Hello,
Hey, well, next Wednesday is a red letter day.
(By the way, what is a red letter day: This comes from the practise of
marking the dates of church festivals on calendars in red. I got this from youregoingtohellphil.com)
Ms. Pat McGuire will be returning on that day. Pat has had some rough goings on with her health the last couple of years and then she has to take off work.
And everytime she goes away, she takes a piece of me with her...So Pat will be back!
Yea!!!
And she better bring those pieces back!
And also on Wednesday, October 22nd, you can meet Author Lawrence C. Connolly.
We actually met Lawrence C. Connolly through Pat. How's that for synergy?
Lawrence has written a fiction / fantasy book call Veins.
Here's a blurb about Veins:
Veteran fantasy author Lawrence C. Connolly discusses the spiritual power of the western Pennsylvania landscape as portrayed in his new supernatural thriller Veins. Set in and around the scarred remnants of an abandoned surface mine, Veins features engaging characters and a fast-paced plot that Stoker Award winning author Gary Braunbeck calls "rich,
mesmerizing, and darkly wondrous."
Here's the Veins website

Next weekend is a red letter weekend. Nah, it's more orange.
We have our Hallowe'en Psychic Fair on Sunday, October 26th at the Rex Theatre
and Psychiatrist and Shamanic Practitioner Robert W. Alcorn, M.D.
will be doing a two day workshop
(Saturday & Sunday, October 25-26),
called
Shamanic Empowerment: Becoming a Whole Person
http://www.dralcorn.us
Shamanism is the oldest spiritual practice on the planet. Through shamanic journeying anyone can learn to connect directly with spiritual wisdom for guidance and healing, for themselves, for others and for the world.One of the principles of shamanic healing is the concept that our difficult experiences, traumas, disappointments, etc., diminish us. We survive these hard situations by giving up a part of our souls. The healing process is one of becoming more whole by reconnecting with our own essence, by making our own presence an inviting place for our lost soul essence to come home to.
In this workshop, new participants will learn from the ground up, and those who have already started can deepen and expand their experience and understanding. We will work together:
O to create a sacred space for our journeying
O to connect to our True Selves, the fullness of who we are
O to remember our soul's purpose for this incarnation to connect with wise and powerful spirit beings who can protect us from negative influences
O to heal and move beyond our old wounds
O to practice self-empowerment in order to manifest the lives we want to create
O to tune into our own source of guidance and learn to channel messages from wise and compassionate spirit beings
Please bring: Drum and/or rattle, if you have one, blanket, bandana or other eye covering, pillow, notebook
Casual clothing: We will be drumming, rattling, chanting, and dancingYour spirit of adventure. No skill is required.
Be prepared to lie on the floor when we journey, space permitting.(You can do it in a chair if necessary.)
Dr. Alcorn is a graduate of Yale College and earned his medical degree at Case Western Reserve University. He is in private practice in the Cleveland area and is the Medical Director of Alternative Paths, Inc. a community mental health center in Medina, Ohio.
