Todays Goddess:Gujeswari Gujeswari Jatra (Nepal) Themes: Earth; Water; Abundance; Offering; Prayer Symbol: A Bowl of Water About Gujeswari: Gujeswari is a potent Nepalese Goddess of Earth and all its bounty, and today is her festival day. In many temples, the Goddesss presence is represented by a simple bowl of water, the life- giving substance and purifier of body, mind, and spirit. To Do Today: Buddhists and Hindus in this region honor the Mother Goddess Gujeswari today by giving her offerings, usually preceded by fasting and prayer. Follow this example, and put a bowl of fresh water on your altar or a special place where it wont be disturbed for the day. If physically feasible, abstain from eating one meal today to honor the earth and Gujeswaris goodness by returning (or preserving) some of her bounty. Otherwise, simply abstain from a favorite food for the day as a kind of sacred sacrifice. At the end of the day, just before you go to bed, sprinkle the water from the bowl around your living space. First, go counter-clockwise to banish negative energy that hinders free-flowing blessings. Then go clockwise, allowing Gujeswaris water to cleanse and renew the ambiance in every room. If you have some left over, sprinkle your pets (for health), your car (for safety in travel), and childrens beds (to protect them from nightmares), and dab some on mechanical objects to keep them working smoothly. )0( From 365 Goddess by Patricia Telesco
