What a magical combination ~ Mother Earth and the beautiful music of Kenji Williams. It shows the impact we are having on our beautiful, blue planet.

quote for the day;

” The new myth coming into being through the triple influence of quantum physics, depth psychology and ecology suggests that we are participants in a great cosmic web of life, each one of us indissolubly connected with all others through that invisible field. It is the most insidious of illusions to think that we can achieve a position of dominance in relation to nature, life or each other. In our essence, we are one.” ~Anne Baring

“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

The Hidden Sky

I had to share this incredible video from “The Hidden Sky.”  It is based on the short story “The Masters” by Ursula K. Le Guin. Music and lyrics by Peter Foley ~ directed by Kate Chisholm. ~ Simply Beautiful!

“Science and religion collide in this sophisticated and mythic new musical. At the center of the conflict is Ganil, a young woman whose passionate longing for knowledge leads her on a dangerous journey in pursuit of lost and forbidden truths. With an eclectic score featuring lush choral singing, this compelling tale of spiritual awakening illuminates the complex dialogue between faith and reason.”

quote for the day;  “Our creativity is compost for the Earth”, the highest and best of what we are, feeding the planetary mind and creating fertile soil for those to come.” ~ Rachel Rosenthal

Rain ~ Mind ~ Spirit

Today, the rain washed  over me ~ washed me clean ~ refreshing my mind and spirit.

A light misty rain all day with heavy clouds so near I could reach up and touch them ~ There were brief moments when the sun tried to break through, but the sky quickly swallowed it up again. Sigh … It was definitely a two pot of coffee kind of day!

Earlier, I took a photo of this huge bramble bush near our home and wondered how many small creatures make their home there, in the dense, thick, tangle of brambles! A reminder that I need only to look ~ to find enchantment.

Watching ~ Reflecting ~ Observing how the changing seasons flow over and through me ~The spiral turns once again ~ And as always, I find that nature is my  guide and ultimate teacher.

GREETING

Over the wave-patterned sea floor,
Over the long sun-burnt ridge of the world,
I bid the winds seek you
I bid them cry to you
Night and morning
A name you loved once;
I bid them bring to you
Reed songs, and songs of the small birds –
and sleep.

~ Ella Young (1867 – 1956)

The Road Less Traveled

Earlier today, when I went for a walk this is what I saw, a grassy path leading off into the distance. A path covered in dry leaves, dead tree limbs and autumn brush.

I had no idea the road I had chosen to explore this morning would offer up so many wonderful surprises. As I stood in silence watching the colors shift and change over the landscape, the sun moved slowly overhead creating shadow and light. Such beauty!

Several hours later, as I sit here at my desk before the window and type, edit, ponder and muse. The sun is slowly sinking in the west. It is time to close the windows and draw the blinds. To light candles and reflect on the day … turn inward, and snuggle deep into my favorite chair with a book. xo

thought for the day;

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I–
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference
~ Robert Frost

Reflections & Rain

Raindrops  dripping from branches overhead and reflections at my feet.

Walking in the rain is one of my favorite things to do during this season.  ~ breathing in fresh air ~ beautiful, evocative and ethereal. So magical, these sparkling raindrops falling from the sky!

I relish the time to  just sit quietly, to gather my thoughts, to read, drink my tea and watch the falling, falling rain.

thought for the day;

“It is time for us to kiss the earth again,
It is time to let the leaves rain from the skies,
Let the rich life run to the roots again.”
~ Robinson Jeffers
