Hi! Everyone! I'm Back Again! LOL!
Hi! Everyone I'm Back Again! LOL! In a word my computer is fucked. I'm sorry it has been so long since the last blog entry. I have been having major computer problems and I have been majorly ill with 3 viruses. I'm still sick but well enough to write again. I got so far behind in my professional and personal writing. Now I am slowly catching up as I listen to my personal Abbottsinn International School of Magick heavy metal channel on U tube. The music cuts in and out because of this POS You know what POS means. LOL!) computer. Whatever you do don't get a Dell computer to save your life. As the saying goes "You know it is a Dell Because It Smells." So these are the reasons that you have not seen a new blog update till now. Yesterday on Thursday April 12th marked my 12th year with keen. My clients have mysteriously increased for some strange reason which I can't fathom. Funny I don't feel any different after 12 years of being here. Maybe it will hit me later when I least expect it. Today is also a very special day. Today is especially special day for all you Pagans out there a sacred day to us Pagans I might add. It is Fritag the 13th. Bad for Christians Good for Pagans. Go figure. I'm so happy to see so many Pagans on keen now. I'm very impressed by that. Now back to Fritag. I had to respond to what Raven willowmagic wrote in her message to me in my inbox which was sent all over keen I suspect. I get very few messages just directed to myself. With a name like Raven willomagic aren't you a Pagan to? I asked her. As a Pagan you should know many positive aspects of the number 13. The first is that in Numerology the number 13 is a higher octave of the number 3 which is my favorite number and represents the Triple Goddesses Will in Three Aspects: The Mother , the Daughter and the Crone, and To Know, To Will and to Keep Silent. Not mention The High self, The Low Self and Middle Self. The 3 Phases of the Moon's Power: New, Full and Quarter. In Wiccan tradition the number 13 is the number of people in a traditional coven 12 for the coven members and the 13th for the priestess of the coven who is the physical representative of the Goddesses's Power in the coven. There are 13 months in the Celtic Year. The Death card is numbered 13 which represents Transformation, Regeneration and Change and the sign Scorpio. it is call Key 13. The Hebrew of the Death Trump is NUN which means: "Noon" Like High Noon. So lets not forget these positive attributes to the number 13. Just about every Pagan I know considers 13 and Friday the 13th the most auspicious day to Pagans. Friday is Ferija's Day or Dag, Dag being the Day Rune in the Runic System. It is called this by many Pagans including me Fritag. Sacred to the Goddess Ferja and her worship. Friday like the number 7 is sacred to Venus-Aphrodite who lost her niety and to the Planet Venus. So here are positive examples of the number 13 and Friday. You should also be aware that there are a lot of Pagans here on keen now and they probably like to see our sacred numbers and days given positive veneration instead of always talking about the not so positive aspects. As a AD(arch-druid) I couldn't let this slide. I would also like to mention that yesterday on Thorsday or Thorstag marked my 12th year with keen. In 12 years I have seen this place change dramatically. Now there are a ton of Pagans here when I only thought I was the only one or at the very least one of very few. I will be talking about this subject today when I update my blog here on keen. I will also continue my Tarot series on the Major Trumps and today will be The Chariot Key 7 the sign Cancer my sign as a matter of fact. Well Raven have a happy Blessed Freya's Tag the 13th. I said to her and Take Care and Blessed Be. AD(arch-druid) Stephen W. Abbott here known as Stephen6580 Peace! Peace! Peace! I left her 3 free mins. so we can talk about the sacred Fritag the 13th. Come check out my blog later I said to her. This day is even more important to me. Today marks 9 years that Abbott's Inn International School of Magick has been on the Internet. We are now on 13 networks including this one. Me and Tegwedd ShadowDancer who used to be here on keen during what we call The Boring Times are retooling The Abbott's Inn International School of Magick and rededicating it to the memory of our dearly departed Pagan-Druid-Bud Isaac Bonewits. A fitting tribute to a great, funny and very wise man. His death is felt through the entire Pagan-Magickal community. I knew Isaac for over 40 years. I miss him terribly. I think he would like us dedicating the Magick School to him. It was Isaac who talked me into creating the Magick School in the first place. It was Isaac who talked Tegwedd and I to write our book on the Tarot entitled: The Ultimate Guide to the Tarot. We are still looking for a publisher. If we can't find a publisher then we will publish it here on the internet as a e-book. I would like to turn you onto a really cool network which is called Temple Illuminatus.com check it out and leave me a message in my inbox telling me what you think. Tegwedd and I think it is a really cool site. When you get a chance get a chat reading from me here on keen. Chat readings are still in BETA here on keen. There are bugs in the system but they can be fixed. Chat readings are the future. Keen needs to upgrade its image and do more advertising to keep them relevant to the times we live in. I'm optimistic that they can rise up through mediocrity and assume a evolved state of prominence in this field. I still do e-mail readings here on keen. These readings can be up to 9,000 characters in length and can be on just about any topic say love and romance and fiances and career. If you want such a reading from me leave me a message in my inbox here and I will get back to you right away. I'm still teaching classes in Pagan-Magickal subjects and using the same system I use for the e-mail readings I offer here on keen. If you are interested in these classes please drop me a line in my inbox here on keen. I am retooling all of my 5 homepages of my 5 listings here on keen. Later on you can check them out and tell me what you think of the changes.For all of you 1,000 plus clients of mine I have a special offer for you today. In honor of this being Fritag the 13th and the 9th year of Abbottsinn International School of Magick on the internet I am sending out to all these 1,000 plus clients and offer of 5 Free Minutes. To thank you for allowing me to serve you all for the last 12 years here on keen. I hope that many of you will call me after I send them out today. I will be sending them out after I finish this extra-long blog entry. Finally I will end this post by talking about the Chariot Key 7. The sign Cancer which is my sign. In my System of the Tarot which I created and published in the early 70's which I gave the title" The Pentacle Layout System", The Chariot-Charioteer-Victorious One is the number 7 in the deck. It rules all the other 7's in the 4 Suits of the Minor Arcana. In my opinion The Chariot-Charioteer-Victorious One is one of the most powerful cards and least understood cards in the deck. The Hebrew letter for this card is Cheth which means" Fence." On the Qabalistic Tree of Life the Chariot-Charioteer-Victorious One represents the 18th Path. This is the golden path between Severity 5 ruled by Mars and Binah 3 ruled by Saturn. Binah is known as "Understanding." As a" Fence, "the Chariot-Charioteer-Victorious One is a "Protector" and "Guardian of the House" which is Beth the Magician Key1. I have always identified the Chariot-Charioteer-Victorious One with the Great Pagan Irish Hero Cuchulain the Hound of Ulster. The quintessential hero in the Mythic tradition of Ancient Pagan Ireland. He is most prominent in the Irish Mythological Cycle of Ancient Tales. He was the greatest Charioteer-Warrior who ever lived in my humble opinion being that I am Irish-Cherokee and German. So to sum up: The Chariot-Charioteer- Victorious One is the Sign Cancer the Hebrew letter Cheth which is the "Fence" and has the Hebrew letter-number value of 8 and is the 18th Path on the Qabalistic Tree of Life. The golden path between The Sephiroth-Sphere Severity-Geburah ruled by the planet Mars and Understanding-Binah ruled by the planet Saturn. As the 18th Path of the Qabalistic Tree of Life it is given the title of the Intelligence of the House of Influence. In a reading this card could pertain to issues dealing with Protection and Guardianship and to all aspects of Travel. Travel means a great deal to us in this day and age of the 21st Century. Well I hope you liked what I said here and you got something out of it. The next update will be on the Strength Trump Key 8 the Sign Leo. I hope you will enjoy that one to. Until we meet again Take Care and Blessed Be. AD(arch-druid) Stephen W. Abbott here known as Stephen6580 and on other networks as Stephen93 and Abbottsinn and DruidMaster. Peace! Peace! Peace!
