today, as i celebrate my maternal grandmother’s 132nd birthday by entering the samhain portal deeply calling in another temple, the star temple of avalon, i re-member a couple of years ago her birthday coincided in such lovely synchrony with the Tibetan Buddhist celebration of the holy day of Lhabab Duchen, a festival of re-joy-sing in all acts of kindness for on this day Buddha descended from heaven to liberate his Mother and repay her many acts of kindness… it seems oh so fitting on this sacred day in this moment of eternity as metaphorically we journey to the star temple to revisit this temple i visited a couple of years ago on this day to ask the questions of what needs transforming and alchemizing on this day of celebrating grandmother ancestors by scattering the good in their honor…

will you join me this moment in the caravan of re-joy-sing circling ’round the cauldron where we brew the elixir of transformation, rebirth and inspiration, drink it in and take sacred action by performing acts of compassion joyously and scattering all of these acts of kindness and goodness we bestow and all the acts that have been bestowed upon us by the ancestors…

so, yes, let us breathe in deeply through the stone people, our ancestors, right down through the deep heart of the earth coming home ready to choose love over power, compassion over fear and construction over destruction centered in our one true self, the self organizing intelligence of the ever expanding cosmos…
