Erotic Cyn for your senses

I know I spoke a bit on this topic, but today, I want to delve a bit more into detail on the hows, whys and explain why there are some cliches that are found within the pagan community which will always be there. Everyone has a ritual in how they do things- in fact, for many in the US, they participated in a huge ritual on Thursday. That’s right- those who did a traditional Thanksgiving, have repeated a ritual that was handed down to them from their ancestors. Which makes you wonder- what is ritual and what place does it have in our lives? Read the rest of this entry »

Mistress Cynnara- I know you’re called a mistress because you engage in sexual BDSM. But honestly, what is BDSM? Is it just another form of kink? How do you know if you’re truly into the world of BDSM? — Tie Me Up and Spank Me in Texas

BDSM is a hot topic right now in many areas- from television, books, and more. Why? Because people are realizing that kink and the deeper ingrained needs aren’t just the usual missionary or woman superior sex anymore. What’s more important, great strides have been made, including the DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) have declared that BDSM activities are part of normal life, as long as they, like most things, are not taken in the extreme.

Happy Thanksgiving to all fellow Americans. To everyone else in the universe, happy Thursday. Today, my country celebrates the harsh and hard times of the Pilgrims. It also celebrates with thanks that the local Indian tribes took pity on the English and helped them out. Read the rest of this entry »

The past few days, I’ve been thinking on the non-fiction book dealing with paganism I’ve been wanting to write. How my beliefs and my growing knowledge has led me to honouring not just part of my ethnic heritages but the idea of all being important to my spiritual and mental health. Most people learn one tradition, thinking that it’s the end all be all of their beliefs. Whether it’s druidism, Asatru, Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, or any other religion, there are very few that teach that other beliefs are valid. (There are a few religions, and I applaud their ability to be open and to see the value inherent of others.) Read the rest of this entry »

A while back, I had a story in the Spirited anthology entitled Match Game, Ghost Style. Well, Loose Id, in its wonderfulness, decided to make it a classic, releasing it into it’s own book with a brand new cover. I admit, the cover is PERFECT for what I envisioned for Shari.

Ann Vremont posted links to a beautiful fairytale scene she created. Then she challenged people on the Changeling Press Yahoo group to come up with a flash fiction. So…I came up with one. Gods only knows what will happen next. LOL

It also reminded me of some traditions I want to keep alive for the younger generation in our family tree. Read the rest of this entry »

Sometimes, I have no idea on what to write for Flash Fiction day. Today is one of those days. Why? Because I got out of working today and I came home bored. I want to read books and do NOTHING. LMAO But there are ideas floating in my mind, the question is- what will come out?

Thinking on it, I wanted to revisit a story I’ve not finished telling, but have hinted at. That of Kymaera. She’s one of my favorite female characters and someone whom I’m very fond of. Enjoy.

Today’s topic comes from a friend of mine. One I’ve got to admit, had me thinking and wondering how to go about this and not gross people out and how to get people past the Eew factor. So what’s today’s topic?

Dear Mistress Cynnara- I’m a woman who loves sex, but it’s weird, either right before or during my period, it’s the time when I’m the most horny. Why does this happen and how can I convince my male, I want sex and to have him give it to me? — Raging Hormones in the Mountains Read the rest of this entry »

Many people who believe in the four main elements of the Middle Ages- air, earth, water, fire, do not count spirit among them. For them, Spirit comes from man or a higher power, not part of the elemental focus. Yet, when you consider the balance of the elements, you can’t deny the way Spirit unites them all. Spirit is truly a neutral element- neither male nor female, but both at the same time. To people who serve the spirit, the element often has female properties they see more often. Sometimes it’s harder to discern the positive and negative of spirit, especially in how personal people see Spirit. But it can be done. Read the rest of this entry »
