Morgan puts her head in her shaking hands.
Struggling to get up, she gathers her tools, changes from her mothers robes into a pair of jeans, and a sweater.
Walking through the woods, the cold November wind in her face, she regains her composure.
She plans to head straight to Practical Magick as soon as she gets back. She would phone Hunter, but she promised herself she'd limit her calls to a dozen a day, insead of one every five minutes. She told herself, just another week to go, then he'll be home. She'll phone and tell him tommorow.
But Alice would know what to do. She didnt exactly know herself what she needed or wanted, but she thought talking to Alice would certainly help.
She got into her Jeep, after leaving the woods, and started her up.
The Jeep, Bluebell, she named it, after its shiny blue colour, was a replacement of her car Das Boot she'd had in high school. She'd always had a love of big cars.
She pulled into the garage of her own home in Widows Vale, a few streets away from her parents house. Close enough for comfort, distant enough for privacy.
She got out the car, and lugged her pack with all her tools and ritual equipment into the house.
Looking around, at the empty house, made her ache for Hunter. She closed her eyes, and saw a scene before her, Hunter kneeling before her, on their first christmas in the house together, proposing, holding out a ring, the stone made of morganite, circled in diamonds, set on silver.
She smiled, and looked down at her left hand, where the diamonds twinkled, as if winking, at her.
" Goddess, Hunter, I love you so much, " she whispers to the empty house.
She takes one last glance at Hunters empty seat, then turns around, and leaves, locking the door behind her.
15 minutes later at Practical Magick, Morgan enters the shop, rubbing her hands together for warmth.
Alice is at the back of the shop, stacking shelves, and turns around at the sound of the door's bell.
" Morgan !" she exclaims, and hurries over, hugging her, affectionately.
She stops and looks at Morgans face, senses the anxiety and worry there.
"Whats wrong ?", she asks, without Morgan saying a word.
" I just needed to talk to someone Alice, someone I trust, and, now that Hunter works away regularly..." she trails off hopelessly.
" Now dear, you know you can come to me any time, come on now, lets get you a cup of tea", she says and leads Morgan through to the back of the shop.
When they were both seated, with a pot of strong smelling tea in front of them, Alice said,
" So, whats up ?"
Morgan stares down at her tea, identifying the different ingredients :- Cinnamen, Apple, Honey.
" Well, you know that I'm doing a paper for the University Of Wicca on my life, before discovering I was a blood witch. And, I've been scrying in order to find out more, the parts I dont remember. Well, today, I decided to go to the wooded clearing up in Ducheal woods, for a change of sceneray. The house, being so empty, was getting to me.
So I went, and got set up, and, while staring into the flame, I asked it to show me my past, in rewind, and it did, but it didnt stop at my birth, it kept going, and thats when I saw myself. "
Morgan told Alice everything, and when she was finished, her hands were slightly shaking again.
" So you see, I'm really worried, I dont know what it means. He called me, or her, whatever, anyway, he called her Meera. Does that mean I was called Meera in a past life? " Morgan asked, needing answers.
" I think, my dear Morgan, that in a previous life, you were a blood witch, also, and, you had a daughter, and for some reason, you trusted this man, perhaps you even loved him, but, you had to leave your daughter with this man, and he betrayed your trust, and sold your daughter, by the looks of it, you were enraged by this, and killed the man, so your daughter would not be exposed to him. You were being a protective mother, Morgan, not a murderer, you dont have a bad bone in your body." said Alice gently.
" But maybe I did then, the look on her face. It scares me, that I could be capable of that." said Morgan, shuddering slightly.
" Morgan, I think you should go back, and find out more. I think, it would cause damage if you didnt" she said, raising her head and looking Morgan in the eye.
