Please explain Moon Rituals.

Yes please someone explain moon rituals :)

Ecclesiastes 10

20Curse not the king, no not even in thy thought; and curse not the noble in thine inner chamber: for a raven of air may carry thy voice, and one winged may tell of the matter.

Summon aether back.

It seems to me that the explanation desired would be that of one who partakes in them.

I talk to the moon while I smoke my last cigarette every night. I know it's not normal, but it's just a thing I do....

Don't be moon shaming me.

This is a moon ritual.

Nuh uhhhh.

Shhhh *in sotto voce*

Ask him what the mansions of the moon are.

Arabic or Greek?

Is that the three mansions of the moon?

The Greek houses, yes.

For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft,
And stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry.

1Samuel 15:23

So they left all the commandments of the LORD their God, made for themselves a molded image and two calves,
made a wooden image and worshiped all the host of heaven, and served Baal.

And they caused their sons and daughters to pass through the fire, practiced witchcraft and soothsaying,
and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke Him to anger.

2Kings 17:16,17

And so I can halfway follow along, I have Agrippa’s Occult Philosophy on my desk.

Agrippa book II, chapter 33.

I could be construed to be shaming if and only if I offered a non-ritualist's view, of which, though tempted, I did not do.

Your explanation of a ritual being something an adherent acknowledges to be abnormal, does not understand, and continues to do is probably as succinct an explanation anyone could offer for any ritual barring one being the fabricator of a ritual able to speak to its original intent.

Most fabricators, I would wager, are not very dissimilar and their rituals are, as you say, '...just a thing I do.'

Got it.

And seeing the Moon measureth the
whole Zodiac in the space of twentyeight
days; hence it is, that the wisemen
of the Indians I and ancient
astrologians have granted twenty-eight mansions
to the Moon...

Been a long time since I read any of this stuff lol

Lot of word salad. You guys are no fun, I'm leaving the larp.

Luna taketh 27.5 days to make a circuit around earth, though she taketh 29.5 days for a complete lunation. Wherefore there are 28, sometimes 29 mansions in the ancient tradition.

Psalm 45

8 Out of the ivory palaces whereby they made thee glad.

You know, it really is a shame this area of knowledge is not taught to a larger extent. Not anymore at least.

Western society has grown woefully ignorant of the lunar cycle and the mansions.

Therefore, it is out of tune with the tides of the year and the growing seasons.

If we are so out tune with even these elemental earthly principles, how can we ascend to experience the more subtle spiritual principles?

The agricultural year is the foundation of any society. And the lunar cycle rules it to this day. Lose it and your society will go the way of the Dodo.

Very true. I've said the same thing myself for a long time now. Mother Earth would benefit by us returning to the natural cycle.

But of course no one takes the word of a witch lol

When you realize the early Christians and the pagans had it right lol

No one takes the word of John the Revelator either.

Revelation 12

And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:
