When Friends Leave and the Gods Open a Door

Have you seen friends abandon you because of your Wiccan faith?

Three former friends come to mind.
They’re gone.
I miss them.

But then I realize this question: “What will I dwell upon?”

Imagine the Goddess was here to coach me.
She might say, “Moonwater, let this go. It’s all right.”

Or…

The God might coach me with this comment: “Who cares? Let them go.”

Well, let’s look at that “Who cares?” part.

It reminds me: “Does caring about the people who chose to leave my life help me at all?”

We’re talking about how we experience our daily life.

If I think about the former friends whose prejudices led them to leave … it won’t change anything. Except it drains my energy. Thinking about them makes me feel bad.

But I could dwell upon a completely different idea.

When a friend chose to reject me due to Wicca, they closed a chapter of my life. A chapter that had them in it.

One thing is: A “fair weather friend” leaves … and my schedule opens for other people to come in.

Okay.

Here’s a prayer you can use:

Lord and Lady,
Help me not dwell on the doors that shut in my life
And help me heal from the loss of the friends who leave.
May I dwell in your Divine Shining Light.
So Mote It Be

May these insights support your path.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How You Can Experience the Profound Moment (A Witch’s Perspective)

Warm energy. Pure love. Total approval and kindness. The God and Goddess were with me. The most profound moment of my life.

Still, I have had glimpses of this Divine Energy in my daily life, too.

How? It’s when I make a shift from a limited, mundane view of my present moment.

You can shift to the Divine Level. I have three insights for you.

1. Get into the Flow of the Universe.

    Some people look at the world through the lens of “it’s only my happiness that’s important.”

    This doesn’t ring true to me. Helping people and creating joy in others is a gift. Spreading joy around is important. 

    “There is only one happiness in this life: to love and be loved.”
    – Amantine Lucile Aurore Dupin (known as George Sand)

    2. Avoid an emphasis on “separation.”

    Have you had a moment of “This will make me happy”? Were you thinking about a dessert or a new piece of clothing?

    Stuff can be fun.

    And yet…

    “Happiness shared is happiness doubled.” – Swedish Proverb

    I’ve learned that my path is elevated when I connect with others. Humans, animals, and more.

    Perhaps, you’ve felt a certain joy when giving a gift to a loved one.

    We, witches, know that we’re connected.

    The birth and rebirth of all nature,
    The passing of winter and spring,
    We share with the life universal,
    Rejoice in the magical ring.
    – Doreen Valiente

    I realize that the Three Time Laws also works to our advantage. Give and be kind and the blessing returns on you three times.

    3. Let go of “It’s not perfect yet.”

    Do you know someone who is never satisfied with anything or anyone?
    I find myself on edge and not feeling “satisfied.” It’s like a reflex. I probably got it from my mother.
    Still, I take this awareness into my meditation. It helps me shift to another state of being.

    “Misery might love company, but so does joy. And joy throws much better parties.” – Billy Ivey

    I’m grateful that I got a smile from this quote. On Thanksgiving Day, I’m visiting with my parents – and also my friends. I recall the classic idea: What you focus on grows.

    “Happiness is already there. It is within us. We have just forgotten it and need to remember it again.” – Socrates

    The God and Goddess want us to remember that They placed divinity within us. It is who you are.

    Each of us is a representation of the God and Goddess. We all have a piece of Them within us.

    When you get stuck in “it’s not perfect yet,” ask yourself: “How would the God and Goddess view this?” They see the big picture. What is that? It is the reality that we live in both the mundane world and the Divine Plane.

    So if a friend calls when it’s inappropriate, you can shift to the Divine Plane and realize the blessing of having a kind soul as your friend.

    May these insights support your path.

    Blessed Be,
    Moonwater
