One of the most wonderful things about Samhain for me is the sense of shedding a spiritual skin. I find that it's time to get crystal clear on my magickal intentions and pledge to be the most empowered and diligent witch that it's possible to be.. I find myself taking a look at the landscape of my spiritual beliefs and practices. I look at the aspects of my spirituality which fill me with joy as well as highlighting the problem areas, the things I'm not consistent with and the things I want to give more time to. I'm honest with myself about what it takes to be a spiritual being who sees life through the spiritual lens and responds to things in accordance with spiritual principles. I witness the ways in which I am cutting myself short spiritually and I decide to get back on track.
A long time ago, I gave myself permission to put my spiritual journey at the centre of my life. I knew that it was not something I was willing to shove into the background or hide under the sofa. I wasn't willing to demote it to the last thing on the list all the time, and I certainly didn't want to keep telling myself that prioritising my spiritual journey was 'silly' or 'pointless' or 'weird'. I decided that in order for my spiritual life to be as compelling and dynamic as I wanted it to be, I had to do it with both feet in. I had to be fully committed, 'in it to win it'..
So that's the road I took, and I couldn't be happier with how it's turning out for me.
Blesséd Samhain, lovebugs!
All good things to you.. All good things.
