    i posted the onion/leek essay at dkos & had it hit the wreck list

    i like that because so many are interested in learning about growing food.

    we ordered out for lunch & immediately (30-45 min) after i felt horrible, puked my guts out then came down with a migraine.

    feeling better now but still a bit… eggshelly

    like i oughtn’t to move ver quickly

    hopefully tomorrow will be a better day

    Hecate’s Night

    There are two times in which you can observe Hecate’s Night – one on the last day of a Lunar Cycle and/or the last night of month.  Today is the last night of March – and there is end of this lunar cycle this coming Saturday.  I look on this duality as being a solar Hecate’s Night (such as tonight at the end of a month) and lunar Hecate’s Night which can be this coming Saturday, the last night of this 3rd Lunar Cycle.

      Sometimes this rite is called Hecate’s Deipnon

       “There are differing theories as to if Hekate’s Deipnon is solely meal offered to Hekate, or if there is a secondary intent of the meal offering going to the less fortunate.”

    For this reason a very popular way to make this Deipnon is to make a donation of food or money to a local food bank/shelf or other charitable group.

        Traditional offerings include:

    *sweepings from the home

    * garlic

    * eggs

    * leeks

    * things you don’t want to bring

     into the next month/cycle.
