Blood Moon Altar
Blood spilled, dragons blood burned, cords affixed, songs
sung, dances danced. All alone with me, myself and I…we merried our way to
wholeness.
Last night was a magical bursting long in the making. Looking
long into my past has always been a peeling back of scabs long to heal but never
quite getting the care required. I have healed a bit here and there, but with a
pinpoint in my map of life that’s been denied attention.
Mother.
The wounding of my mother is a sticky tricky thing that is
so pervasive that it easy to get lost in the history of it. So with the help of
a friend I found the answer in the reduced to the simplest of magics by the
cutting of cords. I am cutting the cord of attachment to my mother. When I say
this, I do not mean I’m cutting her away because I find that a dangerous and
uncomfortable thing. She is my adopted mother to be sure, there is someone out
there (maybe) who gave me birth, but she is not the one who so poorly raised
me. So I see no way out of this simple fact, she is my mother.
Cord magic is very powerful, but one must be careful not to
cause harm. You have to be clear that you are cutting away the past, not the
now. The now is still forming so it an unwise act to sever what is unformed. At
least this is true of parents, children, and the like. Boyfriends/girlfriends
of destructive forces must be cut away in a complete and utter fashion. You
have no need to keep threads of energy between you.
So be careful how you cut the cords, threads, and even whisper
like connections. The lite ones are easy and may not require actual cords worn
to be cut at the moment determined. But threads to ones that do not serve our
greater good may require this commitment. Wearing the cords, or in my case
twine, is a commitment that creates a reminder of the work you have commenced. You
must know when you literally cut the cord at the predetermined time , that this
connection will be no more.
More on cords; they can be used for you to cut away a habit
long learned or a recorded message running over and over again in your mind,
most likely given by parents trying their best, but ending up causing a corded
connection of malcontent that follows long into adulthood.
The whole point of this type of spell/magic is to set
yourself free from what feels like a itch on the brain, that one you cannot
scratch. But you can exorcise it. You have the tool to do so. So use it at
will.
Also, be honest when pouring your intent into the cord; make
sure you are clear about your part in the creation of the situation that is
being let go. You want to know it’s there for you to pay attention to. I wear
mine on my wrist where it is an often reminder of the work I’m conjuring. When
I get to them to cut it off, I will feel
the literal release. It will become a burden to bear, one that must become an annoyance
to the level where you cannot wait to be free of it.
I believe that covers cord magic. 101 level at the very
least. I hope someone reads this, works the spell, and releases themselves from
some misaligned connection. That would
make me very happy and surge power into my works as well.
Sharing is caring, especially if it’s a bloody ritual born
from pain endured, but liberated in love for you. So pass it on….
Rainbow around last nights Blood Moon
