Dear Ones,
Oh my goodness! How is it possible that with every ritual I just love you and our work even more. I guess, like the Ace of Cups, this is a fountain of love and inspiration that is bottomless. My favorite part was learning all the ways that you call beauty into your lives. And I feel like I could talk forever with you about how the Queen of Wands embodies that Libra/Aries energy to the max!
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, don’t worry if you don’t watch it on the full moon. There are so many nuggets of magical teachings in this ceremony, you’ll benefit from it no matter when you watch it. Scroll down for the link.
A few references:
The opening song was Ilumina Minha Mae by Marie Gabriella
The song during the meditation was Now I Walk In Beauty by sung in this version by Libana. I’ve heard this song is inspired by a Navajo Prayer but I’ve never been able to find the direct lineage for it.
The book I referred to with re: Aphrodite was Pagan Meditations: The Worlds of Aphrodite, Artemis, and Hestia by Ginette Paris.
Poem: There is some kiss we want, by Rumi. Sent to me by Katrina Siladi.
Tarot cards I used: The Tarot of the Holy Light by Christine Payne-Towler and the Thoth Deck by Harris and Crowley.
Ways to work with the spirit of this Moon:
Burn your beauty candle in the window so what you love can find you.
Journal about your experience tonight or any time further messages come up.
Pay attention to your dreams over the next few nights and write them down.
Make moon water, the moon water from this moon is especially potent for love, beauty, vitality, pleasure, and justice. To make moon water you just put water in a glass container and let it bathe in the moonlight on the full moon tomorrow.
Be sure to write your intentions down for the month so that you can check in with them during our next ceremony. Put them in a place where you can remember where they are.
Go out and sit and look at the moon for at least 5 to 10 minutes.
If you’d like to go deeper into the questions this moon brought up for you, feel free to book a 1-1 session with me. [Note that Founder’s Level subscribers get 10% off if you email guardian@oracleoflosangeles.com]
