Dear Reader,
Med-Moura is a break in the discipline and fasting of Moura. It is a time for the celebration of mother of all sort and of spiritual leadership. We pause in the austerity of Moura to look around and see the beauty left in the world and the wonders that remain despite Our Lady's journey into the Darkness. And we give thanks. This is by no means a bacchanal and a time of wild delight. We are still encouraged to maintain self-discipline and to prepare for the Holy day of Kala, when the Daughter dies and her body is desecrated by being hung as an ornament on the World Pillar. We are exhorted to prepare ourselves for Hiatus, the time when all is spiritually void of meaning and prepare to pray to Marya to rescue her Daughter Anna from absolute oblivion.
Because it is a leap year, here in the northern hemisphere, Med-Moura falls on March 4th. If you can, today, gather your elements for your celebration and take time to put them up late in the evening this way you can wake to Med-Moura's delights. And then take them down and place them in a safe place until next year. Through Med-Moura, we breath relief that all has not flown into the outer darkness of chaos and Khear. And we gird ourselves for the challenges of the upcoming weeks.
