Aaremin’s Table

This morning on twitter MamaKelly over at 2 Witches Blog did her fabulous video Tuesday tidbit that got me thinking.

I remember when I was a wee girl scout, going to visit a deaf and blind school, and being fascinated by sign language.  I wish I had taken it further than learning the alphabet then.  I thought I had gotten a second chance when darling’s brother married a woman with a deaf daughter.  I learned little phrases to show her the few times a year I would see her at family gatherings.

I got fascinated then about what magick would look like in ASL.  We go through motions while in circle, arms raises here, palms open etc etc.  I found a journal Deaf Pagan Crossroads which seemed to be about the only one I could find at the time.

Then, as time does, it creeps up on ya.  Before I knew it, darling’s brother was divorcing that lady with the deaf daughter (and let them know not in a good way, so talking to her now is impossible).  I put it in the back of my mind.

Today that video brought it all back, the urge, the desire to learn very simple things to add that little bit more of a connection to all of the Goddess’s children.
