Today would be my 10 year anniversary of going to Ireland the first
time. Of course I had planned to be in Ireland all this last week. The
weather there is rainy. The weather here is to be thunderstorms. Guess
this Fall is headed in with the rain either way.
This afternoon I will head up to Wyoming. Every year I go to my Grandmother tree and the Faery Cave that is hidden there in the rocks. Each year I spend my Faery Wedding Anniversary with my Faery Lover. In 2004 I was re-wed to him and to the land in Sligo Ireland.
This year I had tried to plan to be in Ireland this day to celebrate my 10 year anniversary, there on the land of Faery. In the Sligo Glenn. I weep a bit inside to not be there with my love. To not be there where the green is so green that it hurts my eyes.
I will head up to Wyoming in a few hours. The forecast is thunderstorms. This may be the only year that the Equinox Sun does not burst into the back of the cave and activate my altar. Last year it did right at sunset. I had nearly given up on the clouds. It's always a gamble as I need to hike down out of the wilderness after the sun has set. If I am doing that during thunderstorms tonight? That will be interesting. But alas, I will be at the Faery Portal at sunset. To be with my lover. To give him the gifts I have collected this summer. To read to him some poetry. To sit quietly with my candles. Hopefully there will not be so much rain that it spills down through the cave.
I am dedicated to be in ritual space each year at this time. To give thanks for Maeve marrying me to the land. Reminding of my eternal pact with my Faery Man. I love him for all lifetimes. My co-walker. My Lover twin. My connection to my faery past. The green shine that still glows with in me. I will be there at sunset to make astral love to Himself. He adores me. We complete each other in mystical ways that no human lover could attain. Our energy dances through the stars and settles into this green earth. We sing the wind and laugh beneath the waves.
On this anniversary I give thanks to my tribe for getting me safely to Ireland those 10 years past. So I could be captivated once again by my Faery Man. I live each year for this anniversary and I thank one and all for the opportunity to really LIVE this Mabon day.
Blessed Bee
