Hi Sunshine, It’s Monday the day that Aphrodite is going to fail her math test but is somehow going to be saved by Isis?  Hmm, could there be a little witchery going on in here?  Let’s find out ha-ha!  Anyway my love, could you spend the day with me because I want to show you what a Sacred Walk is all about!  While we walk, I want you to see life through the eyes of a young witch named "Astraea!”  I happily volunteer for the position by the way ha-ha, and I hope by the end of the day you can see what it is like to be a witch too!  OK so this is what we are going to do my love lol, since I am an Air sign and my main gift is to observe things, we are going to observe all the complexities of life while we are walking throughout the day.

     Our first “Walk” was this morning before the 1st school bell rang, we were walking with Gina & Dylan to class while Isis was talking to them about the upcoming Mabon celebration we are having in their honor, but Dylan couldn't concentrate, because he had a lot of concerns on his mind.  He just had to ask if it was true that we were leaving?  “Isis, are you sure you have to leave us during Winter’s break for good?”  Isis responded by saying “Yes Dylan we’re going to have to leave and it will be the hardest thing we will ever have to do!’  That is when Isis asked me: “Astraea, darling, how many days do we have left before we have to leave here?”  Naturally I knew the answer and proudly blurted out “103 days 12 hours and 25 minutes!”

     While Isis was talking to Dylan she gently touched Kevin’s locker when she casually walked by and it magically opened for him!  Dylan and Gina were too focused on the conversation to notice what she did, but we saw her and stopped to talk with Kevin and gave him a hug!  “It’s ok Kevin, you’re going to be alright!  See your luck has already changed, Isis got your jammed locker door open for you and the homework you are looking for is in your left back pocket!”  Aphrodite smooched him on the forehead and said, “See you later lover boy!”  Kevin was so stressed out, but now he had such a beautiful smile on his face!  Anyway, we had to run back up to Isis just in time for her to say, “Thank you Sis” and then she also said thank you with her eyes for helping Kevin out, but our poor couple missed out on that magic moment when we had our special connection with each-other.

     Well, Isis continued to talk as if nothing happened and joked with Gina and Dylan when she asked us that famous question from our past: “Girls, do you remember what we did, when we had 60 days left to live?”  We both smiled and said, “Yes Isis, we remember, we partied our upcoming deaths by saying, Woo Hoo!”  Dylan and Gina were amazed “You mean you partied your upcoming deaths?”  Isis said with a smile “Yes my loves, Witches can’t stay sad for long, we party!  So turn that frown upside down into a smile mister, and help us party ha-ha.  Only this time we aren't going to die, we just have to leave, and that is a fate worse than death ha-ha!  So girls, what do we say when we are miserable and given up?”  We were out of breath, but we just caught up to her again and said “WOO HOO!”

     You see while Isis was talking, we comforted Cindy who just walked out of Lan Wu’s office, she was trying her best not to cry, so we ran up to her, gave her a hug, and invited her to come walk with us after school, while we plan a party that we're inviting her to.  She was so grateful that she smiled and said “Thanks girls!  I needed you so much and you were there for me!”  “Love you Cindy, see you later” and then we ran to Isis while saying “WOO HOO!”  Isis was laughing so hard because she knew what we did and how poor Dylan and Gina missed the magical moment!  Gina laughed and said "You girls are absolutely CRAZY!"  and Aphrodite laughed while saying "We heard that one before right girls!"  We laughed and said "YES!" and I added "Let me here a WOO HOO before we have to split up for class!"  Dylan and Gina both said "Woo hoo,  for my crazy sisters!" ;)

     You see Sunshine?  When you are a witch and you walk this Earth, you notice everything!  Even though we are walking in the real world with human distractions, we still see the life force that is flowing around us, and when we walk, everything is Sacred around us, that's what makes our life so fun!  Oh Sunshine, It's so easy to miss out on the little tings, but when you are in tune with Nature, you are in Awe of everything that is around you, especially when you are walking!

     Our second "walk" for the day came during Lunch period.  Nobody was really hungry, since Gina and Dylan was still concerned about so many unanswered questions they had about the future, so Isis said "Let's go for a walk, it's so much better to think while we are on the move."  So we all walked and the birds were chirping, The sky was so blue and pretty, the wind was softly blowing and while Isis was talking, she reached back for my hand as she was reassuring our royal couple that everything was going to be ok.  She knew I was in Heaven walking on our Sacred Earth and wanted to share the moment with me even though she was busy trying to reassure our royal couple the realities of life.  Hey what can I say?  our Isis is a multi tasking witch and she is good at what she does! ha-ha!

     Our final walk of the day was the most memorable one we had, and still talked about to this day!  It was just after school when Isis took us to the football field where we are going to have our Mabon celebration and Isis wanted to show Dylan and Gina where they are going to descend from the North Bleachers for everyone to see.  She was also telling our cute couple the meaning of Mabon so they could understand how they fit in our celebration: "Oh Dylan, Gina, Mabon is so special to us, it is the time of death and rebirth of Nature's never ending cycle of life.  It is a time of harvest, of celebration and time to let go of all the bad things that happened in our life and harvest the good things that are coming our way!  Mabon is about beginnings and endings, it is a time of equal light, of equal balance and I can't think of a better time for us to pass our reign to end our time, and for you to start yours!  When we pass the reigns over to you we know you will be an inspiration to all the kids and the community!  You truly are an inspiration and I can't think of a better couple to carry on where we leave off!'

     As Isis was talking to Dylan and Gina, we noticed that Lucy was on the field having cheerleading practice with her squad.  We also noticed that a small crowd was starting to gather behind us as well, Hey!  What can I say?  We are kind of popular and people were naturally curious why we were heading to the football field after school.  Even Cindy was part of the crowd, but not for long, because Aphrodite grabbed her by the hand and said "You're with me sister ok?"  Cindy's eyes lit up and said "ok!"

     While Isis was talking to Dylan and Gina, Lucy was slowly inching her way up to our area "Oh guys, it's going to be so much fun!  We're going to be carrying swords with us and hold our hands high while everyone can hear our battle cry!"  right after Isis said that, Lucy threw her cheerleader's twirling baton as hard as she could at Isis, but just before it hit her face Isis held her hand out and caught the baton with graceful ease, and without even looking!  It was the catch of the century! and as beautiful as a wide receiver catching the ball in the end zone to win the state championship!  Oh Sunshine it was so amazing!  Let me replay the scene for you because it involved split second timing!

     "Oh guys, it's going to be so much fun!  We're going to be carrying swords with us and hold our hands up high while everyone can hear our battle cry!' Isis catches Lucy's baton just before it hits her face and yells at the top of her voice "LOVE RULES!" while looking directly at Lucy!  This scarred Lucy, she never knew how strong a warrior Isis was, because she is so loving, kind, and humble, but Lucy mistook Isis kindness for weakness and that was her fatal flaw!  She fell to the ground with fear and then the water sprinkler came on and got her wet and muddy.  she left in total defeat as fast as she could while Isis continued on.  "And then we gently lay down our weapons and enter our circle with perfect love and perfect trust.  We carry the swords outside our circle as a metaphor of the battles we have to face in the real world just like we did  now, but when we come home to our sacred spiritual circle, we have no need for weapons, only love!  That's why we leave our weapons behind!"

     Dylan said "Oh my God Isis, that was amazing!  Lucy could have really hurt you but you caught her baton without even looking!"  That's when Isis humbly smiled and said "Yes it could have gone terribly wrong, but luckily I felt her presence and stopped her hate for now.  Anyway Ha-ha, I suppose we should return the field back to normal because everyone's mouth is wide open and speechless!"  Isis addressed the crowd that gathered around them by yelling and holding her fist up high!.  "LOVE RULES! and so do you, my family!  Love you all!" There was thunderous cheers because this was the day that Love conquered over evil and then the crowd picked up their Queen and ran all over the field with her!

     "Wow!  That was amazing, Aphrodite!  What does a normal day look like for you girls?" Cindy asked them and  Aphrodite smiled and said "Honey, this is a normal day for us but it's special because you are here with us to enjoy it!!" ;)
