What a windy day!

Oh my…what a windy day it is out there….I love walking on windy days!
I love how the wind wraps around you and seems to fill you up…exciting everything inside you…mixing it all up and filling it with energy! Makes me feel like standing tall on something and laughing!

If you are an air witch…..wow, this must be a great time to work with your element…all that raw power!

The sound of the wind as it blows through the trees…the difference in the sound depending on whether the trees are in leaf or not…elemental music!

I have been indoors for a while now but I still feel all buzzy inside from earlier when I took the dog out.

Stay safe in the high winds we have at the moment…but enjoy the energy they bring too!

Full Moon Wolf Moon

Full Moon Blessings

Hello again, here it is, the first full moon of 2016, known as the Wolf Moon!

I am all set, so is my altar, this time with an orb shaped candle, inscribed with a glyph representing the full moon, my clear crystals are out, I have smudged my area and I will perform my ritual later.  Whatever your plans for your full moon, blessings to you.

Here is some more information of the Wolf Moon courtesy of Goddess Rising 13 Moon Sisterhood;

*WOLF/LEO FULL MOON JAN 23*
Wild Sacred Blessings on this first Full Moon of 2016!

The name Wolf Moon comes from Indigenous Tribes of North America, who gave names to each of the moons, in relation to their qualities connected to nature and the seasons.

The Sacred Wolf Medicine, representing ‘Teacher’, great wisdom, wildness and inner freedom is beckoning our attention. Maybe you are already feeling it in your bones and are ready to dance and howl! This Wolf Moon reminds us the importance of expressing our heart’s truth and our wildness, to live feeling free.

Connected with Leo, this moon mirrors the importance of reflecting our light from within, discovering and sharing our greatest gifts, and expressing our creativity from authenticity to expand in true sovereignty, as Wild Queen!

This full moon also illuminates the shadows that need clearing / healing / transforming, which are often thoughts and beliefs preventing us from living in our wild sacred nature and our fullest potential.

Candles make me happy.

Here is my altar tonight…this is making me happy. I managed to find a very reasonably priced pillar candle as I am running low on white candles, so I gave into the urge to light it tonight.

I am working on my ritual for the full moon this weekend, (as you may remember from a previous post) I have worked out a ritual for the new moon so now I wish to work one out for my full moon observances. I also obtained an orb shaped candle in white as I thought this would be fabulous to represent the Full Moon…but that is as far as I have got so far….I still have time however, the seeds of an idea are there, just need to allow it to grow over the coming hours!

Do you have any set rituals that you work…or do you just go with the flow and how you feel on the day?

Anyway, this makes 2 posts from me today so I will say bye for now and see you for the Full Moon! )0(

First New Moon of 2016

Hello and good evening!

It is the first New Moon of 2016, new beginings abound.

I have written out a ritual for myself…it is my first and is how I intend to observe each new moon. As my journey progresses, my rituals may change as I work out what works for me and what doesn’t but this felt right as I worked it tonight.
As a New Moon is a time for putting plans in place for growth, I aired the house out earlier, I have re-potted some young house plants and top dressed others ready for them to wake slowly over the next few weeks.
I got my altar ready for this evening, my black candle has been inscribed with the sigil for a New Moon all the way down and I have my black stones of jet and obsidian on my altar too.

I have my manifestations that I want to achieve, this contains mainly personal things that I want to work on as the moon grows in her brightness and intensity. These I will read daily to re-affirm them as we journey towards the Full Moon.

It is while the moon is growing that I will work on my full Moon ritual and what I would like to release after the full moon as she wanes in her never-ending cycle.

Until next time, enjoy your New Moon!

Another viewpoint!
