One other quick thing, before we return, to the Stregha focus, here...I have mentioned, the Divine Feminine Runic Kcebealla-Divine Masculine Obri Qabalah, were called Runa, as a composite, on other threads...They were also called, The Old G'raymmaerr ( Old Grammar ) ; And Grammar, originally meant, mgieckal language;
Yet again, the Old G'ray Mmaerr ( Gray Mare ) ( Remember the song ? The Old Gray Mare, she ain't what she used to be ? Refering, to the splitting up, of the language, so it was no longer recognized, as a coherent whole, and lost power ) ( I won't go into the Humpty Dumpty references, right now )
So the Old G'raymmaer...And the Number-Letter Science, of Gematria ; The number value, for the word, Gematria, in Obri, is 263...Let us observe:
G'raymmaerr's House=731
And, 731 + 263 = 994 , the sum, of our Mother/Father, Lladia/Lord, Pillars/Columns ;
You see, to learn the Old Woman, the Crone's Knowledge, it is to G'raymmaerr's House, we must go...As any true, Sdarrreag'yar/Stregha Wietch, knew...Respect yer Elders...( Wit more than one meaning there, if you know your tree wisdom )

Kitty, you asked about the Numbers, I was referring to, and called it your admitted ignorance of the Tradition...Actually, that was a most appropriate, and astute question, and I thank you, for the opportunity, to explain;I was wondering, when someone, would ask, on one of my posts... Yes, I would be the one to point out my own ignorance... I have read and comprehend the relation of numbers to the universe and everything in it. It would be much easier for me to fully grasp the concept if I did see the Rune sheets, when you are able to post them. This is obviously not my trad, but I love to explore all trads. I look forward to more of your posts.

I certainly have all the respect in the world for thoughts, general knowledge, and opinion until it challenges a post on this board. Then I expect to see sources, as the one who can be the most disrespectful to posters isn't necessarily the one who is right, that is how flame wars start. If you provide facts and sources to prove that fact and they become disrespectful anyway, then they are willfully ignorant (which I have NO respect for) as well that person becomes the problem of the staff. Ok. Maybe it's not my place but I have to say something here. The original post was pulled from a site that references Silver Ravenwolf. No matter what your personal views are on her, it is fairly well known that her research is often ....um....flawed? (thats the nicest way I could think to put it) So we are expected to take the original post as fact and get mad if anyone questions that? So we can have thoughts as long as they don't challenge what has already been posted? That doesn't seem to make any sense to me. Could someone clear this up for me? I'm not trying to be bothersome but I am confused here.

I'm not trying to be bothersome but I am confused here. Questions are welcomed here... None of the staff, or Admins have a problem with posts being questioned... However, if you are going to post a question to material that is here, we would like the question to be stated in a civilized manner. We like sources, we like sites here... The arguement of, "that's wrong" Either because you don't agree, or because you say so are not acceptable arguments... I know that Senbecc, Myself, Kitty, and the other mods.. If corrected and supplied with the site and source information, will thank you for correcting us if we are wrong... I do hope that you found this answer to be helpful with your question Blessings, lala

I'm not trying to be bothersome but I am confused here. Firstly who was mad? Secondly, that poster challenged a post on this board and used his Girlfriend as his source. You'll forgive me if I don't see who he may or may not be engaged to as the focus of my boards.

(thats the nicest way I could think to put it) On one further not Tahlia, I don't really see the statement of: I first learned of the tradition by reading the brief blurb in Silver RavenWolf's To Ride a Silver Broomstick. I then set out to learn more, and discovered Ways of the Strega, by Raven Grimassi. As the site using SWR as a reference do you? There is a HUGE difference in showing who pointed you to something and who is giving you the sources for your article...Wouldn't you say?
