- Description: Let your love be a kind of howl.
- Author: Risa Dickens
- Tags: The Missing Witches Prescriptions

This week we stood under the **Buck Moon** — named for the time when antlers push their way out into the world, sharp and velvet-soft, reaching toward the sky.

It’s a moon of **wildness**, of instinct and shedding, of remembering what your body and soul know beyond social scripts and silent ceilings.

In our **Weavers Full Moon Pathworking**, we followed a thread into wild places and wilder selves. We asked: *Where does your wildness live? What might it sound like if it spoke out loud?*

In her poem [*The Summer Day*](https://www.loc.gov/programs/poetry-and-literature/poet-laureate/poet-laureate-projects/poetry-180/all-poems/item/poetry-180-133/the-summer-day/?ref=missingwitches.com), Mary Oliver asks:

> Tell me, what is it you plan to do  
> with your one wild and precious life?

### This week’s prescription:

Let something true out.  
Be wild with your voice. Be bare with your body. Be bold with your longing.

🌕 If you can, be **alone with nothing between you and the moon.**  
💬 Speak your wildest truth out loud — even if it shakes.  
🕯 **Read this spell-poem** by [Em Chaney](https://www.missingwitches.com/moonflash/) under the moonlight, to charge your body and honour your orbit:

> **MOONFLASH**  
> I try to get my Tits out every full Moon  
> to flash my celestial body at hers  
> Glowing right back  
> Charging them up for the month ahead

(Continued on the [Missing Witches Zine](https://www.missingwitches.com/moonflash/).) 

Then:  
💃🏾 **Put on “**[**Wolves Don’t Live By the Rules**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fLtMcVPDVM&ab%5Fchannel=Elisapie&ref=missingwitches.com)**”** 

**Let the chorus sing into your bones, circle in your brain.** 

**Repeat it to yourself.**

  
**Dance. Chant. Shake off the "shoulds".**

> Let your words wear no armour.  
> Let your body forget what it was taught to hide.  
> Let your love be a kind of howl.

Because in the wild world, the instinct to love is everywhere:  
🪶 A bird brings food to a fledgling  
🐋 A whale sings to her calf  
🌾 A root stretches toward water  
🐚 The tide returns

And in my world — in this year of chemo, scans, dread, and still-so-much-life — love showed up in every wild and wondrous form.

Like my **father-in-law**, rocking a **Missing Witches tee**, loving me the only way he knows how: with pride and stubborn support.  
Like this coven.  
Like all of you.

I’m one week out from test results. So I just want to say: **thank you**. For carrying me. For shining. For holding the wild in your hearts.

We've tipped past Litha and are coming to that halfway point between solstice and equinox. The LAST thing I want is for any of us to drag old wounds into the Autumn, letting bad stuff that happened stop us from making great stuff happen, so I put together this panel of folx to help us discover systems for transmuting trauma.   **We'll ask: How did you make your way through your pain, and find a way to transform that journey to feed your future?**
