Reasons & purpose for ritual
We have come together tonight from all corners of the online community to celebrate this full blue moon Esbat, and the Lughnasadh Sabbat Ritual. This is the Time where the powers of the moon are at their strongest. This is also the time of the first harvest. We attune ourselves to this great energy, so that we may use it to manifest our hopes and goals. This is the time of the Mother Goddess, whom is the creator, and sustainer of all things. Let us call upon her on this night to aid us in our undertakings.
Act of Power Full Moon Visualization
If you can see the full moon from were you are please take a few moments to gaze upon her.
now imagine the face of the full moon see her clearly in your mind. see her soft luminance, and her pearly light.imagine her qualities, and think on what you are feeling from her, her love, strength, and peace. feel her energy, and commune, and bond with her.
Now think on what you are working towards and changes you wish for within your lives, and convey this with her.
Divine Mother Goddess please hear our prayers that come from our hearts to yours. We pray for your aid in our hopes and goals, and in our workings aswell. Please share with us your energy, and strengthen us and lend your power to ours.
Now lets all place our hands on each side of our desks and imagine togeather a soft white light desending from the moon upon all of us and connecting all of us togeather. feel the light coming down all around you entering through the top of your head, and filling your body as water fills a bottle. feel the purity, and strength from it and all through you. bond with the light, and be one with it, and one with the Goddess.
Focus on the light which is filling you, feel its texture, its movements and let it work within you.
Now raise your hands, and hold them out in front of you with palms out. and through your palm chakras, send forth a stream of white light that is filled with tiny silver stars, and send this forward to the center of our internet circle. imagine the great ball of light that is forming there, swirling, sparkling, and glittering.
Now imagine inside the ball is your hopes and goals see them clearly within the ball of great light, see them already accomplished. know that it is already yours and will soon take shape.
Now chant
I Will it: It Is
I Call It: It Is
I Make It: It Is
I Accept It: It Is Mine!
Now see the Ball of stary light suddenly disperse, like an explosion, and the energy flowing out in all directions, carring our goals and hopes outward into manifestation, and this already accomplished on the astral plane and that it will soon be on the physical plane as soon as the circle is open.
Now let the energy dissapate, and clear and release any excess energy you have.
Act of Power
Earth Healing Stones
Hold your stones in your hands and focus on them, and think about the earth as the stone is a microcosm of the earth, and is connected to the whole of the earth. think on that part of the earth which is in need of healling, and focus on it, picture it clearly in your mind, and imagine it being healed, imagine that the healling is complete.
Now Imagine a ball of white light around it, the light is clear, and strong, see this light full of energy, and as bright as you can imagine. Now imagine that the thing that needs healing is within the ball of light, and see the ball of light healling it. see it healed and well again. visualize the healing complete.
Now place your stones in a circle in the center of your altar.
Now chant
We the children of the earth and Sky
Must heal our Mother by and by
With hearts and minds we all will try
To bring her healing by and by.
Now focus on your energy in the stones, and see them filled with a beautiful clear white light. Imagine the stones shining with the light, and that light is radiating in all directions. Imagine the stones filled withenergy that is strong, and pulsing, and it gaining in strength. Now think about what you have healed, see it healthy, now send it out into manifestation. Now release the energy all at once.
