Color of the day: Crimson Incense of the day: Myrrh Family gatherings can be a challenge, but since Jupiter, the planet that rules Thursday, inspires us to share our thoughts, beliefs, and prosperity, it is the perfect day for a Thanksgiving spell. You don't need to convert your family to the Pagan practice, but offer to say a blessing when your family gathers for the traditional Thanksgiving meal. Sometimes the simple, nondenominational blessing is the most powerful, speaking metaphorically to everyone gathered. We give thanks for all that we are blessed with democracy, peace, prosperity, and abundance. Let us give thanks for the food that fuels us, the abundant earth that has produced it, and our family that gathers in harmony to enjoy it. Let each of us quietly reflect on the great riches that are ours, collectively and individually. As we gather here, let us be grateful for all we enjoy and share our bounty together. |
