How Witches Use a Nightmare or a Dream to Defend Themselves – Ep. 243
witchcraft
How Witches Answer the Goddess’s Call
“You were bullied?” my friend, Kassie, asked.
“Yes. Mercilessly,” I replied. My memories of this still cause me pain.
However, those experiences have given me great compassion for those who suffer.
The Goddess called me to know pain and to develop compassion.
I have three insights for you about Answering the Goddess’s Call.
- The call may include pain.
The Goddess called me to experience pain and to develop compassion.
Are you experiencing some form of pain now? Is it possible that the Goddess is calling you to know certain things even though the path is painful?
My friend, Fred, said, “I didn’t know what grief was until one of my friends committed suicide. Then I knew real grief.”
So, the Goddess calls us to be deeper as human beings. Sometimes, the path calls for enduring pain.
- Let go of unnecessary suffering.
The Goddess doesn’t want her children to suffer unnecessarily. She gave us good reasoning skills.
My friend, Kassie, makes good choices. Her father is abusive. She limits her time around him. She does attend certain important family functions. She knows that her father will give her trouble.
She attends because she is deciding her own path.
She limits how often she talks about her father. Why? She is choosing to guard herself and her friends from unnecessary suffering.
The Goddess wants us to answer Her call. She wants us to use the gifts she gave us…our magick.
You can use this gift to stop unnecessary suffering. By doing magick, divination, and more. Using the gifts She has given, we can move beyond unnecessary suffering.
- The act of doing is all about celebration.
Sometimes we have personal thoughts like: “I’ll be happy when I write the novel, and it’s a bestseller.”
“Expression is the Celebration.” – Tom Marcoux, author
From this quote, I realize that the act of living and creating is an important part of the process.
The Goddess calls us to get involved, express ourselves, and fully live our personal path.
For example, I make witchy crafts at home. I knit and do other forms of art and crafts. From oils to stained glass, I love to express myself.
What do you do to express the divine within you?
How can you devote some time and effort this week to express yourself and the creativity that Goddess placed in you?
May these insights support your path.
Blessed Be,

Meet the Goddess: The Relief from Anxiety Meditation – Ep 242
Embrace Compassion with the Goddess’s Viewpoint
Merry Meet,
Have you noticed so many people who are upside down? They don’t have any idea about compassion and strength that the Goddess describes. I remember The Goddess’s words “I give peace and freedom…My love is poured upon the earth…Let there be beauty and strength, power and compassion, honour and humility, mirth and reverence within you.” (from The Charge of the Goddess, The Goddess speaking – written by Doreen Valiente).
These people are toxic. They drain our precious energy. Have you found that you don’t feel you have the energy to do a proper ritual or even just get your projects done?
Something that helps me is this course about handling toxic people and raising your personal confidence. It’s called “Success Secrets: Confidence and Skills to Handle Toxic People.” (Disclosure: Tom edits some material for me on this blog.)
We, Wiccans, know that words can have magick to them. In “Success Secrets,” Tom teaches his “Instant Reframe” to release stress. He also teaches “How to Escape a Trance and Get What You Want” and a lot more.
Let’s all take good care of ourselves and each other.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater

How Witches Overcome Procrastination and Paralysis in Their Practice
“From seed to redwood tree,” I replied to my friend, Alicia.
Alicia constantly feels bad for not doing ritual and meditation every day. Alicia felt if she couldn’t do her practice perfectly, she couldn’t do it at all. This type of perfectionism kept her in a form of paralysis.
- Remember “From seed to redwood tree.”
The great redwood tree develops from a tiny seed.
So many things start with something small. Alicia can take small steps forward.
“Trip seven times, get up eight times” – Japanese Proverb
Managing to meditate once a week is better than nothing. Start small.
Keep pure your highest ideal; strive ever toward it; let naught stop you or turn you aside. – The Goddess in The Charge of the Goddess — as written by Doreen Valiente
The Goddess invites us to keep going.
- Observe that some scars diminish over time.
My husband has a scar on his left arm. A metal door at work tore a hole in his arm. It got badly infected. After some time to heal, the scar is beginning to fade.
See the process from the Goddess’s point of view. She knows that you have divinity in you.
She knows that you’re on a path of growing and adjusting.
My point is that what seems like it may never heal may take a significant amount of time.
Still, we can blossom from where we are.
- Ask Goddess for her help.
It’s important to move beyond “It doesn’t matter what I do.”
Take a small action. Moving forward is what matters. It all counts.
Here is a supportive prayer.
A Prayer
Goddess help me see my path clearly.
Guide me ever forward.
Let me learn my lessons.
Help me grow in my practice.
So Mote It Be.
May these insights support your path.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater

Witches: Develop Your Adaptability
My friend, Anna, moved in with her boyfriend. For the first weeks, she felt lost in the neighborhood. Nothing seemed friendly or familiar. Then she found a used bookstore. She was home!
Life keeps hitting us with things that we must adapt to or simply endure.
Here are three insights.
- You need time.
You need to hold space and time for your intuition. You can meditate and ask the Gods for Their guidance. The Gods are there for you. They can speak to you through your intuition.
If you are in an intense situation, help yourself by taking three deep breaths. Slowly in then out. This will give you time to pause. Then you can respond. In this way, you can adapt on the fly to the situation.
- You need answers to fuel good decisions.
Guidance, whether from friends, family, or the Gods, is crucial. To adapt, see if you can develop a form of road map of answers.
You can meditate and hear answers from your true self that is connected with the Gods.
You can also use divinatory tools for help. Consider simple questions like:
- What do I do next?
- What does the road ahead look like if I do ____?
- How can I best resolve the situation?
- What is a good action for the good of myself and all involved?
For more about divinatory tools, click here.
- Ask the Goddess for clarity.
Besides calling on the God and Goddess through meditation, you can use prayer.
Consider this prayer (or something like it):
Prayer
Lady of Moonlight.
Hear my prayer this night.
Help me adapt to all the barriers and troubles on my path.
Strengthen me and develop my skills to keep me bright.
Help me make decisions, for my good and the good of all involved.
So Mote It Be.
May these insights support your path.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater

Witches: Build Up Your Courage – Ep. 240

Witches: Build Up Your Courage – Ep. 240
Witches: “Don’t Miss Life and Unlock the Magick”
The lizard stood on the path in front of our door. My husband paused. Intrigued. He turned to announce the lizard’s presence to me. My husband glanced back. The lizard was gone.
There one moment. Gone the next.
What is gone from your life?
Are you embracing your life or are you missing it?
I have three insights for you.
- Focus and unlock the magick within.
“Magic is natural. It is a harmonious movement of energies to create needed change. If you wish to practice magic, all thoughts of it being paranormal or supernatural must be forgotten.” – Scott Cunningham
Magick, just like the lizard, can be fleeting. We cast our spells and hold them in our minds and then we let them fly. Gone from our grasp, to do their work.
Magick is also all around us. It is everywhere.
To use magick, you begin by raising energy. Some ways to raise energy include breath-control, singing, or dancing. Your body both serves as a conduit of energy, and it also produces energy.
Part of the process is to use your focus and will to send the energy where you want it to go.
Each witch is on a journey of discovering the self. You learn to unlock the gifts within you. The Gods support you along the way.
- See magick in everyday life.
“In truly understanding the Goddess and God, one comes to understand life, for the two are inextricably entwined. Live your earthly life fully, but try to see the spiritual aspects of your activities as well. Remember—the physical and spiritual are but reflections of each other.” – Scott Cunningham
We are of the Gods. The Gods manifest as the natural world. Everything around us is sacred. From trees to bees, we are truly one.
Imagine seeing as the Goddess sees. View what you do as sacred. Having your morning coffee is sacred. A romantic night is sacred.
I have noticed that I can adjust my focus. I can stand in line at the grocery store and turn my perception to one of gratitude. I have the abundance to get what I need.
How can you adjust your focus and find the sacred in everyday life?
- Invite the Gods to deepen your everyday experience of life and magick.
“That perhaps is at the core of Wicca—it is a joyous union with nature. The earth is a manifestation of divine energy. Wicca’s temples are flower-splashed meadows, forests, beaches, and deserts.” – Scott Cunningham
In our mundane lives, we see the sacred. To help you see these moments you can say a prayer like this one.
A Prayer:
Gracious Goddess and Honorable Lord,
Let me see my magick in things both large and little.
May I be one with You and the Universe.
Help me cherish the world around me and the world within me.
That I do not miss the fleeting moments and people in my life.
Bless me on my path.
So Mote It Be.
“Prayer—a common tool in many religions—is simply a form of concentration and communication with deity.” – Scott Cunningham
May these insights support your path.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater
