The last two days I’ve received an inordinate number of hits on this site, with both Page and Post views all over the place: 20 visitors/83 views (June 21), 23 visitors/79 views (June 22). Individual Posts are being randomly selected for viewing. For example: Ace of Swords, Six of Pentacles, Nine of Wands or Too Hot to Eat – and I’ve never seen anyone access Arcanum before. It appears today’s stats will reflect the same level of activity.

Are these visitors looking for something in particular – or are they curious? In my years of experience as both a Webmaster and a Web Surfer, this last point is highly improbable. Unlike the 1990s and even the early 2000s, there are very few sites today that engage one’s curiosity. Very few. It wasn’t always like This.

Contrary to most of the content on the Web, my little slice of internet heaven is not dedicated to one subject or interest. It shifts from one theme to another…and another…and another…ad infinitum. Diving into this labyrinth is not for the faint-hearted and there are corridors that have yet to be accessed by curious explorers.

It is meant to be like this because I am a Shapeshifter – although not in the general sense of the word in that I don’t assume a different shape or form.

Or do I?
You Say Lycanthropy – I say Therianthropy.

I am a Shapeshifter in a metaphorical sense.

Right there on the homepage I state that I am a Witch. Everything I write relating to Magick, crystals, Tarot, astrology – and yes, even cats (Especially black cats.) – go hand-in-hand with that persona. Sooo, a visitor’s take away might be that I lean to the left, as most metaphysical blogs tend to be fairly liberal in their social and political viewpoints.

Whoosh (The sound of me shapeshifting.) and I do a 180 on you. Bazinga!

Next the visitor reads a number of Posts on gardening and cooking. Whoosh. I have turned into Plant Whisperer and Domestic Goddess. Some of these ramblings may touch on the subject of my reverence for Nature and Mother Earth which is not too far removed from my being a Hedge Witch. People who love the Earth are concerned about environment issues such as Climate Change, right?

Whoosh! Now the visitor is really confused. Who the hell am I??? Let’s make things worse for the poor dear.

I LOVE Rock/Mëtal, especially 80s Hair Mëtal (It’s my 7th Heavenly Lust.) and Mötley Crüe is my favorite band. Whoosh! May I introduce Rock Vixen.

I have a funny story to tell. In the late 80s I gave Mëtal Aerobix classes at the local gym, and used 80s Rock/Mëtal as my music. I was also a vegetarian. More than one person was baffled over this. How could I be a vegetarian and love heavy metal? They just couldn’t wrap their tiny brains around it.

Eventually, the girlfriend of the new Manager wanted my noon classes so he brought me into his office one day and told me he had “complaints” about the music I played and I needed to change it immediately. This was after teaching classes for three years there. Instead I told him I wouldn’t be giving any more classes. He then threatened me against taking any retaliatory acts against him or the gym. LOL

The next month I had set-up an aerobic studio in my garage. Many of my long-time students were angry at what had transpired and began coming to my garage instead. I heard afterward that the number of people attending the lunchtime classes at the gym dwindled big time. Booyah!! I win.

Rock Vixen also ties in very nicely with my Posts regarding health, beauty, fitness, glamour, Beefcakes and Vixens.

What’s this? I Feel Like A (Natural-Born) Woman… Whoosh! I’m ranting about the Tranny Agenda.

Suddenly the visitor is knee-deep in SPORTS?!? Whoosh! I AM Jock Vixen!!!

My love of the horror genre (esp. vampires) would clearly be in sync with the whole witchy vibe thing, but Rom-Coms? And what about baring my soul when I lost Diego? Is this some sort of EMO persona? Whoosh!

One more Whoosh! and my claws are out and fangs bared. My Shadow has come to wreak havoc.

Then Whoosh!…I’m waxing philisophical about one thing or another (Streams of Consciousness).

Who can keep up? I shapeshift more than Gary Oldman in Bram Stoker’s Dracula…

You won’t ever be able to file me away in a drawer. You’re gonna need file cabinets. A lot of them.
