I've had such a busy couple weeks. I work so much and then have a college course. So balancing is sometimes hard. I had a blessed holiday.

A shop in Bethlehem holds public rituals on holidays sponsored by the CUUPS group that I am in. I finally was able to attend. I am used to solitary but I've been searching for a coven.

It was wow. I felt at home with these people. Then the ritual began. I felt it. I felt the energy. I felt at peace. I felt perfect. They had a talk about what the holiday is and turned the wheel. Which turned into the raising energy. They put on irish dance music. My two friends from cuups got me to dance. I was nervous to do it. the High priest was impressed. Then we called down. 2 did a small ritual thing. Then the energy let go. This is what I needed. I have had so much pain and anger. I felt it go from my head down and escape. I have been more peaceful and happy since then. After we closed, I stayed and talked with people. They were so accepting with me. I loved it. I am wanting to take classes at the shop and possibly join the coven that I met. I felt so right there. No sucking energy like I've experienced. Nothing but positive.

I hope everyone had a blessed Lughnasadh!
