Signs InThe Middle Of Confusion

It's been a while since I posted. A lot has been happening recently.

First of all, in the plan to move I put all pf my eggs in one basket. I had a mew place lined up, but unfortunately it won't be ready until November, so I am staying with my Dad and stepmom for a few weeks. I'll pay them room and board as well as help them with the things that they can no longer do. 

This isn't a problem because I love both of them very much, and sitting in their back yard in the early morning and in the evenings is a witch's dream come true. 

For a little while, I have wavered on my path. For some reason I wasn't feeling the call of Wicca, so I was going back into Christianity. It doesn't always feel right, but I had the thought that it was where I should go.

Yesterday while in my hometown ( where the coolest new age shop is) with my dad and stepmom at the American Legion supporting an event, we sat down at one of the wooden tables to eat. I don't know what made me look down, but when I did, I saw a pentagram carved into the wood. 

I was mesmerized! Here I was surrounded by the images that always makes me turn back to the path-the river where I would meditate and  commune with nature and in fromt of me and my family was the SYMBOL of the path I have been working on. I couldn't take my eyes off of it.

Christians would say that this was put there to test me, but I know that this was actually a reminder of who and what I am supposed to be. I know that the universe is telling me that the reasons I hesitate with beong Catholic is because I am a witch in my heart and soul. I cannot deny who I am.

I somehow ended up with the Rune of wisdom in my pocket this past Friday before I began hauling things into my storage unit. It is a clear sign of what the final months of this year should be for me.

Blessed be!

Happy Labor Day!

 Today is a day to celebrate the end of summer and the beginning of fall and the beauty that it brings to us, including the beginning of school.

Soon we will see Samhain, I can't wait! 

Every holiday that comes through the fall and winter brings hot apple cider and nostalgia. 

Memories of the past mix with the new memories that we are making today until the day comes when we move onto the Summerlands.

Today is also the day that we celebrate the worker and unions. I  hope that those who are struggling to find work will find it soon, and those who have a job have pride in what they do.

Everyone have a safe, healthy and fun day today!

HAPPY LABOR DAY!!

Connecting To Nature

 With the changes the world is going through to get to Mabon, I am feeling a strong desire to spend more time connecting with Mother Nature. 

I feel the nostalgia strongly these days.  I want to go back to the way the world was when I first learned about Wicca and witchcraft. 

I miss the places I went to connect with nature as I learned how to harness my energy and see the fae and all magickal beings. 

There was a park that I went to that I would spend time growing in my spiritual path. I could walk, commune with nature and feel peace. I miss it.

I know that there is a place where I can go now that I can do the same, I just don't go as often as I used to. I haven't had the motivation to go, mostly because people actually bother you when you go and there isn't any peace because if you are a female there, men want to hit on you or people are loud and obnoxious. There are also homeless people there using it as shelter.

It looks like I will have to find a time to go when I can find peace, but that is kind of hard sometimes.

I am still planning my Mabon celebration, I am excited. I want to work on myself and being more connected to nature. I want to work on how I handle living and people. 

I want to free myself completely of the negativity at my job since I will be working there for a very long time now that I have completed another goal for this year.

I have finally accomplished another goal-I finally set up my 401k at work, and putting money in my savings every week, I feel like I am one step closer to what I want to do. I am starting to feel more at ease with my financial situation. I feel that one day soon, I will not only be able to move, but to save to get my license back and a car. I can also save for a vacation.

One more step closer to what I need to do in 2020! How awesome is that?! Thank you Goddess!!

Blessed be!

To Be A Witch

I was looking through Pinterest today searching for ideas, inspiration and correspondence on Mabon today when I found this wonderful picture on what it is to be a witch. It is absolutely beautiful!

Blessed be!

The Celtic Connection And Mabon Resources

 Whenever I look up information on Wicca, Witchcraft, or anything related to magick, I always have a great "Go-To" web site, Celtic Connection.

So today I wanted to share their page on Mabon. It provided wonderful information:  https://wicca.com/pagan-holidays/mabon.html

The Celtic Connection has been around for a very long time, and is full of wonderful information and a shop that has great things.

I began the plans for Mabon, and since I want to make this a special celebration, I will use as much information as possible to do so.

Blessed be,

Raven

Happy September 1

The first day of  September is here!!  

I love September!!  Labor Day and Mabon are coming.  You have to love a bank holiday that gives you a three day weekend AND the first day of my favorite season: FALL!!

Normally, it is the beginning of the school year, but for the moment, we are doing things a bit different until the world can heal. It is still a time of pencils, books, and learning.

I can't wait to start to see the Autumn colors and celebrate the time of change.

By the end of the month I will have a new home and a new journey to take. I cannot wait for that either. I am ready for the next steps in my journey away from where I am.

This month will also bring new adventures in finances, this will help with my future. It will be nice to do more positive things with my life. I want to have a little bit of money in my pocket for the future.

The goals for September are to move, start a 401k at work, celebrate Mabon, and to save more money for my move and for the future.

This month will also be a month of purging, cleaning, working and preparations...and hot apple cider!

Happy September fellow magick beings!

Blessed be
