Day 7 - September

Today is the final day of the first week.  By now you are familiar with the 

daily ritual of the Immaculate Practise.

Today is dedicated to Mary's blue cloak of protection.

Below is a special prayer and step by step instructions on how to receive the 

special diksha. 

You can do the receiving mantra after or inbetween the prayer and mantra.

Feel free to add it into your daily ritual in any way.
I have been sharing this diksha with others for years and
I use it often myself.

Hail Mother Mary

Under your mantle

We take our refuge

We take our refuge

This very simple painting done by myself

carries the vibration of this diksha

The Blue Cloak of Protection

Mother Mary has given the Blue Cloak of Protection diksha to all those who ask Her. The Blue Cloak will cover your entire aura and with repetition of the meditation, its vibrational energy will increase and strengthen.

Diksha of the Blue Cloak of Protection - How to receive this diksha from Mother Mary

Sit comfortably and quieten your mind. Visualise the image of Mother Mary
 in your mind's eye.
You can use the image of the painting above if you wish to.

See her energetic Blue Cloak that surrounds her mystical form and aura.

Call on Her presence.
 'Oh Divine Mother, please come to me;
reveal thyself;
 bless me with your Presence.
You may become aware of a colour, a sensation or a strong rush of emotion. 
Allow, allow, allow. You may want to stay in the awareness of her Grace for a few moments before continuing.

Ask her to grace you with the Diksha of the Blue Cloak of Protection.

'Oh Divine Mother, by the power of Love vested in you and in myself, I ask to receive your Blue Cloak of Protection. I am willing to open my heart and mind to receive this energy transmission and to allow it to act in my energy field;
for it to cover my entire aura and protect all my energy bodies. 
Thank you thank you thank you. 
Jai Maa! So Be It'

Allow yourself to receive the energy and see/sense/visualise the Blue Cloak encircling your body. It covers your entire body down to the toes. The hood slips over your head and the two front seams meet down the length of your body.

Spend time, experiencing the energy of the Blue Cloak and take it with you, 
into your energy field.

Stay in this energy for 10 minutes until you feel the energies dissipate. You can repeat this meditation as often as you like. You can call on the Blue Cloak for Protection in times of anxiety or stress. The more often you meditate on the energy received during this Diksha, the stronger the energy will become.

thank you, Beloved Mother Mary, for this powerful and divine gift. 


Daily card, crystal and flower

During these seven days we worked with the archetype of
virgin, prophetess and priestess as embodied by Mary.

I share this extract with you

The chief characteristic of the goddess in her crescent phase

is that she is virgin.  Her instinct is not used to capture or possess the man

whom she attracts.  She remains virgin, even while being goddess of love.

She is essentially one-in-herself. 

She is not merely the feminine counterpart of a male god with similar

characteristics and functions, modified to suit her feminine form.

On the contrary she has a role to play that is her own, her characteristics

do not duplicate those of any of the gods, she is the Ancient and the Eternal,

the Mother of God.  The god with whom she is associated is her son and

him she necessarily precedes.  Her divine power does not depend on

her relation to a husband-god.

She bears her divinity in her own right.

In the same way the woman who is virgin, one-in-herself,

does what she does - not because of any desire to please, not to be liked,

or to be approved, even by herself;

not because of any desire to gain power over another,

to catch his interest or love,

but because what she does is true.

Virgin is used in its psychological connotation.
