Night of the Two Streams
The second night - December 26th
I open my heart to the suffering of the world.
Zodiac: Pisces
Month: February
Siddhi: Gene Key 36 – Compassion
Theme: The gift of selfless empathy and spiritual faith. Two streams – matter and spirit – meet in the heart as compassion.
Practice: Visualise the flow of water rising from your heart, reaching out to someone who needs kindness. Let it nourish yourself and others simultaneously. Feel your own boundaries soften as the two streams merge.
Journal: In what ways can I live more fully in empathy, letting my care for others and myself flow freely and harmoniously?
Optional Wild Pagan Rite: Draw water from a stream or pour water into a bowl and lay it out beneath the moonlight to be blessed. In the morning, sprinkle it on the thresholds of your home to invite harmony between the seen and unseen worlds. Honour the water spirits and ancestors who guide the emotional currents of life.
