I can feel the signs of autumn in the breeze,summer sighs and makes to leave,windy warm through apple trees.I can smell the rain upon the air,dewy drops on leafy tops,shimmers in my hair. The frost paints silver shadows on the dawn,turning pigments red and brown, like bucks grown from the fawn.The words I speak that hover in the air,surround my senses and touch your lips,a time machine in little sips,and rusty rosy dirt upon the ground we lay,burrowed deep, seeds…
The dream began as thus this past Sunday: I was at a restaurant, placing an order and just chatting with friends, when our surroundings began to grow darker. Before a few moments had passed, it was night time. I looked around and aside from the glow of the restaurant, all of the other buildings around me had gone dark. I turned to ask one of my friends what was going on, but no one else was there. From out of…
There is a Harvest Moon outside, a full moon, a beautiful moon. It is a Harvest Moon in Pisces. The only time for the next 30 years will it land on a Friday the 13th, and it is lovely in so many ways. May your hopes and wishes to the Goddess be heard, my friends. Amaris.
A happy and blessed Beltane to all of you, my friends. ♥
Blessed BeThe children, the hungry,the poor, and the meek.The desperate souls who have nowhere to turn. Blessed be the cold, the tired, the weak.The myriad hearts who sleep when awake. Water, oh water,fall to the Earth,touch the tongues of the thirsty and lost.Save them from the heat of scorn and derision,let their hearts lead them back to the flock. Time, brother Time, tempus, Grandfather, doting,take away all of their pain.Leave memories fond, and traces of love,so that they might live…
Merry Christmas, and Happy Yule. May the Goddess guide your steps, and protect you in your travels.
“Don’t take away. Only add.” This message came to me today, and I’ve been mulling over it. It was more than a little bit of inspired communion between myself and the Goddess. She called me a water child, and told me that the destinies we think we are shaping are not truly something we can control, but only offer us the illusion of control. Corruption cannot be removed, it can only be replaced by love. Nature abhors a vacuum, and…
We’re ten days into October, and it’s still way too warm here. According to the Gregorians, Autumn has been in full swing for about two weeks now. I’m hoping that by Halloween things have cooled considerably. It isn’t properly Halloween unless there is a chill in the air, and falling leaves upon the ground that make a satisfying crunch when you walk on them. This is also the time of year where the veil between worlds thins just a little…
I don’t know what I want to write, because it’s all still a jumble in my head, but I felt it important to get it down because the moments of clarity and peerless thought do not linger these days. I lie awake this morning thinking, as I often do because at some point in the day my brain decides that I’ve had enough sleep, whether it be 4 or 5 hours, and begins to embark on a personal journey inward…
Neither the message, nor the messenger, are mutually exclusive. Sometimes the messenger is the message.
