Fresh from getting the power back on after the “November Nor’easter” Foxfire has a number of things on his mind about how spoiled we are as modern Pagans and civilized folk in general. Having the power go out made him want to communicate some ideas to the kids and they just felt so right that he had to get them on the show as well. Our ancestors were an amazing bunch.

  Also on this episode, since we were in the groove, we read parts of an e-mail sent to us by Fire Lyte of the “Inciting a Riot” blog and podcast. The e-mail asked specific questions about our parenting styles as they relate directly to our Paganism. We’ve been wanting to do this for some time now but as some of you know it’s been one thing after another here at the PPOTE household lately.

  Just my talking about Fire Lyte’s blog and podcast, “Inciting a Riot” is as close as we get to a podcast of the week segment this week as it was reeaaalllyyyyy late by the time we got near the end of the show. But don’t let that throw you. Fire Lyte’s show is fantastic and has become one of my must listen to shows. Give it a shot he’ll definitely make you think.

  We’re sorry it’s taken so long to get this episode out. We’re struggling to get back to the old schedule of once every two weeks. We’ll just have to see what happens. Because of all the chaos and discontinuity around here I’ve dropped a few balls and if your correspondence is one of them please write me back. Something has been up with the computer and it’s giving me fits and starts about being on line. I think its fixed at this point but I’m unsure of what has been affected in the meantime.

  Every one take care of yourselves and keep an eye out for each other. I was reminded in the fate of a neighbor during the storm that even if there’s not a thing that you can do sometimes just being there makes all the difference

Blessed Be

Foxfire

We describe the great time we had going to the Mabon Mountain Mysteries festival after being away from the festival scene for a year. We discuss our meeting Gavin and Yvonne Frost for the first time and the workshops we attended. We have a short moment complianing about some types of festival issues we dislike but spend the majority of the show wallowing around in the wonderful feelings being there filled us with. We would like to here say a special thank you to all the presenters and folks that made this fantastic event take place.

  The Podcast of the Week is “Nubia Godess Rising” with it’s wonderful host Imahku. We got to meet her at the festival as well and she was just a wellspring of positive vibes and knowledge. The show has a primarily Egyptian and Santerian type of bent but even if these are not your paths the knowledge here is amazing. Check it out, you’ll probably learn something that you didn’t know and Imahku’s deep sense of the wise is outstanding.

  Despite how things have gone recently I’m beginning to get back on top of things. My correspondenes seem to be all caught up so if I still owe you a letter please write and remind me as some details may have gotten lost in the shuffle. I apologize. We’re still working on making the shows schedule more stable but it’s not there yet and it will be a while longer until we’re back to the every two week show. We have plenty to talk about, it’s just finding the time.

  Thanks again for all the emails and support. Thanks to everyone for the reviews at i-Tunes, we so love those. And finally just thanks for spending time with us. Every one take care and look out for each other. We can each of us be a “shoulder to cry on” to someone out there if need be.

Are we in? Are we out? And just where is that light switch? We discuss our varying levels of being out from both the personal and professional, past and present veiwpoints. No great revelations here just an example of how we’ve lived through some of our Pagan existance.

 As so of you who are closer to or a part of the PPOTE family already know, Foxfire has lost his job. We are still a bit out of sorts over this and it’s absolutely amazing how ideas and emotions have been rip roaring around in our heads since it happened. As a conscienquence(sp) we are not entirely sure how this will effect the show. It is quite likely that the erratic schedule of the past Summer will become even more unpredictable. We are not however making any plans to stop producing and I want make sure that is clear to everyone. We love you all and are too thankful for your time in listening to just drop out on you. We just got back from a lovely little festival where we got to meet Gavin and Yvonne Frost and Imahku (of the podshow “Nubia Godess Rising”) and are just brimming over with new topic ideas for the show. So if it seems as if we’ve been overly long between episodes, well, hey, drop us a line as we’re still srtuggling with several things due to recent events and might could use a friendly reminder.

 No podcast of the week this week as I’m waayyy!!!! behind on listening to all my favorite shows. I’m also behind on my correspondence and probably owe several of you letters. I so apologize. I’m working on new ways to arrange my life and I’ll get on top of things as soon as possible.

As always, though, look out for yourselves and take care of each other.

The are still some issues being worked out with the new mic so there may be a few sound quality issues. I’m working on it as I’m having to learn a couple of new things to go along with said new microphone.

Arrowind and Foxfire wrap up the topic of magical tools in this the second part of last episode. We cover a few more tools and then decide we had better stop before it became a three part show. Being unused to going on so long and recording as we generally do, late at nite, you may be able to tell that we getting a little tired near the end. Trust me it’s definitely not a lack of enthusiam.

 The Podcast of the Week this time is “The i-Pod Witch” with it’s totally charming hostess Brook. Brook brings a down home sense of style and feel of genuine love of her spirituality to her show. She gives gemstone information and reviews books and other podcasts. She also rambles along about her life in a way that is very sincere and her “rambles” may be the most addictive part of her show. Check her out she is so worth the listening time.

As we did on the show I’d also like to say here that we miss our friends Ananda and Uthur. Take care of yourselves you two. We love you!

In this episode Arrowind and Foxfire talk about some of their favorite tools. We discuss what they mean to us and some of the ideas on how we use them.  We touch on cauldrons, swords and daggers, wands, staffs and a few other things. We really enjoyed talking about this especially after a longer string of deep episodes. Part 2 should be dropping in the next couple of days. It all depends on the editting time. We’re using a new microphone and it’s thrown off all my limited editting knowledge. I’m hoping that the new mic will make the episodes sound better than they were before. Drop us a line and let us know.

Take care and we’ll see part2 soon!

They feel the same way about the Pagan community at large.  In this episode we try and give some examples of why we feel this way. Yeah I know it seems like we’re going to rant about our jobs for the whole show but trust me it comes together in the end. We attempt to point out the differences between the larger part of the Pagan community and what Fox refers to as The Sheeple”. Arrowind and I went back and forth a bit on whether or not we should publish this episode as it seemed like it might be to “ranty”. I decided to post it as it just felt real to me. I hope the ideas came across. Please let us know.

The Podcast of the Week this week is “Get Out of the Broom Closet” with the host Drake Atlas. I’m really enjoying this show as Drake seems to be willing to cover some topics that others won’t touch. His show on Satanism was excellent. Check it out it’s pretty good!

I know that we’ve been really erratic with show’s schedule this Summer. The only excuses I can make are the facts that we’re are still dealing with Arrowind’s schedule and trying to spend some extra quality time with the kids during the Summer break. Hopefully we’ll be back on top of it soon and I’d like to have a new show out this weekend. We have several new ideas in the pocket and I’d also like to get another interview with friends type of show going as well.

As usual take care of yourselves and let all look out for each other.

Arrowind and I talk about some things we appreciate about the television but mostly we mildly rant about the things we don’t like. For some reason I can’t really tell if it was or wasn’t exactly what I wanted to get out there but I’m hoping it’s okay. We talk about our early childhood television experiences and how we attempt to control and monitor the experiences of Thunderwolf and Featherwind. In the process we cover a bit of ground in between. There’s no podcast of the week this week as Arrowind and I were so exhausted. What can I say “It’s been a long week.”

 As a side note our microphone seems to be dying. I’ve tried to edit up some of the audio problems but some are still apperent. Sorry folks. We’re looking into a new mic in the near future. If audio quality suffers some in the mean time please forgive us. We’ll get on top of it as soon as possible.

Thanks to everyone for listening, for the comments and e-mails, and the new reviews and ratings at i-Tunes. They are so very much appreciated. It does feel pretty good and keeps us both motivated to know that this show is being well recieved. Thank you all again. Drop us a line, a comment to Myspace, and/or a review at i-Tunes. It would make our day.

Once again take care and look out for each other.

We give a few examples of the spells we’ve cast and compare some of the things we both do the same and some of the differences. Journeying, spellcasting, dancing and drumming are just couple of the subjects at hand.

The podcast of the week this week is The College Witch with it’s host Dan. It’s also a bit of a response to one of the e-mails he read on his show. Check it out it’s got some good stuff.

I hope everyone is doing well. The economy has hit a few of our friends, Kia Dragon of Pagan Chaos Magic and Sparrow of The Wigglian Way, just to name a couple.

I just love hearing the experiences of others along the path and hoped that everyone would be interested in some new voices. We had a great cookout, drank ,many adult beverages, and then captured some wonderful conversations for the show. Let us know what ya’ll think as we’d really like to do more of this in the future. Maybe not quite as long  :)

 I wanted to quickly apologize for the lack of contact and the lateness of the shows recently. We’re in this whole home improvement stage and between that, the bank, the job, the economy, and a number of other minor but annoying issues (computer stuff among others) we’ve just been swamped. Hopefully we’re coming back around. Thanks for hanging with us and I wanted to say thanks to Kate for the support.

There’s no Podcast of the Week or Living Out Loud segement but we plan to get back to formatt next show. We also got our hoster issues sorted out and that should get things back on track as well.

Thanks for  listening and stay in touch.

On a bit of a lark we decided to interview a few of our dearest friends when we got together for a bit of a family picnic. I just love hearing the experiences of others along the path and hoped that everyone would be interested in some new voices. We had a great cookout, drank ,many adult beverages, and then captured some wonderful conversations for the show. Let us know what ya'll think as we'd really like to do more of this in the future. Maybe not quite as long  :)  I wanted to quickly apologize for the lack of contact and the lateness of the shows recently. We're in this whole home improvement stage and between that, the bank, the job, the economy, and a number of other minor but annoying issues (computer stuff among others) we've just been swamped. Hopefully we're coming back around. Thanks for hanging with us and I wanted to say thanks to Kate for the support. There's no Podcast of the Week or Living Out Loud segement but we plan to get back to formatt next show. We also got our hoster issues sorted out and that should get things back on track as well. Thanks for  listening and stay in touch.

Why not atheism, why spiritualility, why magic? Are we motivated towards our higher selves by curiousity, maybe fear, or are we genetically coded to reach out to the divine. We look at this idea from both the species and personal aspects and if we find asnwers or not, it’s the looking and asking that holds the value.

I just wanted to say thanks again to everyone who’s been listening to the show. You folks are wonderful. Thanks for the i-Tunes reviews, drop us a good one if you haven’t already, we’d really appreciate it. Stay in touch any way you can, we appreciate that too.

Take care of yourselves and look out for each other.

I am so sorry folks I have no idea what happened, when it happened, or how it happened. It was either Podbean or Filezilla. I hope I’ve got it fixed now. If not I’ll have to try again tomorrow.

 Arrowind has been wanting to do a show on Pagan values for a while now and here it is. They talk about Her’s and Foxfire’s own personal interpretations of Pagan values and how those mix with personal values. We talk some about the kids and how we’re trying to hand down our values and give them the means to make their own value judgements. We tried to do this before but it ended up being a show about morals and ethics and just wasn’t really where we wanted to go with the topic. It’s in the background but hasn’t been editted yet so I’m not sure what wil become of it. We’ve got some upcoming descisions about our hosting account to make before we decide what to do about it.

 I want to thank everyone who’s downloaded the show and I hope you’re all enjoying it. A special thanks goes out to the anonimous(sp) person who left the very first show rating on the Podbean site. We were so excited to see that. Also thank you to everyone who has added reveiws to the i-tunes page. It really means alot!

Speaking of i-Tunes, I really am hoping to hear from anyone else who’s noticed the weirdness going on there. It just seems discriminatory in a religious/spiritual way and I’m trying to figure out how hard to push this issue.

I hope Spring has sprung for everyone and that everyone is there for everyone else. You know, a hand to lend, a shoulder to cry on, and so on and so on. Take care of yourselves.

Hope everybody enjoys it.

No podcast of the week this week. We’ll get back to it on the next episode. Stay tuned for the forthcoming comprhensive listing of past podcasts of the week.

Between job stress, financial stress, the system trying to gt it’s claws into us, and a wide variety of other distractions it’s been tough to get recorded and posted on time. Well we’ll just keep on keeping on.

 In this episode Arrowind and Foxfire take a bit of a ramble through several things including our most recent Oestara celebration and our feelings on the personal connection between it and the Easters of the past. We talk some about our view on how some things are going to hell in a handbasket and how both corporations and the media have a hand in it. They fess’ up about the rough road the raw diet has been and their struggles with that .  Oh and possibly some other stuff.

 Our podcast of the week this week is THE MAGICAL EARTH. A podcast that Fox quite enjoys featuring Cliff, Susan, Jancithe (did that get spelled right?) and Alex (I’m so sorry I forgot during the show, I’ve tried to set it right by getting it right for the shownotes). You can find them at    Themagicalearth.blogspot.com        Drop them a line and say Hi.

Also at the end of the show, after receiving an e-mail that seemed a bit……………… snarky?!? (honestly I just wasn’t really sure of how to take it and felt a bit hurt somehow by the flavor of it) Fox waxes on again about some of the reasons and feelings behind what the show is about and why we’re doing it. Tolerance, acceptance, and love.

After  comments he heard ghosting forums and hearing one negative statement too many, Foxfire gets his eclectic dander up and feels that those among us who are serious about their eclecticism need a voice to speak out about what many of us are feeling. Blessed Be Foxfire pagan, Foxfire and Arrowind Yes No Halloween vs Samhain http://paganparentsote.podbean.com/2008/11/01/halloween-vs-samhain/ http://paganparentsote.podbean.com/2008/11/01/halloween-vs-samhain/#comments Sat, 01 Nov 2008 15:16:51 +0000 paganparentsote Uncategorized http://paganparentsote.podbean.com/2008/11/01/halloween-vs-samhain/ A day late Arrowind and Fox remember their experiences during Halloweens of the past compared with todays celebrations. They also compare perceptions of Halloween and Samhain as well as several other Sabbats/holidays that share certain similarities, such as the overlap of Pagan, christian, and conventional celebrations.

On a side note everybody go and vote for The Wigglian Way at the PodcastAwards and maybe we can make our pagan presence felt among the larger number of christian podcasts on the awards docket. You can vote once every twenty four hours. Vote early, vote often. I think the voting runs to nov. 6th.

Thanks for listening everyone. Drop us a line.
