What if you need to shift to calm in a stressful situation? (A Witch’s Perspective)

“When are you calm during the day?” a friend, Alicia, asked me.

“Usually when I first wake up in the morning. Before the weight of the day crashes down on my shoulders,” I replied.

Alicia wasn’t expecting that answer.

Meanwhile…

Lidia, someone I know, works in retail. She’s noticing that more and more customers in recent weeks have been saying rude, impatient things. Downright mean insults.

Lidia needs to stay calm – or lose her job.

I asked her, “Do you have some way to hold your calm?”

Lidia said, “Every day, I have a 3-minute ritual in which I purposely shift to calm.”

“Each of us must find our ideal way to attune with deity.” – Scott Cunningham

Here is a ritual you can use.

Own Your Calm Ritual – Invite Goddess

Light a white candle and say these words:

Goddess,
As pure as light, may Your calm wash over me.
May I bathe in this candle’s blessed light.
Thank You for peace, calm, and strength.
So Mote It Be!

May these insights support you.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

The Witch’s Path to “Stronger Than a Habit”

“You look frustrated,” my friend, Susan, said.
“Got that right,” I replied.
“About…?”
“I just can’t get in more meditation sessions,” I said.

Later, I reflected on this.
So, we hear that improving our lives is just about adding a habit. (As if that were easy.)

Ever put in a new habit and in 47 days—poof!—the habit is gone?

Frustrating, right?
What’s the answer?

It’s not just a change of habit.
It’s a shift of identity.

Robert Rodriguez, the film director, said that he would throw out his back every time he made a film.
He asked Sylvester “Sly” Stallone how he managed to stay strong and athletic.
Sly said, “Get a personal trainer.”

But then, Robert had a revelation. Yes, it was good to have the support of a personal trainer. AND, he needed to shift his identity to “athlete.” Then it was about “what does an athlete do?”

We, witches, can choose layers to our identity.

I can choose and say firmly, “I AM a meditator.”

In fact … I’m taking a pause …

Now, I am back.

Guess what I just did?

I did a brief meditation session. Why? “I AM a meditator.”

What identity would you like to add to your practice as a Witch?

Here’s a prayer.

Goddess, show me the way to transformation.
Guide my actions on my desired path.
So Mote It Be.

May these insights support your path.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How Witches Change Their Awareness

My cat shares my Diet Coke … well, he licks the condensation off the bottle.

But I can tell he likes being part of what I’m doing.

I get him toys, but it’s the Diet Coke bottle that he likes!

I reflected on this.

I have a particular insight for you.

Be open to little things. And, your awareness changes your experience of the next day.

Recently, my friend, Irma, faced a lot of pain. She wrenched her back. She had an earache, sore throat, no energy, and chronic pain in her shoulder.

Instead of only focusing on pain, Irma chose to rest up and then find moments to talk with friends on the phone.

These moments lifted her spirit.

Here is a prayer you can use.

Goddess,
Open my eyes to the precious little things in life.
Shift my next moments to joy and peace.
So Mote It Be.

May these insights support your path.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater
