It's piling up....

by tylluanpenry @ Tuesday, 14. Apr, 2009 – 19:46:47

Today I took down my Easter/Ostara/Spring Equinox decorations before they all grew a fur coat. But that was the limit of my housework, really. The trouble is that the work is piling up....

I have some illustrations to finish (which is going to be fun seeing as my vision is still very dodgy)

I have to write a talk for Witchfest England in May. I have to write another talk for The Hay Alternative Festival (also in May).

I have an essay to write.

I have another book to write.

I have a hex to perform....

The dogs are hungry.... (aren't they always?)

I seem to have some strange allergy/rash. This is driving me up the wall at the moment although I suspect it may be related to all the other symptoms...

And to top it all, while I am trying to type this, it's like an old fashioned teleprinter going as a snail's pace.

Grrrr!!

A hex to perform

  Oh yes.... this one's been mulling around for about four months now.

      No, nobody you know, that's for sure. It's just one of those situations where a serious crime was committed and nothing is going to get done about it.... hence the wait of several months.
      
      Now it's my turn....

Who or what are you thinking of hexing?

Someone tried that trick on me once, however, as I had no idea what a hex was, it all passed over my head.

Other people around me who did know what a hex was, were deeply disturbed, while I remained oblivious.

Tylluan, you can only do what you can do, if you can't meet some of the demands on your list, you will have say so.

  I don't believe there is a hexer on this planet who would be able to touch you, Menhir
  
  I have managed to get through some of the stuff on my list, my vision is definitely a bit better today and I am making the most of it.
  
  I realise that one of the problems with lists is that some tasks never finish... e.g. I finish one book, I start another....

    I thank you for your confidence in my powers of resistance.
    
    I am so pleased to hear you have managed to release a little pressure. Contain the rest!

I know that feeling. I've only been ill for the weekend. You have been having this issue with the eyes for a while. It piles up fast and then gives you that overwhelming feeling. Just do what you can do as Menhir says.

you can only do so much while you're below par, trying to rush things can only make it worse x

  You're quite right of course, and I've been trying to take it easy... but there comes a point where I know I have to start trying to ease myself back into life again so I'm going to give it my best shot and see how it goes. I do thank you for your concern though

  'Make haste slowly' - bless you Mira, that's a great saying! I shall write it out and put it up above my desk....

Modern technology hun!

Sounds like you have a long list of things to do and a short time to do them in. Why is it never the other way around? One of life's mysteries

Maybe I'll research into it, when I get time that is!

At first I thought it said ' I have sex to perform ' .
But a 'hex' ? Are you 'playing God' then ?
And , ' a serious crime ' . . .
Are you Judge and Jury , then ? . .
Sorry , I've always thought of you as a warmhearted nice lady , and , oh yes , I admit that if I knew how to 'perform a hex' on selected individuals and believed it would work I would have done so at least once or twice in my life already !
The intention of it does sound sinsister though .
Hmmmmmm . . .
Anyway , I hope that you're ok and that Mr . P has recovered from his confusing morning !

It's not a sinister intention at all, Martin (and thanks for thinking of me as a warmhearted nice lady, by the way! This is a difficult situation, but the individual in question has indeed done something really horrible (not to mention criminal) and is going to get away with it.

As for playing God, well, firstly, I'm a pagan, and my gods don't have any problem with me pursuing my own vengeance. Secondly, the problem I have with leaving vengeance to the Christian God is that it still seems to require a human agency.

I've left the situation several months so that I'm not acting in haste or in anger. I've weighed up the situation, I've thought it through, I'm in the process of writing out my hex so that it is unambiguous.... and when the time comes, I won't have the slightest hesitation in performing it.

It doesn't change who or what I am in any way. I would no more perform a random hex on someone than I would go up to them and start swearing at them. I far prefer healing spells and kindness to the dark world of hexing.

But sometimes - alas - life doesn't give you that choice. Not to act (and thereby allow this individual to go on committing more crimes) is, IMHO a far greater harm than trying to put a stop to it now!

I'm feeling quite a bit better today, Martin, thaks for asking! And Mr Penry is still chuckling about yesterday!

In that case I suppose I should wish you luck !
I'm not sure if I beleieve in such things , and in such situations I tend to think such as that many people felt an intense loathing for Margaret Thatcher , some still do , but no one succeeded in 'hexing' her !
Anyway , all the best , and it's good to know that you're feeling better ,

  I've just read this :
  
  http://www.geocities.com/magickwithin/hexing.htm
  
  And , whether it's likely to work or not it's undoubtedly sinister .
  
  And some 'witches' complain that some people seem to want to keep away from them !
  I know it would normally only be carried out rarely , after much consideration and in full possession of all the facts , but if one believes that some people have such an ability then that is scary .
  If for example you were thinking of a known abuser of children , it might be better to get a group of local men to visit him to warn him of what they will do to him if he tries it again with any child .
  But , whatever , it sounds like a nasty problem which I hope can be resolved one way or another ,

    Interesting article, Martin, thanks for the link. The thing is that this article writes mainly from the Wiccan point of view (and yes, you've guessed, I'm not a wiccan!)
    
    As you say, it's a very nasty problem, but one that I feel must be dealt with.

"I have some illustrations to finish (which is going to be fun seeing as my vision is still very dodgy)"

Could end up in the Tate modern and make you very very rich :-)

Hope your vision is better soon

Hugs
