Curious - this is the first time I've joined an ADF chat. [19:57] What are you curious about? [19:58] How the chats go, and how many people attend. That sort of thing.

[20:01] This is probably a question for the Safe Haven list but I wanted to ask...is there a particular Deity that would be helpful to work with for overcoming social anxiety? [20:02] Good Question. Depends on the pantheon [20:03] Ah, well I work primarily with the Norse pantheon [20:04] The Norse list would be a good place to ask as well. [20:04] [Owlhawk] A healing Deity is my second thought, first thought is Dionysus [20:04] Okay, thanks [20:06] I don't know the Norse pantheon very well, so I can't add any suggestions. Sorry. >,< [20:07] That's ok, Ty [20:07] What pantheon do you primarily work with? [20:07] Celtic in general, Gaulish in particular. [20:08] Ah, cool :) [20:11] I'm guessing tonight's chat is going to be on the lower side of attendance... [20:11] Possible [20:12] It happens [20:12] [Owlhawk] it's early [20:12] But that allows people to ask more questions [20:12] How are you Rovena? [20:12] I am fine. Looking forward to Imbolc Retreat [20:12] That sounds cool [20:12] What about you Owlhawk? [20:13] [Owlhawk] good. had a snow day today.. [20:14] Hope you got to enjoy it [20:14] * TyBarbary misses snow. [20:15] lol [20:15] [Owlhawk] I'm paid for snow days.

[20:25] Whatever people want to talk about [20:26] How was everyone's Imbolc? [20:26] Ah. [20:26] Small. I wasn't able to travel to my Grove so I did something on my own. [20:26] It went pretty well though. [20:27] I'm glad you were able to do something solitary :) [20:27] I've been busy, but well. I resigned from being on the board of a local pagan group so I could focus more on my protogrove. [20:27] Cool!

[20:28] Decent. Taking some much needed relaxation now that the kid is in bed. [20:29] Imbolc went well, and the protogrove made votives to hand out along with three pillars for the sacred fire. Candle making has been fun. [20:29] Sounds great [20:29] I've been a solitary for a long time, but I'm hoping to get involved with my local Protogrove [20:29] *** rovena (rovena@sorcery-lt6ddb.direcpc.com) has quit IRC [Connection closed] [20:30] I have decided (once again) to start over using Rev. Dangler's Wheel Of The Year. [20:30] I'm also hoping to meet with the local protogrove soonish. :) [20:30] I used that; great book! You'll get through [20:30] Also, I really like the Wheel of the Year. It's helped/ing a ton.

[20:50] Some redundant advertising: the 'Games and Play SIG' just sent a formation proposal to the Mother Grove. (Group formerly known as Spraioi Doitean) [20:50] Cool [20:51] What's the Games and play SIG? [20:51] [Owlhawk] And this makes day two of a Freezing Rain Warning. [20:51] New Special Interest Group, focused on the role of games, play, competition, etc. in spiritual practice, myth, ritual... [20:52] Sounds interesting [20:52] Sounds interesting [20:52] A few of us worked out initial plans; there's a FB group if anyone missed that. :) [20:53] [Owlhawk] guess some us did miss it [20:53] Neat [20:53] I'll likely get to do the local unveiling for Erie's grove around Lughnassadh (naturally). [20:53] I missed it too [20:53] I might go look. What's the name of the FB group? [20:54] Ach, I misspelled that. Spraoi Doitean, Gaelic for "the ritual of games" [20:54] cool [20:55] We went with English for the official name so people wouldn't get confused. :P [20:55] Good plan :P [20:55] [Owlhawk] Is this it? https://www.facebook.com/groups/1790061331216884/ [20:56] Yes!

[21:01] I only get to go to Imbolc Retreat in TX [21:01] Just heard about that one recently; it sounds fascinating but too short notice for us (Star is my wife :) ) [21:01] we hope so :) but nathan has an allergy to onion and onion powder so I need to pack our lunch and dinner [21:01] *** Guest29688 is now known as Star [21:02] so annoying I can't keep that for long [21:02] the nick name [21:02] [Owlhawk] Only fests we're going to make it to this year are Kaleidoscope Gathering, and maybe a small one at Mythwood Campgrounds in Aug. We likely won't make Three Rivers this year [21:02] My ex had an onion allergy, made me appreciate how many things contain it. [21:02] *** Star is now known as Guest7574 [21:02] [Owlhawk] it does. My wife's is seafood. [21:03] [Owlhawk] and any artificial sugars [21:03] [Owlhawk] Star, does it ask you for a password when you try to change to Star [21:03] [Owlhawk] ? [21:03] Hopefully I can get to Wellspring at least. [21:03] no it just say login [21:04] we're hopping to get to summerlands for sure [21:04] Still trying to get money together to see the eclipse from Nashville. [21:04] *** rovena (rovena@sorcery-lt6ddb.direcpc.com) has quit IRC [Connection closed] [21:04] [Owlhawk] ok. it's asking for a password then.

[21:06] [Owlhawk] Should be fine Starwolf. It would have changed you by now [21:06] :) [21:06] Is the Canadian dollar doing better than last year, at least? [21:06] [Owlhawk] not really. about the same. Dad buys US$ throughout the year, so he keeps me up to date on it somewhat [21:07] I don't think anyone from Canada came last year. [21:07] [Owlhawk] I had a month off over xmas, between xmas school break and surgery so not going far this year.

But I'm not sure. If you'd asked me last June I could have told you! [21:08] So apparently I'm running for NOD this year. [21:08] Hello athansor [21:08] [Owlhawk] Awesome [21:08] [Owlhawk] hello [21:08] I thought Nathan and Lisa didn't come because of the exchange rate. [21:09] Don't remember seeing Chelly. [21:09] [Owlhawk] That's why I said maybe. I can't remember either way [21:09] [Owlhawk] I know she tries to go every year but can't always do it [21:10] *** athansor (athansor@sorcery-qrl.nb9.75.184.IP) has quit IRC [Client exited] [21:10] I'm considering running as an extreme anti-FB candidate. [21:10] But then people might think it was a gag, especially if they know me. [21:10] [Owlhawk] hey now, let's not get hostile!

[21:13] If only you could kill FB ;) [21:13] [Owlhawk] coincedence. it's a natural lull. [21:13] [Owlhawk] Maple Leafs are up 2-0 [21:13] Please don't, it's the majority of my advertising right now. [21:14] Go Leafs [21:14] How effective has advertising there been for you? (Serious question.) [21:14] Our feeder is attracting crows [21:15] [Owlhawk] and lots of feline attention, I'm sure [21:15] It is fairly high up the tree so the cats haven't bothered it yet [21:16] [Owlhawk] Live TV through! [21:16] Don't know yet, just started this week. But it was free. I'll see after I promote a post or two. [21:16] We are working on our DP. I don't know how people oath to do that in a year I've been going since November and I already feel like I'm over absorbed sponge lol [21:16] I can't argue with free. >8) [21:17] You don't have to do it in a year [21:17] Many people take much longer [21:17] Heh, I finished in seven months. >8) (The standards were different in 1998.) [21:17] I know I just don't know how people do it in a year or seven months jesh [21:17] [Owlhawk] I didn't Oath to do it, but I'm not a big fan of Oaths in general. Aside from the time specific parts, it took me about a month and a bit. [21:18] We're taking advantage of having the Preceptor's attention this year, though. No reason to waste that advantage. [21:18] [Owlhawk] Smart thinking [21:18] [Owlhawk] Slytherin almost..... [21:18] LOLThe only oath I made was to start the path [21:18] I don't do well under deadline [21:20] Deadlines can help focus, for some of us. [21:21] Hey now, my Rat also teaches pragmatism. Snakes, indeed... [21:21] I took 10 years with it ;) [21:21] trust me [21:21] take your time [21:21] about the journey not the destination [21:22] I'm also in school for medical billing and coding and on the pathophysiology section to boot add to that the DP and deadlines bad [21:23] true that Bonnie Took me 12 years to learn to breath in my nose and out my mouth during meditation. Still don't like it but at least the pain in my sinuses stopped with the training use to hurt so bad to breath in through the nose and out through the mouth [21:24] [Owlhawk] sounds like a medical issue is involved there [21:25] I told my doctor of course he just shrugged but it did get easier [21:26] [Owlhawk] that sounds like you need to get a second opinion. Mine sent me to a nasal specialist [21:26] now there isn't pain just got to remember to breath that way instead of just through the nose lol [21:26] I've been a nose breather since I was born lol could be my problem [21:29] How was Imbolc ? [21:30] Ours went well. [21:30] Ours was good.
