Great Mother Goddess. I call upon two of your faces today. The Face of the All Mother, the Earth Mother, you who nourishes, and guides, and weaves our lives into a pattern of beauty. Be with Shannon as she makes this huge step in her life. Allow the best possible path in her life to be illuminated, by a welcome candle in the window of her shelter. If it is the best possible path for her, allow her to acheive a place in that home, so that she may begin life anew.
Mother Goddess, heal the wounds inside her heart, and mind. Allow her to find herself, to know herself, and to love herself. AND her Children, with depth previously unknown, and with clarity of mind.
Allow her to find the counseling, support, nourishment, guidance, inner strength, conviction, aid, and resources that she needs to become the person you created her to be.
I also call upon the "Raven" aspect, this day, that you might spread your wings around her and the children, protectively. Cloak them from the view of those who would harm them, harrass them, or impair their happiness. Protect them as I no longer can.
On that note, let this be the rest that I need, the respite, that I need, in order to think through all of the matters in my own life right now. Allow me the time to now concentrate on myself, as I've been putting all of my own issues on the back burner, in order to be there for, and to help, someone whose problems seem so much greater than my own. Allow me not to ignore my own needs, and problems, and to realize that my life has its own scores to be settled. And it's own problems, to be sorted out. And they are every bit as important, in the grand scheme of things, as anyone elses, and need just as much of my attention.
I feel confused. Because I am losing a friend, though the purpose is great, and the reason just and right. I hope that I do not sound too selfish when I say that I will miss her Goddess, and that sometimes, I wish you would bring me a friend who could be there for me, as I was for her. I am lost too, Goddess.
If it is in your plan, help her to remember me, and to keep in contact if at all possible. I have set loose the broken bird to fly, and I would like to know, that she has found a safe, happy, and strong nest in which to land.
So Mote It Be.
