first, an intention for peace…
peace is here
when we want it
peace is here
when we want the health of our people more than global domination,
peace is here
when we want everyone’s prosperity
more than we want to be richer than others,
peace is here
when we want peace more than the illusion of security,
peace is here
peace is here
when we want to move forward more than we want our team to triumph,
peace is here
when we want to get the things we want more than we want the glory,
peace is here
when we want things to be right more than we want the story of being wronged,
peace is here
peace is here
when we want happiness more than we want to win,
peace is here
when we want connection more than we want ambitious achievements,
peace is here
when we want this moment more than we want our future fantasies (that will always fail to satisfy even if they do come true),
peace is here
peace is here
when we want to relax and repair more than we want to defend the story of ourself,
peace is here
when we want to seek understanding more than we want to win the argument,
peace is here
when we want to love more than we want to shield ourself from future grief,
peace is here
peace is here
when we want our sanity more than our reputation,
peace is here
when we want to be loved more than we want to be alone,
peace is here
when want what’s in the interest of all our relations
more than we want what’s in our self-interest
peace is here
when we want to remove the blocks to health more than we want anything else,
peace is here
when we want it
now…

i’m trusting today has been a day of taking joy for you on yet another feast day celebrating the light, a magical moment of eternity when the portal is wide open for our re-membering who we are… radiant suns and receptive moons of our one cosmic heart…
on these upcoming twelve nights of the 12 Days of Christmas, i invite you to join me once again for our annual special pilgrimage with the Caravan of Re-Joy-Sing to honor our transcendent/descendent journey into light, our taking joy in transforming seeds into sprouts and our witnessing these sprouts as dreams coming to us each night for the next 12 nights to the tune of the 12 Days of Christmas…
on the first night of Christmas, my true love (Aries) gave to me, a dream of… on the second night of Christmas, my true love (Taurus) gave to me, a dream of… on the third night of Christmas, my true love (Gemini) gave to me, a dream of… on the fourth night of Christmas, my true love (Cancer) gave to me, a dream of… don’t worry if you are seeing this on the 26th, you can still ask Aries to dream you…
so, you get the idea? each night our dream will be a gift from the 2 mystery schools of the zodiac, the light, guiding us, mapping the route along the rainbow trail as we re-member and re-birth more and more of whom we really and truly are…
i take joy with you as we adventure into dreamtime, re-joy-sing in this oft-quoted salutation from the Italian painter and architect Fra Giovanni (Angelico) in 1513:
~
“I salute you.
There is nothing I can give you which you have not,
but there is much that while I cannot give,
you can take.
No heaven can come to us unless our hearts find rest in it today.
Take heaven.
No peace lies in the future which is not hidden in this present instant.
Take peace.
The gloom of the world is but a shadow. Behind it, yet within our reach, is joy.
Take joy.
And so at this Christmastime,
I greet you, with the prayer
that for you,
now and forever,
the day breaks
and the shadows
flee away.”
