as we close the magnificent month of march, i reflect on the space we have traversed during this intense turning with two eclipses and supermoons, equinox and moving into the space of fall or spring, so much light pouring in and divine love rising exponentially in the space between us…
i re-member this month is celebrated as International Women’s Month and i’d like to close this moon of the lion and the lamb with some essential spirit signposts for pilgrims as we pioneer onward…
- A desire to explore new places, avenues, and opportunities
- A vision of something better
- An ingenuity to try new ideas, inventions, innovations, or enterprises
- A readiness to assume personal responsibility
- A commitment to community, family, a sense of place
- A determination and the courage to never give up
- A sense of independence while realizing our interdependency
blessing the space between us, the journey into our one heart…
The Journey
One day you finally knew
what you had to do, and began,
though the voices around you
kept shouting
their bad advice–
though the whole house
began to tremble
and you felt the old tug
at your ankles.
“Mend my life!”
each voice cried.
But you didn’t stop.
You knew what you had to do,
though the wind pried
with its stiff fingers
at the very foundations,
though their melancholy
was terrible.
It was already late
enough, and a wild night,
and the road full of fallen
branches and stones.
But little by little,
as you left their voices behind,
the stars began to burn
through the sheets of clouds,
and there was a new voice
which you slowly
recognized as your own,
that kept you company
as you strode deeper and deeper
into the world,
determined to do
the only thing you could do–
determined to save
the only life you could save.

to celebrate the first new moon of the astrological year, and a supermoon at that, i make a SHERO Journey to SELF and rest on the dreaming mountain bridge in the tiny space of our one still, silent heart, sacred space of true emptiness where we breathe in and breathe out and dance in essence, in the frothy flow, the sea of love energy uniting heaven above and earth below… come, stand with me in the center of being and let’s dream the new story where singing waters hum in harmony bathing the new world lovingly, peacefully, joyfully, beautifully… building beloved community in the new jerusalem… behold, graceland!
