ARIES (March 21-April 19): You focus on your relationship with immediate family members. While you can communicate easily with them, you may also be prone to playing tricks on them. Focus on meaningfulness.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You are shaken out of humdrum living and can realize the importance of making wealth, as well as seeing the means to do so. You have a greater appreciation for the good things money can provide, giving motivation.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): This is a very expansive day as your mind encounters new and powerful ideas. Personal, intellectual and spiritual growth gets a kick-start today, so don't close off new opportunities and new leads away from routine living.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You can easily turn introspective and generally become concerned about issues of value. For some, this can be monetary or property value; for others this can be ethical or spiritual values. Expect to encounter challenging idea.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Allow your social world to expand today. Contact or meet more people and take time to learn about them in depth. Don't, for example, try to increase superficial internet friends. Show an interest in them.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Many are heavily involved with advancing their career today. You should be extremely careful what you say, and not be too self-revealing. Others can emphasize being alone and should use this private time constructively for research.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): New ideas, especially in religion or philosophy, help to expand your spiritual horizons. Those who are younger are more self-directed; those who are older may be energized by their example. Put into practice what you learn.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): An unexpected change affects your career path or your decisions concerning it. These are generally favorable so don't fight new developments; explore them instead. Go where there is intellectual excitement.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Your friendships and other social contacts are expanded today. You can benefit by meeting people from other countries or from very different backgrounds. Once you find common issues of interest, the results are amazing.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You are concerned about paying for health issues today. Doctor's bills, medical insurance,or simply paying for vitamin supplements are the sorts of things you are paying attention to now.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): There are sudden developments in relationships today. You can find common interests with people, and so find a connection leading to friendship. Follow your curiosity and share your questions and your answers.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): This is a good day to work cooperatively with people. You could be critical if others aren't as dedicated or aspirational as you. Be more easy-going and it will be easier to draw them back into what you are doing.

"Each soul must meet the morning sun, the new, sweet earth, and the great silence alone."
-- Charles Alexander Eastman, OHIYESA SANTEE SIOUX
Each morning a new sun for a new day arises. Each morning the sweet perfume from the Mother Earth spreads across the land. This combination of sun, earth, smell and quiet is a magic door for me to enter to kneel before the Grandfathers. The sacred time to commune with the Great Spirit.

Oh Great Spirit, I humbly stand before You along with the new sun, the Mother Earth and the smells of the morning. I ask You to direct my thinking today. Let me live in the silence. Teach me Your wisdom, Teach me to love my brothers and sisters. Let me respect the things You have made

ARIES (March 21-April 19): You take decisive, if abrupt, action regarding your job. Some try to force reforms where they work, others are willing to suddenly change into another field.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You make a radical shift in your beliefs now. For some, there has been a buildup of contradictions and these people see the way to resolve it. Others may not be that far but the cognitive dissonance builds noticeably now.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Some can see that a drastic change in financial arrangements is necessary. You make adjustments in your investments, alter wills or change insurance provisions. You should see there is no time for half measures.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You take challenges head-on today. You want to force issues and create deep change. Some are active for social reform now. Others may experiment with changing their lives into a more authentic manner.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): This is a great day for exploring alternatives to your current line of work. An actual change may not be necessary but definitely seek to be in tune with the kind of work that makes you feel spiritually fulfilled.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You are at a crossroads when it comes to professional success. You should follow the urge to make a change and not talk yourself out of taking risks. If necessary, take small experimental steps that don't break the status quo too much.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You're liable to go head-to-head with authority figures today. It's very important that you stay in control of yourself and not escalate a situation. You want real change, not a confrontation.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Difficulties with religious, legal or professional systems comes from not understanding their underlying philosophies. You need to know how to deal with them effectively, without necessarily believing in them.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Your integrity is challenged today. You must be very clear about your personal and professional values. You must stay devoted to the truth and to peace for those hold greater power than any physical force.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You place emphasis on inner work and inner change. Outwardly, you can seem compliant, but you are going with the flow and cooperating with the Universe. You have a clear idea of the outcome you're expecting.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You are attracted to situations others don't want to deal with. You like the challenge, especially since it has personal ramifications that help to define and strengthen your character.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You want to be successful and also be able to impress people. It's very important that you be the best at whatever you do professionally. Let people know that difficult situations can be overcome honestly.

"We have to educate ourselves to know who we are. That's what I mean when I say, 'Teach the children.'"
-- Eddie Benton-Banai, OJIBWAY
It is only by knowing ourselves that we can get in touch with our power. It is said, "Tell me what you know about yourself and I'll tell you what you know about God. Tell me what you know about God and I'll tell you what you know about yourself." As we increase knowledge of ourselves, as we choose to grow spiritually, as we clean up our act, then we can teach the children.

My Creator, You have said "Know thyself." Today let me see the wisdom of this Truth. Give me Your insight of myself. I am always walking the talk and most people can see it. Today, help and guide me on the Red Road

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Discussions with partners are very serious today. Almost everyone gets included, no matter your degree of affection. Very serious emotional issues around love and relationships are involved.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You have to display a lot of maturity today. You may feel like the only adult in the room but it is a teachable moment and you can tell and demonstrate how others ought to behave and speak.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You take a serious tone today. Be very careful how you express yourself; use just the right words. You may have to go through your thinking in painstaking detail. People need to hear and understand you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): A career breakthrough occurs today. A long-sought position can open up for some. For others, the routine is upset and overturned completely. Still others don't wait for luck good or bad and take a risk for what they want.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): This is a good day to take an assessment of what you have accomplished recently. You should list successes as well as failures, and try to understand the reasons for each. This is to improve your next go-around.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Beware of taking risks today. You anticipate thrills from living on the edge but you are also prone to errors of judgment. There is too much chance of overlooking important safety measures. For some, malice can enter the picture.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You prefer to keep the company of a small, close-knit group of friends. It's easier to control that way; you like the diversity but you dislike the unpredictability a large crowd creates. You want to be in charge.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In your job, it's very important that you know where you are going. For many, this can involve the end result of the current project. For some, it can mean the end-point of retirement and the conditions that are looming for it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Politics of some sort becomes important to you today. You start to take into account how words and speeches are interpreted. More than usual, you speak for effect more than to communicate.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): This is a good day to evaluate what career matches your personality. Try aptitude tests and get guidance that way, or through some other personality and aptitude assessment.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You can make a gift of your knowledge and experience today. You know what others don't but need to. Don't be shy about explaining the reasons behind the end lessons.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Your adventures must be spiritual, not physical. You need to learn about meditation, prayer and other such practices that suit you and uplift you. Subconscious drives, mostly negative, are very active today.

"You are going to learn the most important lesson - that God is the most powerful thing there is."
-- Mathew King, LAKOTA
The Medicine Wheel teaches that there are two worlds - the Seen World and the Unseen World, or the Physical World and the Spiritual World. We need information from both of these worlds in order to live our lives in a harmonious way. The most difficult way is to figure things out by ourselves and leave the Great Spirit out of it. When we do this, we are making decisions with information only from the Physical World. This can be called reliance on self. If we ask the Creator to help us, we then get information from the Unseen World or the Spiritual World. The Spiritual World is where we get our power. When we do this, we are God-reliant. Being God-reliant is the same as being on the Red Road.

Great Spirit, whisper the secrets of the Unseen World in my mind's ear

ARIES (March 21-April 19): You're apt to lose all interest in being responsible today. You want to wander around, having fun doing pointless antics. Some, however, can be having a quest for knowledge and can learn a lot from it.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Your financial standing is so bad that you may feel compelled to borrow from friends. If so, you surely know you have probably mismanaged your money. A few, however, can be in this state not through their fault, but by fraud.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): People will interfere with your intentions if you let them. It can be easier to go along than to exercise your will but you shouldn't let this happen. Your welfare is preserved when it's in your hands, not someone else's.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You have a deep perception of what people are like today. There is a great temptation to draw them out and take advantage of their trust. It's important that you prove worthy of the friendship you're cultivating.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Your certainty of success is premature and makes you less watchful and more complacent. You could lose out due to lack of vigilance or from differences with the friends you should be cultivating as allies.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Your job is a source of problems today. Biases and preconceptions prevent you from seeing situations afresh, as they actually. Your spouse can help, if you discuss it together.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): It is very easy to see only part of the picture of your success. You can think that you did it on your own but be unaware of the support you've gotten from others. Be aware of this and be generous toward them.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You're prone to think that an opportunity will always be around. Get going and follow up immediately. Complacency -- even laziness -- will work against you and leave you even worse off.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You have trouble taking responsibility today. You'd rather someone else take on the effort. It's important to learn how to take care of yourself, instead of expecting someone else to do it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You take extreme measures now. You are seeking approval from someone; a few may be acting out of revenge for not getting it. In any case, self-examination is necessary so you can act from pure motives.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): This is liable to be a very bad day regarding finances. Reduce unnecessary spending as much as possible; increase reserves. It is possible to avert catastrophe but expect to go through a crisis.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): There are problems at home. Small issues can expand into huge arguments. In many cases, money is a major issue. Resolve arguments by first agreeing that income relative to expenses is a real problem.

"I believe much trouble and blood would be saved if we opened our hearts more."
-- Chief Joseph, NEZ PERCE
We are as sick as our secrets. Our ego takes over control of our lives and when that happens our minds get very sick. Then we hurt people and our minds will always justify our actions. Our minds will give us rationalization and excuses that we are justified in doing what we are doing.

My Creator, Let me live today with an open heart. Let me realize to be vulnerable is a strength, not a weakness. Let me realize the power of an open heart. Let me be available to truth. If I get into trouble, let me hear the whisper of your guidance. Let me make heart decisions and let my head catch up to that decision

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries had its humble beginnings as an idea of a few artisans and craftsmen who enjoy performing with live steel fighting. As well as a patchwork quilt tent canvas. Most had prior military experience hence the name.

 

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries.

 

Vendertainers that brought many things to a show and are know for helping out where ever they can.

As well as being a place where the older hand made items could be found made by them and enjoyed by all.

We expanded over the years to become well known at what we do. Now we represent over 100 artisans and craftsman that are well known in their venues and some just starting out. Some of their works have been premiered in TV, stage and movies on a regular basis.

Specializing in Medieval, Goth , Stage Film, BDFSM and Practitioner.

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries a Dept of, Ask For IT was started by artists and former military veterans, and sword fighters, representing over 100 artisans, one who made his living traveling from fair to festival vending medieval wares. The majority of his customers are re-enactors, SCAdians and the like, looking to build their kit with period clothing, feast gear, adornments, etc.

Likewise, it is typical for these history-lovers to peruse the tent (aka mobile store front) and, upon finding something that pleases the eye, ask "Is this period?"

A deceitful query!! This is not a yes or no question. One must have a damn good understanding of European history (at least) from the fall of Rome to the mid-1600's to properly answer. Taking into account, also, the culture in which the querent is dressed is vitally important. You see, though it may be well within medieval period, it would be strange to see a Viking wearing a Caftan...or is it?

After a festival's time of answering weighty questions such as these, I'd sleep like a log! Only a mad man could possibly remember the place and time for each piece of kitchen ware, weaponry, cloth, and chain within a span of 1,000 years!! Surely there must be an easier way, a place where he could post all this knowledge...

Traveling Within The World is meant to be such a place. A place for all of these artists to keep in touch and directly interact with their fellow geeks and re-enactment hobbyists, their clientele.
