Post No. 2,991 - Full Moon Esbat, Re-dedication, friends, and retirement

For this months Full Moon Esbat I basically did the Correllian Traditions Outer Court Self Dedication - which is a re-dedication, in my case. 

I was initiated into the First Degree during my previous membership, but, owing to a couple of decades of wear and tear, including the challenges of coming to terms with probably being neurodivergent, I am not going to attempt to take on the roles and responsibilities of being a Priestess. (I also attained Second and Third Degree Initiations in another Tradition, one which I was an Elder in ... and which I wound up to resolve some problems [although the only active Temple then continued - quite successfully - as a Coven], but I doubt that would have any significance in the Correllian Tradition.)

The Correllian Tradition is not exclusive, so I will also continue with the Pagan path I have developed over my lifetime - which is an eclectic mix including some Western Mystery Tradition (especially the LBRP), Spiritualism (including working as a trance medium - mainly for spirit rescue), and other aspects.

However, I am getting some of the social connection in spirituality through my (limited, as I refuse to use any M_ t_ products, such as F_ c_ b__k) membership. 

On that, I have also noticed that many of my working tools (especially my small crystals ... and some items my partner saved when I was too determined to downsize my possessions at any cost [Diolch Cariad/Mandaang Guwu Ngubaanbularr]) just wish to share space with me and each other, and there is no drive to do any particular work. 

It is almost as if, when I retired from day job, my crystals and other tools decided it was time for me to slow down energetically as well ... 

It is quite a shift, in some ways. In the past, if I felt the urge to take a particular crystal with me when I left the house, I would try to discern what work had to be done. Now, it is just a couple of old timers, one organic, one not, having a quiet day trip.

Going back to work, I am still wanting to finish and get my books out in some way; I wonder if the Correllian Tradition might be one outlet I could use? (Although they seem to not use e-books.) 

Ah well, it is all food for thought, and it is very late here - although I am finding being semi-nocturnal helps me get the things I want done, without having to cope with the daytime summer heat. 

 

Blessed Be

Remember: we generally need to be more human being rather than human doing, to mind our Mӕgan, and to acknowledge that all misgendering is an act of active transphobia/transmisia that puts trans+ lives at risk & accept that all insistence on the use of “trans” as a descriptor comes with commensurate use of “cis” as a descriptor to prevent “othering” (just as binary gendered [men’s and women’s] sporting teams are either both given the gender descriptor, or neither).
