Yes, we are still in existence and still writing!
We are in the process of writing/editing our 30 day core belief kit. We have begun also working with our friend’s production company for recording our guided meditations as well (http://www.craftedrecordings.com/).
We also have our beautiful organic garden going as well as 2 hives of bees in top bar hives.
We just had our Lammas celebration and we are having a great time not working for anyone but ourselves!
Don’t forget to stop by and say hi once in a while if you like. :)
The Book if Ing is finished the first draft and the vegan pagan cookbook is nearly complete as well!
Take care!
Love and blessings,
BlackLion and Starcat

Yay! We’re done! (the first draft). As of today, we have finished the initial draft of the 34 chapters (unofficial count) of the Book of Ing!
We have now put the ingredients in the bowl, but we haven’t mixed them together or baked them yet. Our next task is to establish the flow of these ideas, so that the giant beautiful cascading waterfall of ideas coming down the mountain doesn’t land in the parking lot. After we refine the flow, then we can focus on water quality (consistency). When all the ingredients are mixed together in proper fashion, we’ll pour them into a mold for baking. Yum, delicious! River cake, our favorite!
Despite our mixed metaphors, we are truly excited about having two birds in the bush…or is it hands in the pudding?
Essentially, we are very happy to have finished all the SOCs (stream of consciousness writings) that we set out to do. Now we edit them together, looking for flow, consistency, quality, and content (to be sure we’ve said all the things we want to say, in a clear way, unlike this post). And we’ll soon find a publisher who is excited about the project. Woo hoo!
Euphorically,

Hi everyone,
Hope you had a lovely holiday season! This is just a quick update on some of the projects we’re working on and the fun we’re having.
BlackLion is now enjoying his un-jobbing! The one month anniversary of his new self-determined schedule was yesterday. He has some project leads and new book and game ideas. He’ll be doing some traveling soon, to Switzerland! He is also getting back in the groove of writing SOCs (stream of consciousness) for the book.
We’ve been working on the book intermittently. We have done first drafts of over half the subjects we want to cover. We also reorganized our outline to flow more smoothly. We’ll post a more comprehensive book update soon.
Starcat has been elected to the presidency of the EarthTides Pagan Network. She’s also been busy with holiday preparations, and has done some writing on her blog and in various personal journals.
We both took a beekeeping seminar, and are excited to learn to work with the bees this spring! We’ve been reading about organic gardening, too, and look forward to creating a garden together!
Love,
BlackLion and Starcat

The Joy of Unschooling
by Starcat
I’ve been thinking lately about unschooling. Unschooling is a type of homeschooling in which the child learns about the world by exploring his or her interests in an environment full of opportunities and materials, rather than following a set curriculum. (To learn more about unschooling, click here for a short essay that explains it well).
Going beyond the definition of unschooling as it relates to kids, I find that this is the way I learn. I find something I’m interested in or passionate about, and explore it using various resources: reading, researching, practicing, talking to people, taking classes, and more. I think this approach would be beneficial to all of us.
Many adults, however, don’t take the time to pursue their true passions. We get caught up in day jobs, socializing, parenting, housework, TV, and many other tasks and distractions. In Starhawk’s novel “The Fifth Sacred Thing,” she writes about a community in which everyone shares the necessary tasks of living, such as cooking, home repairs and garbage collection, and then, for the rest of the day, they pursue their passions. People who love gardening or health care or playing with young children do those things for the community. People who wish to learn about something can voluntarily apprentice with an expert. There is plenty of time for relaxing, yet no one is “lazy” because there are so many interesting opportunities to learn and grow. We humans are curious by nature, and when our learning is allowed and encouraged, we enthusiastically pursue what interests us most.
I think working toward such a society is a goal that would benefit not only humans but also the environment and all the Earth’s creatures. We would be much more satisfied and fulfilled, and less likely to over-consume out of boredom and a search for mindless entertainment. Those among us who enjoy science and inventing would come up with solutions for environmental problems that we face, and would be encouraged to implement them for everyone’s benefit. Instead of wasting time and energy trying to get everyone to conform to others’ expectations, each person would be supported in fulfilling their dreams.
In the meantime, as we work toward that vision, we can also make unschooling happen in our daily lives. By prioritizing your time, you can explore new things and pursue the things that interest you. Instead of watching TV or a movie, practice a new hobby that sounds intriguing. Get a group of friends together to learn something new together, such as cooking a gourmet feast or building a tree house. Invite the children in your life to take a field trip with you to learn about organic farming. Come up with creative solutions to problems or challenges in your life. Experience and encourage the fun and joy in learning new things.
If you’re intrigued by the concept of unschooling, Home Education magazine has a page with several interesting articles by parents of unschoolers. Click here to check it out.

Hi all!
Just thought I would let you know that our book is progressing rather well! Starcat and I are writing about 1k words each a day, sometimes more, sometimes less. We are, by my estimate, about halfway done the initial writings with some minor editing of those parts already done.
We plan to have the finished manuscript by the end of the year!
We also have a couple prospects for publishers. We plan to finish a refined and “finished” version of the first chapter and outline to put out into the world and in front of publishers in the next week or three!
We have not forgotten you! We are quite focused on the book and hope to have an article or whatnot here when we have the focus to do so! :)
We are continuing to grow and expand and explore this great multiverse and look forward to creating more for you soon!
Love and bright blessings!

Hi everyone!
I thought I would let you know that we are still around and still planning on updating the website often.
Starcat has been going through a health transformation and we have been concentrating on that AND on our new book that we are in the process of completing!
As we move forward, we plan to update regularly with interesting thoughts and ideas and tools for your enjoyment, path finding and path building. We also will be adding longer articles occasionally as well.
We hope you stick around as we continue to grow and explore this wonderful world and we hope to share our thoughts and ideas with everyone!
Please send any feedback that you wish to give as far as thoughts, well wishes and of course your wonderful energies!
Take care and many blessings!

“Hey Everything! We wanted to write you down!” “Umm…thanks.”
A First Attempt at a Brief Synopsis of the Universe as a Whole
(abridged version)
The universe is big. Really, really big. (Thanks Douglas Adams for stating the obvious!) Any attempt to talk or write about the Universe is an impossibility, because it doesn’t take into account the person writing or thinking about it. For in each moment, the universe is continually being created and recreated by every being and every ing. Even at this moment, trying to write about the Universe, we get interrupted by the Universe itself, such as telephones ringing or people talking or having to go to the restroom.
Trying to characterize something as either big or small is not taking into account the vastness or smallness of everything. Describing any ing discounts what it is the moment right after you finish describing it. You could describe every aspect of a particular thing, but it is continually changing.
That is true of trying to describe any thing, any relationship, any person you know or situation that happens; by the time you’re done describing it, it no longer is that thing, or the description you have of the ing is limited. As Robert Anton Wilson said, we are interactive processing all the time.
Describing anything in the Universe without taking the rest of the Universe into account is an exercise in futility. So instead, just experience and act. Act rather than react because by the time you’re done reacting then the situation has changed.
Well then, you may ask, why bother writing about it? Writing is an attempt at expressing your unique experience, so that you can share it with someone else. Writing itself is an experience, as is the experience of reading the written words. Writing is an expression of the Universe through the experience of the writer. All your experiences lead you to who you are right in this moment. Yes, you will change in subsequent moments, but you have still captured the essence of that moment. All writing will thus be incomplete, but it allows the reader to experience the Universe in new ways.

A big thank you and hello to everyone who attended the Lammas workshop and ritual on Saturday! It was wonderful to have you there! If you couldn’t make it, here are some thoughts on the Lammas holiday and how it may touch on the work you’re doing this season.
Lammas Blessings
by BlackLion and Starcat
Lammas is about first harvests, of getting our first taste of the things we have planted and tended, the first flavors of a new crop of experiences. Sometimes we tend to overlook the first harvest because we can see how much work is yet to be done. But it’s important to savor the fruits of our efforts, to refresh ourselves and renew our trust in the process, so we know what we’re working towards and recognize when it manifests.
We may look at a project or goal as being successful when it is completed, yet in most things there are stages of growth and achievement. When we take the time to acknowledge and celebrate each new level of accomplishment, we are welcoming those energies, becoming familiar with them, and encouraging them to flourish.
The first step of every achievement is to set our intention, to plant our seeds of knowledge, growth and possibility. As we move forward, we take the actions necessary to tend them, giving them the attention they need to grow. The next stage, which is where we are at Lammas, is to let those intentions go and trust that the Universe will take care of them. We can provide seeds, water, soil, sunlight and attention, but we can’t make plants grow. We have to trust that they will grow and thrive. It’s the same with any of our creative projects.
It may be tempting to micromanage or overanalyze the process of creation. However, there is a point at which, no matter what we do, we may only be hindering progress. So how do we deal with impatience? How do we really trust the Universe? Use creative energies in a different way; a writer could instead paint a picture or build a stone wall. Know that our projects will still be there when we get back. Relax and spend time out in the summer sun with friends. Let go of expectations - really. Recall other times when everything worked out just right. This will, too!
While we are still waiting with trust and hope to find out how the crops will fare, remember that Lammas is also the first harvest. We reap the fruits of our labors, and experience the initial results of our projects and goals. Lammas is a time of gratitude. We allow the feelings of thankfulness to build up within us, shining outward like bright rays of sunshine. Although the outcome may remain uncertain, we give thanks for the blessings that surround us in the present.
There are many ways to recognize and express our gratitude. Try keeping a daily list of blessings. Each morning as the day begins, or each night before sleep, write down at least three things for which we are grateful. In our household, we say blessing at the evening meal by having each person speak out loud one thing that they are thankful for in that moment. Leave offerings of food, drink, or small tokens such as stones or beads outdoors to say thank you to the faeries and nature beings. Or simply offer prayers and incense to the Divine.
Be sure to be sincere in giving thanks, and don’t do it by rote, or in order to get direct results. Sometimes, especially if we are depressed, ill or upset, it’s difficult to feel grateful for what we have. Think of very simple things: the food we ate today, the bed we slept in, the sunshine. As these feelings of gratitude find natural expression, our mood and energy levels will improve, perhaps gradually, or perhaps even as a dramatic shift in attitude.
This season is like a pause in the turning wheel of the year. It’s a time for releasing, relaxing and being thankful. Know that the harvest will be bountiful. Sample what has been created so far, and enjoy its flavors. Give thanks and offerings for the abundance. Open up and realize the amazing connection we have with the Universe, as co-creators of everything! Blessed Be!
