My thoughts on Buddhism and Paganism as it relates to my practice

1st quarter in sidereal Cancer - Weeping Moon. What makes you sad? Use this moon to think about it. "There's nothing wrong with sitting on the pity pot. Just flush when you're done".
The biggest thing that makes me sad now days is RACISM. Whether it be people to people or racism against pit bulls, it just sickens me. There are many times that I ask my Gods to PLEASE help end racism. Just disgusts me.
I know what you mean. I hate thinking that I'm being judged before someone even gets to know me because my skin is brown. I have to teach my son to be on guard, that he has to work 2x as hard because society expects him to fail. Black women are expected to straighten their hair to fit in with society. Why? Why is it not acceptable for a black newswoman to rock an afro or braids? Programs such as affirmative action should not have to exist.
Sexism sucks too. It's a known fact that women make less than men for doing the exact same job with the exact same education, experience, etc. Why? Why is a woman a bitch when she's aggressive in the workplace? There are way more women in this world but yet men hold most of the power positions.
