Focus

27 october, 08:09

thoughts and images swirl in my mind...

i follow their trail and try to bring them into focus

without letting them slip out of my grasp

27 october, 08:10

sometimes it's possible to observe them,

to hear and see a multitude of layers with surprising clarity...

but at times my mind seems infantile

in my attempt to grasp what is being shown

27 october, 08:35

and then something becomes crystal clear

and other nuances appear...

27 october, 08:36

how intriguing the stratosphere

that permeates our being

Molten

25th october, 18:23:20

(i believe that is a helicopter flying low

above the sea in front of the moon!)

she looks so mystical & ancient

as she rises from the deep...

it seems that memories of all ages

are etched upon her face...

18:25:06

she mesmerises with
her single hypnotic eye...
i fall into her gaze
and share some of the visions
she has seen...

18:25:48

molten...
she emerges

dripping liquid light
a pool of healing lunar energy
left upon the ocean...

18:26:16

hanging between sea & sky
with such an intensity
i feel the force that pulls the tides...

18:31

like an ember glowing,
ascending into cloud...

18:58:08

she pulls the veil
from across her face
and reveals a golden hue...

18:59:42

somewhere else she’s silver

against a midnight sky

and somewhere she is snowy white

against a sky of blue

19:02:22

she leaves... all that remains is

a lingering trail upon the water,

a moon-path across the waves,

at this moment i could easily follow...

Help with moon rhythms...

24th october, 18:15

A couple of sites to help recognise & understand those rhythms...

Donna Iona Drozda

I came across Donna a little while ago,

she looks at the cycles in relation to our creativity

& encourages us to be gentle with ourselves & grow.

Dana at Mooncircles

whom i have just found.

She has some excellent information about

the rhythms & cycles of the moon.

Take a look at moon astrology in the link at the bottom.

Rhythms...

30th september, 23:16

Do you take much notice

of the rhythms in your life?

Do you keep a journal

or a mental note at least?

15th october, 21:49

Do you see recurring patterns

that move within each phase?

Or feel the tidal energies

that pulse throughout our veins?

16th october, 19:48

Do you seek to glimpse

that flash of intuition?

And look beyond the clouds

to the brightness that is there?

17th october, 19:48

Do you know when you're

most productive?

Or when shadows

might encroach?

18th october, 18:55

Can you sink into those shadows

to search for hidden truths?

To recognise the blessings

and the healing that they bring?

21st october, 21:29

Can you see the wider pattern

that colours all our life?

Do you radiate your beauty

no matter who may see?

23rd october, 18:44

I embrace the gentle rhythm

that flows throughout my life.

And thank you for the

lessons you give me chance to see.

Lady In Red

30th september, 22:41

This was my only view of the harvest moon,

low cloud to the east obscured the moonrise all month.

I waited & waited, then she took me by surprise

& I fluffed the first shot!

30th september, 22:42

Decked in finest evening dress, she made a rapid entrance

and my heart raced.

30th september, 22:47

Although i had my thoughts & shared a silent communion,

it's the words of others that come to mind as i write now...

Annoyingly Chris De Burgh...

I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight...
There's nobody here, it's just you and me...
I'll never for get, the way you look tonight...

30th september, 22:55

But also a favourite poem of mine

by Mel Leavey

sisters of the red moon

we have met before, you and i
somewhen, somewhere.
in time out of time, the space between,
the space where the veil thins and the mist floats across
moonlit oceans.

in the swirling chaos of now,
tendrils of light flicker in the darkness.
reminders of a lost tribe,
of ancient ways where blood was holy
and wisdom shared.

reaching across the chasm of time.
over expanse of space and the shackles of fate
there is hope that in the dreaming
of this and other things, we shall meet again.
somewhen, somewhere.
