Today's Goddess: Nossa Senhora dos Milagres Festa de Serreta (California)
Themes: Miracles; Wishes; Mediation
Symbol: Milk
About Nossa Senhora dos Milagres: "Our Lady of Miracles" is likely a Christianized revamping of an earlier Mother Goddess, as implied by her sacred beverage, milk. Nossa Senhora dos Milagres grants the heartfelt wishes of those who give her small offerings (often coins). This particular Goddess also mediates on our behalf with the Gods.
To Do Today: Today the catch phrase "got milk?" takes on whole new meaning. It is customary to enjoy a banquet of milk and milk-based foods today to honor the Goddess and accept her miracles into our lives. Get as creative as you want with this idea.
For example, people having trouble with conception might request the miracle of fertility through an early morning eggnog. Those wishing love can eat cheese. Those needing to get the budget under control might make rice pudding! Someone suffering from illness can eat ice cream with a blackberry garnish. All of these foods combine milk into a symbolic substance that releases the goddess into the area of your life where she's most needed. To present a wish to this Goddess, just put a coin under your milk container in the refrigerator today and recite your desire. At the end of the day, give the coin to a young child or person in need so that the magic of happiness and kindness energizes your wish and the Goddess's answer.
