A few days ago on the night of the full moon I charged my very first moon water, the next morning I woke up in a fright cause my little lazy self hit the snooze button, so I went outside pjs and all to get it before The Sun hits it.
At first I got real worried if I was to late but then I said to myself it should be fine, dawn was barley breaking and Father Sun hasn't even peaked through the trees yet.
Just now, before going to bed I was thanking the gods on my new altar, (also my first, will def share pictures soon!)
Lighting insence, giving a fruit offering etc. I took out my moon water I had wrapped up in my drawer and as soon as I laid eyes on it I felt like it was pulling me in, my chest felt a tug towards it and it was as if i was in a trance.
I filled my cup, spilled a little on my fingers and used it to make the 3 moon sign on my forehead.
I started crying, not dramatic cry, or cry of pain, but tears rolled down. I felt something when I wet my forehead, it felt..beautiful, and PURE like I was truly blessed.
I kept thanking the goddess and prayed for protection for my family.
Has anyone felt anything like this before with moon water? With anything? This tug, this pull that drew you in. I can honestly say, even though it was a moment, I have NEVER felt anything like this before in the other religion I was raised with.
So many other things are happening around me and my house ever since i started walking this path, but this is getting too lengthy and can be saved for another topic. I just wanted to share this experience to everyone.
i feel you experienced an anointing. although it is a sacrament in the RomanCC, they borrowed it from an older belief system. i am thrilled for you. protection will be something to look into now. not to fear but now you have stepped up and we all get tested. I taught for the RCC for 4 years and worked for them for 2. they have some great wisdom and knowledge they pilfered and stole from other religions and cultures. BUT, if they had not, perhaps it would have been lost forever. again so happy for you! RRB
This sounds like a magical and wonderful experience. When it is things like this that feel so overwhelmingly right, flow with them. I personally got my very first jar of moon water June this year. So last month. At one point I felt like I needed to drink a whole cup of the water with the intention to heal my body. It wasn't a very strong pull and I wasn't emotional after it but it felt like a pretty out of the blue thing.
Whatever you do, keep doing it so long it feels right!
