Poetic Peace Pilgrimage – Year 10 – Day 106 – 4/1/2023

welcome, well come to day 62 of a season of peace and to the first day of arriving april and to the day of celebrating the holy fool in us all setting off on a new turn around the sun of the adventure of life…

traditionally, the fool card in the tarot is associated with the numbers, 0 and 22… at 0, the fool symbolizes life force before manifestation; at 22, the fool has sauntered the 21 keys of the major arcana completing a full cycle of awareness and experience and now steps beyond into a new dimension of limitless potential as a free and easy wanderer, an awakened and adventurous pilgrim/poet on a journey…

so, on this first day of April, as we celebrate the ultimate pilgrim, the holy fool, let us bless this new beginning of a moonth of arriving, of coming home to the present moment by contemplating what’s been quietly forming in the background, what’s emerging now…

for me, the pathless path continues to be more and more mysterious in proportion with letting go to flow… this living more and more in the now takes heart, courage, it is a defying of gravity and moving into levitating… i’m trusting in Beloved and the power of love as iterated below by the incomparable Rumi…

“This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet.”

speaking of flying, eight years ago on this fool’s day (which seems like several lifetimes ago in this moment of eternity), i flew off on quite an adventure to gather holy water from the chalice well arriving the next day on the isle of avalon, sacred space of the goddess where i joined with a beloved community of thirteen in the breaking of bread and drinking of holy water and clean-sing (cleansing), as in the washing of feet, of our soles who kiss the earth and ground us into embodied presence as it was the day in the christian calendar known as maunday thursday, the last supper…

in this moment of eternity, in every moment of eternity, we offer thanks for our last breath/first breath, our always flowing in the rhythm of dying/rebirthing, ebbing/flowing, breathing in/breathing out always being love, always becoming love… it is thanksgiving that transports us into the quantum realm of the unitive field where our heartmind is one…

thousand fold thanks for sharing this journey of arriving calling us into a deep dive into true nature…
