hidden ways,
To weave the bones – and to conjure from the grave,
Guided by a phantom – and a man of 77 years;
Crossed in jealousy – it is she who turned the trident
And cast it back unto her blood – sour and spoiled
Harbinger of justice – her lessons are amoral;
Lady of the Boneyard,
Lady of the Souls,
I thank you.

I haven’t had the opportunity to set all my stuff up, yet, so I constructed this mini-space in the solarium.

The Left-Hand Serpent

Drawn on the top of the left hand (oriented trident-to-fingertips)  – used to better collect low-vibration energy, which can the be directed with the right hand in workings dealing with the material world, or the lower manifestations. Also good for luck in gambling.

Apparently my friend and I will be attending the grand opening of the new medical marijuana distributor in town – which is the only time it will be opened to the public.

But I’m not about to forget all those in prison for something they can now sell in a boutique…
