New Moon Journal

Bloggers blog for all kinds of reasons

I wanted to do this because I think stories are the fabric of our lives; quilted, silken, burlaped, or braided, stories give us warmth and hope, they provide memory and reflection, and they help each one of us weave a blanket of many colors and textures - that is uniquely our own.– Toby Bloomberg

Toby Bloomberg over at Blogger Stories graciously posted a bit the journal and me over at her blog. Thanks Toby! Just thought I’d share the news with y’all. If you blog and have a blogging story to share, send it her way. I love reading these stories.

I’ll be posting a ritual for the summer solstice and talking about coming Jupiter (expansion) square Saturn (contraction) on Thursday. Squares bring up challenges. How that is working and learning all of us. Stay tuned.

Michele's Statement of Faith

I believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

I believe the Holy Spirit is the feminine presence of the Divine Mother.

I believe that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is fully God and fully man, born of the virgin Mary.

I believe the Divine trinity is Father, Mother and Child. I am a divine child of this sacred trinity.

I believe that the true basis for fellowship is God's (Agape) love, which is greater than the differences we possess.

I believe in all denominations whose principles are founded in love, compassion and forgiveness.

I believe that God’s loving presence infuses everything seen and unseen. Thus I strive to love and live in harmony with all beings- the elements, the plants, the animals and human kind.

I believe worship is spiritual, and I seek to be flexible and yield to the leading of Spirit to direct my worship through divine connections to the land, to heaven and in all my relations.

I believe the worship of God to be inspirational and consider music, song, nature, creativity and the healing arts to be an integral part of my worship.

I know the path of shamanism and it’s direct revelation is both a living prayer and active dialog with God. I am one seed of Many.
