    "The World Day of Prayer is an international ecumenical Christian
    laywomen's initiative. It is run under the motto "Informed Prayer
    and Prayerful Action" and is celebrated annually in over 170
    countries on the first Friday in March.rCY

    Hopefully Christian denominations that currently do not ordain
    women will soon start doing so.

    My dead mother was a devout Catholic and I think she may have
    been somewhat of a guardian angel to me, so I hope March 6
    will prove auspicious, though perhaps International WomenrCOs
    Day, March 8, which is on a Sunday this year, will be more so,
    and that we will finally break through the wall of pricks.

    March 6 is also Day of the Dude.

    This year it is also Dress in Blue (to raise awareness
    of colorectal cancer) Day (first Friday in March).

    That brings to mind my blue rose vision, the blue
    dress of Mary, and the blue light/mud in Sarah McLachlanrCOs
    Into the Fire music video, as well as the Scottish practice
    of dying the skin with blue woad, which I think traces
    back to a blue rose vision by a Scottish ootw 11,000 years ago.
