Drawing Down The Moon PBP Week 8-D

 Drawing Down The Moon
   
        This is done by invoking the Goddess directly into ones self, if solitary, if in a coven the High Priestess may go into a trance like state and speak the words of the Goddess and in others, it may be a formal monologue calling  upon the Goddess in her many forms.
        It is said that you should do this on the night of the full moon or on the nights immediately before (although I myself have done it on many occasions when the full moon has already come and gone.) Of course for this ritual it is best done out doors unless you have neighbors you don't want in your business or the weather isn't cooperating then it may be done indoors near a window or door and if that isn't possible use strong visualisation.
       Drawing Down The Moon is filling yourself with Divine Light or the Essence of the Goddess. In Gardnerian Wicca this is only done by the High Priestess but with so many of us now being Solitary any man or woman may Draw Down The Moon.
        There are many benefits of Drawing Down The Moon as an ongoing practice.... Since this is considered Divine Light and is the source of Life this practice may help with many issues.....

  • Empowerment
  • Healing from illness or injury and improving well-being
  • Letting go of fear and accepting courage
  • releasing pessimism or doubt and increasing faith
  • Relieving depression and increasing Joy
  • Overcoming spiritual apathy or resistance
  • Transforming any negative state to a positive on--mental, physical, emotional, or spiritual
  • Boosting your energy
  • Increasing self-esteem


      This can be done with any of Her light but it is best done with the Full Moon unless you are seeking Energy from a specific Moon phase. Make sure you are clear with your intention to draw in the Eternal Divine Light only. Example: the Waning Moon is a time of letting go, cleansing, and releasing. If this is what you are wanting to do then make sure you invoke only this energy.
       Remember with clear intention you can invoke pure Divine Essence at any phase of the Moon as long as you set that as your main intention!
