Spirit Work: John Brown

Yesterday [10/8/13], Sethlan and I honored John Brown (the abolitionist who fathered the emancipation forces of the civil war) at the site of his execution in Charlestown, West Virginia. We prayed for his spirit and thanked him for paying the ultimate price (his life) that the horrors of slavery may end. I honor and celebrate you General Brown. As a root-working in living southern tradition, I know directly what you stood for. I wield my knowledge in service to sovereignty of the spirit. Let no force shackle you! None! May love and wisdom uphold our spirits with the power to serve the living spirit. --Orion Foxwood, October 9, 2013
