Goddess Saved My Ass (A Witch’s Perspective)

I was 17 years old.
I didn’t know that day that I might not make it to my 18th year.
After a boring day of high school, I walked to my parked car.

It was on a side street. I felt it was safer because some people damaged cars parked in the school lot.
I drove off and soon pulled up to an intersection.
The light turned green.
My foot automatically went to the accelerator.

But I felt a command, Don’t go.”

I dropped my foot to the floorboard.

Whoosh! A car roared through the intersection. It would have smashed my car and taken my life.

Thank you, Goddess!

After this, I have reflected on the lesson.

1. Make space to listen for the Goddess’s direction.

    When I was saved by the Goddess, I was a solitary witch. I was learning about Wicca and witchcraft.
    It’s possible that my being new to the Craft helped me stay open to lessons from the Goddess.

    Now, I keep a space to listen for the Goddess’s direction by talking to Her each day.

    Do you devote time to talking with the Goddess?

    Even 3 minutes may be helpful. We recall that “3” is a sacred number.

    2. Sometimes, the Goddess’s direction is surprising.

    I was surprised about the Goddess directing me to sit there when the traffic light was green.

    Percy, someone I know, failed to listen to the Goddess’s surprise direction. He was at work, and a co-worker brought in a homemade apple pie. He received a thought, “Do not have any pie!”

    He didn’t listen. He wanted to be “nice.” He had one bite, and a walnut shell in the pie broke his tooth in half!

    Have you ever had an intuitive thought that seemed unusual, but it could protect you?

    3. Pray to the Goddess.

    Here is a prayer you can use.

    My Gracious Lady of the Moon.
    Open my mind so I can hear You speak,
    Help me hear You so I don’t weep.
    Give me lessons that I can learn,
    So my life improves in turn.
    Open my eyes so I can see,
    The blessings You have for me.
    So Mote It Be

    May these insights support your path.

    Blessed Be,

    What I Learned During My Hospital Stay Plus a Surprising Insight from the Goddess

    “Isn’t it about the medical team gathering to help you?” my friend, Alicia, asked.

    “It is … and it’s not enough,” I said.

    I’m deeply thankful to the nurses and the doctors … and I do not have a definitive diagnosis at this time.

    “In truly understanding the Goddess and God, one comes to understand life, for the two are inextricably entwined. Live your earthly life fully, but try to see the spiritual aspects of your activities as well. Remember—the physical and spiritual are but reflections of each other.” – Scott Cunningham

    What did I learn in the nights in the hospital – that included screams coming down the hall?

    As I talked with the Goddess, I felt an internal shift that quieted my worries.

    Also, I realized that it’s necessary to stay strong in these areas:

    (I’ll use the Elements as a framework.)

    1. Air … keep your thoughts as clear as possible
    2. Water … gather support, express your emotions in healthy ways
    3. Fire … eat, and take in nutrition. You need energy (fire) to make good decisions
    4. Earth … stay grounded (sitting in the hospital bed, I prayed and talked with the God and the Goddess.

    May these insights support your path.

    Blessed Be,
    Moonwater

    The Real Way to Deal with “Accumulating Mental Garbage” (A Witch’s Perspective)

    I’m frustrated. See if you can relate.

    It took weeks to get a medical appointment for an MRI scan. Then today, medical team members of another department taped a heart-monitoring device on me.

    Poof! That threw away my MRI scan appointment.

    Grrrrrrr.

    It feels like a bunch of time wasted.
    New frustration.
    What can I do with this?

    “Uh, hello, Goddess, what can I learn from this?” – it’s a thought I had.

    [[Go with the flow. Surrender. Be grateful for what you have.]] – an intuitive thought that arose.

    Grateful for what?

    That my body works.
    That I’m still here with my husband, with my parents, and with my glorious cat, Magick.

    What?

    Earlier today, a car racing on the other side of the highway raced toward me. With its turn signal on.

    Well, the genius driving the car merged over, demonstrating that he would be making a turn. But he apparently did not know the turn signal was on.

    **An accident almost happened.**

    I AM grateful that no accident occurred.

    So I say,

    “Okay. Goddess, I AM grateful for every blessing.
    Help me empty the “can” of mental garbage.”

    Here’s a prayer you can use.

    Goddess,
    Help me empty the can of mental garbage I have collected.
    Open my eyes to all the blessings You give me.
    So Mote It Be

    “Live Into” Rather Than “Live Up To” (A Witch’s Perspective)

    Yeah, I flunked kindergarten. This made me into “compliant girl.” I had to live up to my parents’ standards about my grades and more. By the way, eventually, I was diagnosed as a person who has dyslexia.

    So, there’s that phrase “live up to.”

    As a girl, if I said anything original and an expression of my true self, I was chastised.

    Yes, these were the parents who dragged me to THEIR church.

    Recently, I had a conversation with a spiritual elder. The topic of “live into” versus “live up to” arose.

    We, Witches, are called to LIVE INTO the divinity the Goddess and God placed within us.

    We do not need to gain someone’s approval.

    Each one of us is a unique expression of that divinity.

    I remember one of my early boyfriends. I did not feel comfortable expressing my Wiccan spiritual path. So, I said nothing.

    Are you finding that you tend to “live up” to someone else’s expectations?

    What if you were free to “live into” your true spiritual path and destiny?

    Here is a prayer you can use.

    My Gracious Lady,
    Help me let go of others’ limiting expectations,
    Lord of the Greenwood,
    Help me live into my true destiny!
