Within and Around Me


Over the weekend my husband and I had a couple of friends over to have some wine and catch up. Well my friend Staci has been looking into paganism and feels strongly about her spirituality and my husband’s friend Dan kept commenting on how beautiful the moon looked, so we decided to do a ritual and it was very intense for me. I am very blessed to have such a wonderful husband who supports my spirituality and encourages me doing rituals and teaching our children about the Goddess. Anyway, the four of us opened the circle, called the quarters and did a daily blessing that I usually do with my kids. Dan asked if he could read tarot, and even though he had never done it before, if flowed and felt exactly as it needed to be. He didn’t read it in the normal ways they are typically laid out- he read them as they called to him. Throughout the entire ritual I felt this intensity inside me. It was like the first time I felt the goddess/god when I was thirteen, and that’s when I knew.

 I normally do not feel that type of power inside me. Even after the ritual I was shaking and felt the goddess so intimate in me. It was a wonderful experience. I think I will do more rituals outside in nature at night while the moon is smiling down on me, I wish I could find more accurate words to describe this, but for now I will just let this calm that has taken over me since then as a huge blessing. Our friend took a photo of the center piece I always use in some way of my rituals. Hopefully I can have him send it to me so I can share it with you.

 

Take care and Blessed Be!
