Ode to the Moon
The Lesser of the Great Lights
Gentle.
Calming.
Changing.
Losing at times.
Gaining in others.
Rhythmic.
In the shadows.
Symbolic of rest.
Yet, not leaving us in the dark.
A companion when full and waning.
Allowing other lights to shine.
Welcomed by the earth and the sun.
A shared partnership in a grand design.
Lesser, yet great.
Lesser in brightness, strength in softness.
Lesser in size, power in proximity.
Lesser in scale, mighty in impact.
A comforting companion as we relax out of our day.
More welcome in rest than the greater of lights.
With subtle influence and quiet power.
Reflective of the fire that burned in the day.
Ode to the moon, night after night.
The lesser of the two great lights.

Affection and Healing for Yourself
During the night of the last quarter moon, I gathered my ritual supplies. I carefully handled the chunk of black tourmaline that would protect me from your overall negative and narcissistic energy. I carefully walked the house with my stick of selenite in hand, asking the universe to cleanse our working space.
