Event Page for DejaVudoo Halloween

Here we go dropping down into the depth of now..

This morning, for me, the dead are so here…in myriad synchronous, deep grieving ways…

Grief is love…

and gratitude to them…

 

inspiring us to dust off all our rituals of reciprocal blessing between worlds.

(will proffer the New Orleans blessing of, communion with the Dead)

 

I have resumed the practice of making the glyph of the Day’s Planet, in cornmeal, outside my door…

For us, today, is Mars…the Western Mystey path of desire…

 

We will pause tonight to reflect on the question, “what do I desire?” Not abstract..For self and world…

But writing down the question now is good priming the pump…

And whatever the answer be, we honor Eliphas Levi, 19th c.Mage: “To know, to dare, to will and to be silent.”

We do not speak our one dedicated desire to anyone, as we practice incarnational actuality…until it has happened…

 

 

Let us gather our Mercury/Magician tools of literalized metaphor:

Mythic Ballots

View the collected ones here · send in ballots to Eryn to be posted

Follow up Themes & Practices

Offering of psilocybe to election magic tree

And look, it grew a perfect spiral arm, like the Octopus Teacher. 

And I offered the mushrooms to Sycamore, that the Group Soul if the Nation be suffused with “Curiosity, Confidence & Kindness. Qualities of leadership.” 

And tree said, noticing the perfect round cap, I was offering with stems “let’s you and I split that?!” Ok! “ “wheel & deal” be tender, witty play. Respectful dance.  

Jupiterian Reciprocal Blessing
Sending blessings to all creatures and receiving all blessings 
to east, west, south, north, above, below 
And if it’s the slightest bit of effort it’s not it…
Life is intrinsically a dance of reciprocal blessing, to and fro…

Blessing beauty poker
I see your blessing – and raise you one… (more beautiful, more deep, more potent)

Deborah and I are brewing more Halloween blessings for our audio gig, feel free to contribute… (email or comment on this page)

Which brings us to next week’s exciting adventure…
definite conversing with Mercury….stationing… woo-hoooo…

I have seen such effectiveness as we aspire to, in actual political circumstance, when Mercury absolutely unravelled the fix, and let authenticity be spoken

And next week – yes the chart of Social Security (New Deal)
Mars at 9+ Scorpio, Venus at 22+ Virgo, America’s Neptune,
its guiding vision… into Green New Deal, its energy,
what it may want to be called by Mercury…
our own name for this incarnational Vision…
and what we nominate to spiral forth into Group Mind

and Our Animistic Legislative Conjuring

and we’ll get to “shambles”and Five Act Structure of Story-Telling

****************************

Everything we’ve ever done is humming now

Cornmeal glyphs of the planets 
On the doorstep or in a sacred place … Dedication 
“Mars Day… Blessing upon Mars… Woofiness”

& Today (Wednesday) Mercury! (with Sun flower seeds as gift)

Blessing for the beloved dead 
(New Orleans Morning Ritual – )
With your cup of drink in the morning before your first sip… 
Make a circle in the air, then a cross, and toss the cup through it
For the beloved dead (and you see who’s there) & and pour a bit of libation
For all those names are lost in the mists of time & pour libation
For all those whose bones lie beneath and upon this earth & pour libation
And then you hold the cup up and go,
We, the living, salute you! And you take your first drink.

When the Sun reaches 15* Scorpio it is True Halloween, on November 6th/7th

Halloween is one of the four gates of power / cross quarter holy days 
Celebrated as much as the Solstices and Equinoxes, exact mid-season
(Candlemas mid-winter, May Day mid-spring, Lammas mid-summer)
These gates of power are when the intelligence of that season is especially eager to collaborate

Ancestors
Morgen le Fay
Eliphas Levy 
Granny Weatherwax

Stone ghosts of the south video 
My octopus teacher 

………………….

Finding our magic sacred places 
Where we may cast our ballot 
Friday day or evening 

Expanding our Phazer settings 
(Sudden interest in botany setting)

…….. 

Friday 1pm Honoring Ancestor Katherine 
Friday will be 40 days since Katherine Felmeth died, she will be buried at 1pm on Friday the 30th
may we dance, pray, weep, hum, touch the ground, dance, sway, sing, make noise … To honor her journey 

……..

Notes

Vivien Le Fay Morgan (from Dion Fortune’s The Sea Priestess)
I am priestess of Isis in the modern world…
The night of the full moon …sees the full moon shining through the window
Onto the dedicated humbled vase of flowers …
Feeling a downrush of power 
“And on the language of the adepts, I was back on my contacts” 

Mars .. Our desire
What do you desire? 
You don’t tell any body as you craft this deep desire dedication 
(Sharing much else but keeping dedication to oneself) 

Some things that take time, give us more time 

Ritual is not anything that someone tells you to do – 
Ritual is any physical thing we do that we imbue with dedicated symbolism 

Brooms!
Sweeping away corruption 

Kitchen Magic and Map Magic 
Cornmeal around dangerous places, honey to sweeten… 
Using household items symbolically dedicate 

Uranus Trickster Coyote Raven 
Has no category of success/fail … Experiment experiment

Honoring Magician (Tarot) ~ Mercury
We invite in power 
Taking the stance of the Magician 
Right hand raised to above to invite in power
And left hand down to the blooming flowers – incarnation of magic 

Dedicated acts of beauty invite power into the world 

Saturn Boundaries 
With sword .. Knife … Cutting the cords that run from our solar plexus to others 
We are cutting all connections to people and seeing them in their own autonomy 

Election Chart
We have no air in our election chart
1 fire Mars
5 earth
4 water 
So we provide the air 
May the winds of democracy sweep away all delusion 
Delusion … De ludo – out of the game 
And leave everyone Self possessed rather than possessed 

Pluto is our mission 
What did we come here to do?
Right now it has a creative angle to Neptune so we wonder what we can here to do 
This particular degree right now is about the right person and qualities being honored in a culture 

Eris – Goddess of Disruption
What we would to be disrupted now? 
Disruption can be an ally 

All these earth planets are training Venus 
Beauty, Craft … Altars, art, painting with words 
So that the metaphors can incarnate into actuality 

All this earth… Planting in the earth, touching the earth, weaving intimacy 

May we all have a quiver of arrows tipped with compassion pointed at cruelty & tyranny

Dissolving all that’s up to no good
Saturn is good at dedication, vows, defining hints … Not good at how, it’s what 
Jupiter & Uranus are our booking agents …. 
Jupiter says what ever vessel you put on your offer, I will fill it and animate it 
Jupiter says there’s a wheel and deal
I will make you wealthy by your definition of wealth … If you define wealth 

All skills are coming up and syncretizing 
into the unique contribution each one of us has 
The unique dedication magnetizes the opportunity 

To dance demons into allies 

Falling into our dedications silently like an owl falls into flight 
Allow ourselves to fall into the momentum and be carried forward
