November goddess

Haliya is offered to us from the Rockpool’s 2924 Moon Goddess Diary. She is a masked goddess of the moon and of moonlight, who was worshipped in pre-colonial times throughout the Philippines. She’s symbolises the strengthen potency of women who would gather in sacred ritual to dance and sing at each full moon, circling around a tree and summoning this goddess until the light was returned once more to the land. She and her brother were both incredibly beautiful with a luscious dark hair and eyes as dark as midnight. They travel down to earth and bathe in freshwater lakes. The moonlight and the beauty becomes so radiant that the next day, flowers would appear from the muddy depths of the lakes, covering the surface of the water in bold pink flowers. Legend, has it that this goddess wore a mask of gold shielding her incredible beauty from those around her. She has come through to support you this month, giving you the courage to stand radiant and proud and recognise your divinity As you learn to embrace the goddess that resides within you, you can remove your mask and learn to radiate your profound beauty through the world. Her mantra is: I am learning to lower my barriers and embrace the beauty that is within me. Her totem is the lotus flower. Remember her on 15th November.
