Birthday, birthday, birthday

Mercedonius started on May 1, which was a Monday. And, traditionally, I end it on my birthday, today, which is a Friday. Monday’s theme is intention. Fridays reflect & attract. The moon and Venus. Feminine, receptive, energy.

But this year, Mercedonius has not quite caught up to my season. What’s happening inside me is not yet happening around me. I am still open to receive.

My go bag is out and open, but it isn’t packed. The semester is over, but summer is not yet underway. And the phone is ringing, but the prince has not called.

My new year has started, but the old one is not quite done.

Everyone keeps asking me what I have planned for my birthday weekend. But one of the principles of this Mercedonius, is that you cannot plan magic. Yet, at the same time, you can’t just wait for it to arrive. How very Gemini. You have to hold space, leave room, stay out of the way if magic is going to find you.

So, while I have moved into the container of the new year, I am still holding the old one open.

Is the cat in the bag or out of the bag or am I pulling out a rabbit?
