A Mother's  Love
By Brenna Rhianon FyreClaws and Marc

Set aside a night that you and your children will be able to complete
this without interruption.

Take your children out to a candle store and purchase the following candles-
    1 Angel Candle - to represent the spirits and guardians
    1 Animal Candle - to represent the animals spirits protecting you
    1 Faerie Candle - to represent the faeries
    1 Candle - to represent the Gods and Goddesses

Let each of your children pick out one of the candles themselves and you
pick out the last two. Also buy long wooden matches. Once home, relax
and enjoy each others company for a while. When you feel ready to start,
take a stick or something semi-pointy and on the first child's candle,
both you and the child carve her name on the back. Make sure you both
share in doing this. Do this again with the second child and candle.
Then on yours, write your name but again let both of the children help.

Place the candles around the three of you so that they will not be too
close or get knocked over. Then take the matches and light the candles.
Then help your children to visualize a ball of protection above their
heads and also you do the same. Increase the size of the balls so that
they encircle each of you.

The say the following and have your children repeat after you:

    "The Light of God surrounds us
    The Love of Goddess enfolds us
    The Power of God protects us
    The Presence of Goddess watches over us"

    "Spirits and Guardians this night
    Be drawn to our candlelight
    Love and Protect us
    Watch over and Guide us
    Protect us from these evil harms
    Enfold us in your loving arms"

When you are done with this, take your children in your arms and picture
a ball above your head. Fill that ball with your love for your children
and bring the ball down and cover yourself and children in this ball.
When you feel the strength in yourself, take the candles and leave them
lit in the room you are in. Then you and the children do some activities
that you all can do together.

I suggest maybe baking cookies and make some popcorn and sit together
and cuddle while watching a movie that you all enjoy. Spend the rest of
the evening together.

This was written because I for one believe that a mother's love for her
children is one of the greatest powers and protections of all. The
spirits, guardians, gods, and faeries will find it hard not to join you
in this sharing and love.
