| A bag of jellybeans
Marshmallow Peeps — chicks, bunnies, etc.
A chocolate rabbit for each particpant
A glass of milk for each participant

| Arrange your ritual supplies on your altar so they look pretty. Kids can do this — typically the chocolate rabbits end up in the center, surrounded by an army of Peeps and several rings of jellybeans. A quick note — you might want to perform this ritual well in advance of mealtime, or all the kids will be too full of candy to eat a real dinner. |

Daily Devotions of the Goddess
So many years I walked in fear, That my heart could never see. Then in a instant I found Her love, And knew my spirit was set free.

| New Moon: Her Powerful Emergence |
Life begins in the dark, deep in the womb, in the chrysalis and in the fertile earth. When the moon is new she is not visible to us in the sky.

This is not a time of objectivity. As we dream in the dark, this is a time to plant the seeds of your dreams, goals, new projects or anything you want to initiate and take to fruition. What has outlived its purpose is ending and something new is about to emerge. At the exact moment she is new, we are between the worlds of past and present, death and rebirth; the next moment she begins waxing. Read more at cyclesandsymbols.wordpress.com |

Citrine
does one of two things for me (and sometimes simultaneously).
As my Happy-Happy-Joy stone, Citrine’s sunny qualities better my
disposition and increase my optimism. As
my Wake-Up! and Cut-To-The-Chase stone, Citrine clears my mind and illuminates,
while bringing energy to a situation. I’ve
loved Citrine for a long time now, and, next to Peridot, it is one of my
favorite gemstones…and the lighter the yellow, the better.
