In Celtic mythology, the Wolf Moon was connected to the goddess Brigid, the patroness of poetry, healing, and smithcraft. Brigid was celebrated on February 1st, the festival of Imbolc, which marked the midpoint of winter and the first signs of spring. Brigid was also associated with fire, light, and inspiration, and she was revered as a source of wisdom and creativity. The Wolf Moon is a time to honor Brigid and seek her guidance and blessing for our endeavors.
In Norse mythology, the Wolf Moon was linked to the god Odin, the ruler of Asgard and the father of the gods. Odin was a god of war, magic, and wisdom, and he was often accompanied by two wolves, Geri and Freki, who fed on the corpses of his enemies. Odin was also known for his quest for knowledge, which led him to sacrifice one of his eyes to drink from the well of Mimir, the source of all wisdom. The Wolf Moon is a time to emulate Odin and pursue our own quest for knowledge and enlightenment.
The Full moon is in the South of Leo, a fixed fire sign and the opposite of Aquarius whose season we are in. Now is the time to focus on your fire. That which drives you and how you can reconcile it with that which you need. Like the wolf who is part of his pack, we cannot to everything in our own. Now is the time to foster relationships, to make progress toward goals, and to plan financially. The fierceness of Odin yet the creativity of Brigid. Make and female coming together to create anew.
I call upon the power of the Wolf Moon, the moon of primal force and creative fire. I call upon the spirit of the wolf, the animal of instinct and courage. I ask for your guidance and blessing, as I seek to connect with my inner wildness and unleash my creativity.
I bless myself with the water of the Wolf Moon, the water of cleansing and renewal. I bless myself with the spirit of the wolf, the spirit of freedom and courage. I accept the message that I received, and I commit to act upon it. I honor my inner wildness and unleash my creativity.
