My Samhain Plans

[qos]

During last night's meditation I asked Ereshkigal what She would like me to do for Samhain. As has happened a couple of times recently, the first response I got seemed too quick and pat, so I "recalibrated" myself, took more time to relax and focus more deeply inward, and went into a more yin state.

So far, Ereshkigal hasn't been particularly demanding. There are a few things She has made it clear that She wants, especially around the discipline of daily practice, but She's not the type to poke me all the time with "Do this!" and "Do that!" (Maybe because She has a strong interest in watching what decisions I make and poking me to become ever more self-reliant and self-starting?)

Last night, however, I got some extensive and clear instructions about how She would like me to observe Samhain -- and the distinct impression that She wants me to come to Her about every holiday this year.

I'm not sure yet how much I'm going to talk about it -- and I don't have much time this morning as I need to get ready for work. For the moment, I'll just say that the observance is called The Feast of The Bitch Goddess, and it's going to be about honoring and empowering those aspects of Her and myself. I'll also be observing a celebration of her hieros gamos with Nergal -- something I haven't done before.

I'm really looking forward to it.
