Dear Ones,
OMG, what a treat to see you all tonight. I could’ve stayed talking with you all night. What felt especially powerful to me was that you all have so much beauty and brightness to offer the world. We shine as bright as a thousand suns! We make a beautiful universe! I love to make magic with you!
Thank you so much to everyone who attended the ceremony, and a special bow to you new comers. We’re so glad to have you and the witches welcome you.
You called it the Ripe Apricot Moon, the Horny Hummingbird Moon, the Cicada Song Moon, the Tomato Moon, the Sea Anemone Moon, the Coming Home Moon… we delighted in your moon names, and delighted that we got to celebrate this moon together.
Note: You can watch the video whenever you need it.
If you weren’t able to make it to the ceremony live and are watching later, you can watch it on the Full Moon, or later if you need to. There are so many nuggets of magical teachings in the ceremonies, you’ll benefit from it no matter when you watch it. Scroll down for the link.
A few references:
Opening Songs from tonight were from my Radha-Krsna Nama Sankirtana by Alice Coltrane
We also sang “Turn the World Around,” by Harry Belafonte.

NEXT STEPS
Write your statement out as a petition and place it on your altar.
Note: Statement text in the Journaling Section below.
Each day, you will burn one of the eight segments of the candle. (We carved whatever you want into the candle - your intention, sacred symbols, the name of your guardians or gods, etc.).
Note: If you loved Rune’s Lion Candles you can grab one for yourself (and a whole bunch of other cool magical candles besides) at Theyfriend Candle on Etsy.
EVERY MORNING...
....go out and face the Sun, calling in its light and courage through the crown of your head. Read your petition out loud.
