Two Etsy Treasurys in One Day!

I have been included in two etsy treasurys, whoo hoo. I am feeling the abundance.

Aphrodite, Goddess of Love and Abundance

The seasons they are a changing. I have been in a heart break slump for a few weeks. I asked Aphrodite for help a couple of days back. She can be very generous in healing the heart and opening it up for new possibilities. The results of my request have shown up for my healing through my amazing resources of community.  First I was gifted tickets for the Pleasanton Highland Games and was fortunate to have the entire weekend to be with my "peeps". I love my extended family and our "taste tests". The Farquharsons are generous in heart and spirit. I also rode the "Dicken's" out of my penny farthing, swerved a bit after the second taste test. Throughout the day I pounded the earth Celtic style to the drum beats of Brother, a band from Down under. They were at Faerieworlds 2010 and I couldn't have imagined that their set would lift me higher than before. Listen to them as soon as your little ears can seek out their didg', drums and pipes. Another band that inspired me to thump and writhe was Albannach. I've seen them at the Fringe, Edinburgh in years past and was thrilled they'd made it across the pond. Their drumming is so intense that my hips have become double jointed, LOL!. 

Then today, I awoke and found that abundance had reached me here on the home front.

I was included in a treasury on etsy today, whoot whoot! http://www.etsy.com/listing/25995155/treasury-item-eye-of-sauron-fire-opal?ga_search_query=fire%2Bopal&ga_search_type=user_shop_ttt_id_5376328

Clearing your Path under the Full Moon

The August 2010 full moon is the smallest, farthest full moon of the year. It lies more than 252,000 miles away, in contrast to the moon’s average distance of about 239,000 miles. For more information on the full moon this evening please visit http://earthsky.org/tonight
The name of this August full moon is the Green Corn Moon. This is a perfect time to perform a simple ritual for clearing your path of unwanted obstacles that you have been treading over for some time.

If you can join in a circle then you will perform this together. If you are a solitary practitioner, spread a circle of salt around you and stand within. Take scraps of paper and write the negative thoughts that are holding you back, whether they be about yourself or others you have relationships with. Then burn those pieces of paper while declaring out loud how you choose to see yourself as a loving, powerful, present person. Thank the Goddesses of the moon for your connection to your highest self. That is it! I hope you feel inspiration in the practice of this simple ritual.
If you ever want to discuss full moon folklore, rituals and mythology please feel free to contact me here or on either of my facebook fan pages, rainasvintageattic, rainadelmagick
