Love of the Goddess: Quickening Moon

Feel her breath as the wind blows, hear her song as the dove sings , touch her sacred plants and feel her life giving energy. She is the predator and the prey, she is everything and nothing, she is the mundane and the heavenly body, she is the universal mother, sun and moon, good and evil. She is the sacred Oak tree and the ground in which it grows, she is all loving. Embrace her love and she will show herself to you. She will come to your dreams and remind you of her ancient stories. Worship her, call to her, pray to her. She is great Mother to us all. She is Goddess. )O(

Quickening Moon

February's full moon is known as the Quickening Moon. It represents the last few weeks of winter, and the coming of spring. It is a great time to make plans for the future, and contemplate the past. Spring represents new beginnings, with the new shoots of green coming up from the earth, and from the pregnant animals ready to give birth. At this point in the winter, we are longing to feel the warmth of spring again.

Magic done during this time should include personal achievements and advancements. For your spells at this full moon, the color correspondences are purple and blue, and crystals you can use are amethyst and jasper. Since Imbolc is Brighid's day and February is a celebration of her, you may pray to her on this Quickening Full Moon.

Enjoy your Quickening Moon tonight!

Blessings )O(
