Hail and Greetings!
With the 2nd Quarter Moon in Taurus, we’re going to concentrate on our comfort, peace in the home, and harmony. The Moon is exalted in Taurus which can make the day a glorious one! Begin with your Morning Braucherei Ritual, and then move on to today’s challenges!
Main Challenge: Your Sacred Space/Altar — today is the day to clean off your altar, organize your magickal supplies, and re-connect with the earth and your spirituality. Wash it down with empowered water — consider adding rosemary, lemon and lavender or hyssop to the sacred formula. As you work, allow yourself to be filled with the harmony of the universe. Take several deep breaths, moments of pure peace, seconds of joy! Your altar can be the heartbeat of your living area — is it skipping beats? Slowing down? Simply whispering? Add some music while you work! Shake it, baby! Shake it!
Perhaps you would like to create a secondary altar today. One specifically designed for the season or for this program. You could create a Mother Candle by starting with a blessed pillar candle, allow it to burn for a few hours, then light a second, smaller candle and put it on top of the pillar, allowing the wax from the first candle to seat the second. Over time, as you burn the second candle, it will melt down over the first. When you feel the need, add a third candle, seating it in the hot wax of what is left of the second candle. In this way you can create a centralization of power that you can light at any time for any magickal purpose wherein you make petitions to “The Mother”. You could build a Divine Sage candle in the same way, or Horned Lord, etc.
Prep for Tomorrow: Jupiter, the planet of benefits and expansion, turns retrograde on Monday. Many years ago I learned to create a Jupiter talisman to protect the wealth in the home throughout the retrograde period, because I discovered that if you don’t do something to secure your wealth during this time, it can slip away. For this easy spell you will need a clean jar and the highest denomination of paper money you can afford at this time. You will also need red thread and the talisman that I’ll provide tomorrow. You may also like to use a green or brown candle.
Secondary Challenge: De-Clutter Day. Get everything up off the floor that doesn’t belong there. Stuff strewn everywhere creates blocks in your life as the energy around you can not flow freely. Observe where the worst mess gathers. Consider how this “place” is associated with your life at this moment. Once you have cleared the clutter, be firm in keeping it clear (which is part of the challenge). Since today is all about your comfort, make an effort to work with the focus of your comfort in mind rather than just clearing it to “get it done”.
Begin A Rewards Program — For every task you complete, give yourself a gold star or draw stars on a calendar. The more stars you have at the end of the week the better! At the end of the week, count your stars and give yourself a fair reward! For example…all the stars possible? Treat yourself to a dinner out, or buy that purse you’ve been eyeing, or give yourself time to do what you love to do! Half the stars? Congratulate yourself! Life has been busy and you managed to get a lot done! Watch a favorite movie, spend time creating something fun and rewarding!
What earns a star? If you keep up with the Morning Braucherei Ritual — you earn one star each day. If you throw something out each day — you earn another star. If you complete the main challenge each day — you earn a star. If you complete ALL the challenges each day? You earn perfect stars! Each day I’ll let you know how many stars you could possibly earn for that day.
