Why The Ting Is…

Posted in thoughts on July 8th, 2009 by scott – Be the first to comment

If you have ever tried to think up and website  address and then register it you will know what a nightmare it can be! Sandy and I spent days trying to come up with a name that would somehow link everything that we were interested in together. Our interests are varied and yet similar, Sandy is into Earth magic, paganism, ancient history, sustainability, the list is very long, I am into Tai Chi, Taoism, internal healing systems, Shamanism etc. etc.

So after wandering around the house for days shouting out random names, Sandy eventually turned to me and said the ting is… I burst into laughter and the name of our site was born. The Ting or Cauldron is hexagram 50 of the I Ching, central to both Sandy’s path and my own, a melting pot that gives birth to new things, cauldrons are found in the legends of both the east and the west.

Beginnings are difficult and exciting times so please be patient as our website grows and laugh with us at all the mistakes we are likely to make.

Have a great day

Love Scott and Sandy
