Reaffirmation of sorts

[Dawn]

I've spent some time lately trying to decide if this was the right path for me...and also wondering if my doubts were the result of the abundant negativity in my life right now. A last minute invitation from a friend to go with her to Salem told me that that is where I needed to be.
The weather was horrid. Pouring rain the entire day.Went to the Witches Wax museaum which was way too commercial for my liking, and then attended a public spellcasting. There such a feeling of peace ...it was like my whole body smiled.
I was then fortunate enough to be able to find Laurie Cabot's store. They only allow a certain number of people in at once, so after standing in the rain for 15 minutes, I was no longer the happiest camper on the pond. While standing there, I asked the Goddess to help me find the answers I am looking for...the ones that are right for ME.
Upon entering the store, I was led to a shelf containing packets of dried herbs...Sage being the most prominant. So I bought it. I continued around the store and a book fell off the shelf in front of me. Now, I'd heard about things like this happening, but figured it would never happen to me. The book was about "cleansing". I didn't purchase it...yet...but I certainly plan to. When I went to the register to pay for my sage, I noticed a board covered in silver pentacles. I have been wanting one for a long time, but could never find one that appealed to me. And there in the middle of the bunch, was a small, dainty silver pentacle who now has a home on my black cord along side my ahnk.
I no longer have doubts about my path, and I believe the Goddess was telling me it was time to "cleanse" all the negativity out of my life...figurately as well as physically. And get back to what's important.
Just felt the need to share this with you all.

Thanks so much for sharing that. She does speak to us in powerful ways that we'd never expect. I've had similar experiences more than once.

At a psychic fair, I saw a five pointed star with a piece of malachite in the center that I wanted because it is a pentacle that would not draw much attention. Malachite is also one of my healing stones. I'd already spent most of my money, and the vendor came down $5 in price so that I could have it. A few months later, I had draped it around the goddess statue on my altar when I'd taken it off. I was doing some cleaning and moving things around and was too lazy to move the dresser that my altar is on completely out of the hallway. Well, I knocked a bunch of stuff over, even chipping the statue. Hours later, I realized that the necklace was gone and I was so upset, because I had also used the vacuum cleaner..........sure that it had been destroyed, I took the bag out and emptied it. There was the necklace, totally unharmed and in once piece.

Powerful message that she protects me always.

Yes, she never ceases to amaze me in the ways she makes her presence known.

Blessed Samhain to you all!!
