Honoring The Sacred

Mothers day
Neither looked upon as a religious
or spiritual observance.
Yet for me, it is a time to honor the Sacred Feminine.

Isis/Aset Hecate
Mary Demeter Danu
It does not matter what name She is given
Nor does it matter how each individual perceives Her
What does matter is that we Honor Her.

Great Mother
Creator, Protector
She brings life and She awaits us in death
Sacred
Feminine

She is with us
She is a part of our being
It is our birth right

On Mothers Day take a few moments
Light a candle
For Ourselves, Our Mothers, Grandmothers, Sisters
We are The Goddess
Honor that which is Sacred, Feminine

Mary

A few years ago, while working as a chef
I was assigned a position working

for a Catholic Charity.
More specifically for Nuns.

The sisters were lovely to work for.
I would oversee their meals,

the school lunch programs,
the retirement home and charity events.
My relationship with the Sisters was a comfortable one.
They knew of my beliefs.

They never tried to change them.
In fact, on several occasions I was asked to

"Read" for fundraising events.
Yet, oftentimes I felt disconnected. I didn't belong.

One afternoon, walking the grounds;

I came across a lovely garden.
Secret, Hidden, almost forgotten.
Wandering amongst the roses & lilacs, I saw
Her.
A statue of Mary.
I was drawn to her.
The Goddess was here, in this garden.
Thereafter I would visit almost daily.
Sometimes leaving flowers.
Here amongst a faith I had no connection to,
I found Her.
Mary. The great mother. She of a thousand Names.
It does not matter what name She is called by
It only matters that we call Her,
It only matters that we honor Her
Each in our own way.

Beltaine

The dark half of the year has ended
The light returns
Summer
The Great Fire is kindled
Life renews, Abundance flows
It is the time between
The veil is lifted
We drink from the well
We bathe in the morning dew
Danu
We honor the land
We honor The Lady

Light a green candle to honor The Goddess

The Sun, Taurus & A Charm of Abundance

Taurus
Taurus may well be the Sun sign closet to the Earth.
Pragmatic, stabile, determined, loyal
Ruled by Venus, Taurus is sensual.
A lover of comfort and beauty.
Sometimes, that determination can become stubbornness
Loyalty can become possessiveness.

Bindweed, Wild Morning Glory, High John the Conqueror root.
Bindweed or High John can be invasive. An unwelcome guest
in some gardens, seen as destructive.
To others, it's flowers bring beauty.
It is used by Native Americans for medicinal & spiritual purposes.
It is a staple of Folk Magick.

Duality is a part of nature.
We do not exist without it.
The wise know how to embrace it, work with it,
transform it.
For magick is the art of transformation
