I was not well enough this past weekend to do my full ritual, so this month I did an abbreviated ritual, and have received a shorter message.
When I spoke with them, Bast and Sekhmet stressed that this was not a good month to start new things: new travel plans, new ventures, or new gatherings. This is a period of careful transition, not a time for leaps of faith, or of reckless return to old patterns, as though the past year had not happened. We can’t go back to exactly the way things were before – we need to plan a new way forward.
So: plan carefully, friends. Try to smooth the transition, and look where your foot will fall before you commit to stepping forward.
The next full moon is May 26th. If you have any questions, or if you would like to request a personal message or heka for May, please email the shrine here. And if you are interested in supporting the shrine, I have a tip jar set up here. Thanks!
