Support So You Rise in Your Practice (A Witch’s Perspective)

January 6, 2026 / Moonwater / Leave a comment

When I started in the Craft, I was a teenager.

I felt ugly, fat, and alone. I couldn’t even imagine wielding any power.
My brother continued to call me ugly and fat to my face and his friends.
I wished my parents would corral their precious firstborn.
My mother, in her anger and prejudice, ignored my pain.

Years later, I would suspect my mother had undiagnosed depression. She still won’t see a mental health professional.

Recently, a new thought came to me.

As teenager and a new witch, I was miserable.
What?! Someday, I could effectively move natural energy?

Now, years later, an image arose in my mind.

Think of natural energy as droplets of water.
A witch new to wielding magick may move these droplets of water one at a time.
Through diligent practice of witchcraft, these droplets may unite into a crashing wave.

Then, I thought…

Where would I like the united droplets to flow in my life?
Perhaps they could be a soothing, peaceful lake in my life.

How about you? Where would you like energy to flow in your life?

Here is a prayer you can use:

Lord and Lady,
Water me gently.
My power gathers.
Soak me thoroughly,
And my power grows.
I wield my power in waves,
To capsize sorrow’s boat, so I heal.
So Mote It Be.

Remember: The God and Goddess have placed divinity within you.
It is natural for a witch to move energy.

May these insights support your path.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

Sleepless with Regret or Shame? Goddess Is Present (a Witch’s Perspective)

September 2, 2025 / Moonwater / 2 Comments

It happened again. I thought about something I regretted. It looked like I wouldn’t get sleep.
Then I shifted my thoughts. I brought an image to my sleep-deprived mind.
I am floating in the ocean. Peaceful.
The waves softly flow.
The Ocean is Goddess.

Eventually, I fall asleep.

Later, I reflected on this.

Here are two definitions:

“Regret is an emotion. It’s a negative emotion in that it’s an emotion that makes us feel worse, not better. And it’s an emotion that’s triggered when we think of something from our past and wish we had done something differently, done something in a different way, not done something, taken an action, not taken an action.” – Daniel Pink

“Shame is the intensely painful feeling or experience of believing that we are flawed and therefore unworthy of love and belonging.” – Brené Brown

Whoa! Stop!

Goddess put divinity within us.
We ARE worthy of love and belonging.
We belong to the Goddess.

I remember this quote:

“Do the best you can until you know better. Then, when you know better, do better.” – Maya Angelou

So I need to shift from regret to reflecting on what I may want to do differently in the future.

Here’s a prayer you can use.

Goddess,
Let Your waters of love caress and flow within and without me.
Let my shame and regret be washed from my mind, body, and soul.
Soothe me, nourish me, and heal me.
So Mote It Be.

May these insights support your journey.

Blessed Be,
