The Wren and the Forest Floor.

I've had a few readings lately that have told me to return to my roots. Start fresh. I asked my pull today how I am to do that. If I am to focus on rebirth, where is a good start. Because I *need* direction.

Well, while not an exact direction, the Wren being tied to inspiration (and having a very particular personal meaning to me) is telling me I've already started my journey. I've planted my old seeds and am tending to the soil I used to tread at the very start of my path.

While I know there will be major things for me to cast aside and leave behind, the easiest and most enjoyable part of this new start will be revisiting my core. Letting myself create and be inspired. Connecting with old parts of myself who gave me those inspirations and drives.

Created a money "carton".

Rice, lavender, jasmine, ginger blend, salt, bay leaves, cinnamon, a crane, and some of that sweet green dough. I thought the milk carton would be very fitting for this spell.

Sharing to put it out into the universe.

A solar halo is a ring of light that appears around the sun. It's caused by sunlight refracting through ice crystals in high, thin cirrus clouds.

Adoration to Bast: Lady of Jubilation

By Joey Rivers (whispersofwyrd)

I adore You, Lady of Jubilation in Bubastis! Yours is the grand sublimation of levity, an alchemy of the senses perfected in laughter. Yours is the ecstasy of rhythm and dance, in celebration and reckless abandon we honor You. Yours is the Eye that catches beauty in the benighted, the Hand that wipes away the tears of hardship and regret. Yours is the Strength that lifts Khepera and claims the horizon, the Sekhem that breathes glorious effervescence into Life. Yours is the Voice that enraptures the very Heart of the Cosmos, the Song that affords each new beginning and grateful end. O Joyous Bast, I adore You!

Adoration to Bast: Lady of Life

By Joey Rivers (whispersofwyrd)

I adore You, Lady of Life! Yours are the songs of innocence, of toothy laughter, eyes wide-open, and skinned knees. Yours are the songs of experience, of silver strands, golden sight, and majestic lines of laughter and loss. Yours is the love that lasts but a season, the radiant flamenco of fireflies beholden to the quickening ember. Yours is the love that surmounts an age, the eternal waltz of the cosmic sea unburdened by the folly of time. Yours is the womb of the world, heavy with the dreams and ambitions of our young human race. O Gracious Bast, I adore You!
