Emotional Protection Full Moon Ritual
Mercury will be in retrograde starting on September 9th, so I though it would be a perfect time to create a ritual focused on emotional protection. During our circle we will explore the energies which surround us this moon cycle and learn how to work with the retrograde instead of against it.
Please read everything carefully. If you’re going to attend, let me know in the comments below.
Itinerary
7:45pm - I'll be online for last minute questions, comments, or to just chat while I finish setting up my space.
8:00pm - As people start to join in, I’ll go over our schedule and make sure those who participate have their supplies or need alternatives.
8:15pm - Our ritual will begin and “doors close”. Once we start our ritual I would not be letting others join us to limit any interruptions.

Recommendations to Continue on Your Own
I believe that some parts of a ritual are personal and should be done privately. Here are a few suggestions to continue this ritual on your own after we close our circle to help deepen what we’ve worked on.
Mercury retrograde is a time when emotions are heightened and you might come to a crossroad. This could be relationship wise, spiritually, or just general life decisions.
Journaling about how you’ve been feeling recently
Re-evaluating your goals and plans
Preforming a form of divination to help with guidance or decision making
Reaching out to your ancestors or spirit guides
Re-organizing or clearing a space

Anyone is welcome to attend for all or part of our gathering. You don't need to have your cameras or sound on if you're not comfortable. I do ask you to be respectful and courteous to those who are participating. These events are free of charge, but you are welcome to donate.
This is how I normally plan out my own spells and rituals. I'm sharing things from my own personal unique practice. I'm an eclectic witch of over 15 years, so some things are not used or preformed in a "traditional" way. There isn't a "right" or "wrong" way to practice, just follow your intuition and only participate with what feels right.
Anyone participating in any of my events or rituals agree to be kind and courteous to all those who attend.
I record these circles and keep them privately in my records for our safety. Just in case something were to happen (hopefully nothing ever will!) and there's no "he-said-she-said" situations or accusations. None of your personal information will be shared or given access to anyone other than myself. (Except in a situation where I need to use them for the safety of those who participated ) I hope it never comes to that, but I feel like taking this precaution will be beneficial. Some of these circles will also be posted to my YouTube channel. None of your personal information or attendance will be disclosed. The safety and privacy of all my participants is very important to me.
If you have any questions ask in the comments or contact me here. I look forward to meeting you!
