Moments of immanent grace
I don't often speak of grace; it's not a word heard often among witches. I'm not sure we hae a working definition of it, so I'll give you mine. Grace is the flash of realization that the Divine is strongly present within us. We are imperfect in our awareness of Her immanence and sometimes we are just flooded with Her presence. She is always here. I am the one who doesn't always notice Her.
Awe inspiring, profound, even downright silly, these are moments that the whole world opens into my heart.
Drawing down the Moon is a ritual that ought to provide some moments of grace, but at times we become overwhelmed and our consciousness gets pushed aside.
Starting from a deeply meditative state helps me stay present.
Thinking about some of those crystal moments of awareness, this what I remember most.
During my first Reiki attunementt, which was solemn and beautiful, a flock of crows began a raucous serenade. It made me a jump, and I had to struggle not to laugh and I fell wide open into the joy and laughter that is the Goddess.
