Forward movement

The family is hanging tough.  Things are hard and will be for a while but we are walking this path together and supporting eachother along the way.  It is amazing how we have gotten so much incredible support from some of our friends and family. 

Everyone else in the family coven is growing during these times too.  I have been really excited to see some of the strides that everyone is making in their spiritual growth.  One of our FC members reached out to her mother and came out of the broom closet, fearing that it would be a problem.  To our amazement her mom came back with the most loving message ever.  This was such a great experience for me.  It was one of those moments where I was able to reflect on the special relationship with my mother and how special that bond can be.

As life is moving forward, we are learning to live throughout the chaos of loss.  I am also able to see how this has ripples energetically to those in the FC and am grateful that they are handling their business and moving forward with whatever it is they need for themselves too.

The Gods are walking this path with us all.

Elevation rituals for both Michael and Jenna

The Sunday of Pantheacon we gathered in the hotel room and did the elevation ritual for Jenna's first degree. A well deserved elevation and one that I was very excited to do. She was wonderful and Michael, Kathryn, Hoi Sum, Jade and I were able to lend energy to the transition.

The Wednesday after Pantheacon I did a third degree ritual for Michael reinitiating him under Rising Phoenix. Michael already earned and received his 3rd degree with Dragonstone as well and this initiation was an acceptance of his position in FWTI and within our FC as well as Dragonstone. It was an honor to do this ceremony for Michael.

Upcoming elevations are for Kathryn to the third and for Tricia to her Second. I am also pulling for janet to get hers very soon and Danielle is waiting in the wings.

It is exciting to see everyone moving forward in their studies and taking care of themselves spiritually.

Blessed Be everyone!

Changes and sadness

FRP has suffered a huge loss this year.  My mother was tragically burned in a kitchen fire on January 13th.  She was cooking for the kids when her shirt caught on fire.  She suffered second and third degree burns on 35% of her body.  Sadly she passed away on January 29th and transitioned to her resting place.  As you can imagine, we have been dealing with grief and extreme sadness as a result. 

As with the Phoenix, she met the end of this life in the fires of resurrection to be reborn anew.  As sad as we are, we are not without hope that she is preparing for her next adventure.  Sadness cannot take away our faith in this moment. 

We send love and support to her in her journey, knowing that we will be ok eventually...... yet missing her always.

Thank you to everyone who has supported us throughout this time and may you all have the blessings you seek.
