Beltane 2016

Light the Bale fires, Summer has come! And that's exactly what I plan on doing with the wife tonight, setting up a fire in our fire pit (which she dug and built by hand just for me), and giving our offerings to the God and Goddess.

Handmade with love, the fire pit my wife created for me

As solitary practitioners, and busy business woman, we seldom have time to plan and host big celebrations these days. This however doesn't stop us from still taking time out to honor special days and Sabbats. Tonight we will burn offerings and prayers to the Mother Goddess and the Great Horned God for the year to come, as well as offer gratitude for the blessings we have already received in our lives.

Beltane is the biggest of our holy holidays, and with the world around us celebrating Halloween, indirectly they are sharing and celebrating this very Pagan holiday with us. 

I would also like to wish our friends up in the Northern Hemisphere, a very blessed Samhain.

Tonight is also a New Moon. We are surrounded by powerful energies right now that will really be auspicious for any new projects you may be considering starting. So maybe today, take some time to think about your next new project that you will dedicate yourself to starting from tomorrow. Cast spells for new beginnings, and offer gratitude for the blessings you wish to receive in the coming days and months.

I personally have a few new projects I'm planning as I follow the ebb and flow of time. This is such a good time for change, harness the energy while it's available to you, throw away any excuses you may have and begin on a brand new path!

A male nursery web spider that came by for a visit on Sunday morning, his female counterpart popped around on Friday evening but she was a bit too stressed so taking pictures were difficult, he however was very tame and seemed to enjoy the attention just a little

On a side note, we were visited this weekend by two gorgeous, large spiders. I always see these things as a blessing, the Spider Goddess is my matron deity. She is a Goddess of creativity and the arts, these visiting spiders were for me a sign of blessings from her, especially for the creative projects I have just recently begun. The energies of change and creation are definitely in the air!

I wish blessings to everyone, may the year to come be filled with abundance and prosperity, but most importantly, may you honor your true self and your true path in all ways.

Reading for the Week

This week's card is taken from  The Rider Waite Tarot 

Three of Swords

You may be experiencing pain or trauma from a past experience (new or old), although it is a time for moving forward and change, remember to be kind to yourself too.

Don't ignore your past issues, deal with them and heal from them. Allow yourself to acknowledge them, but also find a balance. Move forward despite your past, don't let it hold you back.
