Wordsmithing Magic from the Crossroads
Today is the beloved old holiday of Lughnasadh, sometimes called Lammas. It is the turning between Summer and the first stirrings of Autumn. Slowly, the dark hours are overtaking the light with equinox only six weeks away. Now we celebrate the harvest of the year, gathering in that which was planted in Spring’s hope.
Blessed Litha! Now we align with the ways of our ancestors, and join together to protect our descendants. On this day, we honor the height of the Light; we celebrate the ever-turning of the Wheel of Time.
Merry Meet! Today is one of the holiest, happiest, most beautiful celebrations in our sacred year! It is Beltane in the Northern Hemisphere (and Blessed Samhain below the equator). The veil between the worlds is most thin, and our ancient alliances with the Faery world, as well as Nature, are honored. May joy be yours.
The Wheel turns, the veils between the human world and the primal worlds part and fly open. Dance into the ancient enchantment. Blessed Walpurgisnacht! Merry May Eve!
Rejoice this happy day, when we dedicate to new magical studies, renew our devotions, undergo initiation, and, under the light of the Owl Moon, welcome the transformation of the Crone to the Maiden. For Imbolc is Life’s Promise: no matter what the ice and cold may deliver, Nature is bigger, stronger, and will triumph.
