A Modern Spirituality and An Ancient Flame. May 25, 2015. May 25, 2015. When we think of the Temple of Vesta, we usually think of the one in Rome…it’s the whole “the glory that was Rome” thing.

A Modern Spirituality and An Ancient Flame. Vestals, Feminism and the “Evil Field”. July 31, 2015. July 31, 2015. Despite the resurgence and richness of the Vesta tradition, many people who think Vestal Virgin still think of one thing: the fact that Vestals who broke their vow of chaste service to the goddess were buried alive. Let’s be honest. Who can blame people for going there? Of course, that isn’t how it happened. It was considered a sacrilege to kill a Vestal, so those who were found guilty of.

A Modern Spirituality and An Ancient Flame. A Very “Orange” Flame of Vesta. August 14, 2015. August 14, 2015. How’s this for a cool home-made oil lamp? Cut an orange (or grapefruit) in half, scoop out the tasty stuff, fill it with olive oil and coil a short length of cotton wick inside. I do this all the time when we have dinner guests, and they are always duly impressed by one or two of these on the dining table (especially since I am NOT the Martha Stewart type!

A Modern Spirituality and An Ancient Flame. Not a Blog – Just a Friendly Reminder! August 23, 2015.

A Modern Spirituality and An Ancient Flame. Fashion and Faith: Wear Medusa, Honor Vesta. March 27, 2015. March 28, 2015. While I’m not what you’d call a girly girl I prefer sci-fi movies to chick flicks and grey pencil skirts to flowered dresses I do love jewelry. And like most things I love, I’ve managed to find a way to integrate it into the way I honor Vesta. Many women who follow New Vesta.

A Modern Spirituality and An Ancient Flame. Why Your Backyard Fire is More Sacred than You Might Think. June 28, 2015. June 28, 2015. There’s no doubt that outdoor fires have a spiritual feel to them. The red-orange flames shifting around the wood, the deep roar of the fire, the smoldering embers and the snap of sparks flying up into the sky…the whole experience seems profoundly natural, instinctual and meaningful.
