It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that we must advise that Atham Z passed away on May 25, 2008, peacefully in her sleep. She had been struggling with ill health for a long time. Our sympathies to her family, friends and to the many people who counted on her strength, wisdom and spiritual guidance over the years. We know she and Marta will be swapping recipes and sharing a few laughs.
Atham Z
May 25, 1951 - May 25, 2008
Her own website has been taken down. This page will be converted into an appropriate tribute page for our valued friend, gifted reader and the Vice President of Tarot Canada.
ATHAME: A black handled, double-edged sword. Principally used to cast and dissolve the magic circle, for which purposes it is interchangeable with the magic sword.
My name is Atham, not athame, although I have been accused of having a knife edged tongue in the past!
These two names have a highly coincidental similarity. I take no part in any witchcraft activities but I do pride myself on trying to pierce to the heart of issues.
Atham is an acronym derived from the following: "A"ll "T"hings "H"ave "A" "M"eaning. The letter "Z" is reportedly the Greek letter meaning "He is alive.".
By choosing this name I feel that I acknowledge the unity of the universe and exclaim to the world my vital role in its workings.
