today’s holi day journey is the quintessential poetic peace pilgrimage, one flowing moment of intoxication peppered with a string of hiccups, of spirits of peace, love and joy transmuting conflict, fear and sadness while carrying our one heart in a continuous blessingway deeper and deeper into incarnating, embodying the all that is…

thank you, thank you, thank you for this moment of grace, this day of pause, this season of dancing in stillness, merging the opposites into a seamless tapestry, a kaleidoscope of rainbow colored images of the many and the one…

dolphin dancing and leaping like waves flowing in the ocean… pulled by love out of my safe cove into the wider ocean of wonder, beauty, grace… i love this journey unfolding in such a mysterious, serendipitous, synchronistic way…

how i love this annual magical ride pulled by shamanic horses of the heart and skysea, our ever present dolphin guides who love taking us into the ocean depths  and space heights where we feel the magnetic  energy of the almost new moon in Capricorn on this day that hums to the tune of presence and calls us to listen and attune to the cosmic frequency calling us home, home to the heart…

let us venture now to the river of joy below the river through that well worn wormhole, the rabbit hole, and encounter a communion of ancestors, so many members of the village impacting our destiny so profoundly… yes, today’s holi day journey is an ancestor blessingway overflowing with real eyes vision, realeyezations flowing from our sister moon about the new world we are breathing in where all our children are smiling in delight as we grow into a communal culture of light turned on by soular power to be our highest and deepest purpose… to fly on the wings of love and to ground ourselves into the roots of belonging always being love, joy, peace and harmony…

breathe in this magical moment, this moment of wonder from our earth mother through our one heart and out to sky father who whispers it back to the great mother who breathes us again  and the seamless cycle of return  flows infinitely through the beyond…

one breath, one moment, one step of always being love…

happiest of trails…

Bodhichitta is our heart—our wounded, softened heart. Right down there in the thick of things, we discover the love that will not die. This love is bodhichitta. It is gentle and warm; it is clear and sharp; it is open and spacious. The awakened heart of bodhichitta is the basic goodness of all beings.

today is one of those oxygen masks days when the need to return to self by breathing into the belly, the wisdom space is a requisite… somehow, i feel it’s so in rhythm with the turn of the wheel as we enter the darkest part of the year in the northern hemisphere, a mystical season, where we may feel the darkness as sanctuary and it may bring up fear and discomfort because of what is unseen which can trigger feelings of  disorientation and danger…

trauma exists here in our innermost caverns as  layers of heartache and as we welcome each of these visitors by opening our heart, we liberate ourselves and the collective…

this sacred sojourn of descent, this magickal mystery tour leads to transformation when we hold the tension and surrender into our softened heart…

may we always come home to the heart, to the garden of peace, being present in the moment, in the presence of the beloved resting in the stillpoint, the unchanging, taking a silent still pregnant pause in the moments of feeling so stretched and uncomfortable right before the crowning… in this moment of presence,  open more fully to birthing the new, surrendering to nature, to love and creating from this sacred space… YES! to full blooming lotushood…

 

feeling in sync with brother sun today

slowing… stilling… listening in a deeper way

floating under waxing full moon into the heart cave

pulsing at the frequency of cosmic compassion wave

blessing the space of grace where we interbe

transmitting lovingkindness wordlessly

~

yes, for this moment, let’s be the space of grace…. smiling to start our internal love engine, let’s reach out  to one another to pass the love around the world and as we breathe in deeply through our one one heart, feel our belly, our core, our heart cave expanding as we chant together…

may we be filled with lovingkindness

may we be well

may we be peaceful and at ease

may we be happy…

~

may we be at peace

may our one heart remain open

may we real-eyes the beauty of our true nature

may we know the astonishing light of our being

may we be a source of healing for all and behold the wonder of each moment…

They are the chosen ones who have surrendered.
Once they were particles of light
now they are the radiant sun.

~ Rumi ~

Holy Synchronicity/Synchronisiddhi!

it’s christmas eve and the moment for the weekly installment of sharing an image that shows you the light of  your being in dark times… last night we traveled through a snowy field to arrive at stonehenge to await the arrival of the sun, today i’m in a snowy field in portalandia taking a sacred pause with my teacher with sacred paws who is so excited by this snowy day and the coming of the son/sun…

This love bug child and I are taking this moment, this beautiful moment to speak only of love, love in this moment, love in every moment…

may our heart stay loving and open when we feel frayed and hurt

may we always include all our relations in love’s vast embrace

may our heart remain pure and kind amidst the muck of life

may virtue and serenity belong to all including our enemies

may our brokenheartedness open our heart ever wider

bringing forth greater love and compassion…

may this holyday season nourish your spirit, nurture your hope, sustain you in the call for justice guided by love and inspire deep peace in the running waves of the ocean…

today is one of those delicious in between times kind of days when yo feel the sense of being perched on a threshold as i was when i snapped this picture high on a hill overlooking Merlin’s cave in Cornwall, sacred site where this magician initiated Arthur in the path of the grail…

a perfect moment to return to his dream cave on the wings of a sea eagle, great spirit’s familiar… to float slowly down landing gently on the shores of the Atlantic right in front of this mythic cave, home to ancient spirits, keepers of the dream…

opening to the power and beauty now breathing us, we enter the dark cave in reverence feeling the way with our heart, seeing with inner vision, graced with a knowing from the guardians of the beyond, we dwell with the spirits soaking in their wisdom…

as we leave to return to ordinary reality, we thank the elements and the directions offering them our devoted service as we wander in wonder on the rainbow trail seeing the world as it truly is… belonging place of breathtaking beauty, beloved space of breath giving life…
