Our Lady of Guadalupe is regarded as a miraculous apparition of Mary, virgin mother of Jesus, by the Christian Catholic religion, but she is revered like a Goddess by Mexicans. Our Lady of Guadalupe is Mother of the Oppressed, but seems also to be linked to Coatlicue and the ancient Aztec Goddess Tonantzin.

Goddess of The Day: LUCINA Saint Lucy's Day (Sweden)
Posted by: "Cher Chirichello" CHIC0411@YAHOO.COM chic0411
Sun Dec 11, 2011 9:10 pm (PST)
Goddess of The Day: LUCINA
Saint Lucy's Day (Sweden)
Themes: Banishing; Kindness; Charity; Health; Protection
Symbols: Candles (light sources)
About Lucina: Lucina means light, and judging by her description and attributes, it is very likely that this
Swedish Goddess was the prototype for Saint Lucy. Lucina is a mother and guardian, offering fertility, protection,
and well-being. In worship, Lucina is often represented by a simple, lit candle.
To Do Today:To chase away winter's oppression and darkness, Saint Lucy's festival is one of lights and charitable
acts. Saint Lucy is the patroness who protects against winter throat infections, and commemorating her (or Lucina)
today keeps one healthy.
Begin the day in Swedish tradition by lighting a candle to represent the goddess's presence. After this a breakfast
of coffee, saffron buns and ginger cookies is traditional fare. Coffee provides energy to give of yourself, saffron
is often used in healing spells, and ginger promotes success in all your endeavors today.
To manifest Lucina's energy and keep the goddess close by today, carry luminescent stones like moonstone or
cat's eye with you, then visit hospitals or elder homes in the spirit of giving of yourself. Lucina will bless those
you visit, and you, with well-being, productivity, and safety.

Family Event Destressing Ritual

Family Event Destressing Ritual
While many times a family gathering may be a
happy event that is well planned and anticipated with much joy, it can
also sometimes be a nerve-racking event, especially if you are the one
hosting. Before the guests arrive, make time for yourself. This should
last about an hour, and you should be the only focus. Take a hot bath
with some grounding, calming bath salts. Center and relax. All the
planning is done. The focus is now on you. In the bathroom, burn candles that give off calming scents. Ginger-bread, vanilla, lavender, and
apple spice are good aromatherapies. Place a piece of sodalite in your
pocket to remind you to be personable with your guests. A quick prayer
to Hestia is helpful too. ~ Boudica

Daily Aromatherapy-Scented Beeswax Heart
Scent a room with this
decorative accent. Use a cookie cutter to cut a heart shape from a sheet of natural beeswax. Wrap the heart in cheesecloth and infuse it with a
few drops of Rose Otto. Place the wrapped heart in a plastic bag for a
week. Remove and discard the cloth and glue a ribbon hanger to the back
of the heart. You can even decorate it with dried flowers and a bow.
Hang it in the kitchen or even the bath!!

Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary
Posted by: "Cher Chirichello" CHIC0411@YAHOO.COM chic0411
Sun Dec 11, 2011 9:13 pm (PST)
Mother most amiable, mother most admirable,
mother of good counsel. Virgin most prudent,
virgin most venerable, virgin most renowned.
Mirror of justice, seat of wisdom, cause of our joy,
Mystical rose, tower of David, tower of ivory,
house of gold.
Arl of the covenant, gate of heaven, morning star.
Queen of angels, queen of patriarchs, queen of peace.
~Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary
Today is the feast of a special Goddess: Tonan, the Great Lady of Aztec Mexico, who has survived even
into present times. But she does not wear her fierce Aztec mask anymore. Rather, she is pictured as a
dark woman, wrapped in a serape, surrounded by flames, the moon under her feet. She is Guadalupe, the
Virgin Mary of Mexico, a figure who absorbs the earlier Goddess and sustains her in the life of her followers.
Guadalupe, the matron goddess of the Mexican people, came to her people through a vision. Juan Diego, a
Nahutl Indian, saw an apparition on a hill where Tonan's temple used to stand. The lady spoke to him, telling
him to build a church to her there. He went to the area bishop and told him of the apparition on Tepeyac hill.
Several times he was rebuffed, until finally he brought a claok full of roses, in midwinter, to the bishop. The
miracle established the desire of the mother to be back among her children, under a new name, but still protective
and loving. That is the miracle celebrated on today's feast - and behind it, the miracle of an important goddess'
survival among subjugated people.
