The Mt. Shasta Goddess Temple Goddess Mandala turns, we would like to take a moment to honor and thank the Deer Mother.

We remember her as the ancient guide of instinct, wisdom, and renewal—the heartbeat of winter itself. From the frozen forests where the pregnant doe leads her herd through snow and silence, to the northern skies where Beaivi, the radiant Deer Mother, pulls the sun back to the world, her presence reminds us to trust our inner knowing and move forward with faith. Her antlers, symbols of protection and divine connection, shelter all who wander in darkness, carrying them gently toward light and wholeness. In her rhythm, we find both guidance and grace—the eternal promise that even in the deepest night, life endures and the sun will rise again.

When the Deer Mother ascends the mountain, victorious in her splendor,
She brings with her the elixir of the forest.
With precious incense, fragrant and sweetly scented,
The mountain is purified!
The land is purified!
The waters are purified!
The animals are purified!
The deities are purified!
The spirits are purified!
My ancestors are purified!
My family is purified!
My friends are all purified!
My children are purified!
My loved ones are all purified!
Their life force is purified!
My life force is purified!
All things are purified!
The unseen realms are purified!
Obstacles are removed,
wounds are healed,
good words are spoken!
All is purified, is purified, is purified!

Honoring the goddesses of the Mt. Shasta Goddess Temple is more than offering a prayer. In our temple, we strive to make it part of our lives. Here is one way you can honor the Deer Mother in your busy life.

Supporting Local Environmental Initiatives

To honor the Deer Mother is to honor the heartbeat of the living world — to remember that every breath of wind and every footprint in the snow carries the pulse of her wisdom. We can show our reverence not only through stories and song, but through action: by tending the earth that sustains us, protecting the rivers that reflect her light, and nurturing the forests where her children tread. When we support local environmental initiatives — planting native trees, restoring habitats, cleaning waterways, or safeguarding the creatures who share our land — we echo the Deer Mother’s ancient call to care for life as sacred. Each act of stewardship becomes a prayer, each act of restoration a soft drumbeat returning warmth to the long winter of our times. In this way, we too become her herd — moving forward together, guided by instinct, trust, and devotion to the wild heart of the Earth.

Did you know the Mt. Shasta Goddess Temple has scents for each of our glorious Mandala Goddesses? This month, as we honor the Deer Mother, we can use her scent, Her Ancient Mysteries, to connect us to the Deer Mother herself.

Inspired by the Deer Mother of Old Europe, whose antlers reach to heaven and kiss the stars, whose feet delicately carve the trods and pathways of the countryside. The Deer Mother is Earth’s wisdom incarnate, and she protects those she loves. Her liquid eyes gaze upon your smile when you inhale the aroma of her perfume: clary sage, lemongrass, and oak moss.

To acquire your own oil or spray bottle of the Deer Mother’s Her Ancient Mysteries, visit (enter website).

Do you have a favorite scent you use to connect to the Deer Mother? Share your scents with us, too! We would love to know how you use your senses to connect with the Goddess.

Here at the Mt. Shasta Goddess Temple, we work with more than the Goddesses; we work with their Archetypes as well. Each month, we work with a different archetype to guide us as we honor the Mandala Goddesses. This month, we celebrate The Shamanka.

Haunted by the image of a mysterious woman from a dream, you set out to find her and discover she is a reclusive healer—the Shamanka—living deep in the forest. Drawn by an inexplicable urgency, you follow her guidance through a ritual of heat, cold, herbs, and song meant to cleanse and restore your life force. As the Shamanka drums and chants, you drift into a vision where you meet your own spirit, awakening to profound self-recognition and renewal. When you awaken in her cabin, calm and whole, you realize that something within you has forever changed—the old life of exhaustion and disconnection no longer fits. With the crystal she gives you as a token of remembrance, you rest, knowing you have finally come home to yourself.

Each of the 13 moons in a year has a unique energy that we honor with special themes and motifs. This month, we are gazing at the Moon Over the Mountain for December.

Moon Over the Mountain is the quiet mystery of endings and beginnings as the year turns. The mountain is the steady, enduring presence of time, while the moon, ever-changing yet cyclical, drums the rhythm of renewal. As the moon emerges over the peak, it illuminates the path and the forest, offering light in the darkness. Just as we find insight in the stillness of winter's close, we open to hope and activity renewed with the turning of the calendar year. We are invited to reflection on the past year's journey, grounding ourselves in the wisdom gained, while embracing the potential of the new year, as the moon continually returns, renewed.

The Goddess Mandala

In the Mt. Shasta Goddess Temple, we have a 12-month Mandala of Goddesses. Every month, we celebrate a different Goddess by performing devotional activities, offering Her praise, and learning about Her. December is dedicated to the Deer Mother.

Force of nature, force of life, traveller between worlds, adorned with stars and twilight, the Deer Mother is a spirit known by many names, in many cultures. She is often found in myths around women’s childbirth, women’s freedom from oppression, and natural healing. She is the shamanic guide who carries the priestess between the worlds to commune with spirits and visit with the unseen world. She is the one who knows where to find the magical mushrooms deep within the forest. Her soft fur is the best defense against the bitter cold of northern winter.
When the Deer Mother appears in your life, she arrives gently and then persistently nibbles at your consciousness until you pay attention to her. Don’t be surprised if she gazes into your soul with her large, liquid eyes.

As November comes to a close and the Mt. Shasta Goddess Temple Goddess Mandala turns, we would like to take a moment to honor and thank Santa Muerte.

We reflect on a figure born from the intersection of ancient Aztec belief and Spanish colonial influence—a powerful folk saint who offers comfort, protection, and justice to society’s most marginalized. Rooted in the traditions of Mictecacihuatl, the Aztec queen of the underworld, and La Parca, the Spanish Grim Reaperess, Santa Muerte embodies death not as an end, but as a constant companion in life’s harshest realities. In places like Tepito, where poverty, violence, and desperation are daily struggles, she is embraced by those often forgotten—sex workers, addicts, the sick, the incarcerated, the LGBTQ community, and the poor—as a fierce, impartial protector who turns no one away. Despite rejection from the Catholic Church, her devotees find in her a source of miracles, strength, and unflinching presence. Santa Muerte teaches that death is not the enemy—it is the great equalizer, a force of mercy, retribution, and ultimately, peace.

In thanks, we offer this Praise for Santa Muerte from an Unknown Author.

Madre mia Santa Muerte
Ante las dificultades de la vida, ayĂşdame
En mis desaciertos, ilumina me
En mis soledades, acompañe me
En los horas difĂ­ciles, fortalece me
En mas tentaciones, defiende me
En las p***s y tristezas, consĂşela me
Con inmenso poder, protégeme
Con tu infinito amor, amame
Con tu gran bondad, mirame,
Con tu mano providente, guĂ­ame
Asi sea por siempre
Amen

The Priestesses of the Mt. Shasta Goddess Temple are powerful, brilliant women who offer classes, workshops, and events to make this world a better place. Here at the temple, we like to honor their work and shine a spotlight on what they are doing.

Today, we are highlighting Priestess Aislin’s upcoming Level 3, Akashic Records Training scheduled for Saturday, December 20th, 2025, at 2 PM PST.

The Akashic Records exist in a dimension beyond the physical, in the spiritual or etheric plane. Practitioners can tap into the Akashic Records through specialized training that teaches you to tune into this vibrational field. Access often requires a focused intention and specific invocation to enter the records, respecting the sacredness of the process. At the collective level, they contain the history of humanity, civilizations, and the universe itself. Reading the records can provide insights into spiritual growth, healing, and resolving issues from past experiences.

Come finish your training and become a Master Askashic Reader.

Aislin Wolf is a Priestess of Brighid, Aphrodite, and Mary Magdalene, and a devotee of Hekate. She is an Ikofa of Orunmila, devotee of Oshun, and daughter of Yemaya. She specializes in Divination and has been an Akashic Record Reader and Reiki Master, and teacher for over 22 years.

Here at the Mt. Shasta Goddess Temple, we are blessed to have so many wonderful Stone, Herbal, Arboreal, Animal, and Avian Allies. This month, we would like to share a little more about one of our numerous allies.

Meet Oak Tree, one of our Arboreal Allies.

The oak tree, known as Duir in Celtic tradition, symbolizes strength, wisdom, nurturing, and divine connection. Revered by Druids and seen as a spiritual doorway, it represents the power to birth, nurture, and bring creative visions into reality. Oak Mother energy calls for reflection on how we care for our inner creations, urging integration across body, mind, spirit, and soul. Traditionally honored across cultures—from the Celts and Greeks to Romans and Native peoples—the oak has served as a sacred source of food, protection, and symbolism, embodying longevity, fertility, and divine favor. Even today, the oak’s enduring presence reminds us of our connection to the earth, our ancestors, and the unseen energies guiding us toward purpose and growth.
