Continuing my series on the importance of spending time with your family this Holiday Season, I wanted to talk about the importance of Ritual time with your partner. With the New Moon this Sunday this is can be something you do almost immediately.

A friend of mine from Texas, Jon Edens of Blackberry Circle, has a quote that he doesn't mind me sharing. The Family That Circles Together, Dances Forever. His organization as well as FWTI believes that the inclusion of family in ritual is one of the most important things that we can do.

But for the sake of this article I wanted to focus on just doing this with your partner. Wanted us to step away from being Father Priest or Mother Priestess and instead focus on being a Husband Priest or Wife Priestess. As adults, not only do we need this alone time, we need to reconnect on an energetic and spiritual level with our partner. This is so we can present an united front when we engage as parents with our children.

So this next New Moon take your partner by the hand and lead them to Sacred Space. Cast a Circle and light the candles and incense and praise the Ancient Gods together. Recognize Deity in each other and be joyous.

Blessed Be!
