Goddess Talks to You Through an Inner Voice (a Witch’s Perspective)

/ Moonwater / 5 Comments

Damn! I hate medical appointments that require me to get up at 5 AM.

My father had a cyst on his back.

It turned out to be healed. No procedure required.

I was pissed… Sleep lost. Time lost.

But then a different part of me rose up and gave me a different perspective.

You might be surprised. It was my Inner Crone. She said, “Appreciate the blessing. Your father is healed. And, go with the other medical provider so you can pick an appropriate, timely appointment.”

So female witches go through stages. Also, you probably heard of the 3 Aspects of the Goddess: The Maiden, Mother, and Crone.

Well, I’m no fan of the crow’s-feet near my eyes.

But then my Inner Crone says, “Those are the signs of the gifts of smiling and laughing.”

Then, I said, “Okay. I’ll take them.”

What would your Inner Wise Voice say to you?

“To these [witches], will I teach that which is yet unknown.” – The Goddess, in The Charge of the Goddess – as written by Doreen Valiente

I realized that the Goddess can teach us through our Inner Crone. How great is that?!

May these insights support your path.

Blessed Be,

How You Can Change What the Universe Delivers to You (A Witch’s Perspective)

/ Moonwater / Leave a comment

“Aggh. My stomach. Pain…” my friend Alex said.

It was the combination of fiery hot food and too much diet cola that gave him a gut punch.

The next day, Alex avoided both. No stomach pain.

Simple enough. Right?

Not if you’re addicted.

How many of us are addicted to declaring certain bad ideas and outcomes, as if that’s all we’ll ever experience in life?

Your words hold power.

Basically, you’re declaring your present and future with the words you express—all the time. If most of your words are fear-focused, guess what you get? Lots of fear-based moments.

Sure. There are predators (in human form and more) in this world.

The good plan is to learn to protect yourself … and that starts with what you say, what you plan … and how you take action.

For example, I have practiced certain self-defense moves (and took some training, here’s a link for Model Mugging). I even lift weights. In this modern society, these practices are as essential as reading.

Here is a chant you can use.

Goddess, I deserve Your Love.
I deserve to be safe.
I step forward into my better and better life.
So Mote It Be.

May these insights support your path.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

Overwhelmed? (A Witch’s Perspective)

/ Moonwater / Leave a comment

“What would you quit?” my husband asked me.

That question had me pause.
In the culture, even in a coven, no one asks: “What would you quit?”

Why?
Because “grit” is good.
“Pleasing people is good.”
“Being all you can be” is good.
Really?

What if the art of life is choosing what to quit and what to elevate?

What would I quit?

If I could, I’d quit worrying about what other people think of me.
I’d quit worrying about whether “I’m disappointing my parents.”
(Now, wait a minute. I am their private Uber. Grocery service. Doctor appointment executive assistant … and more.)

What about you?

Realize if you quit something that is not essential to your well-being, you get a gift.

What?

How about personal energy?
How about some peace?
How about some time?

So, what would you quit?
(I’ll wait. You can write some ideas on your device.)

Goddess does not require you to be “perfect” – “pleasing” – and someone’s full-time assistant.

What does Goddess want?

She wants you to be strong. To talk with Her. And … she wants you to be happy.

Sounds good.

May these insights support your path.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How Witches Know What Inner Voice to Listen To

/ Moonwater / Leave a comment

“I knew I should not have done that!” my friend, Alma, said.

She had the intuitive thought of not eating a slice of a pie made by a co-worker.
Alma broke her tooth on a walnut shell that was in the slice.

Have you noticed that we seem to have different “voices” in our thoughts?
One voice could sound like: “I’m so stupid! There you go again. Trusting the wrong people.”

Another voice may say: “Good work. That took courage and insight.”

How can we distinguish the voice we are hearing (inside ourselves)?

  1. If it’s something that is hurting your life, you know it is NOT the Gods.
  2. If it’s something that is constructive, it is often the Gods.

Here is a prayer you can use:

Goddess,
Guide me to distinguish Your Voice.
Help quiet the voice of my own fear and ego.
So More It Be.

May these insights support your path.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

Witches Know That Money Is Not Wealth – A Real Money Spell

/ Moonwater / Leave a comment

“Money is not wealth,” my friend, Irma, said.
“What?”
“Money can represent wealth. Wealth is about abundance. You can have abundance in terms of good times with friends, good health, and good peace of mind,” Irma concluded.

I reflected on this and how many of us, witches, focus a lot on money spells.

At one point in my life, I noticed that I did not do money spells.
Why?
Perhaps, I did not feel that I deserved good treatment and the ease that money may provide.

Here is a simple Money Spell that may ease your burden.

This spell should be done on a waxing moon.

  • A green candle
  • “A check to yourself from the Universe”*
  • Cauldron
  • Money drawing oil
    • Money Oil (You can make your own by adding drops of essential oils together, like the example below)
      • 3 parts ginger
      • 2 parts orange
      • 4 parts pine
      • 2 parts cinnamon
      • 1 part cedarwood
      • 5 parts jasmine (optional)
  • matches or a lighter

* We create a check from the Universe by writing the amount we want and writing “from the Universe for the Good of All” in the memo section on the check.

Warning: ONLY work this spell during the waxing moon. (Waxing means going toward full moon)

Cast Circle in the usual manner.

Dress the green candle properly. (That is, dab your finger in the money oil and rub the candle repeatedly from wick to base—until the whole candle is covered in money oil.)

As you dress the candle, envision money flowing into your life.

 Light the candle and chant the following out loud:

As I light this candle so,
Make my money grow and grow,
Let it flow without rhyme or reason,
Each and every turn of season,
Filling up my pockets so wide,
Let me enjoy this happy ride,
Make me stronger than the ocean tides,
Manifesting my will to coincide,
With no malice, woe, or hitches,
May there be no mess or jinxes,
With no need of fear of ruin,
Let it rain money, bless my journey.
An it harm none, so mote it be!

Now hold the “Check from the Universe.” Light the check via the candle and place the check in the cauldron to burn safely.

Watch the flame as it burns the check.

Meditate while focusing on the flame of the green candle.

When you are ready, place the green candle in a safe place and let the candle burn completely out. [Do NOT leave an unattended candle. Stay safe.]

Cakes and Wine Ceremony

Close the Circle.

The above spell has worked for me. I had difficulty receiving appropriate checks, and things cleared up. I was grateful!

May your journey be prosperous and happy.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

Open the Door to the Goddess’s Embrace (a Witch’s Perspective)

/ Moonwater / Leave a comment

My parents dragged me—as a little girl—to Sunday church service. Often, the church leader would talk about how wretched the people in the chairs were. They had to be wrecks so they would need to be “saved.”

I could feel my head shaking. Even at eight years old, I knew this was not my group. This was not where I belonged.

Over the years, I’ve learned that a primary way to feel the divinity the Gods placed in you is to go to the place of “letting go.”

— to let go of limiting beliefs

— to let go of needing approval

— to let go of needing to fit in with the “in-crowd”

— to let go of the narrative that one is born innately inadequate.

Instead, I learned to shift to a space of wholeness.

When I communicate with the Goddess, I feel on two levels. My awareness opens. And, I feel embraced. Yes, I feel this hug on the physical level.

Would you like to make a daily time, perhaps when you awaken, or before you sleep, so you can open the door to the Goddess’s embrace?

May these insights support your path.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

Beltane 2025

/ Moonwater / 2 Comments

Sunflowers

Sunflowers

Happy Beltane to all! May you be blessed with the season’s energies.

Beltane

To our ancestors, Beltane celebrates the beginning of summer. Bale or “bon” fires are an important part of the Beltane Sabbat. All fires at home or in shops were extinguished and then re-lit from the sacred bonfires that blazed on the tops of the surrounding hills. This was also the time when the herds were blessed. The people marched their cattle around and between the bonfires to bring good luck and fertility and to protect them during the year.

The Sabbat Beltane, coincides with when the God actually impregnates the Goddess. This sacred act ensures the continued fertility for crops and animals throughout the light half of the year (between the Spring and Fall Equinoxes.)  A popular symbol for this sacred act, the May Pole represents the impregnation of the goddess. A May Pole is a pole set erect in the ground with ribbons attached on the top. People then each take a ribbon and dance in a weaving pattern around the pole. The pole represents God’s phallus and the colorful ribbons that the dancers wind around the May Pole represent the goddess with her flowers a-blooming. And so the impregnation of the Goddess is fulfilled.

Blessed be,

How to Savor the Moment and Living Now (a Witch’s Perspective)

/ Moonwater / Leave a comment

My feelings of frustration had me seeing plaid.

All I wanted to do was get out of the home and begin my metal detecting adventure. Meanwhile, my sweetheart was completing a function in the online course app he was using.

He asked that I cue up Chappell Roan’s performance of “Pink Pony Club” (at the 67th Grammy Awards) while he completed his task and got out of the online course app. (He creates online courses.)

Then, his eyes went wide.

“So, you want to skip watching Chappell Roan’s performance and get out to the wooded area—now?” he asked.

“Yeah.” (Wasn’t that obvious?)

Later, I reflected on savoring the moment.

1. Shift your schedule.

The plan was to watch a 4-minute video on YouTube. But my sweetheart correctly assessed that, in my frustration, my experience of the music and performance would be tainted.

So we turned off the TV set and left to travel to the wooded area.

2. Pause and assess if this is a moment to “savor.”

After I did some metal detecting and digging around, I was doing the routine of putting the tools away. Then, I paused. This was a moment to be present with the breeze, the swaying tree branches, and squirrels running around.

Here is a prayer you can use:

Goddess help me savor special moments in my life.
May I wrap myself in the warm moments of the past,
As I look forward to blessed future moments.
So Mote It Be.

May these insights support your journey.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

Design Your Life Instead of Fall into Default (a Witch’s Perspective)

/ Moonwater / 4 Comments

Every morning, I use a small table to do my ritual … unless the night before, some stuff was left on the small table. Then it’s like the table has radiation. And, I fail to do my ritual.

Researchers talk about “willpower fatigue.” The idea is that if there is a block of some sort, many of us just will not do our “chores.” We lose our willpower. That’s why so many people exercise in the morning and not after work … when they’re tired.

How about you? Do you make prayer, ritual, and meditation a priority?

I remember a professor who had a cylinder container. He asked the college students, “How much can fit in here?”

He put big rocks in first. Then, he asked his students, “Is the container full?” Then he poured gravel in. He asked again, “Is it full now?” Then sand. Finally, water.

The point I get from this is … we, witches, would do well to make prayer, ritual, and meditation the “big rocks.”

Remember that prayer, ritual, and meditation are the foundation of your spiritual practice.

May these insights support your journey.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

Are We Entering Another Burning Times?

/ Moonwater / Leave a comment

“I can’t believe what President Dumbdumb just did,” one of my friends said.

“I know. I can’t buy eggs, anymore,” my other friend Sarah said.

“And it looks like there is going to be legislation against certain spiritual paths,” my friend said.

I reflected on this.

During the Burning Times, what did our ancestors think about such awful circumstances?

I considered that we must do what we can and hold strong in faith.

Here is a prayer you can use.

Goddess,
Help me endure like my ancestors did.
No matter what stupidity or viciousness I and my brothers and sisters shall face.
The Gods are with us!
So Mote It Be

May you stay surefooted on the path.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater
