How Witches Take Ownership of the Transitions in Their Lives

Have you recently gone through some type of transition that was rough?

I’ve noticed myself and friends going through transitions at this time. Often, it feels like one is a piece of cork buffeted on the ocean.

Then, I realized that, as witches, we can choose to make the meaning of our transition. Transitions happen to everyone. And as witches, we can make these situations more profound.

Sometimes, a transition can cause us to wonder: “What does this all mean?”

Here is a prayer for helping you squeeze the meaning out of a transition—as if it were a metaphorical orange.

A Prayer During a Time of Transition

Magnificent Lord and Gracious lady,
Let the meaning of this [transition] be revealed.
May this transition cause me to be healed.
Breathe in the love and exhale the hate,
Let in the message to invigorate.
Stich by stitch I now make myself whole once more,
Sewing myself together whole to the core.
Growing through this transition through and through,
Finding my true self through this journey, too.
Thank You for all the blessings.
So Mote It Be.

May the above process support you on your life path.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How Witches Make Space for Simple Pleasures

Have you been busy recently and that has crowded out taking time for simple pleasures in life?

Simple pleasures can include slowing down, sipping, and enjoying a latte. Or relaxing outside with a good book and some wine or tea.

“…all acts of love and pleasure are My rituals. And therefore, let there be beauty and strength, power and compassion, honor and humility, mirth and reverence within you.” – Doreen Valiente, writing in the voice of the Goddess, in The Charge of the Goddess

Goddess gives us a whole spectrum of simple pleasures to consider.

Here are three insights:

  1. Open your awareness to a simple pleasure

I like taking a ritual bath. I’ve noticed that I have not made space for it. Soaking in water also causes skin difficulties for me, which would require me to take extra steps to protect my skin. My point is that I need to start with awareness and make space so I can take the time to focus on my needs and to connect with the Gods.

  1. Learn and rehearse saying No

If you’re constantly saying yes to other people, you won’t be able to fit in something that means a lot to your heart.

Lacey, a friend, always used to say yes when people asked her to do things. Because of this, she never had time for herself, and she ran herself into the ground.

Learning to say no is a good thing, and it’s part of setting healthy boundaries.

Setting boundaries in how you use your time and energy can help you save yourself from grief and trouble.

You could say something like: “That sounds like it’s a good project. My plate is full at this time. And I’m taking better care of myself. So, I’ll have to say no to participating in your project.”

Witches can realize that when you say no to one thing, you open your ability to say yes to prayer and ritual so you can communicate with the Gods.

Saying no helps you free up time for your own sanity. You can do meditation, ritual, or simply rest and just be—in the moment.

  1. Schedule time to be present with the Gods

Imagine communicating with the God and the Goddess. You can do this with meditation, doing ritual, or doing some sort of service in Their names.

You could volunteer, perhaps, at an animal shelter. This can be doing the work of the Gods, which can bring you into a closer relationship with Them. Or perhaps, you’ll take a walk in a park or somewhere that you can enjoy nature. The Gods are present with you in nature.

Each day, I devote myself to a short meditation session. That’s when I relax and talk to my God and Goddess about the day’s activities. I even ask for guidance.

Simple pleasures provide us with valuable support we need.

Imagine that you were supporting your best friend. You would likely say, “You love taking a ten-minute break with your latte. You deserve it. In fact, when we talk on the phone after your latte-break, you sound full of life. It’s worth it.”

Simple pleasures also help you show up better for your time to honor your Gods. The Gods placed divinity within you. They want you to support the divine flame in you. Ask Them for guidance about the blessed opportunities for simple pleasures in your life.

May these insights support your journey.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How Witches Find Balance that Makes the Difference

Meditation

What is most important to you?

Have you, like me, been shaken up by the coronavirus and the unrest around the world?

Every day, I ask myself, “What is most important?”

Recently, a friend told me about his distinction between values and virtues.

I understand a value as something that is important. For example, I value my relationship with my Gods. I value my sweetheart.

Then, we talk about virtues. I want to demonstrate the virtue of patience toward my husband.

I strive to be of service—so I’m focusing on the virtue of service.

Recently, I was reading the 13 Principles of Wiccan Belief as assembled by the American Council of Witches.

We recognize both outer and inner, or psychological, worlds—sometimes known as the Spiritual World, the Collective Unconscious, Inner Planes, etc.—and we see in the interaction of these two dimensions the basis for paranormal phenomena and magickal exercises. We neglect neither dimension for the other, seeing both as necessary for our fulfillment. – The Fifth Principle of the 13 Principles of Wiccan Belief from the American Council of Witches

So, let’s look at this Fifth Principle in the light of values annd virtues. Witches value the spiritual plane, mundane plane, and magick.

This phrase “We neglect neither dimension for the other, seeing both as necessary for our fulfillment” points toward a virtue. I see that virtue as balance.

What Does This Mean for the Everyday Life of a Witch?

As witches, we can strive for balance with the spiritual and mundane sides of life. We walk between the worlds, and so, we have the power to manifest our desires. We have tools that other spiritual paths do not. We have spells, magickal elementals, and the Gods who help us.

Some spiritual paths appear to neglect the mundane or earthly side of life.

On the other hand, witches understand nature in its fundamental parts and how such parts work together. This helps us fulfill our desires and needs.

The Path of a Meaningful and Happy Life

Because of all the stress from the coronavirus and unrest in the world, I look to center myself and to create balance in my own life. A focus on both values and virtues gives me guidance on how to lead my own day.

I work with these questions:

  • How do the Gods see this?
  • How can I focus on service and balance today?
  • How will I make sure to complete my daily meditation session?
  • When will I take my daily walk?

May these insights support your journey.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How Witches Connect to Goddess’s Secret about Life Lessons

“Another freaking learning experience!” my friend, Sara, said, disappointed. “Why are life lessons so hard? I’m tired. I don’t want any more tough lessons,” she said.

During this conversation, a thought arose in my mind: Goddess wants us to be strong and happy.

“I am the Gracious Goddess, who gives the gift of joy unto the heart.” – Doreen Valiente, writing in the voice of the Goddess in The Charge of the Goddess

The Goddess is gracious, and she wants us to be happy. So, she gives us gifts. What gifts? Strength, joy, love, courage, happiness and more.

Perhaps, we don’t like the wrapping paper around the gifts, which are the life lessons. We must go through the wrapping paper to get to the gift.

The life lessons help us grow; and ultimately, they help us experience happy moments. I say moments because we notice that life is ever-flowing.

Perhaps, like me, you’d like to see the nugget of happiness in the gift. That can be hard when you’re feeling miserable in the moment—in the middle of a life lesson.

Here’s a helpful prayer.

A Prayer

Goddess,
Help me see the light in the darkness
To know that life lessons are the springboard to my happiness,
To know Your gifts of love and strength for me.
May I see that each rung on the ladder of lessons provides
The path to eventually give me peace, strength and above all true happiness.
So Mote It Be

May your life lessons bring you true happiness.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How Witches Rise Above the Mundane World of Pain and Suffering

Free Yourself From Limitations

Does day-to-day life feel like it’s running you down? We, witches, know the mundane world has a large amount of suffering and pain. Just watch the evening news, and you can see it all. How can we heal in such a world?

This is when I think of the Goddess. Let’s look at The Charge of the Goddess by Doreen Valiente.

“If that which thou seekest thou findest not within thee, thou wilt never find it without thee.” – Doreen Valiente, writing in the voice of the Goddess, in The Charge of the Goddess

 The Goddess invites us to let go of looking to the mundane world for our inner peace and fulfillment.

This also reminds me of another quote:

“If you want to be happy, be.” – Leo Tolstoy

 The Gods put Their divinity within us. So, looking within is where we need to go for answers.  The Gods speak through that divinity within us to help us grow. We need to slow down, perhaps, for a meditation session or a prayer. We need to pause and be. Then we become aware of our inner divinity that Goddess placed in us. To be happy, we can pay attention and let our inner divinity shine.

 “In truth, there is only one mind.” – Erwin Schrodinger, Nobel Prize-winning Physicist

The God and Goddess have placed Their divinity in us. Pause for a moment. Let that sink in. We are connected with the God and Goddess. All that is good and uplifting is the one mind we share with the God and Goddess.

A Prayer

Goddess,
Help me feel deeply
That I am not finite
That You placed Your Divinity in me
That my soul rise above the mundane
And soar to the infinite joy in myself and You.
So Mote It Be.

May this process bless your journey.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How Witches Release Themselves from Body Type Shame

Are you, like me, feeling pressed down by the media stereotypes about beauty and an appropriate body type?

When I talk about body type, I make a significant distinction between what is healthy and the garbage of media stereotypes, showing fashion models who are actually physically sick and are too skinny.

We, women who are pagans, intellectually know that Goddess delights in many body types. However, the overwhelming pressure from the media to look in a certain, stereotypical way causes so much pain and suffering.

Let me express this from my heart. My own mother is morbidly obese, and she has serious suffering connected to her diabetes. She only walks short distances in the home, and she grunts in pain with every step.

Seeing my mother’s plight, I realized that I had to do something about how I exercise and how I connected with Goddess. I had to develop a way of eating so that I could stay healthy and avoid getting diabetes. With the help of spiritual elders, doctors, psychiatrists, and other professionals, I devoted myself (and a circle of team members working tens of hours) to create my online course Goddess Style Weight Loss.

At this time of Black Friday sales and all the commotion about these offers, I had some conflicting thoughts. But then I realized I had seen so many of my pagan friends running out of breath as they walked around at annual pagan events.

So, we’re talking about developing healthy habits so that you can support this wonderful temple—the body that the Goddess has given you. I took the inspiration that Goddess gave me to create my online course Goddess Style Weight Loss. And I am grateful that at this time of Black Friday sales that I’m able to, with udemy.com, create a coupon so that you can get this course for a dramatically reduced price.

How Witches Shift Away from Mundane World Lies

Does the mundane world feel overwhelming at times?

Here is a prayer to help you reconnect with the spiritual reality that the Gods support you every day and every minute.

I am loved in this moment Prayer

Lord and Lady,
Give me the experience to know
That I am loved in this moment.
To know that I am cherished and
Held dear to You.
Let me know I am cradled in Your hearts,
And release me from fear.
Although the mundane world tears at my sense of worthiness,
Keep me close in Your love.
Guide me to always remember Your
Embracing love for me.
So Mote It Be

How Witches Use Time Management So They Connect with the Gods

“What’s most important to you as a witch?” I asked my friend, Jessica.
“To connect with the Gods,” she replied.
“You look concerned,” I said.
“I’m just not doing it. I’m not showing up for ritual,” she said, frowning.
This began an important conversation.

I’ll share three insights here:

  • The distractions and obligations of everyday life can strangle your spiritual practice.

Fear can exacerbate the situation. That is, many of us are buried in fear-inducing problems with the job, the kids and more. We live in a chaotic world. Not knowing what to do can stifle or even completely stall your spiritual practice. So many of us say, “I just can’t find the time.”

When you pause, you can realize that even just five minutes of meditation can calm you down and clear your thinking. That’s how a spiritual practice can be a lifesaver in the mundane and chaotic world.

  • Gathering with your Coven will give you a safe space for ritual.

When I am with my coven, I feel deeply supported. We support each other and raise each other up. We are a strong group. Being in a coven is having a chosen family.

This family can encourage your spiritual growth. This can be especially good if you don’t have a supportive family at home. If you gather with your coven, someplace outside your own home, you can find it to be an oasis from your mundane surroundings.

  • Pick your morning or evening as your sacred time.

I had a conversation with a friend who is a time management expert who authored three books on the topic. He noticed that time management is not really about lists, it’s about making great choices.

Have you noticed that your only “free time” is in the morning or at night before you go to sleep? You may want to choose one of those times as a designated sacred time. Mornings may work for some better than others because one can be fresh from the night’s rest.

However, if you are a night owl, you may prefer evenings.

I find that evenings seem to be the time I can spare. It may be better for me in the morning, but, at this time, I find that doing a brief meditation session (with my husband) before bedtime helps us both.

Don’t wait to have only an “ideal time.” Three minutes in your parked and locked car (someplace safe), may be helpful. You could recharge before going into your home for “family time.”

Remember, time management is about making great choices.

Choose to connect with the God and Goddess. Even a daily 5-minute meditation practice may truly brighten your life.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How Witches Connect with the Feeling of Wonder and Awe

“Oh, I don’t want to turn into my mother,” my friend, Anna, said.

“Anything in particular?” I asked.

“She’s so bitter. I even think she’s bored,” Anna replied.

During our conversation, I found myself thinking about a central choice we can make: fall into bitterness or stay open to new possibilities in life.

Here are three helpful insights:

  1. Looking at nature brings you in connection with the Gods

When I feel down and even feel a little bitter about life, I look to nature to reconnect with the Gods. When I look at a tree, I don’t just see a tree. I see a fellow being, traveling on this plane of existence.

It’s like a big neon sign saying that the Gods are here. They embrace me in feeling awe.

Think about it. Look at a leaf on a tree. It has a vascular system where nutrients flow into the tree. Each cell is working in harmony with the others, just like cells function in our own bodies. It is the blueprint of life; it is the blueprint of the Gods.

The tree is of the Gods. You and I are of the Gods.

  1. Listening to Music opens moments of connection

Take a moment to recall your favorite song or tune. Perhaps, this music fills you with energy or it’s just so beautiful that it takes you to a fragile moment.

We notice that music can invoke feelings of wonder, joy, sorrow, awe and more. When I listen to my favorite artists, they create a whole palette of feelings to paint my soul with. Such tones inspire an orgasmic plethora of emotions. With music, you can flow with the ecstasy of the God and Goddess.

  1. Opening the Door to Your Intuitive Flow

As an artist, I find that flow, is the Gods expressing joy through me. That sacred connection is the God and Goddess expressing Their life force through me.

Even if you do not call yourself an artist, you are creating every day. You create a flow of activities. You find some way to fit in people you care about while you fulfill the obligations you have. You create and participate in life.

You even create the situations that bring you some good feelings—perhaps, pulling together a good mix of friends for an enjoyable meal. Notice that when you make space for your intuitive flow, the Gods guide you with gentle nudges.

May these ideas open new pathways for you.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How Witches Find the Gods Within

On a camping trip with friends, I had a surprising, spiritual experience. One afternoon, I told my friends that I was going to take about an hour to have quiet time by myself. I walked about fifty yards away from our campsite. Alone, I heard a gentle rustle of trees in a gentle breeze. As I sat in a beautiful grove of redwood trees, I decided to talk to higher power (I was not Wiccan yet.) So, I quieted myself down, breathed in the mossy fragrance in the nice cool air, and put out my intention. Then … I felt this Presence. In my mind, I could sense the presence of The Horned Lord.

I wasn’t expecting this at all. I wasn’t afraid. All I felt was compassion and love.

Are you intrigued about having a direct experience of the Deity?

Here are three key practices to help you approach and achieve this connection.

  1. Meditation

Meditation can bring us down deep to our inner world. We can explore the workings of our subconscious mind. Through that door, we can meet the God and the Goddess. In Doreen Valiente’s Charge of the Goddess, she writes in the voice of the Goddess and says,

And thou who thinkest to seek for me, know thy seeking and yearning shall avail thee not, unless thou know this mystery: that if that which thou seekest thou findest not within thee, thou wilt never find it without thee.

In this excerpt of The Charge, we find a key insight: We find the Goddess and the God within ourselves. And the tool witches use to go within is meditation.

  1. Diet

Having a healthy body is also important to help find the Gods within ourselves. Eating from and of the Earth is the healthiest way to do this. I have written on this with my book, Goddess Style Weight Loss   I also offer a modest priced (during Udemy’s discount hours) online course Goddess Style Weight Loss at Udemy.com.

When you eat in a mindful way and do the rituals I share in my online course, you enhance your personal energy. This is a great way to facilitate how you connect closely with the Gods.

  1. Exercise

Did you know that a fit body helps one meditate? How? Sometimes, we get distracted and forget that having a healthy circulation system assists in brain health.

Wiccans know that having a fit body can create a lot more energy than the feeble attempts with an ill body. Our body is a temple to the God and the Goddess. Having it in good running order honors Them. And eating healthy food and getting appropriate exercise is part of having a fit body.

I’m using the words fit body with care. Wiccans know that having a model’s body (significantly thin with ribs showing) does not equate to health.

Our body is our vehicle. We keep it tuned up for our travels to the Gods.

May these insights be helpful for your journey.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater
