Prayer in the Darkness

At times I have shone so brightly,
But now I often feel like a mere shadow of my Self,
Wandering alone in a world of Night,
Watching life as through a dark veil.

Too long have I wandered here,
And yet, my journey is still not over.
There are still answers to find,
Dawn is not yet here.
But approaching.

I pray, Goddess, that You will lead me safely and swiftly out of the darkness.
I pray that You will shine a light on my path,
Let the warm breeze caress my face, in memory of the Beloved's touch.
I pray for guidance and strength, for courage to look into the dark mirror and face my Self, my shadow.
I pray for endurance during the longest night and for safe passage back into the light.
I pray for the knowledge that You are always by my side.

From darkness to light,
From night to day,
From death to life.
So mote it be.

Imbolc Lights

The Circle of Light is open here in Sweden. On a Dark Moon night, at Imbolc. I welcome this night, the transformative fire festival of Imbolc, celebrating the return of light. And we do see it, even here up north: the days are slowly getting longer, the sun actually brings a bit of warmth when she comes out, the rain is gradually melting the snow.

I welcome Bridget/Bridie in all Her aspects: sweet maiden, sword maiden, blacksmith in the forge of our souls, wolf maiden, warrior queen, prophetess, poetess, healer. 
May the Maiden Goddess touch my inner child, healing her wounds and giving her the courage to come out and play.
May Bridie's fires be kindled, and may She guide me gently as I walk through them to have the dross burned away, pounded away in the smithy, so that my golden core may shine through. 
May the kundalini energy begin to rise in my body, energy of awakening, white energy that brings healing. 
May Bridie bring Her healing power and clear my mind to free the creative flow and let me see more than meets the eye. 
Sweet Poetess, let my words flow as freely as my tears, and may they touch the hearts and minds of the people whose paths they cross with Your prophesises.
May the spirit of the Wolf run with me, fuelling my courage and strengthening the wildness of my being, and may the Swan carry me on swift wings to Avalon, touched by the Swan Mark.
Hail and welcome, Bridie!

February Circle of Light

The Circle of Light is held the first Wednesday of every month.
The next circle is on the 2nd of February.

The purpose of this circle is to connect us as a community and to connect to the Healing and Lifegiving flame of Goddess. To send a circle of healing light into the world. This is done in whatever way feels right for you.

The connection to the Circle of Light starts at 6pm local time and goes until 6am the following morning. Please light a candle and tap into the web of energy that we create with our participation. No matter when you connect, the presence of our collective spirits and Goddess will be there.

For the February Circle of Light, let us kindle the fire using the flame of Healing, the flame of Creativity, the flame of New Life, the flame of Love, and the flame of Avalon. Let us bring our pains and sorrows to the fire and there let them be transformed to Gold. Let our souls be healed and shine brighter, and stronger, with the light of the Great Mother, Creatrix of the Universe.

See in this Circle of Light an opportunity of Relase, and of Healing. It is time to leave the past behind, to learn and let go. This is your time, this is your new beginning. Walk through the fire and emerge stronger, and whole.

Join in this Circle of Light and le the golden light of your soul mingle with the energies of Avalon in the web we weave together. Shine the light of Avalon and let your light shine just as clearly!

Blessed be
