Ponderings

As we are coming into the energies that is Mabon.....

I have been doing a lot of reflecting.....

On....

My life

My marriage

My kids

My current position on my spiritual path

My family

My friends....

and before i go into more depths on any of them I'd just like to give you some information about Mabon....

this is the time of the autumn equinox, and the harvest is winding down. The fields are nearly empty, because the crops have been plucked and stored for the coming winter. Mabon is the mid-harvest festival, and it is when we take a few moments to honor the changing seasons, and celebrate the second harvest. On or around September 21, for many Pagan and Wiccan traditions it is a time of giving thanks for the things we have, whether it is abundant crops or other blessings.

Demeter and Her Daughter

Perhaps the best known of all the harvest mythologies is the story of Demeter and Persephone. Demeter was a goddess of grain and of the harvest in ancient Greece. Her daughter, Persephone, caught the eye of Hades, god of the underworld. When Hades abducted Persephone and took her back to the underworld, Demeter's grief caused the crops on earth to die and go dormant. By the time she finally recovered her daughter, Persephone had eaten six pomegranate seeds, and so was doomed to spend six months of the year in the underworld. These six months are the time when the earth dies, beginning at the time of the autumn equinox.


So as to what i have been pondering....

Well....

My life it would seem to me to be coming full circle.....I feel that i have been in this time / place before...but then i feel i took a wrong turn from here.....so now it's time to look at the crossroads again and choose a different path.....

That said....on the path i chose i have learnt many lessons that i am grateful for...

This new path will see me in a happy and loving relationship with my Husband...

This new path will see me having a fun and happy time with my children....

This new path will see me enjoying being a full time mum.....

This new path will see me finishing the first of my 7 children's books that i am writing.....

This new path will see me learning the tarot and using my knowledge.....

This new path will see me loving my family more...

This new path will see me loving my Friends...all of them no matter what.....

This new path will see me enjoying all that life and love has to offer

big stuff Jewell...life seems to be full on for all of us at the moment...a time to reflect is much needed...a time to just zen is sometimes also needed, just so you can hear yourself calm down and get back into control..see you tomorrow.

I wish you light for the path you are walking. Still you must be wary. Life has many signposts. But some of them lie. Listen to your heart. Reflect in your mind. And live in the moment.

In blog-surfing, I came across your blog and enjoyed it. It shows great creativity and effort. It is appreciated. Thanks, Roland
