Hot Witches Through Herstory

Lady Godiva


* Lady Godiva

‪Her story dates back to the 11th century. She was married to Leofric ‪III Earl of Mercia who had earned his title through success in business. They moved to Coventry in central England where in 1043 they founded and funded an abbey in Honor of Eunice, and early martyr slain ‪by the R‪omans. The abbey soon became a social focus for the town, where her husband used his high position in business to impose what Godiva viewed as excessive taxes. She tried to persuade him to lower‪ the taxes for the townspeople, to which he responded that he would if she rode naked down main street. He was shocked when she agreed for the sake of the people. The day Godiva‪ made her historic ride, the townspeople stayed inside their houses in honor of her modesty. Except for peeping Tom. Still to this day Coventry celebrates an annual Godiva festival.

What Has Been Revealed

*Hand Book For Hot Witches
WHAT HAS BEEN REVEALED

The truth is the blood and guts of ones soul that comes oozing out when one has been smashed alive by God like a bug.

I found my own Hand Book For Hot Witches two days ago. It’s called Confessions of a Pagan Nun, by Kate Horseley. I want to ask the publishers if I can make it into a graphic novel because it rocks so hard and would be a wonderful teaching tool for so many.

God gave it to me because I was in agonizing pain and I asked for my life to unfold every moment and reveal the path to peace.

I was walking in the cold wind crying. I saw a pile of books and in a moment drew my hand to the first one I picked. I practice bibliomancy, by asking the universe questions and flipping through a book to land on the word or phrase in the book to answer the question.

This is like bibliomancy but with a whole book that every word of every page answers every question I can think of. I have asked God for this before and I can practice Living every moment in the present because I learned how through Buddhism. When in this practice, I notice the gifts all around me and magnetize exactly what I need and request. I also keep my mind and options open to receive new gifts and lessons.

This book had been translated from a manuscript written first hand by Gwynneve, a witch in the dark ages around 450 AD.The time when Pagans were beginning to be slaughtered by Christians. Reading her writings is like having her sitting across from me as a friend, telling me everything as if we were having a conversation. I want to reach back in time to the 1500’s and give her a hug to tell her it’s ok. Her words made it to the future and I will do everything I can to put it into practice.

This manuscript was revealed to me because we are now in another dark age, where we can learn valuable lessons from her on how to go back to Paganism now that the patriarchy, and industrialization has run its course. The age of Pisces is coming to a close and the age of Aquarius is here, this is what the Myans are talking about when they refer to 2012 being the end of time.

My best friends in New York are Jewish and Tibetan; both are races that know gentricide and injustice. I know why I so deeply empathize and obsess on justice for these crimes against nature and family because I now so clearly know my race has been brutalized for centuries.

Although I am white, I am not whitey. In fact I am the cracker attacker! I am the race of the Fae, or the “Bean Sidhe” as the book told me.

I can feel the pain of every forest burning, of every animal that goes extinct or is tortured in a factory farm, every political prisoner, the fish choking in the ocean. I feel them because I AM them, they are my race.

When I wrote my graphic novel Gasoline it came from this, but now I know I have to create the utopian renaissance and rebirth out of the industrial dark ages we are now in. I wrote about it in a book, but it has to manifest here in life first in the weird virtual world of telecommunications and then in reality.

There is a place where particles of matter and waves are the same. There are no words for this place, but it is where a Druid can breathe onto a stone and it turns to dust. It is time to dwell and go to this place, to never forget where it is.

I have to go to Portland Oregon because of the strange combination of Technology and the spirits of trees and how they both can help me begin a new society.

I have lived in a city with a population no less than 8 million because of the dreams and promises that a metropolis has to offer. New Yorkers have to spend ninety percent of their incomes on apartments they still think are too small, and they have the lowest breakup rates in the country because there is no other place for the broken up with to move.

But I have now found that the limitations and dreams I accepted when I was younger have either been realized or have been revealed to be delusional. They have metamorphosised into a narrow and secret passage leading to an expanse of space and liberation I had not realized existed. I now prefer peaceful surrender to noble battle, for in peace is an eternal freedom one never has in war, though sometimes fighting is necessary for external freedom.

My disappointment is not bitter, because I once was with a companion who did not turn his back on truth.

In the book the Faeiry lady Gwynneve looses her witch mother to death by medieval worms. Her mother was unrepentant and howled at the moon, carefully picking herbs from the forest and had hair like a fine long black cloak over her tattered real cloak. Her soul mate Witch Husband was slaughtered by Christians.

Although I have lost my witch husband soul mate, I find solace in knowing it at least has not been to death.
On our wedding day he promised to weave me a crown from his raven black hair to wear over my yellow faeiry hair. He promised to raise our adopted daughters to be witches in paradise and never know the suffering of this patriarchy, and to care for me even if I loose my mind. He said I’d get even more beautiful when I am old.

He recognized me from Atlantis where we used to live, and showed me his Druid tricks, which he specialized in through education, ancient thought and technology. He promised to help me use all this to make the movie for my book Gasoline if all the other promises of others failed.

I mourn over the loss of these promises now gone and the hope that burned bright with them.

I am not crying because I am being negative, as I have been accused, nor am I crying because I am being weak. Being a robot devoid of Passion and able to turn off his emotions does not make a man stronger. It takes more strength to feel.

But I now know there are two reasons I have no home and have been a wanderer my entire life. I have to create my home, which I know how to do now, thanks to the brutal heartbreak and enlightenment that has befallen me upon the release of my magnum opus and the loss of my soul mate at once, and also because I am a Druid, who have to wander to learn and pass on their teachings.

A teaching and quote from Gwynneve for all the hot witches, from one Druid to another:
“And here I say that a woman can ally herself with men’s power as long as she has her youth to offer. But when a woman looses her youth, she will regret playing that game.
And she will wish she had instead learned the art of druid or warrior to make those less wise respect her capacity for affection."

The definition of chivalry is for men to serve and protect women. It is an ideal and I believe is not entirely dead. But when all else fails, women do not need to rely on men for protection. And by the way, the only reason women ever need protection is usually from other men.

I am facing the patriarchy again now without my witch husband, I am weary of the inane games it forces me to play, but I am thankful that though I no longer have my true love, I do have my friends and family so I am not alone.

***GASOLINE SYNOPSIS***

Through the destruction of contemporary society emerges a world of
extremes.Nihilism vs. socialism is the name of the game in a new time
wheremagic replaces technology.
From the rubble and chaos emerge few survivors.
Among them, the Armbusters, (a whimsical family of orphaned witches)
quickly establish a utopian community.They uphold their position of power
by holding elaborate rock opera voodoo rituals revolving around the maintenance
of their car, the only working automobile remaining after the great disaster.
To do this, they must venture outside their walls of protection in search of gasoline,
now more precious than gold.

Their harrowing odyssey through a ruined but aesthetically mesmerizing
landscape where nature has reclaimed everything, leads The Armbusters to
the many conflicts within themselves, and pits them against the
conniving nihilists that now lurkin the abandoned places of decaying
urban sprawl. The new dark age is upon them.

Their post-apocalyptic tale is one of hope, and through their trials,
they learn to adopt a new way of functioning and are forced to change in
order to survive the hazardous and barren wasteland they now inhabit.

Through their unique experience,they find many ways to accomplish the
same objective, and are exposed to all of the choices and alternatives
existing those they were previously blind to while caught up in a life
of comparative luxury.

Gasoline is a supremely artistic and entrancingly bizarre story
with contemporary relevance and an ecological message. It
provokes intellectual and creative questions, examines human
fallibility, and shows us how we can live today, this moment, in harmony
with the natural world. It is a perilous and visually stunning tale of
danger and suspense, of heartbreak and redemption, of versatility,
compassion,strength, and above all, the perseverance of magic and love.

Love Letter/Current Affairs

I love Doug Stanhope! Long Live the Sarah J Palin Abortion Fund
Doug Stanhope is one of the smartest men around.

http://www.savingbristol.com 
Here’s what he has to say, and he’s the head of the of the Sarah J Palin Abortion Fund
Thanks for being a feminist Doug! And thanks Satanica for the link!

Never in history has a woman been under more pressure to keep an
unwanted pregnancy than Bristol Palin. She is the teenage daughter of
Alaska Governor & Vice-Presidential hopeful Sarah Palin - a
conservative, Creationist Christian power-vampire and pro-life huckster
who has put Bristol and her un-welcomed fetus at the center of a
politico-religious crusade to stop her exercising her constitutional
right to terminate the pregnancy.

Rather than sit back and impotently bemoan Bristol’s tragic, lonely
circumstance, it is time for us - the silent majority - to unite behind
this poor, imprisoned woman and save her from both a tyrannical
household as well as the horrible nightmare of a forced childbirth.

These are not empty words. I, Doug Stanhope, am offering you, Bristol
Palin, the sum of 25,000 dollars so that you can abort your child and
move out of that draconian home. I have also set up a PayPal link so
that others around the world can help increase this amount to ease the
burden of starting out on your own at such an early age.

I was once in a similar situation where I’d accidentally impregnated a
girl and she had to make that same fateful decision that now faces you.
It was easy for her - she didn’t have a fascist, oligarch parent, the
entire Republican Party or the sneering eyes of the Christian Right to
contend with, much less a daft, puppet boyfriend who’s just waiting for
the cameras to stop rolling so he can bolt like a gazelle.

We made the right choice and rather than end up bitter rivals in court
battles over custody or support, we are great friends who high-five
over our decision and have all the free time and disposable income that
young mothers never know. I now pay it forward and offer some of that
money to you.

You don’t need to ruin your future in order to support the megalomaniacal self-promotion of a mother whose every action is rooted in a demonic ego and archaic superstition. Don’t become victim of the same pressure that had your brother "volunteering" for duty in Iraq.

Please consider my offer as time is of the essence. You don’t want this child, the father certainly doesn’t want this child and the world doesn’t need another wailing mouth to feed.

I empathize with the amount of attention, pressure and possibly out-right threats you are getting to give birth against your will and I understand that at your age, you may go through with it no matter how much you don’t want to. Either way, you have inspired me to try to make a difference.

Even if you cannot take my offer, I will still use my money or money donated through this page to pay for at least one abortion for a disadvantaged teenage girl each year for the rest of my life in the name of your mother. And in my will, I shall have a good portion of my estate turned into the Sarah J Palin Abortion Fund that will help girls from all walks of life from destroying their lives and our natural resources by having children.

You are not alone, Bristol. There are many of us out here who care.

Please show Bristol you care by either donating or signing the guestbook to let her know that there is true love for her outside of her current surroundings.

UPDATE:
So as to negate any rumor-mongering that I seek to profit from this, I have changed the link so that any donations will go directly to http://www.LilithFund.org, a group that assists woman who need assistance paying for abortions. And I’ll raise my own offer to Bristol to $50,000 to keep up with the crashing US dollar.

Hand Book For Hot Witches
(A Field Guide For the Deflowered)
Written and Illustrated
By Dame Darcy
Contact: damedarcy@damedarcy.com

Combine graphic novel with a “how to” guide, add a dash of cook book and a fairy sprinkle of witch spell, wrap it all up with women’s herstory and you have the Hand Book For Hot Witches.

This is a girl’s guide to the apocalypse. This book addresses the unique needs women have, and covers
heavy issues like sustainable living once water, heat, and food have become scarce. It harkens back to an ancient time when women lead as the herbalist healers, nurturers and disciplinarians of the community. But also looks to the future and gives advice on how to handle crisis in a time of global extremes and addresses mood fluctuations and how to handle inner turmoil.

Hand Book For Hot Witches addresses our need for self defense.
It celebrates and acknowledges our inherent power of creativity, intuitiveness, and every female’ss role as a conduit to the spirit realm.

This guide book is for girl scouts grown up and facing the realities of surviving in the jungle of today’s
political society with complex ecological implications. And gives them simple answers through philosophy, skill, crafts and song to deal with these issues one step at a time through comics, fully illustrated step by step how to’s, in depth text with spot illustrations and resource guide.

Most of women’s history is blotted out from the pages of society.
Hand Book For Hot Witches recognizes and profiles “witches” who stood out of the crowd,
changed the world and fought for not just the rights of women but for humanity and for justice.
This book will help their legacy live on.

There are many “how to” books, and post petroleum guides of how to live sustainably.
The Hand Book For Hot Witches stands out from the rest because it has a unique view that addresses the needs of women. Although it brings up topics that at some times are hard to face,
the visual style and literary sense of humor make these overwhelming concepts and problems easier to handle and thus easier to solve.

This book is here to inspire individuals to make a change and inform them how to do it.
It’s also here to empathize with the current situation the world is in and does not ignore the symbiotic relationship that women have to mother nature. Respecting the earth is respecting womenkind, and respecting yourself.

The information and insight within is something daughters, mothers, and grandmothers can all relate to, connect with, and remember. To proactively create a future so all girls can inherit a legacy.
