"I Have Power Indeed," said The Woman. *



The ‘Woman’ mentioned here is none other than the Irish Goddess, The Morrigan.


Can you feel a change in the air?  It seems that there is a different vibe going on now. The coming of the Harvest season brings hope. Maybe it is the possibility of a new beginning. Or simply a fighting chance for a different future. Whatever it is, it feels palpably different than a few weeks back. 



As I was thinking about what to do for the community ‘Forge Bling’ this month, this quote came to me. And the more I marinated on it, the better it felt. So, in honor of my Goddess, I am using the old Irish for ‘indeed’, which is écin. (h/t to my crow sibling Mara for helping with the research) It is used for - of truth, certain, an emphasis, surely. "I have power indeed,".And I feel it fits in nicely now.


This month's Working will be different. It’ll be a copper bracelet. I will shine it up all spiffy and bright, like a new penny. I enjoy working with copper. For me copper speaks to healing. There is an elegance to it, Majestic like. There is a type of gentle wisdom with it. It has an ancient feel to me. It is also a fantastic conductor of energy, a flow if you will.


I will co-create these on the New Moon (August 4-5) and pre-orders will be open till August 3rd. 


And for those that do pre-order, I’ll also include some copper ‘confett’i from this working to add to your magical toolbox.


To learn more about how to work magically with metal, simply add my book 'Metal Never Lies: An Introduction to Metal Magic'


It could very well completely change your magical practice.


If you are not familiar with 'Moon Bling' here is a post that explains it. What is Moon Bling?
