Banner Contest

Make a new banner for the Hedge (the main website, not this blog) and we will create a theme to go with the banner. (the banner is the big thingy with the website name at the top)

Banners should be roughly 900 to 1000 pixels by 200 to 300 pixels in size.

Leave room for the website title in the banner, or put “Walking the Hedge” on it yourself. Slogans can also be added such as “A Hedge for all Witches” or “Where the wildwoods and the urban jungle meet” or “The Hedge that borders the crooked path” or whatever you think would be awesome.

Once we get a few entries, we will have a poll and you guys can pick your favourite one and I will make a theme to match it (and maybe the runner up as well). Footers to match your banner will also be accepted and should be roughly the same size as a banner.

Wordless Wednesday: Brighid’s Candle

I purchased a devotional-style candle and then made the image for it

I used water color pencils on Kozogami paper.

What’s Up

I have the place to myself this weekend … and that also means the podcast. I am going to start recording after dinner.

I am planning a small ritual for Hecate’s Night with a friend of mine.

I am reading To Fly by Night: The Craft of the Hedgewitch. Yep, that’s right my contributor copies have arrived. YAY!

Also, I have been having fun using MS Paint. A member of the Hedge is writing an article and asked for an illustration or two to help her article make sense. I am also adding a few suggestions and ideas to the article. Here’s peek at two of the graphics:

I Believe

I believe in you, people

Like a great wave

I am proud of you, people

Like an oak tree

Drawing up the ancestors

Like a well spring

Singing softly to old gods

Like smoke on the breeze

Bringing change upon the world

Like a great wave

Arms reaching to the rising sun

Like an oak tree

Quenching a mighty thirst

Like a well spring

Dancing to the drumming

Like smoke on the breeze

I believe in you, people

Like a great wave

I believe

Like a great wave

Just Wanted to Share

My Dog

*

To Pan and the Dryads here

I dedicate my hunting spear,

My dog, the bag that holds my store;

I am too poor to offer more!

*

Nay, but my dog I cannot spare!

He must return my crusts to share,

My daily rambles to attend,

My little comrade and my friend.

*

Macedonius, 6th century A.D.
