Beltane Ritual

qosI am very, very pleased to be able to report that I did everything I intended to yesterday to prepare for and carry though on the Beltane instructions I received. I didn't make it to the workshop, but that was only because it was cancelled.
I spent *hours* cleaning my temple room and re-doing my altars, and it was very satisfying.
The observance itself was quite powerful, a combination of affirming and seeking integration with returning parts of myself and burning out things within me that were not of me and not serving me. We started with LM and I journeying to see Freyja, and she took a very active part in what followed. I'm not sure if what I experienced qualified as "aspecting" or not, but I definitely felt her spirit and presence within me, guiding some of my actions. I was still in control, but she was there too. I think it might qualify as the "me in the driver's seat, her in the front passenger seat" model of sharing.
Evidently the working generated some less-than-welcome attention, which I was able to handle with Ereshkigal's help.
The weather is absolutely gorgeous this morning. I need to clean the kitchen, but after that I am definitely going to head out to the island.
