The Grove of Living
***
To walk the full path of manifestation is to pass through four groves, each with its own guardian:
1. The Grove of Awakening — where the mist parts, and the oak speaks your true name.
2. The Grove of Claiming — where you lift the staff of will and declare, This power flows in me, as in rivers and stars.
3. The Grove of Living — where every breath becomes an enchantment, each day the weaving of sky, soil, and spirit.
4. The Grove of Becoming — where there is no separation between self and magic, for you are the magic, as the oak is the acorn, and the acorn the oak.
Let’s examine how to live within our manifestations
The Grove of Living — Here, every breath becomes a spell. Each inhale and exhale carries creation. Every day is part of the weaving — sky above, soil beneath, spirit within. To live in this grove is to know that life itself is the magic.
Here’s a short spoken charm for the Grove of Living
Rite of Claiming and Living
By BoJenn
The staff is in my hand.
It is authority, but not domination.
It steadies my steps as a walking stick,
and it carries the charge as a lightning rod
between earth and sky.
When I lift the staff of my will,
I claim my sovereignty.
I know I am not powerless,
I am not cut off —
for the currents of creation flow through me.
This power flows in me.
It has never been borrowed,
never been begged for.
It has always been mine.
To claim it is to declare it.
To declare it is to begin.
This is my first step into who I truly am.
The rivers move in me,
lifeblood of the earth,
constant, renewing.
The stars burn in me,
the eternal fire of the heavens,
endless, guiding.
Together they remind me:
the current of the cosmos is the current of my soul.
As above, so below.
As within, so without.
I am the staff.
I am the flow.
I am the rivers and the stars.
And I claim what I have always carried.
So it is.
The Grove of Living
With each breath, I weave.
With each breath, I create.
Sky above me,
Soil beneath me,
Spirit within me.
Life is the magic.
And I am alive in it.
