Day of the Dead 2013

I did my usual candle remembrance ritual on this day and again made it into a FB event like last year to pay it forward and help remember those we loved and lost wherever we are. It went well but only 2 happenings worthy of note and no specific messages received (at least not yet). Firstly the cat going mental all evening from shortly after candle was lit. I started to worry because she behaved exactly like my cat used to behave in Italy before an earthquake. At some point she was asleep on her chair and then suddenly jumped out of it so fast the cushion flew across the room…Secondly my long-lost nan appeared to me in my dreams last night. A short but lovely dream were she assured me all was well and I should carry on :).

It feels like the energy around these last few days is dark and dense. I don’t know if it is because of the New Moon + eclipse + all else that is going on but I feel it. And it’s the kind of energy that you don’t want sticking to yourself. I have the last of the candle burning right now, will cleanse some more afterwards. But I really hope this energy will shift and soon. It has been a weird year this 2013, and I can safely say I will be happy to see it out and welcome new changes and energies :).
