PathWalkers.Net Interactive :: Helping you along your path General information: Four Elements Medicine Wheel Prayer Posted by: Nyxks on Monday, February 07, 2005 - 05:07 PM Four Elements Medicine Wheel Prayer Adapted from Green Psychology, by Ralph Metzner, Ph.D. (Park Street Press, 1999). Elders, healers, and teachers of the ancient Earth Wisdom traditions align themselves with natural forces to cultivate a balanced attitude and relationship with the environment. Simple Solution: A sense of well-being and feeling at home in the world from periodic prayer rituals provide attunement and harmonizing with the elemental energies. Native Americans speak of the resulting feeling as “walking in balance on Earth.” (80 Reads) Read more... (3259 bytes more) comments?

A History of Witches<br />

Most people now days think of witches as green, wart-covered hags with a<br />

black cat and a flying broom stick. But the true history of the witches is a<br />

gruesome and bloody one. Persecuted by religious fanatics, frightened and<br />

scared peasants and clergy, and falsely accused by children striking back at<br />

their strict elders. Before the worship of male dominated religions and monotheistic<br />

religions, there was one called The Old Religion. When Christianity was thought up,<br />

many attempts were made to convert to the "new" religion.<br />

The popes at the time built their churches on the site of the old temples to discourage the<br />

old worship and encourage the new. They called the old worshipers "pagans" and<br />

"heathens" which was somewhat accurate since pagan means people who live in the<br />

country and heathen means one who dwells on the heath.<br />

You probably have some spirits around your place.<br />

Contrary to many literary and Hollywood stories, having spirits in your home is not<br />

around Samhain. They can be elementals, element energy, totem animals, spirits of the<br />
