Magic is all around me but often times I forget that! I’m thinking that I should intentionally inject
some magic into every day. And how will
I do that? Well, that’s the fun part of
this adventure. The magic may be
something I remember my mom doing or saying.
The magic could be some folk remedy or Goddess ritual I had been reading
about. The magic could mine, straight
from my heart!
Rabbit, Rabbit, Rabbit On the first day of the month these words
are said, first thing, to insure luck and prosperity all month long.
I decided to find
out, why rabbit? It seems that no one really
knows but there are bunches of hunches.
I like the theory that the ancient Celts believed that rabbits
communicated with the spirits because they burrowed underground. Rabbits could bring your messages straight to
where they needed to go.
What if “rabbit” doesn’t happen to be the first word out of
my mouth on the first of the month (coffee is usually the first thing I mutter
in the morning)? All is not lost. If you say it backwards you are safe, so “tibbar,
tibbar”
Fun tidbits:
The great comedian Gilda Radner said, “Bunny, bunny” for a month of laughter, love, and peace. Some folks say “rabbit” 2 times, some 3. Others say “white rabbit.”
There are also folks that say “hare, hare” before they fall asleep on the last day of the month to have good luck.
Rabbit, rabbit! May you enjoy a peaceful month!
