On August 13, 2008, Oberon was diagnosed with colon cancer. His BLOG now includes regular updates on his progress.
THANK YOU! For all the love, magick, prayers, and healing energies that so many of you have been sending my way. It has really made a difference—I have felt not only upbeat, but positively elated throughout this entire experience. Even the sometimes rather severe pain never detracted from my general good spirits. I also want to thank those of you who sent them for all the cards and flowers—my hospital room was filled with them, and now they are arrayed all over the healing altar in our temple room.
Please see OZ's BLOG for more details.
Below is a Healing Spell for Oberon written by Lady Pythia, based on an ancient Druidic healing spell that Ellen Evert Hopman provided. Used with permission.
OUT OF THE MARROW, OUT OF THE BLOOD,
OUT OF THE BLOOD AND OUT OF THE FLESH,
OUT OF THE FLESH AND OUT OF THE SKIN,
OUT OF THE SKIN AND OUT OF THE HAIR
OUT OF THE HAIR IT GOES INTO THE EARTH
TURN NOW TO GOOD OH CAULDRON OF BIRTH!
STRENGTH TO OBERON, STRONG BE HIS HEART
BANE CANNOT WITHSTAND OUR SACRED ART
UNTRAMMELED CHANGE, NOW STILL, SOON GONE
AS WE ALL WILL, OUR WORK BE DONE!
BY AIR, FIRE, SEA AND SOIL OF BIRTH
HEAL THIS LOVER OF MOTHER EARTH
GAIA'S CHILD, THIS MAGE OBERON
AS WE WILL OUR WORK BE DONE!
BY THE POWER OF THREE TIMES THREE
BY THE SUN MOON LAND AND SEA
BY THE GODDESS AND HER LOVE
ALL BELOW IS NOW ABOVE
BY THE CHANT OF ONE THIS SPELL'S BEGUN,
BY THE POW'R OF TWO THIS SPELL COMES TRUE
BY THE SPELL OF THREE, SO MOTE IT BE
AN' IT HARM NONE, NOR RETURN UNTO ME
AS WE DO WILL, SO MOTE IT BE!
AS WE DO WILL, SO MOTE IT BE!
AS SHE DOES WILL, SO MOTE IT BE!
Visualize that tumor going to the place of transformation, into the Cauldron of Cerridwen, the Forge of Bridghe; being pulled deep into the magma center of Gaia where its baneful energy is consumed then used to create more Earth! And it is an easy jumping off point to see that viscous center as a Microcosmic Gate of Galactic Center in a Magickal Macroscope.
This is where I and ours would send a Baneful thing--'An it be turned to Good!
Humbly submitted, in Her Service and sending my Brother a remembered kiss for Healing from his Insides out!! Blessed Be dear one!
Lady Pythia
