(En-Saille Honor)
EN-SAILLE HONOR Seeshelly. I have been Thea, Coyote MoonIris - standing on the sandy soil and of the city. I am Daughter of Edith, Granddaughter of Golda and Rose. I am Sister of Robin and a friend to my Sisters. I am Mother of Elizabeth and Amy, a Faerie on a flower, Goddess on a half-shell, the Wind of Tintagel, Companion of Diana, Demeter, Aphrodite, Lilith, and now The Morrighan. I am the Flame of Pan, still. Weaver of Magick, Keeper of Secrets. Priestess of the Terrace, Channel of Calliope and Singer of Spells, I have been Mara Atropos.
Through lies and torment, and from first to last, I am now the Determiner of my own Truth and every line in My face, every lb. gained and lost - A victory. With conviction and principle I part the Mists. I reign supreme. Born of the Fire, I am coming alive anew with so many polished tears from flutes and reeds; I am firmly rooted in who I am… A graceful Willow does not hide. Full Circle and to the Beginning: Initiation and Initiate I am altered. I AM the altar.
Standing at the Gnostic gateway I am taking My place within it having earned the right of entry, Protected, strengthened, triumphant, with Sowilo as My shield. . . I am Saille Honor. I am the Light that Shines in the Darkest Hour, The Light of the Darkest Hour am I. I am a Seeker and my life is a delectable adventure. My hunger to learn the Sacred Truths and the journey that set me on that path has been an extensive and all embracing one. A voracious reader, my spiritual life is infinite and unrestricted and as such allows me to drift with great purpose... I am a Priestess of the Goddess.
I hear Her voice and endeavor to be Her voice as well. Though I feel the strongest pull toward the Sumerian, Greek, and the Celtic pantheons, I am a true eclectic, a free spirit, and as such have found that I am in love with Women’s Mysteries, the concept of ecstatic creation, and the Goddess Herself. I have merrily danced on the petals of an Iris and reduced to ashes that which punctuated my life with sorrow...
I am a Founder, current President, and High Priestess of The Sisterhood of the Temple of Ahel Adom, a Dianic eclectic women’s Temple whose basic mission is to offer the gift of spiritual freedom to those women who truly seek it. I hold a Certificate of Ordination from the Temple as well as from the Universal Light Church, and am a formally Initiated and Crowned Crone. I am Master of the Usui Reiki Method of Natural Healing, a member of CUUPS, The Unitarian Universalist Church, The Fellowship of Isis, and AREN (Alternative Religions Educational Network). I am a devout Ritualist and consider that the process of creating beautiful rituals and then performing them carries one directly to the Heart of the Divine, enhancing and expanding life. I Sing. I am a Poet.
My passions are my husband and daughters, the bond between Sisters, vanishing within the pages of a book, gardening, and the creative use of flowers, roots, barks, and herbs in potions, essential oil blends, and incenses. My most recent adventure is the May 2005 birth of my new company, Willow Wise, Inc., where through my magickal elixirs I will strive to bring the dignity and respect of my craft to mainstream society, one candle at a time...
