Goddess Loves You Enough so You Can Do Hard Things
“No, I don’t think I’m strong enough to move on from this hell I’m in,” my friend, Amy, said.
“If you realize that Goddess loves you, and you do the things so you can feel Her support—you can do the hard things in life,” I replied.
Here I’ll share three points.
- You are not alone.
The God and Goddess are always with you. You can call on Them to help you through the tough times in your life.
“Keep pure your highest ideal; strive ever toward it; let naught stop you or turn you aside.” – Doreen Valiente, speaking in the voice of the Goddess – in The Charge of the Goddess
Sometimes, it feels like everything in the world is trying to stop you from your desired goal. At those moments, look beyond the mundane world. Call on the Gods for Their support. Ask the Goddess, in Her nurturing aspect, to help you and guide you on your path.
- Goddess is the Loving Form of Deity.
“Nor do I demand sacrifice, for behold I am the Mother of All Living, and my love is poured out upon the earth.” – Doreen Valiente, speaking in the voice of the Goddess – in The Charge of the Goddess
The Goddess has explained that she doesn’t demand that you sacrifice your desires or dreams for Her. She wants you to be happy. The Gods don’t want us to suffer.
- Sometimes, we get the answer of Light, having gone through a time of darkness.
“The dark and the light in succession,
The opposites each unto each,
Shown forth as a God and a Goddess,
Of this did our ancestors teach.” – Doreen Valiente – in The Witches Creed
If we don’t have the hard times or dark times in our lives, we can’t fully appreciate the light parts. In one discussion, one of my friends emphasized that an important part of happiness can be feeling relief after a dark time.
When we see the good times stand out from the dark, we truly appreciate the good times when they arrive.
The dark times can be a powerful form of teacher. Dark times teach us certain lessons we need to learn. When the Light finally arrives, the Light illuminates our progress through those lessons.
We need both times of Light and dark to grow into our full potential and full destiny.
May these insights bless your life.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater

Wiccans, Invite Goddess to Help with Your Depression
“It feels like I’ll never shake off this horrible, low feeling,” my friend, Melissa, said.
We were in the middle of a conversation about depression symptoms. I have worked for years to cope with my own clinical depression symptoms. I’ve learned you can live a good life even with such symptoms.
Research Shows that Helping Someone Can Lift Much of Depression Symptoms.
Why?
I’ve experienced certain benefits, which quiet down my depression symptoms.
Benefits of Helping
You realize …
- You have value
For example, when I help someone, I feel as though I have a purpose. I feel like I can make a difference in someone else’s life—that I can be a valued part of the community.
- You have relieved suffering for someone else
Sometimes, when you just listen, you’re relieving someone’s suffering. You’re providing space so the other person can unburden themselves.
- Your attention shifts away from your suffering, and it is now on the task at hand—to help this person
Pause for a moment. Why do many of us like movies and TV shows? Because we can unplug from our own problems and disappear into the fictional world of the film or TV show.
When you help someone, you’re plugging into another person’s world.
A Bonus: Research shows that helping other people relieves the helper of vague guilt-feelings.
How Do We, Wiccans, Invite the Gracious Goddess to Guide Us related to Helping?
For many of us, the questions are: Who do I help? What would be something good for me to do?
The Gracious Goddess can help with you finding answers.
You can call on Her just before you go into a meditation session.
Here’s a Prayer to Give You Strength to Help Someone
Gracious Goddess, give me strength to lend aid,
To those who feel downtrodden and afraid.
Gracious Goddess, open my heart up wide,
Let me see the truth inside.
Blessings I give, and those bestowed,
Now dry all the tears that have flowed.
Let my deeds help those in need,
Gracious Goddess, help plant that seed.
As I So Will
So Mote It Be.
May these ideas and practices give you real support.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater

Witches Expand Your Perceptions Ep. 19
How a Witch Manifests a Great 2019
“Could I use witchcraft to fulfill my New Year’s Resolutions?” a friend, Sara, asked.
“Witches do have an advantage in fulfilling their resolutions,” I replied. This is good news because there are reports that 80% of people fail in their resolutions by February.
Did you make a New Year’s Resolution?
Witches have a better chance at accomplishing their resolutions because we have magick and the God and Goddess on our side.
Here is a simple spell to help you realize the accomplishment of your New Year’s Resolution.
What you will need:
- Parchment or virgin paper
- Tinted ink that matches your intention (an example is red to get things moving)
- Quill (or an appropriate tinted marker)
- Caldron or fireproof container and surface
What to do:
Cast circle as usual.
Bless and consecrate your items (paper, marker [or ink and quill])
Write your resolution on the paper. Hold the paper in your dominant hand and think of what you want to accomplish with the resolution. Pause and consider the experience and the benefits of manifesting your resolution. Imagine and feel the positive feelings.
Once you have your mind firmly on the outcome of your desire, ignite the paper on the working candle and drop the paper into the cauldron to burn completely and say:
Lord and Lady,
Inspire and make manifest
All the best
That I desire
Fuel the fire
So I experience what I hope for,
Blessings evermore
Do the Cakes and Wine Ceremony.
May this spell help you achieve your goals and bless your life.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How Witches Can Get Their Inner Critic to Shut Up
Do you beat yourself up emotionally? Perhaps, you’ve heard of the Inner Critic.
I have an Inner Critic. She is loud and sometimes in charge. So many times, this Inner Critic not only whispers in my ear but screams at the top of her lungs.
Sometimes, she says, “You’re no good.” Other times she says “You’re too fat … and too stupid.” Too often, this Inner Critic flings me into an overwhelming hopeless feeling.
Maybe, you can relate to this?
One time, when I was feeling particularly down, one of my friends said, “I get it. You have clinical depression symptoms. I’m just wondering if you have some part of you that stands to the side. A part of you that is not caught up in self-hatred. Do you have an … Inner Nurturer?”
What about an Inner Nurturer?
Before that moment, I had never heard this idea, Inner Nurturer. Just imagine, a part of yourself who is on your side. Your Inner Nurturer holds your hand through the tough times.
Maybe, my Inner Nurturer is mirroring what the Goddess would say to me.*
I was intrigued by this Inner Nurturer idea. So, I asked my friend to continue. He said, “It could be like this: Your Inner Critic is like a cup of inky water. And, the Inner Nurturer helps you by filling the inky-water cup with clean spring water. Over time, the ink runs over the edge of the cup, and you’re left with the clean spring water.”
How Can We Fill Up with “Clean, Spring Water”?
I thought about my friend’s story and realized the Inner Nurturer is the Goddess and God.
We reach the God and Goddess through meditation, ritual, and prayer.
Many times, I have let the Inner Critic run my mind. The solution is for me to connect with the God and Goddess more often. More times for meditation, ritual, and prayer. Then, I can banish the Inner Critic—even for a short time.
May these ideas support you on your journey.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater
