TONIGHT, WE STAND UNDER A FULL MOON, IN THE MUTABLE AIR SIGN OF GEMINI’S TERRITORY - OUR ATTENTION IS FORCED TO MEGA-INFORMATION SHARING - HOW WE COMMUNICATE - EMOTIONALLY, MAGICALLY, CREATIVELY AND PHYSICALLY. ADD THE FORCE OF TONIGHT’S LUNAR ECLIPSE - WE NOW FACE A WIND SHEAR OF NEW INFORMATION BEING DOWNLOADED INTO OUR CONSCIOUSNESS - BOTH PERSONALLY REVEALING AND FUNDAMENTALLY GROUNDBREAKING. (IF NOT, HEARTBREAKING.)

chapter 5 review
WE ARE, IN FACT, BREAKING NEW GROUND, AND FINDING NEW HEART - BECAUSE AS WE SHIFT THE WAYS WE COMMUNICATE, WE ALSO SHIFT HOW WE RECEIVE NEW INFORMATION, AND PERCEIVE OLD INFORMATION.
SOUL ENLIGHTENING BREAKTHROUGHS, ON TOP OF HEARTBREAKING REALIZATIONS ARE SERIOUS LIFE EVENTS, THAT DEMAND, OUR FULL ATTENTION, CARE, AND DILIGENCE - IN TERMS OF OUR PERSONAL RECOVERY TIME, AND EXTENT OF TRAUMA.
WHEN WE ARE IN THE ACT OF TRANSFORMING THE WAY WE COMMUNICATE OUR THOUGHTS AND EMOTIONS - OUR MAGICKAL ENERGY REQUIRES SPECIAL CARE AND CONSIDERATION, BECAUSE OUR EMOTIONAL/MENTAL ENERGY AND MAGICKAL/CREATIVE ENERGY ARE BRAIDED TIGHTLY TOGETHER.
FOR THIS REASON, IT IS BEST TO STEP AWAY FROM TRADITIONAL FULL MOON SPELL WORK DURING THIS PARTICULAR FULL MOON, AS THE ENERGY IS TOO CHAOTIC, NO MATTER YOUR SIGN. IN FACT, EVEN IF YOU ARE DOING THIS COURSE IN ORDER, BUT ARE WEEKS BEHIND, THE SEVEN WONDERS IS DESIGNED TO FOLLOW, AND ANTICIPATE EMOTIONAL WAXING AND WANING EVENTS, INDUCED BY THE RECOVERY ASPECT OF THE PROGRAM ITSELF.
SO PLEASE, EVEN IF YOU’RE A SEASONED PRACTITIONER, REFRAIN FROM ANY SPELL WORK FOR THE TIME BEING…OTHER THAN THE TASKS OF THE SEVEN WONDERS, ASSIGNED THIS WEEK.
WE ARE GOING TO CONTINUE THE EXPLORATION INTO OUR PREVIOUSLY UNKNOWN IDENTITY, AND NEW EMERGING TERRITORY - THAT WHICH WE HAVE BEEN DISCOVERING & RECOVERING ALL ALONG, THROUGH THE PRACTICE OF THE SEVEN WONDERS
IN FACT, THIS FULL MOON IS ALL ABOUT OPENING NEW DOORWAYS, ALTERING COURSES, (BE IT EMOTIONAL, LIFE CHANGES OR BOTH) …AND LEARNING TO NOTICE, AND TRUST SYNCHRONICITY.
LAST WEEK, IN CHAPTER 4: THE SEVEN WONDERS OF ABUNDANCE, WE RE-EXAMINED OUR ATTITUDES AROUND WITCHCRAFT AND THE DIVINE. SORTING THROUGH OUR SUBTLE PRECONCEPTIONS, THE RESULTING ATTITUDE LIST IS A BLACK AND WHITE ACCOUNT OF OUR CORE BELIEFS.
WHEN WE ARE FACED WITH OUR OWN PRECONCEPTIONS, WE BEGIN TO HAVE AN “UNEASY” FEELING THAT PERHAPS WE’VE INVESTED SOME (IF NOT ALL) OF OUR FAITH INTO SOMEONE ELSE’S OPINIONS, EXPERIENCES AND EXPECTATIONS. WHEN WE BEGIN TO QUESTION OUR FOUNDATIONAL BELIEFS, IT DOESN’T TAKE MUCH TIME TO IDENTIFY WHERE THE WEAKNESSES ARE. IF SOMETHING LOOKS AND FEELS TOO FLIMSY, CHANCES ARE, IT’S TIME TO EXAMINE, AND PROBABLY REPLACE IT.
WE ALSO TENDED TO SOME HOUSEHOLD AMENDS, BY NEUTRALIZING RESIDUAL RAGE OUR BELONGINGS MAY HAVE PICKED UP FROM US. AS I SAID AT THE TOP, OUR EMOTIONAL/MENTAL ENERGY AND MAGICKAL/CREATIVE ENERGY ARE BRAIDED TIGHTLY TOGETHER. OBJECTS, IN GENERAL, DO NOT HAVE THE ABILITY TO DEFLECT ANGER…OR ANY STRONG EMOTION FOR THAT MATTER…BUT THEY CAN RETAIN, AND REACT TO, EMOTIONAL ENERGY. ESPECIALLY FROM A WITCH, OR A HIGHLY SENSITIVE/HYPER-ENERGETIC PERSON. WHEN WE AMEND AND ANIMATE THE ENERGY OF THE STICKS AND STONES THAT MAKE UP OUR BELONGINGS AND HOME, OUR TERRITORY BECOMES MORE “LIVABLE” FOR US. MORE THAN THAT, OUR TERRITORY BECOMES A DYNAMIC VOICE, THAT TELLS US HOW WE ARE DOING, HOW WE ARE FEELING, AND HOW WE ARE LIVING.
AS OUR AMENDED TERRITORY BEGINS COMMUNICATING TO US AND THROUGH US, OUR BOUNDARIES START SPEAKING UP, IN SHORT ORDER, BECAUSE… THEY, TOO, HAVE BEEN NEGLECTED, ABUSED AND VIOLATED.
DECIPHERING THE LANGUAGE OF OUR BOUNDARIES… KNOWING WHERE OUR BOUNDARIES “ARE COMING FROM,” FIRST REQUIRES WE KNOW WHERE THEY ARE. THAT IS SOMETHING MOST OF US HAVE A HARD TIME WITH….BECAUSE OUR BOUNDARIES TEND TO MORPH IN PROPORTION AND LOCATION, RIGHT ALONG WITH OUR SENSE OF SAFETY…THEY ARE HARD FOR US TO PINPOINT, BECAUSE WHEN WE MAKE A CALL OUT TO THEM, WE GET AN ECHO EFFECT BACK…”WHERE ARE YOU?” WE YELL…”I’M OVER HERE…I’M OVER HERE…I’M OVER HERE” RETURNS FROM SEVERAL DISORIENTING LOCATIONS.
MANY TIMES, IT’S SIMPLY BECAUSE WE DON’T KNOW WHAT, OR WHO, TO LOOK OUT FOR. AS WE TRAVERSE THE PATH AND TERRITORY OF WITCHCRAFT, WE BECOME MORE AWARE OF THE JOYS AND REWARDS OF A MAGICKAL LIFE. BUT WE ALSO BECOME AWARE THAT THERE ARE THINGS WE NEED TO WATCH OUT FOR.
WHEN I FIRST MOVED TO SANTA FE, I LOVED TAKING LONG WALKS IN THE ARROYO…SAGEBRUSH, HIGH DESERT WILD FLOWERS THAT INSPIRED GEORGIA O’KEEFFE, A CROW I’VE BECOME QUITE ATTACHED TO—ALL AGAINST THE BACKDROP OF THE SANGRE DE CRISTO MOUNTAIN RANGE, WHICH CHANGES IN MAGNIFICENCE AND BEAUTY WITH THE SHIFTING LIGHT…CINEMATIC SUNRISES, AND AWE-INSPIRING MOON BREAKS…BUT I ALSO KNOW THAT THERE ARE COYOTES, A BREED OF RATTLESNAKES THAT DON’T HAVE RATTLES…MOUNTAIN LIONS, BEARS AND WOLVES…IT’S PART OF LIFE IN THE SOUTHERN ROCKIES, AND SOMETHING WE WHO LIVE HERE, UNDERSTAND AND WATCH OUT FOR.
AS WITCHES, WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND OUR TERRITORY. TONIGHT, WE SHARE TERRITORY WITH THE FULL MOON . BUT NOT ALL CREATURES WHO SHARE THE MOONLIGHT WITH WITCHES ARE SAFE. OUR BOUNDARIES NEED TO BE LOCATED, AND RE-SIZED, BASED ON THE SIZE AND NATURE OF THE THREAT.
THIS WEEK'S LESSON-
LAY OF THE LAND: ENERGY VAMPIRES, DEMENTORS, FALLEN ANGELS, GRAYS & SNAKE OIL
THAT LITERALLY COULD BE A TRAVEL AD DISCLAIMER FOR SANTA FE….ALONG WITH THE WILDLIFE WARNINGS I MENTIONED EARLIER.
