At this time we can understand that the Full Moon is a time when opposing energies culminate, offering us the opportunity to experience, explore and potentially resolve the conflicts represented and initiated by the signs concerned. In this instance, we can know that the Leo Sun is seeking to illuminate our individuality, or creativity and uniqueness, while the Aquarian Moon reflects this sense of identity through our experiences as a group. This Full Moon then teaches us the manner in which the group reveals the true nature of the individual, each individual being able to see themselves reflected in the whole. We then will seek to blend our energies - to experience a group dynamic. Each of us then will ideally experience and note our uniqueness within the group. Indeed, we are not islands, and often the way that we experience group dynamic, and the reflection of ourselves within a group will tell us much that solitary reflection could not. Please, if you enjoy the energy of the evening...make sure that you pursue an increased awareness of the energies worked with. Worship - attaching worth to higher forces is an essential aspect of continuing evolution. Our intent then will be through our experience of the group to clarify the expression of ourselves. In this way, we will see THE SELF REVEALED THROUGH COMMUNITY CIRCLE CASTING After smudging, each person enters the circle, finding a place that is comfortable. After grounding and centering, the salt, water, incense and candle are blessed by those who are calling the corresponding quarters. After then all has been blessed, the circle is cast first with incense, and then with salt water. Then all together honour this land in song... Song Gundrah A oo noo Nungeenah tya Gundrah Lah oo oo noo Yahma koora, yahma koora Nungeena tya Yahma koora QUARTER CALLS East Elemental King of the East, Great and powerful Paralda Who amongst the elemental realm of fire has truly attained, Guide and Guard us this night We welcome you, So Mote It Be North Elemental King of the North, Strong, and steady Ghob Who amongst the elemental realm of earth has truly attained, Guide and Guard us this night We welcome you, So Mote It Be West Elemental King of the West, Deep, majestic Niksa Who amongst the elemental realm of water has truly attained, Guide and Guard us this night We welcome you, So Mote It Be South Elemental King of the South, Playful, wise Djinn Who amongst the elemental realm of air has truly attained, Guide and Guard us this night We welcome you, So Mote It Be INVOCATIONS Asherah, Mighty Serpent power of the Earth, That rises through the waters, Undulating, Surging, Celebrating life, We offer ourselves, We open ourselves, We honour and welcome you, So Mote It Be Baal, Mighty God of sky and life, Who dwells in the high places, Who rules the clouds, Who causes the rains To fall upon the earth, Replenishing, revitalizing We call for you, We hour and welcome you So Mote It Be WORKING As together we feel the forces that have gathered, we can begin to integrate and share these energies buy singing: WE ARE ALIVE We are alive, as the Earth is alive, We have the power to create our freedom If we have courage, we can be healers Like the Sun we shall rise If we have courage, we can be healers Like the Moon we shall rise We are alive, as the Earth is alive, We have the power to create our freedom We have the courage, we are the healers Like the Sun we shall rise We have the courage, we are the healers Like the Moon we shall rise With energy thus beginning to raise, we will begin to focus that as a group energy. We will circle around, singing and allowing our energy to knit. Take care to feel it as such, but to also notice your own strand of energy that is being woven in. WE ARE ONE We are one With the Sun With the earth Mother Earth Finally, all once more at rest...we will use the following chant to focus our awareness on gaining sight of our own strand of energy within the groups... I am me I see me Me see I Me I see me CLOSING Mighty Baal, we thank you for your presence and power, Hail & Farewell Beautiful Asherah, we thank you for your Energy and life Hail & Farewell South Elemental King of the South, Djinn, We thank you for guiding and guarding us, Hail & Farewell.
