satya_firestoneI'm addressng two Sabeot/ds this week, Vestraven and Vol'ka.
Original:
At Vestraven, we know the fulfillment of the spiritual. The Wand is the symbol of union and shared fertility, and represents the spiritual fulfillment and the beginning of the physical cycle. This is the final renewal of the Wasteland, so that we may begin again to dwell in that renewal. At this time we Draw West God [Kur], the guardian between the realms of Faerie and the worlds of men, and call for any Goddess using the generic invocation, that we may be given a guide for this particular cycle.
Adjusted:
Vestroven = 6 of Wands: champion, victory, success.
The spiritual renewal of the year has been successful in setting the stage for the physical renewal. We assigned the West God [Kur] and any Goddess to be invoked.
Commentary:
As you can see, Vestraven didn't change much. It completes the Spiritual half of the year and sets the stage for the Material. Even the Deity invocations remained the same, and this calendar year (2013), it was Gwenhevar, Goddess in the Southeast, Who came to us.
Original:
At Vol’ka, we meet the challenges of life in the worldly realm. We begin to Dare: the acknowledgement of our ability and duty to actively participate in the cycle. At this time we Draw Northwest God [Goh'len], the One who shapes the clay of Being, and West Goddess [Ariadne], the Muse, that we may acknowledge Her for our inspiration in that participation.
Adjusted:
Vol'ka = Sun: birth, life, hope.
This is the time to give forth the renewal we have achieved. We assigned the Southeast God [Atamenoch] and South Goddess [Salonshai] to be invoked. The theme for this Sabeot/d is Hope.
Commentary:
This Sabeot/d is second to last in the cycle, and in 2014, its focus will mirror the standard Wiccan Imbolc. I find it appropriate and comforting that we'll be calling the Priestess of All and Her Lord, the Witches' first teacher.
