Book of shadows – first full moon ritual of the year

To me this felt like  my  first Yule  that i knew  SOME of the words i want to use and  how i want to do it.

I felt like i just passed a big test.   It  was about 30 min long.my longest  ritual so far.

I set up in plenty of time and i am getting ready for the next full moon and  lmbolc.

so I set up my grid  the week before and had it  DRESSED with oils and herbs and powders. I had all the things next to it  that i didn’t want anyone to see…. i was  really  ready.

I opened my circle by  Invoke the deities.  I followed Fox’s ritual format until i got to Bridgets Isles…of  Lewis.  the ???lowlesh (?) stones…  and i sat there and  did  what the ritual was about for me….and let those entities  do what i asked them to do.

I felt  like i was leaving my body  for a few seconds and i could feel  hands on my body.  I could see the outline of the spirits around me….thru my  closed lids.

I sat there for  maybe  15 min and then started to  say ty to the deities and closing.

I dont know  what I  thought  I expected  but it sure was a great feeling,  a great  learning experience and mostly  a  great  healing  transformation.

I gotta go do my next  one for the  waning moon….i love  finding  new  ways of healing me and others.

BABY STEPS  but glad to be learning.
