Hiya! This week's Spellwork Sunday, we are focusing on working with the incredible Egyptian Goddess, Ma’at for restoring justice in our times of need. Ma’at was the goddess of truth, justice and the universal order of life. Ma’at, wasn’t just the goddess of these concepts, but was the embodiment of them and therefore was seen to be above the ideas of right and wrong because she IS the truth, and nothing is stronger than truth! We can invoke her in times when clouded judgments may be a factor tempering with our rulings or decisions!
Time / Planetary Hours:
This ritual and spell may be done at any time, under any cycle, being that Ma’at was the goddess of universal order, she controlled the seasons, and all astrological events, thus allowing us to invoke her at any time.
Altar Decor Setup & Suggestions
You can create a simple altar for this, or make it as lavish as you want. Whatever holds importance for your spell is up to you!
An ankh and a scale (both were her sacred correspondent symbols)*
A piece of paper, papyrus paper would be best suited, but not needed.
A bottle of ink.*
Any of her sacred plants and herbs like Rose, Frankincense and Aloe.
* You can find these at any new age, arts & crafts, or many home goods stores. It should be noted that you can make your own ankh, by drawing one out or making one out of clay!!
Simple Steps and Procedures
On the candle, use the tip of the feather to inscribe your candle with Ma’at‘s hieroglyph, the feather, and her name.
Clean off tip of feather so that no wax residue lingers, and dip quill into the bottle of ink.
On the piece of paper, write out the name of person, or situation that you believe justice needs to be brought to.
Say aloud
I call you now, our dearest Ma’at For your justice, can expel our clouded thought Restore order to the situation at hand
With harm done to none, who take to the stand
Now, light the paper with the candle flame and burn.
Save the ashes and take them outside. Let them blow away as you envision Ma’at with her wings stretched out carrying away injustice, and restoring truth.
Thank Ma’at for aiding in your time of need. It is done!

Season’s greetings! We can look forward to enjoying the expansive and optimistic energy of Sagittarius most of the month, then will cap off the month (and the entire year) in solid, structural Capricorn energy. Although this month has a LOT of activity, it will feel lighter, more exciting, and more action-oriented, as we have Neptune and Chiron stationing direct, a solar eclipse that breaks up stagnant energy, and inner planets Mars and Mercury switching signs. One big retrograde to pay attention to is...
December greetings, and happy solar return wishes to all Sagittarius and early Capricorn folks! This month is big closure energy, as it is the final month in the Wheel of The Year, where we punctuate another cycle closing in the spiral of time. After a doozie of November intensity, we are comforted and blessed with an optimistic and expansive Sagittarius New Moon Solar Eclipse this month on the 4th. Solar eclipses are more invigorating versus emotional (like lunar eclipses), carving pathways of new opportunity and growth. The Full Gemini Moon on the 18th keeps the optimism going as we all have more
Welcome to November and eclipse season, y’all! Not only are we in deep, visceral Scorpio season most of the month, we also have a lunar eclipse on the full moon. The end of the month, we get some invigorating fire energy in the shift from subterranean Scorpio into the free-thinking, firefly energy of Sagittarius, showering us with optimism and adventure. Neptune, Uranus, and Chiron are all still retrograde this month, so we still have some inner work to wrap up, however, four planets stationed direct last month, creating some forward momentum and action that we should...
