Wiccan Drawing Down the Moon Wall Plaque -

This wall plaque depicts the Wiccan ritual, Drawing Down the Moon, a ceremony where the priestess embodies the Goddess, honoring her and drawing her power into her and the ritual space.

• Central Focus: Embodiment of the Goddess: The ritual centers on the priestess becoming a vessel for Goddess energy. This means she acknowledges, invokes, and honors the Goddess, allowing her divine presence to flow through her.
• Symbolism of the Vesica Pisces: The overlapping circles forming the almond shape, known as the Vesica Pisces, represent the yoni (vulva). This symbolizes the feminine generative power and the gateway to the Goddess.
• Invocation of Goddesses: The names of various Goddesses—Isis, Astarte, Diana, Hecate, Demeter, Kali, and Inanna—encircling the image serve as an invocation, calling upon their diverse aspects and powers.
• The Five Fold Kiss: The male kisses the womb while reciting the phrase, 'Blessed be thy womb without which we would not be,' honoring the body as a sacred vessel and acknowledging the divine within.
• Purpose of the Ritual: The ritual emphasizes the sacredness of the physical form as a tool for worship and communion with the divine. It celebrates the feminine principle and its connection to the Goddess.
