Happy leap year 2012!. . . Look what showed up in my tea cup this morning. A beautiful spiral . . .An auspicious symbol for a leap year day.
And this. . . on my morning walk. . . Lovely plum blossoms
“Trees are poetry the earth writes into the sky”. ~ Khalil Gibran
” …. this wheel of many parts, that can rise and spin over and over again, full of gorgeous life” ~ Mary Oliver
As I watch raindrops drip from shimmering birch trees, I bid February goodbye.
I love these precious, fleeting moments that open windows into the interior of the sacred. The dance of light and shadow chasing each other across the sky. The magic of spring that awakens us from the deep sleep of winter, stirring the sleeping parts of ourselves into awareness.
“Everyday Goddessing is about sharing magical techniques and sacred wisdom with other beautiful Goddess women. I believe that within every woman there is a goddess, a wise woman, beautiful, creative, powerful, with a deep soul, and that everything we need and are looking for is already inside each of us.” ~ Rose Arizmendi
“I don’t want you to just sit down at the table.
I don’t want you to just eat and be content.
I want you to walk out into the fields
Where the water is shining and the rice has risen.
I want you to stand there far from this white tablecloth.
I want you to fill your hands with mud, like a blessing.”
~ Mary Oliver
Interacting with the landscape can heal us, and
bring us deeper into the mystery of who we are
by restoring our kinship with the Earth
The bird whispered to the tree . . . the tree whispered to the land
Awaken . . . Manifest . . . Bloom
Read the messages written on the land
. . . Signs . . . Portents . . . Omens . . .
Listen to the voices on the wind
The gentle murmur of rain prayers
The rivers carrying blessings to where they are needed
The ongoing conversations between the sea and land
between the visible and invisible worlds
Musings on a 64 degree February day with blue skies and lots of sunshine.
Joy & Blessings to all
