[Rec] 3 of Cups Lord of Abundance Decan Ritual with Naha

This ritual group working is timed with the astrological movement of Mercury into the sign of the Crab, and is intended to use energy of this transit for a beneficial application.

This is one of the classical planetary transits assigned to the decan wheel, upon which MacGregor Mathers of the Golden Dawn placed the Minor Arcana Keys of the Tarot.

Mercury in Cancer corresponds to the 3 of Cups. This card is called Lord of Abundance.

All levels of sincere practitioners are welcome to attend, and follow along with rituals that they are familiar with. The energy of all rituals will be available to all present. Some rites will also be performed as call and response.

Participants:

Please have a place where you are free from distraction and enough room to spread your arms for ritual movements.

Have a journal and something to write with.

You will want to have an altar set up for this working, which can be as simple as a tea light and a cup of water, or as elaborate as you wish. The power of the ritual lies in the sincerity of your practice and not in many supplies, though these things can assist you in creating a favorable environment to do the work.
