Hekate

Goddess of the Day

Themes: Moon; Beginnings; Magick

Symbols: Serpent, Horse or Dog (Her sacred animals); Light (torch); Myrrh; Silver; Moonstone

Hecate Speaks:

Greetings of Moonlight and Opportunity, dear Granddaughter....

Tonight I open a pathway so you may discard all that you wish to release and forget of the moons past, and welcome unto you, that which your heart desires most. I stand at the cross roads of your life bearing a bright torch to guide you. Choose wisely, the path you will walk, as this doorway opens to reveal your future. 

On this sacred eve, take time to contemplate your journey. With gratitude thank She Who Has Guided Your Path, and offered clarity when you were unsure. I come to take from you all that you no longer require for growth, healing and empowerment, and offer in return, my power. Use it to celebrate and honor the energies that dwell within you and keep you on your soul path, despite distractions, sorrow and confusion. 

Wear the moonstone to keep sacred your intentions for the New Year, and keep it close to your heart when you are fearful or doubt yourself. I am ever with you. Call upon me and I will light the way.

Iris

Goddess of the Day

Themes: Winter; Peace; Protection; Air; Mediation; Promises; Beginnings 

Symbols: Rainbow; Water

Iris Speaks:

Bright blessings, sister of light.

I bring hope to those who worry, despair, or have given up. I wish to shine my message of calm, new beginnings upon you. As the year comes to an end, release all that has been troublesome, fearful or sad. Trust that something better will soon bless you.

Like a rainbow after a storm, I come to encourage you and restore your faith in yourself, in your dreams, in life itself. Allow me to inspire you. Allow my radiance to become your own. Hang crystals in your windows to catch the suns rays, to remind you that beauty is everywhere. Take a walk in the fresh air today and feel a renewed sense of cleansing energy wash over you. Open a window, even if just briefly to let the sweet air stir the staleness that envelopes you. 

To integrate the sweet lightness of being into your body, eat figs, cake, or honey, today. Make a sacred oath, and promise to change what you can, so true refreshment can restore your sense of well-being and hope for a happier new year. 

With the scent of lavender,

I encircle you with love.

Iris

Pandora

Goddess of the Day

Themes: Hope; Prosperity; Wishes

Symbols: Boxes

Pandora Speaks:

Blessings!

Sometimes, we, as women, are so misunderstood. We can be misjudged and the lies told about us can stain the purity of our very being. Be wise, dear one. Do not believe all that you are told, rather, look for the deeper, hidden truth. 

My name means 'All-giver', because I delight in sending gifts. May your heart be open, this day to receive my precious gift of hope. 

In honor of the mystery and wonder of life, create a special box for your 'wishes'. Choose a box with a nicely fitting lid. Cover it in beautiful silk fabric or even glitter! Then place within it, trinkets, which represent what you are hoping for. Choose items that represent your goals, wishes and dreams. For example: add special gemstones that offer the energies you desire to manifest within your body or life; a matchbox car if you need reliable transportation; a key if you wish a home of your own; a packet of seeds for lush gardens, etc. Use your imagination! 

Place them within the box. Before closing the box, add an item which represents HOPE, to you. 

Place the box upon your altar. Each day, light a candle as you whisper your prayers and wishes, then blow out the candle. Remember: As soon as one of your wishes comes true, remove the token or trinket and carry it with you until you find another who desires that same wish, then gift the token to them. When all your dreams, goals and wishes have been granted, leave the token of hope in the box! This way, you will never be without hope.

Lovingly,

Pandora

Larunda

Goddess of the Day

Themes: Earth; Home; Ghosts

Symbols: Stove or Oven; Soil or Clay

Larunda Speaks:

Daughter, I come to ask that you do not forget those who have died, but rather, that you think of them with kindness. As the guardian of earth bound spirits, I come to you this day to tell you of those who have passed through the veil, and yet, who remain to protect and watch over you and those you love. Offer them your loving thoughts and I will bless you abundantly.

I come to bring joy to you and your home. Light a fire in my honor today. Prepare a meal upon your stove or in your oven and I will bless it, too. Cook in a clay pot, if you have one, in honor of the Earth. May you feel my warmth throughout your kitchen on this winter day, and may the kindness I have shown to you, be felt throughout the new year. 

You are loved and cared for in ways you may not know. Remember this, and be at peace.

Larunda
