On Mabon, the Fall Equinox, you may want to honor abundance and shift your consciousness from one of lack to one of abundance. It is the time of year where we activate our new growth cycle. As we become silent and rest we are allowing space for our greater vision to emerge. All of our broadcasts are offered completely FREE but you can TIP ME at https://www.paypal.me/bernardalvarez TO PARTICIPATE from your home in the ceremony you will need some incense for "smudging" and a small candle (preferably a tea that will burn out quickly) and a fire-safe container (cauldron or ashtray will suffice), a small piece of paper and something to write with.

I made this for the Grey School Water's Lodge Spring moot. I hope you enjoy it. The Hero’s Journey was originally formulated by American writer Joseph Campbell to describe the typical character arc of many classic stories, particularly in the context of mythology and folklore. The original hero’s journey contained 17 steps. Although the hero’s journey has been adapted since then for use in modern fiction, the concept is not limited to literature. It can be applied to any story, video game, film or even music that features an archetypal hero who undergoes a transformation. Common examples of the hero’s journey in popular works include Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, The Hunger Games and Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone.

"All acts of love and pleasure are my rituals." - Goddess Charge We in the West have a bit of a puritanical outlook when it comes to sex. Luckily, most pagans and magickal practitioners embrace human sexuality as a beautiful human expression. And, while Pagans abhor predatory or coercive sexual acts, sexual behavior among consenting adults is rarely frowned upon. Sex magick is any type of sexual activity used in magickal, ritualistic or otherwise spiritual pursuits. Broadly, sex magick involves channeling the energy created during sexual arousal to manifest any desired outcome.

May 1 is Beltane in the Northern Hemisphere and on that day we honor nature’s oldest love story. Beltane means bright fire, and in earth-based traditions, it represents the symbolic marriage of the God and Goddess and their eternal embrace.

JOIN THE COMMUNITY at https://bernardalvarez.com/grove According to ancient lore, the two have been separated all winter long, and their glorious reunion on Beltane is celebrated with food, drink, and multi-colored maypoles to symbolize female energies wrapping themselves around the male form. The entire world comes alive with new life and bright colors to celebrate this union of the Divine Feminine with the Divine Masculine. This holiday is a celebration that honors the divine balance in the union of masculine and feminine. Having reached maturity after their long, wintry separation, Lord and Lady can now come together as one and give birth to new life, ideas, passions, projects, and wonderful expressions of unbridled sensuality. TO PARTICIPATE from your home in the ceremony you will need a small candle (preferably a tea that will burn out quickly) and a fire safe container (cauldron or ashtray will suffice), a small piece of paper and something to write with. TO PREPARE for the Spells (What we leave behind/release and that which we'll fertilize/bring forth) RELEASE: Write a letter of all the negative, old struggles you are ready to release. Reflect on any patterns, habits or challenges that came up during the winter months. BRING FORTH: It is probably a good idea to contemplate what are some things you'd like to bring into your life and see grow over the coming month's. (Remember the Rede...Harm none, do what you will.)
