Casita Hermiticia

Cougina and Aggie are sedentary for the winter, meaning that we have rented a place. This is a big change for a man who has not lived on a specific piece of property in the last thirty years, and then not for more than 6 months. The big reason for the move is to create a healing space for C.  Having always taken his invincibility for granted, the tenacity of the West Nile virus took him by surprise.  So what if he's the only one of the dozen victims in AZ who is still ambulatory.  He expected to be back to full health in a couple of weeks, and it hasn't worked out that way.  

So here's the new place. It's a one bedroom casita, one of eight on the property, a little stand-alone house that is rapidly becoming our home. You can see today's addition, the potted mums (yellow - third chakra and purple - 6th chakra) out front, hanging baskets on the entrance stoop, and (my favorite) the vegetable and herb garden in the box.  Cougina staked up one heirloom tomato plant with two tiny green tomatoes.
Our landlords are a married couple, two wonderfully kind yellow spirit bodies. Cougina is encouraging them in their notion that we might be a defrocked priest and nun. Well, they sort of wondered about the altar setup in the living room. 

[Cougina wants me to tell you that while he was in the shower just now, he washed his ass, just for me. I don't think he is familiar with the acronym TMI. I am just barely aware, so I won't add any detail.]

We'll post some interior photos another time.  For now, here is a view of the new incarnation of our hermetic altar.  Having a fixed space for the first time, we got some big fragrant candles at Target, a lovely sounding crystal bell, and an Indian (Asian) incense burner that can be held in the hands while burning. We have been and will be using this more powerful altar setup in our ritual work for Cougina's healing.  If this is of interest to you, we will be discussing this ritual in detail on Covina Hermiticia.  email covina.hermiticia@att.net to inquire about a free trial membership.
