Are you superstitious? Do you consider Friday 13th unlucky? This weekend began with Friday 13th August
It’s thought that Adam tempted Eve with the apple on a Friday. During the Last Supper, apostles dined with Jesus Christ (who was crucified on a Friday) at his last meal. Jesus was betrayed by the 13th apostle – Judas Iscariot.
Feminine power is associated with the moon, and with 13 moon cycles per year, Friday 13th is actually a celebration of women. Before the rise of the patriarchal system, Friday 13th was considered the Day of the Goddess and a day to celebrate the Divine Feminine. Friday was also a day to celebrate the Venus (Goddess of love), and Freya (Goddess of Fertility).
How did you honour the Goddess in you this Friday 13th?
