You are the example we are the living vampyre witches and we have setthe standard created trends and now we will again lead by example. Werethe leaders of the community because we have been here doing what wedo not for honors within the community but because that is who we are andwhat we are and what we do.

And we are the longest consecutively running household or temple that is

out there that I am aware of, we always petition the ancestors and theancients for their sacred wisdom and guidance, and ask for the blessing ofGod and Goddess alike.

We are a spiritual entity, we are all inclusive in our spirituality, and ourTemple is a living temple it evolves and change with the ebb and flow of thetides and us along with it. The tempo changes as do the faces and namesover time as some times does our label, but we are at the same timesteadfast and consistent, we are the great contradiction.

We are the scholars the innovators the creators those who question whyand the universe; the philosophers, the teachers, the doctors, the artists;those who write the logarithms, astronomers, spell casters, gardeners, filmmakers and writers, journalists actors and dancers; witches healers andhedge witches, the web designers and more.

Lead by example and promote gentility, manners, chivalry and old worldexcellence. Be an active participant in your life and activities.

Within our own Family, it is up to the Adra to make sure that their Nadjafollows our Code of Conduct and addresses all Elders by their full andformal nightside name, and the Nadja/lower in title/position may choose tohonor them by including their title in the address, which is up to theirdiscretion. For example, Greetings Goddess Rosemary, Temple SahjazaMatriarch, or Greetings Goddess Rosemary. Use of addressingGoddess Rosemary as Mother should be used in private, not public

functions, thus propitiating the use of her proper name by others who willfollow your example, and to address her as Mother should only bethereafter first initial addressing to our spiritual leader, and TempleMatriarch, as Goddess Rosemary.

There is a chain of command that should be followed for communicatingideas, issues, challenges, problems or general feedback, A new Familymember should approach their Adra or sponsor, and thus they would go totheir own Adra or closest Elder, and up to the Priestesses, and from there

to the Matriarch.

The reasons for this protocol are many. Sometimes viewing a situation fromthe perspective of another can resolve an issue before it reaches theMatriarch. If it is for another occasion, such as an introduction or an eventidea, then the Adra has the esteemed pleasure of presenting their Nadja(who has clearly respected our titles and chain of command while followingproper procedure) what a grand display of respect and honor this is and allwill benefit from it.

We will respect all of our Elders, of title and or physical age, and we willhold them in high regard. We value all that we can learn from them. Let ustake for example the Native American path. Hardly any cultural group isattending to and learning from Elders as they should, or could be. Eldersare assets and rewarding resources; much more learned then our belovedGoogle. There is still plenty to be learned about the world and how to livein it. We learn by listening and respecting Elders, not just in our community,but also in the world at large. Elders have a masters degree from theUniversity of Life. What they allow to be shared with us is a gift.

The men within Sahjaza will be chivalrous at all times.

The women within Sahjaza will conduct themselves as confident ladies.

We are the embodiments of elegance, class, intelligence, hospitality,loyalty, honesty, fairness, and compassion.

The Sahjaza do not engage in or get embroiled or involved with drama orrumors within the Vampyric scene. Its unproductive and a waste of energy.

The Sahjaza shall respect all titles of members within other Households orOrders. If attending an event hosted by another House or Order, we canmake a formal introduction in writing about our support and appearance attheir upcoming event. All applications of common sense will be used. For

example, if they are your host, compose yourself with esteemed gratitude.Composure is key, act according to the event and your surroundings. Thisalso applies to online eventsas well. When an Elderexpresses an opinion on agroup or page, thank them forsharing their knowledge even if you do not agree withwhat was expressed.

We will do and assist all thatis within our power to co-existin harmony with other Housesor Orders so that we may allbenefit from the connectionand networking within the Vampyric scene.

We urge you to set the bar up high, be a good role model and lead byexample. Show the mundane world and our community that when it comes

to general good manners, civility and respecting all whom you come incontact with, the Sahjaza proves that on some level, everyone is worthy ofyour respect. You do not have to like someone to treat them with respect.What you project and how you behave, becomes the perception, and givenback. Like begets like.

Sahjaza Family members are asked to always think before they act. Thismeans that our own personal opinions may have to be put aside for thebetterment of the community, Family and scene. We are always

representing Sahjaza in all that we do at any given moment. One mustnever lose site of that and what that means. We must strive to be better.This is our duty because this is what separates us from them.

The Goddess we have chosen to honorthis month is the fertility goddess,

Xochiquetzal.

This Goddess is associated withconcepts of fertility, beauty, and femalesexual power, serving as a protector ofyoung mothers and a patroness ofpregnancy, childbirth, and the crafts

practiced by women such as weaving and embroidery.

Invoke Ichpuchtli for beauty, sensuality, survival, crafts, fertility, childbirth,agriculture, dance, music, singing, repopulation, flower magic, sexualfreedom, love spells, knot magic, sexual pleasure, sex magic, and a fruitfulmarriage. Feathers, marigolds, and small earthenware images of her areappropriate offerings.

Anthropologist Hugo Nutini identifies her with the Virgin of Ocotlan in hisarticle on patron saints in Tlaxcala. She was also the Aztec goddess calledthe great goddess or Teotihuacan spider woman. A retinue consisting ofbirds and butterflies followed her. Worshippers wore animal and flower

masks at a festival, held in her honor every eight years. Xochiquetzal isalways depicted as an alluring and youthful woman, richly attired andsymbolically associated with vegetation and in particular flowers. Byconnotation, Xochiquetzal is also representative of human desire, pleasure,and excess, appearing also as patroness of prostitutes and artisansinvolved in the manufacture of luxury items. This image is a clay stamp witha mythical butterfly motif from Tula.

On July 2nd, in ancient Rome, the festival of expectantmothers took place. During this ancient Roman festival,pregnant women would gather at the temples throughoutthe city to receive blessings from Goddesses associated

with birth and fertility. Some of the Goddesses includeJuno, Diana, Bona Dea, Carmenta and Lucina.

There could be nothing more auspicious than,the resonance of "OM" in our blossoming

lives, which go on different journeys everyday.

The vibration of "OM" symbolizes themanifestation of God. "OM" is the reflection ofthe absolute reality, it is said to be "Adi

Anadi", without beginning or the end and embracing all that exists.

The mantra "OM" is the name of God, the vibration of the Supreme. When

taken letter-by-letter, A-U-M represents the divine energy (Shakti) united inits three elementary aspects: Brahma Shakti (creation), Vishnu Shakti(preservation) and Shiva Shakti (liberation, and/or destruction).

Iridescent-throned Aphrodite, deathlessChild of Zeus, wile-weaver, I now implore you,

Don't--I beg you, Lady--with pains and tormentsCrush down my spirit,

But before if ever you've heard my pleadingsThen return, as once when you left your father'sGolden house; you yoked to your shining car yourWing-whirring sparrows;

Skimming down the paths of the sky's bright etherOn they brought you over the earth's black bosom, Swiftly--then you stood

with a sudden brilliance,Goddess, before me;

Deathless face alight with your smile, you asked meWhat I suffered, who was my cause of anguish,What would ease the pain of my frantic mind, andWhy had I called you

To my side: "And whom should Persuasion summon

Here, to soothe the sting of your passion this time?Who is now abusing you, Sappho?Who is treating you cruelly?

Now she runs away, but she'll soon pursue you;Gifts she now rejects--soon enough she'll give them;Now she doesn't love you, but soon her heart willBurn, though unwilling."

Come to me once more, and abate my torment;Take the bitter care from my mind, and give me

All I long for; Lady, in all my battlesFight as my comrade.

9"NN& *+QPT+,'&Land of the dead, unconscious, mist and darkness

By Lord A:

A little chat about death. I do not intend to build any articles

here, just sharing a reflection that a digital chat with friendsand friends woke me up this holiday of Corpus Christis.After having experienced some situations of great risk tolife and improbable chance of survival over the previousdecades, I became a bit skeptical of tons of publicationsand conversations-spiders that permeate the matter ofdeath and life after death. And as this is my digital space,write what I want here:

I do not think ... that builds "mileage points" between lives. Every Life a

destination, a life and a destination at a time. I see the remnants of ancienttexts provost of the Mediterranean and the North Sea I end up with exactlythis impression. I believe that after the end of a lifethat we experience real integrates with what isappropriate in rhythm, vibration, and affinity toleave behind a volatile temper and accumulatedemotional tensions for all traversed the needs weface while living; also left a body that integrates thebit again to all the decomposition or putrefaction.

Suddenly our works, our step, our touch and ourideas remain the works we did and how we relate -and that accumulation of ether tensions are likelyto gain a survival ... well, it's all speculationmysteries, powerful expression of the imaginationof each one of us.

Certainly science agenda to all these impressions and contacts "post-mortem" as hallucinations. Even with such infamous decree and obvioussocial prestige that entails talking or writing about it, people are still bindingto all this kingdom. Aesthetically what we call in the West of "the dead"relates to the "unconscious" of modern mental maps. For the arts are "thedepths", the "Dark Side", "land of mists", the "outer space" and the platonic"outside the cave." Places considered "metaphorical" for modern, are muchmore fair and related to pre-modern thinking and aesthetic appropriate tomention the many values, dreams and impressions that each of thesesymbolic territories aggregate and speak directly personhood of each. For

any person, the idea prevails that is best argued and that the arguer canaddress and resolve independent if a ghost or an "attention deficit".

However I think in the end, are more in needof the living dead in the West than vice versa.We call upon the dead devotionallysubjectively and objectively the same all the

time. Look at all the social construction ofpeople are governed, guided and led bycreations of people who died long ago. It waskind of abstract? Think of the city streetswhere he lives on the roads by walking insidewho dreamed of them, who opened, whoworked, who designed ... mostly already deadwho built who deconstructed, who lived, whorecorded dead and then killed are undead

they still influence and guide us and carry on their shoulders giants.

"What lyricism points on the other side of the river, after we dropped ourskin?" There still a mystery and the metaphors we use to address and wetravel as we want and wherever we want. Every journey demand planning,measurement, and of course go running its length. It is always expectedand some technical assistance of representations and discovered orlearned to collaborate in crossing knowledge. And well who integrateseverything is nature and she responds to our imagination. It answers agood temper to deal with unforeseen and unexpected that is proven and

effective nature of the world. If we walk as a scientist or as crazy demonwhatever. Our certainty is that just one day, we will love that and that onlyby keeping our sweetness to our most intimate and relevant values is thatwe transformed the journey to reach the destination - knowing that we livewell until the end henceforth returned to the second paragraph of this chat.

Is there any way out of this cycle? Will track a spiral? There will be a spearor sword through the north celestial pole and make the process an axialshaft, opening a secret way?

May the blessing of Light be on you

light without and light within.May the blessed sunlight shine on you

And warm your heart till it glowsLike a great peat fire, so that the strangermay come and warm himself at it and also a friend

And may the light shine out of the two eyes of youLike a candle set in the windows of a houseBidding the wanderer to come in out of the storm.

And may the blessing of the Rain be upon you, the soft sweet rain.May it fall upon your spirit so that all the little flowers may spring up

And shed their sweetness on the airAnd may the blessing of the Great Rains be on youMay they beat upon your spirit and wash it fair and clean

And leave there many a shining pool where the blue of heaven shinesAnd sometimes a star.

And may the blessing of the Earth be upon you, the great round earthMay you ever have a kindly greeting for them you pass

As you're going along the roadsMay the earth be soft under you when you rest upon itTire at the end of the day

And may it rest easy over youWhen at the last you lay out under itMay it rest so lightly over youThat your soul may be out from under it quickly

And up, and off, and on its way to God.
