*Be Blessed by the Grace Light*

*Morning Has Broken*

Elviria Hills, Southern Spain, November 2015 

Morning has broken

Our task, to stay nurtured

In no-mind – Allow the rising sun

To illuminate our being

Without the interference of our impatient minds.

 

The wind softly rattles the leaves on the trees

The all-covering morning fog slowly dissipates

 

I can see the ocean in a distance

The horizon a bit undefined

The peach morning sky mixing with that misty morning fog

 

What does it mean to be defined? Refined?

Sharp lines

 

I heard once that words create separation, duality, opposites.

It’s true.

With the pen we try to define things

Put words on things, on the tangible and the intangible.

Yet Oneness, the beauty of life, is as undefinable as it is sensed by the heart

The floating energy within and without is understood with our spirits and soul.

But the mind is impatient and wants to define.

 

It wants to create sharp lines

Say this is this, and that is that.

To define makes it secure.

Makes us secure

It is a survival mechanism, so we will know and can react accordingly – stay alive

The mist sweeps the valley

 

On the matter of one’s need for love, compassion, kindness and a warm touch

That ultimate need to know within our hearts that we share togetherness with a group

To sense that oneness we all crave – within our community

No words can define that need nor the satisfaction when that need is met.

Still,  you stay away

*Autumn Poem for Soul and Psyche*

Autumn Poem for Soul and Psyche

Prologue

Like the tree that loses its leaves

Left exposed

Its branches naked and shy

We too must release

Shed layers

Vulnerability is inevitable

Release like Mother Earth

Let the leaves fall ~ bathe in the west winds ~ cleanse your body mind, your soul, your psyche

Our light grows stronger and stronger the more we let go of heavy burdens.

Fear, anger, self doubt. Let’s harmonize with Mother Nature’s autumn flow, and release ever so effortlessly, resistance free.

-----------------------------------

I.

Shed layers

Shed skin

Shed tears of sorrows past

Shed leaves of irritation

And shells of separation

Yes do it wise one!  It’s time.

In harmony with Mother Nature

Drop old gains and glory

Release your growth

To feed your present story

Don’t hold so tight

Take courage

Lose the grip

Surrender!

You’ve done well

Harvested this cycle’s gifts and blessings

Now it’s time to give thanks and let go!

One two three, release!

Light or heavy

Allow it all be swept away

Into the vortex of time and space

It has served its purpose

It is time to say goodbye

Release it to God

To Source

Bid aDieu

Have heart sweet one  

------------------

II.

Become bare again ~ Lighten your load

Unveil your true self in the process

Allow the growing darkness to comfort you

As the past trickles down your cheek

To support and to hold you, to cover you

As you slowly undress

Those armors must be heavy beautiful one

For years and years

You’ve clad yourself in heavy steel

For protection

I know

And those quills you’ve grown

Through the steel

They can’t defend you either

I’m so sorry

But it is the truth!

You, a beautiful child of Love Universal

You must feel your feelings

O those heavy burdens you carry!

Layers upon layers of pain and grief

Upon armors and armors of hesitant pride

Importance

Stature

Judgment

Self-righteousness

Self-doubt

Self-pity

They have only kept you separated

From your true self

From that spectacular wonder

Of sensing Oneness

Within

Sensing God

Within

As You

Within every single cell

Now let it all go!

All those pains of the past

All those burdens and fake protection

You don’t have to be afraid anymore

I will help you

The  wounds will heal

I promise

From my heart to yours

Feel the miraculous relief

As they drop from your shoulders

The heavy armors

As they hit the floor

And the feeling of emergence sweeps all your senses

You gasp for air

You fill your lungs with the breath of God

The Breath of Grace

The Breath of Love

From underneath all that steel   

Your luminous self has appeared

Radiant, free and blissful

Marvel in the freedom sweet one

Enjoy the lightness of being

Embrace your divinity

I’m still here

I’m with you

All is good

All is well

Enlightenment is yours

*Lightness*

* How exciting Life can be! It doesn't always have to be so, but when you feel the rush of excitement and creativity flowing through your body-mind, emanating from you heart, your soul and spirit in union encouraging you to be who you are and spring forth, become a part of the lighter realms of Life, smell the aroma of all the beautiful colors and taste the landscape with your inner senses ~ WOW! then, then everything stirs and one little ray of sunlight breaking through the February clouds, makes you wanna fly in ecstasy from the knowing, YES, the knowing that brighter days are a head! Just around the corner there's sunshine, green grass, blue skies, fresh rivers and cascading waterfalls, so willing to infuse you with the energy of flow and joy. WONDERFUL! If I could be even just a little bit more grateful for darkness, the enveloping dimness allowing for this sensation of rebirth, I would probably burst!*

*1st/2nd of February*
Brigit's Day ~ Candlemas ~ Imbolc  

There are stirrings within the womb of Mother Earth. Light is quickening* 

The seeds that were planted on Winter Solstice are beginning to sprout. 

We are now midway between the solstice and the gifts of Ostara, so the promise of spring is around the corner. Imbolc means 'in the belly', or 'around the belly', in honor of the swelling belly of  the Earth Mother. I think that is so beautiful*

Today we light a candle for the Celtic Goddess Brigit, the Triple Fire Goddess.  

As for many other pagan Goddesses, today she is also revered as a 

Christian saint.  God~Goddess moves in mysterious ways ;) 

Brigit's three aspects are the Fire of Inspiration as patroness of poetry, 

Fire of the Hearth, as patroness of healing and fertility, and Fire of the Forge, as patroness of smithcraft and martial arts.

She has many sides and faces to her, but she is always associated with fire, and to me that also means courage, and the strength to carry on. In the Northern hemisphere we are starting to feel the heavy burden of a long winter, thankful for all the lessons,  but longing for more light and lightness in Life.  Brigit gives us that extra spark to keep on, not to fall back and give up. 

She is the bringer of hope*

Today I dedicate my candle prayer to Brigit, to ANU the Mother of Goddesses and to the Egyptian Goddess Sekhmet

Live well and be Happy*

*LOVE*
